2 Chronicles 32:18

← 2 Chronicles 32:17	2 Chronicles 32:18 (KJV)	2 Chronicles 32:19 →
He wrote also letters to rail on the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of mine hand.	Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' speech unto the people of Jerusalem that [were] on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.	And they spake against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, [which were] the work of the hands of man.
