16 aBut for this purpose I have raised you up, to show you my power, so bthat my name may be proclaimed in all the earth. 17 cYou are still exalting yourself against my people and will not let them go.

Isaiah 37:26-27

26 d“‘Have you not heard
that I determined it long ago?
I planned from days of old
what now I bring to pass,
that you should make fortified cities
crash into heaps of ruins,
27while their inhabitants, shorn of strength,
are dismayed and confounded,
and have become like plants of the field
and like tender grass,
like grass on the housetops,
blighted
Some Hebrew manuscripts and 2 Kings 19:26; most Hebrew manuscripts  like a field
before it is grown.

20 lI have given him the land of Egypt as his payment for which he labored, because they worked for me, declares the Lord God.
