2 Kings 19:32-35

32“Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning the king of Assyria: “ ‘He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow here. He will not come before it with shield or build a siege ramp against it.

33By the way that he came he will return; he will not enter this city, declares the Lord.

34I will defend this city and save it, for my sake and for the sake of David my servant.’ ”

35That night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the Assyrian camp. When the people got up the next morning—there were all the dead bodies!
