33. Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come unto this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither shall he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it.
34. By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and he shall not come unto this city, saith Jehovah.
35. For I will defend this city to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.
36. And the angel of Jehovah went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand; and when men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.
37. So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
38. And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esar-haddon his son reigned in his stead.
