2 Kings 19:32-33

19:32 So this is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria:

“He will not enter this city,

nor will he shoot an arrow here.

He will not attack it with his shield-carrying warriors,

nor will he build siege works against it.

19:33 He will go back the way he came.

He will not enter this city,” says the Lord.


tn Heb “there.”

tn Heb “[with] a shield.” By metonymy the “shield” stands for the soldier who carries it.
