G2532 And G305 they ascended, G2532 and G2064 came G1519 to G* Jerusalem. G2532 And G2476 they stood G1722 by G3588 the G5200.1 aqueduct G3588 of the G507 upper G2861 pool, G3739 which G1510.2.3 is G1722 in G3588 the G3598 way G3588 of the G68 field G3588 of the G1102 fuller.

  19 G2532 And G2036 [2said G4314 3to G1473 4them G* 1Rabshakeh], G2036 Say G1211 indeed G4314 to G* Hezekiah, G3592 Thus G3004 says G3588 the G935 [2king G3588   G3173 1great], G935 the king G* of the Assyrians, G5100 What is G3588   G4006 this reliance G3778   G3739 which G3982 you yield on?
  20 G4133 How then G3056 do words G5491 of the lips G2532 and G1012 counsel G3904.3 [2 the battle array G1096 1become] G1519 for G4171 war? G3568 Now G3767 then, G1909 upon G5100 whom G3982 are you relying upon, G3754 that G114 you annulled allegiance G1722 to G1473 me?
  21 G2400 Behold, G3982 are you [2relying G4572 1yourself] G1909 upon G3588   G4464 [3rod G3588   G2562.1 4of reed G3588   G2345.4 2fractured G3778 1this] -- G1909 upon G* Egypt? G5613 Thus G1437 if G1991 [2should stay G435 1man] G1909 upon G1473 it, G1525 it will enter G1519 into G3588   G5495 his hand G1473   G2532 and G5069.2 puncture G1473 it. G3779 Thus G1510.2.3 is G* Pharaoh G935 king G* of Egypt G3956 to all G3588 the ones G3982 relying G1909 upon G1473 him.
  22 G2532 And G1437 if G2036 you should say G4314 to G1473 me, G1909 Upon G2962 the lord G3588   G2316 our God G1473   G3982 we rely on. G3780 Is it not G1473 he G* that Hezekiah G868 removed G3588   G5308 his high places G1473   G2532 and G3588   G2379 his altars, G1473   G2532 and G2036 he said G3588 to G* Judah G2532 and G3588 to G* Jerusalem, G1799 Before G3588   G2379 this altar G3778   G4352 you shall do obeisance G1722 in G* Jerusalem?
  23 G2532 And G3568 now G3396 mix in G3588 with G2962 my master G1473   G3588 the G935 king G* of the Assyrians, G2532 and G1325 I will give G1473 to you G1367 two thousand G2462 horses -- G1487 if G1410 you shall be able G1325 to put G4572 for yourself G1912.2 a rider G1909 upon G1473 them.
  24 G2532 And G4459 how G654 will you turn back G3588   G4383 the face G5116.1 [2toparch G1520 1of one] G3588 of the G1401 [2servants G3588   G2962 3of my master G1473   G3588 1least of the], G1646   G2532 and G1679 hope G4572 for yourself G1909 upon G* Egypt G1519 for G716 chariots G2532 and G2460 horsemen?
  25 G2532 And G3568 now, G3361 is it G427 without G2962 the lord G305 that we ascended G1909 against G3588   G5117 this place G3778   G3588   G1311 to utterly destroy G1473 it? G2962 The lord G2036 said G4314 to G1473 me, G305 Ascend G1909 against G3588   G1093 this land G3778   G2532 and G1311 utterly destroy G1473 it!
  26 G2532 And G2036 [8said G* 1Eliakim G5207 2son G* 3of Hilkiah G2532 4and G* 5Shebna G2532 6and G* 7Joah] G4314 to G* Rabshakeh, G2980 Speak G1211 indeed G4314 to G3588   G3816 your servants G1473   G* in Syrian! G3754 for G191 we hear. G1473   G2532 And G3756 do not G2980 speak G4314 with G1473 us G2454.1 in Jewish G1722 to G3588 the G3775 ears G3588 of the G2992 people G3588   G1909 upon G3588 the G5038 wall!
  27 G2532 And G2036 [2said G4314 3to G1473 4them G* 1Rabshakeh], G3361 Is it G4314 to G3588   G2962 your master, G1473   G2532 and G4314 to G1473 you G649 [2sent G1473 3me G3588   G2962 1my master] G1473   G2980 to speak G3588   G3056 these words? G3778   G3780 Is it not G4314 to G3588 the G435 men, G3588 the ones G2521 sitting G1909 upon G3588 the G5038 wall, G3588   G2068 to eat G3588   G2874.1 their dung, G1473   G2532 and G4095 to drink G3588   G3774.2 their urine G1473   G3326 with G1473 you G260 together?
  28 G2532 And G2476 Rabshakeh stood G*   G2532 and G994 yelled G5456 [2voice G3173 1 with a great] G2454.1 in Jewish, G2532 and G2980 spoke, G2532 and G2036 he said, G191 Hear G3588 the G3056 words G3588 of the G935 king, G3588 of the G3173 great G935 king G* of the Assyrians!
  29 G3592 Thus G3004 says G3588 the G935 king, G3361 Let not G1869 [2lift G1473 3you G* 1Hezekiah]! G3754 for G3766.2 in no way G1410 should he be able G1473 to rescue you G1807   G1537 from out of G5495 my hand. G1473  
  30 G2532 And G3361 let not G1901.1 [2raise your hope G1473   G* 1Hezekiah] G1909 unto G2962 the lord! G3004 saying, G1807 In rescuing, G1807 [3will rescue G1473 4us G3588 1the G2962 2 lord], G2532 and G3766.2 and in no way G3860 shall [2be delivered G3588   G4172 1this city] G3778   G1722 into G5495 the hand G935 of the king G* of the Assyrians.
  31 G3361 Do not G191 listen to G* Hezekiah! G3754 for G3592 thus G3004 says G3588 the G935 king G* of the Assyrians, G4160 Do G3326 for G1473 me G2129 a blessing, G2532 and G1831 come forth G4314 to G1473 me! G2532 and G2068 [2shall eat G1538 1each] G3588   G288 of his grapevine, G1473   G2532 and G1538 each G3588   G4808 of his fig tree, G1473   G2532 and G4095 [2shall drink G1538 1each] G3588   G5204 water G3588   G2978.1 of his well; G1473  
  32 G2193 until G302 whenever G2064 I should come, G2532 and G2983 I should take G1473 you G1519 into G1093 a land G5613 as G3588   G1093 your land, G1473   G1093 a land G4621 of grain G2532 and G3631 wine G2532 and G740 bread G2532 and G290 vineyards, G1093 a land G1637 of olive oil G2532 and G3192 honey, G2532 and G2198 you shall live G2532 and G3756 you shall not die.

  1 H7969 Now it came to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H2396 that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 [H8804] began to reign.
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 [H8800] was he when he began to reign; H4427 [H8804] and he reigned H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem. H517 His mother's H8034 name H21 also was Abi, H1323 the daughter H2148 of Zachariah.
  3 H6213 [H8799] And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the eyes H3068 of the LORD, H1732 according to all that David H1 his father H6213 [H8804] did.
  4 H5493 [H8689] He removed H1116 the high places, H7665 [H8765] and broke H4676 the images, H3772 [H8804] and cut down H842 the groves, H3807 [H8765] and broke in pieces H5178 the brasen H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 [H8804] had made: H3117 for till those days H1121 the sons H3478 of Israel H6999 [H8764] burnt incense H7121 [H8799] to it: and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 [H8804] He trusted H3068 in the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel; H310 so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah, H6440 nor any that were at the face of him.
  6 H1692 [H8799] For he clung H3068 to the LORD, H5493 [H8804] and departed H310 not from following H8104 [H8799] him, but kept H4687 his commandments, H3068 which the LORD H6680 [H8765] commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And the LORD H7919 [H8686] was with him; and he prospered H3318 [H8799] wherever he went forth: H4775 [H8799] and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria, H5647 [H8804] and served him not.
  8 H5221 [H8689] He smote H6430 the Philistines, H5804 even to Gaza, H1366 and its borders, H4026 from the tower H5341 [H8802] of the watchmen H4013 to the fortified H5892 city.
  9 H7243 And it came to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H7637 which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8022 that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 [H8804] came up H8111 against Samaria, H6696 [H8799] and besieged it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 [H8799] they took H8337 it: even in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah, H8672 that is the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8111 Samaria H3920 [H8738] was taken.
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H1540 [H8686] carried away H3478 Israel H804 to Assyria, H5148 [H8686] and put H2477 them in Halah H2249 and in Habor H5104 by the river H1470 of Gozan, H5892 and in the cities H4074 of the Medes:
  12 H8085 [H8804] Because they obeyed H6963 not the voice H3068 of the LORD H430 their God, H5674 [H8799] but transgressed H1285 his covenant, H4872 and all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of the LORD H6680 [H8765] commanded, H8085 [H8804] and would not hear H6213 [H8804] them, nor do them.
  13 H702 H6240 Now in the fourteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 [H8804] came up H1219 [H8803] against all the fortified H5892 cities H3063 of Judah, H8610 [H8799] and took them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 [H8799] sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish, H559 [H8800] saying, H2398 [H8804] I have offended; H7725 [H8798] withdraw H5414 [H8799] from me: that which thou puttest H5375 [H8799] on me I will bear. H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 [H8799] appointed H2396 to Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 [H8799] gave H3701 him all the silver H4672 [H8737] that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of the LORD, H214 and in the treasuries H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 [H8765] cut off H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of the LORD, H547 and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 [H8765] had overlaid, H5414 [H8799] and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 [H8799] sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a heavy H2426 army H3389 against Jerusalem. H5927 [H8799] And they went up H935 [H8799] and came H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 [H8799] And when they had come up, H935 [H8799] they came H5975 [H8799] and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool, H4546 which is in the highway H3526 [H8801] of the fuller's H7704 field.
  18 H7121 [H8799] And when they had called H4428 to the king, H3318 [H8799] there came out H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 [H8802] the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 [H8688] the recorder.
  19 H7262 And Rabshakeh H559 [H8799] said H559 [H8798] to them, Speak H2396 ye now to Hezekiah, H559 [H8804] Thus saith H1419 the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H986 What confidence H982 [H8804] is this in which thou trustest?
  20 H559 [H8804] Thou sayest, H8193 (but they are but vain H1697 words, H6098 ) I have counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war. H982 [H8804] Now in whom dost thou trust, H4775 [H8804] that thou rebellest against me?
  21 H982 [H8804] Now, behold, thou trustest H4938 upon the staff H7533 [H8803] of this bruised H7070 reed, H4714 even upon Egypt, H376 on which if a man H5564 [H8735] leaneth, H935 [H8804] it will go H3709 into his palm, H5344 [H8804] and puncture H6547 it: so is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 [H8802] to all that trust on him.
  22 H559 [H8799] But if ye say H982 [H8804] to me, We trust H3068 in the LORD H430 our God: H1116 is not that he, whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 [H8689] hath taken away, H559 [H8799] and hath said H3063 to Judah H3389 and Jerusalem, H7812 [H8691] Ye shall worship H6440 at the face of H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6148 [H8690] Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges H113 to my sovereign H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H5414 [H8799] and I will give H505 thee two thousand H5483 horses, H3201 [H8799] if thou shalt be able H5414 [H8800] on thy part to set H7392 [H8802] riders upon them.
  24 H7725 [H8686] How then wilt thou turn away H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants, H982 [H8799] and put thy trust H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 [H8804] Have I now come up H1107 without H3068 the LORD H4725 against this place H7843 [H8687] to decay H3068 it? The LORD H559 [H8804] said H5927 [H8798] to me, Go up H776 against this land, H7843 [H8685] and decay it.
  26 H559 [H8799] Then said H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H7644 and Shebna, H3098 and Joah, H7262 to Rabshakeh, H1696 [H8761] Speak, H5650 I pray thee, to thy servants H762 in the Syrian language; H8085 [H8802] for we understand H1696 [H8762] it: and talk H3066 not with us in the Judean's language H241 in the ears H5971 of the people H2346 that are on the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 [H8799] said H113 to them, Hath my master H7971 [H8804] sent H113 me to thy master, H1696 [H8763] and to thee, to speak H1697 these words? H582 hath he not sent me to the men H3427 [H8802] who sit H2346 on the wall, H398 [H8800] that they may eat H6675 H2755 [H8675] their own dung, H8354 [H8800] and drink H4325 H7272 H7890 [H8675] their own urine with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 [H8799] stood H7121 [H8799] and called H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Judean's language, H1696 [H8762] and spoke, H559 [H8799] saying, H8085 [H8798] Hear H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria:
  29 H559 [H8804] Thus saith H4428 the king, H2396 Let not Hezekiah H5377 [H8686] deceive H3201 [H8799] you: for he shall not be able H5337 [H8687] to deliver H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H2396 Neither let Hezekiah H982 [H8686] make you trust H3068 in the LORD, H559 [H8800] saying, H3068 The LORD H5337 [H8687] will surely H5337 [H8686] deliver H5892 us, and this city H5414 [H8735] shall not be given H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 [H8799] Hearken H2396 not to Hezekiah: H559 [H8804] for thus saith H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H6213 [H8798] Make H1293 an agreement with me by a present, H3318 [H8798] and come out H398 [H8798] to me, and then eat H376 ye every man H1612 of his own vine, H376 and every one H8384 of his fig tree, H8354 [H8798] and drink H376 ye every one H4325 the waters H953 of his cistern:
  32 H935 [H8800] Until I come H3947 [H8804] and take you away H776 to a land H776 like your own land, H776 a land H1715 of grain H8492 and wine, H776 a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards, H776 a land H2132 of olive H3323 oil H1706 and of honey, H2421 [H8798] that ye may live, H4191 [H8799] and not die: H8085 [H8799] and hearken H2396 not to Hezekiah, H5496 [H8686] when he persuadeth H559 [H8800] you, saying, H3068 The LORD H5337 [H8686] will deliver us.
  33 H376 Hath any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 [H8689] delivered H5337 [H8687] at all H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath, H774 and of Arpad? H430 where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim, H2012 Hena, H5755 and Ivah? H5337 [H8689] have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the lands, H5337 [H8689] that have delivered H776 their land H3027 out of my hand, H3068 that the LORD H5337 [H8686] should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 [H8689] held their peace, H6030 [H8804] and answered H1697 him not a word: H4428 for the king's H4687 commandment H559 [H8800] was, saying, H6030 [H8799] Answer him not.
  37 H935 [H8799] Then came H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 [H8802] the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 [H8688] the recorder, H2396 to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 [H8803] torn, H5046 [H8686] and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.

Clementine_Vulgate(i) 1 Anno tertio Osee filii Ela regis Israël, regnavit Ezechias filius Achaz regis Juda. 2 Viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare cœpisset, et viginti novem annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Abi filia Zachariæ. 3 Fecitque quod erat bonum coram Domino, juxta omnia quæ fecerat David pater ejus. 4 Ipse dissipavit excelsa, et contrivit statuas, et succidit lucos, confregitque serpentem æneum quem fecerat Moyses: siquidem usque ad illud tempus filii Israël adolebant ei incensum: vocavitque nomen ejus Nohestan. 5 In Domino Deo Israël speravit: itaque post eum non fuit similis ei de cunctis regibus Juda, sed neque in his qui ante eum fuerunt: 6 et adhæsit Domino, et non recessit a vestigiis ejus, fecitque mandata ejus, quæ præceperat Dominus Moysi. 7 Unde et erat Dominus cum eo, et in cunctis ad quæ procedebat, sapienter se agebat. Rebellavit quoque contra regem Assyriorum, et non servivit ei. 8 Ipse percussit Philisthæos usque ad Gazam, et omnes terminos eorum, a turre custodum usque ad civitatem munitam. 9 Anno quarto regis Ezechiæ, qui erat annus septimus Osee filii Ela regis Israël, ascendit Salmanasar rex Assyriorum in Samariam, et oppugnavit eam, 10 et cepit. Nam post annos tres, anno sexto Ezechiæ, id est nono anno Osee regis Israël, capta est Samaria: 11 et transtulit rex Assyriorum Israël in Assyrios, collocavitque eos in Hala et in Habor fluviis Gozan in civitatibus Medorum: 12 quia non audierunt vocem Domini Dei sui, sed prætergressi sunt pactum ejus: omnia quæ præceperat Moyses servus Domini non audierunt, neque fecerunt. 13 Anno quartodecimo regis Ezechiæ, ascendit Sennacherib rex Assyriorum ad universas civitates Juda munitas, et cepit eas. 14 Tunc misit Ezechias rex Juda nuntios ad regem Assyriorum in Lachis, dicens: Peccavi: recede a me, et omne quod imposueris mihi, feram. Indixit itaque rex Assyriorum Ezechiæ regi Judæ trecenta talenta argenti, et triginta talenta auri. 15 Deditque Ezechias omne argentum quod repertum fuerat in domo Domini et in thesauris regis. 16 In tempore illo confregit Ezechias valvas templi Domini, et laminas auri quas ipse affixerat, et dedit eas regi Assyriorum. 17 Misit autem rex Assyriorum Tharthan, et Rabsaris, et Rabsacen de Lachis ad regem Ezechiam cum manu valida Jerusalem: qui cum ascendissent, venerunt Jerusalem, et steterunt juxta aquæductum piscinæ superioris, quæ est in via Agrifullonis. 18 Vocaveruntque regem: egressus est autem ad eos Eliacim filius Helciæ præpositus domus, et Sobna scriba, et Joahe filius Asaph a commentariis. 19 Dixitque ad eos Rabsaces: Loquimini Ezechiæ: Hæc dicit rex magnus, rex Assyriorum: Quæ est ista fiducia, qua niteris? 20 forsitan inisti consilium, ut præpares te ad prælium. In quo confidis, ut audeas rebellare? 21 an speras in baculo arundineo atque confracto Ægypto, super quem, si incubuerit homo, comminutus ingredietur manum ejus, et perforabit eam? sic est Pharao rex Ægypti omnibus qui confidunt in se. 22 Quod si dixeritis mihi: In Domino Deo nostro habemus fiduciam: nonne iste est, cujus abstulit Ezechias excelsa et altaria, et præcepit Judæ et Jerusalem: Ante altare hoc adorabitis in Jerusalem? 23 Nunc igitur transite ad dominum meum regem Assyriorum, et dabo vobis duo millia equorum, et videte an habere valeatis ascensores eorum. 24 Et quomodo potestis resistere ante unum satrapam de servis domini mei minimis? an fiduciam habes in Ægypto propter currus et equites? 25 Numquid sine Domini voluntate ascendi ad locum istum, ut demolirer eum? Dominus dixit mihi: Ascende ad terram hanc, et demolire eam. 26 Dixerunt autem Eliacim filius Helciæ, et Sobna, et Joahe Rabsaci: Precamur ut loquaris nobis servis tuis syriace: siquidem intelligimus hanc linguam: et non loquaris nobis judaice, audiente populo qui est super murum. 27 Responditque eis Rabsaces, dicens: Numquid ad dominum tuum, et ad te misit me dominus meus, ut loquerer sermones hos, et non potius ad viros qui sedent super murum, ut comedant stercora sua, et bibant urinam suam vobiscum? 28 Stetit itaque Rabsaces, et exclamavit voce magna judaice, et ait: Audite verba regis magni, regis Assyriorum. 29 Hæc dicit rex: Non vos seducat Ezechias: non enim poterit eruere vos de manu mea: 30 neque fiduciam vobis tribuat super Dominum, dicens: Eruens liberabit nos Dominus, et non tradetur civitas hæc in manu regis Assyriorum. 31 Nolite audire Ezechiam. Hæc enim dicit rex Assyriorum: Facite mecum quod vobis est utile, et egredimini ad me: et comedet unusquisque de vinea sua, et de ficu sua: et bibetis aquas de cisternis vestris, 32 donec veniam, et transferam vos in terram quæ similis est terræ vestræ, in terram fructiferam, et fertilem vini, terram panis et vinearum, terram olivarum et olei ac mellis: et vivetis, et non moriemini. Nolite audire Ezechiam, qui vos decipit, dicens: Dominus liberabit nos. 33 Numquid liberaverunt dii gentium terram suam de manu regis Assyriorum? 34 ubi est deus Emath, et Arphad? ubi est deus Sepharvaim, Ana, et Ava? numquid liberaverunt Samariam de manu mea? 35 Quinam illi sunt in universis diis terrarum, qui eruerunt regionem suam de manu mea, ut possit eruere Dominus Jerusalem de manu mea? 36 Tacuit itaque populus, et non respondit ei quidquam: siquidem præceptum regis acceperant ut non responderent ei. 37 Venitque Eliacim filius Helciæ, præpositus domus, et Sobna scriba, et Joahe filius Asaph a commentariis ad Ezechiam scissis vestibus, et nuntiaverunt ei verba Rabsacis.
Wycliffe(i) 1 In the thridde yeer of Osee, sone of Hela, kyng of Israel, regnyde Ezechie, sone of Achaz, kyng of Juda. 2 He was of fyue and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde in Jerusalem nyne and twenti yeer; the name of his modir was Abisa, douyter of Zacharie. 3 And he dide that, that was good bifor the Lord, bi alle thingis, which Dauid, his fadir, hadde do. 4 And he distriede hiye places, and al to-brak ymagis, and kittide doun wodis, and he brak the brasun serpent, whom Moyses hadde maad; for `til to that tyme the sones of Israel brenten encense to it; and he clepide the name therof Noestam. 5 And he hopide in the Lord God of Israel; therfor aftir hym noon was lijk hym of alle the kyngis of Juda, but `and nether in tho kyngis that weren bifor hym. 6 And he cleuyde to the Lord, and yede not awei fro hise steppis, and he dide the comaundementis of the Lord, whiche the Lord comaundide to Moises; 7 wherfor and the Lord was with hym, and he gouernede wiseli hym silf in alle thingis, to whiche he yede forth. Also he rebellide ayens the kyng of Assiriens, and therfor he seruede not to `that kyng of Asseriens; 8 and he smoot Philisteis `til to Gazam, and alle the termes of hem, fro the tour of keperis `til to a citee maad strong. 9 In the fourthe yeer of kyng Ezechie, that was the seuenthe yeer of Osee, sone of Hela, kyng of Israel, Salmanazar, kyng of Assiriens, stiede to Samarie, 10 and fauyt ayens it, and took it. For after thre yeer, in the sixte yeer of Ezechie, that is, in the nynthe yeer of Osee, kyng of Israel, Samarie was takun; 11 and the kyng of Assiriens translatide Israel in to Assiriens, and settyde hem in Haila, and in Habor, ryueris of Gozam, in the citees of Medeis; 12 for thei herden not the vois of her Lord God, but thei braken his couenaunt; thei herden not, nether diden alle thingis, whiche Moises, the seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide. 13 In the fourtenthe yeer of kyng Ezechie, Senacherub, kyng of Assiryens, stiede to alle the strengthide citees of Juda, and took tho. 14 Thanne Ezechie, kyng of Juda, sente messangeris to the kyng of Assiriens in to Lachis, and seide, Y haue synned; go awei fro me, and Y schal bere `al thing, which thou schalt putte to me. Therfor the kyng of Asseriens puttide on Ezechie, kyng of Juda, thre hundrid talentis of siluer, and thretti talentis of gold. 15 And Ezechie yaf al the siluer, that was foundun in the hows of the Lord, and in the kyngis tresories. 16 In that tyme Ezechie brak the yatis of the temple of the Lord, and the platis of gold, whiche he hadde fastned, and he yaf tho to the kyng of Assiriens. 17 Forsothe the kyng of Assiriens sente Thercha and Rabsaces fro Lachis to kyng Ezechie, with strong hond to Jerusalem; and whanne thei hadden stied, thei camen to Jerusalem, and stoden bisidis the water cundijt of the hiyere cisterne, which is in the weie of the fullere, `ethir toukere. 18 And thei clepiden the kyng; sotheli Eliachym, sone of Elchie, the souereyn of the hows, and Sobna, scryueyn, and Joahe, chaunseler, the sone of Asaph, yeden out to hem. 19 And Rabsaces seide to hem, Speke ye to Ezechie, The grete kyng, the kyng of Assiriens, seith these thingis, What is this trist, in which thou enforsist? 20 In hap thou hast take counsel, that thou woldist make thee redi to batel. In whom tristist thou, that thou be hardi to rebelle? 21 Whethir thou hopist in a `staf of rehed and brokun, Egipt, on which, if a man lenith, it schal be brokun, and schal entre in to hys hond, and schal peerse it? So is Farao, kyng of Egipt, to alle men that tristen on hym. 22 That if thou seist to me, We han trist in `oure Lord God; whether this is not he, whos hiye thingis and auteris Ezechie took awei, and comaundide to Juda and to Jerusalem, Ye schulen worschipe bifor this auter in Jerusalem? 23 Now therfor passe ye to my lord, the kyng of Assiriens, and Y schal yyue to you twei thousynde of horsis, and se ye, whether ye moun haue rideris of `tho horsis? 24 And hou moun ye withstonde bifor o prince of the leste seruauntis of my lord? Whether thou hast trist in Egipt, for charis and knyytis? 25 Whether Y stiede with outen `Goddis wille to this place, that Y schulde distrie it? `The Lord seide to me, `Stie thou to this lond, and distrie thou it. 26 Forsothe Eliachym, sone of Elchie, and Sobna, and Joahe, seiden to Rabsaces, We preien, that thou speke bi the langage of Sirie to vs, thi seruauntis; for we vndirstondun this langage; and that thou speke not to vs bi the langage of Juwis, while the puple herith, which is on the wal. 27 And Rabsaces answeride, `and seide, Whethir my lord sente me to thi lord and to thee, that Y schulde speke these wordis, and not rather to the men `that sitten on the wal, that thei ete her toordis, and drynke her pisse with you? 28 Therfor Rabsaces stood, and criede with greet vois bi langage of Jewis, and seide, Here ye the wordis of the greet kyng, the kyng of Assiriens. 29 The kyng seith these thingis, Ezechie disceyue not you, for he may not delyuere you fro myn hond; 30 nether yyue he trist to you on the Lord, and seie, The Lord delyuerynge schal delyuere vs, and this citee shal not be bitakun in the hond of the kyng of Assiriens; 31 nyle ye here Ezechie. For the kyng of Assiriens seith these thingis, Do ye with me that, that is profitable to you, and go ye out to me; and eche man schal ete of his vyner, and of his fige tree, and ye schulen drynke watris of youre cisternes, 32 til Y come, and translate you in to a lond which is lijk youre lond, in to a fruytful lond, and plenteuouse of wyn, a lond of breed, and of vineris, a lond of olyue trees, and of oile, and of hony; and ye schulen lyue, and ye schulen not die. Nyle ye here Ezechie, that disseyueth you, and seith, The Lord schal delyuere yow. 33 Whether the goddis of hethene men delyueriden her lond fro the hond of the kyng of Assiriens? 34 Where is god of Emath, and of Arphat? Where is god of Sapharuaym, of Ana, and of Aua? Whether thei delyueriden Samarie fro myn hond? 35 For who ben thei in alle goddis of londis, that delyueriden her cuntrey fro myn hond, that the Lord may delyuere Jerusalem fro myn hoond? 36 Therfor the puple was stille, and answeride not ony thing to hym; for thei hadden take comaundement of the kyng, that thei schulden not answere to hym. 37 And Eliachym, sone of Elchie, the souereyn of the hows, and Sobna, scryuen, and Joahe, chaunceler, the sone of Asaph, camen with to-rent clothis to Ezechie; and telden to hym the wordis of Rabsaces.
Coverdale(i) 1 In the thirde yeare of Oseas ye sonne of Ela kynge of Israel, reigned Ezechias ye sonne of Achas kynge of Iuda. 2 And he was fyue and twentie yeare olde whan he was made kynge, & reigned nyne & twentye yeare at Ierusalem. His mothers name was Abi the doughter of Zachary. 3 And he dyd that which was righte in the sighte of the LORDE, acordinge vnto all as dyd Dauid his father. 4 He put awaye the hye places, and brake downe the pilers, & roted out the groues, and brake the brasen serpente which Moses had made. For vnto that tyme had the children of Israel brent incese vnto it. And it was called Nehusthan. 5 He put his trust in the LORDE God of Israel, so that after him there was not his like amoge all the kynges of Iuda nether had bene before him. 6 He cleued vnto the LORDE, and departed not backe from him, and kepte his commaundementes, which the LORDE had comaunded Moses. 7 And the LORDE was wt him. And whither so euer he wete forth, he behaued him selfe wysely. He resisted the kyn of Assiria, and was not subdued vnto him. 8 He smote the Philistynes also vnto Gasa, and their borders, from the castels vnto the stronge cities. 9 In the fourth yeare of Ezechias kynge of Iuda (yt was the seuenth yeare of Oseas the sonne of Ela kynge of Israel) came Salmanasar the kynge of Assiria vp agaynst Samaria, and layed sege vnto it, 10 and wanne it after thre yeares in the sixte yeare of Ezechias, that is in the nyenth yeare of Oseas kynge of Israel, the was Samaria wonne. 11 And the kynge of Assiria caried Israel awaye vnto Assiria, and set them at Halah and Habor by the water Gosan, and in the cities of the Meedes. 12 And all because they herkened not vnto the voyce of the LORDE their God, and had transgressed his couenaunt: And as for all that Moses the seruaunt of the LORDE had commaunded the, they had nether herkened vnto eny of those, ner done them. 13 In the fourteth yeare of kynge Ezechias dyd Sennacherib ye kynge of Assiria come vp agaynst all the stronge cities of Iuda, & coquered the. 14 Then sent Ezechias the kynge of Iuda to ye kynge of Assiria vnto Lachis, sayenge: I haue offended, turne back fro me: loke what thou layest vnto me, I wil beare it. The the kynge of Assiria layed vnto Ezechias the kynge of Iuda, thre hundreth talentes of syluer, & thirtie talentes of golde. 15 So Ezechias gaue all ye slyuer yt was foude in ye house of the LORDE, & in the treasures of ye kynges house. 16 At ye same tyme brake Ezechias the kynge of Iuda the dores of the teple of ye LORDE, & the plates of golde which he him selfe had caused to laye ouer the, & gaue the vnto the kynge of Assiria. 17 And the kynge of Assiria sent Thartan, and the chefe chamberlayne, & the chefe butler from Lachis to kynge Ezechias with a greate power vnto Ierusalem. And they wete vp: and whan they came there, they stode styll at the condyte by the ouer pole, which lyeth in the waye vpo the fullers londe, 18 and called vnto the kynge. The came there forth vnto them Eliachim the sonne of Helchias the stewarde, and Sobna the scrybe, & Ioah the sonne of Assaph the Secretary. 19 And the chefe butler sayde vnto the: Tell kynge Ezechias: Thus sayeth ye greate kynge, eue the kynge of Assiria: What presumpcion is this yt thou trustest vnto? 20 Thinkest thou, yt thou hast yet councell and power to fighte? Where vnto trustest thou then, that thou art fallen of fro me? 21 Beholde, puttest thou thy trust in this broken staffe of rede, in Egipte? which who leaneth vpon, it shall go into his hande, & pearse it thorow. Euen so is Pharao the kynge of Egipte vnto all them that put their trust in him. 22 But yf ye wolde saye vnto me: We put oure trust in ye LORDE oure God. Is not that he, whose hye places and altares Ezechias hath take downe, and sayde vnto Iuda and Ierusale: Before this altare which is at Ierusale, shal ye worshippe? 23 Make a multitude now therfore vnto my lorde the kynge of Assiria, and I wil geue ye two thousande horses, let se yf thou be able to man them: 24 how wilt thou then endure before the smallest prynce of my lordes subiectes? And trustest thou vnto Egipte because of the charettes and horsmen? 25 But thinkest thou that I came vp hither without ye LORDE to destroye these cities? The LORDE hath commaunded me: Go vp in to that londe and destroye it. 26 Then sayde Eliachim the sonne of Helchia & Sobna and Ioah vnto the chefe butler: Speake to thy seruauntes in the Syrias language, for we vnderstonde it, and speake not vnto vs in the Iewes speche before the eares of the people that are vpon the wall. 27 Neuertheles ye chefe butler sayde vnto the: Hath my lorde then sent me vnto thy lorde, or to the, to speake these wordes? Yee euen vnto the men, which syt vpon the wall, that they maye eate their owne donge and drynke their owne stale wt you. 28 So the chefe butler stode and cried with loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake and sayde: Heare the worde of the greate kynge the kynge of Assiria. 29 Thus sayeth the kynge: Let not Ezechias disceaue you, for he is not able to delyuer you fro my hade: 30 & let not Ezechias make you to trust in the LORDE, sayenge: The LORDE shall delyuer vs, and this cite shal not be geuen in to the handes of ye kynge of Assiria. 31 Folowe not ye Ezechias, for thus sayeth the kynge of Assiria: Do me this blessynge, and come forth vnto me, so shal eueryman eate of his vyne and of his fygge tre, and drynke of his well, 32 tyll I come my selfe and fetch you in to a londe, which is like youre awne lode, wherin is corne, wyne, bred, vynyardes, oyle trees, oyle and hony, so shal ye lyue, and not dye. Folowe not ye Ezechias, for he disceaueth you, when he sayeth: The LORDE shal delyuer vs. 33 Haue the goddes of the Heythen delyuered eueryone his londe from the hande of the kynge of Assiria? 34 Where are the goddes of Hemath and Arphad? Where are the goddes of Sepharnaim Hena and Iua? Haue they delyuered Samaria fro my hande? 35 Where is there one god amonge the goddes of all londes, which hath delyuered his londe fro my hande? that the LORDE shulde delyuer Ierusalem fro my hande. 36 As for the people, they helde their peace, and gaue him no answere: for the kynge had commaunded and sayde: Answere him nothinge. 37 Then came Eliachim the sonne of Helchia ye stewarde, and Sobna the scrybe, and Ioah the sonne of Assaph the Secretary vnto Ezechias with rente clothes, and tolde him the wordes of the chefe butler.
MSTC(i) 1 In the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, reigned Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah. 2 Twenty five years old was he, when he began to reign, and reigned twenty nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zachariah, 3 and he did that pleased the LORD in all things, like to David his father. 4 He put away the hill altars, and brake the images and cut down the groves, and all to brake the brazen serpent that Moses made — for unto those days the children of Israel did burn sacrifice to it, and called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel, so that after him came none like him among all the kings of Judah, neither among them that went before him. 6 He clave to the LORD and departed not from him, but kept his commandments which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him. And whatsoever he took in hand he did it wisely. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria and served him not. 8 He beat the Philistines even unto Gaza and the coasts thereof, both in castles of garrisons and strong cities too. 9 And the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, came Shalmaneser king of Assyria upon Samaria and besieged it. 10 And they took it at the end of three years, which was the sixth of Hezekiah: that is to say the ninth year of Hosea king of Israel, was Samaria won. 11 And the king of Assiria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor on the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 because they would not hearken unto the voice of the LORD their God. But transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would neither hear nor do. 13 The fourteenth year of king Hezekiah came Sennacherib king of Assyria against all the strong cities of Judah and took them. 14 Whereupon Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, "I have offended. But depart from me, and what thou puttest on me that I will bear." And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD and also in the treasure of the king's house. 16 And the said season Hezekiah rent off the doors of the temple of the LORD and the pillars, which the said Hezekiah king of Judah covered over, and gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh, from Lachish, to king Hezekiah with a great Host to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and went and stood by the conduit of the uppermost pool, which is in the way to the fuller's field, 18 and called to the king. And there came out to them, Eliakim the son of Hilkiah steward of household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder. 19 And then Rabshakeh said unto them, "Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, 'Thus sayeth the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this that thou hast? 20 Thou wilt haply speak a light word, that thou hast counsel and power to make war. On whom then dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? 21 Dost thou trust to the staff of this broken reed Egypt, on which if a man lean it will run into his hand and pierce it? For even so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 If ye say unto me, 'We trust in the LORD our God' — Is not that he whose hill altars and other altars too, Hezekiah hath put down, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, 'Bow yourselves before this altar here in Jerusalem'? 23 And now join thyself to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders upon them: 24 and, if thou be not, how then art thou able to resist one of the least dukes of my master's servants? Or trustest thou to Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 Moreover, thinkest thou that I am come without the bidding of the LORD to this place to destroy it? Nay: the LORD said to me, 'Go up to this land, and destroy it.''" 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah and Shebnah and Joah, to Rabshakeh, "Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrians' language, for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' tongue, in the ears of the people that are on the walls." 27 And Rabshakeh said unto them, "Hath my master sent me only to thy master and to thee, to speak these words? Or rather to the men that keep on the walls, that they shall eat their own dirt, and drink their own piss with you?" 28 And so Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake saying, "Hear the saying of the great king, the king of Assyria! 29 Thus sayeth the king, 'Let not Hezekiah beguile you, for he is not able to deliver you out of mine hand: 30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust to the LORD, saying: the LORD will surely rid us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hands of the king of Assyria.' 31 Hearken not unto Hezekiah, for thus sayeth the king of Assyria, 'Deal kindly with me, and come out to me. And then eat every man of his own vine, and of his own fig tree, and drink every man of the water of his own well, 32 till I come and fetch you to as good a land as yours is: a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees, of oil and of honey. And ye shall live and not die. And hearken not unto Hezekiah for he will beguile you, saying: the LORD shall deliver us.' 33 For have the Gods of the nations delivered any God his land, out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the Gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the Gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena and Ivvah? Did they deliver Samaria out of mine hands? 35 What God of any land hath delivered his land out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand?" 36 But the people held their peace and answered him not a word: for the king had commanded, saying, "Answer him not." 37 Then Eliakim the steward of household, and Shebnah the scribe and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Matthew(i) 1 The thyrde yeare of Hosea sonne of Ela, kynge of Israell raigned Hezekiah sonne of Ahaz kyng of Iuda. 2 Twentye and fyue yeare olde was he, when he beganne to raygne, & raygned .xxix. yeare in Ierusalem. Hys mothers name was Abi the doughter of Zachariah, 3 & he dyd that pleased the Lorde in all thynge, lyke to Dauid hys father. 4 He put awaye the hyllaultares & brake the Images, & cut doune the groues, & all to brake the brasen serpente that Moses made. For vnto those dayes the chyldren of Israell dyd burne sacryfyce to it, and called it Nehustan. 5 He trusted in the Lorde God of Israel, so that after hym came none lyke hym amonge al the kynges of Iuda, neyther amonge them that went before hym. 6 He claue to the Lorde, & departed not from hym, but kept hys commaundementes whiche the Lorde commaunded Moses. 7 And the Lorde was wyth hym. And whatsoeuer he toke in hande, he dyd it wysely. And he rebelled agaynste the kynge of Assyrya, & serued hym not. 8 He bet the Philistines euen vnto Azah and the coastes thereof, bothe in castels of garysons and stronge cytyes to. 9 And the fourthe yeare of kynge Hezekiah, whiche was the seuenthe yeare of Hosea sonne of Ela kynge of Israel, came Salmanasar kynge of Assyrya vpon Samaria, & beseged it. 10 And they toke it at the ende of thre yeare, which was the sixte of Hezekiah: that is to say the nynthe yeare of Hosea kynge of Israell, was Samaria wonne. 11 And the kynge of Assyrya dyd carye awaye Israel vnto Assyrya, & put them in Halah & in Habor on the ryuer of Gozan, & in the cytyes of Medes: 12 because they wolde not herken vnto the voyce of the Lorde theyr God. But transgressed hys appoyntemente, and all that Moses the seruaunt of the Lord commaunded, and wolde neyther heare nor do. 13 The .xiiij. yeare of Kynge Hezekiah came Sennaherib kynge of Assyrya agaynste all the stronge cytyes of Iuda, and toke them. 14 Whervpon Hezekiah kyng of Iuda sent to the kyng of Assyria to Lachis saying: I haue offended. But depart from me, and what thou putteste on me that wyll I beare. And the kynge of Assyria appoynted vnto Hezekiah kynge of Iuda thre hundred talentes of syluer, and thyrtye talentes of golde. 15 And Hezekiah gaue hym all the syluer that was founde in the house of the Lorde, and also in the treasure of the kynges house. 16 And the sayde ceason Hezekiah rente of the dores of the temple of the Lorde and the pyllers whiche the sayde Hezekiah kynge of Iuda couered ouer, & gaue them to the kynge of Assyrya. 17 And the kinge of Assyrya sent Tarthan & Rabsaris & Rabsakeh from Lachis to kynge Hezekiah with a greate Host to Ierusalem. And they went vp & came to Ierusalem, & wente & stode by the conduyte of the vppermoste pole which is in the waye to the fullers felde, 18 and called to the kynge. And there came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Belkiah stuard of housholde & Sobnah the scrybe, & Ioah the sonne of Asaph, the recorder. 19 And then Rabsakeh sayde to them. Tell ye Hezekiah I praye you: thus sayth the greate kynge the kyng of Assyria. What confidence is this that thou haste? 20 thou wylt haplye speake a lyghte worde, that thou hast councell & powre to make warre. On whome then doest thou truste, that thou rebellest agaynst me? 21 doeste thou truste to the staffe of this broken rede Egypte, on which yf a man lene, it wyll runne into hys hande & perce it. For euen so is Pharao kynge of Egypt vnto all that truste on hym. 22 If ye saye vnto me we trust in the Lorde oure God. Is not that he whose hyllaulters and other aulters to, Hezekiah hath put doune, & hath sayde to Iuda and Ierusalem, bow youre selues before thys aulter here in Ierusalem. 23 And now ioyne thy self to my Lord the king of Assyrya, & I wyll delyuer the two thousande horses, yf thou be able to set ryders vpon them: 24 (and yf thou be not) how then arte thou able to resist one of the leste Dukes of my maisters seruauntes? or trustest thou to Egypte for charettes and horsmen? 25 Moreouer thinkest thou, that I am come wythoute the byddynge of the Lorde to this place to destroye it? naye: the lord sayde to me, go vp to this lande & destroye it. 26 Then sayd Eliakim the sonne of Helkiah and Sobnah & Ioah, to Rabsakeh: speake we pray the to thy seruaunts in the Syryans language for we vnderstande it: & talke not wyth vs in the Iewes tonge, in the eares of the people that are on the walles. 27 And Rabsakeh sayde vnto them: hath my mayster sente me onely to thy mayster and to the, to speake these wordes, or rather to the men that kepe the walles, that they shall eate theyr owne dyrte and dryncke their owne pysse with you. 28 And so Rabsakeh stode and cryed wyth a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake sayinge: heare the sayinge of the great kynge the kyng of Assyrya. 29 Thus sayth the king: let not Hezekiah begyle you, for he is not able to delyuer you out of myne hand: 30 neyther let Hezekiah make you truste to the Lorde sayinge: the Lorde shall surely ryd vs, and thys cytye shall not be deliuered into the handes of the kyng of Assyrya. 31 Herken not vnto Hezekiah, for thus sayth the kynge of Assyrya. Deale kyndely with me, & come out to me. And then eate euery man of hys owne vyne, & of hys owne fygge tree, & drincke euery man of the water of hys owne welle, 32 tyll I come, and fet you to as good a lande as youres is: a lande of corne and wyne, a lande of breade & vyneyardes, a lande of olyue trees, of oyle & of hony. And ye shal lyue and not dye. And herken not vnto Hezekiah for he wyll begyle you, sayinge: the Lorde shall delyuer vs. 33 For haue the Gods of the nacyons delyuered any God hys lande, out of the hande of the kyng of Assiria? 34 where are the Gods of Hemath & of Arphad? where are the Gods of Sepharuaim, of Ana, and Aphah? dyd they delyuer Samaria out of myne handes? 35 what God of any land hath deliuered his lande out of mine hand, that the lorde shoulde delyuer Ierusalem out of myne hande. 36 But the people helde their peace and answered not hym a worde: for the kynge had commaunded sayinge: answere him not. 37 Then Eliakim the stuard of the houshold and Sobnah the scrybe, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde hym the wordes of Rabsakeh.
Great(i) 1 In the thyrde yere of Hosea sonne of Ela kynge of Israel it came to passe, that Hezekia the sonne of Ahaz kyng of Iuda dyd raynge. 2 Twentye and fyue yere olde was he, when he beganne to raygne, and raygned .xxix. yere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zacharia, 3 and he dyd that which is ryght in the syght of the Lorde accordyng to all as dyd Dauid hys father. 4 He put awaye the hyllaulters, and brake the ymages and cut downe the groues, and all to brake the brasen serpent that Moses had made: For vnto those dayes the chyldren of Israel dyd burne sacrifice to it, & he called it Nehustan. 5 He trusted in the Lorde God of Israel, so that after hym was none lyke him amonge all the kynges of Iuda, nether were there anye soche before hym. 6 For he claue to the Lorde; and departed not from hym, but kepte hys commaundementes, which the Lorde commaunded Moses. 7 And the Lorde was with hym: so that he prospered in all thynges which he toke in hande. And he rebelled agaynst the kynge of Assyria, and serued him not. 8 He smote the Philistines euen vnto Aza and the coastes therof, both castels where they kepte watches: and stronge cyties. 9 And in the fourth yeare of kynge Hezekia, (which was the seuenth yeare of Hosea sonne of Ela kynge of Israell) it fortuned, that Salmanazar kyng of Assyria came vp agaynst Samaria, & beseged it. 10 And after thre yeres they toke it euen in the syxte yere of Hezekia: that is to saye, the nynth yere of Hosea kynge of Israel. And Samaria was wonne. 11 And the kynge of Assyria, dyd carye awaye Israel vnto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the ryuer of Gozan, and in the cyties of the Medes: 12 because they wolde not herken vnto the voyce of the Lorde theyr God: but transgressed hys appoyntment, and all that Moses the seruaunt of the Lord commaunded, & wolde nether heare them nor do them. 13 Therfore in the .xiiii. yeare of kynge Hezekia dyd Sennacherib kynge of Assyria come vp agaynst all the stronge cytyes of Iuda, and toke them. 14 And Hezekia kynge of Iuda sent to the kynge of Assyria to Lachis, saying: I haue offended: departe from me, and all that thou puttest on me, that will I beare. And the kynge of Assyria appoynted vnto Hezekia kynge of Iuda thre hundred talentes of syluer, & thirtye talentes of gold. 15 And Hezekia gaue him all the syluer that was founde in the house of the Lorde, & in the treasures of the kynges house. 16 At the same ceason dyd Hezekia rent of the dores of the temple of the Lorde & the pillers (whych the sayde Hezekia kynge of Iuda had couered ouer) & gaue them to the kynge of Assyria. 17 And the kynge of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rabsaris and Rabsake from Lachis to kynge Hezekia with a great Hoste agaynst Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, & gat them vp, & stode by the conduyte of the vpper pole which is in the waye of the fullers felde. 18 And whan they had called to the kynge, there came out to them, Eliakim the sonne of Elkia which was stuarde of housholde, and Sobna the scribe, & Ioah the sonne of Asaph, the recorder. 19 And Rabsake sayde vnto them: Tell ye Hezekia I praye you: thus sayth the great kynge, euen the kynge of Assyria: What confidence is this that thou hast? Dost thou speake soche a lyght worde in dede? 20 By councell and power I wilbe ready to make warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest agaynst me? 21 dost thou truste to the staffe of this broken rede Egypte, on which yf a man leane, it wyll go into his hande, and pearce it. Euen so is Pharao kynge of Egypte vnto all that trust on him. 22 If ye saye vnto me, we trust in the Lorde oure God: Is not that he whose hilaulters and his other aulters, Hezekia hath put downe, and hath sayde to Iuda & Ierusalem, ye shall worshyppe before this aulter here in Ierusalem. 23 Nowe therfore delyuer wardes to my Lorde the kynge of Assyria, that ye rebell not, & I wyll delyuer the two thousande horses, yf thou be able to sett ryders vpon them: 24 Why thynkest thou scorne at the presence of one of the leest Dukes of my masters seruauntes, & trustest to Egypte for charettes and horsmen? 25 Moreouer, am I come now without the byddinge of the Lorde to this place, to destroye it? the Lorde sayde to me: go vp to this lande, and destroye it. 26 And Eliakim the sonne of Helkia & Sobna, & Ioab sayde vnto Rabsake: speake (I praye the) to thy seruauntes in the Syrians language, for we vnderstande it: & talke not wt vs in the Iewes tonge, in the eares of this people that are on the wall. 27 And Rabsake sayde vnto them: hath my master sent me to thy master and to the, to speake these wordes? Hath he not sent me because of the men which sytt on the wall, that they maye eate their awne donge, & dryncke their awne pisse with you? 28 And so Rabsake stode, and cryed with a lowde voyce in the Iewes language, and spake sayinge: heare the sayinge of the great kynge of Assyria. 29 Thus sayth the kynge: let not Hezekia begile you, for he shall not be able to delyuer you out of myne hande: 30 nether let Hezekia make you to trust in the Lorde, sayinge: the Lorde shall surely delyuer vs, and this cytie shall not be geuen ouer into the hande of the kynge of Assyria. 31 Herken not vnto Hezekia, for thus sayth the kynge of Assyria. Deale kyndely with me, & come out to me. And then eate euery man of his awne vyne, and of his awne fygge tree, & dryncke euery man of the water of his awne well, 32 tyll I come, and fett you to as good a lande as youres is: a lande of corne and wyne, a lande of bread and vyneyardes, a lande of oyle, of olyue trees, and of hony: that ye maye lyue, and not dye. And herken not vnto Hezekia, for he begyleth you, sayinge: the Lorde shall delyuer vs. 33 Hath euery one of the Gods of the nacyons deliuered his lande, out of the hande of the kynge of Assyria? 34 where is the God of Hamath, & of Arphad? and where is the God of Sepharuaim, Hena & Iua? dyd they delyuer Samaria out of myne hande, 35 & what God is it amonge all the goddes of the nacyons, that hath delyuered his lande out of myne hande, Shall the Lorde deliuer Ierusalem out of myne hande? 36 But they that were of the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the kynge had commaunded, sayinge: answere him not. 37 Then Eliakim which was the stuard of housholde, and Sobnah the scribe, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekia with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabsake.
Geneva(i) 1 Now in the third yeere of Hoshea, sonne of Elah King of Israel, Hezekiah the sonne of Ahaz king of Iudah began to reigne. 2 He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twenty yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zachariah, 3 And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Dauid his father had done. 4 He tooke away the hie places, and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for vnto those dayes the children of Israel did burne incense to it, and hee called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel: so that after him was none like him among all the Kings of Iudah, neither were there any such before him. 6 For he claue to the Lord, and departed not from him, but kept his commandements, which the Lord had commanded Moses. 7 So the Lord was with him, and he prospered in all thinges, which he tooke in hande: also he rebelled against the King of Asshur, and serued him not. 8 He smote the Philistims vnto Azzah, and the coastes thereof, from the watch towre vnto the defensed citie. 9 And in the fourth yere of King Hezekiah, (which was the seuenth yeere of Hoshea sonne of Elah King of Israel) Shalmaneser King of Asshur came vp against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And after three yeeres they tooke it, euen in the sixt yeere of Hezekiah: that is, the ninth yeere of Hoshea King of Israel was Samaria taken. 11 Then the King of Asshur did carry away Israel vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 Because they woulde not obey the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his couenant: that is, all that Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded, and would neyther obey nor doe them. 13 Moreouer, in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against all the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them. 14 Then Hezekiah King of Iudah sent vnto the King of Asshur to Lachish, saying, I haue offended: depart from me, and what thou layest vpon me, I wil beare it. And the King of Asshur appoynted vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah three hudreth talents of siluer, and thirty talets of golde. 15 Therefore Hezekiah gaue all the siluer that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house. 16 At the same season did Hezekiah pul off the plates of the doores of the Temple of the Lord, and the pillars (which the sayd Hezekiah King of Iudah had couered ouer) and gaue them to the King of Asshur. 17 And the King of Asshur sent Tartan, and Rab-saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great hoste against Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, and when they were come vp, they stood by the conduite of the vpper poole, which is by the path of the fullers fielde, 18 And called to the King. Then came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus saith the great King, euen the great King of Asshur, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou thinkest, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? 21 Lo, thou trustest now in this broken staffe of reede, to wit, on Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt vnto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say vnto me, We trust in the Lord our God, is not that he whose hie places, and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath sayd to Iudah and Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Ierusalem? 23 Now therefore giue hostages to my lord the King of Asshur, and I will giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders vpon them. 24 For how canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my masters seruants, and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and horsemen? 25 Am I now come vp without the Lord to this place, to destroy it? the Lord sayd to me, Goe vp against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Ioah said vnto Rabshakeh, Speake I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, for we vnderstand it, and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh saide vnto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speake these words, and not to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you? 28 So Rabshakeh stoode and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the king of Asshur. 29 Thus sayth the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you out of mine hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs, and this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the king of Asshur. 31 Hearken not vnto Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne figge tree, and drinke euery man of the water of his owne well, 32 Till I come, and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oliues oyle, and hony, that ye may liue and not die: and obey not Hezekiah, for he deceiueth you, saying, The Lord will deliuer vs. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his lande out of the hand of the King of Asshur? 34 Where is the god of Hamah, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? how haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that haue deliuered their lande out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand? 36 But the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere ye him not. 37 Then Eliakim, the sonne of Hilkiah which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
Bishops(i) 1 In the thirde yere of Hosea sonne of Ela king of Israel, it came to passe that Hezekia ye sonne of Ahaz king of Iuda did raigne 2 Twentie and fyue yeres olde was he when he began to raigne, and raigned twentie and nine yeres in Hierusalem: His mothers name also was Abi, ye daughter of Zacharia 3 And he dyd that whiche is right in the sight of the Lord, according to al as did Dauid his father 4 He put away the high places, & brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and all to brake the brasen serpent that Moyses had made: For vnto those dayes the children of Israel dyd burne sacrifice to it: and he called it Nehustan 5 He trusted in the Lorde God of Israel, so that after him was none lyke him among all the kinges of Iuda, neither were there any such before him 6 For he claue to the Lorde, and departed not from him: but kept his commaundementes, which the Lorde commaunded Moyses 7 And the Lorde was with him, so that he prospered in all thinges whiche he toke in hande: And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and serued him not 8 He smote the Philistines euen vnto Azza & the coastes therof, both castels where they kept watches, and strong cities 9 And in the fourth yere of king Hezekia, (whiche was the seuenth yere of Hosea sonne of Ela king of Israel) it fortuned that Salmanazar king of Assyria came vp against Samaria, and besieged it 10 And after three yeres they toke it: euen in the sixth yere of Hezekia (that is to say the nynth yere of Hosea king of Israel) Samaria was wonne 11 And the king of Assyria dyd cary away Israel vnto Assyria, & put them in Halah and in Habor by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes 12 Because they woulde not hearken vnto the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his appoyntment, and all that Moyses the seruaunt of the Lorde commaunded: and would neither heare them, nor do them 13 Therfore in the fourteenth yere of king Hezekia, did Semacherib king of Assyria come vp against all the strong cities of Iuda, and toke them 14 And Hezekia king of Iuda sent to the king of Assyria to Lachis, saying: I haue offended: depart from me, and all that thou puttest on me, that will I beare. And the king of Assyria appoynted vnto Hezekia king of Iuda three hundred talentes of siluer, and thirtie talentes of golde 15 And Hezekia gaue him all the siluer that was founde in the house of the Lorde, & in the treasures of the kinges hous 16 At the same season dyd Hezekia rent of the doores of the temple of the Lorde and the pillers (whiche the sayde Hezekia king of Iuda had couered ouer) and gaue them to the king of Assyria 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan, and Rabsaris, & Rabsakeh from Lachis, to king Hezekia with a great hoast against Hierusalem: And they went vp, and came to Hierusalem, and gat them vp and stoode by the conduite of the vpper poole, whiche is in the way of the fullers fielde 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Elkia, which was stewarde of the houshold, and Sobna the scribe, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph, the recorder 19 And Rabsakeh sayd vnto them: Tell ye Hezekia I pray you, thus sayth the great king, euen the king of Assyria: what confidence is this that thou hast 20 Thou thinkest surely I haue eloquece, but counsell and strength are for the warre: On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me 21 Doest thou trust to the staffe of this broken reede Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will go into his hande, & pearse it: Euen so is Pharao king of Egypt vnto all that trust on hym 22 If ye say vnto me, we trust in the Lorde our God: Is not that he whose hygh places and whose aulters Hezekia hath put downe? and hath sayd to Iuda and Hierusalem, ye shall worship before this aulter here in Hierusalem 23 Nowe therfore I pray thee geue hostages to my lorde the king of Assyria, and I will deliuer thee two thousande horses, if thou be able to set ryders vpon them 24 Why thinkest thou scorne at the presence of one of the least Dukes of my maisters seruauntes, and trustest to Egypt for charets and horsmen 25 Moreouer, am I come nowe without the bidding of the Lorde to this place, to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go vp to this lande, and destroy it 26 And Eliakim the sonne of Helkia, and Sobna, & Ioah, sayde vnto Rabsakeh: Speake I pray thee to thy seruauntes in the Syrians language (for we vnderstande it) and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue in the eares of this people that are on the wall 27 And Rabsakeh sayde vnto them: Hath my maister sent me to thy maister and thee, to speake these wordes? Hath he not sent me because of the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne dongue, & drinke their owne pisse with you 28 And so Rabsakeh stoode, & cryed with a lowde voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying: Heare the wordes of the great king, euen of the king of Assyria 29 Thus sayth the king: Let not Hezekia beguile you, for he shal not be able to deliuer you out of myne hande 30 Neither let Hezekia make you to trust in the Lorde, saying, The Lorde shall surely deliuer vs, & this citie shall not be geuen ouer into the hande of the king of Assyria 31 Hearken not vnto Hezekia: For thus sayth the king of Assyria, Deale kindely with me, and come out to me, and then eate euery man of his owne vine, and of his owne figge tree, and drincke euery man of the water of his owne well 32 Till I come, and set you to as good a lande as yours is, a lande of corne and wine, a lande of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oyle, of olyue trees, and of hony, that ye may liue, and not dye: And hearken not vnto Hezekia, for he beguileth you, saying: The Lorde shall deliuer vs 33 Hath euery one of the gods of the nations deliuered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria 34 Where is the god of Hamath, & of Arphad? and where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena, and Iua? Dyd they deliuer Samaria out of myne hande 35 And what god is among al the gods of the nations, that hath deliuered his land out of myne hande? Shall the Lorde deliuer Hierusalem out of myne hande 36 But the people held their peace, and aunswered not him a word: for the king had commaunded, saying: Aunswere hym not 37 Then Eliakim the sonne of Helkia, which was the steward of the houshold, and Sobna the scribe, & Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekia with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabsakeh
DouayRheims(i) 1 In the third year of Osee, the son of Ela, king of Israel, reigned Ezechias, the son of Achaz, king of Juda. 2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abi, the daughter of Zacharias. 3 And he did that which was good before the Lord, according to all that David, his father, had done 4 He destroyed the high places, and broke the statues in pieces, and cut down the groves, and broke the brazen serpent, which Moses had made: for till that time the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called its name Nohestan. 5 He trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel: so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Juda, nor any of them that were before him: 6 And he stuck to the Lord, and departed not from his steps, but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses. 7 Wherefore the Lord also was with him, and in all things, to which he went forth, he behaved himself wisely. And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh vear of Osee, the son of Ela, king of Israel, Salmanasar, king of the Assyrians, came up to Samaria, and besieged it, 10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee, king of Israel, Samaria was taken: 11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hala, and in Habor, by the rivers of Gozan, in the cities of the Medes. 12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord, their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses, the servant of the Lord, commanded, they would not hear, nor do. 13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib, king of the Assyrians, came up against the fenced cities of Juda, and took them. 14 Then Ezechias, king of Juda, sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians, to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias, king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king's treasures. 16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians. 17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan, and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces, from Lachis, to king Ezechias, with a strong army, to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller's field. 18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim, the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna, the scribe, and Joahe, the son of Asaph, the recorder. 19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest? 20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel? 21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao, king of Egypt, to all that trust in him. 22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord, our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore come over to my master, the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them. 24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master's servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land, and destroy it. 26 Then Eliacim, the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe, said to Rabsaces: We pray thee, speak to us, thy servants, in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall. 27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you? 28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said: Hear the word of the great king, the king of the Assyrians. 29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand. 30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians. 31 Do not hearken to Ezechias. For thus saith the king of the Assyrians: Do with me that which is for your advantage, and come out to me: and every man of you shall eat of his own vineyard, and of his own fig tree: and you shall drink water of your own cisterns, 32 Till I come, and take you away, to a land, like to your own land, a fruitful land, and plentiful in wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives, and oil, and honey, and you shall live, and not die. Hearken not to Ezechias, who deceiveth you, saying: The Lord will deliver us. 33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their land from the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where is the god of Emath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Ana, and of Ava? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord may deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for they had received commandment from the king that they should not answer him. 37 And Eliacim, the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna, the scribe, and Joahe, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Ezechias, with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rabsaces.
KJV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. 6 For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is in the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou sayest, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern: 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

