Isaiah 37:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And he said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of tribulation and of rebuke and blasphemy: for the children are come to the [a]birth, and there is no strength to bring forth.
4 If so be the Lord thy God hath [b]heard the words of Rabshakeh, whom the King of Assyria his master hath sent to rail on the living God, and to reproach him with words, which the Lord thy God hath heard, then [c]lift thou up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 So the servants of the King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
