V.1 After 310 these things, 1697 and the establishment 571 thereof, Sennacherib 5576 king 4428 of Assyria 804 came, 935- 1 and entered 935-4 into Judah, 3063 and encamped 2583-4 against the fenced 1219-7 cities, 5892 and thought 559-4 to win 1234-2 them for himself.

32:2 And when Hezekiah 3169 saw 7200-4 that Sennacherib 5576 was come, 935-1 and that he was purposed 6440 to fight 4421 against Jerusalem, 3389

32:3 He took counsel 3289-11 with his princes 8269 and his mighty men 1368 to stop 5640-2 the waters 4325 of the fountains 5869 which [were] without 2351 the city: 5892 and they did help 5826-4 him.

32:4 So there was gathered much 7227 people 5971 together, 6908-11 who stopped 5640-4 all the fountains, 4599 and the brook 5158 that ran 7857-6 through the midst 8432 of the land, 776 saying, 559-2 Why should the kings 4428 of Assyria 804 come, 935-4 and find 4672-1 much 7227 water? 4325

32:5 Also he strengthened 2388-101 himself, and built up 1129-4 all the wall 2346 that was broken, 6555-7 and raised [it] up 5927-55 to the towers, 4026 and another 312 wall 2346 without, 2351 and repaired 2388-17 Millo 4407 [in] the city 5892 of David, 1732 and made 6213-4 darts 7973 and shields 4043 in abundance. 7230

32:6 And he set 5414-4 captains 8269 of war 4421 over the people, 5971 and gathered them together 6908-4 to him in the street 7339 of the gate 8179 of the city, 5892 and spake 1696-17 comfortably 3824 to them, saying, 559-2

32:7 Be strong 2388-3 and courageous, 553-3 be not afraid 3372-4 nor dismayed 2865-11 for 6440 the king 4428 of Assyria, 804 nor for 6440 all the multitude 1995 that [is] with him: for [there be] more 7227 with us than with him:

32:8 With him [is] an arm 2220 of flesh; 1320 but with us [is] the LORD 3068 our God 430 to help 5826-2 us, and to fight 3898-9 our battles. 4421 And the people 5971 rested 5564-11 themselves upon the words 1697 of Hezekiah 3169 king 4428 of Judah. 3063

32:9 After 310 this did Sennacherib 5576 king 4428 of Assyria 804 send 7971-1 his servants 5650 to Jerusalem, 3389 (but he [himself laid siege] against Lachish, 3923 and all his power 4475 with him,) unto Hezekiah 3169 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 and unto all Judah 3063 that [were] at Jerusalem, 3389 saying, 559-2

32:10 Thus saith 559-1 Sennacherib 5576 king 4428 of Assyria, 804 Whereon do ye trust, 982-6 that ye abide 3427-6 in the siege 4692 in Jerusalem? 3389

32:11 Doth not Hezekiah 3169 persuade 5496-56 you to give 5414-2 over yourselves to die 4191-2 by famine 7458 and by thirst, 6772 saying, 559-2 The LORD 3068 our God 430 shall deliver 5337-55 us out of the hand 3709 of the king 4428 of Assyria? 804

32:12 Hath not the same Hezekiah 3169 taken away 5493-52 his high places 1116 and his altars, 4196 and commanded 559-4 Judah 3063 and Jerusalem, 3389 saying, 559-2 Ye shall worship 7812-101 before 6440 one 259 altar, 4196 and burn incense 6999-55 upon it?

32:13 Know 3045-4 ye not what I and my fathers 1 have done 6213-1 unto all the people 5971 of [other] lands? 776 were the gods 430 of the nations 1471 of those lands 776 any ways 3201-2 able 3201-1 to deliver 5337-53 their lands 776 out of mine hand? 3027

32:14 Who [was there] among all the gods 430 of those nations 1471 that my fathers 1 utterly destroyed, 2763-52 that could 3201-1 deliver 5337-53 his people 5971 out of mine hand, 3027 that your God 430 should be able 3201-4 to deliver 5337-53 you out of mine hand? 3027

32:15 Now therefore let not 408 Hezekiah 2396 deceive 5377-55 you, nor 408 persuade 5496-55 you on this manner, neither 408 yet believe 539-55 him: for no 3808 god 433 of any nation 1471 or kingdom 4467 was able 3201-4 to deliver 5337-53 his people 5971 out of mine hand, 3027 and out of the hand 3027 of my fathers: 1 how much less 3808 shall your God 430 deliver 5337-55 you out of mine hand? 3027

32:16 And his servants 5650 spake 1696-14 yet [more] against the LORD 3068 God, 430 and against his servant 5650 Hezekiah. 3169

