2 Chronicles 32:2-4

Good News Translation

² When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib intended to attack Jerusalem also, ^3-4 he and his officials decided to cut off the supply of water outside the city in order to keep the Assyrians from having any water when they got near Jerusalem. The officials led a large number of people out and stopped up all the springs, so that no more water flowed out of them.
