Do you not know what I and my ancestors have done to all the peoples of other lands? Were the gods of the nations of those lands ever able to save their land from my hand?
In context
11Is Hezekiah not leading you astray, handing you over to die of hunger and thirst, when he says, ‘Yahweh our God will save us from the grip of the king of Assyria’? 12Is this not the same Hezekiah who removed his high places and his altars and told Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You shall bow down before one altar, and on it you shall burn incense’? 13Do you not know what I and my ancestors have done to all the peoples of other lands? Were the gods of the nations of those lands ever able to save their land from my hand? 14Which of all the gods of those nations that my ancestors devoted to destruction was able to save his people from my hand, that your God should be able to save you from my hand? 15So now, do not let Hezekiah delude you or lead you astray like this, and do not believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to save his people from my hand or from the hand of my ancestors — how much less will your gods save you from my hand!”
