2 Kings 19:16
LORD{H3068}, bow down{H5186}{(H8685)} thine ear{H241}, and hear{H8085}{(H8798)}: open{H6491}{(H8798)}, LORD{H3068}, thine eyes{H5869}, and see{H7200}{(H8798)}: and hear{H8085}{(H8798)} the words{H1697} of Sennacherib{H5576}, which hath sent{H7971}{(H8804)} him to reproach{H2778}{(H8763)} the living{H2416} God{H430}.

2 Kings 19:18
And have cast{H5414}{(H8804)} their gods{H430} into the fire{H784}: for they were no gods{H430}, but the work{H4639} of men's{H120} hands{H3027}, wood{H6086} and stone{H68}: therefore they have destroyed{H6}{(H8762)} them.
2 Kings 19:19
Now therefore, O LORD{H3068} our God{H430}, I beseech thee, save{H3467}{(H8685)} thou us out of his hand{H3027}, that all the kingdoms{H4467} of the earth{H776} may know{H3045}{(H8799)} that thou art the LORD{H3068} God{H430}, even thou only.

2 Kings 19:22
Whom hast thou reproached{H2778}{(H8765)} and blasphemed{H1442}{(H8765)}? and against whom hast thou exalted{H7311}{(H8689)} thy voice{H6963}, and lifted up{H5375}{(H8799)} thine eyes{H5869} on high{H4791}? even against the Holy{H6918} One of Israel{H3478}.
2 Kings 19:23
By{H3027} thy messengers{H4397} thou hast reproached{H2778}{(H8765)} the Lord{H136}, and hast said{H559}{(H8799)}, With the multitude{H7230} of my chariots{H7393}{(H8675)}{H7393} I am come up{H5927}{(H8804)} to the height{H4791} of the mountains{H2022}, to the sides{H3411} of Lebanon{H3844}, and will cut down{H3772}{(H8799)} the tall{H6967} cedar trees{H730} thereof, and the choice{H4004} fir trees{H1265} thereof: and I will enter{H935}{(H8799)} into the lodgings{H4411} of his borders{H7093}, and into the forest{H3293} of his Carmel{H3760}.
2 Kings 19:24
I have digged{H6979}{(H8804)} and drunk{H8354}{(H8804)} strange{H2114}{(H8801)} waters{H4325}, and with the sole{H3709} of my feet{H6471} have I dried{H2717}{(H8686)} up all the rivers{H2975} of besieged places{H4693}.
2 Kings 19:25
Hast thou not heard{H8085}{(H8804)} long ago{H7350} how I have done{H6213}{(H8804)} it, and of ancient{H6924} times{H3117} that I have formed{H3335}{(H8804)} it? now have I brought{H935}{(H8689)} it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste{H7582}{(H8687)} fenced{H1219}{(H8803)} cities{H5892} into ruinous{H5327}{(H8737)} heaps{H1530}.
2 Kings 19:26
Therefore their inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} were of small{H7116} power{H3027}, they were dismayed{H2865}{(H8804)} and confounded{H954}{(H8799)}; they were as the grass{H6212} of the field{H7704}, and as the green{H3419} herb{H1877}, as the grass{H2682} on the housetops{H1406}, and as corn blasted{H7711} before{H6440} it be grown up{H7054}.
2 Kings 19:27
But I know{H3045}{(H8804)} thy abode{H3427}{(H8800)}, and thy going out{H3318}{(H8800)}, and thy coming in{H935}{(H8800)}, and thy rage{H7264}{(H8692)} against me.
2 Kings 19:28
Because thy rage{H7264}{(H8692)} against me and thy tumult{H7600} is come up{H5927}{(H8804)} into mine ears{H241}, therefore I will put{H7760}{(H8804)} my hook{H2397} in thy nose{H639}, and my bridle{H4964} in thy lips{H8193}, and I will turn thee back{H7725}{(H8689)} by the way{H1870} by which thou camest{H935}{(H8804)}.
2 Kings 19:29
And this shall be a sign{H226} unto thee, Ye shall eat{H398}{(H8800)} this year{H8141} such things as grow{H5599} of themselves, and in the second{H8145} year{H8141} that which springeth{H7823} of the same; and in the third{H7992} year{H8141} sow{H2232}{(H8798)} ye, and reap{H7114}{(H8798)}, and plant{H5193}{(H8798)} vineyards{H3754}, and eat{H398}{(H8798)} the fruits{H6529} thereof.
2 Kings 19:30
And the remnant{H7604}{(H8737)} that is escaped{H6413} of the house{H1004} of Judah{H3063} shall yet again{H3254}{(H8804)} take root{H8328} downward{H4295}, and bear{H6213}{(H8804)} fruit{H6529} upward{H4605}.
2 Kings 19:31
For out of Jerusalem{H3389} shall go forth{H3318}{(H8799)} a remnant{H7611}, and they that escape{H6413} out of mount{H2022} Zion{H6726}: the zeal{H7068} of the LORD{H3068} of hosts{(H8675)}{H6635} shall do{H6213}{(H8799)} this.
2 Kings 19:32
Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} concerning the king{H4428} of Assyria{H804}, He shall not come{H935}{(H8799)} into this city{H5892}, nor shoot{H3384}{(H8686)} an arrow{H2671} there, nor come before{H6923}{(H8762)} it with shield{H4043}, nor cast{H8210}{(H8799)} a bank{H5550} against it.
2 Kings 19:33
By the way{H1870} that he came{H935}{(H8799)}, by the same shall he return{H7725}{(H8799)}, and shall not come{H935}{(H8799)} into this city{H5892}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}.
2 Kings 19:34
For I will defend{H1598}{(H8804)} this city{H5892}, to save{H3467}{(H8687)} it, for mine own sake, and for my servant{H5650} David's{H1732} sake.
2 Kings 19:35

2 Kings 19:36
So Sennacherib{H5576} king{H4428} of Assyria{H804} departed{H5265}{(H8799)}, and went{H3212}{(H8799)} and returned{H7725}{(H8799)}, and dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} at Nineveh{H5210}.
2 Kings 19:37
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping{H7812}{(H8693)} in the house{H1004} of Nisroch{H5268} his god{H430}, that Adrammelech{H152} and Sharezer{H8272} his sons{H1121} smote{H5221}{(H8689)} him with the sword{H2719}: and they escaped{H4422}{(H8738)} into the land{H776} of Armenia{H780}. And Esarhaddon{H634} his son{H1121} reigned{H4427}{(H8799)} in his stead.