  1 H7969 Now it came to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel H2396 , that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 began to reign [H8804]  .
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 was he when he began to reign [H8800]   H4427 ; and he reigned [H8804]   H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem H517 . His mother's H8034 name H21 also was Abi H1323 , the daughter H2148 of Zachariah.
  3 H6213 And he did [H8799]   H3477 that which was right H5869 in the sight H3068 of the LORD H1732 , according to all that David H1 his father H6213 did [H8804]  .
  4 H5493 He removed [H8689]   H1116 the high places H7665 , and brake [H8765]   H4676 the images H3772 , and cut down [H8804]   H842 the groves H3807 , and brake in pieces [H8765]   H5178 the brasen H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 had made [H8804]   H3117 : for unto those days H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H6999 did burn incense [H8764]   H7121 to it: and he called [H8799]   H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 He trusted [H8804]   H3068 in the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H310 ; so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah H6440 , nor any that were before him.
  6 H1692 For he clave [H8799]   H3068 to the LORD H5493 , and departed [H8804]   H310 not from following H8104 him, but kept [H8799]   H4687 his commandments H3068 , which the LORD H6680 commanded [H8765]   H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And the LORD H7919 was with him; and he prospered [H8686]   H3318 whithersoever he went forth [H8799]   H4775 : and he rebelled [H8799]   H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria H5647 , and served [H8804]   him not.
  8 H5221 He smote [H8689]   H6430 the Philistines H5804 , even unto Gaza H1366 , and the borders H4026 thereof, from the tower H5341 of the watchmen [H8802]   H4013 to the fenced H5892 city.
  9 H7243 And it came to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H7637 , which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel H8022 , that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came up [H8804]   H8111 against Samaria H6696 , and besieged [H8799]   it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 they took [H8799]   H8337 it: even in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah H8672 , that is the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel H8111 , Samaria H3920 was taken [H8738]  .
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H1540 did carry away [H8686]   H3478 Israel H804 unto Assyria H5148 , and put [H8686]   H2477 them in Halah H2249 and in Habor H5104 by the river H1470 of Gozan H5892 , and in the cities H4074 of the Medes:
  12 H8085 Because they obeyed [H8804]   H6963 not the voice H3068 of the LORD H430 their God H5674 , but transgressed [H8799]   H1285 his covenant H4872 , and all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of the LORD H6680 commanded [H8765]   H8085 , and would not hear [H8804]   H6213 them, nor do [H8804]   them .
  13 H702 Now in the fourteenth H6240   H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 did Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 come up [H8804]   H1219 against all the fenced [H8803]   H5892 cities H3063 of Judah H8610 , and took [H8799]   them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 sent [H8799]   H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish H559 , saying [H8800]   H2398 , I have offended [H8804]   H7725 ; return [H8798]   H5414 from me: that which thou puttest [H8799]   H5375 on me will I bear [H8799]   H4428 . And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 appointed [H8799]   H2396 unto Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 gave [H8799]   H3701 him all the silver H4672 that was found [H8737]   H1004 in the house H3068 of the LORD H214 , and in the treasures H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 cut off [H8765]   H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of the LORD H547 , and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 had overlaid [H8765]   H5414 , and gave [H8799]   H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 sent [H8799]   H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 host H3389 against Jerusalem H5927 . And they went up [H8799]   H935 and came [H8799]   H3389 to Jerusalem H5927 . And when they were come up [H8799]   H935 , they came [H8799]   H5975 and stood [H8799]   H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool H4546 , which is in the highway H3526 of the fuller's [H8801]   H7704 field.
  18 H7121 And when they had called [H8799]   H4428 to the king H3318 , there came out [H8799]   H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H1004 , which was over the household H7644 , and Shebna H5608 the scribe [H8802]   H3098 , and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder [H8688]  .
  19 H7262 And Rabshakeh H559 said [H8799]   H559 unto them, Speak [H8798]   H2396 ye now to Hezekiah H559 , Thus saith [H8804]   H1419 the great H4428 king H4428 , the king H804 of Assyria H986 , What confidence H982 is this wherein thou trustest [H8804]  ?
  20 H559 Thou sayest [H8804]   H8193 , (but they are but vain H1697 words H6098 ,) I have counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war H982 . Now on whom dost thou trust [H8804]   H4775 , that thou rebellest [H8804]   against me?
  21 H982 Now, behold, thou trustest [H8804]   H4938 upon the staff H7533 of this bruised [H8803]   H7070 reed H4714 , even upon Egypt H376 , on which if a man H5564 lean [H8735]   H935 , it will go [H8804]   H3709 into his hand H5344 , and pierce [H8804]   H6547 it: so is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 unto all that trust [H8802]   on him.
  22 H559 But if ye say [H8799]   H982 unto me, We trust [H8804]   H3068 in the LORD H430 our God H1116 : is not that he, whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 hath taken away [H8689]   H559 , and hath said [H8799]   H3063 to Judah H3389 and Jerusalem H7812 , Ye shall worship [H8691]   H6440 before H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6148 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges [H8690]   H113 to my lord H4428 the king H804 of Assyria H5414 , and I will deliver [H8799]   H505 thee two thousand H5483 horses H3201 , if thou be able [H8799]   H5414 on thy part to set [H8800]   H7392 riders [H8802]   upon them.
  24 H7725 How then wilt thou turn away [H8686]   H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants H982 , and put thy trust [H8799]   H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 Am I now come up [H8804]   H1107 without H3068 the LORD H4725 against this place H7843 to destroy [H8687]   H3068 it? The LORD H559 said [H8804]   H5927 to me, Go up [H8798]   H776 against this land H7843 , and destroy [H8685]   it.
  26 H559 Then said [H8799]   H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H7644 , and Shebna H3098 , and Joah H7262 , unto Rabshakeh H1696 , Speak [H8761]   H5650 , I pray thee, to thy servants H762 in the Syrian language H8085 ; for we understand [H8802]   H1696 it : and talk [H8762]   H3066 not with us in the Jews' language H241 in the ears H5971 of the people H2346 that are on the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 said [H8799]   H113 unto them, Hath my master H7971 sent [H8804]   H113 me to thy master H1696 , and to thee, to speak [H8763]   H1697 these words H582 ? hath he not sent me to the men H3427 which sit [H8802]   H2346 on the wall H398 , that they may eat [H8800]   H6675 their own dung [H8675]   H2755   H8354 , and drink [H8800]   H4325 their own piss H7272   [H8675]   H7890   with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 stood [H8799]   H7121 and cried [H8799]   H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews' language H1696 , and spake [H8762]   H559 , saying [H8799]   H8085 , Hear [H8798]   H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king H4428 , the king H804 of Assyria:
  29 H559 Thus saith [H8804]   H4428 the king H2396 , Let not Hezekiah H5377 deceive [H8686]   H3201 you: for he shall not be able [H8799]   H5337 to deliver [H8687]   H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H2396 Neither let Hezekiah H982 make you trust [H8686]   H3068 in the LORD H559 , saying [H8800]   H3068 , The LORD H5337 will surely [H8687]   H5337 deliver [H8686]   H5892 us, and this city H5414 shall not be delivered [H8735]   H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 Hearken [H8799]   H2396 not to Hezekiah H559 : for thus saith [H8804]   H4428 the king H804 of Assyria H6213 , Make [H8798]   H1293 an agreement with me by a present H3318 , and come out [H8798]   H398 to me, and then eat [H8798]   H376 ye every man H1612 of his own vine H376 , and every one H8384 of his fig tree H8354 , and drink [H8798]   H376 ye every one H4325 the waters H953 of his cistern:
  32 H935 Until I come [H8800]   H3947 and take you away [H8804]   H776 to a land H776 like your own land H776 , a land H1715 of corn H8492 and wine H776 , a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards H776 , a land H3323 of oil H2132 olive H1706 and of honey H2421 , that ye may live [H8798]   H4191 , and not die [H8799]   H8085 : and hearken [H8799]   H2396 not unto Hezekiah H5496 , when he persuadeth [H8686]   H559 you, saying [H8800]   H3068 , The LORD H5337 will deliver [H8686]   us.
  33 H376 Hath any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 delivered [H8689]   H5337 at all [H8687]   H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath H774 , and of Arpad H430 ? where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim H2012 , Hena H5755 , and Ivah H5337 ? have they delivered [H8689]   H8111 Samaria H3027 out of mine hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the countries H5337 , that have delivered [H8689]   H776 their country H3027 out of mine hand H3068 , that the LORD H5337 should deliver [H8686]   H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of mine hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 held their peace [H8689]   H6030 , and answered [H8804]   H1697 him not a word H4428 : for the king's H4687 commandment H559 was, saying [H8800]   H6030 , Answer [H8799]   him not.
  37 H935 Then came [H8799]   H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H1004 , which was over the household H7644 , and Shebna H5608 the scribe [H8802]   H3098 , and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder [H8688]   H2396 , to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 rent [H8803]   H5046 , and told [H8686]   H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.
Thomson(i) 1 Now in the third year of Osea son of Ela king of Israel, Ezekias son of Achaz king of Juda acted as king. 2 He was twenty five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty nine years in Jerusalem, and his mother's name was Abu, a daughter of Zacharias. 3 He did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places and broke in pieces the pillars and destroyed the bowers and the brasen serpent which Moses made. Because in those days the Israelites were burning incense to it, therefore he called it Neesthan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel, so that there was not after him one like him among the kings of Juda, nor among those who were before him. 6 For he cleaved to the Lord and departed not from following him, and kept all his commandments which he had given in charge to Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him and assisted him in all that he did. And he revolted from the king of Assyria and would not serve him. 8 He smote the Philistines even to Gaza and the border thereof, from the watch tower to the fenced city. 9 Now in the fourth year of Ezekias which was the seventh year of Osea son of Ela king of Israel, Salamanasser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it, 10 and took it at the end of three years. In the sixth year of Ezekias, which was the ninth of Osea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria removed the Samaritans to Assyria, and placed them along the Alae and the Abor, a river of Gozan, and on the mountains of the Medes, 12 because they had not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant; and, with regard to all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, had neither hearkened to them nor done them. 13 And in the fourteenth of king Ezekias, Sennacherim the king of the Assyrians came up against the fortified cities of Juda, and when he had taken some of them, 14 Ezekias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of Assyria at Lachis, saying, I have done wrong. Depart from me. Whatever thou imposest on me I will bear. Thereupon the king of Assyria imposed on Ezekias king of Juda, three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Ezekias gave him all the silver which was found in the house of the Lord and in the treasury of the king's house. 16 At that time Ezekias cut up the doors of the temple, and the braces which he, Ezekias king of Juda, had overlaid with gold, and gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 Nevertheless the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Raphis, and Rapsakes of Lachis, to king Ezekias with a great army against Jerusalem. And when they had marched up and arrived at Jerusalem they halted at the conduit of the upper pool, which is by the high way to the fuller's field, 18 and cried to Ezekias. And there went out to him Eliakim son of Chelkias, the steward, and Somnas the secretary, and Joas son of Saphat, the recorder. 19 And Rapsakes said to them, Say, I pray you, to Ezekias, Thus saith the king, the great king of the Assyrians, Of what avail is that confidence on which thou hast relied? 20 Thou saidst; but they were vain words; I have counsel and strength for war. 21 Now therefore on whom dost thou rely that thou shouldst rebel against me? Perhaps thou leanest on that staff; that broken reed; on Egypt; on which if any one lean, it will enter his hand and pierce it. 22 Such is Pharao king of Egypt to all who trust in him. As to thy telling me, We have relied on the Lord God; Is not this he, whose high places and whose altars Ezekias hath pulled down, saying to Juda and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Though you were now in close connexion with my master the king of Assyria, and I were to give thee two thousand horses, couldst thou, I pray thee, mount for thyself riders on them? 24 How then canst thou turn back the face of a petty governor; one of the lowest servants of my lord, relying on Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 And now are we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against that land and destroy it. 26 Then Eliakim son of Chelkias, and Somnas and Joas, said to Kapsakes, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in Syriac, for we understand it. Therefore speak not to us in the Jewish language. Why shouldst thou speak to the ears of the people on the wall? 27 Thereupon Rapsakes said to them, Did my master send me to thy master or to thee, to deliver this message? Was it not to those men who are set on that wall that they may eat their own ordure and drink their own urine? 28 Then Rapsakes stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians. 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Ezekias deceive you; for he cannot deliver you out of his hand. 30 Neither let Ezekias cause you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hands of the king of the Assyrians. 31 Hearken not to Ezekias. For thus saith the king of the Assyrians, Make peace with me and come out to me. And every one shall drink of his own vine, and every one shall eat of his own fig tree, and drink the water of his own cistern; 32 until. I come and take you to a land like your own; a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards; a land of olive oil and honey, that you may live and not die. Hearken not to Ezekias: for he deceiveth you, saying, The Lord will deliver us. 33 Have the gods of the nations delivered their respective countries out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians? 34 Where is the God of Aimath and Arphad? Where the god of Seppharuaim, Ana and Aba? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who is there among all the gods of these countries who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of it? 36 But they held their peace and answered him not a word, For this was the king's command, Make him no answer. 37 Then came Eliakim son of Chelkias the steward, and Somnas the secretary, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder to Ezekias, with their clothes rent and told him the words of Rapsakes.
Webster(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the images, and cut down the groves, and broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made: for till those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. 6 For he cleaved to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines, even to Gaza, and its borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried away Israel to Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me I will bear. And the king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army against Jerusalem: and they went up, and came to Jerusalem: and when they had come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which thou trustest? 20 Thou sayest, but they are but vain words, I have counsel and strength for the war. Now in whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? 21 Now behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leaneth, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou shalt be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna and Joah, to Rab-shakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rab-shakeh said to them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, that they may feed on their vilest excretions with you? 28 Then Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews language, and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig-tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern: 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-oil and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not to Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.

  1 H7969 Now it came to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel H2396 , that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 [H8804] began to reign.
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 [H8800] was he when he began to reign H4427 [H8804] ; and he reigned H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem H517 . His mother's H8034 name H21 also was Abi H1323 , the daughter H2148 of Zachariah.
  3 H6213 [H8799] And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the sight H3068 of the LORD H1732 , according to all that David H1 his father H6213 [H8804] did.
  4 H5493 [H8689] He removed H1116 the high places H7665 [H8765] , and broke H4676 the images H3772 [H8804] , and cut down H842 the groves H3807 [H8765] , and broke in pieces H5178 the brasen H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 [H8804] had made H3117 : for till those days H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H6999 [H8764] burnt incense H7121 [H8799] to it: and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 [H8804] He trusted H3068 in the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H310 ; so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah H6440 , nor any that were before him.
  6 H1692 [H8799] For he clung H3068 to the LORD H5493 [H8804] , and departed H310 not from following H8104 [H8799] him, but kept H4687 his commandments H3068 , which the LORD H6680 [H8765] commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And the LORD H7919 [H8686] was with him; and he prospered H3318 [H8799] wherever he went forth H4775 [H8799] : and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria H5647 [H8804] , and served him not.
  8 H5221 [H8689] He smote H6430 the Philistines H5804 , even to Gaza H1366 , and its borders H4026 , from the tower H5341 [H8802] of the watchmen H4013 to the fortified H5892 city.
  9 H7243 And it came to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H7637 , which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel H8022 , that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 [H8804] came up H8111 against Samaria H6696 [H8799] , and besieged it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 [H8799] they took H8337 it: even in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah H8672 , that is the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel H8111 , Samaria H3920 [H8738] was taken.
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H1540 [H8686] carried away H3478 Israel H804 to Assyria H5148 [H8686] , and put H2477 them in Halah H2249 and in Habor H5104 by the river H1470 of Gozan H5892 , and in the cities H4074 of the Medes:
  12 H8085 [H8804] Because they obeyed H6963 not the voice H3068 of the LORD H430 their God H5674 [H8799] , but transgressed H1285 his covenant H4872 , and all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of the LORD H6680 [H8765] commanded H8085 [H8804] , and would not hear H6213 [H8804] them, nor do them.
  13 H702 H6240 Now in the fourteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 [H8804] came up H1219 [H8803] against all the fortified H5892 cities H3063 of Judah H8610 [H8799] , and took them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 [H8799] sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish H559 [H8800] , saying H2398 [H8804] , I have offended H7725 [H8798] ; withdraw H5414 [H8799] from me: that which thou puttest H5375 [H8799] on me I will bear H4428 . And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 [H8799] appointed H2396 to Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 [H8799] gave H3701 him all the silver H4672 [H8737] that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of the LORD H214 , and in the treasuries H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 [H8765] cut off H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of the LORD H547 , and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 [H8765] had overlaid H5414 [H8799] , and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 [H8799] sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 army H3389 against Jerusalem H5927 [H8799] . And they went up H935 [H8799] and came H3389 to Jerusalem H5927 [H8799] . And when they had come up H935 [H8799] , they came H5975 [H8799] and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool H4546 , which is in the highway H3526 [H8801] of the fuller's H7704 field.
  18 H7121 [H8799] And when they had called H4428 to the king H3318 [H8799] , there came out H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H1004 , who was over the household H7644 , and Shebna H5608 [H8802] the scribe H3098 , and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 [H8688] the recorder.
  19 H7262 And Rabshakeh H559 [H8799] said H559 [H8798] to them, Speak H2396 ye now to Hezekiah H559 [H8804] , Thus saith H1419 the great H4428 king H4428 , the king H804 of Assyria H986 , What confidence H982 [H8804] is this in which thou trustest?
  20 H559 [H8804] Thou sayest H8193 , (but they are but vain H1697 words H6098 ,) I have counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war H982 [H8804] . Now in whom dost thou trust H4775 [H8804] , that thou rebellest against me?
  21 H982 [H8804] Now, behold, thou trustest H4938 upon the staff H7533 [H8803] of this bruised H7070 reed H4714 , even upon Egypt H376 , on which if a man H5564 [H8735] leaneth H935 [H8804] , it will go H3709 into his hand H5344 [H8804] , and pierce H6547 it: so is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 [H8802] to all that trust on him.
  22 H559 [H8799] But if ye say H982 [H8804] to me, We trust H3068 in the LORD H430 our God H1116 : is not that he, whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 [H8689] hath taken away H559 [H8799] , and hath said H3063 to Judah H3389 and Jerusalem H7812 [H8691] , Ye shall worship H6440 before H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6148 [H8690] Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges H113 to my lord H4428 the king H804 of Assyria H5414 [H8799] , and I will deliver H505 thee two thousand H5483 horses H3201 [H8799] , if thou shalt be able H5414 [H8800] on thy part to set H7392 [H8802] riders upon them.
  24 H7725 [H8686] How then wilt thou turn away H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants H982 [H8799] , and put thy trust H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 [H8804] Have I now come up H1107 without H3068 the LORD H4725 against this place H7843 [H8687] to destroy H3068 it? The LORD H559 [H8804] said H5927 [H8798] to me, Go up H776 against this land H7843 [H8685] , and destroy it.
  26 H559 [H8799] Then said H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H7644 , and Shebna H3098 , and Joah H7262 , to Rabshakeh H1696 [H8761] , Speak H5650 , I pray thee, to thy servants H762 in the Syrian language H8085 [H8802] ; for we understand H1696 [H8762] it: and talk H3066 not with us in the Jews' language H241 in the ears H5971 of the people H2346 that are on the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 [H8799] said H113 to them, Hath my master H7971 [H8804] sent H113 me to thy master H1696 [H8763] , and to thee, to speak H1697 these words H582 ? hath he not sent me to the men H3427 [H8802] who sit H2346 on the wall H398 [H8800] , that they may eat H6675 H2755 [H8675] their own dung H8354 [H8800] , and drink H4325 H7272 H7890 [H8675] their own urine with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 [H8799] stood H7121 [H8799] and cried H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews' language H1696 [H8762] , and spoke H559 [H8799] , saying H8085 [H8798] , Hear H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king H4428 , the king H804 of Assyria:
  29 H559 [H8804] Thus saith H4428 the king H2396 , Let not Hezekiah H5377 [H8686] deceive H3201 [H8799] you: for he shall not be able H5337 [H8687] to deliver H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H2396 Neither let Hezekiah H982 [H8686] make you trust H3068 in the LORD H559 [H8800] , saying H3068 , The LORD H5337 [H8687] will surely H5337 [H8686] deliver H5892 us, and this city H5414 [H8735] shall not be delivered H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 [H8799] Hearken H2396 not to Hezekiah H559 [H8804] : for thus saith H4428 the king H804 of Assyria H6213 [H8798] , Make H1293 an agreement with me by a present H3318 [H8798] , and come out H398 [H8798] to me, and then eat H376 ye every man H1612 of his own vine H376 , and every one H8384 of his fig tree H8354 [H8798] , and drink H376 ye every one H4325 the waters H953 of his cistern:
  32 H935 [H8800] Until I come H3947 [H8804] and take you away H776 to a land H776 like your own land H776 , a land H1715 of grain H8492 and wine H776 , a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards H776 , a land H2132 of olive H3323 oil H1706 and of honey H2421 [H8798] , that ye may live H4191 [H8799] , and not die H8085 [H8799] : and hearken H2396 not to Hezekiah H5496 [H8686] , when he persuadeth H559 [H8800] you, saying H3068 , The LORD H5337 [H8686] will deliver us.
  33 H376 Hath any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 [H8689] delivered H5337 [H8687] at all H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath H774 , and of Arpad H430 ? where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim H2012 , Hena H5755 , and Ivah H5337 [H8689] ? have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the countries H5337 [H8689] , that have delivered H776 their country H3027 out of my hand H3068 , that the LORD H5337 [H8686] should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 [H8689] held their peace H6030 [H8804] , and answered H1697 him not a word H4428 : for the king's H4687 commandment H559 [H8800] was, saying H6030 [H8799] , Answer him not.
  37 H935 [H8799] Then came H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah H1004 , who was over the household H7644 , and Shebna H5608 [H8802] the scribe H3098 , and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 [H8688] the recorder H2396 , to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 [H8803] torn H5046 [H8686] , and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.
Brenton(i) 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel that Ezekias son of Achaz king of Juda began to reign. 2 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abu, daughter of Zacharias. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the brazen serpent which Moses made: because until those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Neesthan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; and after him there was not any like him among the kings of Juda, nor among those that were before him. 6 And he clave to the Lord, he departed not from following him; and he kept his commandments, as many as he commanded Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook: and he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines even to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Ezekias (this is the seventh year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel,) that Salamanassar king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Ezekias, (this is the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, when Samaria was taken.) 11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Alae and in Abor, by the river Gozan, and in the mountains of the Medes; 12 because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed his covenant, even in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and hearkened not to them, nor did them. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Ezekias came up Sennacherim king of the Assyrians against the strong cities of Juda, and took them. 14 And Ezekias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatsoever thou shalt lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Ezekias king of Juda a tribute of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Ezekias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Ezekias cut off the gold from the doors of the temple, and from the pillars which Ezekias king of Juda had overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians. 17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Raphis and Rapsakes from Lachis to king Ezekias with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field. 18 And they cried to Ezekias: and there came to him Heliakim the son of Chelcias the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder. 19 And Rapsakes said to them, Say now to Ezekias, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians, What is this confidence wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou hast said, (but they are mere words,) I have counsel and strength for war. Now then in whom dost thou trust, that thou hast revolted from me? 21 See now, art thou trusting for thyself on this broken staff of reed, even upon Egypt? whosoever shall stay himself upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharao king of Egypt to all that trust on him. 22 And whereas thou hast said to me, We trust on the Lord God: is not this he, whose high places and altars Ezekias has removed, and has said to Juda and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, I pray you, make and agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou shalt be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my lord's servants? whereas thou trustest for thyself on Egypt for chariots and horsemen. 25 And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 And Heliakim the son of Chelkias, and Somnas, and Joas, said to Rapsakes, Speak now to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language: and why dost thou speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall? 27 And Rapsakes said to them, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you. 28 And Rapsakes stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians: 29 thus says the king, Let not Ezekias encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 And let not Ezekias cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians: hearken not to Ezekias: 31 for thus says the king of the Assyrians, Gain my favour, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink of the wine of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig-tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern; 32 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey, and ye shall live and not die: and do not ye hearken to Ezekias, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you. 33 Have the Gods of the nations at all delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians? 34 Where is the god of Haemath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Seppharvaim, Ana, and Aba? for have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who is there among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the men were silent, and answered him not a word: for there was a commandment of the king, saying, Ye shall not answer him. 37 And Heliakim the son of Chelcias, the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder came in to Ezekias, having rent their garments; and they reported to him the words of Rapsakes.

17 Καὶ ἀπέστειλε βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων τὸν Θαρθὰν καὶ τὸν Ῥαφὶς καὶ τὸν Ῥαψάκην ἐκ Λαχὶς πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Ἐζεκίαν ἐν δυνάμει βαρείᾳ ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ· καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ ἧλθον εὶς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἔστησαν ἐν τῷ ὑδραγωγῷ τῆς κολυμβήθρας τῆς ἄνω, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τοῦ ἀγροῦ τοῦ γναφέως. 18 Καὶ ἐβόησαν πρὸς Ἐζεκίαν· καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν Ἑλιακὶμ υἱὸς Χελκίου ὁ οἰκονόμος, καὶ Σωμνὰς ὁ γραμματεὺς, καὶ Ἰωὰς ὁ υἱὸς Σαφὰτ ὁ ἀναμιμνῄσκων.
19 Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ῥαψάκης, εἴπατε δὴ πρὸς Ἐζεκίαν, τάδε λέγει ὁ βασιλεὺς, ὁ μέγας ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων, τί ἡ πεποίθησις αὕτη ἣν πέποιθας; 20 Εἶπας, πλὴν λόγοι χειλέων, βουλὴ καὶ δύναμις εἰς πόλεμον· νῦν οὖν τίνι πεποιθὼς ἠθέτησας ἐν ἐμοί; 21 Νῦν ἰδοὺ πέποιθας σαυτῷ ἐπὶ τὴν ῥάβδον τὴν καλαμίνην τὴν τεθλασμένην ταύτην, ἐπʼ Αἴγυπτον; ὃς ἂν στηριχθῇ ἀνὴρ ἐπʼ αὐτήν, καὶ εἰσελεύσεται εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ τρήσει αὐτὴν· οὕτως Φαραὼ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου πᾶσι τοῖς πεποιθόσιν ἐπʼ αὐτόν. 22 Καὶ ὅτι εἶπας πρὸς μὲ, ἐπὶ Κύριον Θεὸν πεποίθαμεν· οὐχὶ αὐτὸς οὗτος ἀπέστησεν Ἐζεκίας τὰ ὑψηλὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπε τῷ Ἰούδᾳ καὶ τῇ Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ἐνώπιον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τούτου προσκυνήσετε ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ; 23 Καὶ νῦν μίχθητε δὴ τῷ κυρίῳ μου βασιλεῖ Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ δώσω σοι δισχιλίους ἵππους, εἰ δυνήσῃ δοῦναι σεαυτῷ ἐπιβάτας ἐπʼ αὐτούς. 24 Καὶ πῶς ἀποστρέψεις τὸ πρόσωπον τοπάρχου ἑνὸς τῶν δούλων τοῦ κυρίου μου τῶν ἐλαχίστων; καὶ ἤλπισας σαυτῷ ἐπʼ Αἴγυπτον εἰς ἅρματα καὶ ἱππεῖς. 25 Καὶ νῦν μὴ ἄνευ Κυρίου ἀνέβημεν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τοῦ διαφθεῖραι αὐτόν; Κύριος εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ἀνάβηθι ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ταύτην καὶ διάφθειρον αὐτήν.
26 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἑλιακὶμ υἱὸς Χελκίου καὶ Σωμνὰς καὶ Ἰωὰς πρὸς Ῥαψάκην, λάλησον δὴ πρὸς τοὺς παῖδάς σου Συριστὶ, ὅτι ἀκούομεν ἡμεῖς· καὶ οὐ λαλήσεις μεθʼ ἡμῶν Ἰουδαϊστὶ· καὶ ἱνατί λαλεῖς ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶ τοῦ λαοῦ τοῦ ἐπὶ τοῦ τείχους; 27 Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ῥαψάκης, μὴ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριόν σου καὶ πρὸς σὲ ἀπέστειλέ με ὁ κύριός μου λαλῆσαι τοὺς λόγους τούτους; οὐχὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς καθημένους ἐπὶ τοῦ τείχους, τοῦ φαγεῖν τὴν κόπρον αὐτῶν, καὶ πιεῖν τὸ οὖρον αὐτῶν μεθʼ ὑμῶν ἅμα;

