2 Kings 19:8-13

Sennacherib Defies the Lord

8The Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria fighting against aLibnah, for he heard that the king had left bLachish. 9 cNow the king heard concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, “Behold, he has set out to fight against you.” So he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying, 10“Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God din whom you trust deceive you by promising that eJerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 11Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, devoting them to destruction. And shall you be delivered? 12 fHave the gods of the nations delivered them, the nations that my fathers destroyed, gGozan, hHaran, Rezeph, and the people of iEden who were in Telassar? 13 jWhere is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?’”
