Isaiah 37:14-20

14Then Hezekiah took the 1letter from the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went up to the house of the Lord and 2spread it out before the Lord. 15Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying, 16“Lord of armies, God of Israel, 3who is enthroned above the cherubim, You are the 4God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. 5You made heaven and earth. 176Incline Your ear, Lord, and hear; open Your eyes, Lord, and see; and 7listen to all the words of Sennacherib, who sent them to 8taunt the living God. 18Truly, Lord, the 9kings of Assyria have laid waste all the countries and their lands, 19and have thrown their gods into the fire, for they were not gods but only the 10work of human hands, wood and stone. So they have 11destroyed them. 20But now Lord, our God, 12save us from his hand, so that 13all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, 14Lord, are God.”