36 καὶ ἐκώφευσαν καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῷ λόγον, ὅτι ἐντολὴ τοῦ βασιλέως, λέγων, οὐκ ἀποκριθήσεσθε αὐτῷ. 37 Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἑλιακὶμ υἱὸς Χελκίου ὁ οἰκονόμος, καὶ Σωμνὰς ὁ γραμματεὺς, καὶ Ἰωὰς υἱὸς Σαφὰτ ὁ ἀναμιμνήσκων πρὸς Ἐζεκίαν, διεῤῥηχότες τὰ ἱμάτια, καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν αὐτῷ τοὺς λόγους Ῥαψάκου.
Leeser(i) 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea’ the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Hezekiah, the son of Achaz the king of Judah, became king. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that David his father had done. 4 He it was that removed the high-places, and broke the statues, and cut down the groves, and stamped in pieces the copper serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days were the children of Israel burning incense to it; and he called it Nechushtan. 5 In the Lord the God of Israel did he trust; and after him there was not his like among all the kings of Judah, nor among those that were before him. 6 And he adhered to the Lord, and turned not away from following him; but he kept his commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He it was that smote the Philistines, as far as Gazzah, and its territory, from the tower of the watchmen up to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea’ the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Shalmanesser the king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And they captured it at the end of three years,—in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea’ the king of Israel, was Samaria captured. 11 And the king of Assyria led away Israel as exiles unto Assyria, and transported them to Chalach and to Chabor, by the river of Gozan, and to the cities of Media; 12 Because they had not obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, but had transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; and had not obeyed, nor done accordingly. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib the king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seized on them. 14 And Hezekiah the king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: what thou wilt impose on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave up all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king’s house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the door-sills which Hezekiah the king of Judah had overlaid, and gave the same to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rub-sariss and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a strong army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem; and when they were come up, they came and halted by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the washer’s field. 18 And they called for the king, when there came out to them Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherewith thou hast trusted? 20 Thou saidst, but it was only a word uttered with the lips, I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom didst thou trust, that thou rebelledst against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trustedst thee upon yon cracked reed-staff, upon Egypt, which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye should say unto me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high-places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves in Jerusalem? 23 And now, I pray thee, enter into a contest with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn back the face of a single chieftain among the least of my master’s servants, while thou hast put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen! 25 Now am I come up without the Lord‘s will against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, and Shebnah, and Yoach, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jewish language before the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master then sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own excrement, and drink their own urine with you? 28 Then stood Rabshakeh up and called out with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus hath said the king. Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand; 30 Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria: 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye every man of his own vine, and every man of his fig-tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his cistern; 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil-olive trees, and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah; for he will mislead you, saying, The Lord will deliver us. 33 Have the gods of the nations delivered in anywise each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Chamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvayim, Hena’, and ‘Ivvah? have they then delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people remained silent, and answered him not a word; for it was the king’s command, saying, Ye shall not answer him. 37 Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyah, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told unto him the words of Rabshakeh.
YLT(i) 1 And it cometh to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, reigned hath Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah; 2 a son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother is Abi daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did, 4 he hath turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calleth it `a piece of brass.' 5 In Jehovah, God of Israel, he hath trusted, and after him there hath not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among any who were before him; 6 and he cleaveth to Jehovah, he hath not turned aside from after Him, and keepeth His commands that Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah hath been with him, in every place where he goeth out he acteth wisely, and he rebelleth against the king of Asshur, and hath not served him; 8 he hath smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced city.
9 And it cometh to pass, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah—it is the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel—come up hath Shalmaneser king of Asshur against Samaria, and layeth siege to it, 10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah—it is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel—hath Samaria been captureth, 11 and the king of Asshur removeth Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor by the river Gozan, and in cities of the Medes, 12 because that they have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah their God, and transgress His covenant—all that He commanded Moses, servant of Jehovah—yea, they have not hearkened nor done it . 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah hath Sennacherib king of Asshur come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizeth them, 14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sendeth unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, `I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which thou puttest on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur layeth on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold, 15 and Hezekiah giveth all the silver that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king; 16 at that time hath Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and giveth them to the king of Asshur.
17 And the king of Asshur sendeth Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that is in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And they call unto the king, and go out unto them doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who is over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer. 19 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, `Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What is this confidence in which thou hast confided? 20 Thou hast said: Only a word of the lips! counsel and might are for battle; now, on whom hast thou trusted that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 `Now, lo, thou hast trusted for thee on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it! —so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him. 22 `And when ye say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do ye bow yourselves in Jerusalem? 23 `And, now, give a pledge for thee, I pray thee, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to give for thee riders on them. 24 And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that thou dost trust for thee on Egypt for chariot, and for horsemen? 25 Now, without Jehovah have I come up against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and thou hast destroyed it.' 26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah saith—and Shebna, and Joah—to the chief of the butlers, `Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants in Aramaean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us in Jewish, in the ears of the people who are on the wall.' 27 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, `For thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?' 28 And the chief of the butlers standeth and calleth with a great voice in Jewish, and speaketh and saith, `Hear ye a word of the great king, the king of Asshur: 29 thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand; 30 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur. 31 `Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well, 32 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive, and honey, and live, and die not; and do not hearken unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, Jehovah doth deliver us. 33 `Have the gods of the nations delivered at all each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah doth deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?' 36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, `Do not answer him.' 37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who is over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
JuliaSmith(i) 1 And it will be in the third year to Hoshea son of Elah, king of Is rael, reigned Hezekiah son of Ahaz, king of Judah. 2 The son of twenty and five years, was he in his reigning; and twenty and, nine years reigned he in Jerusalem 2Kings 18:and his mothers name Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he will do the straight in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all which, David his father did. 4 He removed the heights, and he brake in pieces the statues, and he cut off the image, and he beat down the serpent of brass which Moses made: for till those days the sons of Israel were burning incense to it and they called it brass. 5 And he trusted in Jehovah the God of Israel; and after him was not like him among all the kings of Judah, and who were before him. 6 And he will cleave upon Jehovah he turned not away from after him, and he will watch his commands which Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him: in all which he will go forth he will prosper; and he will rebel against the king of Assur, and not serve him 8 He struck the rovers even to Azzah, and her bounds from the tower of those watching to the fortified city. 9 And it will be in the fourth year to king Hezekiah, this the seventh year to Hoshea son of Elah, king of Isreel, Shalmaneser, king of Assur, came up against Shomeron and pressed, upon it. 10 And he will take it from the end of three years: in the sixth year to Hezekiah, this the ninth year to Hoshea, king of Israel, Shomeron was taken. 11 And the king of Assur will carry Israel into exile to Assur, and put them in Halah and Habor, the river of Gihon, and the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they heard not to the voice of Jehovah their God, and they will pass by his covenant, all which Moses commanded, the servant of Jehovah, and they heard not and did not 13 And in the fourteenth year to Hezekiah, Senherib, king of Assur, came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and he will seize them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah will send to the king of Assur to Lachish, saying, I sinned; turn back from me: what thou givest upon me I will bear. And the king of Assur will put upon Hezekiah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah will give all the silver found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 In that time Hezekiah broke off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the supporters which Hezekiah king of Judah overlaid, and he will give them to the king of Assur. 17 And the king of Assur will send Tartan, Rab-Saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah, with weighty strength to Jeruslaem; and they will go up and come to Jerusalem: and they will go up and come and stand by the aqueduct of the highest pool in the highway of the field of the fuller. 18 And they will call for the king, and there will go forth to them Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph reminding. 19 And Rabshakeh will say to them, Say now to Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Assur, What this confidence in which thou trustedst? 20 Thou saidst (but a word of the lips) Counsel and strength for war Now upon whom didst thou trust that thou rebelledst against me? 21 Now behold, thou trustedst to thyself, upon the stay of this broken reed, upon Egypt, which a man shall lean upon it and it will go into his hand and bore it; thus Pharaoh king of Egypt to all trusting upon him. 22 And if ye shall say to me, We trusted to Jehovah our God: is it not he of whom Hezekiah turned away his heights and his altars, and he will say to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now become surety to my lord the king of Assur, and I will give to thee two thousand horses if thou shalt be able to give to thyself riders upon them. 24 And how wilt thou turn back the face of one prefect of my lord's servants of the least, and wilt thou trust to thyself upon Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Now came I up without Jehovah upon this place to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it 26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, will say, and Shebna, and Joah, to Rabshakeh, Speak now to thy servants in Syriac; for we hear: and thou shalt not speak with us in Judaic in the ears of the people who are upon the wall 27 And Rabshakeh will say to them, To thy lord and to thee did my lord send me to speak these words? is it not to the men sitting upon the wall to eat their dung and to drink their piss with you? 28 And Rabshakeh will stand and call with a great voice in Judaic, and speak and say, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assur: 29 Thus said the king, Hezekiah shall not be lifted up to you: for he shall not be able to deliver you from my hand: 30 And Hezekiah shall cause you to trust to Jehovah, saying, Delivering, Jehovah will deliver us, and this same city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assur. 31 Ye shall not hear to Hezekiah: for thus said the king of Assur, Make me a gift, and come forth to me, and eat ye a man his vine and a man his fig tree, and drink ye a man water of his well, 32 Till my coming and I took you to a land as your land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-oil and honey; and live ye, and ye shall not die: and ye shall not hear to Hezekiah, for he will seduce you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. 33 Delivering, did the gods of the nations deliver each his hand out of the hand of the king of Assur? 34 Where the gods of Hamath and Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? for did they deliver Shomemn out of my hand? 35 Who of all the gods of the lands who delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah shall deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 And the people were silent and answered him not a word: for it was the command of the king, saying, Ye shall not answer. 37 And there came Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph reminding, to Hezekiah, their garments rent; and they will announce to him the words of Rabshakeh.
Darby(i) 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother`s name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the columns, and cut down the Asherahs, and broke in pieces the serpent of brass that Moses had made; for to those days the children of Israel burned incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in Jehovah the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] that were before him. 6 And he clave to Jehovah, and did not turn aside from following him, but kept his commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him; he prospered whithersoever he went forth. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines unto Gazah and its borders, from the watchmen`s tower to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, [that] Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it; in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is, the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried away Israel to Assyria, and settled them in Halah and by the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes; 12 because they hearkened not to the voice of Jehovah their God, but transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded; and they would not hear nor do it. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: I will bear what thou layest upon me. And the king of Assyria laid upon Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave all the silver that was found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king`s house. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the posts that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish, with a strong force, against king Hezekiah, to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the fuller`s field. 18 And they called to the king. Then came forth to them Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler. 19 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou sayest -- but it is a word of the lips -- There is counsel and strength for war. Now on whom dost thou rely, that thou hast revolted against me? 21 Now behold, thou reliest upon the staff of that broken reed, upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it goes into his hand and pierces it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that rely upon him. 22 And if ye say to me, We rely upon Jehovah our God: is it not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, engage, I pray thee, with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou canst set the riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master`s servants? And thou reliest upon Egypt for chariots and for horsemen! 25 Am I now come up without Jehovah against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 26 And Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, and Shebnah and Joah said to Rab-shakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in Syriac, for we understand it, and talk not with us in the Jewish [language] in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Is it to thy master and to thee that my master sent me to speak these words? Is it not to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you? 28 And Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish [language], and spoke and said, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria! 29 Thus says the king: Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of the [king`s] hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you rely upon Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will certainly deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria: Make peace with me, and come out to me; and eat every one of his vine and every one of his fig-tree, and drink every one the waters of his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-trees and of honey, that ye may live and not die; and hearken not to Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. 33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Which are they among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people were silent and answered him not a word; for the king`s command was, saying, Answer him not. 37 And Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler, came to Hezekiah with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
ERV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right hi the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and brake the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: And he brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among them] that were before him. 6 For he clave to the LORD, he departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines unto Gaza and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away unto Assyria, and put them in Halah, and in Habor, [on] the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave [him] all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king’s house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple of the LORD, and [from] the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army unto Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller’s field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou sayest, but they are but vain words, [There is] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then canst thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jews’ language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? [hath he not sent me] to the men which sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own water with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and spake, saying, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern; 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king’s commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah, with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
ASV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and brake the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: and he brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in Jehovah, the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among them] that were before him. 6 For he clave to Jehovah; he departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines unto Gaza and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away unto Assyria, and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they obeyed not the voice of Jehovah their God, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it.
13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave [him] all the silver that was found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and [from] the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army unto Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.
19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Thou sayest (but they are but vain words), [There is] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in Jehovah our God; is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then canst thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without Jehovah against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men that sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own water with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake, saying, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig-tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-trees and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word; for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

  1 H7969 Now it came to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H2396 that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 began to reign.
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 was he when he began to reign; H4427 and he reigned H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem: H517 and his mother's H8034 name H21 was Abi H1323 the daughter H2148 of Zechariah.
  3 H6213 And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the eyes H3068 of Jehovah, H1732 according to all that David H1 his father H6213 had done.
  4 H5493 He removed H1116 the high places, H7665 and brake H4676 the pillars, H3772 and cut down H842 the Asherah: H3807 and he brake in pieces H5178 the brazen H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 had made; H3117 for unto those days H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H6999 did burn incense H7121 to it; and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 He trusted H3068 in Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel; H310 so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah, H6440 nor among them that were before him.
  6 H1692 For he clave H3068 to Jehovah; H5493 he departed H310 not from following H8104 him, but kept H4687 his commandments, H3068 which Jehovah H6680 commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And Jehovah H3318 was with him; whithersoever he went forth H7919 he prospered: H4775 and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria, H5647 and served him not.
  8 H5221 He smote H6430 the Philistines H5804 unto Gaza H1366 and the borders H4026 thereof, from the tower H5341 of the watchmen H4013 to the fortified H5892 city.
  9 H7243 And it came to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H7637 which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8022 that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came up H8111 against Samaria, H6696 and besieged it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 they took H8337 it: in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah, H8672 which was the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8111 Samaria H3920 was taken.
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H3478 carried Israel H1540 away H804 unto Assyria, H5148 and put H2477 them in Halah, H2249 and on the Habor, H5104 the river H1470 of Gozan, H5892 and in the cities H4074 of the Medes,
  12 H8085 because they obeyed H6963 not the voice H3068 of Jehovah H430 their God, H5674 but transgressed H1285 his covenant, H4872 even all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of Jehovah H6680 commanded, H8085 and would not hear H6213 it, nor do it.
  13 H702 Now in the fourteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 did Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 come up H1219 against all the fortified H5892 cities H3063 of Judah, H8610 and took them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish, H559 saying, H2398 I have offended; H7725 return H5414 from me: that which thou puttest H5375 on me will I bear. H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 appointed H2396 unto Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 gave H3701 him all the silver H4672 that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of Jehovah, H214 and in the treasures H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 cut off H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of Jehovah, H547 and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 had overlaid, H5414 and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rab-saris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 army H3389 unto Jerusalem. H5927 And they went up H935 and came H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 And when they were come up, H935 they came H5975 and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool, H4546 which is in the highway H3526 of the fuller's H7704 field.
  18 H7121 And when they had called H4428 to the king, H3318 there came out H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H7644 and Shebnah H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder.
  19 H7262 And Rabshakeh H559 said H559 unto them, Say H2396 ye now to Hezekiah, H559 Thus saith H1419 the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H986 What confidence H982 is this wherein thou trustest?
  20 H559 Thou sayest H8193 (but they are but vain H1697 words), H6098 There is counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war. H982 Now on whom dost thou trust, H4775 that thou hast rebelled against me?
  21 H982 Now, behold, thou trustest H4938 upon the staff H7533 of this bruised H7070 reed, H4714 even upon Egypt; H376 whereon if a man H5564 lean, H935 it will go H3709 into his hand, H5344 and pierce H6547 it: so is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 unto all that trust on him.
  22 H559 But if ye say H982 unto me, We trust H3068 in Jehovah H430 our God; H1116 is not that he, whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 hath taken away, H559 and hath said H3063 to Judah H3389 and to Jerusalem, H7812 Ye shall worship H6440 before H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6148 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges H113 to my master H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H5414 and I will give H505 thee two thousand H5483 horses, H3201 if thou be able H5414 on thy part to set H7392 riders upon them.
  24 H7725 How then canst thou turn away H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants, H982 and put thy trust H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 Am I now come up H1107 without H3068 Jehovah H4725 against this place H7843 to destroy H3068 it? Jehovah H559 said H5927 unto me, Go up H776 against this land, H7843 and destroy it.
  26 H559 Then said H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H7644 and Shebnah, H3098 and Joah, H7262 unto Rabshakeh, H1696 Speak, H5650 I pray thee, to thy servants H762 in the Syrian language; H8085 for we understand H1696 it: and speak H3066 not with us in the Jews' language, H241 in the ears H5971 of the people H2346 that are on the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 said H113 unto them, Hath my master H7971 sent H113 me to thy master, H1696 and to thee, to speak H1697 these words? H582 hath he not sent me to the men H3427 that sit H2346 on the wall, H398 to eat H6675 their own dung, H8354 and to drink H7272 their own water with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 stood, H7121 and cried H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews' language, H1696 and spake, H559 saying, H8085 Hear H1697 ye the word H1419 of the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria.
  29 H559 Thus saith H4428 the king, H2396 Let not Hezekiah H5377 deceive H3201 you; for he will not be able H5337 to deliver H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H2396 neither let Hezekiah H982 make you trust H3068 in Jehovah, H559 saying, H3068 Jehovah H5337 will surely H5337 deliver H5892 us, and this city H5414 shall not be given H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 Hearken H2396 not to Hezekiah: H559 for thus saith H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H6213 Make H1293 your peace H3318 with me, and come out H398 to me; and eat H376 ye every one H1612 of his vine, H376 and every one H8384 of his fig-tree, H8354 and drink H376 ye every one H4325 the waters H953 of his own cistern;
  32 H935 Until I come H3947 and take you away H776 to a land H776 like your own land, H776 a land H1715 of grain H8492 and new wine, H776 a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards, H776 a land H2132 of olive - H3323 trees H1706 and of honey, H2421 that ye may live, H4191 and not die: H8085 and hearken H2396 not unto Hezekiah, H5496 when he persuadeth H559 you, saying, H3068 Jehovah H5337 will deliver us.
  33 H376 Hath any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 ever H5337 delivered H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath, H774 and of Arpad? H430 where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim, H2012 of Hena, H5755 and Ivvah? H5337 have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the countries, H5337 that have delivered H776 their country H3027 out of my hand, H3068 that Jehovah H5337 should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 held their peace, H6030 and answered H1697 him not a word; H4428 for the king's H4687 commandment H559 was, saying, H6030 Answer him not.
  37 H935 Then came H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder, H2396 to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 rent, H5046 and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.
JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah; and he broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did offer to it; and it was called Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among them that were before him. 6 For he cleaved to the LORD, he departed not from following Him, but kept His commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him: whithersoever he went forth he prospered; and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines unto Gaza and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it; even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away unto Assyria, and put them in Halah, and in Habor, on the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes; 12 because they hearkened not to the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed His covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying: 'I have offended; return from me; that which thou puttest on me will I bear.' And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the door-posts which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rab- shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army unto Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fullers' field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rab-shakeh said unto them: 'Say ye now to Hezekiah: Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 20 Sayest thou that a mere word of the lips is counsel and strength for the war? Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it; so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if ye say unto me: We trust in the LORD our God; is not that He, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and to Jerusalem: Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, make a wager with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then canst thou turn away the face of one captain, even of the least of my masters servants? and yet thou puttest thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen! 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said unto me: Go up against this land, destroy it.' 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh: 'Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Aramean language; for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.' 27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them: 'Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own water with you?' 28 Then Rab-shakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying: 'Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus saith the king: Let not Hezekiah beguile you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand; 30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying: The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus saith the king of Assyria: Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig-tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-trees and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying: The LORD will deliver us. 33 Hath any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?' 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word; for the king's commandment was, saying: 'Answer him not.' 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
Rotherham(i) 1 And it came to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty–five years old, was he when he began to reign, and, twenty–nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem,––and, his mother’s name, was Abi, daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh,––according to all that, David his father, did. 4 He, removed the high places, and brake in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Sacred Stem,––and beat in pieces the serpent of bronze that, Moses, had made, because, until those days, had the sons of Israel been burning incense thereunto, so he called it Nehushtan. 5 In Yahweh, God of Israel, did he trust,––so that, after him, was none like him, among all the kings of Judah, nor that were before him; 6 and he did cleave unto Yahweh, he turned not away from following him,––but kept his commandments, which, Yahweh, commanded, Moses. 7 So Yahweh was with him, whithersoever he went forth, he prospered,––and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He, smote the Philistines, as far as Gazah, and her boundaries,––from the watchmen’s tower even to the fortified city.
9 And it came to pass, in the fourth year of King Hezekiah––the same, was the seventh year of Hosea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and laid siege against it; 10 and he captured it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah,––the same, is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, was Samaria captured. 11 So the king of Assyria drave away Israel to Assyria,––and settled them in Halah, and in Habor, by the river of Gozan, and the mountains of Media: 12 because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh their God, but transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded,––they neither hearkened nor performed. 13 And, in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, came up Sennacherib king of Assyria, against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 Then sent Hezekiah king of Judah unto the king of Assyria, to Lachish, saying––I have sinned, Return from me, What thou shalt lay upon me, I will bear. So the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah, three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah delivered up all the silver that was found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasuries of the house of the king. 16 At that time, Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Yahweh, and the columns, which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid,––and gave them unto the king of Assyria.
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab–saris and Rab–shakeh, from Lachish unto King Hezekiah, with a heavy force to Jerusalem,––so they came up and drew near to Jerusalem, and took their stand by the upper channel of the pool, which is in the highway of the fuller’s field. 18 Then called they for the king, and there went out unto them Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who was over the household,––and Shebnah, the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder. 19 And Rab–shakeh said unto them––Pray you, say unto Hezekiah,––Thus, saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What trust is this wherewith thou dost trust? 20 Thou hast said––they are only words of the lips!––Counsel and might [have I] for the war. Now, in whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 Now, lo! thou dost trust thyself on the support of this bruised cane, on Egypt, whereon, if a man lean, it will enter his hand and lay it open,––so, is Pharaoh king of Egypt, to all who trust upon him. 22 But, if ye should say unto me, In Yahweh our God, do we trust, Then is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, and said unto Judah, and unto Jerusalem––Before this altar, shall ye bow down, in Jerusalem? 23 Now, therefore, pledge thyself, I pray thee, with my lord, the king of Assyria,––that I supply thee with two thousand horses, if thou, on thy part, be able to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn back the face of one pasha of the least of my lord’s servants? Or hast thou, on thy part, trusted to Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Now, is it, without Yahweh, that I have come up against this place, to destroy it? Yahweh himself, said unto me, Go thou up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rab–shakeh: Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants in the, Syrian, language, for, we, can, understand, it,––and do not speak with us in, the Jews’, language, in the ears of the people who are upon the wall. 27 But Rab–shakeh said unto them––Is it, concerning thy lord, and concerning thee, that my lord hath sent me to speak these things? Is it not concerning the men who are tarrying upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own water with you? 28 So then Rab–shakeh took his stand, and cried out with a loud voice, in, the Jews’, language,––and spake, and said, Hear ye the message of the great king, the king of Assyria:–– 29 Thus, saith the king: Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he shall not he able to deliver you out of his hand; 30 Neither let Hezekiah cause you to trust in Yahweh, saying, Yahweh, will, certainly deliver, us,––this city, therefore, shall not be given over into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not hearken unto Hezekiah,––for, thus, saith the king of Assyria, Deal with me thankfully, and come out unto me, then shall ye eat––every one of his own vine, and every one of his own fig–tree, and drink every one the waters of his own cistern; 32 Until I come and take you, into a land like your own land––A land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and honey, so shall ye live, and not die,––But do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for he would persuade you, saying, Yahweh, will deliver us! 33 Have, the gods of the nations, at all delivered, any one of them, his country, out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena and Ivvah? Yea, did they deliver Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they, among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country, out of my hand,––that, Yahweh, should deliver, Jerusalem, out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word,––for, the command of the king, it was, saying––Ye must not answer him. 37 Then came in Eliakim son of Hilkiah who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, unto Hezekiah, with rent clothes,––and they told him the words of Rab–shakeh.
CLV(i) 1 And it comes to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, reigned has Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah;" 2 a son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and twenty and nine years he has reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he does that which [is] right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that David his father did, 4 he has turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calls it `a piece of brass.. 5 In Yahweh, Elohim of Israel, he has trusted, and after him there has not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who were before him;" 6 and he cleaves to Yahweh, he has not turned aside from after Him, and keeps His commands that Yahweh commanded Moses. 7 And Yahweh has been with him, in every place where he goes out he acts wisely, and he rebels against the king of Asshur, and has not served him;" 8 he has smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced city. 9 And it comes to pass, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah--it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel--come up has Shalmaneser king of Asshur against Samaria, and lays siege to it, 10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah--it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel--has Samaria been captures, 11 and the king of Asshur removes Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] cities of the Medes, 12 because that they have not hearkened to the voice of Yahweh their Elohim, and transgress His covenant--all that He commanded Moses, servant of Yahweh--yea, they have not hearkened nor done [it]. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah has Sennacherib king of Asshur come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizes them, 14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sends unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, `I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which you put on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur lays on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold, 15 and Hezekiah gives all the silver that is found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasures of the house of the king;" 16 at that time has Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Yahweh, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gives them to the king of Asshur. 17 And the king of Asshur sends Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [is] in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And they call unto the king, and go out unto them does Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer. 19 And the chief of the butlers said unto them, `Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What [is] this confidence in which you have confided? 20 You have said:Only a word of the lips! counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom have you trusted that you have rebelled against me? 21 `Now, lo, you have trusted for you on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leans on, and it has gone into his hand, and pierced it! --so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him. 22 `And when you say unto me, Unto Yahweh our Elohim we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has turned aside, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do you bow yourselves in Jerusalem? 23 `And, now, give a pledge for you, I pray you, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to you two thousand horses, if you are able to give for you riders on them. 24 And how do you turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that you do trust for you on Egypt for chariot, and for horsemen? 25 Now, without Yahweh have I come up against this place to destroy it? Yahweh said unto me, Go up against this land, and you have destroyed it.. 26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah said--and Shebna, and Joah--to the chief of the butlers, `Speak, we pray you, unto your servants [in] Aramean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.. 27 And the chief of the butlers said unto them, `For your lord, and unto you, has my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?. 28 And the chief of the butlers stands and calls with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaks and said, `Hear you a word of the great king, the king of Asshur. 29 thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand;" 30 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Yahweh, saying, Yahweh does certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur. 31 `Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat you each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink you each the waters of his own well, 32 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive, and honey, and live, and die not; and do not hearken unto Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, Yahweh does deliver us. 33 `Have the elohims of the nations delivered at all each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur? 34 Where [are] the elohims of Hamath and Arpad? where the elohims of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who [are they] among all the elohims of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that Yahweh does deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?. 36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, `Do not answer him.. 37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, comes in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
BBE(i) 1 Now in the third year of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel, Hezekiah, the son of Ahaz, became king of Judah. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord as David his father had done. 4 He had the high places taken away, and the stone pillars broken to bits, and the Asherah cut down; and the brass snake which Moses had made was crushed to powder at his order, because in those days the children of Israel had offerings burned before it, and he gave it the name Nehushtan. 5 He had faith in the Lord, the God of Israel; so that there was no one like him among all the kings of Judah who were before him. 6 For his heart was fixed on the Lord, not turning from his ways, and he did his orders which the Lord gave to Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; he did well in all his undertakings: and he took up arms against the king of Assyria and was his servant no longer. 8 He overcame the Philistines as far as Gaza and its limits, from the tower of the watchman to the walled town. 9 Now in the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, came up against Samaria, shutting it in with his armies. 10 And at the end of three years they took it; in the sixth year of Hezekiah's rule, which was the ninth year of Hoshea, king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria took Israel away as prisoners into Assyria, placing them in Halah and in Habor on the river Gozan, and in the towns of the Medes; 12 Because they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord their God, but went against his agreement, even against everything ordered by Moses, the servant of the Lord, and they did not give ear to it or do it. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them. 14 And Hezekiah, king of Judah, sent to Lachish, to the king of Assyria, saying, I have done wrong; give up attacking me, and whatever you put on me I will undergo. And the payment he was to make was fixed by the king of Assyria at three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 So Hezekiah gave him all the silver in the house of the Lord, and in the king's store-house. 16 And at that time Hezekiah had the gold from the doors of the Lord's house, and from the door-pillars plated by him, cut off and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 Then the king of Assyria sent the Tartan and the Rab-saris and the Rab-shakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem, to King Hezekiah, with a strong force. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and took up their position by the stream of the higher pool, by the highway of the washerman's field. 18 And they sent for the king, and Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came out to them. 19 And the Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, These are the words of the great king, the king of Assyria: In what are you placing your hope? 20 You say you have a design, and strength for war, but these are only words. Now to whom are you looking for support, that you have gone against my authority? 21 See, now, you are basing your hope on that broken rod of Egypt, which will go through a man's hand if he makes use of it for a support; for so is Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to all who put their faith in him. 22 And if you say to me, Our hope is in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away, saying to Judah and Jerusalem that worship may only be given before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, take a chance with my master, the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put horsemen on them. 24 How then may you put to shame the least of my master's servants? and you have put your hope in Egypt for war-carriages and horsemen: 25 And have I now come up to send destruction on this place without the Lord's authority? It was the Lord himself who said to me, Go up against this land and make it waste. 26 Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna and Joah said to the Rab-shakeh, Will you kindly make use of the Aramaean language in talking to your servants, for we are used to it, and do not make use of the Jews' language in the hearing of the people on the wall. 27 But the Rab-shakeh said to them, Is it to your master or to you that my master has sent me to say these words? has he not sent me to the men seated on the wall? for they are the people who will be short of food with you when the town is shut in. 28 Then the Rab-shakeh got up and said with a loud voice in the Jews' language, Give ear to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria; 29 This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him. 30 And do not let Hezekiah make you put your faith in the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly keep us safe, and this town will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not give ear to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me; and everyone will be free to take the fruit of his vine and of his fig-tree, and the water of his spring; 32 Till I come and take you away to a land like yours, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vine-gardens, a land of oil-giving olives and of honey, so that life and not death may be your fate. Give no attention to Hezekiah when he says to you, The Lord will keep us safe. 33 Has any one of the gods of the nations kept his land from falling into the hands of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena and Ivvah? have they kept Samaria out of my hands? 35 Who among all the gods of these countries have kept their country from falling into my hands, to give cause for the thought that the Lord will keep Jerusalem from falling into my hands? 36 But the people kept quiet and gave him no answer: for the king's order was, Give him no answer. 37 Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah, with their clothing parted as a sign of grief, and gave him an account of what the Rab-shakeh had said.
MKJV(i) 1 And it happened in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did the right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah. And he broke in pieces the bronze serpent which Moses had made; for until those days the sons of Israel burned incense to it. And he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in Jehovah, the God of Israel, and after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him. 6 For he clung to Jehovah. He did not depart from following Him, but kept His commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him. He was blessed wherever he went. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and did not serve him. 8 He struck the Philistines to Gaza and its borders, from the Watch Tower to the fortified city. 9 And it happened in the fourth year of King Hezekiah, the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, it was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried away Israel to Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of Jehovah their God, but transgressed His covenant, and all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded, and would not listen to them, nor do them. 13 And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; turn back from me. Whatever you put on me I will bear. And the king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver which was found in the house of Jehovah and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid. And he gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the cupbearers from Lachish, to King Hezekiah with a great army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they had come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the Fuller's Field. 18 And they called to the king. And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, went out to them. 19 And the chief of the cupbearers said to them, Speak now to Hezekiah, So says the great king, the king of Assyria, What hope is this in which you trust? 20 Do you say that a mere word of the lips is wisdom and strength for the war? Now on whom do you trust that you rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust on the staff of this bruised reed, on Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him. 22 But if you say to me, We trust in Jehovah our God, is He not the one whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, please give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver two thousand horses to you if you are able to set riders on them. 24 And how will you turn away the face of one commander of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up against this place to destroy it without Jehovah? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah said to the chief of the cupbearers, Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand. And do not talk with us in Jewish, in the ears of the people who are on the wall. 27 And the chief of the cupbearers said to them, Has my master sent me to your master and to you, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you? 28 And the chief of the cupbearers stood and cried with a loud voice in Jewish, and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 so says the king, Do not let Hezekiah deceive you. For he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 And do not let Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hands of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah. For so says the king of Assyria, Make with me a blessing, and come out to me, and you each shall eat of his vine, and each of his fig tree, and you each shall drink of the waters of his own cistern, 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil and of honey, and live, and not die. And do not listen to Hezekiah when he deceives you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. 33 Has any of the gods of the nations at all delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of the lands have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people kept silent and did not answer him a word. For the king's command was, saying, Do not answer him. 37 And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn. And they told him the words of the chief of the cupbearers.
LITV(i) 1 And it happened in the third year of Hoshea the son of Elah the king of Israel, Hezekiah the son of Ahaz the king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was a son of twenty five years when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty nine years; and the name of his mother was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did the right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his father David did; 4 he took away the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherah, and beat to bits the bronze serpent that Moses made (for in those days it was that the sons of Israel burned sacrifices to it and called it Nehushtan). 5 He trusted in Jehovah the God of Israel, and after him there was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him; 6 and he clung to Jehovah; he did not turn aside from following Him, and kept His commands that Jehovah commanded Moses. 7 And Jehovah was with him. He acted prudently every place he went. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria and would not serve him. 8 He struck the Philistines to Gaza and its borders, from the Watch Tower to the fortified city. 9 And it happened, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah (it was the seventh year of Hoshea the son of Elah the king of Israel) Shalmaneser the king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And they captured it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah (it was the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Israel) Samaria was conquered; 11 and the king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor by the river Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not listen to the voice of Jehovah their God, and transgressed His covenant, all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded; yea, they did not listen nor obey. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib the king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and captured them. 14 And Hezekiah the king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria, to Lachish, saying, I have offended, turn back from me; that which you put on me I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid on Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave all the silver that was found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah the king of Judah had overlaid, and gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the cupbearers from Lachish, to king Hezekiah with a heavy force, to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they went up and came in and stood by the conduit of the upper pool that was in the highway of the Fuller's Field. 18 And they called to the king, and Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder went out to them. 19 And the chief of the cupbearers said to them, Now say to Hezekiah, So says the great king, the king of Assyria, What is this hope in which you have trusted? 20 Do you say that a mere word of the lips is counsel and strength for battle; now, on whom have you trusted that you have rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, you have trusted for yourself on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt, which if a man lean on it, it will go into his hand and pierce it! So is Pharaoh the king of Egypt to all those who trust in him. 22 And when you say to me, We have trusted to Jehovah our God, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has removed, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar you shall bow yourselves in Jerusalem? 23 And, now, I ask you, exchange pledges for yourself to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will give to you two thousand horses if you are able to give for yourself riders on them. 24 And how will you turn back the face of one prefect of the least of the servants of my lord, that you trust for yourself upon Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Now, have I come up against this place to destroy it without Jehovah? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land, and you shall destroy it. 26 And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah said to the chief of the cupbearers, Please speak Aramaic to your servants, for we understand; and do not speak with us in Jewish, in the ears of the people on the wall. 27 And the chief of the cupbearers said to them, Has my master sent me to speak these words to your master, and to you, and not to the men that sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink the water of their own feet with you? 28 And the chief of the cupbearers stood and called with a great voice in Jewish, and spoke and said, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria; 29 So says the king, Do not let Hezekiah delude you, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand; 30 and do not let Hezekiah make you trust to Jehovah, saying, Jehovah shall surely deliver us; and, This city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for so says the king of Assyria, Make with me a blessing and come out to me; and you each shall eat of his vine, and each of his fig tree, and you each shall drink of the waters of his own well, 32 until I come; and I will take you to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey; and live, and do not die; and do not listen to Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, Jehovah shall deliver us. 33 Have the gods of the nations at all delivered each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of the lands have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people kept silent and did not answer him a word, for the command of the king was, saying, Do not answer him. 37 And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came in to Hezekiah, having torn their garments; and they told him the words of the chief of the cupbearers.

YECHIZQI YAH REIGNS IN YERU SHALEM
And so be it, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah sovereign of Yisra El, Yechizqi Yah the son of Achaz sovereign of Yah Hudah reigns: 2 a son of twenty-five years when he begins to reign; and he reigns twenty-nine years in Yeru Shalem: the name of his mother, Abi the daughter of Zechar Yah: 3 and he works straight in the eyes of Yah Veh, according to all David his father worked: 4 he turns aside the bamahs and breaks the monoliths and cuts down the asherim and crushes the copper serpent Mosheh worked: for in those days the sons of Yisra El incensed to it: and he called it Coppery/Nechustan. 5 He confides in Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El; and there is none like him among all the sovereigns of Yah Hudah - neither after him nor at his face: 6 and he adheres to Yah Veh and turns not aside from after him; but guards the misvoth Yah Veh misvahed Mosheh: 7 and Yah Veh is with him; he comprehends wherever he goes: and he rebels against the sovereign of Ashshur and serves him not: 8 he smites the Peleshethiy to Azzah - to the borders; from the tower of the guards to the fortified city. 9 And so be it, in the fourth year of sovereign Yechizqi Yah - the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah sovereign of Yisra El, Shalmaneser sovereign of Ashshur ascends against Shomeron and besieges it: 10 and at the end of three years they capture it: in the sixth year of Yechizqi Yah - in the ninth year of Hoshea sovereign of Yisra El Shomeron is captured: 11 and the sovereign of Ashshur exiles Yisra El to Ashshur; and guides them in Halach and in Habor by the river Gozan; and in the cities of the Madaim: 12 because they hearken not to the voice of Yah Veh their Elohim; but trespass his covenant; and all that Mosheh the servant of Yah Veh misvahed they neither hearken nor work them. 13 And in the fourteenth year of sovereign Yechizqi Yah, Sancherib sovereign of Ashshur ascends against all the cut off cities of Yah Hudah and apprehends them. 14 And Yechizqi Yah sovereign of Yah Hudah sends to the sovereign of Ashshur to Lachish saying, I sinned; turn away from me: whatever you give on me, I bear. And the sovereign of Ashshur sets to Yechizqi Yah sovereign of Yah Hudah three hundred rounds of silver and thirty rounds of gold: 15 and Yechizqi Yah gives him all the silver found in the house of Yah Veh and in the treasures of the house of the sovereign. 16 At that time, Yechizqi Yah chops off the doors of the manse of Yah Veh and the pillars Yechizqi Yah sovereign of Yah Hudah overlaid; and gives them to the sovereign of Ashshur: 17 and the sovereign of Ashshur sends Tartan the chief eunuch and Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler from Lachish to sovereign Yechizqi Yah with heavy valiant against Yeru Shalem: and they ascend and come to Yeru Shalem: and they ascend and come and stand by the Pool Elyon in the highway of the field of the fuller: 18 and they call to the sovereign; and El Yaqim the son of Hilqi Yah who is over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Yah Ach the son of Asaph the remembrancer go out to them. 19 And Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler says to them, Now say to Yechizqi Yah, Thus says the great sovereign the sovereign of Ashshur, What is this confidence wherein you confide? 20 For you said, They are but words of lips! I have counsel and might for the war! Now on whom confide you, to rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, confide you on the staff of this crushed stalk - on Misrayim - on which, if a man prop, it goes into his palm and pierces? Thus is Paroh sovereign of Misrayim to all who confide on him. 22 And if you say to me, We confide in Yah Veh our Elohim! - Is that not he, whose bamahs and whose sacrifice altars Yechizqi Yah turned aside? - Who said to Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem, Prostrate at the face of this sacrifice altar in Yeru Shalem? 23 And now, I beseech you, pledge to my adoni the sovereign of Ashshur and I give you two thousand horses if you can, for your part, give riders on them. 24 How then turn you away the face of one governor of the least of the servants of my adoni to confide on Misrayim for chariots and for cavalry? 25 Now, ascend I without Yah Veh, against this place to ruin it? Yah Veh says to me, Ascend against this land and ruin it. 26 And El Yaqim the son of Hilqi Yah and Shebna and Yah Ach say to Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler, Word, I beseech you, to your servants in Aramaic; for we hear it: and word not with us in Yah Hudaic in the ears of the people on the wall. 27 And Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler says to them, My adoni, sends he me to word these words to your master and to you? - and not to the men who settle on the wall - to eat their own dungs and drink the urine at their feet with you? 28 Then Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler stands and calls with a great voice in Yah Hudaic, and words saying, Hear the word of the great sovereign - the sovereign of Ashshur; 29 thus says the sovereign, Neither let Yechizqi Yah deceive you for he is not able to rescue you from his hand: 30 nor let Yechizqi Yah have you confide in Yah Veh saying, In rescuing, Yah Veh rescues us; that this city not be given into the hand of the sovereign of Ashshur: 31 Hearken not to Yechizqi Yah: for thus says the sovereign of Ashshur, Work a blessing with me and come out to me; and eat - every man of you of his own vine and every man of his fig tree and drink - every man of you of the waters of his well: 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land - a land of crop and juice a land of bread and vineyards a land of oil olive and of honey - to live and not die: and hearken not to Yechizqi Yah, who goads you, saying, Yah Veh rescues us. 33 In rescuing, have any of the elohim of the goyim rescued a man his land from the hand of the sovereign of Ashshur? 34 Where are the elohim of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the elohim of Sepharvayim, Hena and Avva? Rescued they Shomeron from my hand? 35 Who are they among all the elohim of the lands who rescued their land from my hand, that Yah Veh rescue Yeru Shalem from my hand? 36 And the people hush and answer him not a word: for the misvah of the sovereign is, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then El Yaqim the son of Hilqi Yah who is over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Yah Ach the son of Asaph the remembrancer, come to Yechizqi Yah with their clothes ripped and tell him the words of Rab Shaqeh/the chief butler.
ACV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah, and he broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made. For to those days the sons of Israel burned incense to it, and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in LORD, the God of Israel, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 6 For he clung to LORD. He did not depart from following him, but kept his commandments, which LORD commanded Moses. 7 And LORD was with him. Wherever he went forth he prospered. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and did not serve him. 8 He smote the Philistines to Gaza and the borders of it, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it. Samaria was taken in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel. 11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria, and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of LORD commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended. Return from me. That which thou put on me I will bear. And the king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they came up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said to them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which thou trust? 20 Thou say (but they are but vain words), There is counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do thou trust that thou have rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, thou trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leans it will go into his hand, and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him. 22 But if ye say to me, We trust in LORD our God, is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then can thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without LORD against this place to destroy it? LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, said to Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. And do not speak with us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people who are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said to them, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? Has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own urine with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in LORD, saying, LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not hearken to Hezekiah. For thus says the king of Assyria, Make your peace with me, and come out to me. And eat ye every man of his vine, and every man of his fig tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his own cistern, 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and of honey, that ye may live, and not die. And do not hearken to Hezekiah when he persuades you, saying, LORD will deliver us. 33 Have any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people were silent, and did not answer him a word, for the king's commandment was, saying, Do not answer him. 37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

They went up and came to Jerusalem. When they had come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller’s field. 18 When they had called to the king, Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder came out to them. 19 Rabshakeh said to them, “Say now to Hezekiah, ‘The great king, the king of Assyria, says, “What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 You say (but they are but vain words), ‘There is counsel and strength for war.’ Now on whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt. If a man leans on it, it will go into his hand, and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him. 22 But if you tell me, ‘We trust in Yahweh our God;’ isn’t that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, ‘You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?’ 23 Now therefore, please give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them. 24 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without Yahweh against this place to destroy it? Yahweh said to me, ‘Go up against this land, and destroy it.’”’” 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, Shebnah, and Joah, said to Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. Don’t speak with us in the Jews’ language, in the hearing of the people who are on the wall.” 27 But Rabshakeh said to them, “Has my master sent me to your master and to you, to speak these words? Hasn’t he sent me to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own urine with you?” 28 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and spoke, saying, “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 The king says, ‘Don’t let Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 Don’t let Hezekiah make you trust in Yahweh, saying, “Yahweh will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” 31 Don’t listen to Hezekiah.’ For the king of Assyria says, ‘Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone of you eat from his own vine, and everyone from his own fig tree, and everyone drink water from his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and of honey, that you may live, and not die.

  1 H7969 Now it happened in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H2396 that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 began to reign.
  2 H6242 He was twenty - H2568 five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 when he began to reign; H4427 and he reigned H6242 twenty - H8672 nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem: H517 and his mother's H8034 name H21 was Abi H1323 the daughter H2148 of Zechariah.
  3 H6213 He did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the eyes H3068 of Yahweh, H1732 according to all that David H1 his father H6213 had done.
  4 H5493 He removed H1116 the high places, H7665 and broke H4676 the pillars, H3772 and cut down H842 the Asherah: H3807 and he broke in pieces H5178 the bronze H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 had made; H3117 for in those days H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H6999 burned incense H7121 to it; and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 He trusted H3068 in Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel; H310 so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah, H6440 nor among them that were before him.
  6 H1692 For he joined H3068 with Yahweh; H5493 he didn't depart H310 from following H8104 him, but kept H4687 his commandments, H3068 which Yahweh H6680 commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 Yahweh H3318 was with him; wherever he went forth H7919 he prospered: H4775 and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria, H5647 and didn't serve him.
  8 H5221 He struck H6430 the Philistines H5804 to Gaza H1366 and its borders, H4026 from the tower H5341 of the watchmen H4013 to the fortified H5892 city.
  9 H7243 It happened in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H7637 which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8022 that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came up H8111 against Samaria, H6696 and besieged it.
  10 H7097 At the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 they took H8337 it: in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah, H8672 which was the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8111 Samaria H3920 was taken.
  11 H4428 The king H804 of Assyria H3478 carried Israel H1540 away H804 to Assyria, H5148 and put H2477 them in Halah, H2249 and on the Habor, H5104 the river H1470 of Gozan, H5892 and in the cities H4074 of the Medes,
  12 H8085 because they didn't obey H6963 the voice H3068 of Yahweh H430 their God, H5674 but transgressed H1285 his covenant, H4872 even all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of Yahweh H6680 commanded, H8085 and would not hear H6213 it, nor do it.
  13 H702 Now in the fourteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H5576 Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came up H1219 against all the fortified H5892 cities H3063 of Judah, H8610 and took them.
  14 H2396 Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish, H559 saying, H2398 "I have offended; H7725 return H5414 from me. That which you put H5375 on me, I will bear." H4428 The king H804 of Assyria H7760 appointed H2396 to Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 Hezekiah H5414 gave H3701 him all the silver H4672 that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of Yahweh, H214 and in the treasures H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time, H2396 Hezekiah H7112 cut off H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of Yahweh, H547 and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 had overlaid, H5414 and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 The king H804 of Assyria H7971 sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 army H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 They went up H935 and came H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 When they had come up, H935 they came H5975 and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool, H4546 which is in the highway H3526 of the fuller's H7704 field.
  18 H7121 When they had called H4428 to the king, H3318 there came out H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H7644 and Shebnah H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder.
  19 H7262 Rabshakeh H559 said H559 to them, "Say H2396 now to Hezekiah, H559 ‘Thus says H1419 the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H986 "What confidence H982 is this in which you trust?
  20 H559 You say H8193 (but they are but vain H1697 words), H6098 ‘There is counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for war.' H982 Now on whom do you trust, H4775 that you have rebelled against me?
  21 H982 Now, behold, you trust H4938 in the staff H7533 of this bruised H7070 reed, H4714 even in Egypt. H376 If a man H5564 leans H935 on it, it will go H3709 into his hand, H5344 and pierce H6547 it. So is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 to all who trust on him.
  22 H559 But if you tell H982 me, ‘We trust H3068 in Yahweh H430 our God;' H1116 isn't that he whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 has taken away, H559 and has said H3063 to Judah H3389 and to Jerusalem, H7812 ‘You shall worship H6440 before H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?'
  23 H6148 Now therefore, please give pledges H113 to my master H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H5414 and I will give H505 you two thousand H5483 horses, H3201 if you are able H5414 on your part to set H7392 riders on them.
  24 H7725 How then can you turn away H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants, H982 and put your trust H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 Have I now come up H1107 without H3068 Yahweh H4725 against this place H7843 to destroy H3068 it? Yahweh H559 said H5927 to me, ‘Go up H776 against this land, H7843 and destroy it.'"'"
  26 H471 Then Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H7644 and Shebnah, H3098 and Joah, H559 said H7262 to Rabshakeh, H1696 "Please speak H5650 to your servants H762 in the Syrian language; H8085 for we understand H1696 it. Don't speak H3066 with us in the Jews' language, H241 in the hearing H5971 of the people H2346 who are on the wall."
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 said H113 to them, "Has my master H7971 sent H113 me to your master, H1696 and to you, to speak H1697 these words? H582 Hasn't he sent me to the men H3427 who sit H2346 on the wall, H398 to eat H6675 their own dung, H8354 and to drink H7272 their own water with you?"
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 stood, H7121 and cried H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews' language, H1696 and spoke, H559 saying, H8085 "Hear H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria.
  29 H559 Thus says H4428 the king, H2396 ‘Don't let Hezekiah H5377 deceive H3201 you; for he will not be able H5337 to deliver H3027 you out of his hand.
  30 H2396 Neither let Hezekiah H982 make you trust H3068 in Yahweh, H559 saying, H3068 "Yahweh H5337 will surely H5337 deliver H5892 us, and this city H5414 shall not be given H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria."
  31 H8085 Don't listen H2396 to Hezekiah.' H559 For thus says H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H6213 ‘Make H1293 your peace H3318 with me, and come out H376 to me; and everyone H398 of you eat H1612 of his vine, H376 and everyone H8384 of his fig tree, H376 and everyone H8354 drink H4325 the waters H953 of his own cistern;
  32 H935 until I come H3947 and take you away H776 to a land H776 like your own land, H776 a land H1715 of grain H8492 and new wine, H776 a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards, H776 a land H2132 of olive H3323 trees H1706 and of honey, H2421 that you may live, H4191 and not die. H8085 Don't listen H2396 to Hezekiah, H5496 when he persuades H559 you, saying, H3068 "Yahweh H5337 will deliver us."
  33 H376 Has any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 ever H5337 delivered H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath, H774 and of Arpad? H430 Where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim, H2012 of Hena, H5755 and Ivvah? H5337 Have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the countries, H5337 that have delivered H776 their country H3027 out of my hand, H3068 that Yahweh H5337 should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?'"
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 held their peace, H6030 and answered H1697 him not a word; H4428 for the king's H4687 commandment H559 was, H6030 "Don't answer him."
  37 H471 Then Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 who was over the household, H935 came H7644 with Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder, H2396 to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 torn, H5046 and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.
NHEB(i) 1 Now it happened in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: and he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made; for in those days the children of Israel burned incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among them that were before him. 6 For he joined with the LORD; he did not depart from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 The LORD was with him; wherever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and did not serve him. 8 He struck the Philistines to Gaza and its borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 9 It happened in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 At the end of three years they took it: in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 The king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria, and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, "I have offended; return from me. That which you put on me, I will bear." The king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time, Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the LORD's temple, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 The king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army to Jerusalem. They went up and came to Jerusalem and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the Launderers' Field. 18 When they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 Rabshakeh said to them, "Say now to Hezekiah, 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, "What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 Do you think that empty words are strategy and power for war? Now on whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me? 21 Now, look, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt. If a man leans on it, it will go into his hand, and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him. 22 But if you tell me, 'We trust in the LORD our God;' isn't that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?' 23 Now therefore, please give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them. 24 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, 'Go up against this land, and destroy it.'"'" 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, said to Rabshakeh, "Please speak to your servants in the Aramaic language; for we understand it. Do not speak with us in the Jews' language, in the hearing of the people who are on the wall." 27 But Rabshakeh said to them, "Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? Hasn't he sent me to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own water with you?" 28 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying, "Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus says the king, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of my hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, "The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria." 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah.' For thus says the king of Assyria, 'Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone of you eat of his vine, and everyone of his fig tree, and everyone drink the waters of his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and of honey, that you may live, and not die. Do not listen to Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, "The LORD will deliver us." 33 Has any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'" 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word; for the king's commandment was, "Do not answer him." 37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, came with Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
AKJV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the images, and cut down the groves, and broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made: for to those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. 6 For he held to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered wherever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines, even to Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is in the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel to Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which you put on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said to them, Speak you now to Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein you trust? 20 You say, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust on the staff of this bruised reed, even on Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust on him. 22 But if you say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray you, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver you two thousand horses, if you be able on your part to set riders on them. 24 How then will you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, to Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray you, to your servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said to them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? has he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own urine with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Listen not to Hezekiah: for thus said the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat you every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink you every one the waters of his cistern: 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that you may live, and not die: and listen not to Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Has any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

