Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, the LORD will deliver us. Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

The verse 18 is found in chapter 36 of Isaiah. The Assyrian invasion reaches Jerusalem, and the Rabshakeh attempts to destroy the people’s confidence through propaganda. His speech portrays Yahweh as unable to save, confusing the defeat of other nations with the defeat of Israel’s God. Hezekiah tears his clothes and seeks the prophetic word, showing a different response based on dependence upon God.

Laßt euch Hiskia nicht bereden, daß er sagt: Der HERR wird uns erlösen. Haben auch der Heiden Götter ein jeglicher sein Land errettet von der Hand des Königs von Assyrien?
Mirad no os engañe Ezechîas diciendo: Jehová nos librará. ¿Libraron los dioses de las gentes cada uno a su tierra de la mano del rey de Asiria?
No dejen que Ezequías los seduzca diciendo: ‘Jehová nos librará’. ¿Acaso alguno de los dioses de las naciones ha librado su tierra de manos del rey de Asiria?
Qu'Ezéchias ne vous séduise point, en disant: L'Eternel nous délivrera. Les dieux des nations ont-ils délivré chacun son pays de la main du roi d'Assyrie?
Guardatevi che Ezechia non vi seduca, dicendo: Il Signore ci libererà. Ha alcuno degl’iddii delle genti potuto liberare il suo paese dalla mano del re di Assiria?
Não vos engane Ezequias, dizendo: O SENHOR nos livrará. Porventura os deuses das nações livraram cada um a sua terra das mãos do rei da Assíria?
恐怕 希西家 誤導你們說,耶和華必拯救我們。列國的神明有哪一個曾救它本國脫離 亞述 王的手呢?
