¹³ “Do you not know what I and my predecessors have done to all the peoples of the other lands? Were the gods of those nations ever able to deliver their land from my hand?^{(A) 14} Who of all the gods of these nations that my predecessors destroyed has been able to save his people from me? How then can your god deliver you from my hand? ¹⁵ Now do not let Hezekiah deceive^(B) you and mislead you like this. Do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to deliver^(C) his people from my hand or the hand of my predecessors.^(D) How much less will your god deliver you from my hand!”
