6 And he set captains of war over the people and gathered them together to him in the plaza of the gate of the city and spoke unto their heart, saying,

7 Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria nor for all the multitude that [is] with him, for [there are] more with us than with him.

8 With him [is] an arm of flesh, but with us [is] the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles. And the people were upheld by the words of Hezekiah, king of Judah.
