2 Kings 18:20-22

New King James Version

²⁰ You speak of having plans and power for war; but they are ^[a]mere words. And in whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? ^21 (A)Now look! You are trusting in the staff of this broken reed, Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him. ²² But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the Lord our God,’ is it not He ^(B)whose ^[b]high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and said to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem’?” ’
