2 Kings 18:35-37

Living Bible

³⁵ What god has ever been able to save any nation from my power? So what makes you think the Lord can save Jerusalem?’”

³⁶ But the people on the wall remained silent, for the king had instructed them to say nothing. ³⁷ Then Eliakim (son of Hilkiah) the business manager, and Shebnah the king’s secretary, and Joah (son of Asaph) the historian went to King Hezekiah with their clothes torn and told him what the Assyrian general had said.
