2 Kings 18:20

Modern King James Version

Do you say that a mere word of the lips is wisdom and strength for the war? Now on whom do you trust that you rebel against me?

See the chapter Copy

And Jehovah was with him. He was blessed wherever he went. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and did not serve him.

Let more work be laid upon the men, and let them labor in it. And do not let them regard vain words.

Purposes are established by counsel; and with good advice make war.

I say, Are only words of the lips wisdom and strength for war? Now, in whom do you trust, that you rebel against me?
