16
Hearken not to Ezekias: thus says the king of the Assyrians, If ye wish to be blessed, come out to me: and ye shall eat every one his vine and his fig-trees, and ye shall drink water out of your own cisterns:
14
thus says the king, Let not Ezekias deceive you with words: he will not be able to deliver you.
15
And let not Ezekias say to you, That God will deliver you, and this city will not at all be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
16
Hearken not to Ezekias: thus says the king of the Assyrians, If ye wish to be blessed, come out to me: and ye shall eat every one his vine and his fig-trees, and ye shall drink water out of your own cisterns:
17
until I come and take you to a land, like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread, and vineyards.
18
Let not Ezekias deceive you, saying, God will deliver you. Have the gods of the nations delivered each one his own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians?
