2 Chronicles 32:17
He wrote also letters to rail on the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other lands have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of mine hand.
KJV
Epistolas quoque scripsit plenas blasphemiæ in Dominum Deum Israël, et locutus est adversus eum : Sicut dii gentium ceterarum non potuerunt liberare populum suum de manu mea, sic et Deus Ezechiæ eruere non poterit populum suum de manu ista.
Vulgate
καὶ βιβλίον ἔγραψεν ὀνειδίζειν τὸν κύριον θεὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ εἶπεν περὶ αὐτοῦ λέγων Ὡς θεοὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν τῆς γῆς οὐκ ἐξείλαντο λαοὺς αὐτῶν ἐκ χειρός μου, οὕτως οὐ μὴ ἐξέληται ὁ θεὸς Ἑζεκίου λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκ χειρός μου.
LXX
He wrote also letters, to rail on Jehovah, the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of the lands, which have not delivered their people out of my hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of my hand.
