2 Kings 19:34 In-Context

32 Therefore, this is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria: He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow there or come before it with a shield or build up an assault ramp against it.
33 He will go back on the road that he came and he will not enter this city, declares the Lord.
34 I will defend this city and rescue it for My sake and for the sake of My servant David.
35 That night the angel of the Lord went out and struck down 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the [next] morning-there were all the dead bodies!
36 So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and left. He returned [home] and lived in Nineveh.
