"Of a truth,²¹ LORD,ª the kingsª of Assyriaª have destroyedª° the nationsª and¹ their lands,ª ... And have castª°¹ their godsª into the fire:ª for¹ they¹ [were] no¹ gods,ª but¹¹ the workª of men'sª hands,ª woodª and stone:ª therefore they have destroyedª° them." {2Kg 19:17-18} + "Then the kingª of Assyriaª came upª° throughout all¹ the land,ª and went upª° to Samaria,ª and besiegedª°¹ it threeª years.ª ... And there¹ they burnt incenseª° in all¹ the high places,ª as [did] the heathenª whom¹ the LORDª carried awayª° beforeª¹ them; and wroughtª° wickedª thingsª to provoke¹¹ the LORDª to anger:²°" {2Kg 17:5-11} + "Knowª° ye not¹ what¹ I¹ and my fathersª have doneª° unto all¹ the peopleª of [other] lands?ª were the godsª of the nationsª of those landsª any ways²° ableª° to deliverª°¹ their landsª out of mine hand?ª¹ ... Who¹ [was there] among all¹ the godsª of those¹ nationsª that¹ my fathersª utterly destroyed,ª° that¹ couldª° deliverª°¹ his peopleª out of mine hand,ª¹ that¹ your Godª should be ableª° to deliverª° you out of mine hand?ª¹" {2Ch 32:13-14} + "For¹ he saith,ª° [Are] not¹ my princesª altogetherª kings?ª ...