  1 H1961 Now it came H7969 to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H2396 that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 began to reign.
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 was he when he began to reign; H4427 and he reigned H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem. H517 His mother’s H8034 name H21 also was Abi, H1323 the daughter H2148 of Zachariah.
  3 H6213 And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the sight H3068 of the LORD, H3605 according to all H1732 that David H1 his father H6213 did.
  4 H5493 He removed H1116 the high H7665 places, and broke H4676 the images, H3772 and cut H842 down the groves, H3807 and broke H5178 in pieces the brazen H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 had made: H1992 for to those H3117 days H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H6999 did burn H6999 incense H7121 to it: and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 He trusted H3068 in the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel; H310 so that after H3808 him was none H3644 like H3605 him among all H4428 the kings H3063 of Judah, H6440 nor any that were before him.
  6 H1692 For he held H3068 to the LORD, H5493 and departed H310 not from following H8104 him, but kept H4687 his commandments, H834 which H3068 the LORD H6680 commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And the LORD H7919 was with him; and he prospered H3605 wherever H834 H3318 he went H3318 forth: H4775 and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria, H5647 and served him not.
  8 H5221 He smote H6430 the Philistines, H5804 even to Gaza, H1366 and the borders H4026 thereof, from the tower H5341 of the watchmen H4013 to the fenced H5892 city.
  9 H1961 And it came H7243 to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H1958 which H7651 was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8022 that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came H5921 up against H8111 Samaria, H6696 and besieged it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 they took H8337 it: even in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah, H8672 that is in the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8111 Samaria H3920 was taken.
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H1540 did carry H1540 away H3478 Israel H804 to Assyria, H5148 and put H2477 them in Halah H2249 and in Habor H5104 by the river H1470 of Gozan, H5892 and in the cities H4074 of the Medes:
  12 H3282 Because H834 H8085 they obeyed H6963 not the voice H3068 of the LORD H430 their God, H5674 but transgressed H1285 his covenant, H3605 and all H4872 that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of the LORD H6680 commanded, H8085 and would not hear H3808 them, nor H6213 do them.
  13 H702 Now in the fourteenth H6240 H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 did Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 come H5921 up against H3605 all H1219 the fenced H5892 cities H3063 of Judah, H8610 and took them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish, H559 saying, H2398 I have offended; H7725 return H834 from me: that which H5414 you put H5921 on H5375 me will I bear. H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 appointed H2396 to Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 gave H3605 him all H3701 the silver H4672 that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of the LORD, H214 and in the treasures H4428 of the king’s H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 cut H1817 off the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of the LORD, H547 and from the pillars H834 which H2396 Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 had overlaid, H5414 and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rabshakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 host H3389 against Jerusalem. H5927 And they went H935 up and came H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 And when they were come H935 up, they came H5975 and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool, H834 which H4546 is in the highway H3526 of the fuller’s H7704 field.
  18 H7121 And when they had called H4428 to the king, H3318 there came H471 out to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H834 which H5921 was over H1004 the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder.
  19 H7262 And Rabshakeh H559 said H559 to them, Speak H4994 you now H2396 to Hezekiah, H3541 Thus H559 said H1419 the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H4100 What H986 confidence H2088 is this H834 wherein H982 you trust?
  20 H559 You say, H8193 (but they are but vain H1697 words,) H6098 I have counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war. H6258 Now H5921 on H4310 whom H982 do you trust, H4775 that you rebel against me?
  21 H6258 Now, H2009 behold, H982 you trust H4938 on the staff H2088 of this H7533 bruised H7070 reed, H4714 even on Egypt, H5921 on H834 which H834 if H376 a man H5564 lean, H935 it will go H3709 into his hand, H5344 and pierce H3651 it: so H6547 is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H3605 to all H982 that trust H5921 on him.
  22 H3588 But if H559 you say H982 to me, We trust H3068 in the LORD H430 our God: H834 is not that he, whose H853 H1116 high H853 places and whose H4196 altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 has taken H5493 away, H559 and has said H3063 to Judah H3389 and Jerusalem, H7812 You shall worship H6440 before H2088 this H4196 altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6258 Now H4994 therefore, I pray H6148 you, give pledges H113 to my lord H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H5414 and I will deliver H505 you two thousand H5483 horses, H518 if H3201 you be able H5414 on your part to set H7392 riders on them.
  24 H349 How H7725 then will you turn H6440 away the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master’s H5650 servants, H982 and put your trust H5921 on H4714 Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H6258 Am I now H5927 come H1107 up without H3068 the LORD H5921 against H2088 this H4725 place H7843 to destroy H3068 it? The LORD H559 said H5927 to me, Go H5921 up against H2063 this H776 land, H7843 and destroy it.
  26 H559 Then said H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H7644 and Shebna, H3098 and Joah, H7262 to Rabshakeh, H1696 Speak, H4994 I pray H5650 you, to your servants H762 in the Syrian H8085 language; for we understand H1696 it: and talk H3066 not with us in the Jews’ H241 language in the ears H5971 of the people H5921 that are on H2346 the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rabshakeh H559 said H113 to them, Has my master H7971 sent H113 me to your master, H1696 and to you, to speak H428 these H1697 words? H582 has he not sent me to the men H3427 which sit H5921 on H2346 the wall, H398 that they may eat H2716 their own dung, H8354 and drink H7890 their own urine with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rabshakeh H5975 stood H7121 and cried H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews’ H1696 language, and spoke, H559 saying, H8085 Hear H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria:
  29 H3541 Thus H559 said H4428 the king, H2396 Let not Hezekiah H5377 deceive H3201 you: for he shall not be able H5337 to deliver H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H408 Neither H2396 let Hezekiah H982 make you trust H3068 in the LORD, H559 saying, H3068 The LORD H5337 will surely deliver H2063 us, and this H5892 city H5414 shall not be delivered H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 Listen H2396 not to Hezekiah: H3541 for thus H559 said H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H6213 Make H1293 an agreement with me by a present, H3318 and come H398 out to me, and then eat H376 you every man H1612 of his own vine, H376 and every H376 one H8384 of his fig H8354 tree, and drink H376 you every H376 one H4325 the waters H953 of his cistern:
  32 H5704 Until H935 I come H3947 and take H776 you away to a land H776 like your own land, H776 a land H1715 of corn H8492 and wine, H776 a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards, H776 a land H3323 of oil H2132 olive H1706 and of honey, H2421 that you may live, H4191 and not die: H8085 and listen H2396 not to Hezekiah, H3588 when H5496 he persuades H559 you, saying, H3068 The LORD H5337 will deliver us.
  33 H376 Has any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 delivered H776 at all his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H346 Where H430 are the gods H2574 of Hamath, H774 and of Arpad? H346 where H430 are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim, H2012 Hena, H5755 and Ivah? H5337 have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H4310 Who H3605 are they among all H430 the gods H776 of the countries, H5337 that have delivered H776 their country H3027 out of my hand, H3068 that the LORD H5337 should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 held H2790 their peace, H6030 and answered H1697 him not a word: H4428 for the king’s H4687 commandment H559 was, saying, H6030 Answer him not.
  37 H935 Then came H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H834 which H5921 was over H1004 the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder, H2396 to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 rent, H5046 and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rabshakeh.
KJ2000(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the images, and cut down the idol poles, and broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made: for until those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. 6 For he clung to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered wherever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He struck the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; turn away from me: that which you put on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasuries of the king’s house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah strip the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the aqueduct from the upper pool, which is on the highway of the fuller’s field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rab-shakeh said unto them, Speak you now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 You say, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust in him. 22 But if you say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray you, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders upon them. 24 How then will you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh, Speak, I pray you, to your servants in the Aramaic language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews’ language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat and drink their own waste with you? 28 Then Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus says the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by paying a tribute, and come out to me, and then eat you every man of his own vine, and everyone of his fig tree, and drink you everyone the waters of his cistern: 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil and of honey, that you may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Has any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king’s commandment was, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
UKJV(i) 1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him. 6 For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him; and he prospered anywhere he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He stroke the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is in the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes: 12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which you put on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the launderer's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder. 19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Speak all of you now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein you trust? 20 You say, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him. 22 But if all of you say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, All of you shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray you, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver you two thousand horses, if you be able on your part to set riders upon them. 24 How then will you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray you, to your servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? has he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria: 29 Thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus says the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat all of you every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink all of you every one the waters of his cistern: 32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that all of you may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Has any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand? 36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

  1 H7969 Now it came to pass in the third H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H2396 that Hezekiah H1121 the son H271 of Ahaz H4428 king H3063 of Judah H4427 began to reign.
  2 H6242 Twenty H2568 and five H8141 years H1121 old H4427 was he when he began to reign; H4427 and he reigned H6242 twenty H8672 and nine H8141 years H3389 in Jerusalem. H517 His mother's H8034 name H21 also was Abi, H1323 the daughter H2148 of Zachariah.
  3 H6213 And he did H3477 that which was right H5869 in the sight H3068 of the Lord, H1732 according to all that David H1 his father H6213 did.
  4 H5493 He removed H1116 the high places, H7665 and broke H4676 the images, H3772 and cut down H842 the groves, H3807 and broke in pieces H5178 the bronze H5175 serpent H4872 that Moses H6213 had made: H3117 for unto those days H1121 the sons H3478 of Israel H6999 did burn incense H7121 to it: and he called H5180 it Nehushtan.
  5 H982 He trusted H3068 in the Lord H430 God H3478 of Israel; H310 so that after H4428 him was none like him among all the kings H3063 of Judah, H6440 nor any that were before him.
  6 H1692 For he stuck H3068 to the Lord, H5493 and departed H310 not from following H8104 him, but kept H4687 his commandments, H3068 which the Lord H6680 commanded H4872 Moses.
  7 H3068 And the Lord H7919 was with him; and he prospered H3318 wherever he went forth: H4775 and he rebelled H4428 against the king H804 of Assyria, H5647 and served him not.
  8 H5221 He struck H6430 the Philistines, H5804 even unto Gaza, H1366 and the borders H4026 there, from the tower H5341 of the watchmen H4013 to the fenced H5892 city.
  9 H7243 And it came to pass in the fourth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah, H7637 which was the seventh H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H1121 son H425 of Elah H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8022 that Shalmaneser H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 came up H8111 against Samaria, H6696 and besieged it.
  10 H7097 And at the end H7969 of three H8141 years H3920 they took H8337 it: even in the sixth H8141 year H2396 of Hezekiah, H8672 that is the ninth H8141 year H1954 of Hoshea H4428 king H3478 of Israel, H8111 Samaria H3920 was taken.
  11 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H1540 did carry away H3478 Israel H804 unto Assyria, H5148 and put H2477 them in Halah H2249 and in Habor H5104 by the river H1470 of Gozan, H5892 and in the cities H4074 of the Medes:
  12 H8085 Because they obeyed H6963 not the voice H3068 of the Lord H430 their God, H5674 but transgressed H1285 his covenant, H4872 and all that Moses H5650 the servant H3068 of the Lord H6680 commanded, H8085 and would not hear H6213 them, nor do them.
  13 H702 Now in the fourteenth H8141 year H4428 of king H2396 Hezekiah H5576 did Sennacherib H4428 king H804 of Assyria H5927 come up H1219 against all the fortified H5892 cities H3063 of Judah, H8610 and took them.
  14 H2396 And Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7971 sent H4428 to the king H804 of Assyria H3923 to Lachish, H559 saying, H2398 I have offended; H7725 return H5414 from me: that which you set H5375 on me will I bear. H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7760 appointed H2396 unto Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H7969 three H3967 hundred H3603 talents H3701 of silver H7970 and thirty H3603 talents H2091 of gold.
  15 H2396 And Hezekiah H5414 gave H3701 him all the silver H4672 that was found H1004 in the house H3068 of the Lord, H214 and in the treasures H4428 of the king's H1004 house.
  16 H6256 At that time H2396 did Hezekiah H7112 cut off H1817 the gold from the doors H1964 of the temple H3068 of the Lord, H547 and from the pillars H2396 which Hezekiah H4428 king H3063 of Judah H6823 had overlaid, H5414 and gave H4428 it to the king H804 of Assyria.
  17 H4428 And the king H804 of Assyria H7971 sent H8661 Tartan H7249 and Rabsaris H7262 and Rab–shakeh H3923 from Lachish H4428 to king H2396 Hezekiah H3515 with a great H2426 army H3389 against Jerusalem. H5927 And they went up H935 and came H3389 to Jerusalem. H5927 And when they were come up, H935 they came H5975 and stood H8585 by the conduit H5945 of the upper H1295 pool, H4546 which is in the highway H3526 of the fuller's H7704 field.
  18 H7121 And when they had called H4428 to the king, H3318 there came out H471 to them Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 which was over the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder.
  19 H7262 And Rab–shakeh H559 said H559 unto them, Speak H2396 you now to Hezekiah, H559 Thus says H1419 the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H986 What confidence H982 is this where you trust?
  20 H559 You say, H8193 (but they are but vain H1697 words,) H6098 I have counsel H1369 and strength H4421 for the war. H982 Now on whom do you trust, H4775 that you rebellest against me?
  21 H982 Now, behold, you trust H4938 upon the staff H7533 of this bruised H7070 reed, H4714 even upon Egypt, H376 on which if a man H5564 lean, H935 it will go H3709 into his hand, H5344 and pierce H6547 it: so is Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt H982 unto all that trust on him.
  22 H559 But if you say H982 unto me, We trust H3068 in the Lord H430 our God: H1116 is not that he, whose high places H4196 and whose altars H2396 Hezekiah H5493 has taken away, H559 and has said H3063 to Judah H3389 and Jerusalem, H7812 You shall worship H6440 before H4196 this altar H3389 in Jerusalem?
  23 H6148 Now therefore, I pray you, give pledges H113 to my lord H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H5414 and I will deliver H505 you two thousand H5483 horses, H3201 if you be able H5414 on your part to set H7392 riders upon them.
  24 H7725 How then will you turn away H6440 the face H259 of one H6346 captain H6996 of the least H113 of my master's H5650 servants, H982 and put your trust H4714 on Egypt H7393 for chariots H6571 and for horsemen?
  25 H5927 Am I now come up H1107 without H3068 the Lord H4725 against this place H7843 to destroy H3068 it? The Lord H559 said H5927 to me, Go up H776 against this land, H7843 and destroy it.
  26 H559 Then said H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H7644 and Shebna, H3098 and Joah, H7262 unto Rab–shakeh, H1696 Speak, H5650 I pray you, to your servants H762 in the Syrian language; H8085 for we understand H1696 it: and talk H3066 not with us in the Jews' language H241 in the ears H5971 of the people H2346 that are on the wall.
  27 H7262 But Rab–shakeh H559 said H113 unto them, Has my master H7971 sent H113 me to your master, H1696 and to you, to speak H1697 these words? H582 has he not sent me to the men H3427 which sit H2346 on the wall, H398 that they may eat H6675 their own dung, H8354 and drink H7272 their own piss with you?
  28 H7262 Then Rab–shakeh H5975 stood H7121 and cried H1419 with a loud H6963 voice H3066 in the Jews' language, H1696 and spoke, H559 saying, H8085 Hear H1697 the word H1419 of the great H4428 king, H4428 the king H804 of Assyria:
  29 H559 Thus says H4428 the king, H2396 Let not Hezekiah H5377 deceive H3201 you: for he shall not be able H5337 to deliver H3027 you out of his hand:
  30 H2396 Neither let Hezekiah H982 make you trust H3068 in the Lord, H559 saying, H3068 The Lord H5337 will surely H5337 deliver H5892 us, and this city H5414 shall not be delivered H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria.
  31 H8085 Listen H2396 not to Hezekiah: H559 for thus says H4428 the king H804 of Assyria, H6213 Make H1293 a agreement with me by a present, H3318 and come out H398 to me, and then eat H376 you every man H1612 of his own vine, H376 and every one H8384 of his fig tree, H8354 and drink H376 you every one H4325 the waters H953 of his cistern:
  32 H935 Until I come H3947 and take you away H776 to a land H776 like your own land, H776 a land H1715 of corn H8492 and wine, H776 a land H3899 of bread H3754 and vineyards, H776 a land H3323 of oil H2132 olive H1706 and of honey, H2421 that you may live, H4191 and not die: H8085 and listen H2396 not unto Hezekiah, H5496 when he persuadeth H559 you, saying, H3068 The Lord H5337 will deliver us.
  33 H376 Has any H430 of the gods H1471 of the nations H5337 delivered H5337 at all H776 his land H3027 out of the hand H4428 of the king H804 of Assyria?
  34 H430 Where are the gods H2574 of Hamath, H774 and of Arpad? H430 where are the gods H5617 of Sepharvaim, H2012 Hena, H5755 and Ivah? H5337 have they delivered H8111 Samaria H3027 out of my hand?
  35 H430 Who are they among all the gods H776 of the countries, H5337 that have delivered H776 their country H3027 out of my hand, H3068 that the Lord H5337 should deliver H3389 Jerusalem H3027 out of my hand?
  36 H5971 But the people H2790 held their peace, H6030 and answered H1697 him not a word: H4428 for the king's H4687 commandment H559 was, saying, H6030 Answer him not.
  37 H935 Then came H471 Eliakim H1121 the son H2518 of Hilkiah, H1004 which was over the household, H7644 and Shebna H5608 the scribe, H3098 and Joah H1121 the son H623 of Asaph H2142 the recorder, H2396 to Hezekiah H899 with their clothes H7167 tore, H5046 and told H1697 him the words H7262 of Rab–shakeh.
EJ2000(i) 1 ¶ Now it came to pass in the third year of Hosea, son of Elah, king of Israel, that Hezekiah, the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David, his father, did. 4 He removed the high places and broke the images and cut down the groves and broke in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days, the sons of Israel burned incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. {Heb. a thing of brass} 5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that neither after him nor before was there any like him among all the kings of Judah. 6 For he cleaved unto the LORD and did not depart from following him, but kept his commandments which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him, and he prospered in all things in which he went forth; and he rebelled against the king of Assyria and did not serve him. 8 He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza and the borders thereof, from the towers of the watchmen to the fenced city. 9 ¶ And in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hosea, son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years, they took it; even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hosea, king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 And the king of Assyria carried away Israel unto Assyria and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan and in the cities of the Medes: 12 because they had not hearkened unto the voice of the LORD their God, but had broken his covenant and all that Moses, the slave of the LORD, commanded and would not hear them nor do them. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the fenced cities of Judah and took them. 14 And Hezekiah, king of Judah, sent unto the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; return from me; that which thou puttest on me I will bear. Then the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah, king of Judah, three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasury of the king’s house. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD and from the hinges which Hezekiah, king of Judah, had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 ¶ And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the washer’s field. 18 And they called the king, and Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna, the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the writer of chronicles went out to them. 19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which thou dost trust? 20 Thou sayest (but they are but vain words), I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, thou dost trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it; so is Pharaoh, king of Egypt unto all that trust in him. 22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is he not the one whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give hostages unto my lord, the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou art able on thy part to set riders upon them. 24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s slaves, even though thou dost trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Furthermore, Have I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 26 Then said Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy slaves in the Syrian language, for we understand it, and do not talk with us in the Jews’ language in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Has my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words and not rather to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own piss with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus hath the king said, Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus saith the king of Assyria, Give me a blessing and come out to me, and then each one of you shall eat of their own vine and of their own fig tree, and each one shall drink the waters of their own well, 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives, of oil, and of honey, that ye may live, and not die. Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for he deceives you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. 33 Peradventure have any of the gods of the Gentiles delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where is the god of Hamath and of Arpad? Where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and of Ivah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 What god out of all the gods of the lands has delivered their land out of my hand that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the people remained silent and did not answer him a word, for the king had commanded, saying, Do not answer him. 37 Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna, the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the writer of chronicles, came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
CAB(i) 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the bronze serpent which Moses made, because until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel. And after him there was none like him among the kings of Judah, nor among those that were before him. 6 And he held fast to the Lord, he departed not from following Him; and he kept His commandments, as many as He commanded Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook. And he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. 8 He struck the Philistines, even to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Hezekiah (this is the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel), that Shalmaneser king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, (this is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, when Samaria was taken). 11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the River Gozan, and in the mountains of the Medes; 12 because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed His covenant, in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and hearkened not to them, nor did them. 13 And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the strong cities of Judah, and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachish, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatsoever you shall lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Hezekiah king of Judah a tribute of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians. 17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field. 18 And they cried out to Hezekiah. And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah the steward, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came out to them, 19 and Rabshakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians: What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 You have said, (but they are mere words) I have counsel and strength for war. Now then, in whom do you trust, that you have revolted from me? 21 See now, are you trusting for yourself on this broken staff of reed, even upon Egypt? Whosoever shall lean upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust on him. 22 And whereas you have said to me, We trust on the Lord God: is not this He, whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, and has said to Judah and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 Now therefore, I urge you, make an agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you shall be able on your part to set riders upon them. 24 How then will you turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my master's servants, seeing that you trust on Egypt for chariots and horsemen for yourself. 25 And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, Shebna, and Joah said to Rabshakeh, Speak now to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language; and why do you speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall? 27 And Rabshakeh said to them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? Has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you? 28 And Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians: 29 thus says the king: Let not Hezekiah encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 And let not Hezekiah cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians; hearken not to Hezekiah. 31 For thus says the king of the Assyrians: Gain my favor, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink of the wine of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern; 32 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of grain and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil and honey, and you shall live and not die; and do not hearken to Hezekiah, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you. 33 Have the gods of the nations in any way delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians? 34 Where is the god of Hamath, and of Arpad? Where is the god of Sepharvaim and Hena and Ivah? Indeed, have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who is there among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But the men were silent, and answered him not a word; for there was a commandment of the king, saying, You shall not answer him. 37 And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, the steward, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder came in to Hezekiah, having torn their clothes; and they reported to him the words of Rabshakeh.
LXX2012(i) 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel [that] Ezekias son of Achaz king of Juda began to reign. 2 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Abu, daughter of Zacharias. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did. 4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the brazen serpent which Moses made: because until those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Neesthan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; and after him there was not any like him among the kings of Juda, nor among those that were before him. 6 And he clave to the Lord, he departed not from following him; and he kept his commandments, as many as he commanded Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook: and he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. 8 He struck the Philistines [even] to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Ezekias (this is the seventh year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel,) [that] Salamanassar king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Ezekias, (this [is] the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, when Samaria was taken.) 11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Alae and in Abor, [by] the river Gozan, and [in] the mountains of the Medes; 12 because they listened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed his covenant, [even] in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and listened not [to them], nor did [them]. 13 And in the fourteenth year of king Ezekias came up Sennacherim king of the Assyrians against the strong cities of Juda, and took them. 14 And Ezekias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatever you shall lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Ezekias king of Juda [a tribute of] three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Ezekias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Ezekias cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple, and [from] the pillars which Ezekias king of Juda [had] overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians. 17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Raphis and Rapsakes from Lachis to king Ezekias with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field. 18 And they cried to Ezekias: and there came to him Heliakim the son of Chelcias the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder. 19 And Rapsakes said to them, Say now to Ezekias, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians, What [is] this confidence wherein you trust? 20 You have said, (but [they are] mere words,) [I have] counsel and strength for war. Now then in whom do you trust, that you have revolted from me? 21 See now, are you trusting for yourself on this broken staff of reed, [even] upon Egypt? whoever shall stay himself upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharao king of Egypt to all that trust on him. 22 And whereas you have said to me, We trust on the Lord God: [is] not this he, whose high places and altars Ezekias has removed, and has said to Juda and Jerusalem, You⌃ shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, I pray you, make and agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you shall be able on your part to set riders upon them. 24 How then will you turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my lord's servants? whereas you trust for yourself on Egypt for chariots and horsemen. 25 And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 26 And Heliakim the son of Chelkias, and Somnas, and Joas, said to Rapsakes, Speak now to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language: and why do you speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall? 27 And Rapsakes said to them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? [has he] not [sent me] to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you. 28 And Rapsakes stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians: 29 thus says the king, Let not Ezekias encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand. 30 And let not Ezekias cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians: listen not to Ezekias: 31 for thus says the king of the Assyrians, Gain my favor, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink [of the wine] of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern; 32 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey, and you⌃ shall live and not die: and do not you⌃ listen to Ezekias, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you. 33 Have the Gods of the nations at all delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians? 34 Where is the god of Haemath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Seppharvaim, Ana, and Aba? for have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who [is there] among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 36 But [the men] were silent, and answered him not a word: for [there was] a commandment of the king, saying, You⌃ shall not answer him. 37 And Heliakim the son of Chelcias, the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder came in to Ezekias, having tore their garments; and they reported to him the words of Rapsakes.
NSB(i) 1 Hezekiah son of Ahaz became king of Judah. It was in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel. 2 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king. He ruled in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of Jehovah as David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places. He broke the stone pillars to bits, and cut down the Asherah poles. The brass snake that Moses had made was crushed to powder at his command, because in those days the children of Israel had offerings burned before it, and he gave it the name Nehushtan. 5 Hezekiah had faith in Jehovah, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah who were before him. 6 For his heart was fixed on Jehovah. He did not turn from his ways. Hezekiah obeyed Jehovah’s commandments that Jehovah gave to Moses. 7 Jehovah was with Hezekiah. He did well in everything he did. He took up arms against the king of Assyria and was his servant no longer. 8 He defeated the Philistines as far as Gaza and its limits, from the tower of the watchman to the walled town. 9 It was the fourth year of King Hezekiah, the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel. Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and laid siege to it. 10 It was captured at the end of three years. Samaria was taken in the sixth year of Hezekiah's rule, which was the ninth year of Hoshea, king of Israel. 11 The king of Assyria took Israel away as prisoners into Assyria. They placed them in Halah and in Habor on the river Gozan, and in towns of the Medes. 12 They did not obey the voice of Jehovah their God. In fact they went against his agreement, even against everything ordered by Moses, the servant of Jehovah. They did not listen to or obey Jehovah. 13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them. 14 Hezekiah sent a message to Sennacherib at Lachish: »I have done wrong. Stop your attack and I will pay whatever you demand.« The emperor's answer was that Hezekiah should send him ten tons of silver and one ton of gold. 15 Hezekiah sent him all the silver in the Temple and in the palace treasury. 16 Hezekiah had the gold from the doors of Jehovah’s Temple and from the doorposts plated by him. He stripped it off and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 The king of Assyria sent his commander-in-chief (Tartan), his quartermaster, and his field commander with a large army from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They stood at the channel for the Upper Pool on the road to the Laundryman's Field. 18 They sent for the king, and Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came out to them. 19 The Rabshakeh said to them: »Say to Hezekiah: These are the words of the great king, the king of Assyria: »In what are you placing your hope? 20 »You say you have counsel and [military] strength for war. These are only words. To whom are you looking for support that you rebel against me? 21 »You rely on Egypt that broken reed of a staff. If a man leans on it (relies on its power) his hand (strength) will be pierced (wounded) (diminished). So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who put their faith in him. 22 »If you say to me: We trust in Jehovah our God, is he not the one whose high places and altars have been taken away by Hezekiah. For he told Judah and Jerusalem that worship may only be given before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 »And now, make an agreement with my master, the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put horsemen on them. 24 »How then can you put to shame the least of my master's servants? You put your hope in Egypt for chariots and horsemen: 25 »Have I now come to destroy this place without Jehovah? It was Jehovah who said to me: ‘Go up against this land and make it waste.«’ 26 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, and Shebna and Joah said to the Rabshakeh (the commander): »Will you kindly make use of the Aramaean language in talking to your servants. We are used to it. Do not use the Jews' language in the hearing of the people on the wall.« 27 He replied: »Do you think you and the king are the only ones the king sent me to say these things? No, I am also talking to the people who are sitting on the wall. They will have to eat their excrement and drink their own urine, just as you will.« 28 The official stood up and shouted in Hebrew: »Listen to what the king of Assyria is telling you! 29 »He warns you: ‘Do not let Hezekiah deceive you. Hezekiah cannot save you.’ 30 »Do not let Hezekiah convince you to rely on Jehovah. Do not think that Jehovah will save you or that he will stop our Assyrian army from capturing you.« 31 »Do not listen to Hezekiah. The king of Assyria commands you to come out of the city and surrender. Make peace with me and you will be allowed to eat grapes from your own vines and figs from your own trees, and to drink water from your own wells (cisterns). 32 »The king will resettle you in a country much like your own. There are vineyards to give wine and there is grain for making bread there. It is a land of olives, olive oil, and honey. Do what he commands and you will not die. Do not let Hezekiah fool you into thinking Jehovah will rescue you. 33 »Did the gods of other nations save their countries from the king of Assyria? 34 »Where are they now? Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Did anyone save Samaria? 35 »When did any of the gods of all these countries ever save their country from our king? What makes you think Jehovah can save Jerusalem?« 36 The people kept quiet. They did as King Hezekiah told them. They did not say a word. 37 Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah tore their clothes in grief. They reported to the king what the Assyrian official had said.
ISV(i) 1 Hezekiah Becomes King of Judah
Now it happened that during the third year of the reign of Elah’s son Hoshea, king of Israel, that Ahaz’ son Hezekiah became king. 2 He was 25 years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Zechariah’s daughter Abi. 3 He did what the LORD considered to be right, according to everything that his ancestor David had done.
4 Hezekiah’s Reforms
He removed the high places, demolished the sacred pillars, and tore down the Asherah poles. He also demolished the bronze serpent that Moses had crafted, because the Israelis had been burning incense to it right up until that time. Hezekiah called it a piece of brass. 5 He trusted the LORD God of Israel, and after him there were none like him among all the kings of Judah, 6 because he depended on the LORD, not abandoning pursuit of him, and keeping the LORD’s commands that he had commanded Moses. 7 So the LORD was with him, and Hezekiah prospered wherever he went, even when he rebelled against the king of Assyria, refusing to serve him. 8 He attacked the Philistines, invading Gaza and its borders from watchtower to fortified garrison.
9 Shalmaneser Attacks SamariaIn the fourth year of King Hezekiah’s reign (that is, during the seventh year of Elah’s son Hoshea’s reign as king of Israel), King Shalmaneser from Assyria invaded Samaria and besieged it. 10 Three years later, they captured Samaria during the sixth year of Hezekiah’s reign, which was the ninth year of Hoshea’s reign as king of Israel. 11 After this, the king of Assyria carried Israel off into exile in Assyria, settling them in Halah, on the Habor River in Gozan, and in cities controlled by the Medes, 12 because they would not obey the voice of the LORD their God. Instead, they transgressed his covenant, including everything that Moses, the servant of the LORD, had commanded, by neither listening nor putting what he had commanded into practice.
13 During the fourteenth year of the reign of King Hezekiah, King Sennacherib of Assyria approached all of the walled cities of Judah and seized them. 14 So Hezekiah sent this message to the king of Assyria at Lachish: “I have offended you. Withdraw from me, and I’ll accept whatever tribute you impose.” So the king of Assyria required Hezekiah to pay him 300 talents of silver and 30 talents of gold. 15 Hezekiah gave him all the silver that could be removed from the LORD’s Temple and from the treasuries in the king’s palace. 16 At that time, Hezekiah removed the doors to the LORD’s Temple and the doorposts that he had overlaid with gold, and gave the gold to the king of Assyria.
17 Assyria’s King Taunts Hezekiah
Sometime later, the king of Assyria sent Tartan, Rab-saris, and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah in Jerusalem, accompanied with a large army. 18 When they called for the king, Hilkiah’s son Eliakim, who managed the household, Shebnah the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder went out to them. 19 Rab-shakeh told them, “Tell Hezekiah right now, ‘This is what the great king, the king of Assyria says: ‘“Why are you so confident? 20 You’re saying—but they’re only empty words—‘I have enough advice and resources to conduct warfare!’‘“Now who are you relying on, that you have rebelled against me? 21 Look, you’re trusting on Egypt to lean on like a staff, but it’s a crushed reed, and if you lean on it, it will collapse and pierce your hand. Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is just like that to everyone who relies on him! 22 ‘“Of course, you might tell me, “We rely on the LORD our God!” But isn’t it he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has demolished, all the while telling Jerusalem, “You’re to worship in front of this altar in Jerusalem?”’ 23 ‘“Come now, and make a deal with my master, the king of Assyria, and I’ll give you 2,000 horses, if you can furnish them with riders. 24 How can you refuse even one official from the least of my master’s servants and rely on Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 “Now then, haven’t I come up—apart from the LORD—to attack and destroy this place? The LORD told me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it!’”’”
26 At this, Hilkiah’s son Eliakim, Shebnah, and Joah asked Rab-shakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, because we understand it, but don’t speak the language of Judah to us within the hearing of the people who are on the wall.”
27 But Rab-shakeh spoke to them, “Has my master sent me to talk about this just to your master and to you, and not also to the men who are sitting on the wall, who will soon be eating their own feces and drinking their own urine—along with you?” 28 Then Rab-shakeh stood up and cried out loud, “Listen to what the great king, the king of Assyria has to say. 29 This is what the king says: ‘Don’t let Hezekiah deceive you, because he will prove to be unable to deliver you from my control. 30 And don’t let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD by telling you, “The LORD will certainly deliver us and this city will not be handed over to the king of Assyria.” 31 Don’t listen to Hezekiah, because this is what the king of Assyria says: “Make peace with me and come out to me! Each of you will eat from his own vine. Each will eat from his own fig tree. And each of you will drink water from his own cistern 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, one overflowing with grain and new wine, a land filled with bread and vineyards, with olive trees and honey, so you may live and not die.” ‘But don’t listen to Hezekiah when he misleads you by saying, “The LORD will deliver us!” 33 Has any of the gods of the nations delivered his land from control by the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sephar-vaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria from my control? 35 Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered their land from my control, so that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem from me?’”
36 But the people remained silent and did not answer with even so much as a word, because the king’s order was, “Don’t answer him.”
37 But Hilkiah’s son Eliakim, who managed the household, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came back to Hezekiah with their clothes torn and told him what Rab-shakeh had said.
LEB(i) 1 It happened in the third year of Hoshea the son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah became king. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did right in the eyes of Yahweh according to all that David his ancestor* had done. 4 He removed the high places, and he smashed the stone pillars; he cut down the poles of Asherah worship and demolished the bronze serpent which Moses had made, for up to those days the ⌊Israelites⌋* were offering incense to it and called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in Yahweh the God of Israel; there was no one like him, before or after, among all the kings of Judah. 6 He held on to Yahweh; he did not depart from following him, and he kept his commands that Yahweh had commanded Moses. 7 Yahweh was with him; everywhere he went, he succeeded. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and did not serve him. 8 He attacked the Philistines up to Gaza and its territory from the watchtower up to the fortified city. 9 It happened in the fourth year of King Hezekiah, that is, the seventh year of Hoshea the son of Elah king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came against Samaria and laid siege against her. 10 At the end of three years, he captured it in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is, the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel; Samaria was captured. 11 Then the king of Assyria deported Israel to Assyria and settled them in Halah, in Habor, in the river regions of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not listen to the voice of Yahweh their God, and they transgressed his covenant; all that he had commanded Moses, the servant of Yahweh, they did not listen to nor did they obey. 13 In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all of the fortified cities of Judah and captured them. 14 So Hezekiah king of Judah sent word to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, "I have done wrong. Withdraw from me. What you impose on me I will bear." So the king of Assyria imposed on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 Then Hezekiah gave all of the silver found in the temple of Yahweh and in the storerooms of the house of the king. 16 At that time, Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Yahweh and the doorposts which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and he gave them to the king of Assyria. 17 So the king of Assyria sent the commander in chief, the chief eunuch, and the ⌊chief advisor⌋* from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem with a heavy army. They went up and came to Jerusalem, then they went up and came and stood at the aqueduct of the upper pool which is on the main road of the ⌊washer's⌋* field. 18 Then they called to the king, so Eliakim the son of Hilkiah who was over the palace, Shebna the secretary, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came out to them. 19 Then the chief advisor said to them, "Please say to Hezekiah: 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: "What is this confidence that you trust? 20 You think only a word of lips, 'I have advice and power for the war.' Now, on whom do you trust that you have rebelled against me? 21 Now, look! You ⌊rely⌋* on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt, which when a man leans on it, it goes into his hand and pierces it! So is Pharaoh the king of Egypt for all who are trusting on him! 22 But if you say to me, 'On Yahweh our God we trust,' is it not he whose high places and altars Hezekiah removed, and he had said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'In the presence of this altar you shall bow down only in Jerusalem?' 23 So then, please make a wager with my lord, with the king of Assyria, and I will give to you a thousand horses ⌊if you are able on your part to put riders on them.⌋* 24 How ⌊can you repulse a single captain among the least of the servants of my master⌋*? Yet you rely for yourself on Egypt for chariots and horsemen! 25 Have I now come up against this place without Yahweh to destroy it? Yahweh has said to me, 'Go up against this land and destroy it!'" '" 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah and Shebna and Joah said to the chief commander, "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we are understanding, but you must not speak Judean with us in the ears of the people who are on the wall." 27 The chief commander said to them, "Is it solely to your master and to you my master has sent me to speak these words? Is it not for the men who sit on the wall to eat their feces and to drink their urine with you?" 28 Then the chief commander stood and called with a great voice in Judean, and he spoke and said, "Hear the word of the king, the great king of Assyria! 29 Thus says the king, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to rescue you from my* hand. 30 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in Yahweh, saying, "Certainly Yahweh will rescue us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria!" ' 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria, 'Make with me a treaty of peace and come out to me that each may eat from his vine and each from his fig tree, and each may drink water from his cistern! 32 Until I come and take you to a land like your land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees, olive oil, and honey, that you may live and not die! You must not listen to Hezekiah, for he has misled you by saying, "Yahweh will deliver us!" 33 Did the gods of each of the nations ever rescue the land from the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? For did they rescue Samaria from my hand? 35 Who among all of the gods of the countries have rescued their countries from my hand that Yahweh should rescue Jerusalem from my hand?'" 36 The people were silent, and they did not answer him a word, for the command of that king was saying, "You shall not answer him." 37 Eliakim the son of Hilkiah who was over the palace, and Shebna the secretary, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with torn clothes, and they told him the words of the chief commander.
BSB(i) 1 In the third year of the reign of Hoshea son of Elah over Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz became king of Judah. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David had done. 4 He removed the high places, shattered the sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He also demolished the bronze snake called Nehushtan that Moses had made, for up to that time the Israelites had burned incense to it. 5 Hezekiah trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel. No king of Judah was like him, either before him or after him. 6 He remained faithful to the LORD and did not turn from following Him; he kept the commandments that the LORD had given Moses. 7 And the LORD was with Hezekiah, and he prospered wherever he went. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and refused to serve him. 8 He defeated the Philistines as far as Gaza and its borders, from watchtower to fortified city. 9 In the fourth year of Hezekiah’s reign, which was the seventh year of the reign of Hoshea son of Elah over Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria marched against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years, the Assyrians captured it. So Samaria was captured in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel. 11 The king of Assyria exiled the Israelites to Assyria and settled them in Halah, in Gozan by the Habor River, and in the cities of the Medes. 12 This happened because they did not listen to the voice of the LORD their God, but violated His covenant—all that Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded—and would neither listen nor obey. 13 In the fourteenth year of Hezekiah’s reign, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked and captured all the fortified cities of Judah. 14 So Hezekiah king of Judah sent word to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; withdraw from me, and I will pay whatever you demand from me.” And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the royal palace. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold with which he had plated the doors and doorposts of the temple of the LORD, and he gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 Nevertheless, the king of Assyria sent the Tartan, the Rabsaris, and the Rabshakeh, along with a great army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They advanced up to Jerusalem and stationed themselves by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field. 18 Then they called for the king; and Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, went out to them. 19 The Rabshakeh said to them, “Tell Hezekiah that this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What is the basis of this confidence of yours? 20 You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against me? 21 Look now, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff that will pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him. 22 But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ is He not the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You must worship before this altar in Jerusalem’? 23 Now, therefore, make a bargain with my master, the king of Assyria. I will give you two thousand horses—if you can put riders on them! 24 For how can you repel a single officer among the least of my master’s servants when you depend on Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 So now, was it apart from the LORD that I have come up against this place to destroy it? The LORD Himself said to me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it.’” 26 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, along with Shebnah and Joah, said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, since we understand it. Do not speak with us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall.” 27 But the Rabshakeh replied, “Has my master sent me to speak these words only to you and your master, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are destined with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?” 28 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out loudly in Hebrew: “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria! 29 This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you; he cannot deliver you from my hand. 30 Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, ‘The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’ 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree, and drink water from his own cistern, 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own—a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey—so that you may live and not die. But do not listen to Hezekiah, for he misleads you when he says, ‘The LORD will deliver us.’ 33 Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered his land from my hand? How then can the LORD deliver Jerusalem from my hand?” 36 But the people remained silent and did not answer a word, for Hezekiah had commanded, “Do not answer him.” 37 Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh.

