And Yahweh sent an angel, who wiped out every warrior, every leader and every commander in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he went back to his own land with shame on his face. And when he entered the house of his god, some of his own offspring cut him down there with the sword.
In context
19They spoke of the God of Jerusalem as they would of the gods of the peoples of the earth, the work of human hands. 20Over this King Hezekiah and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, prayed and cried out to heaven. 21And Yahweh sent an angel, who wiped out every warrior, every leader and every commander in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he went back to his own land with shame on his face. And when he entered the house of his god, some of his own offspring cut him down there with the sword. 22So Yahweh saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Assyria and from the hand of all others, and he guided them on every side. 23Many brought offerings to Yahweh in Jerusalem and precious gifts to Hezekiah king of Judah, and from then on he was held high in the eyes of all the nations.
