Sennacherib king of Assyria takes all the fortified cities of Judah, and Hezekiah gives silver and gold to the king of Assyria

앗수르 왕 산헤립이 유다 모든 견고한 성읍들을 취하고 히스기야가 은과 금을 앗수르 왕에게 줌

2 Kings 18:13–16: in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria comes up against all the fortified cities of Judah and takes them. Hezekiah king of Judah sends to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have offended you. Withdraw from me. That which you put on me, I will bear.” The king of Assyria appoints to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. Hezekiah gives him all the silver that was found in the LORD’s house and in the treasures of the king’s house. At that time, Hezekiah cuts off the gold from the doors of the LORD’s temple, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gives it to the king of Assyria. The Korean Revised Version reads 라기스로 보내어 앗수르 왕에게 (sent to Lachish, to the king of Assyria) at 18:14, and at 18:16 names Hezekiah once (유다 왕 히스기야가) and reads 자기가 모든 기둥에 입힌 금, the gold with which he himself had overlaid all the pillars.
