2 Chronicles 32:6-8
New English Translation
6 He appointed military officers over the army[a] and assembled them in the square at the city gate. He encouraged them,[b] saying, 7 “Be strong and brave! Don’t be afraid and don’t panic[c] because of the king of Assyria and this huge army that is with him. We have with us one who is stronger than those who are with him.[d] 8 He has with him mere human strength,[e] but the Lord our God is with us to help us and fight our battles!” The army[f] was encouraged by the words of King Hezekiah of Judah.
