5 And the king of As·syrʹi·a proceeded to come up against all the land and to come up to Sa·marʹi·a and lay siege+ against it for three years.

13 Do YOU not know what I myself and my forefathers did to all the peoples of the lands?+ Did the gods+ of the nations of the lands at all prove able to deliver their land out of my hand?

11 will it not be that just as I shall have done to Sa·marʹi·a and to her valueless gods,+ even so I shall do to Jerusalem and to her idols?’+

18 in order that Hez·e·kiʹah may not allure YOU,+ saying, ‘Jehovah himself will deliver us.’ Have the gods* of the nations delivered each one his own land out of the hand of the king of As·syrʹi·a?+
