2 Chronicles 32:8-9

Context
32:8 He has with him mere human strength, 1  but the Lord our God is with us to help us and fight our battles!” The army 2  was encouraged by the words of King Hezekiah of Judah.

32:9 Afterward King Sennacherib of Assyria, while attacking Lachish with all his military might, sent his messengers 3  to Jerusalem. The message was for King Hezekiah of Judah and all the people of 4  Judah who were in Jerusalem. It read:

1 tn Heb “With him is an arm of flesh.”

2 tn Or “people.”

3 tn Heb “servants.”

4 tn Heb “all Judah.” The words “the people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” here by metonymy for the people of Judah.
