2 Kings 18:28
New International Version
28 Then the commander stood and called out in Hebrew, “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Revelation 19:6
New International Version
6 Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,(A) like the roar of rushing waters(B) and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:
Ezekiel 31:3-10
New International Version
3 Consider Assyria,(A) once a cedar in Lebanon,(B)
with beautiful branches overshadowing the forest;
it towered on high,
its top above the thick foliage.(C)
4 The waters(D) nourished it,
deep springs made it grow tall;
their streams flowed
all around its base
and sent their channels
to all the trees of the field.(E)
5 So it towered higher(F)
than all the trees of the field;
its boughs increased
and its branches grew long,
spreading because of abundant waters.(G)
6 All the birds of the sky
nested in its boughs,
all the animals of the wild
gave birth(H) under its branches;
all the great nations
lived in its shade.(I)
7 It was majestic in beauty,
with its spreading boughs,
for its roots went down
to abundant waters.(J)
8 The cedars(K) in the garden of God
could not rival it,
nor could the junipers
equal its boughs,
nor could the plane trees(L)
compare with its branches—
no tree in the garden of God
could match its beauty.(M)
9 I made it beautiful
with abundant branches,
the envy of all the trees of Eden(N)
in the garden of God.(O)
10 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because the great cedar towered over the thick foliage, and because it was proud(P) of its height,
Ezekiel 29:3
New International Version
3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
Isaiah 36:13-18
New International Version
13 Then the commander stood and called out in Hebrew,(A) “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!(B) 14 This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive(C) you. He cannot deliver you! 15 Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the Lord when he says, ‘The Lord will surely deliver(D) us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’(E)
16 “Do not listen to Hezekiah. This is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then each of you will eat fruit from your own vine and fig tree(F) and drink water from your own cistern,(G) 17 until I come and take you to a land like your own(H)—a land of grain and new wine,(I) a land of bread and vineyards.
18 “Do not let Hezekiah mislead you when he says, ‘The Lord will deliver us.’ Have the gods of any nations ever delivered their lands from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Isaiah 10:8-13
New International Version
8 ‘Are not my commanders(A) all kings?’ he says.
9 ‘Has not Kalno(B) fared like Carchemish?(C)
Is not Hamath(D) like Arpad,(E)
and Samaria(F) like Damascus?(G)
10 As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols,(H)
kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—
11 shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images
as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?(I)’”
12 When the Lord has finished all his work(J) against Mount Zion(K) and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria(L) for the willful pride(M) of his heart and the haughty look(N) in his eyes. 13 For he says:
