Hezekiah’s prayer when he spreads the letter before the LORD

히스기야가 글을 여호와 앞에 펴 놓고 한 기도

Isaiah 37:14–20: Hezekiah receives the letter from the hand of the messengers and reads it. Then Hezekiah goes up to the LORD’s house, and spreads it before the LORD. Hezekiah prays to the LORD, saying, “LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, who is enthroned among the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth. Turn your ear, LORD, and hear. Open your eyes, LORD, and behold. Hear all of the words of Sennacherib, who has sent to defy the living God. Truly, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the countries and their land, and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them. Now therefore, LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you are the LORD, even you only.” The Korean Revised Version names Hezekiah once at 37:14 and gives 37:15 no subject of its own (여호와께 기도하여 가로되); it reads 글 where WEB reads “the letter”, and 37:19 그러므로 멸망을 당하였나이다 (therefore they were destroyed), where WEB reads “therefore they have destroyed them”.
