    9. After this, while King Sennacherib of Assyria was at Lachish with all his forces, he sent his servants to Jerusalem to King Hezekiah of Judah and to all the people of Judah that were in Jerusalem, saying,

    10. “Thus says King Sennacherib of Assyria: On what are you relying, that you undergo the siege of Jerusalem?

    11. Is not Hezekiah misleading you, handing you over to die by famine and by thirst, when he tells you, ‘The Lord our God will save us from the hand of the king of Assyria’?

    12. Was it not this same Hezekiah who took away his high places and his altars and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, ‘Before one altar you shall worship, and upon it you shall make your offerings’?

    13. Do you not know what I and my ancestors have done to all the peoples of other lands? Were the gods of the nations of those lands at all able to save their lands out of my hand?

    14. Who among all the gods of those nations that my ancestors utterly destroyed was able to save his people from my hand, that your God should be able to save you from my hand?

    15. Now therefore do not let Hezekiah deceive you or mislead you in this fashion, and do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to save his people from my hand or from the hand of my ancestors. How much less will your God save you out of my hand!”

    16. His servants said still more against the Lord God and against his servant Hezekiah.

    17. He also wrote letters to throw contempt on the Lord the God of Israel and to speak against him, saying, “Just as the gods of the nations in other lands did not rescue their people from my hands, so the God of Hezekiah will not rescue his people from my hand.”

    18. They shouted it with a loud voice in the language of Judah to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten and terrify them, in order that they might take the city.

    19. They spoke of the God of Jerusalem as if he were like the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of human hands. Sennacherib’s Defeat and Death

    20. Then King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz prayed because of this and cried to heaven.

    21. And the Lord sent an angel who cut off all the mighty warriors and commanders and officers in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned in disgrace to his own land. When he came into the house of his god, some of his own sons struck him down there with the sword.

    22. So the Lord saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of King Sennacherib of Assyria and from the hand of all his enemies; he gave them rest on every side.

    23. Many brought gifts to the Lord in Jerusalem and precious things to King Hezekiah of Judah, so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from that time onward. Hezekiah’s Sickness

    7. Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.

    8. Discipline yourselves, keep alert. Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour.

    9. Resist him, steadfast in your faith, for you know that your brothers and sisters in all the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.

    10. And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, support, strengthen, and establish you.

    11. To him be the power forever and ever. Amen. Final Greetings and Benediction

    4. Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

    5. Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near.

    6. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

    7. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

    8. Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

    19. “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal;

    20. but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.

    21. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The Sound Eye

    22. “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light;

    23. but if your eye is unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! Serving Two Masters

    24. “No one can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth. Do Not Worry

    25. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

    26. Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

    27. And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life?

    28. And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin,

    29. yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these.

    30. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?

    31. Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear?’

    32. For it is the Gentiles who strive for all these things; and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

    33. But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

    34. “So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today.
