18. For truly, O Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have laid waste to countries and territories.
19. And they have cast their gods into the fire. For these were not gods, but the works of men's hands, of wood and of stone. And they broke them into pieces.
20. And now, O Lord our God, save us from his hand. And let all the kingdoms of the earth acknowledge that you alone are Lord."