MLV(i) 1 Now it happened in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah King of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah.
3 And he did what was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places and broke the pillars and cut down the Asherah and he broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made. For to those days the sons of Israel burned incense to it and he called it Nehushtan.
5 He trusted in Jehovah, the God of Israel, so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 6 For he clung to Jehovah. He did not depart from following him, but kept his commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses.
7 And Jehovah was with him. Wherever he went forth he prospered. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria and did not serve him. 8 He killed* the Philistines to Gaza and the borders of it, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
9 And it happened in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah King of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it. Samaria was taken in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea King of Israel. 11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria and put them in Halak and on the Habor, the river of Gozan and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of Jehovah their God, but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded and would not hear it, nor do it.
13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended. Return from me. What you put on me I will bear. And the king of Assyria appointed to Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talants of silver and thirty talants of gold. 15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of Jehovah and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of Jehovah and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria.
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they came up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the launder's field. 18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household and Shebnah the scribe and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.
19 And Rabshakeh said to them, Say you* now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 You say (but they are but vain words), There is counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do you trust that you have rebelled against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leans it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh King of Egypt to all who trust on him.
22 But if you* say to me, We trust in Jehovah our God, is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, You* will worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
23 Now therefore, I beseech you, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders upon them. 24 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without Jehovah against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it.
26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah and Shebnah and Joah, said to Rabshakeh, I beseech you, speak to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. And do not speak with us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people who are on the wall. 27 But Rabshakeh said to them, Has my master sent me to your master and to you, to speak these words? Has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, to eat their own manure and to drink their own urine with you*?
28 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language and spoke, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus says the king, Do not let Hezekiah deceive you*, for he will not be able to deliver you* out of his hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you* trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us and this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
31 Do not listen to Hezekiah. For thus says the king of Assyria, Make your* peace with me and come out to me. And eat you* every man of his vine and every man of his fig tree and drink you* every man the waters of his own cistern, 32 until I come and take away to a land like your* own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and of honey, that you* may live and not die. And do not listen to Hezekiah when he persuades you*, saying, Jehovah will deliver us.
33 Have any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
36 But the people were silent and did not answer him a word, for the king's commandment was, saying, Do not answer him. 37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household and Shebna the scribe and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

VIN(i) 1 Now in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, ruling in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years; his mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD as David his father had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah: and he broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made; for in those days the children of Israel burned incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 Hezekiah had faith in the LORD, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah who were before him. 6 He held on to the LORD; he did not depart from following him, and he kept his commands that the LORD had commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was with him. He was blessed wherever he went. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and did not serve him. 8 He smote the Philistines unto Gazah and its borders, from the watchmen`s tower to the fortified city. 9 It was the fourth year of King Hezekiah, the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel. Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and laid siege to it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it. Samaria was taken in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel. 11 Then the king of Assyria deported Israel to Assyria and settled them in Halah, in Habor, in the river regions of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed His covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not listen to them, nor do them. 13 In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all of the fortified cities of Judah and captured them. 14 So Hezekiah king of Judah sent word to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, "I have done wrong. Withdraw from me. What you impose on me I will bear." So the king of Assyria imposed on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house. 16 And at that time Hezekiah had the gold from the doors of the Lord's house, and from the door-pillars plated by him, cut off and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 The king of Assyria sent his commander-in-chief (Tartan), his quartermaster, and his field commander with a large army from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They stood at the channel for the Upper Pool on the road to the Laundryman's Field. 18 And they called to the king, and Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder went out to them. 19 Rabshakeh told them, "Tell Hezekiah right now, 'This is what the great king, the king of Assyria says: "Why are you so confident? 20 "You say you have counsel and [military] strength for war. These are only words. To whom are you looking for support that you rebel against me? 21 Now, behold, you trust on the staff of this bruised reed, on Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him. 22 And if ye say to me, We rely upon the LORD our God: is it not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? 23 And now, take a chance with my master, the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put horsemen on them. 24 How can you refuse even one official from the least of my master's servants and rely on Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 Furthermore, Have I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 26 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah and Shebna and Joah said to the chief commander, "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we are understanding, but you must not speak Judean with us in the ears of the people who are on the wall." 27 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Is it to thy master and to thee that my master sent me to speak these words? Is it not to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you? 28 Then Rabshakeh stood up and cried out loud, "Listen to what the great king, the king of Assyria has to say. 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Ezekias deceive you; for he cannot deliver you out of his hand. 30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, the LORD will surely deliver us and this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. 31 Don't listen to Hezekiah.' For the king of Assyria says, 'Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone of you eat from his own vine, and everyone from his own fig tree, and everyone drink water from his own cistern; 32 Until I come and take you to a land like your land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees, olive oil, and honey, that you may live and not die! You must not listen to Hezekiah, for he has misled you by saying, "the LORD will deliver us!" 33 Has any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? For did they rescue Samaria from my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered their land from my control, so that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem from me?"'" 36 But the people remained silent and did not answer him a word, for the king had commanded, saying, Do not answer him. 37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Luther1545(i) 1 Im dritten Jahr Hoseas, des Sohns Elas, des Königs Israels, ward König Hiskia, der Sohn Ahas des Königs Judas. 2 Und war fünfundzwanzig Jahre alt, da er König ward, und regierete neunundzwanzig Jahre zu Jerusalem. Seine Mutter hieß Abi, eine Tochter Sacharjas. 3 Und tat, was dem HERRN wohlgefiel, wie sein Vater David. 4 Er tat ab die Höhen und zerbrach die Säulen und rottete die Haine aus und zerstieß die eherne Schlange, die Mose gemacht hatte; denn bis zu der Zeit hatten ihr die Kinder Israel geräuchert, und man hieß sie Nehusthan. 5 Er vertrauete dem HERRN, dem Gott Israels, daß nach ihm seinesgleichen nicht war unter allen Königen Judas, noch vor ihm gewesen. 6 Er hing dem HERRN an und wich nicht hinten von ihm ab und hielt seine Gebote, die der HERR Mose geboten hatte. 7 Und der HERR war mit ihm; und wo er auszog, handelte er klüglich. Dazu ward er abtrünnig vom Könige zu Assyrien und war ihm nicht untertan. 8 Er schlug auch die Philister bis gen Gasa und ihre Grenze, von den Schlössern an bis an die festen Städte. 9 Im vierten Jahr Hiskias, des Königs Judas (das war das siebente Jahr Hoseas, des Sohns Elas, des Königs Israels), da zog Salmanesser, der König zu Assyrien, herauf wider Samaria und belagerte sie; 10 und gewann sie nach dreien Jahren, im sechsten Jahr Hiskias; das ist, im neunten Jahr Hoseas, des Königs Israels, da ward Samaria gewonnen. 11 Und der König zu Assyrien führete Israel weg gen Assyrien und setzte sie zu Halah und Habor, am Wasser Gosan, und in die Städte der Meder, 12 darum daß sie nicht gehorchet hatten der Stimme des HERRN, ihres Gottes, und übergangen hatten seinen Bund und alles, was Mose, der Knecht des HERRN, geboten hatte; der hatten sie keinem gehorchet noch getan. 13 Im vierzehnten Jahr aber des Königs Hiskia zog herauf Sanherib, der König zu Assyrien, wider alle festen Städte Judas und nahm sie ein. 14 Da sandte Hiskia, der König Judas, zum Könige von Assyrien gen Lachis und ließ ihm sagen: Ich habe mich versündiget, kehre um von mir; was du mir auflegest, will ich tragen. Da legte der König von Assyrien auf Hiskia, dem Könige Judas, dreihundert Zentner Silbers und dreißig Zentner Goldes. 15 Also gab Hiskia all das Silber, das im Hause des HERRN und in den Schätzen des Königshauses funden ward. 16 Zur selbigen Zeit zerbrach Hiskia, der König Judas, die Türen am Tempel des HERRN und die Bleche, die er selbst hatte überziehen lassen, und gab sie dem Könige von Assyrien. 17 Und der König von Assyrien sandte Tharthan und den Erzkämmerer und den Rabsake von Lachis zum Könige Hiskia mit großer Macht gen Jerusalem; und sie zogen herauf. Und da sie hinkamen, hielten sie an der Wassergrube bei dem obern Teich, der da liegt an der Straße auf dem Acker des Walkmüllers. 18 Und rief dem Könige. Da kam heraus zu ihnen Eliakim, der Sohn Hilkias, der Hofmeister, und Sebena, der Schreiber, und Joah, der Sohn Assaphs, der Kanzler. 19 Und der Erzschenke sprach zu ihnen: Lieber, sagt dem Könige Hiskia: So spricht der große König, der König von Assyrien: Was ist das für ein Trotz, darauf du dich verlässest? 20 Meinest du, es sei noch Rat und Macht zu streiten? Worauf verlässest du denn nun dich, daß du abtrünnig von mir bist worden? 21 Siehe, verlässest du dich auf diesen zerstoßenen Rohrstab, auf Ägypten? welcher, so sich jemand drauf lehnet, wird er ihm in die Hand gehen und sie durchbohren. Also ist Pharao, der König in Ägypten, allen, die sich auf ihn verlassen. 22 Ob ihr aber wolltet zu mir sagen: Wir verlassen uns auf den HERRN, unsern Gott, ist's denn nicht der, des Höhen und Altäre Hiskia hat abgetan und gesagt zu Juda und Jerusalem: Vor diesem Altar, der zu Jerusalem ist, sollt ihr anbeten? 23 Nun gelobe meinem HERRN, dem Könige von Assyrien; ich will dir zweitausend Rosse geben, daß du mögest Reiter dazu geben. 24 Wie willst du denn bleiben vor dem geringsten HERRN, einem meines HERRN Untertanen, und verlässest dich auf Ägypten um der Wagen und Reiter willen? 25 Meinest du aber, ich sei ohne den HERRN heraufgezogen, daß ich diese Stätte verderbete? Der HERR hat mich's geheißen: Zeuch hinauf in dies Land und verderbe es! 26 Da sprach Eliakim, der Sohn Hilkias, und Sebena und Joah zum Erzschenken: Rede mit deinen Knechten auf syrisch, denn wir verstehen es; und rede nicht mit uns auf jüdisch vor den Ohren des Volks, das auf der Mauer ist. 27 Aber der Erzschenke sprach zu ihnen: Hat mich denn mein HERR zu deinem HERRN oder zu dir gesandt, daß ich solche Worte rede? Ja zu den Männern, die auf der Mauer sitzen, daß sie mit euch ihren eigenen Mist fressen und ihren Harn saufen. 28 Also stund der Erzschenke und rief mit lauter Stimme auf jüdisch; und redete und sprach: Höret das Wort des großen Königs, des Königs von Assyrien! 29 So spricht der König: Laßt euch Hiskia nicht aufsetzen; denn er vermag euch nicht zu erretten von meiner Hand. 30 Und laßt euch Hiskia nicht vertrösten auf den HERRN, daß er saget Der HERR wird uns erretten, und diese Stadt wird nicht in die Hände des Königs von Assyrien gegeben werden! 31 Gehorchet Hiskia nicht! Denn so spricht der König von Assyrien: Nehmet an meine Gnade und kommet zu mir heraus, so soll jedermann seines Weinstocks und seines Feigenbaums essen und seines Brunnens trinken, 32 bis ich komme und hole euch in ein Land, das eurem Lande gleich ist, da Korn, Most, Brot, Weinberge, Ölbäume, Öl und Honig innen ist; so werdet ihr leben bleiben und nicht sterben. Gehorchet Hiskia nicht; denn er verführet euch, daß er spricht: Der HERR wird uns erretten. 33 Haben auch die Götter der Heiden ein jeglicher sein Land errettet von der Hand des Königs von Assyrien? 34 Wo sind die Götter zu Hemath und Arphad? Wo sind die Götter zu Sepharvaim, Hena und Iwa? Haben sie auch Samaria errettet von meiner Hand? 35 Wo ist ein Gott unter aller Lande Göttern, die ihr Land haben von meiner Hand errettet, daß der HERR sollte Jerusalem von meiner Hand erretten? 36 Das Volk aber schwieg stille und antwortete ihm nichts; denn der König hatte geboten und gesagt: Antwortet ihm nichts! 37 Da kam Eliakim, der Sohn Hilkias, der Hofmeister, und Sebena, der Schreiber, und Joah, der Sohn Assaphs, der Kanzler, zu Hiskia mit zerrissenen Kleidern und sagten ihm an die Worte des Erzschenken.

  29 H559 So spricht H4428 der König H5377 : Laßt euch H2396 Hiskia H3201 nicht aufsetzen; denn er vermag H5337 euch nicht zu erretten H3027 von meiner Hand .
  30 H559 Und H2396 laßt euch Hiskia H5337 nicht H3068 vertrösten auf den HErrn H3068 , daß er saget Der HErr H982 wird uns H5337 erretten H5892 , und diese Stadt H3027 wird nicht in die Hände H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien H5414 gegeben werden!
  31 H2396 Gehorchet Hiskia H4325 nicht! Denn so H559 spricht H1612 der H4428 König H3318 von H804 Assyrien H1293 : Nehmet an meine Gnade H6213 und H8085 kommet zu H376 mir heraus, so soll jedermann H376 seines Weinstocks und H398 seines Feigenbaums essen H376 und H953 seines Brunnens H8354 trinken,
  32 H776 bis ich komme und H776 hole euch in ein Land H776 , das H776 eurem Lande H935 gleich ist H1715 , da Korn H8492 , Most H3899 , Brot H3754 , Weinberge H2132 , Ölbäume H3323 , Öl H776 und H1706 Honig H3947 innen ist H4191 ; so werdet ihr leben bleiben und nicht sterben H2396 . Gehorchet Hiskia H2421 nicht; denn er H559 verführet euch, daß er spricht H3068 : Der HErr H8085 wird uns H5337 erretten .
  33 H5337 Haben auch H430 die Götter H1471 der Heiden H376 ein H776 jeglicher sein Land H3027 errettet von der Hand H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien ?

  36 H1697 Das H5971 Volk H2790 aber schwieg H6030 stille und antwortete H4428 ihm nichts; denn der König H4687 hatte geboten H559 und gesagt H6030 : Antwortet ihm nichts!

Luther1912(i) 1 Im dritten Jahr Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs über Israel, ward König Hiskia, der Sohn Ahas, des Königs in Juda. 2 Er war fünfundzwanzig Jahre alt, da er König ward, und regierte neunundzwanzig Jahre zu Jerusalem. Seine Mutter hieß Abi, eine Tochter Sacharjas. 3 Und er tat, was dem HERRN wohl gefiel, wie sein Vater David. 4 Er tat ab die Höhen und zerbrach die Säulen und rottete das Ascherabild aus und zerstieß die eherne Schlange, die Mose gemacht hatte; denn bis zu der Zeit hatten ihr die Kinder Israel geräuchert, und man hieß sie Nehusthan. 5 Er vertraute dem HERRN, dem Gott Israels, daß nach ihm seinesgleichen nicht war unter allen Königen Juda's noch vor ihm gewesen. 6 Er hing dem HERRN an und wich nicht von ihm ab und hielt seine Gebote, die der HERR dem Mose geboten hatte. 7 Und der HERR war mit ihm; und wo er auszog handelte er klüglich. Dazu ward er abtrünnig vom König von Assyrien und war ihm nicht untertan. 8 Er schlug die Philister bis gen Gaza und ihr Gebiet von den Wachttürmen an bis die festen Städte. 9 Im vierten Jahr Hiskias, des Königs in Juda [das war das siebente Jahr Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs über Israel], da zog Salmanasser, der König von Assyrien, herauf wider Samaria und belagerte es 10 und gewann es nach drei Jahren; im sechsten Jahr Hiskias, das ist im neunten Jahr Hoseas, des Königs Israels, da ward Samaria gewonnen. 11 Und der König von Assyrien führte Israel weg gen Assyrien und setzte sie nach Halah und an den Habor, an das Wasser Gosan und in die Städte der Meder, 12 darum daß sie nicht gehorcht hatten der Stimme des HERRN, ihres Gottes, und übertreten hatten seinen Bund und alles, was Mose, der Knecht des HERRN, geboten hatte; deren sie keines gehört noch getan. 13 Im vierzehnten Jahr aber des Königs Hiskia zog herauf Sanherib, der König von Assyrien, wider alle festen Städte Juda's und nahm sie ein. 14 Da sandte Hiskia, der König Juda's, zum König von Assyrien gen Lachis und ließ ihm sagen: Ich habe mich versündigt. Kehre um von mir; was du mir auflegst, will ich tragen. Da legte der König von Assyrien Hiskia, dem König Juda's, dreihundert Zentner Silber auf und dreißig Zentner Gold. 15 Also gab Hiskia all das Silber, das im Hause des HERRN und in den Schätzen des Königshauses gefunden ward. 16 Zur selben Zeit zerbrach Hiskia, der König Juda's, die Türen am Tempel des HERRN und die Bleche, die er selbst hatte darüberziehen lassen, und gab sie dem König von Assyrien. 17 Und der König von Assyrien sandte den Tharthan und den Erzkämmerer und den Erzschenken von Lachis zum König Hiskia mit großer Macht gen Jerusalem, und sie zogen herauf. Und da sie hinkamen, hielten sie an der Wasserleitung des oberen Teiches, der da liegt an der Straße bei dem Acker des Walkmüllers, 18 und riefen nach dem König. Da kam heraus zu ihnen Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkias, der Hofmeister, und Sebna, der Schreiber, und Joah, der Sohn Asaphs, der Kanzler. 19 Und der Erzschenke sprach zu ihnen: Sagt doch dem König Hiskia: So spricht der große König, der König von Assyrien: Was ist das für ein Trotz, darauf du dich verläßt? 20 Meinst du, es sei noch Rat und Macht, zu streiten? Worauf verläßt du dich denn, daß du mir abtrünnig geworden bist? 21 Siehe, verlässest du dich auf diesen zerstoßenen Rohrstab, auf Ägypten, welcher, so sich jemand darauf lehnt, wird er ihm die Hand durchbohren? Also ist Pharao, der König in Ägypten, allen, die sich auf ihn verlassen. 22 Ob ihr aber wolltet zu mir sagen: Wir verlassen uns auf den HERRN, unsern Gott! ist's denn nicht der, dessen Höhen und Altäre Hiskia hat abgetan und gesagt zu Juda und zu Jerusalem: Vor diesem Altar, der zu Jerusalem ist, sollt ihr anbeten? 23 Wohlan, nimm eine Wette an mit meinem Herrn, dem König von Assyrien: ich will dir zweitausend Rosse geben, ob du könntest Reiter dazu geben. 24 Wie willst du denn bleiben vor der geringsten Hauptleute einem von meines Herrn Untertanen? Und du verläßt dich auf Ägypten um der Wagen und Reiter willen. 25 Meinst du aber, ich sei ohne den HERRN heraufgezogen, daß ich diese Stätte verderbe? Der HERR hat mich's geheißen: Ziehe hinauf in dies Land und verderbe es! 26 Da sprach Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkias und Sebna und Joah zum Erzschenken: Rede mit deinen Knechten auf syrisch, denn deine Knechte verstehen es; und rede nicht mit uns auf jüdisch vor den Ohren des Volks, das auf der Mauer ist. 27 Aber der Erzschenke sprach zu ihnen: Hat mich denn mein Herr zu deinem Herrn oder zu dir gesandt, daß ich solche Worte rede? und nicht vielmehr zu den Männern, die auf der Mauer sitzen, daß sie mit euch ihren eigenen Mist fressen und ihren Harn saufen? 28 Also stand der Erzschenke auf und redete mit lauter Stimme auf jüdisch und sprach: Hört das Wort des großen Königs, des Königs von Assyrien! 29 So spricht der König: Laßt euch Hiskia nicht betrügen; denn er vermag euch nicht zu erretten von meiner Hand. 30 Und laßt euch Hiskia nicht vertrösten auf den HERRN, daß er sagt: Der HERR wird uns erretten, und diese Stadt wird nicht in die Hände des Königs von Assyrien gegeben werden. 31 Gehorchet Hiskia nicht! Denn so spricht der König von Assyrien: Nehmet an meine Gnade und kommt zu mir heraus, so soll jedermann von seinem Weinstock und seinem Feigenbaum essen und von seinem Brunnen trinken, 32 bis ich komme und hole euch in ein Land, das eurem Lande gleich ist, darin Korn, Most, Brot, Weinberge, Ölbäume und Honig sind; so werdet ihr leben bleiben und nicht sterben. Gehorchet Hiskia nicht; denn er verführt euch, daß er spricht: Der HERR wird uns erretten. 33 Haben auch die Götter der Heiden ein jeglicher sein Land errettet von der Hand des Königs von Assyrien? 34 Wo sind die Götter zu Hamath und Arpad? Wo sind die Götter zu Sepharvaim, Hena und Iwwa? Haben sie auch Samaria errettet von meiner Hand? 35 Wo ist ein Gott unter aller Lande Göttern, die ihr Land haben von meiner Hand errettet, daß der HERR sollte Jerusalem von meiner Hand erretten? 36 Das Volk aber schwieg still und antwortete ihm nichts; denn der König hatte geboten und gesagt: Antwortet ihm nichts. 37 Da kamen Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkias, und Sebna, der Schreiber, und Joah, der Sohn Asaphs, der Kanzler, zu Hiskia mit zerrissenen Kleidern und sagten ihm an die Worte des Erzschenken.

  3 H6213 Und er tat H3068 , was dem HERRN H3477 wohl H5869 gefiel H1 , wie sein Vater H1732 H6213 David .
  4 H5493 Er tat H5493 ab H1116 die Höhen H7665 und zerbrach H4676 die Säulen H3772 und rottete H842 das Ascherabild H3772 aus H3807 und zerstieß H5178 die eherne H5175 Schlange H4872 , die Mose H6213 gemacht H3117 hatte; denn bis zu der Zeit H1121 hatten ihr die Kinder H3478 Israel H6999 geräuchert H7121 , und man hieß H5180 sie Nehusthan .
  5 H982 Er vertraute H3068 dem HERRN H430 , dem Gott H3478 Israels H310 , daß nach H4428 ihm seinesgleichen nicht war unter allen Königen H3063 Juda’s H6440 noch vor ihm gewesen.
  6 H1692 Er hing H3068 dem HERRN H1692 an H5493 und wich H310 nicht von H8104 ihm ab und hielt H4687 seine Gebote H3068 , die der HERR H4872 dem Mose H6680 geboten hatte.
  7 H3068 Und der HERR H3318 war mit ihm; und wo er auszog H7919 , handelte H7919 er klüglich H4775 . Dazu ward er abtrünnig H4428 vom König H804 von Assyrien H5647 und war ihm nicht untertan .
  8 H5221 Er schlug H6430 auch die Philister H5804 bis gen Gaza H1366 und ihr Gebiet H4026 H5341 von den Wachttürmen H4013 an bis an die festen H5892 Städte .
  9 H7243 Im vierten H8141 Jahr H2396 Hiskias H4428 , des Königs H7637 in Juda [das war das siebente H8141 Jahr H1954 Hoseas H1121 , des Sohnes H425 Elas H4428 , des Königs H3478 über Israel H5927 , da zog H8022 Salmanasser H4428 , der König H804 von Assyrien H5927 , herauf H8111 wider Samaria H6696 und belagerte es
  10 H3920 und gewann H7097 es nach H7969 drei H8141 Jahren H8337 ; im sechsten H8141 Jahr H2396 Hiskias H8672 , das ist im neunten H8141 Jahr H1954 Hoseas H4428 , des Königs H3478 Israels H8111 , da ward Samaria H3920 gewonnen .
  11 H4428 Und der König H804 von Assyrien H1540 führte H3478 Israel H1540 weg H804 gen Assyrien H5148 und setzte H2477 sie nach Halah H2249 und an den Habor H5104 , an das Wasser H1470 Gosan H5892 und in die Städte H4074 der Meder,
  12 H8085 darum daß sie nicht gehorcht H6963 hatten der Stimme H3068 des HERRN H430 , ihres Gottes H5674 , und übertreten H1285 hatten seinen Bund H4872 und alles, was Mose H5650 , der Knecht H3068 des HERRN H6680 , geboten H8085 hatte; deren hatten sie keines gehört H6213 noch getan .
  13 H702 H6240 Im H8141 Jahr H4428 aber des Königs H2396 Hiskia H5927 zog herauf H5576 Sanherib H4428 , der König H804 von Assyrien H1219 , wider alle festen H5892 Städte H3063 Juda’s H8610 und nahm H8610 sie ein .
  14 H7971 Da sandte H2396 Hiskia H4428 , der König H3063 Juda’s H4428 , zum König H804 von Assyrien H3923 gen Lachis H559 und ließ ihm sagen H2398 : Ich habe mich versündigt H7725 . Kehre H5414 um von mir; was du mir auflegst H5375 , will ich tragen H7760 . Da legte H4428 der König H804 von Assyrien H2396 Hiskia H4428 , dem König H3063 Juda’s H7969 H3967 , H3603 Zentner H3701 Silber H7970 auf und H3603 Zentner H2091 Gold .
  15 H5414 Also gab H2396 Hiskia H3701 all das Silber H1004 , das im Hause H3068 des HERRN H214 und in den Schätzen H4428 H1004 des Königshauses H4672 gefunden ward.
  16 H6256 Zur selben Zeit H7112 zerbrach H2396 Hiskia H4428 , der König H3063 Juda’s H1817 , die Türen H1964 am Tempel H3068 des HERRN H547 und die Bleche H2396 , die er H6823 selbst hatte darüberziehen H5414 lassen, und gab H4428 sie dem König H804 von Assyrien .
  17 H4428 Und der König H804 von Assyrien H7971 sandte H8661 den Tharthan H7249 und den Erzkämmerer H7262 und den Erzschenken H3923 von Lachis H4428 zum König H2396 Hiskia H3515 mit großer H2426 Macht H3389 gen Jerusalem H5927 , und sie zogen herauf H935 . Und da sie hinkamen H5975 , hielten H8585 sie an der Wasserleitung H5945 des oberen H1295 Teiches H4546 , der da liegt an der Straße H7704 bei dem Acker H3526 des Walkmüllers,
  18 H7121 und riefen H4428 nach dem König H3318 . Da kam heraus H471 zu ihnen Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H2518 Hilkias H1004 , der Hofmeister H7644 , und Sebna H5608 , der Schreiber H3098 , und Joah H1121 , der Sohn H623 Asaphs H2142 , der Kanzler .
  19 H7262 Und der Erzschenke H559 sprach H559 zu ihnen: Sagt H2396 doch dem König Hiskia H559 : So spricht H1419 der große H4428 König H4428 , der König H804 von Assyrien H986 : Was ist das für ein Trotz H982 , darauf du dich verlässest ?
  20 H559 Meinst H6098 du, es sei noch Rat H1369 und Macht H4421 , zu streiten H982 ? Worauf verlässest H4775 du dich denn, daß du mir abtrünnig geworden bist?
  21 H982 Siehe, verlässest H7533 du dich auf diesen zerstoßenen H7070 H4938 Rohrstab H4714 , auf Ägypten H376 , welcher, so sich jemand H5564 darauf lehnt H3709 , wird er ihm in die Hand H935 gehen H5344 und sie durchbohren H6547 ? Also ist Pharao H4428 , der König H4714 in Ägypten H982 , allen, die sich auf ihn verlassen .
  22 H559 Ob ihr aber wolltet zu mir sagen H982 : Wir verlassen H3068 uns auf den HERRN H430 , unsern Gott H1116 ! ist’s denn nicht der, dessen Höhen H4196 und Altäre H2396 Hiskia H5493 hat abgetan H559 und gesagt H3063 zu Juda H3389 und zu Jerusalem H6440 : Vor H4196 diesem Altar H3389 , der zu Jerusalem H7812 ist, sollt ihr anbeten ?
  23 H6148 Wohlan, nimm eine Wette H113 an mit meinem Herrn H4428 , dem König H804 von Assyrien H505 : ich will dir H5483 Rosse H5414 geben H3201 , ob du könnest H7392 Reiter H5414 dazu geben .
  24 H7725 Wie willst du denn bleiben H6440 vor H6996 der geringsten H6346 Hauptleute H259 einem H113 von meines Herrn H5650 Untertanen H982 ? Und du verläßt H4714 dich auf Ägypten H7393 um der Wagen H6571 und Reiter willen.
  25 H1107 Meinst du aber, ich sei ohne H3068 den HERRN H5927 heraufgezogen H4725 , daß ich diese Stätte H7843 verderbe H3068 ? Der HERR H559 hat mich’s geheißen H5927 : Ziehe hinauf H776 in dies Land H7843 und verderbe es!
  26 H559 Da sprach H471 Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H2518 Hilkias H7644 , und Sebna H3098 und Joah H7262 zum Erzschenken H1696 : Rede H5650 mit deinen Knechten H762 auf syrisch H8085 , denn wir verstehen’s H1696 ; und rede H3066 nicht mit uns auf jüdisch H241 vor den Ohren H5971 des Volks H2346 , das auf der Mauer ist.
  27 H7262 Aber der Erzschenke H559 sprach H113 zu ihnen: Hat mich denn mein Herr H113 zu deinem Herrn H7971 oder zu dir gesandt H1697 , daß ich solche Worte H1696 rede H582 ? und nicht vielmehr zu den Männern H2346 , die auf der Mauer H3427 sitzen H2755 H6675 , daß sie mit euch ihren eigenen Mist H398 fressen H7272 H4325 H7890 und ihren Harn H8354 saufen ?
  28 H5975 Also stand H7262 der Erzschenke H5975 auf H7121 und redete H1419 mit lauter H6963 Stimme H3066 auf jüdisch H559 H1696 und sprach H8085 : Höret H1697 das Wort H1419 des großen H4428 Königs H4428 , des Königs H804 von Assyrien!
  29 H559 So spricht H4428 der König H2396 : Laßt euch Hiskia H5377 nicht betrügen H3201 ; denn er vermag H5337 euch nicht zu erretten H3027 von meiner Hand .
  30 H2396 Und laßt euch Hiskia H982 nicht vertrösten H3068 auf den HERRN H559 , daß er sagt H3068 : Der HERR H5337 wird H5337 uns erretten H5892 , und diese Stadt H3027 wird nicht in die Hände H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien H5414 gegeben werden.
  31 H8085 Gehorchet H2396 Hiskia H559 nicht! Denn so spricht H4428 der König H804 von Assyrien H6213 : Nehmet H1293 an meine Gnade H3318 und kommet H3318 zu mir heraus H376 , so soll jedermann H1612 von seinem Weinstock H8384 und seinem Feigenbaum H398 essen H953 und von seinem Brunnen H8354 trinken,
  32 H935 bis ich komme H3947 und hole H776 euch in ein Land H776 , das eurem Lande H776 gleich ist, darin H1715 Korn H8492 , Most H3899 , Brot H3754 , Weinberge H3323 H2132 , Ölbäume H1706 und Honig H2421 sind; so werdet ihr leben H4191 bleiben und nicht sterben H8085 . Gehorchet H2396 Hiskia H5496 nicht; denn er verführt H559 euch, daß er spricht H3068 : Der HERR H5337 wird uns erretten .
  33 H430 Haben auch die Götter H1471 der Heiden H376 ein jeglicher H776 sein Land H5337 errettet H3027 von der Hand H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien ?
  34 H430 Wo sind die Götter H2574 zu Hamath H774 und Arpad H430 ? Wo sind die Götter H5617 zu Sepharvaim H2012 , Hena H5755 und Iwwa H8111 ? Haben sie auch Samaria H5337 errettet H3027 von meiner Hand ?
  35 H430 Wo ist ein Gott H776 unter aller Lande H776 Göttern, die ihr Land H3027 haben von meiner Hand H5337 errettet H3068 , daß der HERR H3389 sollte Jerusalem H3027 von meiner Hand H5337 erretten ?
  36 H5971 Das Volk H2790 aber schwieg H6030 still und antwortete H1697 ihm nichts H4428 ; denn der König H4687 hatte geboten H559 und gesagt H6030 : Antwortet ihm nichts.
  37 H935 Da kamen H471 Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H2518 Hilkias H1004 , der Hofmeister H7644 , und Sebna H5608 , der Schreiber H3098 , und Joah H1121 , der Sohn H623 Asaphs H2142 , der Kanzler H2396 , zu Hiskia H7167 mit zerrissenen H899 Kleidern H5046 und sagten H5046 ihm an H1697 die Worte H7262 des Erzschenken .
ELB1871(i) 1 Und es geschah im dritten Jahre Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs von Israel, da wurde Hiskia König, der Sohn Ahas', des Königs von Juda. 2 25 Jahre war er alt, als er König wurde, und er regierte 29 Jahre zu Jerusalem; und der Name seiner Mutter war Abi, die Tochter Sekarjas. 3 Und er tat, was recht war in den Augen Jehovas, nach allem, was sein Vater David getan hatte. 4 Er tat die Höhen hinweg und zerschlug die Bildsäulen, und rottete die Aschera aus, und zertrümmerte die eherne Schlange, welche Mose gemacht hatte; denn bis zu jenen Tagen hatten die Kinder Israel ihr geräuchert, und man nannte sie Nechustan. 5 Er vertraute auf Jehova, den Gott Israels; und nach ihm ist seinesgleichen nicht gewesen unter allen Königen von Juda, noch unter denen, die vor ihm waren. 6 Und er hing Jehova an, er wich nicht von ihm ab; und er beobachtete seine Gebote, die Jehova dem Mose geboten hatte. 7 Und Jehova war mit ihm; überall, wohin er zog, gelang es ihm. Und er empörte sich gegen den König von Assyrien und diente ihm nicht. 8 Er schlug die Philister bis Gasa und verheerte dessen Gebiet, vom Turme der Wächter an bis zu der festen Stadt. 9 Und es geschah im vierten Jahre des Königs Hiskia, das war das siebte Jahr Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs von Israel, da zog Salmaneser, der König von Assyrien, wider Samaria herauf und belagerte es. 10 Und er nahm es ein am Ende von drei Jahren; im sechsten Jahre Hiskias, das war das neunte Jahr Hoseas, des Königs von Israel, wurde Samaria eingenommen. 11 Und der König von Assyrien führte Israel nach Assyrien hinweg; und er versetzte sie nach Halach und an den Habor, den Strom Gosans, und in die Städte Mediens: 12 darum daß sie auf die Stimme Jehovas, ihres Gottes, nicht gehört, und seinen Bund übertreten hatten - alles, was Mose, der Knecht Jehovas, geboten hat - und weil sie nicht gehört und es nicht getan hatten. 13 Und im vierzehnten Jahre des Königs Hiskia zog Sanherib, der König von Assyrien, herauf wider alle festen Städte Judas und nahm sie ein. 14 Da sandte Hiskia, der König von Juda, an den König von Assyrien nach Lachis und ließ ihm sagen: Ich habe gefehlt, kehre um von mir; was du mir auferlegen wirst, will ich tragen. Und der König von Assyrien legte Hiskia, dem König von Juda, dreihundert Talente Silber und dreißig Talente Gold auf. 15 Und Hiskia gab alles Silber, das in dem Hause Jehovas und in den Schätzen des Königshauses sich vorfand. 16 Zu selbiger Zeit brach Hiskia von den Türflügeln des Tempels Jehovas und den Pfosten, die Hiskia, der König von Juda, überzogen hatte, das Gold ab und gab es dem König von Assyrien. 17 Aber der König von Assyrien sandte von Lachis aus den Tartan und den Rabsaris und den Rabsake mit einem großen Heere wider den König Hiskia nach Jerusalem. Und sie zogen herauf und kamen nach Jerusalem: sie zogen herauf und kamen und hielten an der Wasserleitung des oberen Teiches, welcher an der Straße des Walkerfeldes liegt. 18 Und sie riefen dem König. Da gingen zu ihnen hinaus Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, der über das Haus war, und Schebna, der Schreiber, und Joach, der Sohn Asaphs, der Geschichtsschreiber. 19 Und der Rabsake sprach zu ihnen: Saget doch zu Hiskia: So spricht der große König, der König von Assyrien: Was ist das für ein Vertrauen, womit du vertraust? 20 Du sagst - doch nur ein Wort der Lippen ist es: - Da ist Rat und Macht zum Kriege. Nun, auf wen vertraust du, daß du dich wider mich empört hast? 21 Nun, siehe, du vertraust auf jenen geknickten Rohrstab, auf Ägypten, der, wenn jemand sich auf ihn stützt, ihm in die Hand fährt und sie durchbohrt. So ist der Pharao, der König von Ägypten, allen, die auf ihn vertrauen. 22 Und wenn ihr zu mir sprechet: Auf Jehova, unseren Gott, vertrauen wir! - ist er es nicht, dessen Höhen und dessen Altäre Hiskia hinweggetan, da er zu Juda und zu Jerusalem gesagt hat: Vor diesem Altar sollt ihr anbeten in Jerusalem? - 23 Und nun, laß dich doch ein mit meinem Herrn, dem König von Assyrien: Ich will dir zweitausend Rosse geben, wenn du dir Reiter darauf setzen kannst. 24 Und wie wolltest du einen einzigen Befehlshaber von den geringsten Knechten meines Herrn zurücktreiben? Aber du vertraust auf Ägypten wegen Wagen und wegen Reiter. 25 Nun, bin ich etwa ohne Jehova wider diesen Ort heraufgezogen, um ihn zu verheeren? Jehova hat zu mir gesagt: Ziehe hinauf wider dieses Land und verheere es! 26 Und Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, und Schebna und Joach sprachen zu dem Rabsake: Rede doch zu deinen Knechten auf aramäisch, denn wir verstehen es; und rede nicht auf jüdisch mit uns vor den Ohren des Volkes, das auf der Mauer ist. 27 Und der Rabsake sprach zu ihnen: Hat mich mein Herr zu deinem Herrn und zu dir gesandt, um diese Worte zu reden? Nicht zu den Männern, die auf der Mauer sitzen, um mit euch ihren Kot zu essen und ihren Harn zu trinken? 28 Und der Rabsake stand und rief mit lauter Stimme auf jüdisch und redete und sprach: Höret das Wort des großen Königs, des Königs von Assyrien! 29 So spricht der König: Daß euch Hiskia nicht täusche; denn er wird euch nicht von seiner Hand zu erretten vermögen. 30 Und das Hiskia euch nicht auf Jehova vertröste, indem er spricht: Jehova wird uns gewißlich erretten, und diese Stadt wird nicht in die Hand des Königs von Assyrien gegeben werden. 31 Höret nicht auf Hiskia! denn also spricht der König von Assyrien: Machet Frieden mit mir und kommet zu mir heraus, so sollt ihr ein jeder von seinem Weinstock und ein jeder von seinem Feigenbaum essen, und ein jeder das Wasser seines Brunnens trinken, 32 bis ich komme und euch in ein Land hole wie euer Land, ein Land von Korn und Most, ein Land von Brot und Weinbergen, ein Land von Olivenbäumen und Honig, daß ihr lebet und nicht sterbet. Aber höret nicht auf Hiskia! denn er verführt euch, indem er spricht: Jehova wird uns erretten! 33 Haben denn irgend die Götter der Nationen ein jeder sein Land von der Hand des Königs von Assyrien errettet? 34 Wo sind die Götter von Hamath und Arpad? Wo die Götter von Sepharwaim, von Hena und Iwa? Haben sie Samaria von meiner Hand errettet? 35 Welche sind es unter allen Göttern der Länder, die ihr Land von meiner Hand errettet haben, daß Jehova Jerusalem von meiner Hand erretten sollte? 36 Und das Volk schwieg still und antwortete ihm kein Wort; denn es war das Gebot des Königs, der gesagt hatte: Ihr sollt nicht antworten! - 37 Und Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, der über das Haus war, und Schebna, der Schreiber, und Joach, der Sohn Asaphs, der Geschichtsschreiber, kamen zu Hiskia mit zerrissenen Kleidern und berichteten ihm die Worte des Rabsake.
ELB1905(i) 1 Und [2.Chr 29] es geschah im dritten Jahre Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs von Israel, da wurde Hiskia König, der Sohn Ahas', des Königs von Juda. 2 Fünfundzwanzig Jahre war er alt, als er König wurde, und er regierte neunundzwanzig Jahre zu Jerusalem; und der Name seiner Mutter war Abi, die Tochter Sekarjas. 3 Und er tat, was recht war in den Augen Jahwes, nach allem, was sein Vater David getan hatte. 4 Er tat die Höhen hinweg und zerschlug die Bildsäulen, und rottete die Aschera aus, und zertrümmerte die eherne Schlange, welche Mose gemacht hatte; denn bis zu jenen Tagen hatten die Kinder Israel ihr geräuchert, und man nannte sie Nechustan. dh. Ehernes 5 Er vertraute auf Jahwe, den Gott Israels; und nach ihm ist seinesgleichen nicht gewesen unter allen Königen von Juda, noch unter denen, die vor ihm waren. 6 Und er hing Jahwe an, er wich nicht von ihm ab; Eig. von hinter ihm her und er beobachtete seine Gebote, die Jahwe dem Mose geboten hatte. 7 Und Jahwe war mit ihm; überall, wohin er zog, gelang es ihm. Und er empörte sich gegen den König von Assyrien und diente ihm nicht. 8 Er schlug die Philister bis Gasa und verheerte dessen Gebiet, vom Turme der Wächter an bis zu der festen Stadt. 9 Und es geschah im vierten Jahre des Königs Hiskia, das war das siebte Jahr Hoseas, des Sohnes Elas, des Königs von Israel, da zog Salmaneser, der König von Assyrien, wider Samaria herauf und belagerte es. 10 Und er nahm es ein am Ende von drei Jahren; im sechsten Jahre Hiskias, das war das neunte Jahr Hoseas, des Königs von Israel, wurde Samaria eingenommen. 11 Und der König von Assyrien führte Israel nach Assyrien hinweg; und er versetzte sie nach Halach und an den Habor, den Strom Gosans, und in die Städte Mediens: 12 darum daß sie auf die Stimme Jahwes, ihres Gottes, nicht gehört, und seinen Bund übertreten hatten alles, was Mose, der Knecht Jahwes, geboten hat und weil sie nicht gehört und es nicht getan hatten. 13 Und [2.Chr 32]; [Jes 36] im vierzehnten Jahre des Königs Hiskia zog Sanherib, der König von Assyrien, herauf wider alle festen Städte Judas und nahm sie ein. 14 Da sandte Hiskia, der König von Juda, an den König von Assyrien nach Lachis und ließ ihm sagen: Ich habe gefehlt, kehre um von mir; was du mir auferlegen wirst, will ich tragen.

Und sie zogen herauf und kamen nach Jerusalem: sie zogen herauf und kamen und hielten an der Wasserleitung des oberen Teiches, welcher O. welche an der Straße des Walkerfeldes liegt. 18 Und sie riefen dem König. Da gingen zu ihnen hinaus Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, der über das Haus war, und Schebna, der Schreiber, und Joach, der Sohn Asaphs, der Geschichtsschreiber. S. die Anm. zu [2.Sam 8,16] 19 Und der Rabsake sprach zu ihnen: Saget doch zu Hiskia: So spricht der große König, der König von Assyrien: Was ist das für ein Vertrauen, womit du vertraust? 20 Du sagst doch nur ein Wort der Lippen ist es: Da ist Rat und Macht zum Kriege.

Aber du vertraust auf Ägypten der Wagen und Reiter wegen. 25 Nun, bin ich etwa ohne Jahwe wider diesen Ort heraufgezogen, um ihn zu verheeren? Jahwe hat zu mir gesagt: Ziehe hinauf wider dieses Land und verheere es! 26 Und Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, und Schebna und Joach sprachen zu dem Rabsake: Rede doch zu deinen Knechten auf aramäisch, denn wir verstehen es; und rede nicht auf jüdisch mit uns vor den Ohren des Volkes, das auf der Mauer ist. 27 Und der Rabsake sprach zu ihnen: Hat mein Herr mich zu deinem Herrn und zu dir gesandt, um diese Worte zu reden?

Aber höret nicht auf Hiskia! Denn er verführt euch, Und.: wenn er euch verführt indem er spricht: Jahwe wird uns erretten! 33 Haben denn irgend die Götter der Nationen ein jeder sein Land von der Hand des Königs von Assyrien errettet? 34 Wo sind die Götter von Hamath und Arpad? Wo die Götter von Sepharwaim, von Hena und Iwa? Haben sie dh. die Götter von Samaria Samaria von meiner Hand errettet? 35 Welche sind es unter allen Göttern der Länder, die ihr Land von meiner Hand errettet haben, daß Jahwe Jerusalem von meiner Hand erretten sollte? 36 Und das Volk schwieg still und antwortete ihm kein Wort; denn es war das Gebot des Königs, der gesagt hatte: Ihr sollt nicht antworten! 37 Und Eljakim, der Sohn Hilkijas, der über das Haus war, und Schebna, der Schreiber, und Joach, der Sohn Asaphs, der Geschichtsschreiber, kamen zu Hiskia mit zerrissenen Kleidern und berichteten ihm die Worte des Rabsake.

