Isaiah 36:8-10

Contemporary English Version

⁸ The king of Assyria wants to make a bet with you people! He will give you 2,000 horses, if you have enough troops to ride them. ⁹ How could you even defeat our lowest ranking officer, when you have to depend on Egypt for chariots and cavalry? ¹⁰ Don't forget that it was the Lord who sent me here with orders to destroy your nation!
