2 Kings 19:29-35
New American Standard Bible
29 ‘Then this shall be (A)the sign for you: [a]you will eat this year what grows of itself, in the second year what grows by itself, and in the third year sow, harvest, plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. 30 (B)The survivors that are left of the house of Judah will again take root downward and bear fruit upward. 31 For out of Jerusalem will go a remnant, and survivors (C)out of Mount Zion. (D)The zeal of [b]the Lord will perform this.
32 ‘Therefore this is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria: “(E)He will not come to this city nor shoot an arrow there; and he will not come before it with a shield nor heap up an assault ramp against it. 33 (F)By the way that he came, by [c]the same he will return, and he shall not come to this city,”’ declares the Lord. 34 ‘(G)For I will protect this city to save it for My own sake, and (H)for My servant David’s sake.’”
35 (I)Then it happened that night that the angel of the Lord went out and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when the rest got up early in the morning, behold, all of [d]the 185,000 were [e]dead.

New International Version
29 “This will be the sign(A) for you, Hezekiah:
“This year you will eat what grows by itself,(B)
and the second year what springs from that.
But in the third year sow and reap,
plant vineyards(C) and eat their fruit.
30 Once more a remnant(D) of the kingdom of Judah
will take root(E) below and bear fruit above.
31 For out of Jerusalem will come a remnant,(F)
and out of Mount Zion a band of survivors.(G)
“The zeal(H) of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.
32 “Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning the king of Assyria:
“‘He will not enter this city
or shoot an arrow here.
He will not come before it with shield
or build a siege ramp against it.
33 By the way that he came he will return;(I)
he will not enter this city,
declares the Lord.
34 I will defend(J) this city and save it,
for my sake and for the sake of David(K) my servant.’”
35 That night the angel of the Lord(L) went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the Assyrian camp. When the people got up the next morning—there were all the dead bodies!(M)

And therefore He [b]waits on (B)high to have compassion on you.

How blessed are all those who [c](D)long for Him.
