You have made heaven and earth. 17 (B)Incline Your ear, O Lord, and hear; open Your eyes, O Lord, and see; and (C)hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to reproach the living God. 18 Truly, Lord, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations and their (D)lands, 19 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were (E)not gods, but the work of men’s hands—wood and stone. Therefore they destroyed them. 20 Now therefore, O Lord our God, (F)save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may (G)know that You are the Lord, You alone.”
