Common English Bible
6 He appointed military officers over the troops, assembled them in the square of the city gate, and spoke these words of encouragement: 7 “Be brave and be strong! Don’t let the king of Assyria and all those warriors he brings with him scare you or cause you dismay, because our forces are greater than his.[a] 8 All he has is human strength, but we have the Lord our God, who will help us fight our battles!”
The troops trusted Judah’s King Hezekiah.
