2 Kings 18:32

NET Bible® (New English Translation)

until I come and take you to a land just like your own– a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil and honey. Then you will live and not die. Don’t listen to Hezekiah, for he is misleading you when he says,“The LORD will rescue us.”
