35 (A)Then it happened that night that the angel of the Lord went out and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when the rest got up early in the morning, behold, all of [a]the 185,000 were [b]dead. 36 So (B)Sennacherib the king of Assyria departed and [c]returned home, and lived at (C)Nineveh. 37 Then it came about, as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, that [d](D)Adrammelech and Sharezer killed him with the sword; and they escaped to (E)the land of Ararat. And his son (F)Esarhaddon became king in his place.
