19:15 Hezekiah prayed before the
Lord: “
Lord God of Israel, who is enthroned on the cherubs!
You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the sky
and the earth.
19:16 Pay attention,
Lord, and hear! Open your eyes,
Lord, and observe! Listen to the message Sennacherib sent and how he taunts the living God!
19:17 It is true,
Lord, that the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands.
19:18 They have burned the gods of the nations,
for they are not really gods, but only the product of human hands manufactured from wood and stone. That is why the Assyrians could destroy them.
19:19 Now, O
Lord our God, rescue us from his power, so that all the kingdoms of the earth will know that you,
Lord, are the only God.”