  5 H982 Er vertraute H6440 auf H3068 Jehova H430 , den Gott H3478 Israels H310 ; und nach H4428 ihm ist seinesgleichen nicht gewesen unter allen Königen H3063 von Juda, noch unter denen, die vor ihm waren.
  6 H310 Und H5493 er H1692 hing H3068 Jehova H4687 an, er wich nicht von ihm ab; und er beobachtete seine Gebote H8104 , die H3068 Jehova H4872 dem Mose H6680 geboten hatte .
  7 H3068 Und Jehova H4428 war mit ihm; überall, wohin er zog, gelang es ihm. Und er empörte sich gegen den König H3318 von H804 Assyrien H5647 und diente ihm nicht.
  8 H5221 Er schlug H6430 die Philister H5804 bis Gasa H1366 und verheerte dessen Gebiet H5341 , vom Turme der Wächter H4013 an bis zu der festen H5892 Stadt .
  9 H7243 Und es geschah im vierten H8141 Jahre H4428 des Königs H2396 Hiskia H8141 , das war das siebte Jahr H1954 Hoseas H1121 , des Sohnes H425 Elas H4428 , des Königs H3478 von Israel H7637 , da H5927 zog H4428 Salmaneser, der König H804 von Assyrien H8111 , wider Samaria H6696 herauf und belagerte es.
  10 H8141 Und H3920 er nahm es H7097 ein am Ende H7969 von drei H8337 Jahren; im sechsten H8141 Jahre H2396 Hiskias H8141 , das war das neunte Jahr H1954 Hoseas H4428 , des Königs H3478 von Israel H8111 , wurde Samaria eingenommen.
  11 H4428 Und der König H804 von Assyrien H1540 führte H3478 Israel H804 nach Assyrien H5148 hinweg; und er versetzte sie H2249 nach Halach und an den Habor H5104 , den Strom H5892 Gosans, und in die Städte Mediens:
  12 H6680 darum daß sie H6963 auf die Stimme H3068 Jehovas H430 , ihres Gottes H8085 , nicht gehört H1285 , und seinen Bund H5674 übertreten H4872 hatten-alles, was Mose H5650 , der Knecht H3068 Jehovas H8085 , geboten hat H6213 -und weil sie nicht gehört und es nicht getan hatten.
  13 H8141 Und im vierzehnten Jahre H4428 des Königs H2396 Hiskia H5927 zog H5576 Sanherib H4428 , der König H804 von Assyrien H1219 , herauf wider alle festen H6240 Städte H3063 Judas H8610 und nahm sie ein.
  14 H2396 Da sandte Hiskia H4428 , der König H3063 von Juda H4428 , an den König H804 von Assyrien H3923 nach Lachis H7760 und H7971 ließ H559 ihm sagen H5375 : Ich habe H7725 gefehlt, kehre um H4428 von mir; was du mir auferlegen wirst, will ich tragen. Und der König H804 von Assyrien H5414 legte H2396 Hiskia H4428 , dem König H3063 von Juda H7969 -H3967 , dreihundert H3701 Talente Silber H7970 und dreißig H2091 Talente Gold auf.
  15 H2396 Und Hiskia H5414 gab H3701 alles Silber H1004 , das sich in dem Hause H3068 Jehovas H214 und in den Schätzen H4428 des Königshauses vorfand.
  16 H6256 Zu selbiger Zeit H2396 brach Hiskia H1964 von den Türflügeln des Tempels H3068 Jehovas H2396 und den Pfosten, die Hiskia H4428 , der König H3063 von Juda H6823 , überzogen H7112 hatte, das Gold ab H5414 und gab H4428 es dem König H804 von Assyrien .
  17 H5975 Aber H4428 der König H804 von Assyrien H3923 sandte von Lachis H4428 aus den Tartan und den Rabsaris und den Rabsake mit einem großen Heere wider den König H2396 Hiskia H3389 nach Jerusalem H7971 . Und sie H5927 zogen herauf H935 und kamen H3389 nach Jerusalem H5927 : sie zogen herauf H935 und kamen H8585 und hielten an der Wasserleitung H5945 des oberen H1295 Teiches H4546 , welcher an der Straße des Walkerfeldes liegt.
  18 H7121 Und sie riefen H4428 dem König H3318 . Da gingen H2142 zu ihnen H471 hinaus Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H1004 Hilkijas, der über das Haus H5608 war, und Schebna, der Schreiber H1121 , und Joach, der Sohn H623 Asaphs, der Geschichtsschreiber.
  19 H559 Und der Rabsake sprach H2396 zu ihnen: Saget doch zu Hiskia H559 : So spricht H1419 der große H4428 König H4428 , der König H804 von Assyrien H559 : Was ist das für ein Vertrauen, womit du vertraust?
  20 H1697 Du sagst-doch nur ein Wort H8193 der Lippen H6098 ist es - -: Da ist Rat H1369 und Macht H4421 zum Kriege H982 . Nun, auf wen vertraust du, daß du dich H559 wider mich empört hast ?
  21 H982 Nun, siehe, du H5564 vertraust auf H4938 jenen geknickten Rohrstab H982 , auf H4714 Ägypten H376 , der, wenn jemand H3709 sich auf ihn stützt, ihm in die Hand H935 fährt und sie H5344 durchbohrt H6547 . So ist der Pharao H4428 , der König H4714 von Ägypten, allen, die auf ihn vertrauen.
  22 H6440 Und wenn ihr zu mir H982 sprechet: Auf H3068 Jehova H430 , unseren Gott H5493 , vertrauen wir! ist er H1116 es nicht, dessen Höhen H4196 und dessen Altäre H2396 Hiskia H559 hinweggetan, da er H3063 zu Juda H3389 und zu Jerusalem H559 gesagt H4196 hat: Vor diesem Altar H7812 sollt ihr anbeten H3389 in Jerusalem ? -
  23 H6148 Und H113 nun, laß dich doch ein mit meinem Herrn H4428 , dem König H804 von Assyrien H505 : Ich will dir zweitausend H5483 Rosse H5414 geben H5414 , wenn du H7392 dir Reiter H3201 darauf setzen kannst .
  24 H7725 Und wie wolltest du H259 einen H6996 einzigen Befehlshaber von den geringsten H5650 Knechten H113 meines Herrn H982 zurücktreiben? Aber du H6440 vertraust auf H4714 Ägypten H7393 der Wagen H6571 und Reiter wegen.
  25 H1107 Nun, bin ich etwa ohne H3068 Jehova H4725 wider diesen Ort H3068 heraufgezogen, um ihn zu verheeren? Jehova H559 hat zu mir gesagt H5927 : Ziehe H5927 hinauf H776 wider dieses Land H7843 und verheere es!
  26 H471 Und Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H559 Hilkijas, und Schebna und Joach sprachen H1696 zu dem Rabsake: Rede H5650 doch zu deinen Knechten H3066 auf aramäisch, denn wir verstehen es; und rede nicht auf jüdisch H8085 mit uns H241 vor den Ohren H5971 des Volkes H2346 , das auf der Mauer H1696 ist .
  27 H559 Und der Rabsake sprach H113 zu ihnen: Hat mein Herr H113 mich zu deinem Herrn H7971 und zu dir gesandt H1697 , um H1696 diese Worte zu reden H582 ? Nicht zu den Männern H3427 , die H2346 auf der Mauer H398 sitzen, um mit euch ihren Kot zu essen H8354 und ihren Harn zu trinken ?
  28 H5975 Und der Rabsake stand H7121 und rief H1419 mit lauter H6963 Stimme H3066 auf jüdisch H1696 und redete H559 und sprach H8085 : Höret H1697 das Wort H1419 des großen H4428 Königs H4428 , des Königs H804 von Assyrien!
  29 H4428 So spricht der König H2396 : Daß Hiskia H5377 euch H5337 nicht H559 täusche; denn er H3027 wird euch nicht von seiner Hand H3201 zu erretten vermögen .
  30 H2396 Und das Hiskia H5337 euch nicht H982 auf H3068 Jehova H559 vertröste, indem er H3068 spricht: Jehova H5892 wird uns gewißlich erretten, und diese Stadt H5337 wird nicht H3027 in die Hand H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien H5414 gegeben werden.
  31 H8085 Höret H2396 nicht auf Hiskia H559 ! Denn also spricht H4428 der König H3318 von H804 Assyrien H6213 : Machet Frieden mit mir und kommet zu H376 mir heraus, so sollt ihr ein H1612 jeder von seinem Weinstock H376 und ein H8384 jeder von seinem Feigenbaum H398 essen H376 , und ein H4325 jeder das Wasser H8354 seines Brunnens trinken,
  32 H776 bis ich komme und euch in ein Land H3947 hole H776 wie euer Land H776 , ein Land H1715 von Korn H8492 und Most H776 , ein Land H3899 von Brot H3754 und Weinbergen H776 , ein Land H1706 von Olivenbäumen und Honig H5337 , daß ihr lebet und nicht H4191 sterbet H2396 . Aber höret nicht auf Hiskia H935 ! Denn er H2421 verführt euch, indem er H559 spricht H3068 : Jehova H8085 wird uns erretten!
  33 H430 Haben denn irgend die Götter H376 der Nationen ein H776 jeder sein Land H3027 von der Hand H4428 des Königs H804 von Assyrien H5337 errettet ?
  34 H430 Wo sind die Götter H2574 von Hamath H774 und Arpad H430 ? Wo die Götter H2012 von Sepharwaim, von Hena H5755 und Iwa H8111 ? Haben sie Samaria H3027 von meiner Hand H5337 errettet ?
  35 H430 Welche sind es unter allen Göttern H776 der Länder H776 , die ihr Land H3027 von meiner Hand H5337 errettet H3068 haben, daß Jehova H3389 Jerusalem H3027 von meiner Hand H5337 erretten sollte?
  36 H5971 Und das Volk H2790 schwieg H6030 still und antwortete H1697 ihm kein Wort H4687 ; denn es war das Gebot H4428 des Königs H559 , der gesagt H6030 hatte: Ihr sollt nicht antworten! -
  37 H471 Und Eljakim H1121 , der Sohn H1697 Hilkijas, der über das H1004 Haus H5608 war, und Schebna, der Schreiber H1121 , und Joach, der Sohn H623 Asaphs H935 , der Geschichtsschreiber, kamen H2396 zu Hiskia H7167 mit zerrissenen H899 Kleidern und berichteten ihm die Worte des Rabsake.
DSV(i) 1 Het geschiedde nu in het derde jaar van Hosea, den zoon van Ela, den koning van Israël, dat Hizkia koning werd, de zoon van Achaz, koning van Juda. 2 Vijf en twintig jaren was hij oud, toen hij koning werd, en hij regeerde negen en twintig jaren te Jeruzalem, en de naam zijner moeder was Abi, een dochter van Zacharia. 3 En hij deed dat recht was in de ogen des HEEREN, naar alles, wat zijn vader David gedaan had. 4 Hij nam de hoogten weg, en brak de opgerichte beelden, en roeide de bossen uit; en hij verbrijzelde de koperen slang, die Mozes gemaakt had, omdat de kinderen Israëls tot die dagen toe haar gerookt hadden; en hij noemde haar Nehustan. 5 Hij betrouwde op den HEERE, den God Israëls, zodat na hem zijns gelijke niet was onder alle koningen van Juda, noch die voor hem geweest waren. 6 Want hij kleefde den HEERE aan; hij week niet van Hem na te volgen, en hij hield Zijn geboden, die de HEERE aan Mozes geboden had. 7 Zo was de HEERE met hem; overal, waar hij henen uittrok, handelde hij kloekelijk; daartoe viel hij af van den koning van Assyrië, dat hij hem niet diende. 8 Hij sloeg de Filistijnen tot Gaza toe, en haar landpalen, van den wachttoren af tot de vaste steden toe. 9 Het geschiedde nu in het vierde jaar van den koning Hizkia (hetwelk was het zevende jaar van Hosea, den zoon van Ela, den koning van Israël) dat Salmaneser, de koning van Assyrië, opkwam tegen Samaria, en haar belegerde. 10 En zij namen haar in ten einde van drie jaren, in het zesde jaar van Hizkia; het was het negende jaar van Hosea, den koning van Israël, als Samaria ingenomen werd. 11 En de koning van Assyrië voerde Israël weg naar Assyrië, en deed hen leiden in Halah, en in Habor, bij de rivier Gozan, en in de steden der Meden. 12 Daarom dat zij de stem des HEEREN, huns Gods, niet waren gehoorzaam geweest, maar Zijn verbond overtreden hadden; en al wat Mozes, de knecht des HEEREN, geboden had, dat hadden zij niet gehoord, noch gedaan. 13 Maar in het veertiende jaar van den koning Hizkia kwam Sanherib, de koning van Assyrië, op tegen alle vaste steden van Juda, en nam ze in. 14 Toen zond Hizkia, de koning van Juda, tot den koning van Assyrië, naar Lachis, zeggende: Ik heb gezondigd, keer af van mij, wat gij mij opleggen zult, zal ik dragen. Toen leide de koning van Assyrië Hizkia, den koning van Juda, driehonderd talenten zilvers, en dertig talenten gouds op. 15 Alzo gaf Hizkia al het zilver, dat gevonden werd in het huis des HEEREN, en in de schatten van het huis des konings. 16 Te dier tijd sneed Hizkia het goud af van de deuren van den tempel des HEEREN, en van de posten, die Hizkia, de koning van Juda, had laten overtrekken, en gaf dat aan de koning van Assyrië. 17 Evenwel zond de koning van Assyrië Tartan, en Rabsaris, en Rabsake, van Lachis tot den koning Hizkia, met een zwaar heir naar Jeruzalem; en zij togen op, en kwamen naar Jeruzalem. En als zij optogen en gekomen waren, bleven zij staan bij den watergang des oppersten vijvers, welke is bij den hogen weg van het veld des vollers. 18 En zij riepen tot den koning; zo ging tot hen uit Eljakim, de zoon van Hilkia, de hofmeester, en Sebna, de schrijver, en Joah, de zoon van Asaf, de kanselier. 19 En Rabsake zeide tot hen: Zegt nu tot Hizkia: Zo zegt de grote koning, de koning van Assyrië: Wat vertrouwen is dit, waarmede gij vertrouwt? 20 Gij zegt (doch het is een woord der lippen): Er is raad en macht tot den oorlog; op wien vertrouwt gij nu, dat gij tegen mij rebelleert? 21 Zie nu, vertrouwt gij u op dien gebroken rietstaf, op Egypte, op denwelken zo iemand leunt, zo zal hij in zijn hand gaan, en die doorboren; alzo is Farao, de koning van Egypte, al dengenen, die op hem vertrouwen. 22 Maar zo gij tot mij zegt: Wij vertrouwen op den HEERE, onzen God; is Hij die niet, Wiens hoogten en Wiens altaren Hizkia weggenomen heeft, en tot Juda en tot Jeruzalem gezegd heeft: Voor dit altaar zult gij u buigen te Jeruzalem? 23 Nu dan, wed toch met mijn heer, den koning van Assyrië; en ik zal u twee duizend paarden geven, zo gij voor u de ruiters daarop zult kunnen geven. 24 Hoe zoudt gij dan het aangezicht van een enigen vorst van de geringste knechten mijns heren afkeren? Maar gij vertrouwt op Egypte, om de wagenen en om de ruiteren. 25 Nu, ben ik zonder den HEERE opgetogen tegen deze plaats, om die te verderven? De HEERE heeft tot mij gezegd: Trek op tegen dat land, en verderf het. 26 Toen zeide Eljakim, de zoon van Hilkia, en Sebna, en Joah tot Rabsake: Spreek toch tot uw knechten in het Syrisch, want wij verstaan het wel; en spreek met ons niet in het Joods, voor de oren des volks, dat op den muur is. 27 Maar Rabsake zeide tot hen: Heeft mijn heer mij tot uw heer en tot u gezonden, om deze woorden te spreken? Is het niet tot de mannen, die op den muur zitten, dat zij met ulieden hun drek eten, en hun water drinken zullen? 28 Alzo stond Rabsake, en riep met luider stem in het Joods; en hij sprak en zeide: Hoort het woord des groten konings, des konings van Assyrië! 29 Zo zegt de koning: Dat Hizkia u niet bedriege: want hij zal u niet kunnen redden uit zijn hand. 30 Daartoe dat Hizkia u niet doe vertrouwen op den HEERE, zeggende: De HEERE zal ons zekerlijk redden, en deze stad zal niet in de hand van den koning van Assyrië gegeven worden. 31 Hoort naar Hizkia niet; want zo zegt de koning van Assyrië: Handelt met mij door een geschenk, en komt tot mij uit, en eet, een ieder van zijn wijnstok, en een ieder van zijn vijgeboom; en drinkt een ieder het water zijns bornputs; 32 Totdat ik kom, en u haal in een land, als ulieder land, een land van koren en van most, een land van brood en van wijngaarden, een land van olijven, van olie en van honig; zo zult gij leven en niet sterven; en hoort niet naar Hizkia, want hij hitst u op, zeggende: De HEERE zal ons redden. 33 Hebben de goden der volken, ieder zijn land, enigszins gered uit de hand van den koning van Assyrië? 34 Waar zijn de goden van Hamath, en van Arpad? Waar zijn de goden van Sefarvaim, Hena en Ivva? Ja, hebben zij Samaria uit mijn hand gered? 35 Welke zijn ze onder alle goden der landen, die hun land uit mijn hand gered hebben, dat de HEERE Jeruzalem uit mijn hand redden zou? 36 Doch het volk zweeg stil en antwoordde hem niet een woord; want het gebod des konings was, zeggende: Gij zult hem niet antwoorden. 37 Toen kwam Eljakim, de zoon van Hilkia, de hofmeester, en Sebna, de schrijver, en Joah, de zoon van Asaf, de kanselier, tot Hizkia, met gescheurde klederen; en zij gaven hem de woorden van Rabsake te kennen.

  1 H1961 H8799 Het geschiedde H7969 nu in het derde H8141 jaar H1954 van Hosea H1121 , den zoon H425 van Ela H4428 , den koning H3478 van Israel H2396 , [dat] Hizkia H4427 H8804 koning werd H1121 , de zoon H271 van Achaz H4428 , koning H3063 van Juda.
  2 H2568 Vijf H6242 en twintig H8141 jaren H1961 H8804 was H1121 hij oud H4427 H8800 , toen hij koning werd H4427 H8804 , en hij regeerde H8672 negen H6242 en twintig H8141 jaren H3389 te Jeruzalem H8034 , en de naam H517 zijner moeder H21 was Abi H1323 , een dochter H2148 van Zacharia.
  3 H6213 H8799 En hij deed H3477 dat recht H5869 was in de ogen H3068 des HEEREN H3605 , naar alles H834 , wat H1 zijn vader H1732 David H6213 H8804 gedaan had.
  4 H1931 Hij H5493 H0 nam H1116 de hoogten H5493 H8689 weg H7665 H8765 , en brak H4676 de opgerichte beelden H3772 H0 , en roeide H842 de bossen H3772 H8804 uit H3807 H8765 ; en hij verbrijzelde H5178 de koperen H5175 slang H834 , die H4872 Mozes H6213 H8804 gemaakt had H3588 , omdat H1121 de kinderen H3478 Israels H5704 tot H1992 die H3117 dagen H1961 H8804 H6999 H8764 toe haar gerookt hadden H7121 H8799 ; en hij noemde H5180 haar Nehustan.
  5 H982 H8804 Hij betrouwde H3068 op den HEERE H430 , den God H3478 Israels H310 , zodat na H3644 hem zijns gelijke H3808 niet H1961 H8804 was H3605 onder alle H4428 koningen H3063 van Juda H834 , noch die H6440 voor H1961 H8804 hem geweest waren.
  6 H1692 H0 Want hij kleefde H3068 den HEERE H1692 H8799 aan H5493 H8804 ; hij week H3808 niet H4480 van H310 Hem na te volgen H8104 H8799 , en hij hield H4687 Zijn geboden H834 , die H3068 de HEERE H4872 aan Mozes H6680 H8765 geboden had.
  7 H1961 H8804 Zo was H3068 de HEERE H5973 met H3605 hem; overal H834 , waar H3318 H8799 hij henen uittrok H7919 H8686 , handelde hij kloekelijk H4775 H8799 ; daartoe viel hij af H4428 van den koning H804 van Assyrie H3808 , dat hij hem niet H5647 H8804 diende.
  8 H1931 Hij H5221 H8689 sloeg H6430 de Filistijnen H5704 tot H5804 Gaza H1366 toe, en haar landpalen H4480 , van H4026 H5341 H8802 den wachttoren H5704 af tot H4013 de vaste H5892 steden toe.
  9 H1961 H8799 Het geschiedde H7243 nu in het vierde H8141 jaar H4428 van den koning H2396 Hizkia H1931 (hetwelk H7637 was het zevende H8141 jaar H1954 van Hosea H1121 , den zoon H425 van Ela H4428 , den koning H3478 van Israel H8022 ) dat Salmaneser H4428 , de koning H804 van Assyrie H5927 H8804 , opkwam H5921 tegen H8111 Samaria H6696 H8799 H5921 , en haar belegerde.
  10 H3920 H8799 En zij namen haar in H4480 ten H7097 einde H7969 van drie H8141 jaren H8337 , in het zesde H8141 jaar H2396 van Hizkia H1931 ; het H8672 was het negende H8141 jaar H1954 van Hosea H4428 , den koning H3478 van Israel H8111 , als Samaria H3920 H8738 ingenomen werd.
  11 H4428 En de koning H804 van Assyrie H1540 H0 voerde H3478 Israel H1540 H8686 weg H804 naar Assyrie H5148 H8686 , en deed hen leiden H2477 in Halah H2249 , en in Habor H5104 , bij de rivier H1470 Gozan H5892 , en in de steden H4074 der Meden.
  12 H5921 H834 Daarom H6963 dat zij de stem H3068 des HEEREN H430 , huns Gods H3808 , niet H8085 H8804 waren gehoorzaam geweest H1285 , maar Zijn verbond H5674 H8799 overtreden hadden H3605 ; [en] al H834 wat H4872 Mozes H5650 , de knecht H3068 des HEEREN H6680 H8765 , geboden had H3808 , dat hadden zij niet H8085 H8804 gehoord H3808 , noch H6213 H8804 gedaan.
  13 H702 H6240 Maar in het veertiende H8141 jaar H4428 van den koning H2396 Hizkia H5927 H8804 kwam H5576 Sanherib H4428 , de koning H804 van Assyrie H5921 , op tegen H3605 alle H1219 H8803 vaste H5892 steden H3063 van Juda H8610 H8799 , en nam ze in.
  14 H7971 H8799 Toen zond H2396 Hizkia H4428 , de koning H3063 van Juda H413 , tot H4428 den koning H804 van Assyrie H3923 , naar Lachis H559 H8800 , zeggende H2398 H8804 : Ik heb gezondigd H7725 H8798 , keer af H4480 H5921 van H834 mij, wat H5414 H8799 H5921 gij mij opleggen zult H5375 H8799 , zal ik dragen H7760 H8799 H5921 . Toen leide H4428 de koning H804 van Assyrie H2396 Hizkia H4428 , den koning H3063 van Juda H7969 H3967 , driehonderd H3603 talenten H3701 zilvers H7970 , en dertig H3603 talenten H2091 gouds op.
  15 H5414 H8799 Alzo gaf H2396 Hizkia H3605 al H3701 het zilver H4672 H8737 , dat gevonden werd H1004 in het huis H3068 des HEEREN H214 , en in de schatten H1004 van het huis H4428 des konings.
  16 H1931 Te dier H6256 tijd H7112 H8765 sneed H2396 Hizkia H1817 [het] [goud] af van de deuren H1964 van den tempel H3068 des HEEREN H547 , en van de posten H834 , die H2396 Hizkia H4428 , de koning H3063 van Juda H6823 H8765 , had laten overtrekken H5414 H8799 , en gaf H4428 dat aan de koning H804 van Assyrie.
  17 H7971 H8799 Evenwel zond H4428 de koning H804 van Assyrie H8661 Tartan H7249 , en Rabsaris H7262 , en Rabsake H4480 , van H3923 Lachis H413 tot H4428 den koning H2396 Hizkia H3515 , met een zwaar H2426 heir H3389 naar Jeruzalem H5927 H8799 ; en zij togen op H935 H8799 , en kwamen H3389 naar Jeruzalem H5927 H8799 . En als zij optogen H935 H8799 en gekomen waren H5975 H8799 , bleven zij staan H8585 bij den watergang H5945 des oppersten H1295 vijvers H834 , welke H4546 is bij den hogen weg H7704 van het veld H3526 H8801 des vollers.
  18 H7121 H8799 En zij riepen H413 tot H4428 den koning H3318 H0 ; zo ging H413 tot H3318 H8799 hen uit H471 Eljakim H1121 , de zoon H2518 van Hilkia H834 H5921 H1004 , de hofmeester H7644 , en Sebna H5608 H8802 , de schrijver H3098 , en Joah H1121 , de zoon H623 van Asaf H2142 H8688 , de kanselier.
  19 H7262 En Rabsake H559 H8799 zeide H413 tot H559 H8798 hen: Zegt H4994 nu H413 tot H2396 Hizkia H3541 : Zo H559 H8804 zegt H1419 de grote H4428 koning H4428 , de koning H804 van Assyrie H4100 : Wat H986 vertrouwen H2088 is dit H834 , waarmede H982 H8804 gij vertrouwt?
  20 H559 H8804 Gij zegt H389 (doch H1697 het is een woord H8193 der lippen H6098 ): Er is raad H1369 en macht H4421 tot den oorlog H5921 ; op H4310 wien H982 H8804 vertrouwt gij H6258 nu H3588 , dat H4775 H8804 gij tegen mij rebelleert?
  21 H2009 Zie H6258 nu H982 H8804 , vertrouwt gij H5921 u op H2088 dien H7533 H8803 gebroken H4938 H7070 rietstaf H5921 , op H4714 Egypte H5921 , op H834 denwelken H376 zo iemand H5564 H8735 leunt H3709 , zo zal hij in zijn hand H935 H8804 gaan H5344 H8804 , en die doorboren H3651 ; alzo H6547 is Farao H4428 , de koning H4714 van Egypte H3605 , al H5921 dengenen, die op H982 H8802 hem vertrouwen.
  22 H3588 Maar H413 zo gij tot H559 H8799 mij zegt H982 H8804 : Wij vertrouwen H413 op H3068 den HEERE H430 , onzen God H1931 ; is Hij H3808 die niet H1116 , Wiens hoogten H4196 en Wiens altaren H2396 Hizkia H5493 H8689 weggenomen heeft H3063 , en tot Juda H3389 en tot Jeruzalem H559 H8799 gezegd heeft H6440 : Voor H2088 dit H4196 altaar H7812 H8691 zult gij u buigen H3389 te Jeruzalem?
  23 H6258 Nu dan H6148 H8690 , wed H4994 toch H113 met mijn heer H4428 , den koning H804 van Assyrie H505 ; en ik zal u twee duizend H5483 paarden H5414 H8799 geven H518 , zo H7392 H8802 gij voor u de ruiters H5921 daarop H3201 H8799 zult kunnen H5414 H8800 geven.
  24 H349 Hoe H6440 zoudt gij dan het aangezicht H259 van een enigen H6346 vorst H6996 van de geringste H5650 knechten H113 mijns heren H7725 H8686 afkeren H982 H8799 ? Maar gij vertrouwt H5921 op H4714 Egypte H7393 , om de wagenen H6571 en om de ruiteren.
  25 H6258 Nu H1107 , ben ik zonder H3068 den HEERE H5927 H8804 opgetogen H5921 tegen H2088 deze H4725 plaats H7843 H8687 , om die te verderven H3068 ? De HEERE H413 heeft tot H559 H8804 mij gezegd H5927 H8798 : Trek op H5921 tegen H2063 dat H776 land H7843 H8685 , en verderf het.
  26 H559 H8799 Toen zeide H471 Eljakim H1121 , de zoon H2518 van Hilkia H7644 , en Sebna H3098 , en Joah H413 tot H7262 Rabsake H1696 H8761 : Spreek H4994 toch H413 tot H5650 uw knechten H762 in het Syrisch H3588 , want H587 wij H8085 H8802 verstaan H1696 H8762 het [wel]; en spreek H5973 met H408 ons niet H3066 in het Joods H241 , voor de oren H5971 des volks H834 , dat H5921 op H2346 den muur is.
  27 H7262 Maar Rabsake H559 H8799 zeide H413 tot H113 hen: Heeft mijn heer H5921 mij tot H113 uw heer H413 en tot H7971 H8804 u gezonden H428 , om deze H1697 woorden H1696 H8763 te spreken H3808 ? Is het niet H5921 tot H582 de mannen H5921 , die op H2346 den muur H3427 H8802 zitten H5973 , dat zij met H6675 H8675 H2755 ulieden hun drek H398 H8800 eten H4325 H7272 H8675 H7890 , en hun water H8354 H8800 drinken zullen?
  28 H5975 H8799 Alzo stond H7262 Rabsake H7121 H8799 , en riep H1419 met luider H6963 stem H3066 in het Joods H1696 H8762 ; en hij sprak H559 H8799 en zeide H8085 H8798 : Hoort H1697 het woord H1419 des groten H4428 konings H4428 , des konings H804 van Assyrie!
  29 H3541 Zo H559 H8804 zegt H4428 de koning H2396 : Dat Hizkia H408 u niet H5377 H8686 bedriege H3588 : want H853 hij zal u H3808 niet H3201 H8799 kunnen H5337 H8687 redden H4480 uit H3027 zijn hand.
  30 H2396 Daartoe dat Hizkia H853 u H408 niet H982 H8686 doe vertrouwen H413 op H3068 den HEERE H559 H8800 , zeggende H3068 : De HEERE H5337 H8687 zal ons zekerlijk H5337 H8686 redden H2063 , en deze H5892 stad H3808 zal niet H3027 in de hand H4428 van den koning H804 van Assyrie H5414 H8735 gegeven worden.
  31 H8085 H8799 Hoort H413 naar H2396 Hizkia H408 niet H3588 ; want H3541 zo H559 H8804 zegt H4428 de koning H804 van Assyrie H6213 H8798 : Handelt H854 met H1293 mij door een geschenk H413 , en komt tot H3318 H8798 mij uit H398 H8798 , en eet H376 , een ieder H1612 [van] zijn wijnstok H376 , en een ieder H8384 [van] zijn vijgeboom H8354 H8798 ; en drinkt H376 een ieder H4325 het water H953 zijns bornputs;
  32 H5704 Totdat H935 H8800 ik kom H853 , en u H3947 H8804 haal H413 in H776 een land H776 , als ulieder land H776 , een land H1715 van koren H8492 en van most H776 , een land H3899 van brood H3754 en van wijngaarden H776 , een land H2132 van olijven H3323 , van olie H1706 en van honig H2421 H8798 ; zo zult gij leven H3808 en niet H4191 H8799 sterven H8085 H8799 ; en hoort H408 niet H413 naar H2396 Hizkia H3588 , want H853 hij hitst u H5496 H8686 op H559 H8800 , zeggende H3068 : De HEERE H5337 H8686 zal ons redden.
  33 H430 Hebben de goden H1471 der volken H376 , ieder H776 zijn land H5337 H8687 , enigszins H5337 H8689 gered H4480 uit H3027 de hand H4428 van den koning H804 van Assyrie?
  34 H346 Waar H430 zijn de goden H2574 van Hamath H774 , en van Arpad H346 ? Waar H430 zijn de goden H5617 van Sefarvaim H2012 , Hena H5755 en Ivva H3588 ? Ja H8111 , hebben zij Samaria H4480 uit H3027 mijn hand H5337 H8689 gered?
  35 H4310 Welke H3605 zijn ze onder alle H430 goden H776 der landen H834 , die H776 hun land H4480 uit H3027 mijn hand H5337 H8689 gered hebben H3588 , dat H3068 de HEERE H3389 Jeruzalem H4480 uit H3027 mijn hand H5337 H8686 redden zou?
  36 H5971 Doch het volk H2790 H8689 zweeg stil H6030 H8804 en antwoordde H853 hem H3808 niet H1697 een woord H3588 ; want H4687 het gebod H4428 des konings H1931 was H559 H8800 , zeggende H3808 : Gij zult hem niet H6030 H8799 antwoorden.
  37 H935 H8799 Toen kwam H471 Eljakim H1121 , de zoon H2518 van Hilkia H834 H5921 H1004 , de hofmeester H7644 , en Sebna H5608 H8802 , de schrijver H3098 , en Joah H1121 , de zoon H623 van Asaf H2142 H8688 , de kanselier H413 , tot H2396 Hizkia H7167 H8803 , met gescheurde H899 klederen H5046 H0 ; en zij gaven H1697 hem de woorden H7262 van Rabsake H5046 H8686 te kennen.
Giguet(i) 1 ¶ En la troisième année du règne d’Osée, en Israël, Ezéchias, fils d’Achaz, devint roi de Juda. 2 Il avait vingt-cinq ans quand il monta sur le trône, et il régna vingt-neuf ans à Jérusalem; sa mère se nommait Abu, fille de Zacharie. 3 Et il fit ce qui est droit aux yeux du Seigneur, se conformant à tout ce qu’avait fait David, son aïeul. 4 Ce fut lui qui détruisit les hauts lieux, qui abattit les colonnes, qui arracha les bois sacrés, et le serpent d’airain qu’avait fait Moïse; car, jusqu’à ces jours-là, les enfants d’Israël l’avaient encensé; Ezéchias lui donna le nom de Neesthan. 5 En Dieu seul il mit son espérance, et après lui il n’y eut point en Juda de roi qui lui ressemblât, et il n’y en avait pas eu parmi ceux qui l’avaient précédé. 6 Il s’attacha au Seigneur, et il ne cessa pas de le suivre; il observa tous les commandements qu’il avait donnés à Moïse. 7 Et le Seigneur était avec lui, et il montra de la sagesse en toutes ses entreprises; il se révolta contre le roi des Assyriens, et il ne lui resta pas asservi. 8 Ce fut lui qui frappa les Philistins jusqu’à Gaza et sa banlieue, depuis les tours des guetteurs jusqu’aux cités fortifiées. 9 ¶ En la quatrième année du règne d’Ezéchias (la septième année du règne d’Osée, en Israël), Salmanasar, roi des Assyriens, ayant marché contre Samarie, l’assiégea. 10 Et il la prit au bout de trois ans, en la huitième année du règne d’Ezéchias (la neuvième du règne d’Osée, celle où tomba Samarie). 11 Puis, le roi des Assyriens transporta ses habitants en Haba et en Habor, sur le fleuve Gozan, et sur les montagnes des Mèdes; 12 Parce que les Samaritains n’avaient point obéi à la voix du Seigneur, qu’ils avaient violé son alliance, qu’ils n’avaient ni écouté, ni pratiqué ce qu’il avait prescrit à son serviteur Moïse. 13 En la quatorzième année du règne d’Ezéchias, Sennachérib, roi des Assyriens, vint assiéger les villes fortes de Juda, et il les prit. 14 Alors, le roi Ezéchias envoya des messagers au roi des Assyriens à Lachis, disant: J’ai failli, éloigne-toi de moi; ce dont tu me chargeras, je le porterai. Et le roi des Assyriens chargea Ezéchias d’une taxe de trois cents talents d’argent et trois cents talents d’or. 15 Et le roi de Juda donna tout l’argent qui se trouva dans le temple et dans les trésors de son palais. 16 En ce temps-là, Ezéchias ôta l’or des portes du temple et les lames d’or dont il avait lui-même revêtu les colonnes, et il les donna au roi des Assyriens. 17 ¶ Et le roi des Assyriens envoya de Lachis, au roi Ezéchias, Tharthan, Rhaphis et Rhabsacès, accompagnés d’une forte armée; ils arrivèrent devant Jérusalem, et s’arrêtèrent à l’aqueduc de la piscine supérieure qui est sur le chemin du Champ du Foulon. 18 De là, ils appelèrent à grands cris Ezéchias; aussitôt Eliacim, fils d’Helcias, l’économe; Sobna le scribe, et Joas, fils de Saphat, l’archiviste, vinrent les trouver. 19 Et Rhabsacès leur dit: Dites à Ezéchias: Voici ce que dit le grand roi, le roi des Assyriens: Quel est l’appui en qui tu t’es confié? 20 Tu as dit (mais seulement des lèvres): Mon conseil, mon armée, inclinent pour la guerre; maintenant donc, en qui t’es-tu confié, pour te révolter contre nous? 21 Voyons, n’as-tu point foi en ce roseau brisé qu’on appelle l’Égypte? Il entrera dans la main de quiconque s’appuiera sur lui, et il la percera. Voilà comment est le Pharaon d’Égypte pour tous ceux qui se fient en lui. 22 Mais, tu m’as dit: Nous nous confions en Dieu le Seigneur. Or, ce Dieu n’est-il pas le même dont Ézéchias a détruit, sur les hauts lieux, les autels, quand il a donné cet ordre à Jérusalem et à Juda: Vous adorerez, devant cet autel seul, dans Jérusalem? 23 Eh bien! combats aujourd’hui mon maître le roi des Assyriens, et je te donnerai deux mille chevaux, si tu peux te donner toi-même deux mille cavaliers. 24 Comment donc feras-tu reculer le moindre des chefs qui servent mon maître? Et tu mets ta confiance en l’Égypte, en ses chars, en ses chevaux! 25 Est-ce que nous sommes venus détruire cette terre sans le Seigneur? Le Seigneur m’a dit: Marche sur cette terre, et détruis-la. 26 Et Eliacim, fils d’Helcias, Sobna et Joas dirent à Rhabsacès: Parle syrien à tes serviteurs, car nous l’entendons; ne nous parle pas en langue judaïque. Pourquoi parles-tu pour être ouï du peuple qui est sur les remparts? 27 Mais Rhabsacès répondit: Est-ce que mon maître m’a envoyé dire ces paroles à ton maître et à toi? Ne sont-elles pas pour les hommes qui se tiennent sur les remparts, et qui sont réduits comme vous à manger leurs excréments et à boire leur urine? 28 Et Rhabsacès, se redressant, éleva la voix, et dit en langue judaïque: Écoutez les paroles du grand roi des Assyriens; 29 Voici ce que dit le roi: Qu’Ezéchias ne vous excite point par ses discours, car il ne pourra vous arracher de mes mains. 30 Qu’Ézéchias ne vous fasse point espérer au Seigneur, disant: Le Seigneur nous délivrera; il ne livrera point sa ville au roi des Assyriens. 31 N’écoutez point Ezéchias; car voici ce que dit le roi des Assyriens: Cherchez auprès de moi votre bénédiction; venez à moi, et chacun boira le vin de sa vigne, chacun mangera les fruits de son figuier, chacun boira l’eau de sa citerne, 32 Jusqu’à ce que je revienne pour vous transporter en une terre comme la vôtre, en une terre de blé et de vignes, terre de pain et de vin, terre d’huile et de miel; et vous vivrez et vous ne mourrez point. N’écoutez point Ezéchias; car il vous trompe, quand il dit: Le Seigneur vous délivrera. 33 Les dieux des nations qui tour à tour sont tombées dans les mains du roi, les ont-ils délivrées? 34 Où est le dieu d’Emath et d’Arphad? Où est le dieu de Sepharvaïm, d’Ana et d’Abe? Ont-ils délivré Samarie de me mains? 35 Quel est donc celui des dieux, de toutes les nations, qui ait délivré sa terre de mes mains? Le Seigneur délivrera-t-il Jérusalem de mes mains? 36 Et le peuple resta muet; personne ne répondit à ce discours; car le roi l’avait ainsi ordonné, disant: Ne lui répondez pas. 37 Et l’économe Eliacim, fils d’Helcias, le scribe Sobna et l’archiviste Joas, fils de Saphat, rentrèrent auprès d’Ezéchias après avoir déchiré leurs vêtements; ils lui rapportèrent les paroles de Rhabsacès.

Et il arriva, la troisième année d'Osée, fils d'Éla, roi d'Israël, qu'Ézéchias, fils d'Achaz, roi de Juda, commença de régner. 2 Il était âgé de vingt-cinq ans lorsqu'il commença de régner; et il régna vingt-neuf ans à Jérusalem; et le nom de sa mère était Abi, fille de Zacharie. 3 Et il fit ce qui est droit aux yeux de l'Éternel, selon tout ce qu'avait fait David, son père. 4 Il ôta les hauts lieux, et brisa les statues, et coupa les ashères, et mit en pièces le serpent d'airain que Moïse avait fait, car jusqu'à ces jours-là les fils d'Israël lui brûlaient de l'encens; et il l'appela: Nehushtan. 5 Il mit sa confiance en l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël; et après lui, il n'y en eut point de semblable à lui parmi tous les rois de Juda, non plus que parmi ceux qui avaient été avant lui. 6 Et il s'attacha à l'Éternel; il ne se détourna point de lui, et il garda ses commandements, que l'Éternel avait commandés à Moïse. 7 Et l'Éternel fut avec lui: partout où il allait, il prospéra. Et il se révolta contre le roi d'Assyrie, et ne le servit pas. 8 Il frappa les Philistins jusqu'à Gaza, et ses confins, depuis la tour des gardes jusqu'à la ville forte. 9
Et il arriva, la quatrième année du roi Ézéchias, qui était la septième année d'Osée, fils d'Éla, roi d'Israël, que Shalmanéser, roi d'Assyrie, monta contre Samarie et l'assiégea. 10 Et ils la prirent au bout de trois ans: la sixième année d'Ézéchias, ce fut la neuvième année d'Osée, roi d'Israël, Samarie fut prise. 11 Et le roi d'Assyrie transporta Israël en Assyrie, et les établit à Khalakh, et sur le Khabor, fleuve de Gozan, et dans les villes des Mèdes, 12 parce qu'ils n'écoutèrent point la voix de l'Éternel, leur Dieu, et transgressèrent son alliance, tout ce que Moïse, serviteur de l'Éternel, avait commandé; et ils n'écoutèrent pas, et ne le firent pas. 13 Et la quatorzième année du roi Ézéchias, Sankhérib, roi d'Assyrie, monta contre toutes les villes fortes de Juda et les prit. 14 Et Ézéchias, roi de Juda, envoya au roi d'Assyrie à Lakis, disant: J'ai péché, retire-toi de moi; ce que tu m'imposeras, je le supporterai. Et le roi d'Assyrie imposa à Ézéchias, roi de Juda, trois cents talents d'argent, et trente talents d'or. 15 Et Ézéchias donna tout l'argent qui se trouva dans la maison de l'Éternel et dans les trésors de la maison du roi. 16 En ce temps-là, Ézéchias dépouilla les portes du temple de l'Éternel, et les piliers qu'Ézéchias, roi de Juda, avait recouverts d'or, et il les donna au roi d'Assyrie. 17
Et le roi d'Assyrie envoya de Lakis, le Tharthan, et le Rab-Saris, et le Rab-Shaké, avec de grandes forces, vers le roi Ézéchias à Jérusalem; et ils montèrent et vinrent à Jérusalem. Et ils montèrent et vinrent, et se tinrent près de l'aqueduc de l'étang supérieur, qui est sur la route du champ du foulon. 18 Et ils appelèrent le roi. Et Éliakim, fils de Hilkija, qui était préposé sur la maison du roi, et Shebna, le scribe, et Joakh, fils d'Asaph, rédacteur des chroniques, sortirent vers eux. 19 Et le Rab-Shaké leur dit: Dites à Ézéchias: Ainsi dit le grand roi, le roi d'Assyrie: Quelle est cette confiance que tu as? 20 Tu dis (ce ne sont que paroles des lèvres): Le conseil et la force sont là pour la guerre. Maintenant, en qui te confies-tu que tu te révoltes contre moi? 21 Or voici, tu te confies en ce bâton de roseau cassé, en l'Égypte, lequel, si quelqu'un s'appuie dessus, lui entre dans la main et la perce. Tel est le Pharaon, roi d'Égypte, pour tous ceux qui se confient en lui. 22 Que si vous me dites: Nous nous confions en l'Éternel, notre Dieu,... n'est-ce pas lui dont Ézéchias a ôté les hauts lieux et les autels, en disant à Juda et à Jérusalem: Vous vous prosternerez devant cet autel-ci à Jérusalem? 23 Et maintenant, fais un accord, je te prie, avec le roi d'Assyrie, mon seigneur, et je te donnerai deux mille chevaux si tu peux donner des cavaliers pour les monter. 24 Et comment ferais-tu tourner visage à un seul capitaine d'entre les moindres serviteurs de mon seigneur? Et tu mets ta confiance en l'Égypte, pour des chars et des cavaliers... 25 Suis-je maintenant monté sans l'Éternel contre ce lieu pour le détruire? L'Éternel m'a dit: Monte contre ce pays, et détruis-le. 26 Et Éliakim, fils de Hilkija, et Shebna, et Joakh, dirent à Rab-Shaké: Parle, nous te prions, à tes serviteurs en syriaque, car nous le comprenons, et ne nous parle pas en langue judaïque, aux oreilles du peuple qui est sur la muraille. 27 Et le Rab-Shaké leur dit: Est-ce vers ton seigneur et vers toi que mon seigneur m'a envoyé pour dire ces paroles? N'est-ce pas vers les hommes qui se tiennent sur la muraille, pour manger leurs excréments et pour boire leur urine avec vous? 28 Et le Rab-Shaké se tint là, et cria à haute voix en langue judaïque, et parla, et dit: Écoutez la parole du grand roi, le roi d'Assyrie. 29 Ainsi dit le roi: Qu'Ézéchias ne vous trompe point; car il ne pourra pas vous délivrer de la main du roi. 30 Et qu'Ézéchias ne vous fasse pas mettre votre confiance en l'Éternel, disant: L'Éternel vous délivrera certainement, et cette ville ne sera point livrée en la main du roi d'Assyrie. 31 N'écoutez pas Ézéchias; car ainsi dit le roi d'Assyrie: Faites la paix avec moi, et sortez vers moi; et vous mangerez chacun de sa vigne et chacun de son figuier, et vous boirez chacun des eaux de son puits, 32 jusqu'à ce que je vienne et que je vous emmène dans un pays comme votre pays, un pays de blé et de moût, un pays de pain et de vignes, un pays d'oliviers à huile et de miel: et vous vivrez, et vous ne mourrez point. Et n'écoutez pas Ézéchias, car il vous séduit, disant: L'Éternel nous délivrera. 33 Les dieux des nations ont-ils bien délivré chacun son pays de la main du roi d'Assyrie? 34 Où sont les dieux de Hamath et d'Arpad? Où sont les dieux de Sepharvaïm, d'Héna, et d'Ivva? Et ont-ils délivré Samarie de ma main? 35 Quels sont d'entre tous les dieux des pays ceux qui ont délivré leur pays de ma main, pour que l'Éternel délivre Jérusalem de ma main? 36 Et le peuple se tut, et ne lui répondit pas un mot; car c'était là le commandement du roi, disant: Vous ne lui répondrez pas. 37 Et Éliakim, fils de Hilkija, qui était préposé sur la maison, et Shebna, le scribe, et Joakh, fils d'Asaph, rédacteur des chroniques, vinrent vers Ézéchias, leurs vêtements déchirés, et ils lui rapportèrent les paroles du Rab-Shaké.
Martin(i) 1 Or la troisième année d'Hosée fils d'Ela Roi d'Israël, Ezéchias fils d'Achaz Roi de Juda commença à régner. 2 Il était âgé de vingt-cinq ans quand il commença à régner, et il régna vingt et neuf ans à Jérusalem; sa mère avait nom Abi, et était fille de Zacharie. 3 Il fit ce gui est droit devant l'Eternel comme avait fait David son père. 4 Il ôta les hauts lieux, mit en pièces les statues, coupa les bocages, et il brisa le serpent d'airain que Moïse avait fait, parce que jusqu'à ce jour-là les enfants d'Israël lui faisaient des encensements; et il le nomma Néhustan. 5 Il mit son espérance en l'Eternel le Dieu d'Israël, et après lui il n'y eut point de Roi semblable à lui entre tous les Rois de Juda, comme il n'y en avait point eu entre ceux qui avaient été avant lui. 6 Il s'attacha à l'Eternel, il ne s'en détourna point; et il garda les commandements que l'Eternel avait donnés à Moïse. 7 Et l'Eternel fut avec lui partout où il allait, et il prospérait; mais il se rebella contre le Roi des Assyriens, pour ne lui être point assujetti. 8 Il frappa les Philistins jusqu'à Gaza, et ses confins, depuis les tours des gardes jusqu'aux villes fortes. 9 Or il arriva en la quatrième année du Roi Ezéchias, qui était la septième du règne d'Hosée fils d'Ela Roi d'Israël, que Salmanéser Roi des Assyriens monta contre Samarie, et l'assiégea. 10 Au bout de trois ans ils la prirent; et ainsi la sixième année du règne d'Ezéchias, qui était la neuvième d'Hosée Roi d'Israël, Samarie fut prise. 11 Et le Roi des Assyriens transporta les Israëlites en Assyrie, et les fit mener à Chalach, et sur le Chabor, fleuve de Gozan, et dans les villes des Mèdes; 12 Parce qu'ils n'avaient point obéi à la voix de l'Eternel leur Dieu, mais avaient transgressé son alliance, et tout ce que Moïse serviteur de l'Eternel avait commandé; ils n'y avaient point obéi, et ne l'avaient point fait. 13 0r en la quatorzième année du Roi Ezéchias, Sanchérib Roi des Assyriens monta contre toutes les villes fortes de Juda, et les prit. 14 Et Ezéchias Roi de Juda envoya dire au Roi des Assyriens à Lakis : J'ai fait une faute, retire-toi de moi, je payerai tout ce que tu m'imposeras; et le Roi des Assyriens imposa trois cents talents d'argent, et trente talents d'or à Ezéchias Roi de Juda. 15 Et Ezéchias donna tout l'argent qui se trouva dans la maison de l'Eternel, et dans les trésors de la maison Royale. 16 En ce temps-là Ezéchias mit en pièces les portes du Temple de l'Eternel, et les linteaux que lui-même avait couverts de lames d'or, et il les donna au Roi des Assyriens. 17 Puis le Roi des Assyriens envoya de Lakis, Tarta, Rab-saris, et Rab-saké, avec de grandes forces vers le Roi Ezéchias à Jérusalem; et ils montèrent et vinrent à Jérusalem. Or étant montés et venus ils se présentèrent auprès du conduit du haut étang, qui est au grand chemin du champ du foulon. 18 Et ils appelèrent le Roi tout haut. Alors Eliakim fils de Hilkija maître d'hôtel, et Sebna le Secrétaire, et Joach fils d'Asaph, commis sur les Registres, sortirent vers eux. 19 Et Rab-saké leur dit : Dites maintenant à Ezéchias : Ainsi a dit le grand Roi, le Roi des Assyriens : Quelle est cette confiance sur laquelle tu t'appuies ? 20 Tu parles, mais ce ne sont que des paroles; le conseil et la force sont requis à la guerre. Mais en qui t'es-tu confié, pour te rebeller contre moi ? 21 Voici maintenant, tu t'es confié en l'Egypte, en ce roseau cassé, sur lequel si quelqu'un s'appuie, il lui entrera dans la main, et la percera; tel est Pharaon Roi d'Egypte à tous ceux qui se confient en lui. 22 Que si vous me dites : Nous nous confions en l'Eternel notre Dieu; n'est-ce pas celui dont Ezéchias a détruit les hauts lieux, et les autels, et a dit à Juda, et à Jérusalem : Vous vous prosternerez devant cet autel à Jérusalem ? 23 Or maintenant donne des otages au Roi des Assyriens mon Maître, et je te donnerai deux mille chevaux, si tu peux donner autant d'hommes pour monter dessus. 24 Comment donc ferais-tu tourner visage au moindre Gouverneur d'entre les serviteurs de mon Maître ? mais tu te confies en l'Egypte, à cause des chariots et des gens de cheval. 25 Mais maintenant suis-je monté sans l'Eternel contre ce lieu-ci pour le détruire ? l'Eternel m'a dit : Monte contre ce pays-là, et le détruis. 26 Alors Eliakim fils de Hilkija, et Sebna, et Joach dirent à Rab-saké : Nous te prions de parler en Langue Syriaque à tes serviteurs, car nous l'entendons; et ne nous parle point en Langue Judaïque, le peuple qui est sur la muraille l'écoutant. 27 Et Rab-saké leur répondit : Mon Maître m'a-t-il envoyé vers ton Maître, ou vers toi, pour parler ce langage ? ne m'a-t-il pas envoyé vers les hommes qui se tiennent sur la muraille; pour leur dire qu'ils mangeront leur propre fiente, et qu'ils boiront leur urine avec vous ? 28 Rab-saké donc se tint debout, et s'écria à haute voix en Langue Judaïque, et parla, et dit : Ecoutez la parole du grand Roi, le Roi des Assyriens. 29 Ainsi a dit le Roi : Qu'Ezéchias ne vous abuse point; car il ne vous pourra point délivrer de ma main. 30 Qu'Ezéchias ne vous fasse point confier en l'Eternel, en disant : L'Eternel indubitablement nous délivrera, et cette ville ne sera point livrée entre les mains du Roi des Assyriens. 31 N'écoutez point Ezéchias; car ainsi a dit le Roi des Assyriens : Faites composition avec moi, et sortez vers moi; et vous mangerez chacun de sa vigne, et chacun de son figuier, et vous boirez chacun de l'eau de sa citerne; 32 Avant que je vienne, et que je vous emmène en un pays qui est comme votre pays, un pays de froment et de bon vin, un pays de pain et de vignes, un pays d'oliviers qui portent de l'huile, et un pays de miel; vous vivrez, et vous ne mourrez point; mais n'écoutez point Ezéchias, quand il vous voudra persuader, en disant : L'Eternel nous délivrera. 33 Les dieux des nations ont-ils délivré chacun leur pays de la main du Roi des Assyriens ? 34 Où sont les dieux de Hamath, et d'Arpad; où sont les dieux de Sépharvajim, d'Henah, et de Hiwah ? et même a-t-on délivré Samarie de ma main ? 35 Qui sont ceux d'entre tous les dieux de ces pays-là qui aient délivré leur pays de ma main, pour dire que l'Eternel délivrera Jérusalem de ma main ? 36 Et le peuple se tut, et on ne lui répondit pas un mot; car le Roi avait commandé disant : Vous ne lui répondrez point. 37 Après cela, Eliakim fils de Hilkija Maître d'hôtel, et Sebna le Secrétaire, et Joach fils d'Asaph, commis sur les Registres, s'en revinrent, les vêtements déchirés, vers Ezéchias, et ils lui rapportèrent les paroles de Rab-saké.
Segond(i) 1 La troisième année d'Osée, fils d'Ela, roi d'Israël, Ezéchias, fils d'Achaz, roi de Juda, régna. 2 Il avait vingt-cinq ans lorsqu'il devint roi, et il régna vingt-neuf ans à Jérusalem. Sa mère s'appelait Abi, fille de Zacharie. 3 Il fit ce qui est droit aux yeux de l'Eternel, entièrement comme avait fait David, son père. 4 Il fit disparaître les hauts lieux, brisa les statues, abattit les idoles, et mit en pièces le serpent d'airain que Moïse avait fait, car les enfants d'Israël avaient jusqu'alors brûlé des parfums devant lui: on l'appelait Nehuschtan. 5 Il mit sa confiance en l'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël; et parmi tous les rois de Juda qui vinrent après lui ou qui le précédèrent, il n'y en eut point de semblable à lui. 6 Il fut attaché à l'Eternel, il ne se détourna point de lui, et il observa les commandements que l'Eternel avait prescrits à Moïse. 7 Et l'Eternel fut avec Ezéchias, qui réussit dans toutes ses entreprises. Il se révolta contre le roi d'Assyrie, et ne lui fut plus assujetti. 8 Il battit les Philistins jusqu'à Gaza, et ravagea leur territoire depuis les tours des gardes jusqu'aux villes fortes. 9 La quatrième année du roi Ezéchias, qui était la septième année d'Osée, fils d'Ela, roi d'Israël, Salmanasar, roi d'Assyrie, monta contre Samarie et l'assiégea. 10 Il la prit au bout de trois ans, la sixième année d'Ezéchias, qui était la neuvième année d'Osée, roi d'Israël: alors Samarie fut prise. 11 Le roi d'Assyrie emmena Israël captif en Assyrie, et il les établit à Chalach, et sur le Chabor, fleuve de Gozan, et dans les villes des Mèdes, 12 parce qu'ils n'avaient point écouté la voix de l'Eternel, leur Dieu, et qu'ils avaient transgressé son alliance, parce qu'ils n'avaient ni écouté ni mis en pratique tout ce qu'avait ordonné Moïse, serviteur de l'Eternel. 13 La quatorzième année du roi Ezéchias, Sanchérib, roi d'Assyrie, monta contre toutes les villes fortes de Juda, et s'en empara. 14 Ezéchias, roi de Juda, envoya dire au roi d'Assyrie à Lakis: J'ai commis une faute! Eloigne-toi de moi. Ce que tu m'imposeras, je le supporterai. Et le roi d'Assyrie imposa à Ezéchias, roi de Juda, trois cents talents d'argent et trente talents d'or. 15 Ezéchias donna tout l'argent qui se trouvait dans la maison de l'Eternel et dans les trésors de la maison du roi. 16 Ce fut alors qu'Ezéchias, roi de Juda, enleva, pour les livrer au roi d'Assyrie, les lames d'or dont il avait couvert les portes et les linteaux du temple de l'Eternel. 17 Le roi d'Assyrie envoya de Lakis à Jérusalem, vers le roi Ezéchias, Tharthan, Rab-Saris et Rabschaké avec une puissante armée. Ils montèrent, et ils arrivèrent à Jérusalem. Lorsqu'ils furent montés et arrivés, ils s'arrêtèrent à l'aqueduc de l'étang supérieur, sur le chemin du champ du foulon. 18 Ils appelèrent le roi; et Eliakim, fils de Hilkija, chef de la maison du roi, se rendit auprès d'eux, avec Schebna, le secrétaire, et Joach, fils d'Asaph, l'archiviste. 19 Rabschaké leur dit: Dites à Ezéchias: Ainsi parle le grand roi, le roi d'Assyrie: Quelle est cette confiance, sur laquelle tu t'appuies? 20 Tu as dit: Il faut pour la guerre de la prudence et de la force. Mais ce ne sont que des paroles en l'air. En qui donc as-tu placé ta confiance, pour t'être révolté contre moi? 21 Voici, tu l'as placée dans l'Egypte, tu as pris pour soutien ce roseau cassé, qui pénètre et perce la main de quiconque s'appuie dessus: tel est Pharaon, roi d'Egypte, pour tous ceux qui se confient en lui. 22 Peut-être me direz-vous: C'est en l'Eternel, notre Dieu, que nous nous confions. Mais n'est-ce pas lui dont Ezéchias a fait disparaître les hauts lieux et les autels, en disant à Juda et à Jérusalem: Vous vous prosternerez devant cet autel à Jérusalem? 23 Maintenant, fais une convention avec mon maître, le roi d'Assyrie, et je te donnerai deux mille chevaux, si tu peux fournir des cavaliers pour les monter. 24 Comment repousserais-tu un seul chef d'entre les moindres serviteurs de mon maître? Tu mets ta confiance dans l'Egypte pour les chars et pour les cavaliers. 25 D'ailleurs, est-ce sans la volonté de l'Eternel que je suis monté contre ce lieu, pour le détruire? L'Eternel m'a dit: Monte contre ce pays, et détruis-le. 26 Eliakim, fils de Hilkija, Schebna et Joach, dirent à Rabschaké: Parle à tes serviteurs en araméen, car nous le comprenons; et ne nous parle pas en langue judaïque, aux oreilles du peuple qui est sur la muraille. 27 Rabschaké leur répondit: Est-ce à ton maître et à toi que mon maître m'a envoyé dire ces paroles? N'est-ce pas à ces hommes assis sur la muraille pour manger leurs excréments et pour boire leur urine avec vous? 28 Alors Rabschaké, s'étant avancé, cria à haute voix en langue judaïque, et dit: Ecoutez la parole du grand roi, du roi d'Assyrie! 29 Ainsi parle le roi: Qu'Ezéchias ne vous abuse point, car il ne pourra vous délivrer de ma main. 30 Qu'Ezéchias ne vous amène point à vous confier en l'Eternel, en disant: L'Eternel nous délivrera, et cette ville ne sera pas livrée entre les mains du roi d'Assyrie. 31 N'écoutez point Ezéchias; car ainsi parle le roi d'Assyrie: Faites la paix avec moi, rendez-vous à moi, et chacun de vous mangera de sa vigne et de son figuier, et chacun boira de l'eau de sa citerne, 32 jusqu'à ce que je vienne, et que je vous emmène dans un pays comme le vôtre, dans un pays de blé et de vin, un pays de pain et de vignes, un pays d'oliviers à huile et de miel, et vous vivrez et vous ne mourrez point. N'écoutez donc point Ezéchias; car il pourrait vous séduire en disant: L'Eternel nous délivrera. 33 Les dieux des nations ont-ils délivré chacun son pays de la main du roi d'Assyrie? 34 Où sont les dieux de Hamath et d'Arpad? Où sont les dieux de Sepharvaïm, d'Héna et d'Ivva? Ont-ils délivré Samarie de ma main? 35 Parmi tous les dieux de ces pays, quels sont ceux qui ont délivré leur pays de ma main, pour que l'Eternel délivre Jérusalem de ma main? 36 Le peuple se tut, et ne lui répondit pas un mot; car le roi avait donné cet ordre: Vous ne lui répondrez pas. 37 Et Eliakim, fils de Hilkija, chef de la maison du roi, Schebna, le secrétaire, et Joach, fils d'Asaph, l'archiviste, vinrent auprès d'Ezéchias, les vêtements déchirés, et lui rapportèrent les paroles de Rabschaké.

