2 Chronicles 32:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ The Assyrian king’s servants continued to make fun of the Lord God and his servant Hezekiah. ¹⁷ He wrote other letters insulting the Lord God of Israel, defying him by saying, “Just as the gods of the nations in other countries couldn’t rescue their people from my power, Hezekiah’s god won’t be able to rescue his people from my power.” ¹⁸ Then they shouted loudly in Hebrew^[a] at the people of Jerusalem gathered on the wall, in an attempt to frighten and demoralize them, in order to capture the city.
