And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.

Verse 37 is found in chapter 19 of 2 Kings. During the night, the Assyrian army suffers a devastating defeat and Sennacherib withdraws to Nineveh. Later he is killed by his own sons. The outcome directly answers the word announced by Isaiah: the threat disappears without Jerusalem having to militarily conquer the empire. The account contrasts Sennacherib’s arrogance with the Lord’s sovereignty. Jerusalem’s deliverance is not explained as a military achievement by Judah, but as divine intervention confirming the prophetic word.

Und da er anbetete im Hause Nisrochs, seines Gottes, erschlugen ihn mit dem Schwert Adrammelech und Sarezer, seine Söhne, und entrannen ins Land Ararat. Und sein Sohn Asar-Haddon ward König an seiner Statt.
Y aconteció que, estando él adorando en el templo de Nisroch su dios, Adramelech y Saresar sus hijos lo hirieron a cuchillo; y huyéronse a tierra de Ararat. Y reinó en su lugar Esar-hadón su hijo.
Mientras se inclinaba en el templo de Nisroc, su dios, sus hijos Adramelec y Sarezer lo hirieron a espada. Ellos escaparon a la tierra de Ararat, y su hijo Esar-hadón reinó en su lugar.
Or, comme il était prosterné dans la maison de Nisroc, son dieu, Adrammélec et Scharetser, ses fils, le frappèrent avec l'épée, et s'enfuirent au pays d'Ararat. Et Esar-Haddon, son fils, régna à sa place.
Ed avvenne che, mentre egli adorava nella casa di Nisroc, suo dio, Adrammelec, e Sareser, suoi figliuoli, lo percossero con la spada; e poi scamparono nel paese di Ararat. Ed Esar-haddon, suo figliuolo, regnò in luogo suo
E sucedeu que, estando ele prostrado na casa de Nisroque, seu deus, Adrameleque e Sarezer, seus filhos, o feriram à espada; porém eles escaparam para a terra de Ararate; e Esar-Hadom, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
