Sirach 48:16-18
Revised Standard Version
16 Some of them did what was pleasing to God,[a]
but others multiplied sins.
Hezekiah
17 Hezeki′ah fortified his city,
and brought water into the midst of it;
he tunneled the sheer rock with iron
and built pools for water.
18 In his days Sennach′erib came up,
and sent the Rab′shakeh;[b]
he lifted up his hand against Zion
and made great boasts in his arrogance.
