2 Kings 19:8-13


Sennacherib Deceives Hezekiah

8 Then Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria fighting against aLibnah, for he had heard that 1the king had set out from bLachish.
9 Then he heard them say concerning Tirhakah king of 1Ethiopia, “Behold, he has come out to fight against you.” So he sent messengers again to Hezekiah saying, 10 “Thus you shall say to Hezekiah king of 1Judah, ‘Do not alet your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, “bJerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” 11 Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands, devoting them to destruction. So will you be delivered? 12 aDid the gods of 1those nations which my fathers brought to ruin deliver them, even bGozan and cHaran and Rezeph and dthe sons of Eden who were in Telassar? 13 aWhere is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, and of Hena and Ivvah?’”
