Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) is not he the one whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away … Jerusalem”?

(Some words not found in UHB: and=because/when say to=me to/towards YHWH God,our trust am=not he/it which/who removed Ḩizqiy\sup yāh\sup* DOM high_places,him and=DOM altars,whose and=he/it_said to,Judah and,to,Jerusalem to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the,altar the=this worship )

The king of Assyria uses this question to ridicule the people and to imply that Yahweh was angry about what Hezekiah did and would not protect them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “he is the one whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away … Jerusalem.” or “he is the one whom Hezekiah insulted by tearing down his high places and altars … Jerusalem.” (See also: figs-explicit)

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

(Occurrence 0) has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, “You must worship before this altar in Jerusalem”?

This can be written as an indirect quote. “Judah” and “Jerusalem” refer to the people who live in them. Alternate translation: “has told the people of Judah and Jerusalem that they must worship only at this altar in Jerusalem.” (See also: figs-metonymy)
