14 This is what the king says: 'Don't let Hezekiah mislead you, for he is not able to rescue you! 15 Don't let Hezekiah talk you into trusting in the LORD by saying, |The LORD will certainly rescue us; this city will not be handed over to the king of Assyria.| 16 Don't listen to Hezekiah!' For this is what the king of Assyria says, 'Send me a token of your submission and surrender to me. Then each of you may eat from his own vine and fig tree and drink water from his own cistern, 17 until I come and take you to a land just like your own--a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
