Isaiah 36:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ Do not hearken to Ezechias: for thus said the king of the Assyrians: Do with me that which is for your advantage, and come out to me, and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the water of his cistern,

¹⁷ Till I come and take you away to a land, like to your own, a land of corn and of wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

¹⁸ Neither let Ezechias trouble you, saying: The Lord will deliver us. Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians?
