Judges 4:15And in front of him the LORD routed with the sword Sisera, all his charioteers, and all his army. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled on foot.Judges 4:16Then Barak pursued the chariots and army as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and the whole army of Sisera fell by the sword; not a single man was left.Judges 4:17Meanwhile, Sisera had fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.Judges 4:18Jael went out to greet Sisera and said to him, “Come in, my lord. Come in with me. Do not be afraid.” So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.Judges 4:19Sisera said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty.” So she opened a container of milk, gave him a drink, and covered him again.Judges 4:20“Stand at the entrance to the tent,” he said, “and if anyone comes and asks you, ‘Is there a man here?’ say, ‘No.’”Judges 4:21But as he lay sleeping from exhaustion, Heber’s wife Jael took a tent peg, grabbed a hammer, and went silently to Sisera. She drove the peg through his temple and into the ground, and he died.2 Kings 18:17Nevertheless, the king of Assyria sent the Tartan, the Rabsaris, and the Rabshakeh, along with a great army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They advanced up to Jerusalem and stationed themselves by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field.2 Kings 18:18Then they called for the king. And Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, went out to them.2 Kings 18:19The Rabshakeh said to them, “Tell Hezekiah that this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What is the basis of this confidence of yours?2 Kings 18:20You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against me?2 Kings 18:21Look now, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff that will pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.2 Kings 18:22But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ is He not the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You must worship before this altar in Jerusalem’?2 Kings 18:23Now, therefore, make a bargain with my master, the king of Assyria. I will give you two thousand horses—if you can put riders on them!2 Kings 18:24For how can you repel a single officer among the least of my master’s servants when you depend on Egypt for chariots and horsemen?2 Kings 18:25So now, was it apart from the LORD that I have come up against this place to destroy it? The LORD Himself said to me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it.’”2 Kings 18:26Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, along with Shebnah and Joah, said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, since we understand it. Do not speak with us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall.”2 Kings 18:27But the Rabshakeh replied, “Has my master sent me to speak these words only to you and your master, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are destined with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?”2 Kings 18:28Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out loudly in Hebrew: “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria!2 Kings 18:29This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you; he cannot deliver you from my hand.2 Kings 18:30Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, ‘The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’2 Kings 18:31Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree and drink water from his own cistern,2 Kings 18:32until I come and take you away to a land like your own—a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey—so that you may live and not die. But do not listen to Hezekiah, for he misleads you when he says, ‘The LORD will deliver us.’2 Kings 18:33Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?2 Kings 18:34Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?2 Kings 18:35Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered his land from my hand? How then can the LORD deliver Jerusalem from my hand?”2 Kings 18:36But the people remained silent and did not answer a word, for Hezekiah had commanded, “Do not answer him.”2 Kings 18:37Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh.Job 8:13Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so the hope of the godless will perish.Job 8:14His confidence is fragile; his security is in a spider’s web.Job 8:15He leans on his web, but it gives way; he holds fast, but it does not endure.Job 13:16Moreover, this will be my salvation, for no godless man can appear before Him.Job 15:31Let him not deceive himself with trust in emptiness, for emptiness will be his reward.Job 15:33He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes, like an olive tree that sheds its blossoms.Job 15:34For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.Job 17:8The upright are appalled at this, and the innocent are stirred against the godless.Job 20:4Do you not know that from antiquity, since man was placed on the earth,Job 20:5the triumph of the wicked has been brief and the joy of the godless momentary?Job 20:6Though his arrogance reaches the heavens, and his head touches the clouds,Job 20:7he will perish forever, like his own dung; those who had seen him will ask, ‘Where is he?’Job 20:8He will fly away like a dream, never to be found; he will be chased away like a vision in the night.Job 20:9The eye that saw him will see him no more, and his place will no longer behold him.Job 20:10His sons will seek the favor of the poor, for his own hands must return his wealth.Job 20:11The youthful vigor that fills his bones will lie down with him in the dust.Job 20:12Though evil is sweet in his mouth and he conceals it under his tongue,Job 20:13though he cannot bear to let it go and keeps it in his mouth,Job 20:14yet in his stomach his food sours into the venom of cobras within him.Job 20:15He swallows wealth but vomits it out; God will force it from his stomach.Job 20:16He will suck the poison of cobras; the fangs of a viper will kill him.Job 20:17He will not enjoy the streams, the rivers flowing with honey and cream.Job 20:18He must return the fruit of his labor without consuming it; he cannot enjoy the profits of his trading.Job 27:8For what is the hope of the godless when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?Job 27:9Will God hear his cry when distress comes upon him?Job 27:10Will he delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?Job 27:13This is the wicked man’s portion from God—the heritage the ruthless receive from the Almighty.Job 27:14Though his sons are many, they are destined for the sword; and his offspring will never have enough food.Job 27:15His survivors will be buried by the plague, and their widows will not weep for them.Job 27:16Though he heaps up silver like dust and piles up a wardrobe like clay,Job 27:17what he lays up, the righteous will wear, and his silver will be divided by the innocent.Job 27:18The house he built is like a moth’s cocoon, like a hut set up by a watchman.
