After
H1697
these things,
H571
and this faithfulness,
H5576
Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H935
came,
H935
and entered
H3063
into Judah,
H2583
and encamped
H1219
against the fortified
H5892
cities,
H559
and thought
H1234
to win them for himself.
2
H3169
When Hezekiah
H7200
saw
H5576
that Sennacherib
H935
had come,
H6440
and that he was purposed
H4421
to fight
H3389
against Jerusalem,
3
H3289
he took counsel
H8269
with his princes
H1368
and his mighty men
H5640
to stop
H4325
the waters
H5869
of the springs
H2351
which were outside
H5892
of the city;
H5826
and they helped him.
4
H7227
So many
H5971
people
H6908
gathered
H6908
together,
H5640
and they stopped
H4599
all the springs,
H5158
and the brook
H7857
that flowed
H8432
through the midst
H776
of the land,
H559
saying,
H4428
"Why should the kings
H804
of Assyria
H935
come,
H4672
and find
H7227
much
H4325
water?"
5
H2388
He took courage,
H1129
and built up
H2346
all the wall
H6555
that was broken
H5927
down, and raised it up
H4026
to the towers,
H312
and the other
H2346
wall
H2351
outside,
H2388
and strengthened
H4407
Millo
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David,
H6213
and made
H7973
weapons
H4043
and shields
H7230
in abundance.
6
H5414
He set
H8269
captains
H4421
of war
H5971
over the people,
H6908
and gathered them together
H7339
to him in the broad
H8179
place at the gate
H5892
of the city,
H1696
and spoke
H3824
comfortably
H559
to them, saying,
7
H2388
"Be strong
H553
and courageous,
H3372
don't be afraid
H2865
nor dismayed
H6440
for
H4428
the king
H804
of Assyria,
H1995
nor for all the multitude
H7227
who is with him; for there is a greater with us than with him.
8
H2220
With him is an arm
H1320
of flesh;
H3068
but with us is Yahweh
H430
our God
H5826
to help
H3898
us, and to fight
H4421
our battles."
H5971
The people
H5564
rested
H1697
themselves on the words
H3169
of Hezekiah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah.
9
H310
After
H5576
this, Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H7971
sent
H5650
his servants
H3389
to Jerusalem,
H3923
(now he was before Lachish,
H4475
and all his power
H3169
with him), to Hezekiah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah,
H3063
and to all Judah
H3389
who were at Jerusalem,
H559
saying,
10
H559
Thus says
H5576
Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria,
H982
"In whom do you trust,
H3427
that you remain
H4692
under siege
H3389
in Jerusalem?
11
H3169
Doesn't Hezekiah
H5496
persuade
H5414
you, to give
H4191
you over to die
H7458
by famine
H6772
and by thirst,
H559
saying,
H3068
‘Yahweh
H430
our God
H5337
will deliver
H3709
us out of the hand
H4428
of the king
H804
of Assyria?'
12
H3169
Hasn't the same Hezekiah
H5493
taken away
H1116
his high places
H4196
and his altars,
H559
and commanded
H3063
Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem,
H559
saying,
H7812
‘You shall worship
H6440
before
H259
one
H4196
altar,
H6999
and on it you shall burn incense?'
13
H3045
Don't you know
H1
what I and my fathers
H6213
have done
H5971
to all the peoples
H776
of the lands?
H430
Were the gods
H1471
of the nations
H776
of the lands
H3201
in any way
H3201
able
H5337
to deliver
H776
their land
H3027
out of my hand?
14
H430
Who was there among all the gods
H1471
of those nations
H1
which my fathers
H2763
utterly destroyed,
H3201
that could
H5337
deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand,
H430
that your God
H3201
should be able
H5337
to deliver
H3027
you out of my hand?
15
H3808
Now therefore don't
H2396
let Hezekiah
H5377
deceive
H5496
you, nor persuade
H539
you in this way, neither believe
H433
him; for no god
H1471
of any nation
H4467
or kingdom
H3201
was able
H5337
to deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand,
H3027
and out of the hand
H1
of my fathers.
H430
How much less will your God
H5337
deliver
H3027
you out of my hand?"
16
H5650
His servants
H1696
spoke
H3068
yet more against Yahweh
H430
God,
H5650
and against his servant
H3169
Hezekiah.
17
H3789
He also wrote
H5612
letters
H2778
insulting
H3068
Yahweh,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel,
H559
and to speak
H559
against him, saying,
H430
"As the gods
H1471
of the nations
H776
of the lands,
H5337
which have not delivered
H5971
their people
H3027
out of my hand,
H430
so shall the God
H3169
of Hezekiah
H5337
not deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand."
