2 Kings 19:8-14
8Then Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria fighting against 1Libnah, for he had heard that the king had left 2Lachish. 9When he heard them say about Tirhakah king of 3Cush, “Behold, he has come out to fight you,” he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying, 10“This is what you shall say to Hezekiah king of 4Judah: ‘Do not 5let your God in whom you trust deceive you by saying, “6Jerusalem will not be handed over to the king of Assyria.” 11Behold, you yourself have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands, destroying them completely. So will you be saved? 127Did the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed save them: 8Gozan, 9Haran, Rezeph, and 10the sons of Eden who were in Telassar? 1311Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, and of Hena and Ivvah?’”
14Then 12Hezekiah took the 13letter from the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went up to the house of the Lord and 14spread it out before the Lord.
