Is not Kalno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?
The king of Assyria uses these questions for emphasis. Alternate translation: "Kalno is no different from Carchemish. Hamath is no different from Arpad. Samaria is no different from Damascus. I have conquered them all!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion)
Kalno ... Carchemish ... Hamath ... Arpad
These are all names of cities. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names)
