26

Hast thou not heardh8085h8804 long agoh7350, how I have doneh6213h8804 it; and of ancienth6924 timesh3117, that I have formedh3335h8804 it? now have I broughth935h8689 it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay wasteh7582h8687 defencedh1219h8803 citiesh5892 into ruinoush5327h8737 heapsh1530. Hast...: or, Hast thou not heard how I have made it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? should I now bring it to be laid waste, and defenced cities to be ruinous heaps?

27

Therefore their inhabitantsh3427h8802 were of smallh7116 powerh3027, they were dismayedh2865h8804 and confoundedh954h8804: they were as the grassh6212 of the fieldh7704, and as the greenh3419 herbh1877, as the grassh2682 on the housetopsh1406, and as corn blastedh7709 beforeh6440 it be grown uph7054. of small...: Heb. short of hand

Because thy rageh7264h8692 against me, and thy tumulth7600, is come uph5927h8804 into mine earsh241, therefore will I puth7760h8804 my hookh2397 in thy noseh639, and my bridleh4964 in thy lipsh8193, and I will turn thee backh7725h8689 by the wayh1870 by which thou camesth935h8804.

31

And the remnanth7604h8737 that is escapedh6413 of the househ1004 of Judahh3063 shall againh3254h8804 take rooth8328 downwardh4295, and bearh6213h8804 fruith6529 upwardh4605: the remnant...: Heb. the escaping of the house of Judah that remaineth

34

By the wayh1870 that he cameh935h8804, by the same shall he returnh7725h8799, and shall not comeh935h8799 into this cityh5892, saithh5002h8803 the LORDh3068.

35

For I will defendh1598h8804 this cityh5892 to saveh3467h8687 it for mine own sake, and for my servanth5650 David'sh1732 sake.

36

Then the angelh4397 of the LORDh3068 went forthh3318h8799, and smoteh5221h8686 in the camph4264 of the Assyriansh804 a hundredh3967 and fourscoreh8084 and fiveh2568 thousandh505: and when they arose earlyh7925h8686 in the morningh1242, behold, they were all deadh4191h8801 corpsesh6297.

So Sennacheribh5576 kingh4428 of Assyriah804 departedh5265h8799, and wenth3212h8799 and returnedh7725h8799, and dwelth3427h8799 at Ninevehh5210.
