And against whom lifted up the voice ? Yea , thou dost lift up on high thine eyes Against the Holy One of Israel . ylt @Isaiah:37:24 @By the hand of thy servants Thou hast reviled the Lord , and sayest : In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of hills , The sides of Lebanon , And I cut down the height of its cedars , The choice of its firs , And I enter the high place of its extremity , The forest of its Carmel . ylt @Isaiah:37:25 @I -- I have dug and drunk waters , And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark . ylt @Isaiah:37:26 @Hast thou not heard from afar ? -- it I did , From days of old -- that I formed it . Now , I have brought it in , And it is to make desolate , Ruinous heaps -- fenced cities , ylt @Isaiah:37:27 @And their inhabitants are feeble-handed , They were broken down , and are dried up . They have been the herb of the field , And the greenness of the tender grass , Grass of the roofs , And blasted corn , before it hath risen up . ylt @Isaiah:37:28 @And thy sitting down , and thy going out , And thy coming in , I have known , And thy anger towards Me . ylt @Isaiah:37:29 @Because of thy anger towards Me , And thy noise -- it came up into Mine ears , I have put My hook in thy nose , And My bridle in thy lips , And I have caused thee to turn back In the way in which thou camest . ylt @Isaiah:37:30 @-- And this to thee [is ] the sign , Food of the year [is ] self-sown grain , And in the second year the spontaneous growth , And in the third year , sow ye and reap , And plant vineyards , and eat their fruit . ylt @Isaiah:37:31 @And it hath continued -- the escaped Of the house of Judah that hath been left -- To take root beneath , And it hath made fruit upward . ylt @Isaiah:37:32 @For from Jerusalem goeth forth a remnant , And an escape from mount Zion , The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts doth this . ylt @Isaiah:37:33 @Therefore , thus said Jehovah , Concerning the king of Asshur : He doth not come in unto this city , Nor doth he shoot there an arrow , Nor doth he come before it [with ] shield , Nor doth he pour out against it a mount . ylt @Isaiah:37:34 @In the way that he came , in it he turneth back , And unto this city he doth not come in , An affirmation of Jehovah , ylt @Isaiah:37:35 @And I have covered over this city , To save it , for Mine own sake , And for the sake of David My servant .' ylt @Isaiah:37:36 @And a messenger of Jehovah goeth out , and smiteth in the camp of Asshur a hundred and eighty and five thousand ; and [men ] rise early in the morning , and lo , all of them [are ] dead corpses . ylt @Isaiah:37:37 @And journey , and go , and turn back doth Sennacherib king of Asshur , and dwelleth in Nineveh . ylt @Isaiah:37:38 @And it cometh to pass , he is bowing himself in the house of Nisroch his god , and Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons have smitten him with the sword , and they have escaped to the land of Ararat , and Esar-Haddon his son reigneth in his stead .
