Isaías 37:11

11 "He aquí, tú has oído lo que los reyes de Asiria han hecho a todas las naciones, destruyéndolas por completo, ¿y serás tú librado?

Isaías 37:11 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 37:11

Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to
all lands, by destroying them utterly
He boasts of the achievements of himself and his ancestors, and of more than was true; and which, if it had been true, was more to their disgrace than honour, namely, utterly to destroy kingdoms, and their inhabitants, to gratify their lusts; but though many had been destroyed by them, yet not all; not Ethiopia, whose king was come out to make war with him, and of whom he seems to be afraid; nor Egypt, which was in confederacy with Ethiopia; nor Judea, he was now invading; but this he said in a taunting way, to terrify Hezekiah: and shalt thou be delivered?
canst thou expect it? surely thou canst not. Is it probable? yea, is it possible thou shouldest be delivered? it is not; as sure as other lands have been destroyed, so sure shall thine.

Isaías 37:11 In-Context

9 Y les oyó decir acerca de Tirhaca, rey de Etiopía: Ha salido a pelear contra ti. Y cuando lo oyó, envió mensajeros a Ezequías, diciendo:
10 Así diréis a Ezequías, rey de Judá: "No te engañe tu Dios en quien tú confías, diciendo: 'Jerusalén no será entregada en mano del rey de Asiria.'
11 "He aquí, tú has oído lo que los reyes de Asiria han hecho a todas las naciones, destruyéndolas por completo, ¿y serás tú librado?
12 "¿Acaso los libraron los dioses de las naciones que mis padres destruyeron, es decir, Gozán, Harán, Resef y a los hijos de Edén que estaban en Telasar?
13 "¿Dónde está el rey de Hamat, el rey de Arfad, el rey de la ciudad de Sefarvaim, de Hena y de Iva?"
