Sennacherib Undermines Hezekiah
9 After this Sennacheribking of Assyriasent his servants to Jerusalemwhile he was32:9 Lit againstbesieging Lachishwith all his forces with him, against Hezekiahking of Judah and against all of Judah who were in Jerusalem, saying, 10 "This is what Sennacheribking of Assyriasays: ‘On what are you trusting that you are staying in Jerusalemunder siege? 11 Is Hezekiahnot misleading you to give yourselves over to die by hunger and by thirst, saying, "The Lord our God will save us from the 32:11 Lit palmhand of the king of Assyria"? 12 Is it not the same Hezekiahwho removed His high places and His altars, and said to Judah and 32:12 Lit Jerusalem, saying,Jerusalem, "You shall worship before one altar, and on it you shall 32:12 Lit offer up in smokeburn incense"? 13 Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of those lands at all able to save their land from my hand? 14 Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed who could save his people from my hand, that your God would be able to save you from my hand? 15 Now then, do not let Hezekiahdeceive you or mislead you like this, and do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to save his people from my hand or from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God save you from my hand?’ "
16 His servants spoke further against the Lord God and against His servant Hezekiah. 17 He also wrote letters to insult the Lord God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, "As the gods of the nations of the lands 32:17 Lit who havehave not saved their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiahwill not save His people from my hand." 18 They called this out with a loud voice in the language of Judah to the people of Jerusalemwho were on the wall, to frighten and terrify them, so that they might take the city. 19 They spoke 32:19 Lit toof the God of Jerusalemas they did against the gods of the peoples of the earth, the work of human hands.
Hezekiah’s Prayer Is Answered
20 But King Hezekiahand Isaiahthe prophet, the son of Amoz, prayed about this and called out to heaven for help. 21 And the Lord sent an angel who destroyed every warrior, commander, and officer in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned 32:21 Lit in shame of facein shame to his own land. And when he had entered the temple of his god, some of his own sons killed him there with the sword. 22 So the Lord saved Hezekiahand the inhabitants of Jerusalemfrom the hand of Sennacheribthe king of Assyriaand from the hand of all others, and 32:22 Another reading is gave them restguided them on every side. 23 And many were bringing gifts to the Lord at Jerusalemand valuable presents to Hezekiahking of Judah; so thereafter he rose in the sight of all nations.
24 In those days Hezekiahbecame 32:24 Lit sick to the point of deathmortally ill; and he prayed to the Lord, and 32:24 Lit Hethe Lord spoke to him and gave him a sign. 25 But Hezekiahdid nothing in return for the benefit 32:25 Lit to Himhe received, because his heart was 32:25 Lit highproud; therefore wrath came upon him and upon Judah and Jerusalem. 26 However, Hezekiah32:26 Lit humbled himself inhumbled the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the Lord did not come on them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Now Hezekiahhad immense riches and honor; and he made for himself treasuries for silver, gold, precious stones, spices, shields, and all kinds of valuable articles, 28 also storehouses for the produce of grain, wine, and oil; stalls for all kinds of cattle, and 32:28 As in ancient versions; MT herds for the stablessheepfolds for the flocks. 29 He made cities for himself and acquired flocks and herds in abundance, because God had given him very great 32:29 Lit possessions; or propertywealth. 30 It was Hezekiahwho stopped the upper outlet of the waters of Gihonand directed them to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiahwas successful in everything that he did. 31 Even in the matter of the messengers of the rulers of Babylon, who were sent to him to inquire about the wonder that had happened in the land; God left him alone only to test him, so that He might know everything that was in his heart.
32 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiahand his deeds of devotion, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiahthe prophet, the son of Amoz, in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 33 So Hezekiah32:33 I.e., diedlay down with his fathers, and they buried him in the 32:33 Or ascent toupper section of the tombs of the sons of David; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalemhonored him at his death. And his son Manassehbecame king in his place.