18
H7121
They cried
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice
H3066
in the Jews' language
H5971
to the people
H3389
of Jerusalem
H2346
who were on the wall,
H3372
to frighten
H926
them, and to trouble
H3920
them; that they might take
H5892
the city.
19
H1696
They spoke
H5921
of
H430
the God
H3389
of Jerusalem,
H430
as of the gods
H5971
of the peoples
H776
of the earth,
H4639
which are the work
H120
of men's
H3027
hands.
20
H3169
Hezekiah
H4428
the king,
H3470
and Isaiah
H5030
the prophet
H1121
the son
H531
of Amoz,
H6419
prayed
H2199
because of this, and cried
H8064
to heaven.
21
H3068
Yahweh
H7971
sent
H4397
an angel,
H3582
who cut off
H1368
all the mighty men
H2428
of valor,
H5057
and the leaders
H8269
and captains,
H4264
in the camp
H4428
of the king
H804
of Assyria.
H7725
So he returned
H1322
with shame
H6440
of face
H776
to his own land.
H935
When he had come
H1004
into the house
H430
of his god,
H3329
those who came forth
H4578
from his own bowels
H5307
killed
H2719
him there with the sword.
22
H3068
Thus Yahweh
H3467
saved
H3169
Hezekiah
H3427
and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem
H3027
from the hand
H5576
of Sennacherib
H4428
the king
H804
of Assyria,
H3027
and from the hand
H5095
of all others, and guided
H5439
them on every side.
23
H7227
Many
H935
brought
H4503
gifts
H3068
to Yahweh
H3389
to Jerusalem,
H4030
and precious
H3169
things to Hezekiah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah;
H5375
so that he was exalted
H5869
in the sight
H1471
of all nations
H310
from thenceforth.
24
H3117
In those days
H3169
Hezekiah
H2470
was sick
H4191
even to death:
H6419
and he prayed
H3068
to Yahweh;
H559
and he spoke
H5414
to him, and gave
H4159
him a sign.
25
H3169
But Hezekiah
H7725
didn't render again
H1576
according to the benefit
H3820
done to him; for his heart
H1361
was lifted up:
H7110
therefore there was wrath
H3063
on him, and on Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem.
26
H3169
Notwithstanding Hezekiah
H3665
humbled
H1363
himself for the pride
H3820
of his heart,
H3427
both he and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem,
H7110
so that the wrath
H3068
of Yahweh
H935
didn't come
H3117
on them in the days
H3169
of Hezekiah.
27
H3169
Hezekiah
H3966
had exceeding
H7235
much
H6239
riches
H3519
and honor:
H6213
and he provided
H214
him treasuries
H3701
for silver,
H2091
and for gold,
H3368
and for precious
H68
stones,
H1314
and for spices,
H4043
and for shields,
H2532
and for all kinds of goodly
H3627
vessels;
28
H4543
storehouses
H8393
also for the increase
H1715
of grain
H8492
and new wine
H3323
and oil;
H723
and stalls
H929
for all kinds of animals,
H5739
and flocks
H220
in folds.
29
H6213
Moreover he provided
H5892
him cities,
H4735
and possessions
H6629
of flocks
H1241
and herds
H7230
in abundance;
H430
for God
H5414
had given
H3966
him very
H7227
much
H7399
substance.
30
H3169
This same Hezekiah
H5640
also stopped
H5945
the upper
H4161
spring
H1521
of the waters of Gihon,
H3474
and brought them straight
H4295
down
H4628
on the west side
H5892
of the city
H1732
of David.
H3169
Hezekiah
H6743
prospered
H4639
in all his works.
31
H3651
However
H3887
concerning the ambassadors
H8269
of the princes
H894
of Babylon,
H7971
who sent
H1875
to him to inquire
H4159
of the wonder
H776
that was done in the land,
H430
God
H5800
left
H5254
him, to try
H3045
him, that he might know
H3824
all that was in his heart.
32
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H3169
of Hezekiah,
H2617
and his good
H3789
deeds, behold, they are written
H2377
in the vision
H3470
of Isaiah
H5030
the prophet
H1121
the son
H531
of Amoz,
H5612
in the book
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H3478
and Israel.
33
H3169
Hezekiah
H7901
slept
H1
with his fathers,
H6912
and they buried
H4608
him in the ascent
H6913
of the tombs
H1121
of the sons
H1732
of David:
H3063
and all Judah
H3427
and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem
H6213
did him
H3519
honor
H4194
at his death.
H4519
Manasseh
H1121
his son
H4427
reigned in his place.
