2 Chronicles 32:9-15

After this King Sennacherib of Assyria and all his army surrounded and attacked Lachish. Then he sent his officers to Jerusalem with this message for King Hezekiah of Judah and all the people of Judah in Jerusalem: Sennacherib king of Assyria says this: “You have nothing to trust in to help you. It is no use for you to stay in Jerusalem under attack. Hezekiah says to you, ‘The LORD our God will save us from the king of Assyria,’ but he is fooling you. If you stay in Jerusalem, you will die from hunger and thirst. Hezekiah himself removed your LORD’s places of worship and altars. He told you people of Judah and Jerusalem that you must worship and burn incense on only one altar. “You know what my ancestors and I have done to all the people in other nations. The gods of those nations could not save their people from my power. My ancestors destroyed those nations; none of their gods could save them from me. So your god cannot save you from my power. Do not let Hezekiah fool you or trick you, and do not believe him. No god of any nation or kingdom has been able to save his people from me or my ancestors. Your god is even less able to save you from me.”
