5 | So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah. |
6 | Isaiah said to them, Thus shall you tell your master, Thus says Yahweh, Don`t be afraid of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me. | 2Ki 19:5-7 2Ki 22:15-20 |
7 | Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he shall hear news, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land. | Isa 10:16-18 Isa 10:33-18 Isa 10:34-18 Isa 17:13 Isa 17:14 Isa 29:5-8 Isa 30:28-33 Isa 31:8 Isa 31:9 Isa 33:10-12 2Ki 7:6 Jb 4:9 Jb 15:21 Ps 58:9 |
8 | So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish. | 2Ki 19:8 2Ki 19:9 Nm 33:20 Nm 33:21 |
9 | He heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He is come out to fight against you. When he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, | 1Sa 23:27 1Sa 23:28 |
10 | Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Don`t let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. | Isa 36:4 Isa 36:15 Isa 36:20 2Ki 18:5 2Ki 19:10-13 2Ch 32:7 2Ch 32:8 2Ch 32:15-19 Ps 22:8 Mt 27:43 |
11 | Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shall you be delivered? | Isa 37:18 Isa 37:19 Isa 10:7-14 Isa 14:17 Isa 36:18-20 2Ki 17:4-6 2Ki 18:33-35 |
12 | Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed, Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar? | Isa 36:20 Isa 46:5-7 |
13 | Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? | Isa 10:9 Isa 36:19 Jer 49:23 |
14 | Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of Yahweh, and spread it before Yahweh. | 2Ki 19:14 |
15 | Hezekiah prayed to Yahweh, saying, | 1Sa 7:8 1Sa 7:9 2Sa 7:18-29 2Ki 19:15-19 2Ch 14:11 2Ch 20:6-12 Dn 9:3 Dn 9:4 Php 4:6 Php 4:7 Jm 5:13 |
16 | Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, who sits [above] the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. | Isa 6:3 Isa 8:13 2Sa 7:26 Ps 46:7 Ps 46:11 |
17 | Turn your ear, Yahweh, and hear; open your eyes, Yahweh, and behold; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, who has sent to defy the living God. | 2Ch 6:40 Jb 36:7 Ps 17:6 Ps 71:2 Ps 130:1 Ps 130:2 Dn 9:17-19 1Pe 3:12 |

19 | and have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men`s hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them. | Isa 10:9-11 Isa 36:18-20 Isa 46:1 Isa 46:2 Ex 32:20 2Sa 5:21 |
20 | Now therefore, Yahweh our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are Yahweh, even you only. | Isa 42:8 Ex 9:15 Ex 9:16 Jsh 7:8 Jsh 7:9 1Sa 17:45-47 1Ki 8:43 1Ki 18:36 1Ki 18:37 Ps 46:10 Ps 59:13 Ps 67:1 Ps 67:2 Ps 83:17 Ps 83:18 Ezk 36:23 Mal 1:11 |
21 | Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Whereas you have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, | Isa 38:3-6 Isa 58:9 Isa 65:24 2Sa 15:31 2Sa 17:23 2Ki 19:20 2Ki 19:21 Jb 22:27 Ps 91:15 Dn 9:20-23 Ac 4:31 |

23 | Whom have you defied and blasphemed? and against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? [even] against the Holy One of Israel. | Isa 37:10-13 Ex 5:2 2Ki 19:4 2Ki 19:22 2Ch 32:17 Ps 44:16 Ps 73:9 Ps 74:18 Ps 74:23 Rev 13:1-6 |
24 | By your servants have you defied the Lord, and have said, With the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars of it, and the choice fir-trees of it; and I will enter into its farthest height, the forest of its fruitful field; | Isa 37:4 Isa 36:15-20 2Ki 19:22 2Ki 19:23 |
25 | I have dug and drunk water, and with the sole of my feet will I dry up all the rivers of Egypt. | Isa 36:12 1Ki 20:10 2Ki 19:23 2Ki 19:24 |

31 | The remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward. | Isa 1:9 Isa 6:13 Isa 10:20-22 Jer 44:28 |
32 | For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and out of Mount Zion those who shall escape. The zeal of Yahweh of Hosts will perform this. | Isa 37:20 Isa 9:7 Isa 59:17 2Ki 19:31 Jl 2:18 Zc 1:14 |
33 | Therefore thus says Yahweh concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come to this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither shall he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it. | Isa 8:7-10 Isa 10:32-34 Isa 17:12 Isa 17:14 Isa 33:20 2Ki 19:32-35 |

35 | For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake, and for my servant David`s sake. | Isa 31:5 Isa 38:6 2Ki 20:6 |
36 | The angel of Yahweh went forth, and struck in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty-five thousand; and when men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. | Isa 10:12 Isa 10:16-19 Isa 10:33-19 Isa 10:34-19 Isa 30:30-33 Isa 31:8 Isa 33:10-12 Ex 12:23 2Sa 24:16 2Ki 19:35 1Ch 21:12 1Ch 21:16 2Ch 32:21 2Ch 32:22 Ps 35:5 Ps 35:6 Ac 12:23 |
37 | So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and lived at Nineveh. | Isa 37:7 Isa 37:29 Isa 31:9 |
