16 Incline your ear, O Jehovah, and hear.+ Open your eyes,+ O Jehovah, and see, and hear the words of Sen·nachʹer·ib that he has sent to taunt+ the living God.*

4 Hear,+ O our God, for we have become an object of contempt;+ and make their reproach+ return upon their own head, and give them to the plunder in the land of captivity.
