2 Chronicles 32:15

Compare all

13 Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of other lands? ^aWere the gods of the nations of those lands in any way able to deliver their lands out of my hand?

14 Who was there among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed that could deliver his people from my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you from my ^ahand?

15 Now therefore, ^ado not let Hezekiah deceive you or persuade you like this, and do not believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people from my hand or the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand?’ ”

16 Furthermore, his servants spoke against the Lord God and against His servant Hezekiah.

17 He also wrote letters to revile the Lord God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, ^a“As the gods of the nations of other lands have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my ^bhand.”

18 ^aThen they called out with a loud voice in¹ Hebrew to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten them and trouble them, that they might take the city.

19 And they spoke against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth—^athe work of men’s hands.

Sennacherib’s Defeat and Death

20 ^aNow because of this King Hezekiah and ^bthe prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz, prayed and cried out to heaven.

21 ^aThen the Lord sent an angel who cut down every mighty man of valor, leader, and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned ^bshamefaced to his own land. And when he had gone into the temple of his god, some of his own offspring struck him down with the sword there.
