Then the commander stood and called out in Hebrew, "Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria! This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you. He cannot deliver you! Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, 'The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.' "
Then the commander stood and called out in Hebrew
2 Chronicles 32:18-19 Then they called out in Hebrew to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to terrify them and make them afraid in order to capture the city. They spoke about the God of Jerusalem as they did about the gods of the other peoples of the world--the work of human hands.
Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Isaiah 37:1-4 When King Hezekiah heard this, he tore his clothes and put on sackcloth and went into the temple of the LORD. He sent Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the secretary, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz. They told him, "This is what Hezekiah says: This day is a day of distress and rebuke and disgrace, as when children come to the moment of birth and there is no strength to deliver them. It may be that the LORD your God will hear the words of the field commander, whom his master, the king of Assyria, has sent to ridicule the living God, and that he will rebuke him for the words the LORD your God has heard. Therefore pray for the remnant that still survives."
Do not let Hezekiah deceive you
2 Chronicles 32:15 "Now do not let Hezekiah deceive you and mislead you like this. Do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to deliver his people from my hand or the hand of my predecessors. How much less will your god deliver you from my hand!"
The LORD will surely deliver us
Psalm 3:2-3 Many are saying of me, "God will not deliver him." But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
Psalm 3:7 Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria
Isaiah 37:10 "Say to Hezekiah king of Judah: 'Do not let the god you depend on deceive you when he says, 'Jerusalem will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.' "