32:17 He wrote 3789-1 also letters 5612 to rail 2778-15 on the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 and to speak 559-2 against him, saying, 559-2 As the gods 430 of the nations 1471 of [other] lands 776 have not delivered 5337-52 their people 5971 out of mine hand, 3027 so shall not the God 430 of Hezekiah 3169 deliver 5337-55 his people 5971 out of mine hand. 3027

32:18 Then they cried 7121-4 with a loud 1419 voice 6963 in the Jews' speech 3066 unto the people 5971 of Jerusalem 3389 that [were] on the wall, 2346 to affright 3372-15 them, and to trouble 926-15 them; that they might take 3920-4 the city. 5892

32:19 And they spake 1696-17 against the God 430 of Jerusalem, 3389 as against 5921 the gods 430 of the people 5971 of the earth, 776 [which were] the work 4639 of the hands 3027 of man. 120

32:20 And for this [cause] Hezekiah 3169 the king, 4428 and the prophet 5030 Isaiah 3470 the son 1121 of Amoz, 531 prayed 6419-101 and cried 2199-4 to heaven. 8064

32:21 And the LORD 3068 sent 7971-4 an angel, 4397 which cut off 3582-55 all the mighty men 1368 of valour, 2428 and the leaders 5057 and captains 8269 in the camp 4264 of the king 4428 of Assyria. 804 So he returned 7725-4 with shame 1322 of face 6440 to his own land. 776 And when he was come 935-4 into the house 1004 of his god, 430 they that came forth 3329 of his own bowels 4578 slew 5307-52 him there with the sword. 2719

32:22 Thus the LORD 3068 saved 3467-55 Hezekiah 3169 and the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem 3389 from the hand 3027 of Sennacherib 5576 the king 4428 of Assyria, 804 and from the hand 3027 of all [other], and guided 5095-17 them on every side. 5439

32:23 And many 7227 brought 935-56 gifts 4503 unto the LORD 3068 to Jerusalem, 3389 and presents 4030 to Hezekiah 3169 king 4428 of Judah: 3063 so that he was magnified 5375-11 in the sight 5869 of all nations 1471 from thenceforth. 310

32:24 In those days 3117 Hezekiah 3169 was sick 2470-1 to the death, 4191-2 and prayed 6419-101 unto the LORD: 3068 and he spake 559-4 unto him, and he gave 5414-1 him a sign. 4159

32:25 But Hezekiah 3169 rendered not again 7725-52 according to the benefit 1576 [done] unto him; for his heart 3820 was lifted up: 1361-1 therefore there was wrath 7110 upon him, and upon Judah 3063 and Jerusalem. 3389

32:26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah 3169 humbled 3665-11 himself for the pride 1363 of his heart, 3820 [both] he and the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem, 3389 so that the wrath 7110 of the LORD 3068 came 935-1 not upon them in the days 3117 of Hezekiah. 3169

32:27 And Hezekiah 3169 had exceeding 3966 much 7235-53 riches 6239 and honour: 3519 and he made 6213-1 himself treasuries 214 for silver, 3701 and for gold, 2091 and for precious 3368 stones, 68 and for spices, 1314 and for shields, 4043 and for all manner of pleasant 2532 jewels; 3627

32:28 Storehouses 4543 also for the increase 8393 of corn, 1715 and wine, 8492 and oil; 3323 and stalls 723 for all manner of beasts, 929 929 and cotes 220 for flocks. 5739

32:29 Moreover he provided 6213-1 him cities, 5892 and possessions 4735 of flocks 6629 and herds 1241 in abundance: 7230 for God 430 had given 5414-1 him substance 7399 very 3966 much. 7227

32:30 This same Hezekiah 3169 also stopped 5640-1 the upper 5945 watercourse 4161 4325 of Gihon, 1521 and brought it straight 3474-17 down 4295 to the west side 4628 of the city 5892 of David. 1732 And Hezekiah 3169 prospered 6743-55 in all his works. 4639

32:31 Howbeit 3651 in [the business of] the ambassadors 3887- 56 of the princes 8269 of Babylon, 894 who sent 7971-18 unto him to enquire 1875-2 of the wonder 4159 that was [done] in the land, 776 God 430 left 5800-1 him, to try 5254-15 him, that he might know 3045-2 all [that was] in his heart. 3824

32:32 Now the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Hezekiah, 3169 and his goodness, 2617 behold, they [are] written 3789-7 in the vision 2377 of Isaiah 3470 the prophet, 5030 the son 1121 of Amoz, 531 [and] in the book 5612 of the kings 4428 of Judah 3063 and Israel. 3478