  2 H1121 Il avait H6242 vingt H2568 -cinq H8141 ans H4427 lorsqu’il devint roi H8800   H4427 , et il régna H8804   H6242 vingt H8672 -neuf H8141 ans H3389 à Jérusalem H517 . Sa mère H8034 s’appelait H21 Abi H1323 , fille H2148 de Zacharie.
  3 H6213 Il fit H8799   H3477 ce qui est droit H5869 aux yeux H3068 de l’Eternel H6213 , entièrement comme avait fait H8804   H1732 David H1 , son père.
  4 H5493 Il fit disparaître H8689   H1116 les hauts lieux H7665 , brisa H8765   H4676 les statues H3772 , abattit H8804   H842 les idoles H3807 , et mit en pièces H8765   H5175 le serpent H5178 d’airain H4872 que Moïse H6213 avait fait H8804   H1121 , car les enfants H3478 d’Israël H3117 avaient jusqu’alors H6999 brûlé des parfums H8764   H7121 devant lui : on l’appelait H8799   H5180 Nehuschtan.
  5 H982 Il mit sa confiance H8804   H3068 en l’Eternel H430 , le Dieu H3478 d’Israël H4428  ; et parmi tous les rois H3063 de Juda H310 qui vinrent après H6440 lui ou qui le précédèrent, il n’y en eut point de semblable à lui.
  6 H1692 Il fut attaché H8799   H3068 à l’Eternel H5493 , il ne se détourna H8804   H310   H8104 point de lui, et il observa H8799   H4687 les commandements H3068 que l’Eternel H6680 avait prescrits H8765   H4872 à Moïse.
  7 H3068 Et l’Eternel H7919 fut avec Ezéchias, qui réussit H8686   H3318 dans toutes ses entreprises H8799   H4775 . Il se révolta H8799   H4428 contre le roi H804 d’Assyrie H5647 , et ne lui fut plus assujetti H8804  .
  8 H5221 Il battit H8689   H6430 les Philistins H5804 jusqu’à Gaza H1366 , et ravagea leur territoire H4026 depuis les tours H5341 des gardes H8802   H5892 jusqu’aux villes H4013 fortes.
  9 H7243 ¶ La quatrième H8141 année H4428 du roi H2396 Ezéchias H7637 , qui était la septième H8141 année H1954 d’Osée H1121 , fils H425 d’Ela H4428 , roi H3478 d’Israël H8022 , Salmanasar H4428 , roi H804 d’Assyrie H5927 , monta H8804   H8111 contre Samarie H6696 et l’assiégea H8799  .
  10 H3920 Il la prit H8799   H7097 au bout H7969 de trois H8141 ans H8337 , la sixième H8141 année H2396 d’Ezéchias H8672 , qui était la neuvième H8141 année H1954 d’Osée H4428 , roi H3478 d’Israël H8111 : alors Samarie H3920 fut prise H8738  .
  11 H4428 Le roi H804 d’Assyrie H1540 emmena H0   H3478 Israël H1540 captif H8686   H804 en Assyrie H5148 , et il les établit H8686   H2477 à Chalach H2249 , et sur le Chabor H5104 , fleuve H1470 de Gozan H5892 , et dans les villes H4074 des Mèdes,
  12 H8085 parce qu’ils n’avaient point écouté H8804   H6963 la voix H3068 de l’Eternel H430 , leur Dieu H5674 , et qu’ils avaient transgressé H8799   H1285 son alliance H8085 , parce qu’ils n’avaient ni écouté H8804   H6213 ni mis en pratique H8804   H6680 tout ce qu’avait ordonné H8765   H4872 Moïse H5650 , serviteur H3068 de l’Eternel.
  13 H702 La quatorzième H6240   H8141 année H4428 du roi H2396 Ezéchias H5576 , Sanchérib H4428 , roi H804 d’Assyrie H5927 , monta H8804   H5892 contre toutes les villes H1219 fortes H8803   H3063 de Juda H8610 , et s’en empara H8799  .
  14 H2396 Ezéchias H4428 , roi H3063 de Juda H7971 , envoya H8799   H559 dire H8800   H4428 au roi H804 d’Assyrie H3923 à Lakis H2398  : J’ai commis une faute H8804   H7725  ! Eloigne H8798   H5414 -toi de moi. Ce que tu m’imposeras H8799   H5375 , je le supporterai H8799   H4428 . Et le roi H804 d’Assyrie H7760 imposa H8799   H2396 à Ezéchias H4428 , roi H3063 de Juda H7969 , trois H3967 cents H3603 talents H3701 d’argent H7970 et trente H3603 talents H2091 d’or.
  15 H2396 Ezéchias H5414 donna H8799   H3701 tout l’argent H4672 qui se trouvait H8737   H1004 dans la maison H3068 de l’Eternel H214 et dans les trésors H1004 de la maison H4428 du roi.
  16 H6256 Ce fut alors H2396 qu’Ezéchias H2396   H4428 , roi H3063 de Juda H7112 , enleva H8765   H5414 , pour les livrer H8799   H4428 au roi H804 d’Assyrie H6823 , les lames d’or dont il avait couvert H8765   H1817 les portes H547 et les linteaux H1964 du temple H3068 de l’Eternel.
  17 H4428 ¶ Le roi H804 d’Assyrie H7971 envoya H8799   H3923 de Lakis H3389 à Jérusalem H4428 , vers le roi H2396 Ezéchias H8661 , Tharthan H7249 , Rab-Saris H7262 et Rabschaké H3515 avec une puissante H2426 armée H5927 . Ils montèrent H8799   H935 , et ils arrivèrent H8799   H3389 à Jérusalem H5927 . Lorsqu’ils furent montés H8799   H935 et arrivés H8799   H5975 , ils s’arrêtèrent H8799   H8585 à l’aqueduc H1295 de l’étang H5945 supérieur H4546 , sur le chemin H7704 du champ H3526 du foulon H8801  .
  18 H7121 Ils appelèrent H8799   H4428 le roi H471  ; et Eliakim H1121 , fils H2518 de Hilkija H1004 , chef de la maison H3318 du roi, se rendit H8799   H7644 auprès d’eux, avec Schebna H5608 , le secrétaire H8802   H3098 , et Joach H1121 , fils H623 d’Asaph H2142 , l’archiviste H8688  .
  19 H7262 Rabschaké H559 leur dit H8799   H559  : Dites H8798   H2396 à Ezéchias H559  : Ainsi parle H8804   H1419 le grand H4428 roi H4428 , le roi H804 d’Assyrie H986  : Quelle est cette confiance H982 , sur laquelle tu t’appuies H8804   ?
  20 H559 Tu as dit H8804   H4421  : Il faut pour la guerre H6098 de la prudence H1369 et de la force H1697 . Mais ce ne sont que des paroles H8193 en l’air H982 . En qui donc as-tu placé ta confiance H8804   H4775 , pour t’être révolté H8804   contre moi ?
  21 H982 Voici, tu l’as placée H8804   H4714 dans l’Egypte H4938 , tu as pris pour soutien H7070 ce roseau H7533 cassé H8803   H935 , qui pénètre H8804   H5344 et perce H8804   H3709 la main H376 de quiconque H5564 s’appuie H8735   H6547 dessus : tel est Pharaon H4428 , roi H4714 d’Egypte H982 , pour tous ceux qui se confient H8802   en lui.
  22 H559 Peut-être me direz H8799   H3068 -vous : C’est en l’Eternel H430 , notre Dieu H982 , que nous nous confions H8804   H2396 . Mais n’est-ce pas lui dont Ezéchias H5493 a fait disparaître H8689   H1116 les hauts lieux H4196 et les autels H559 , en disant H8799   H3063 à Juda H3389 et à Jérusalem H7812  : Vous vous prosternerez H8691   H6440 devant H4196 cet autel H3389 à Jérusalem ?
  23 H6148 Maintenant, fais une convention H8690   H113 avec mon maître H4428 , le roi H804 d’Assyrie H5414 , et je te donnerai H8799   H505 deux mille H5483 chevaux H3201 , si tu peux H8799   H7392 fournir des cavaliers H8802   H5414 pour les monter H8800  .
  24 H7725 Comment repousserais H8686   H6440   H259 -tu un seul H6346 chef H6996 d’entre les moindres H5650 serviteurs H113 de mon maître H982  ? Tu mets ta confiance H8799   H4714 dans l’Egypte H7393 pour les chars H6571 et pour les cavaliers.
  25 H1107 D’ailleurs, est-ce sans H3068 la volonté de l’Eternel H5927 que je suis monté H8804   H4725 contre ce lieu H7843 , pour le détruire H8687   H3068  ? L’Eternel H559 m’a dit H8804   H5927  : Monte H8798   H776 contre ce pays H7843 , et détruis H8685  -le.
  26 H471 Eliakim H1121 , fils H2518 de Hilkija H7644 , Schebna H3098 et Joach H559 , dirent H8799   H7262 à Rabschaké H1696  : Parle H8761   H5650 à tes serviteurs H762 en araméen H8085 , car nous le comprenons H8802   H1696  ; et ne nous parle H8762   H3066 pas en langue judaïque H241 , aux oreilles H5971 du peuple H2346 qui est sur la muraille.
  27 H7262 Rabschaké H559 leur répondit H8799   H113  : Est-ce à ton maître H113 et à toi que mon maître H7971 m’a envoyé H8804   H1696 dire H8763   H1697 ces paroles H582  ? N’est-ce pas à ces hommes H3427 assis H8802   H2346 sur la muraille H398 pour manger H8800   H6675 leurs excréments H8675   H2755   H8354 et pour boire H8800   H4325 leur urine H7272   H8675   H7890   avec vous ?
  28 H7262 Alors Rabschaké H5975 , s’étant avancé H8799   H7121 , cria H8799   H1419 à haute H6963 voix H3066 en langue judaïque H1696 , et dit H8762   H559   H8799   H8085  : Ecoutez H8798   H1697 la parole H1419 du grand H4428 roi H4428 , du roi H804 d’Assyrie !
  29 H559 Ainsi parle H8804   H4428 le roi H2396  : Qu’Ezéchias H5377 ne vous abuse H8686   H3201 point, car il ne pourra H8799   H5337 vous délivrer H8687   H3027 de ma main.

SE(i) 1 En el tercer año de Oseas hijo de Ela rey de Israel, comenzó a reinar Ezequías hijo de Acaz rey de Judá. 2 Cuando comenzó a reinar era de veinticinco años, y reinó en Jerusalén veintinueve años. El nombre de su madre fue Abi hija de Zacarías. 3 El hizo lo recto en ojos del SEÑOR, conforme a todas las cosas que había hecho David su padre. 4 El quitó los altos, y quebró las imágenes, y taló los bosques, e hizo pedazos la serpiente de bronce que había hecho Moisés, porque hasta entonces le quemaban incienso los hijos de Israel; y le llamó por nombre Nehustán ( cosa de bronce). 5 En el SEÑOR Dios de Israel puso su esperanza; después ni antes de él no hubo otro como él en todos los reyes de Judá. 6 Porque se llegó al SEÑOR, y no se apartó de él, y guardó los mandamientos que el SEÑOR mandó a Moisés. 7 Y el SEÑOR fue con él; y en todas las cosas a que salía prosperaba. El se rebeló contra el rey de Asiria, y no le sirvió. 8 Hirió también a los filisteos hasta Gaza y sus términos, desde las torres de las atalayas hasta la ciudad fortalecida. 9 En el cuarto año del rey Ezequías, que era el año séptimo de Oseas hijo de Ela, rey de Israel, subió Salmanasar rey de los Asirios contra Samaria, y la cercó. 10 Y la tomaron al cabo de tres años; esto es, en el sexto año de Ezequías, el cual era el año noveno de Oseas rey de Israel, y así fue tomada Samaria. 11 Y el rey de Asiria traspuso a Israel a Asiria, y los puso en Halah, y en Habor, junto al río de Gozán, y en las ciudades de los Medos: 12 Por cuanto no habían oído la voz del SEÑOR su Dios, antes habían quebrantado su pacto; y todas las cosas que Moisés siervo de Dios había mandado, ni las habían oído, ni las habían cumplido. 13 Y a los catorce años del rey Ezequías, subió Senaquerib rey de Asiria contra todas las ciudades fuertes de Judá, y las tomó. 14 Entonces Ezequías rey de Judá envió a decir al rey de Asiria en Laquis: Yo he pecado; vuélvete de mí, y yo llevaré todo lo que me impusieres. Entonces el rey de Asiria impuso a Ezequías rey de Judá trescientos talentos de plata, y treinta talentos de oro. 15 Y Ezequías dio toda la plata que fue hallada en la Casa del SEÑOR, y en los tesoros de la casa real. 16 Entonces rompió Ezequías las puertas del templo del SEÑOR, y los quiciales que el mismo rey Ezequías había cubierto de oro, y lo dio al rey de Asiria. 17 Y el rey de Asiria envió a Tartán y a Rabsaris y a Rabsaces desde Laquis al rey Ezequías con un grande ejército contra Jerusalén; y subieron, y vinieron a Jerusalén. Y subieron, y vinieron, y pararon junto al conducto del estanque de arriba, que es en el camino de la heredad del lavador. 18 Y llamaron al rey, y salió a ellos Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, que era mayordomo, y Sebna escriba, y Joa hijo de Asaf, canciller. 19 Y les dijo Rabsaces: Decid ahora a Ezequías: Así dice el gran rey, el rey de Asiria: ¿Qué confianza es esta en que tú estás? 20 Dices, (por cierto palabras de labios): Consejo tengo y esfuerzo para la guerra. Mas ¿en qué confías, que te has rebelado contra mí? 21 He aquí tú confías ahora en este bordón de caña quebrado, en Egipto, en el que si alguno se apoyare, le entrará por la mano, y se le pasará. Tal es Faraón rey de Egipto, para todos los que en él confían. 22 Y si me decís: Nosotros confiamos en el SEÑOR nuestro Dios, ¿no es aquél cuyos altos y altares ha quitado Ezequías, y ha dicho a Judá y a Jerusalén: Delante de este altar adoraréis en Jerusalén? 23 Por tanto, ahora yo te ruego que des rehenes a mi señor, el rey de Asiria, y yo te daré dos mil caballos, si tú pudieres dar jinetes para ellos. 24 ¿Cómo, pues, harás volver el rostro de un capitán, al menor de los siervos de mi señor, aunque estés confiado en Egipto por sus carros y su gente de a caballo? 25 Además, ¿he venido yo ahora sin el SEÑOR a este lugar, para destruirlo? El SEÑOR me ha dicho: Sube a esta tierra, y destrúyela. 26 Entonces dijo Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, y Sebna y Joa, a Rabsaces: Te ruego que hables a tus siervos siriaco, porque nosotros lo entendemos, y no hables con nosotros judaico a oídos del pueblo que está sobre el muro. 27 Y Rabsaces les dijo: ¿Me ha enviado mi señor a ti y a tu señor para decir estas palabras, y no antes a los hombres que están sobre el muro, para comer su estiércol, y beber el agua de sus pies con vosotros? 28 Y se paró Rabsaces, y clamó a gran voz en judaico, y habló, diciendo: Oíd la palabra del gran rey, el rey de Asiria. 29 Así dijo el rey: No os engañe Ezequías, porque no os podrá librar de mi mano. 30 Y no os haga Ezequías confiar en el SEÑOR, diciendo: De cierto nos librará el SEÑOR, y esta ciudad no será entregada en mano del rey de Asiria. 31 No oigáis a Ezequías, porque así dice el rey de Asiria: Dadme presente, y salid a mí, y cada uno comerá de su vid, y de su higuera, y cada uno beberá las aguas de su pozo; 32 hasta que yo venga, y os lleve a una tierra como la vuestra, tierra de grano y de vino, tierra de pan y de viñas; tierra de olivas, de aceite, y de miel; y viviréis, y no moriréis. No oigáis a Ezequías, porque os engaña cuando dice: El SEÑOR nos librará. 33 ¿Por ventura han librado los dioses de los gentiles cada uno su tierra de la mano del rey de Asiria? 34 ¿Dónde está el dios de Hamat, y de Arfad? ¿Dónde está el dios de Sefarvaim, de Hena, y de Iva? ¿Pudieron éstos librar a Samaria de mi mano? 35 ¿Qué dios de todos los dioses de las provincias ha librado a su provincia de mi mano, para que libre el SEÑOR de mi mano a Jerusalén? 36 Y el pueblo calló, que no le respondieron palabra; porque había mandamiento del rey, el cual había dicho: No le respondáis. 37 Entonces Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, que era mayordomo, y Sebna el escriba, y Joa hijo de Asaf, canciller, vinieron a Ezequías, rotos sus vestidos, y le recitaron las palabras de Rabsaces.
ReinaValera(i) 1 EN el tercer año de Oseas hijo de Ela rey de Israel, comenzó á reinar Ezechîas hijo de Achâz rey de Judá. 2 Cuando comenzó á reinar era de venticinco años, y reinó en Jerusalem veintinueve años. El nombre de su madre fué Abi hija de Zachârías. 3 Hizo lo recto en ojos de Jehová, conforme á todas las cosas que había hecho David su padre. 4 El quitó los altos, y quebró las imágenes, y taló los bosques, é hizo pedazos la serpiente de bronce que había hecho Moisés, porque hasta entonces le quemaban perfumes los hijos de Israel; y llamóle por nombre Nehustán. 5 En Jehová Dios de Israel puso su esperanza: después ni antes de él no hubo otro como él en todos los reyes de Judá. 6 Porque se llegó á Jehová, y no se apartó de él, sino que guardó los mandamientos que Jehová prescribió á Moisés. 7 Y Jehová fué con él; y en todas las cosas á que salía prosperaba. El se rebeló contra el rey de Asiria, y no le sirvió. 8 Hirió también á los Filisteos hasta Gaza y sus términos, desde las torres de las atalayas hasta la ciudad fortalecida. 9 En el cuarto año del rey Ezechîas, que era el año séptimo de Oseas hijo de Ela rey de Israel, subió Salmanasar rey de los Asirios contra Samaria, y cercóla. 10 Y tomáronla al cabo de tres años: esto es, en el sexto año de Ezechîas, el cual era el año nono de Oseas rey de Israel, fué Samaria tomada. 11 Y el rey de Asiria traspuso á Israel á Asiria, y púsolos en Hala, y en Habor, junto al río de Gozán, y en las ciudades de los Medos: 12 Por cuanto no habían atendido la voz de Jehová su Dios, antes habían quebrantado su pacto; y todas las cosas que Moisés siervo de Jehová había mandado, ni las habían escuchado, ni puesto por obra. 13 Y á los catorce años del rey Ezechîas, subió Sennachêrib rey de Asiria contra todas las ciudades fuertes de Judá, y tomólas. 14 Entonces Ezechîas rey de Judá envió á decir al rey de Asiria en Lachîs: Yo he pecado: vuélvete de mí, y llevaré todo lo que me impusieres. Y el rey de Asiria impuso á Ezechîas rey de Judá trescientos talentos de plata, y treinta talentos de oro. 15 Dió por tanto Ezechîas toda la plata que fué hallada en la casa de Jehová, y en los tesoros de la casa real. 16 Entonces descompuso Ezechîas las puertas del templo de Jehová, y los quiciales que el mismo rey Ezechîas había cubierto de oro, y diólo al rey de Asiria. 17 Después el rey de Asiria envió al rey Ezechîas, desde Lachîs contra Jerusalem, á Thartán y á Rabsaris y á Rabsaces, con un grande ejército: y subieron, y vinieron á Jerusalem. Y habiendo subido, vinieron y pararon junto al conducto del estanque de arriba, que es en el camino de la heredad del batanero. 18 Llamaron luego al rey, y salió á ellos Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, que era mayordomo, y Sebna escriba, y Joah hijo de Asaph, canciller. 19 Y díjoles Rabsaces: Decid ahora á Ezechîas: Así dice el gran rey de Asiria: ¿Qué confianza es esta en que tú estás? 20 Dices, (por cierto palabras de labios): Consejo tengo y esfuerzo para la guerra. Mas ¿en qué confías, que te has rebelado contra mí? 21 He aquí tú confías ahora en este bordón de caña cascada, en Egipto, en el que si alguno se apoyare, entrarále por la mano, y se le pasará. Tal es Faraón rey de Egipto, para todos los que en él confían. 22 Y si me decís: Nosotros confiamos en Jehová nuestro Dios: ¿no es aquél cuyos altos y altares ha quitado Ezechîas, y ha dicho á Judá y á Jerusalem: Delante de este altar adoraréis en Jerusalem? 23 Por tanto, ahora yo te ruego que des rehenes á mi señor, el rey de Asiria, y yo te daré dos mil caballos, si tú pudieres dar jinetes para ellos. 24 ¿Cómo pues harás volver el rostro de un capitán el menor de los siervos de mi señor, aunque estés confiado en Egipto por sus carros y su gente de á caballo? 25 Además, ¿he venido yo ahora sin Jehová á este lugar, para destruirlo? Jehová me ha dicho: Sube á esta tierra, y destrúyela. 26 Entonces dijo Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, y Sebna y Joah, á Rabsaces: Ruégote que hables á tus siervos siriaco, porque nosotros lo entendemos, y no hables con nosotros judaico á oídos del pueblo que está sobre el muro. 27 Y Rabsaces les dijo: ¿Hame enviado mi señor á ti y á tu señor para decir estas palabras, y no antes á los hombres que están sobre el muro, para comer su estiércol, y beber el agua de sus pies con vosotros? 28 Paróse luego Rabsaces, y clamó á gran voz en judaico, y habló, diciendo: Oid la palabra del gran rey, el rey de Asiria. 29 Así ha dicho el rey: No os engañe Ezechîas, porque no os podrá librar de mi mano. 30 Y no os haga Ezechîas confiar en Jehová, diciendo: De cierto nos librará Jehová, y esta ciudad no será entregada en mano del rey de Asiria. 31 No oigáis á Ezechîas, porque así dice el rey de Asiria: Haced conmigo paz, y salid á mí, y cada uno comerá de su vid, y de su higuera, y cada uno beberá las aguas de su pozo; 32 Hasta que yo venga, y os lleve á una tierra como la vuestra, tierra de grano y de vino, tierra de pan y de viñas, tierra de olivas, de aceite, y de miel; y viviréis, y no moriréis. No oigáis á Ezechîas, porque os engaña cuando dice: Jehová nos librará. 33 ¿Acaso alguno de los dioses de las gentes ha librado su tierra de la mano del rey de Asiria? 34 ¿Dónde está el dios de Hamath, y de Arphad? ¿dónde el dios de Sepharvaim, de Hena, y de Hiva? ¿pudieron éstos librar á Samaria de mi mano? 35 ¿Qué dios de todos los dioses de las provincias ha librado á su provincia de mi mano, para que libre Jehová de mi mano á Jerusalem? 36 Y el pueblo calló, que no le respondieron palabra: porque había mandamiento del rey, el cual había dicho: No le respondáis. 37 Entonces Eliacim hijo de Hilcías, que era mayordomo, y Sebna el escriba, y Joah hijo de Asaph, canciller, vinieron á Ezechîas, rotos sus vestidos, y recitáronle las palabras de Rabsaces.

Albanian(i) 1 Në vitin e tretë të Hoseas, birit të Elahut, mbret i Izraelit, filloi të mbretërojë Ezekia, bir i Ashazit, mbret i Judës. 2 Ishte njëzet e pesë vjeç kur filloi të mbretërojë, dhe mbretëroi njëzet e nëntë vjet në Jeruzalem. E ëma quhej Abi; ishte bijë e Zakarias. 3 Ai bëri atë që ishte e drejtë në sytë e Zotit, sipas tërë atyre që kishte bërë Davidi, ati i tij. 4 I hoqi nga vendi vendet e larta, bëri copë-copë shtyllat e shenjta, rëzoi Asherahun dhe bëri copë-copë gjarpërin prej bronzi që e pat bërë Moisiu, sepse deri në atë kohë bijtë e Izraelit i kishin ofruar temjan dhe e quajti Nehushtan. 5 Ai pati besim tek Zoti, Perëndia i Izraelit; dhe mbas tij, midis tërë mbretërve të Judës, nuk pati asnjë si ai, as edhe midis atyre që kishin qenë para tij. 6 Mbeti i lidhur me Zotin, nuk pushoi së ndjekuri gjurmët e tij dhe respektoi urdhërimet që Zoti i kishte dhënë Moisiut. 7 Kështu Zoti mbeti pranë tij, dhe atij i dilnin mbarë të gjitha ndërmarrjet e tij. Ngriti krye kundër mbretit të Asirisë dhe nuk iu nënshtrua më; 8 mundi Filistejtë deri në Gaza dhe aty ku arrinte territori i tyre, nga kulla e rojes deri në qytetin e fortifikuar. 9 Vitin e katërt të mbretit Ezekia, që ishte viti i shtatë i Hoseas, birit të Elahut, mbret i Izraelit, Shalmaneseri, mbret i Asirisë, doli kundër Samarisë dhe e rrethoi. 10 Dhe pas tre vjetve e pushtoi; vitin e gjashtë të Ezekias, që ishte viti i nëntë i Hoseut, mbretit të Izraelit, Samaria u pushtua me forcë. 11 Mbreti i Asirisë i shpërnguli pastaj Izraelitët në Asiri dhe i vendosi në Halah dhe mbi Haborin, lumë i Gozanit, dhe në qytetet e Medasve, 12 sepse nuk i ishin bindur zërit të Zotit, Perëndisë të tyre, dhe kishin shkelur besëlidhjen e tij; tërë ato që Moisiu, shërbëtor i Zotit, kishte urdhëruar ata as e kishin dëgjuar, as e kishin vënë në praktikë. 13 Vitin e katërmbëdhjetë të mbretit Ezekia, Senasheribi, mbret i Asirisë, doli kundër tërë qyteteve të fortifikuara të Judës dhe i pushtoi. 14 Atëherë Ezekia, mbret i Judës, dërgoi t'i thotë mbretit të Asirisë në Lakish: "Kam mëkatuar; tërhiqu prej meje dhe kam për të pranuar të gjitha ato që do të më caktosh". Mbreti i Asirisë i caktoi Ezekias, mbretit të Judës, treqind talenta argjendi dhe tridhjetë talenta ari. 15 Kështu Ezekia dha tërë argjendin që gjendej në shtëpinë e Zotit dhe në thesaret e pallatit të mbretit. 16 Në atë kohë Ezekia hoqi nga portat e tempullit të Zotit dhe nga shtalkat arin me të cilin Ezekia, mbret i Judës, i kishte veshur dhe ia dha mbretit të Asirisë. 17 Atëherë mbreti i Asirisë i dërgoi Ezekias, nga Lakishi në Jeruzalem, Tartanin, Rabsarisin dhe Rabshakehun me një ushtri të madhe. Ata dolën dhe arritën në Jeruzalem. Kur arritën në Jeruzalem, shkuan 18 Kur thërritën mbretin, u ndalën përballë Eliakimi, bir i Hilkiahut, prefekti i pallatit, Shebna, sekretari, dhe Joahu, bir i Asafit, arkivisti. 19 Atëherë Rabshakehu u tha atyre: "Shkoni t'i thoni Ezekias: Kështu thotë i madhi, mbret i Asirisë: Ku e gjen gjithë këtë besim? 20 A mendon vallë që këshilla dhe forca për të bërë luftë janë vetëm fjalë të kota? Te kush ke besim kur ke ngritur krye kundër meje? 21 Ja tani, ti ke besim në përkrahjen e këtij kallami të thyer, që është Egjipti, që çan dorën e atij që mbështetet në të dhe e shpon. I tillë është pikërisht Faraoni, mbreti i Egjiptit, për tërë ata që kanë besim tek ai. 22 Ndofta do të më thoni: "Ne kemi besim tek Zoti, Perëndia ynë". A nuk është, vallë, po ai për të cilin Ezekia ka hequr vendet e larta dhe altarët, duke i thënë Judës dhe Jeruzalemit: "Ju do të adhuroni vetëm përpara këtij altari në Jeruzalem"? 23 Tani vër një bast me zotërinë tim, mbretin e Asirisë! Unë do të jap dy mijë kuaj, në rast se ti je në gjendje të gjesh kalorësit që u hipin. 24 Si mund ta bësh të tërhiqet qoftë edhe një kapiten të vetëm midis shërbëtorëve më të vegjël të zotërisë sime? Megjithatë ke besim tek Egjipti për të pasur qerre dhe kalorës. 25 Tani, a kam dalë, vallë, pa Zotin kundër këtij vendi për ta shkatërruar? Zoti më ka thënë: "Dil kundër këtij vendi dhe shkatërroje". 26 Atëherë Eliakimi, bir i Hilkiahut, Shebna dhe Joashi i thanë Rabshakehut: "Të lutem, folu shërbëtorëve të tu në gjuhën aramaike, se ne e kuptojmë; por mos na fol në gjuhën hebraike, sepse populli që është mbi muret dëgjon". 27 Por Rabshakehu iu përgjigj atyre në këtë mënyrë: "A më ka dërguar vallë zotëria im t'i them këto gjëra zotërisë sate dhe ty, apo më tepër njerëzve që qëndrojnë mbi muret, të dënuar të hanë jashtëqitjet e tyre dhe të pinë shurrën e tyre bashkë me ju?". 28 Atëherë Rabshakehu u ngrit dhe bërtiti me zë të lartë në gjuhën hebraishte, duke thënë: "Dëgjoni fjalën e të madhit, mbretit të Asirisë! 29 Kështu thotë mbreti: "Mos u mashtroni nga Ezekia, sepse ai nuk mund t'ju shpëtojë nga duart e mia; 30 të mos ju shtyjë Ezekia të keni besim tek Zoti, duke thënë: Me siguri Zoti do të na çlirojë dhe ky qytet nuk do t'i dorëzohet mbretit të Asirisë". 31 Mos dëgjoni Ezekian, sepse kështu thotë mbreti i Asirisë: "Bëni paqe me mua dhe dorëzohuni në duart e mia, kështu secili do të hajë frutat e vreshtit dhe të fikut të tij dhe do të pijë ujin e sternës së tij, 32 deri sa të vijë unë dhe t'ju çoj në një vend të ngjashëm me vendin tuaj, një vend që jep grurë dhe verë, një vend që ka bukë dhe vreshta, një vend me ullinj, vaj dhe mjaltë; dhe ju do të jetoni dhe nuk do të vdisni". Mos dëgjoni fjalët e Ezekias, që kërkon t'ju mashtrojë, duke thënë: "Zoti do të na çlirojë". 33 A ka çliruar ndonjë prej perëndive të fiseve vendin e tij nga duart e mbretit të Asirisë? 34 Ku janë perënditë e Hamathit dhe të Arpadit? Ku janë perënditë e Sefarvaimit, të Henas dhe të Ivahut? E kanë çliruar ata vallë Samarinë nga duart e mia? 35 Kush midis tërë perëndive të këtyre vendeve ka çliruar vendin e tij nga duart e mia, që Zoti të çlirojë Jeruzalemin nga duart e mia?". 36 Por populli heshti dhe nuk u përgjigj as edhe një fjalë, sepse urdhri i mbretit ishte: "Mos i jepni përgjigje". 37 Atëherë Eliakimi, bir i Hilkiahut, prefekt i pallatit, Shebna, sekretari, dhe Joahu, bir i Asafit, arkivisti, shkuan tek Ezekia me rroba të grisura dhe i referuan fjalët e Rabshekahut.
RST(i) 1 В третий год Осии, сына Илы, царя Израильского, воцарился Езекия, сын Ахаза, царя Иудейского. 2 Двадцати пяти лет был он, когда воцарился, и двадцать девять летцарствовал в Иерусалиме; имя матери его Ави, дочь Захарии. 3 И делал он угодное в очах Господних во всем так, как делал Давид,отец его; 4 он отменил высоты, разбил статуи, срубил дубраву и истребил медного змея, которого сделал Моисей, потому что до самых тех дней сыны Израилевы кадили ему и называли его Нехуштан. 5 На Господа Бога Израилева уповал он; и такого, как он, не бывало между всеми царями Иудейскими и после него и прежде него. 6 И прилепился он к Господу и не отступал от Него, и соблюдал заповеди Его, какие заповедал Господь Моисею. 7 И был Господь с ним: везде, куда он ни ходил, поступал он благоразумно. И отложился он от царя Ассирийского, и не стал служить ему. 8 Он поразил Филистимлян до Газы и в пределах ее, от сторожевой башни до укрепленного города. 9 В четвертый год царя Езекии, то есть в седьмой год Осии, сынаИлы, царя Израильского, пошел Салманассар, царь Ассирийский, на Самарию, и осадил ее, 10 и взял ее через три года; в шестой год Езекии, то есть в девятый год Осии, царя Израильского, взята Самария. 11 И переселил царь Ассирийский Израильтян в Ассирию, и поселил их вХалахе и в Хаворе, при реке Гозан, и в городах Мидийских, 12 за то, что они не слушали гласа Господа Бога своего и преступили завет Его, все, что заповедал Моисей раб Господень, они и не слушали и не исполняли. 13 В четырнадцатый год царя Езекии, пошел Сеннахирим, царь Ассирийский, против всех укрепленных городов Иуды и взял их. 14 И послал Езекия, царь Иудейский, к царю Ассирийскому в Лахиссказать: виновен я; отойди от меня; что наложишь на меня, я внесу. И наложил царь Ассирийский на Езекию, царя Иудейского, триста талантов серебра и тридцать талантов золота. 15 И отдал Езекия все серебро, какое нашлось в доме Господнем и всокровищницах дома царского. 16 В то время снял Езекия золото с дверей дома Господня и с дверных столбов, которые позолотил Езекия, царь Иудейский, и отдал его царю Ассирийскому. 17 И послал царь Ассирийский Тартана и Рабсариса и Рабсака из Лахиса к царю Езекии с большим войском в Иерусалим. И пошли, и пришли кИерусалиму; и пошли, и пришли, и стали у водопровода верхнего пруда, который на дороге поля белильничьего. 18 И звали они царя. И вышел к ним Елиаким, сын Хелкиин, начальникдворца, и Севна писец, и Иоах, сын Асафов, дееписатель. 19 И сказал им Рабсак: скажите Езекии: так говорит царь великий, царь Ассирийский: что это за упование, на которое ты уповаешь? 20 Ты говорил только пустые слова: для войны нужны совет и сила. Ныне же на кого тыуповаешь, что отложился от меня? 21 Вот, ты думаешь опереться на Египет, на эту трость надломленную, которая, если кто опрется на нее, войдет ему в руку и проколет ее. Таков фараон, царь Египетский, для всех уповающих на него. 22 А если вы скажете мне: „на Господа Бога нашего мы уповаем", то на того ли, которого высоты и жертвенники отменил Езекия, и сказал Иуде и Иерусалиму: „пред симтолько жертвенником поклоняйтесь в Иерусалиме"? 23 Итак вступи в союз с господином моимцарем Ассирийским: я дам тебе две тысячи коней, можешь ли достать себе всадников на них? 24 Как тебе одолеть и одного вождя из малейших слуг господина моего? И уповаешь на Египет ради колесниц и коней? 25 Притом же разве я без воли Господней пошел на место сие, чтобы разорить его? Господь сказал мне: „пойди на землю сию и разори ее". 26 И сказал Елиаким, сын Хелкиин, и Севна и Иоах Рабсаку: говори рабам твоим по-арамейски, потому что понимаем мы, а не говори с нами по-иудейски вслух народа, который на стене. 27 И сказал им Рабсак: разве только к господину твоему и к тебе послал меня господин мой сказать сии слова? Нет, также и к людям, которые сидят на стене, чтобы есть помет свой и пить мочу свою с вами. 28 И встал Рабсак и возгласил громким голосом по-иудейски, и говорил, и сказал: слушайте слово царя великого, царяАссирийского! 29 Так говорит царь: пусть не обольщает вас Езекия, ибо он не можетвас спасти от руки моей; 30 и пусть не обнадеживает вас Езекия Господом, говоря: „спасет насГосподь и не будет город сей отдан в руки царя Ассирийского". 31 Не слушайте Езекии. Ибо так говорит царь Ассирийский: примиритесь со мною и выйдите ко мне, и пусть каждый ест плоды виноградной лозы своей и смоковницы своей, и пусть каждый пьет воду из своего колодезя, 32 пока я не приду и не возьму вас в землю такую же, как и ваша земля, в землю хлеба и вина, в землю плодов и виноградников, в землю масличных дерев и меда, ибудете жить, и не умрете. Не слушайте же Езекии, который обольщает вас, говоря: „Господь спасет нас". 33 Спасли ли боги народов, каждый свою землю, от руки царя Ассирийского? 34 Где боги Емафа и Арпада? Где боги Сепарваима, Ены и Иввы? Спасли ли они Самарию от руки моей? 35 Кто из всех богов земель сих спас землю свою от руки моей? Так неужели Господь спасет Иерусалим от руки моей? 36 И молчал народ и не отвечали ему ни слова, потому что было приказание царя: „не отвечайте ему". 37 И пришел Елиаким, сын Хелкиин, начальник дворца, и Севна писец и Иоах, сын Асафов, дееписатель, к Езекии в разодранных одеждах, и пересказали ему слова Рабсаковы.

