Lexham English Bible

An Angel Neutralizes the Assyrian Army

³⁵ It happened in that night that an angel of Yahweh went out, and he struck down one hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of Assyria. When they got up early in the morning, look! All of them were dead corpses. ³⁶ Then Sennacherib king of Assyria set out and went and returned and lived in Nineveh. ³⁷ It happened that he was worshiping in the temple of Nisroch his god, and Adrammelech and Sharezer^[a] struck him with the sword. Then they escaped into the land of Ararat, and Esarhaddon his son became king in his place.
