Isaiah 36:15-20

NSB(i) 15 »‘Do not let Hezekiah get you to trust Jehovah by saying: ‘Jehovah will certainly rescue us, and this city will not be put under the control of the king of Assyria. 16 »‘Do not listen to Hezekiah, because this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me! Come out, and give yourselves up to me! Everyone will eat from his own grapevine and fig tree and drink from his own cistern. 17 »‘Then I will come and take you away to a country like your own. It is a country with grain and new wine, a country with bread and vineyards. 18 »‘Do not let Hezekiah mislead you by saying to you: ‘Jehovah will rescue us. Did any of the gods of the nations rescue their countries from the king of Assyria? 19 »‘Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Did they rescue Samaria from my control? 20 »‘Did the gods of these countries indeed rescue them from my control? Could Jehovah then rescue Jerusalem from my control?’«
