2 KINGS 19:26 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.”
But I know your rising up and your sitting down, your going out and your coming in, and your raging against me — the oracle asserts the LORD's omniscience regarding Sennacherib: the LORD knows all his actions and movements ('your rising up and your sitting down, your going out and your coming in'), and knows his 'raging against me.' This phrase 'raging against me' identifies Sennacherib's entire military campaign as rebellion against the LORD. The knowledge phrase (יָדַעְתִּי, *yadati*, 'I know') emphasizes divine awareness of what might seem hidden from human perspective.
