Isaiah 36:16 Context
14Thus saith the king; Let not Hezekiah deceiue you, for he shall not be able to deliuer you. 15Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord, saying; The Lord will surely deliuer vs: this citie shall not be deliuered into the hand of the King of Assyria. 16Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus sayth the King of Assyria, Make an agreement with mee by a present, and come out to mee: and eate yee euery one of his vine, and euery one of his figgetree, and drinke yee euery one the waters of his owne cisterne: 17Until I come and take you away to a land like your owne land, a land of corne and wine, a land of bread and vineyards: 18Beware lest Hezekiah perswade you, saying; The Lord will deliuer vs. Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
