Isaiah 37:24
New American Standard Bible
24 Through your servants you have taunted the Lord,
And you have said, ‘With my many chariots I came up to the heights of the mountains,
To the remotest parts of (A)Lebanon;
And I cut down its tall (B)cedars and its choice junipers.
And I will come to its [a]highest peak, its thickest (C)forest.

Assyrians Destroyed
36 Then the (A)angel of the Lord went out and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when the rest got up early in the morning, behold, all of [a]the 185,000 were [b]dead. 37 So Sennacherib the king of Assyria departed and [c]returned home and lived in (B)Nineveh. 38 Then it came about, as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer killed him with the sword; and they escaped to the land of (C)Ararat. And his son (D)Esarhaddon became king in his place.
