Common English Bible

²² He prayed like this: “You, my Lord, sent your angel to Hezekiah king of Judah and he killed one hundred eighty-five thousand from Sennacherib’s camp. ²³ Now ruler of the heavens, send a good angel in front of us to cause fear and trembling. ²⁴ May your mighty arm terrify those who come with verbal insults against your holy people.” With that he stopped speaking.
