H6213 [H8799]
And thus did
H3169
Hezekiah
H3063
throughout all Judah
H6213 [H8799]
, and performed
H2896
that which was good
H3477
and right
H571
and truth
H6440
before
H3068
the LORD
H430
his God.
21
H4639
And in every work
H2490 [H8689]
that he began
H5656
in the service
H1004
of the house
H430
of God
H8451
, and in the law
H4687
, and in the commandments
H1875 [H8800]
, to seek
H430
his God
H6213 [H8804]
, he did
H3824
it with all his heart
H6743 [H8689]
, and prospered.
32
1
H310
After
H1697
these things
H571
, and their establishment
H5576
, Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H935 [H8804]
came
H935 [H8799]
, and entered
H3063
into Judah
H2583 [H8799]
, and encamped
H1219 [H8803]
against the fortified
H5892
cities
H559 [H8799]
, and thought
H1234 [H8800]
to win them for himself.
2
H3169
And when Hezekiah
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H5576
that Sennacherib
H935 [H8804]
had come
H6440
, and that he purposed
H4421
to fight
H3389
against Jerusalem,
3
H3289 [H8735]
He took counsel
H8269
with his princes
H1368
and his mighty men
H5640 [H8800]
to stop
H4325
the waters
H5869
of the fountains
H2351
which were outside
H5892
the city
H5826 [H8799]
: and they helped him.
4
H6908 0
So there was gathered
H7227
many
H5971
people
H6908 [H8735]
together
H5640 [H8799]
, who stopped
H4599
all the fountains
H5158
, and the brook
H7857 [H8802]
that ran
H8432
through the midst
H776
of the land
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H4428
, Why should the kings
H804
of Assyria
H935 [H8799]
come
H4672 [H8804]
, and find
H7227
much
H4325
water?
5
H2388 [H8691]
Also he strengthened
H1129 [H8799]
himself, and built up
H2346
all the wall
H6555 [H8803]
that was broken
H5927 [H8686]
, and raised it up
H4026
to the towers
H312
, and another
H2346
wall
H2351
without
H2388 [H8762]
, and repaired
H4407
Millo
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David
H6213 [H8799]
, and made
H7973
weapons
H4043
and shields
H7230
in abundance.
6
H5414 [H8799]
And he set
H8269
captains
H4421
of war
H5971
over the people
H6908 [H8799]
, and gathered them together
H7339
to him in the street
H8179
of the gate
H5892
of the city
H1696 H3824 [H8762]
, and encouraged
H559 [H8800]
them, saying,
7
H2388 [H8798]
Be strong
H553 [H8798]
and courageous
H3372 [H8799]
, be not afraid
H2865 [H8735]
nor dismayed
H6440
for
H4428
the king
H804
of Assyria
H1995
, nor for all the multitude
H7227
that is with him: for there are more with us than with him:
8
H2220
With him is an arm
H1320
of flesh
H3068
; but with us is the LORD
H430
our God
H5826 [H8800]
to help
H3898 [H8736]
us, and to fight
H4421
our battles
H5971
. And the people
H5564 [H8735]
rested
H1697
themselves upon the words
H3169
of Hezekiah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah.
9
H310
After
H5576
this Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H7971 [H8804]
sent
H5650
his servants
H3389
to Jerusalem
H3923
, (but he himself laid siege against Lachish
H4475
, and all his power
H3169
with him,) to Hezekiah
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H3063
, and to all Judah
H3389
that were at Jerusalem
H559 [H8800]
, saying,
10
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H5576
Sennacherib
H4428
king
H804
of Assyria
H982 [H8802]
, On what do ye trust
H3427 [H8802]
, that ye abide
H4692
in the siege
H3389
in Jerusalem?
11
H3169
Doth not Hezekiah
H5496 [H8688]
persuade
H5414 [H8800]
you to give
H4191 [H8800]
over yourselves to die
H7458
by famine
H6772
and by thirst
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H3068
, The LORD
H430
our God
H5337 [H8686]
shall deliver
H3709
us out of the hand
H4428
of the king
H804
of Assyria?
12
H3169
Hath not the same Hezekiah
H5493 [H8689]
taken away
H1116
his high places
H4196
and his altars
H559 [H8799]
, and commanded
H3063
Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H7812 [H8691]
, Ye shall worship
H6440
before
H259
one
H4196
altar
H6999 [H8686]
, and burn incense upon it?
13
H3045 [H8799]
Know
H1
ye not what I and my fathers
H6213 [H8804]
have done
H5971
to all the people
H776
of other lands
H430
? were the gods
H1471
of the nations
H776
of those lands
H3201 [H8800]
any ways
H3201 [H8804]
able
H5337 [H8687]
to deliver
H776
their lands
H3027
out of my hand?
14
H430
Who was there among all the gods
H1471
of those nations
H1
that my fathers
H2763 [H8689]
utterly destroyed
H3201 [H8804]
, that could
H5337 [H8687]
deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand
H430
, that your God
H3201 [H8799]
should be able
H5337 [H8687]
to deliver
H3027
you out of my hand?
15
H3808
Now therefore let not
H2396
Hezekiah
H5377 [H8686]
deceive
H5496 [H8686]
you, nor persuade
H539 [H8686]
you in this manner, neither yet believe
H433
him: for no god
H1471
of any nation
H4467
or kingdom
H3201 [H8799]
hath been able
H5337 [H8687]
to deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand
H3027
, and out of the hand
H1
of my fathers
H430
: how much less shall your God
H5337 [H8686]
deliver
H3027
you out of my hand?
16
H5650
And his servants
H1696 [H8765]
spoke
H3068
yet more against the LORD
H430
God
H5650
, and against his servant
H3169
Hezekiah.
17
H3789 [H8804]
He wrote
H5612
also letters
H2778 [H8763]
to rail
H3068
at the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel
H559 [H8800]
, and to speak
H559 [H8800]
against him, saying
H430
, As the gods
H1471
of the nations
H776
of other lands
H5337 [H8689]
have not delivered
H5971
their people
H3027
out of my hand
H430
, so shall not the God
H3169
of Hezekiah
H5337 [H8686]
deliver
H5971
his people
H3027
out of my hand.
18
H7121 [H8799]
Then they cried
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice
H3066
in the Jews' speech
H5971
to the people
H3389
of Jerusalem
H2346
that were on the wall
H3372 [H8763]
, to make them afraid
H926 [H8763]
, and to trouble
H3920 [H8799]
them; that they might take
H5892
the city.
19
H1696 [H8762]
And they spoke
H5921
against
H430
the God
H3389
of Jerusalem
H430
, as against the gods
H5971
of the people
H776
of the earth
H4639
, the work
H3027
of the hands
H120
of man.
20
H3169
And for this cause Hezekiah
H4428
the king
H5030
, and the prophet
H3470
Isaiah
H1121
the son
H531
of Amoz
H6419 [H8691]
, prayed
H2199 [H8799]
and cried
H8064
to heaven.
21
H3068
And the LORD
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H4397
an angel
H3582 [H8686]
, who cut off
H1368
all the mighty men
H2428
of valour
H5057
, and the leaders
H8269
and captains
H4264
in the camp
H4428
of the king
H804
of Assyria
H7725 [H8799]
. So he returned
H1322
with shame
H6440
of face
H776
to his own land
H935 [H8799]
. And when he had come
H1004
into the house
H430
of his god
H3329
, they that came forth
H4578
from his own bowels
H5307 [H8689]
slew
H2719
him there with the sword.
