'Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, "He will not come to this city or shoot an arrow there; and he will not come before it with a shield or throw up a siege ramp against it.
33
"By the way that he came, by the same he will return, and he shall not come to this city,"' declares the LORD .
34
'For I will defend this city to save it for My own sake and for My servant David's sake.' "
35
Then it happened that night that the angel of the LORD went out and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when men rose early in the morning, behold, all of them were dead .
36
So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and returned home, and lived at Nineveh.
