2 Chronicles 32:18 Context
16And his seruants spake yet more against the Lord God, and against his seruant Hezekiah. 17Hee wrote also letters to raile on the Lord God of Israel, & to speake against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other lands haue not deliuered their people out of mine hand: so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliuer his people out of mine hand. 18Then they cryed with a loude voice in the Iewes speech vnto the people of Ierusalem that were on the wal, to affright them, and to trouble them, that they might take the city. 19And they spake against the God of Ierusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth which were the worke of the hands of man. 20For this cause Hezekiah the king, and the Prophet Isaiah the sonne of Amoz, prayed and cryed to heauen.
