Christian Standard Bible
Hezekiah’s Prayer
14 Hezekiah took(A) the letter(B) from the messengers’ hands, read it, then went up to the Lord’s temple, and spread it out before the Lord.(C) 15 Then Hezekiah prayed before the Lord:
Lord God of Israel, enthroned between the cherubim,(D) you are God—you alone—of all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth.(E) 16 Listen closely, Lord, and hear; open your eyes, Lord, and see.(F) Hear the words that Sennacherib has sent to mock the living God.(G) 17 Lord, it is true that the kings of Assyria have devastated the nations and their lands.(H) 18 They have thrown their gods into the fire, for they were not gods but made by human hands—wood and stone.(I) So they have destroyed them. 19 Now, Lord our God, please save us from his power so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, Lord, are God—you alone.(J)
