33 For this, thus said Jehovah concerning the king of Assur, Thou shalt not come into this city, and thou shalt not shoot an arrow there, and thou shalt not go before it with a shield, and thou shalt not cast a mound against it. 34 In the way which he came in it he shall turn back, and to this city he shall not come in, says Jehovah. 35 And I covered over this city to Save it for my sake, and for the sake of David my servant. 36 And the messenger of Jehovah will go forth, and strike in the camp of Assur a hundred and eighty-five thousand: and they will rise early in the morning, and behold, all of them dead corpses. 37 And Senherib king of Assur will remove and go and turn back and dwell in Nineveh. 38 And it will be he worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, and Adrammelech and Sharezer, his sons, struck him with the sword; and they escaped to the land of Ararat; and Esar-Haddon his son will reign in his stead.
