2 Kings 19:32
Assamese - 2019 (ইণ্ডিয়ান ৰিভাইচ ভাৰচন (IRV) আচামিচ - 2019)
What Does This Mean?
God is speaking through the prophet Isaiah and telling Hezekiah that the Assyrian king will not be able to attack Jerusalem. God promises that the Assyrians will not be able to shoot arrows, use shields, or build a ramp against the city.
Explained for Children
Imagine you're playing a game where a big bully wants to take your castle. God says, 'Don't worry, I won't let that happen. The bully can't even get close to your castle, let alone throw a ball or build a ramp to get in.'
Historical Background
This verse is from the Book of 2 Kings, written around the 6th century BCE. It describes the situation where the Assyrian army, under King Sennacherib, had laid siege to Jerusalem, but God assures King Hezekiah of Judah that the city will be protected.
Living It Out Today
In today's context, this can mean that we can trust God to protect us in times of fear or when we feel overwhelmed by challenges. Just like Jerusalem was protected from the Assyrians, God can help us stay safe from our own 'Assyrians' or challenges.
