不要让希西迦欺骗你们，以为耶和华必拯救你们。列国的神明中有哪个曾经从亚述王手中救他的国家呢？哈马和亚珥拔的神明在哪里呢？西法瓦音的神明在哪里呢？他们从我手中救撒玛利亚了吗？这些国家的神明中有哪个曾从我手中救自己的国家呢？难道耶和华能从我手中救耶路撒冷吗？’”

然而，何细亚差遣使者向埃及王梭求援，不再像往年那样向亚述王进贡。亚述王发现后，把他抓起来囚在狱中。亚述王攻打以色列全境，并围困撒玛利亚三年。何细亚执政第九年，撒玛利亚沦陷。亚述王把以色列人掳到亚述，安置在哈腊、歌散的哈博河一带以及玛代人的各城。

耶和华啊，亚述诸王确实扫灭列国，使其土地荒凉，把他们的神像丢进火中烧毁。因为那些神像只是人用木头石头制造的，根本不是神。

可是他却不这样想，心里也不这样盘算，他只想毁灭许多国家。他说，‘我的臣仆都要做藩王！迦勒挪岂不是和迦基米施一样吗？哈马岂不是和亚珥拔一样吗？撒玛利亚岂不是和大马士革一样吗？它们不是都被我征服了吗？这些国家都在我的手中，他们雕刻的偶像不胜过耶路撒冷和撒玛利亚的偶像吗？我怎样毁灭撒玛利亚和它的偶像，也必怎样毁灭耶路撒冷和它的偶像。’”主完成在锡安山和耶路撒冷要做的事后，必惩罚心里狂妄、眼目高傲的亚述王。因为亚述王说：“我靠自己的力量和智慧成就了此事，因为我很聪明。我废除列国的疆界，掳掠他们的财物，像勇士一样征服他们的君王。我夺取列国的财物，好像探囊取物；我征服天下，不过是手到擒来；无人反抗，无人吭声。”

这就是那曾使天下荒凉、城邑倾覆、不肯释放俘虏回家的人吗？’

有哪个国家的神明曾经从亚述王手中救他的国家吗？哈马、亚珥拔的神明在哪里呢？西法瓦音、希拿和以瓦的神明又在哪里呢？他们从我手中救出撒玛利亚了吗？这些国家的神明哪个从我手中救了自己的国家呢？难道耶和华能从我手中救耶路撒冷吗？’”
