Isaiah 37:12
Compare all
10 “Thus you shall speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying: ‘Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, “Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”
11 Look! You have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands by utterly destroying them; and shall you be delivered?
12 Have the agods of the nations delivered those whom my fathers have destroyed, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Telassar?  
13 Where is the king of aHamath, the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah?’ ”  
14 And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord.
15 Then Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying:
16 “O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, the One who dwells between the cherubim, You are God, You aalone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.  
17 aIncline Your ear, O Lord, and hear; open Your eyes, O Lord, and see; and bhear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to reproach the living God.  
18 Truly, Lord, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations and their alands,  
19 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were anot gods, but the work of men’s hands—wood and stone. Therefore they destroyed them.  
20 Now therefore, O Lord our God, asave us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may bknow that You are the Lord, You alone.”  

The Word of the Lord Concerning Sennacherib

21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says the Lord God of Israel, ‘Because you have prayed to Me against Sennacherib king of Assyria,
22 this is the word which the Lord has spoken concerning him:
“The virgin, the daughter of Zion,
Has despised you, laughed you to scorn;
The daughter of Jerusalem
Has shaken her head behind your back!
23 “Whom have you reproached and blasphemed?
Against whom have you raised your voice,
And lifted up your eyes on high?
Against the Holy One of Israel.
24 By your servants you have reproached the Lord,
And said, ‘By the multitude of my chariots
I have come up to the height of the mountains,
To the limits of Lebanon;
I will cut down its tall cedars
And its choice cypress trees;
I will enter its farthest height,
To its fruitful forest.
25 I have dug and drunk water,
And with the soles of my feet I have dried up
All the brooks of1 defense.’
