2 Kings 18:34-36

New Catholic Bible

³⁴Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Shepharvaim, Henah, and Ivvah? Did they rescue Samaria from out of my hands?

³⁵“Which of the gods from any of the nations has delivered their land from out of my hands? How could the Lord deliver Jerusalem out of my hands?”

³⁶But the people remained silent and they did not say a word to him, for the king had commanded them, “You are not to answer him.”
