Isaiah 37:9-13
English Standard Version
9 Now the king heard concerning Tirhakah king of (A)Cush,[a] “He has set out to fight against you.” And when he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, 10 “Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah: (B)‘Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you by promising that Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 11 Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, devoting them to destruction. And shall you be delivered? 12 (C)Have the gods of the nations delivered them, the nations that my fathers destroyed, (D)Gozan, (E)Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Telassar? 13 (F)Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?’”
