Isaiah 37:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah King of Judah, saying, Let not thy God [a]deceive thee, in whom thou trustest, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the King of Assyria.
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the Kings of Assyria have done to all lands in destroying them, and shalt thou be delivered?
12 Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed? as [b]Gozan, and [c]Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden, which were at Telassar?
