1. After [these] things, and their establishment, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fortified cities, and thought to win them for himself.
2. And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come, and that he purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
3. He took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which [were] without the city and they helped him.
4. So there were assembled many people, who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
5. Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall that was broken, and raised [it] up to the towers, and another wall without, and repaired Millo [in] the city of David, and made darts and shields in abundance.
6. And he set captains of war over the people, and assembled them to him in the street of the gate of the city, and encouraged them, saying,
7. Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that [is] with him for [there are] more with us than with him
8. With him [is] an arm of flesh; but with us [is] the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
9. After this Sennacherib king of Assyria sent his servants to Jerusalem, (but he [himself laid siege] against Lachish, and all his power with him,) to Hezekiah king of Judah, and to all Judah that [were] at Jerusalem, saying,
10. Thus saith Sennacherib king of Assyria, On what do ye trust, that ye abide in the siege in Jerusalem?
11. Doth not Hezekiah persuade you to give over yourselves to die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God will deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
12. Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and burn incense upon it?
13. Know ye not what I and my fathers have done to all the people of [other] lands? were the gods of the nations of those lands any ways able to deliver their lands out of my hand?
14. Who [was there] among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of my hand?
15. Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you in this manner, neither yet believe him for no god of any nation or kingdom hath been able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers how much less shall your God deliver you out of my hand?
16. And his servants spoke yet [more] against the LORD God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
17. He wrote also letters to rail at the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands have not delivered their people out of my hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of my hand.
18. Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' speech to the people of Jerusalem that [were] on the wall, to affright them, and to fill them with consternation; that they might take the city.
19. And they spoke against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, the work of the hands of man.
20. And for this [cause] Hezekiah the king, and the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, prayed and cried to heaven.
21. And the LORD sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty men of valor, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he had come into the house of his god, they that came forth from his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
22. Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all [others], and guided them on every side.
23. And many brought gifts to the LORD to Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah so that from thenceforth he was magnified in the sight of all nations.
24. In those days Hezekiah was sick and near to death, and [he] prayed to the LORD and he spoke to him, and he gave him a sign.
25. But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit [done] to him; for his heart was lifted up therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
26. Notwithstanding, Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, [both] he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
27. And Hezekiah had very great riches and honor and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of pleasant jewels
28. Store-houses also for the increase of corn, and wine, and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and cotes for flocks.
29. Moreover, he provided for himself cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance for God had given him substance in great abundance.
30. This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon, and brought it straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
31. But, in [the business of] the embassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent to him to inquire of the wonder that was [done] in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all [that was] in his heart.
32. Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, behold, they [are] written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, [and] in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33. And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the chief of the sepulchers of the sons of David and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honor at his death and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
