22But ifH3588 you sayH559 to me, ‘We trustH982 in the LordH3068 our GodH430,’ is it not He whoseH834 highH1116 placesH1116 and 1whose altarsH4196 HezekiahH2396 has takenH5493 awayH5493, and has saidH559 to JudahH3063 and to JerusalemH3389, ‘You shall worshipH7812 beforeH6440 thisH2088 altarH4196 in JerusalemH3389’? 23NowH6258 therefore, 2comeH4994, makeH6148 a bargainH6148 with my masterH113 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and I will giveH5414 you two thousandH505 horsesH5483, ifH518 you are ableH3201 on your part to setH5414 ridersH7392 on them. 24HowH349 then can you 3repulseH7725H6440 oneH259 4officialH6346 of the leastH6996 of my master’sH113 servantsH5650, and 5relyH982 on EgyptH4714 for chariotsH7393 and for horsemenH6571? 25Have I nowH6258 comeH5927 up 6withoutH1107 the Lord’sH3068 approval againstH5921 thisH2088 placeH4725 to destroyH7843 it? The LordH3068 saidH559 to me, ‘GoH5927 up againstH5921 thisH2088 landH776 and destroyH7843 it.’”’”
