Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither yet believe him: for no eloah of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your Elohim deliver you out of mine hand?
Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O Yahweh my Elohim, to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
