2 Kings 19:29–35

²⁹And this to thee is the sign, Food of the year is the spontaneous growth, And in the second year the self-produced, And in the third year sow ye, and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat their fruits. ³⁰And it hath continued—The escaped of the house of Judah That hath been left—to take root beneath, And hath made fruit upward. ³¹For from Jerusalem goeth out a remnant, And an escape from mount Zion; The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts doth this. ³²Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Concerning the king of Asshur: He doth not come in unto this city, Nor doth he shoot there an arrow, Nor doth he come before it with shield. Nor doth he pour out against it a mount. ³³In the way that he cometh in—In it he turneth back, And unto this city he doth not come in, The affirmation of Jehovah— ³⁴And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.’

³⁵And it cometh to pass, in that night, that a messenger of Jehovah goeth out, and smiteth in the camp of Asshur a hundred eighty and five thousand, and they rise early in the morning, and lo, all of them are dead corpses.
