Isaiah 37:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 Now therefore, O Lord our God, save thou us out of his hand, that [a]all the kingdoms of the earth may know, that thou only art the Lord.
21 ¶ Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Because thou hast prayed unto me, concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,
22 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken against him, The [b]virgin, the daughter of Zion, hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn: the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
