2 Kings 18:19-21

New American Standard Bible

¹⁹ And Rabshakeh said to them, “Say now to Hezekiah, ‘This is what the great king, the king of Assyria says: “^(A)What is this confidence that you ^[a]have? ²⁰ You say—but they are only ^[b]empty words—‘I have a plan and strength for the war.’ Now on whom have you relied, ^(B)that you have revolted against me? ²¹ Now behold, you have ^[c](C)relied on the ^[d]support of this broken reed, on Egypt; on which if a man leans, it will go into his ^[e]hand and pierce it. That is how Pharaoh king of Egypt is to all who rely on him.
