“I will defend this city and save it for My own sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
2 Kings 19:34 (BSB)
Context Reading
32So this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria: ‘He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow into it. He will not come before it with a shield or build up a siege ramp against it. 33He will go back the way he came, and he will not enter this city, declares the LORD. 34I will defend this city and save it for My own sake and for the sake of My servant David.’” 35And that very night the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 men in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the next morning, there were all the dead bodies! 36So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.
