2 Kings 19:24-26

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁴ I have dug and drunk the waters of others, and with the sole of my feet I have dried up all the rivers of defended places.

²⁵ Hast thou never heard that from a long time ago I made her, and from ancient times I have formed her? Now I have made her come, and it shall be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.

²⁶ Therefore their inhabitants’ hands were too short; dismayed and confounded, they shall be as the grass of the field and as the green herb, as the hay on the housetops, that is dried up before it comes to maturity.
