Isaiah 37:5-7
English Standard Version
5 When the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah, 6 Isaiah said to them, “Say to your master, ‘Thus says the Lord: Do not be afraid because of the words that you have heard, with which the young men of the king of Assyria have reviled me. 7 Behold, (A)I will put a spirit in him, so that (B)he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land, and (C)I will make him fall by the sword in his own land.’”

Isaiah Responds to Hezekiah
6 “Here is what to tell your master,” Isaiah told them. “This is what the Lord says: ‘Don’t be afraid of the words you’ve heard—those words with which the underlings of the king of Assyria have insulted me. 7 Watch this! I’m going to place an attitude[a] within him,[b] so that when he hears a certain report, he’ll return to his own country. Then I’ll have him cut down by the sword in his own land.”[c]