Bulgarian(i) 1 В третата година на израилевия цар Осия, сина на Ила, се възцари Езекия, синът на юдовия цар Ахаз. 2 Той беше на двадесет и пет години, когато се възцари, и царува двадесет и девет години в Ерусалим. Името на майка му беше Авия, дъщеря на Захария. 3 Той върши това, което беше право пред ГОСПОДА, точно както беше правил баща му Давид. 4 Събори високите места, изпотроши кумирите, изсече ашерите и строши медната змия, която Мойсей беше направил, защото дори до онова време израилевите синове й кадяха; и я нарече Нехущан . 5 Той се упова на ГОСПОДА, Израилевия Бог. И след него нямаше подобен на него между всичките юдови царе, нито пък между онези, които бяха преди него. 6 Той се привърза към ГОСПОДА и не престана да Го следва, и пазеше заповедите Му, които ГОСПОД беше дал на Мойсей. 7 И ГОСПОД беше с него — където и да излизаше, имаше успех. И въстана против асирийския цар и вече не му слугуваше. 8 Той разби филистимците до Газа и околностите й, от стражарска кула до укрепен град. 9 А в четвъртата година на цар Езекия, която беше седмата година на израилевия цар Осия, сина на Ила, асирийският цар Салманасар се изкачи против Самария и я обсади. 10 И след три години я превзе. В шестата година на Езекия, която беше деветата година на израилевия цар Осия, Самария беше превзета. 11 И асирийският цар отведе Израил в плен в Асирия и ги засели в Ала и в Авор при реката Гозан, и в мидийските градове, 12 защото не послушаха гласа на ГОСПОДА, своя Бог, и престъпиха завета Му — всичко, което ГОСПОДНИЯТ слуга Мойсей беше заповядал — не послушаха и не го извършиха. 13 А в четиринадесетата година на цар Езекия асирийският цар Сенахирим се изкачи против всичките укрепени градове на Юда и ги превзе. 14 Тогава юдовият цар Езекия изпрати до асирийския цар в Лахис да кажат: Съгреших! Върни се от мен и каквото ми наложиш, ще го нося. И асирийският цар наложи на юдовия цар Езекия триста таланта сребро и тридесет таланта злато. 15 И Езекия даде цялото сребро, което се намери в ГОСПОДНИЯ дом и в съкровищата на царската къща. 16 В онова време Езекия откова златото от вратите на ГОСПОДНИЯ храм и от колоните, които той, юдовият цар Езекия, беше обковал със злато, и го даде на асирийския цар. 17 Но асирийският цар изпрати от Лахис тартана, рапсариса и рапсака с голяма войска срещу цар Езекия в Ерусалим. И те се изкачиха и дойдоха в Ерусалим. И като се изкачиха, дойдоха и застанаха при водопровода на горния водоем, който е по пътя към тепавичарската нива. 18 И извикаха към царя. И управителят на царския дом Елиаким, синът на Хелкия, и писарят Шевна, и летописецът Йоах, синът на Асаф, излязоха при тях. 19 Тогава рапсакът им каза: Кажете сега на Езекия: Така казва великият цар, асирийският цар: Каква е тази надежда, на която се уповаваш? 20 Ти казваш: Имам съвет и сила за воюване. Но това са само празни думи. На кого се надяваш сега, че си въстанал против мен? 21 Ето, ти се надяваш на онази строшена тръстикова пръчка, на Египет, на която, ако се опре някой, ще се забучи в ръката му и ще я промуши. Такъв е египетският цар, фараонът, за всички, които се надяват на него. 22 Но ако ми кажете: На ГОСПОДА, нашия Бог, се уповаваме! — то не е ли Той онзи, чиито високи места и жертвеници премахна Езекия, като каза на Юда и Ерусалим: Пред този олтар в Ерусалим се покланяйте? 23 И така, дай залог на господаря ми, асирийския цар, и аз ще ти дам две хиляди коня, ако можеш от своя страна да поставиш на тях ездачи. 24 Но как би отблъснал ти и един военачалник измежду най-низшите слуги на господаря ми? Но ти се уповаваш на Египет за колесници и за конници! 25 А аз без ГОСПОДА ли се изкачих сега срещу това място, за да го съсипя? ГОСПОД ми каза: Изкачи се против тази земя и я съсипи! 26 Тогава Елиаким, синът на Хелкия, и Шевна, и Йоах казаха на рапсака: Молим те, говори на слугите си на арамейски, защото го разбираме. Не ни говори на юдейски, че да чува народът, който е на стената! 27 Но рапсакът им каза: Господарят ми само при твоя господар и при теб ли ме е изпратил да говоря тези думи? Не ме ли е изпратил при мъжете, които седят на стената, за да ядат заедно с вас изпражненията си и да пият пикочта си? 28 Тогава рапсакът застана и извика със силен глас на юдейски и говори и каза: Слушайте думата на великия цар, асирийския цар: 29 Така казва царят: Да не ви мами Езекия! Защото той няма да може да ви избави от ръката му. 30 И да не ви кара Езекия да се уповавате на ГОСПОДА, като казва: ГОСПОД непременно ще ни избави и този град няма да бъде предаден в ръката на асирийския цар! 31 Не слушайте Езекия, защото така казва асирийският цар: Направете мир с мен и излезте при мен, и яжте всеки от лозето си и всеки от смокинята си, и пийте всеки от водата на кладенеца си, 32 докато дойда и ви заведа в земя като вашата земя, земя на жито и вино, земя на хляб и лозя, земя на маслини и мед, за да живеете и да не умрете. Не слушайте Езекия като ви мами и казва: ГОСПОД ще ни избави. 33 Някой от боговете на народите избавил ли е въобще земята си от ръката на асирийския цар? 34 Къде са боговете на Емат и Арфад? Къде са боговете на Сефаруим, на Ена и на Ава? Избавиха ли те Самария от ръката ми? 35 Кои измежду всичките богове на страните са избавили страната си от ръката ми, че ГОСПОД да избави Ерусалим от ръката ми? 36 А народът мълчеше и не му отговори нито дума, защото царят беше заповядал и казал: Да не му отговаряте! 37 И управителят на царския дом Елиаким, синът на Хелкия, и писарят Шевна и летописецът Йоах, синът на Асаф, дойдоха при Езекия с раздрани дрехи и му съобщиха думите на рапсака.
Croatian(i) 1 Treće godine kraljevanja Hošee, sina Elina, u Izraelu, postao je judejskim kraljem Ezekija, sin Ahazov. 2 Bilo mu je dvadeset i pet godina kad se zakraljio. Kraljevao je dvadeset i devet godina u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Abija, Zaharijina kći. 3 Činio je što je pravo u očima Jahvinim, sasvim kao njegov otac David. 4 On je uklonio uzvišice, srušio je stupove, sasjekao je ašere i razbio zmiju od mjedi koju bijaše načinio Mojsije. Izraelci su joj sve do tada prinosili žrtve. Zvali su je Nehuštan. 5 Pouzdavao se u Jahvu, Boga Izraelova. Ni prije njega ni poslije njega ne bijaše mu ravna među kraljevima judejskim. 6 Prionuo je uz Jahvu i nikada se nije okrenuo od njega. Držao je sve zapovijedi što ih je Jahve dao preko Mojsija. 7 I Jahve bijaše s njim, pomagaše ga u svim njegovim pothvatima. Pobunio se protiv asirskog kralja i nije mu više bio podložan. 8 On je potukao Filistejce do Gaze, opustošio njihovo područje od stražarskih kula sve do utvrđenih gradova. 9 Četvrte godine vladavine Ezekijine, a to je bila sedma godina kraljevanja izraelskog kralja Hošee, sina Elina, napade asirski kralj Salmanasar Samariju i opsjede je. 10 Osvojio ju je nakon tri godine. Šeste godine Ezekijine vladavine, a devete godine izraelskog kralja Hošee, pala je Samarija. 11 Asirski je kralj odveo Izraelce u sužanjstvo u Asiriju i naselio ih u Halahu, na Haboru, rijeci gozanskoj, i u medijskim gradovima. 12 Bijaše to stoga što nisu poslušali glas Jahve, Boga svoga, i što su prekršili njegov Savez i sve što im je naredio Mojsije, sluga Jahvin. Nisu ništa slušali niti vršili. 13 Četrnaeste godine Ezekijina kraljevanja asirski kralj Sanherib napade utvrđene judejske gradove i osvoji ih. 14 Tada judejski kralj Ezekija poruči asirskom kralju u Lakiš: "Pogriješio sam! Obustavi svoje napade na me. Snosit ću sve što mi nametneš." Asirski kralj zatraži od Ezekije, judejskog kralja, tri stotine talenata srebra i trideset talenata zlata. 15 I dade Ezekija sve srebro što se našlo u Domu Jahvinu i u riznicama kraljevskog dvora. 16 U to je vrijeme Ezekija obio vrata i vratnice na Svetištu Jahvinu što ih bijaše pozlatio on sam, judejski kralj Ezekija, i posla to asirskom kralju. 17 Asirski je kralj poslao iz Lakiša u Jeruzalem kralju Ezekiji vrhovnog zapovjednika vojske, velikog dvoranina i peharnika s jakom vojskom. Krenuše oni, a kad su stigli u Jeruzalem, stadoše kod vodovoda Gornjeg ribnjaka, na putu u Valjarevo polje. 18 Oni pozvaše kralja. Pred njim je izašao upravitelj dvora Elijakim, sin Hilkijin, pisar Šebna i savjetnik Joah, sin Asafov. 19 Veliki peharnik reče im: "Kažite Ezekiji: 'Ovako veli veliki kralj, kralj asirski: kakvo je to pouzdanje u koje se uzdaš? 20 Misliš li da su prazne riječi već savjet i snaga za rat? U koga se uzdaš da si se pobunio protiv mene? 21 Eto, oslanjaš se na Egipat, na slomljenu trsku koja probada i prodire dlan onomu tko se na nju nasloni. Takav je faraon, kralj egipatski, svima koji se uzdaju u njega.' 22 Možda ćete mi odgovoriti: 'Uzdamo se u Jahvu, Boga svojega.' Ali nije li njemu Ezekija uklonio uzvišice i žrtvenike i zapovjedio Judejcima i Jeruzalemu: 'Samo se pred ovim žrtvenikom u Jeruzalemu klanjajte.' 23 Hajde, okladi se s mojim gospodarom, asirskim kraljem: dat ću ti dvije tisuće konja ako mogneš naći jahače za njih! 24 Kako ćeš onda odoljeti jednome jedinom od najmanjih slugu moga gospodara? Ali se ti uzdaš u Egipat da će ti dati kola i konjanika. 25 Naposljetku, zar sam ja mimo volju Jahvinu krenuo protiv ovoga mjesta da ga razorim? Sam mi je Jahve rekao: 'Idi na tu zemlju i razori je!'" 26 Elijakim, Šebna i Joah rekoše velikom peharniku: "Molimo te, govori svojim slugama aramejski, jer mi razumijemo; ne govori s nama judejski da čuje narod koji je na zidinama!" 27 Ali im veliki peharnik odgovori: "Zar me moj gospodar poslao da ovo kažem tvome gospodaru i tebi, a ne upravo onim ljudima koji sjede na zidinama, osuđeni da s vama jedu svoju nečist i piju svoju mokraću?" 28 Tada se veliki peharnik uspravi i u sav glas povika na judejskom ove riječi: "Čujte riječ velikoga kralja, kralja asirskog! 29 Ovako veli kralj: 'Neka vas Ezekija ne zavarava, jer vas ne može izbaviti iz moje ruke. 30 Neka vas Ezekija ne hrabri pouzdanjem u Jahvu govoreći: Jahve će nas sigurno izbaviti, ovaj grad neće pasti u ruke kralju asirskom.' 31 Ne slušajte Ezekije, jer ovako veli asirski kralj: 'Sklopite mir sa mnom, predajte mi se, pa neka svaki od vas jede plodove iz svoga vinograda i sa svoje smokve i neka pije vode iz svojega studenca 32 dok ne dođem i ne odvedem vas u zemlju kao što je vaša, u zemlju pšenice i mošta, u zemlju kruha i vinograda, u zemlju ulja i meda da biste živjeli i da ne pomrete. Ne dajte da vas Ezekija zaludi govoreći vam: Jahve će vas izbaviti.' 33 Jesu li bogovi drugih naroda izbavili svoje zemlje iz ruku asirskoga kralja? 34 Gdje su bogovi hamatski i arpadski, gdje su bogovi sefarvajimski, henski i ivski, gdje su bogovi samarijski da izbave Samariju iz ruke moje? 35 Koji su među svim bogovima tih zemalja izbavili svoju zemlju iz moje ruke da bi Jahve izbavio Jeruzalem iz ruke moje?" 36 Šutjeli su i ni riječi mu nisu odgovorili, jer kralj bijaše zapovjedio: "Ne odgovarajte mu!" 37 Upravitelj dvora Elijakim, sin Hilkijin, pisar Šebna i savjetnik Joah, sin Asafov, dođoše k Ezekiji, razdrijevši haljine, i saopćiše mu riječi velikoga peharnika
BKR(i) 1 Stalo se pak léta třetího Ozee syna Ela, krále Izraelského, kraloval Ezechiáš syn Achasa, krále Judského. 2 V pětmecítma letech byl, když počal kralovati, a dvadceti devět let kraloval v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho bylo Abi, dcera Zachariášova. 3 Ten činil, což jest dobrého před očima Hospodinovýma, všecko tak, jakž činil David otec jeho. 4 On zkazil výsosti a stroskotal obrazy, a háje posekal, a ztloukl hada měděného, jehož byl udělal Mojžíš; nebo až do těch dnů synové Izraelští kadívali jemu, a nazval jej Nechustam. 5 V Hospodinu Bohu Izraelském doufal, a nebylo po něm jemu rovného mezi všemi králi Judskými, i z těch, kteříž byli před ním. 6 Nebo se přídržel Hospodina, aniž se uchýlil od něho, a ostříhal přikázaní jeho,kteráž byl přikázal Hospodin Mojžíšovi. 7 A byl Hospodin s ním; k čemuž se koli obrátil, šťastně se mu vedlo. Zprotivil se pak králi Assyrskému, a nesloužil jemu. 8 On porazil Filistinské až do Gázy a končin jeho, od věže strážných až do města hrazeného. 9 Stalo se pak léta čtvrtého krále Ezechiáše, (jenž byl sedmý rok Ozee syna Ela, krále Izraelského), vytáhl Salmanazar král Assyrský proti Samaří a oblehl ji. 10 I vzali ji při konci léta třetího; léta šestého Ezechiášova, (jenž byl rok devátý Ozee krále Izraelského), vzata jest Samaří. 11 I zavedl král Assyrský Izraele do Assyrie, a osadil jej v Chelach a v Chabor při potoku Gozan, a v městech Médských, 12 Proto že neposlouchali hlasu Hospodina Boha svého, ale přestupovali smlouvu jeho, i všecko to, což přikázal Mojžíš služebník Hospodinův, tak že ani poslechnouti ani činiti nechtěli. 13 Potom čtrnáctého léta krále Ezechiáše přitáhl Senacherib král Assyrský proti všechněm městům Judským hrazeným, a zdobýval jich. 14 Tedy poslal Ezechiáš král Judský k králi Assyrskému do Lachis, řka: Zhřešilť jsem, odtáhni ode mne; cožkoli na mne vzložíš, ponesu. I uložil král Assyrský Ezechiášovi králi Judskému tři sta centnéřů stříbra a třidceti centnéřů zlata. 15 I dal Ezechiáš všecky peníze, kteréž jsou nalezeny v domě Hospodinově a v pokladích domu královského. 16 Toho času obloupal Ezechiáš dvéře chrámu Hospodinova, i sloupy, kteréž byl obložil Ezechiáš král Judský, a dal je králi Assyrskému. 17 A však poslal král Assyrský Tartana a Rabsara a Rabsace z Lachis k králi Ezechiášovi s vojskem velikým k Jeruzalému. Kteříž vytáhše, přijeli k Jeruzalému, a přitáhše, přitrhli a položili se u struhy rybníka hořejšího, kteráž jest podlé cesty dlážené při poli valchářovu. 18 A když volali na krále, vyšel k nim Eliakim syn Helkiášův, kterýž byl správce domu, a Sobna písař, a Joach syn Azafův kancléř. 19 I mluvil k nim Rabsace: Povězte medle Ezechiášovi: Toto praví král veliký, král Assyrský: Jakéž jest to doufání, na kterémž se zakládáš? 20 Mluvils, (ale slova rtů svých), že jest rady i síly k válce dosti. V kohož tedy nyní doufáš, že mi se protivíš? 21 Aj, nyní zpolehl jsi na hůl třtinovou, a to ještě nalomenou, na Egypt, na niž zpodepřel-li by se kdo, pronikne ruku jeho a probodne ji. Takovýť jest Farao král Egyptský všechněm, kteříž doufají v něho. 22 Pakli mi díte: V Hospodina Boha svého doufáme: zdaliž on není ten, jehož Ezechiáš pobořil výsosti i oltáře, a přikázal Judovi i Jeruzalému, řka: Před tímto oltářem klaněti se budete v Jeruzalémě. 23 Nyní tedy, založ se medle se pánem mým, králem Assyrským, a dámť dva tisíce koní, budeš-li moci míti, kdo by na nich jeli? 24 I jakž bys tedy odolati mohl jednomu knížeti z nejmenších služebníků pána mého, ačkoli máš doufání v Egyptu pro vozy a jezdce? 25 Přesto, zdali bez Hospodina přitáhl jsem proti místu tomuto, abych je zkazil? Hospodin řekl mi: Táhni proti zemi té a zkaz ji. 26 I řekl Eliakim syn Helkiášův a Sobna a Joach Rabsacovi: Mluv medle k služebníkům svým Syrsky, však rozumíme, a nemluv k nám Židovsky před lidem tímto, kterýž jest na zdech. 27 I odpověděl jim Rabsace: Zdaliž ku pánu tvému a k tobě poslal mne pán můj, abych mluvil slova tato? Však k mužům těm, kteříž jsou na zdech, aby lejna svá jedli, a moč svůj spolu s vámi pili. 28 A tak stoje Rabsace, volal hlasem velikým, Židovsky mluvě a řka: Slyšte slovo krále velikého, krále Assyrského. 29 Toto praví král: Nechť vás nesvodí Ezechiáš, neboť nebude moci vás vysvoboditi z ruky mé. 30 A nechť vám nevelí Ezechiáš doufati v Hospodina, řka: Zajisté vysvobodí nás Hospodin, a nebudeť dáno město toto v ruku krále Assyrského. 31 Neposlouchejtež Ezechiáše, nebo takto praví král Assyrský: Učiňte se mnou smlouvu, a vyjděte ke mně, a jezte jeden každý z vinice své a z fíku svého, a píte jeden každý vodu z čisterny své, 32 Dokudž nepřijdu a nepřenesu vás do země podobné zemi vaší, do země úrodné, země chleba a vinic, země olivoví, oleje a medu, a budete živi a nezemřete. Neposlouchejtež Ezechiáše, neboť vás svodí, řka: Hospodin vysvobodí nás. 33 Zdaliž mohli vysvoboditi bohové národů jeden každý zemi svou z ruky krále Assyrského? 34 Kdež jsou bohové Emat a Arfad? Kde jsou bohové Sefarvaim, Ana a Ava? Zdaliž jsou vysvobodili Samaří z ruky mé? 35 Kteří jsou mezi všemi bohy těch zemí, ješto by vysvobodili zemi svou z ruky mé? Aby pak Hospodin vysvoboditi mohl Jeruzalém z ruky mé? 36 Lid pak mlčel, a neodpověděl mu žádného slova; nebo takové bylo rozkázaní královo, řkoucí: Neodpovídejte jemu. 37 Přišli tedy Eliakim syn Helkie, kterýž byl správcím domu, a Sobna písař, a Joach syn Azafův kancléř k Ezechiášovi, majíce roucho roztržené, a oznámili jemu slova Rabsacova.
Danish(i) 1 Og det skete i Israels Konge Hoseas's, Elas Søns, tredje Aar, da blev Ezekias, Akas's, Judas Konges, Søn, Konge. 2 Han var fem og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, der han blev Konge, og regerede ni og tyve Aar i Jerusalem, og hans Moders Navn var Abi, Sakarias Datter. 3 Og han gjorde det, som var ret for HERRENS Øjne efter alt det, som hans Fader David gjorde. 4 Han borttog Højene og sønderbrød Støtterne og udryddede Astartebillederne og sønderknuste den Kobberslange, som Mose havde gj ort, fordi Israels Børn gjorde Røgoffer til den indtil denne Dag, og man kaldte den Nekuskthan. 5 Han forlod sig paa HERREN, Israels Gud, saa at efter ham var ingen som han iblandt alle Judas Konger, ej heller af dem, som havde været for ham. 6 Thi han hang ved HERREN, veg ikke fra ham og holdt hans Bud, som HERREN bød Mose. 7 Og HERREN var med ham, og han handlede klogelig paa hvert Sted, hvor han drog ud; tilmed faldt han fra Kongen af Assyrien og tjente ham ikke. 8 Han slog Filisterne indtil Gaza og dens Landemærke, fra Vogternes; Taarn indtil den faste Stad. 9 Og det skete i Kong Ezekias: fjerde Aar, hvilket var det syvende Hoseas's, Elas Søns, Israels Konges Aar, at Salmanasser, Kongen af As syrien, drog op imod Samaria og belejrede den. 10 Og de indtoge den, da tre Aar vare til Ende, i Ezekias; sjette Aar, det er Hoseas's, Israel Konges, niende Aar, da blev Samaria indtagen. 11 Og Kongen af Assyrien førte Israel bort til Assyrien og satte dem i Hala og i Habor og ved Floden Gosan og i Medernes Stæder; 12 fordi de ikke havde hørt HERREN, deres Guds, Røst, men overtraadte hans Pagt, nemlig alt det, som Mose, HERRENS Tjener, havde budet, og de havde ikke hørt det, ej heller gjort det. 13 Og i Kong Ezekias's fjortende Aar drog Senakerib, Kongen af Assyrien, op imod alle Judas faste Stæder og indtog dem. 14 Da sendte Ezekias, Judas Konge, til Kongen af Assyrien, til Lakis og lod sige: Jeg har syndet, vend tilbage fra mig, jeg vil bære, hvad du lægger paa mig; da paalagde Kongen af Assyrien Ezekias, Judas Konge, tre Hundrede Centner og tredive Centner Guld. 15 Saa gav Ezekias alt det Sølv, som fandtes i HERRENS Hus og i Kongens Hus's Skatkamre. 16 Paa den samme Tid afbrød Ezekias Guldet af Dørene paa HERRENS Tempel og af Dørstolperne, som Ezekias, Judas Konge, havde ladet beslaa, og gav Kongen af Assyrien det. 17 Da sendte Kongen af Assyrien Thartan og Rabsaris og Rabsake fra Lakis til Kong Ezekias med en svar Hær til Jerusalem; og de droge op og kom til Jerusalem og droge op og kom og stode ved den øverste Dams Vandledning, som er ved den alfare Vej, til Blegerens Ager. 18 Og de kaldte ad Kongen; da gik Eliakim, Hilkias Søn, som var Hovmester, og Sebna, Kansleren, og Ioa, Asafs Søn, Historieskriveren ud til dem. 19 Og Rabsake sagde til dem: Siger til Ezekias: Saa siger den store Konge, Kongen af Assyrien: Hvad er det for en Tillid, som du forlader dig paa? 20 Du siger - dog det er ikkun Læbers Ord - at der er Klogskab og Styrke til Krigen; nu, paa hvem forlader du dig, eftersom du er affalden fra mig? 21 Nu se, du forlader dig paa denne brudte Rørkæp, paa Ægypten; støtter nogen sig paa den, da gaar den ind i hans Haand og borer den igennem; saaledes er Farao, Kongen i Ægypten, for alle dem, som forlade sig paa ham. 22 Og om I ville sige til mig: Vi forlade os paa HERREN vor Gud, er det da ikke ham, hvis Høje og hvis Altre Ezekias har borttaget, idet han sagde til Juda og Jerusalem: For dette Alter skulle I tilbede i Jerusalem? 23 Og nu, indgaa Væddemaal med min Herre, med Kongen af Assyrien, saa vil jeg give dig to Tusinde Heste, om du kan skaffe dig Ryttere til dem. 24 Hvorledes vilde du da drive en Fyrstes Magt tilbage, hørte han end til min Herres ringeste Tjenere? men du forlader dig paa Ægypten for Vognes og for Rytteres Skyld. 25 Nu, mon jeg vel uden HERREN er dragen op imod dette Sted for at ødelægge det? HERREN sagde til mig: Drag op imod dette Land og ødelæg det! 26 Da sagde Eliakim, Hilkias Søn, og Sebna og Ioa til Rabsake: Kære, tal til dine Tjenere paa Syrisk, thi vi forstaa det, og tal ikke med os paa Jødisk for Folkets Øren, som er paa Muren. 27 Men Rabsake sagde til dem: Har min Herre sendt mig til din Herre eller til dig for at tale disse Ord? mon ikke og til de Mænd som sidde paa Muren at æde deres eget Skarn og drikke ikke deres eget Vand med eder? 28 Saa stod Rabsake og raabte med høj Røst paa jødisk og talte og sagde: Hører den store Konges Ord, Kongens af Assyrien! 29 Saa sagde Kongen: Lader ikke Ezekias bedrage eder; thi han formaar ikke at redde eder af hans Haand. 30 Og lader ikke Ezekias faa eder til at forlade eder paa HERREN, idet han siger: HERREN skal visselig fri os, og denne Stad skal ikke gives i Kongen af Assyriens Haand. 31 Lyder ikke Ezekias ad; thi saa sagde Kongen af Assyrien: Slutter Fred med mig og gaar ud til mig og æder hver af sit Vintræ og hver af sit Figentræ og drikker hver Vand af sin Brønd, 32 indtil jeg kommer og henter eder til et Land som eders Land, et Land, i hvilket der er Korn og Vin, et Land, i hvilket der er Brød og Vingaarde, et Land, i hvilket der er Olietræer, Olie og Honning: Saa skulle I blive ved Live og ikke dø; og lyder ikke Ezekias ad, naar han tilskynder eder og siger: HERREN skal fri os. 33 Have Hedningernes Guder vel friet hver sit Land fra Kongen af Assyriens Haand? 34 Hvor ere de Guder af Hamath og Arfad? hvor ere de Guder af Sefarvajm, Hena og Iva mon de have reddet Samaria af min Haand? 35 Hvo iblandt alle Guderne i Landene ere de, som have friet deres Land af min Haand, at HERREN skulde redde Jerusalem fra min Haand? 36 Og Folket tav og svarede ham ikke et Ord; thi det var Kongens Befaling, som havde sagt: Svarer ham intet! 37 Da kom Eliakim Hilkias Søn, som var Hovmester, og Sebna, Kansleren, og Ioa, Asafs Søn, Historieskriveren, til Ezekias med sønderrevne Klæder, og de gave ham Rabsakes Ord til Kende.

  16 H6256 那時 H3063 ，猶大 H4428 王 H2396 希西家 H3068 將耶和華 H1964 殿 H1817 門 H6823 上的金子和他自己包在 H547 柱上的金子 H7112 都刮下來 H5414 ，給了 H804 亞述 H4428 王。
  17 H804 亞述 H4428 王 H3923 從拉吉 H7971 差遣 H8661 他珥探 H7249 、拉伯撒利 H7262 ，和拉伯沙基 H3515 率領大 H3389 軍往耶路撒冷 H2396 ，到希西家 H4428 王 H5927 那裡去。他們上 H935 到 H3389 耶路撒冷 H5975 ，就站在 H5945 上 H1295 池 H8585 的水溝 H3526 旁，在漂布 H7704 地 H4546 的大路上。
  18 H7121 他們呼叫 H4428 王 H2518 的時候，就有希勒家 H1121 的兒子 H1004 家宰 H471 以利亞敬 H5608 ，並書記 H7644 舍伯那 H623 和亞薩 H1121 的兒子 H2142 史官 H3098 約亞 H3318 ，出來見他們。
  19 H7262 拉伯沙基 H559 說 H559 ：你們去告訴 H2396 希西家 H559 說 H804 ，亞述 H1419 大 H4428 王 H982 如此說：你所倚靠的 H986 有甚麼可仗賴的呢？
  20 H559 你說 H4421 有打仗 H6098 的計謀 H1369 和能力 H982 ，我看不過是虛話。你到底倚靠 H4775 誰纔背叛我呢？
  21 H982 看哪，你所倚靠的 H4714 埃及 H7533 是那壓傷的 H7070 葦 H4938 杖 H376 ；人 H5564 若靠 H5344 這杖，就必刺透 H3709 他的手 H4714 。埃及 H4428 王 H6547 法老 H982 向一切倚靠他的人也是這樣。
  22 H559 你們若對我說 H982 ：我們倚靠 H3068 耶和華 H430 ─我們的　神 H2396 ，希西家 H430 豈不是將　神 H1116 的邱壇 H4196 和祭壇 H5493 廢去 H3063 ，且對猶大 H3389 和耶路撒冷 H559 的人說 H3389 ：你們當在耶路撒冷 H4196 這壇 H6440 前 H7812 敬拜麼？
  23 H6148 現在你把當頭 H113 給我主 H804 亞述 H4428 王 H5414 ，我給 H505 你二千 H5483 匹馬 H7392 ，看你這一面騎馬的人夠不夠。
  24 H113 若不然，怎能打敗我主 H5650 臣僕 H6996 中最小的 H6346 軍長 H982 呢？你竟倚靠 H7393 埃及的戰車 H6571 馬兵麼？
  25 H5927 現在我上來 H7843 攻擊毀滅 H4725 這地 H1107 ，豈沒有 H3068 耶和華 H3068 的意思麼？耶和華 H559 吩咐我說 H5927 ：你上去 H7843 攻擊毀滅 H776 這地罷！
  26 H2518 希勒家 H1121 的兒子 H471 以利亞敬 H7644 和舍伯那 H3098 ，並約亞 H7262 ，對拉伯沙基 H559 說 H762 ：求你用亞蘭言語 H5650 和僕人 H1696 說話 H8085 ，因為我們懂得 H3066 ；不要用猶大言語 H1696 和我們說話 H5971 ，達到城上百姓 H241 的耳中。
  27 H7262 拉伯沙基 H559 說 H113 ：我主 H7971 差遣 H113 我來，豈是單對你和你的主 H1696 說 H1697 這些話 H3427 麼？不也是對這些坐在 H398 城上、要與你們一同吃 H6675 H2755 自己糞 H8354 、喝 H4325 H7272 H7890 自己尿 H582 的人說麼？
  28 H7262 於是拉伯沙基 H5975 站著 H3066 ，用猶大言語 H1419 大 H6963 聲 H7121 喊著 H1696 H559 說 H8085 ：你們當聽 H804 亞述 H1419 大 H4428 王 H1697 的話！
  29 H4428 王 H559 如此說 H2396 ：你們不要被希西家 H5377 欺哄了 H3201 ；因他不能 H5337 救你們脫離 H3027 我的手。
  30 H2396 也不要聽希西家 H982 使你們倚靠 H3068 耶和華 H559 ，說 H3068 耶和華 H5337 必要 H5337 拯救 H5892 我們，這城 H5414 必不交在 H804 亞述 H4428 王 H3027 的手中。
  31 H8085 不要聽 H2396 希西家 H804 的話！因亞述 H4428 王 H559 如此說 H6213 H1293 ：你們要與我和好 H3318 ，出來 H376 投降我，各人 H398 就可以吃 H376 自己 H1612 葡萄樹 H8384 和無花果樹 H376 的果子，喝自己 H953 井 H4325 裡的水。
  32 H935 等我來 H3947 領 H776 你們到一個地方 H776 與你們本地 H1715 一樣，就是有五榖 H8492 和新酒 H776 之地 H3899 ，有糧食 H3754 和葡萄園 H776 之地 H2132 ，有橄欖樹 H1706 和蜂蜜 H776 之地 H2421 ，好使你們存活 H4191 ，不至於死 H2396 。希西家 H5496 勸導 H559 你們，說 H3068 耶和華 H5337 必拯救 H8085 我們；你們不要聽他的話。
  33 H1471 列國 H430 的　神 H376 有哪一個 H5337 救 H776 他本國 H5337 脫離 H804 亞述 H4428 王 H3027 的手呢？
  34 H2574 哈馬 H774 、亞珥拔 H430 的　神 H5617 在那裡呢？西法瓦音 H2012 、希拿 H5755 、以瓦 H430 的　神 H5337 在那裡呢？他們曾救 H8111 撒瑪利亞 H3027 脫離我的手麼？
  35 H776 這些國 H430 的　神 H5337 有誰曾救 H776 自己的國 H3027 脫離我的手 H3068 呢？難道耶和華 H5337 能救 H3389 耶路撒冷 H3027 脫離我的手麼？
  36 H5971 百姓 H2790 靜默不言 H6030 ，並不回答 H1697 一句 H4428 ，因為王 H4687 曾吩咐 H559 說 H6030 ：不要回答他。
  37 H2518 當下，希勒家 H1121 的兒子 H1004 家宰 H471 以利亞敬 H5608 和書記 H7644 舍伯那 H623 ，並亞薩 H1121 的兒子 H2142 史官 H3098 約亞 H7167 ，都撕裂 H899 衣服 H935 ，來到 H2396 希西家 H7262 那裡，將拉伯沙基 H1697 的話 H5046 告訴了他。
CUVS(i) 1 以 色 列 王 以 拉 的 儿 子 何 细 亚 第 叁 年 ， 犹 大 王 亚 哈 斯 的 儿 子 希 西 家 登 基 。 2 他 登 基 的 时 候 年 二 十 五 岁 ， 在 耶 路 撒 冷 作 王 二 十 九 年 。 他 母 亲 名 叫 亚 比 ， 是 撒 迦 利 雅 的 女 儿 。 3 希 西 家 行 耶 和 华 眼 中 看 为 正 的 事 ， 效 法 他 祖 大 卫 一 切 所 行 的 。 4 他 废 去 邱 坛 ， 毁 坏 柱 象 ， 砍 下 木 偶 ， 打 碎 摩 西 所 造 的 铜 蛇 ， 因 为 到 那 时 以 色 列 人 仍 向 铜 蛇 烧 香 。 希 西 家 叫 铜 蛇 为 铜 块 ( 或 作 人 称 铜 蛇 为 铜 象 ) 。 5 希 西 家 倚 靠 耶 和 华 ― 以 色 列 的 　 神 ， 在 他 前 后 的 犹 大 列 王 中 没 冇 一 个 及 他 的 。 6 因 为 他 专 靠 耶 和 华 ， 总 不 离 幵 ， 谨 守 耶 和 华 所 吩 咐 摩 西 的 诫 命 。 7 耶 和 华 与 他 同 在 ， 他 无 论 往 何 处 去 尽 都 亨 通 。 他 背 叛 、 不 肯 事 奉 亚 述 王 。 8 希 西 家 攻 击 非 利 士 人 ， 直 到 迦 萨 ， 并 迦 萨 的 四 境 ， 从 瞭 望 楼 到 坚 固 城 。 9 希 西 家 王 第 四 年 ， 就 是 以 色 列 王 以 拉 的 儿 子 何 细 亚 第 七 年 ， 亚 述 王 撒 缦 以 色 上 来 围 困 撒 玛 利 亚 ； 10 过 了 叁 年 就 攻 取 了 城 。 希 西 家 第 六 年 ， 以 色 列 王 何 细 亚 第 九 年 ， 撒 玛 利 亚 被 攻 取 了 。 11 亚 述 王 将 以 色 列 人 掳 到 亚 述 ， 把 他 们 安 置 在 哈 腊 与 歌 散 的 哈 博 河 边 ， 并 玛 代 人 的 城 邑 ； 12 都 因 他 们 不 听 从 耶 和 华 ― 他 们 　 神 的 话 ， 违 背 他 的 约 ， 就 是 耶 和 华 仆 人 摩 西 吩 咐 他 们 所 当 守 的 。 13 希 西 家 王 十 四 年 ， 亚 述 王 西 拿 基 立 上 来 攻 击 犹 大 的 一 切 坚 固 城 ， 将 城 攻 取 。 14 犹 大 王 希 西 家 差 人 往 拉 吉 去 见 亚 述 王 ， 说 ： 我 冇 罪 了 ， 求 你 离 幵 我 ； 凡 你 罚 我 的 ， 我 必 承 当 。 于 是 亚 述 王 罚 犹 大 王 希 西 家 银 子 叁 百 他 连 得 ， 金 子 叁 十 他 连 得 。 15 希 西 家 就 把 耶 和 华 殿 里 和 王 宫 府 库 里 所 冇 的 银 子 都 给 了 他 。 16 那 时 ， 犹 大 王 希 西 家 将 耶 和 华 殿 门 上 的 金 子 和 他 自 己 包 在 柱 上 的 金 子 都 刮 下 来 ， 给 了 亚 述 王 。 17 亚 述 王 从 拉 吉 差 遣 他 珥 探 、 拉 伯 撒 利 ， 和 拉 伯 沙 基 率 领 大 军 往 耶 路 撒 冷 ， 到 希 西 家 王 那 里 去 。 他 们 上 到 耶 路 撒 冷 ， 就 站 在 上 池 的 水 沟 旁 ， 在 漂 布 地 的 大 路 上 。 18 他 们 呼 叫 王 的 时 候 ， 就 冇 希 勒 家 的 儿 子 家 宰 以 利 亚 敬 ， 并 书 记 舍 伯 那 和 亚 萨 的 儿 子 史 官 约 亚 ， 出 来 见 他 们 。 19 拉 伯 沙 基 说 ： 你 们 去 告 诉 希 西 家 说 ， 亚 述 大 王 如 此 说 ： 你 所 倚 靠 的 冇 甚 么 可 仗 赖 的 呢 ？ 20 你 说 冇 打 仗 的 计 谋 和 能 力 ， 我 看 不 过 是 虚 话 。 你 到 底 倚 靠 谁 纔 背 叛 我 呢 ？ 21 看 哪 ， 你 所 倚 靠 的 埃 及 是 那 压 伤 的 苇 杖 ； 人 若 靠 这 杖 ， 就 必 刺 透 他 的 手 。 埃 及 王 法 老 向 一 切 倚 靠 他 的 人 也 是 这 样 。 22 你 们 若 对 我 说 ： 我 们 倚 靠 耶 和 华 ― 我 们 的 　 神 ， 希 西 家 岂 不 是 将 　 神 的 邱 坛 和 祭 坛 废 去 ， 且 对 犹 大 和 耶 路 撒 冷 的 人 说 ： 你 们 当 在 耶 路 撒 冷 这 坛 前 敬 拜 么 ？ 23 现 在 你 把 当 头 给 我 主 亚 述 王 ， 我 给 你 二 千 匹 马 ， 看 你 这 一 面 骑 马 的 人 够 不 够 。 24 若 不 然 ， 怎 能 打 败 我 主 臣 仆 中 最 小 的 军 长 呢 ？ 你 竟 倚 靠 埃 及 的 战 车 马 兵 么 ？ 25 现 在 我 上 来 攻 击 毁 灭 这 地 ， 岂 没 冇 耶 和 华 的 意 思 么 ？ 耶 和 华 吩 咐 我 说 ： 你 上 去 攻 击 毁 灭 这 地 罢 ！ 26 希 勒 家 的 儿 子 以 利 亚 敬 和 舍 伯 那 ， 并 约 亚 ， 对 拉 伯 沙 基 说 ： 求 你 用 亚 兰 言 语 和 仆 人 说 话 ， 因 为 我 们 懂 得 ； 不 要 用 犹 大 言 语 和 我 们 说 话 ， 达 到 城 上 百 姓 的 耳 中 。 27 拉 伯 沙 基 说 ： 我 主 差 遣 我 来 ， 岂 是 单 对 你 和 你 的 主 说 这 些 话 么 ？ 不 也 是 对 这 些 坐 在 城 上 、 要 与 你 们 一 同 吃 自 己 粪 、 喝 自 己 尿 的 人 说 么 ？ 28 于 是 拉 伯 沙 基 站 着 ， 用 犹 大 言 语 大 声 喊 着 说 ： 你 们 当 听 亚 述 大 王 的 话 ！ 29 王 如 此 说 ： 你 们 不 要 被 希 西 家 欺 哄 了 ； 因 他 不 能 救 你 们 脱 离 我 的 手 。 30 也 不 要 听 希 西 家 使 你 们 倚 靠 耶 和 华 ， 说 耶 和 华 必 要 拯 救 我 们 ， 这 城 必 不 交 在 亚 述 王 的 手 中 。 31 不 要 听 希 西 家 的 话 ！ 因 亚 述 王 如 此 说 ： 你 们 要 与 我 和 好 ， 出 来 投 降 我 ， 各 人 就 可 以 吃 自 己 葡 萄 树 和 无 花 果 树 的 果 子 ， 喝 自 己 井 里 的 水 。 32 等 我 来 领 你 们 到 一 个 地 方 与 你 们 本 地 一 样 ， 就 是 冇 五 榖 和 新 酒 之 地 ， 冇 粮 食 和 葡 萄 园 之 地 ， 冇 橄 榄 树 和 蜂 蜜 之 地 ， 好 使 你 们 存 活 ， 不 至 于 死 。 希 西 家 劝 导 你 们 ， 说 耶 和 华 必 拯 救 我 们 ； 你 们 不 要 听 他 的 话 。 33 列 国 的 　 神 冇 哪 一 个 救 他 本 国 脱 离 亚 述 王 的 手 呢 ？ 34 哈 马 、 亚 珥 拔 的 　 神 在 那 里 呢 ？ 西 法 瓦 音 、 希 拿 、 以 瓦 的 　 神 在 那 里 呢 ？ 他 们 曾 救 撒 玛 利 亚 脱 离 我 的 手 么 ？ 35 这 些 国 的 　 神 冇 谁 曾 救 自 己 的 国 脱 离 我 的 手 呢 ？ 难 道 耶 和 华 能 救 耶 路 撒 冷 脱 离 我 的 手 么 ？ 36 百 姓 静 默 不 言 ， 并 不 回 答 一 句 ， 因 为 王 曾 吩 咐 说 ： 不 要 回 答 他 。 37 当 下 ， 希 勒 家 的 儿 子 家 宰 以 利 亚 敬 和 书 记 舍 伯 那 ， 并 亚 萨 的 儿 子 史 官 约 亚 ， 都 撕 裂 衣 服 ， 来 到 希 西 家 那 里 ， 将 拉 伯 沙 基 的 话 告 诉 了 他 。

  5 H982 希西家倚靠 H3068 耶和华 H3478 ―以色列 H430 的　神 H6440 ，在他前 H310 后 H3063 的犹大 H4428 列王中没有一个及他的。
  6 H1692 因为他专靠 H3068 耶和华 H5493 ，总不离开 H8104 ，谨守 H3068 耶和华 H6680 所吩咐 H4872 摩西 H4687 的诫命。
  7 H3068 耶和华 H3318 与他同在，他无论往何处去 H7919 尽都亨通 H4775 。他背叛 H5647 、不肯事奉 H804 亚述 H4428 王。
  8 H5221 希西家攻击 H6430 非利士人 H5804 ，直到迦萨 H1366 ，并迦萨的四境 H5341 ，从瞭望 H4026 楼 H4013 到坚固 H5892 城。

  14 H3063 犹大 H4428 王 H2396 希西家 H7971 差 H3923 人往拉吉 H804 去见亚述 H4428 王 H559 ，说 H2398 ：我有罪了 H7725 ，求你离开 H5414 我；凡你罚 H5375 我的，我必承当 H804 。于是亚述 H4428 王 H7760 罚 H3063 犹大 H4428 王 H2396 希西家 H3701 银子 H7969 叁 H3967 百 H3603 他连得 H3603 ，金子 H7970 叁十 H3603 他连得。

  16 H6256 那时 H3063 ，犹大 H4428 王 H2396 希西家 H3068 将耶和华 H1964 殿 H1817 门 H6823 上的金子和他自己包在 H547 柱上的金子 H7112 都刮下来 H5414 ，给了 H804 亚述 H4428 王。

  20 H559 你说 H4421 有打仗 H6098 的计谋 H1369 和能力 H982 ，我看不过是虚话。你到底倚靠 H4775 谁纔背叛我呢？
  21 H982 看哪，你所倚靠的 H4714 埃及 H7533 是那压伤的 H7070 苇 H4938 杖 H376 ；人 H5564 若靠 H5344 这杖，就必刺透 H3709 他的手 H4714 。埃及 H4428 王 H6547 法老 H982 向一切倚靠他的人也是这样。
  22 H559 你们若对我说 H982 ：我们倚靠 H3068 耶和华 H430 ―我们的　神 H2396 ，希西家 H430 岂不是将　神 H1116 的邱坛 H4196 和祭坛 H5493 废去 H3063 ，且对犹大 H3389 和耶路撒冷 H559 的人说 H3389 ：你们当在耶路撒冷 H4196 这坛 H6440 前 H7812 敬拜么？
  23 H6148 现在你把当头 H113 给我主 H804 亚述 H4428 王 H5414 ，我给 H505 你二千 H5483 匹马 H7392 ，看你这一面骑马的人够不够。
  24 H113 若不然，怎能打败我主 H5650 臣仆 H6996 中最小的 H6346 军长 H982 呢？你竟倚靠 H7393 埃及的战车 H6571 马兵么？
  25 H5927 现在我上来 H7843 攻击毁灭 H4725 这地 H1107 ，岂没有 H3068 耶和华 H3068 的意思么？耶和华 H559 吩咐我说 H5927 ：你上去 H7843 攻击毁灭 H776 这地罢！
  26 H2518 希勒家 H1121 的儿子 H471 以利亚敬 H7644 和舍伯那 H3098 ，并约亚 H7262 ，对拉伯沙基 H559 说 H762 ：求你用亚兰言语 H5650 和仆人 H1696 说话 H8085 ，因为我们懂得 H3066 ；不要用犹大言语 H1696 和我们说话 H5971 ，达到城上百姓 H241 的耳中。
  27 H7262 拉伯沙基 H559 说 H113 ：我主 H7971 差遣 H113 我来，岂是单对你和你的主 H1696 说 H1697 这些话 H3427 么？不也是对这些坐在 H398 城上、要与你们一同吃 H6675 H2755 自己粪 H8354 、喝 H4325 H7272 H7890 自己尿 H582 的人说么？
  28 H7262 于是拉伯沙基 H5975 站着 H3066 ，用犹大言语 H1419 大 H6963 声 H7121 喊着 H1696 H559 说 H8085 ：你们当听 H804 亚述 H1419 大 H4428 王 H1697 的话！
  29 H4428 王 H559 如此说 H2396 ：你们不要被希西家 H5377 欺哄了 H3201 ；因他不能 H5337 救你们脱离 H3027 我的手。
  30 H2396 也不要听希西家 H982 使你们倚靠 H3068 耶和华 H559 ，说 H3068 耶和华 H5337 必要 H5337 拯救 H5892 我们，这城 H5414 必不交在 H804 亚述 H4428 王 H3027 的手中。
  31 H8085 不要听 H2396 希西家 H804 的话！因亚述 H4428 王 H559 如此说 H6213 H1293 ：你们要与我和好 H3318 ，出来 H376 投降我，各人 H398 就可以吃 H376 自己 H1612 葡萄树 H8384 和无花果树 H376 的果子，喝自己 H953 井 H4325 里的水。

Esperanto(i) 1 En la tria jaro de Hosxea, filo de Ela, regxo de Izrael, ekregxis HXizkija, filo de Ahxaz, regxo de Judujo. 2 Li havis la agxon de dudek kvin jaroj, kiam li farigxis regxo, kaj dudek naux jarojn li regxis en Jerusalem. La nomo de lia patrino estis Abi, filino de Zehxarja. 3 Li agadis bone antaux la Eternulo, tiel same, kiel agadis lia patro David. 4 Li forigis la altajxojn, rompis la statuojn, dehakis la sanktajn stangojn, kaj disbatis la kupran serpenton, kiun faris Moseo; cxar gxis tiu tempo la Izraelidoj incensadis al gxi, kaj oni nomis gxin Nehxusxtan. 5 La Eternulon, Dion de Izrael, li fidis; kaj simila al li ne ekzistis inter cxiuj regxoj de Judujo post li, nek inter tiuj, kiuj estis antaux li. 6 Li forte tenis sin al la Eternulo, ne deturnis sin de Li, kaj li observadis Liajn ordonojn, kiujn la Eternulo donis al Moseo. 7 Kaj la Eternulo estis kun li; cxie, kien li iris, li agis prudente. Li defalis de la regxo de Asirio kaj cxesis servi al li. 8 Li venkobatis la Filisxtojn gxis Gaza kaj gxia regiono, de la gardostara turo gxis la fortikigita urbo. 9 En la kvara jaro de la regxo HXizkija, tio estas en la sepa jaro de Hosxea, filo de Ela, regxo de Izrael, iris SXalmaneser, regxo de Asirio, kontraux Samarion kaj eksiegxis gxin. 10 Kaj li venkoprenis gxin post tri jaroj; en la sesa jaro de HXizkija, tio estas en la nauxa jaro de Hosxea, regxo de Izrael, Samario estis prenita. 11 Kaj la regxo de Asirio transkondukis la Izraelidojn en Asirion, kaj logxigis ilin en HXalahx, kaj en HXabor, cxe la rivero Gozan, kaj en la urboj de la Medoj; 12 pro tio, ke ili ne obeis la vocxon de la Eternulo, sia Dio, kaj malobeis Lian interligon, cxion, kion ordonis Moseo, servanto de la Eternulo, ili ne obeis kaj ne plenumis. 13 En la dek-kvara jaro de la regxo HXizkija eliris Sanhxerib, regxo de Asirio, kontraux cxiujn fortikigitajn urbojn de Judujo, kaj venkoprenis ilin. 14 Tiam HXizkija, regxo de Judujo, sendis al la regxo de Asirio en Lahxisxon, por diri:Mi pekis; returnu vin de mi; kion vi metos sur min, tion mi plenumos. Kaj la regxo de Asirio metis sur HXizkijan, regxon de Judujo, tributon de tricent kikaroj da argxento kaj tridek kikaroj da oro. 15 Kaj HXizkija fordonis la tutan argxenton, kiu trovigxis en la domo de la Eternulo kaj en la trezorejoj de la regxa domo. 16 En tiu tempo HXizkija dehakis la pordojn de la templo de la Eternulo, kaj la kolonojn, kiujn HXizkija, regxo de Judujo, estis teginta, kaj donis ilin al la regxo de Asirio. 17 La regxo de Asirio sendis Tartanon kaj Rab-Sarison kaj Rabsxaken el Lahxisx al la regxo HXizkija kun granda militistaro al Jerusalem. Ili iris kaj venis en Jerusalemon. Kiam ili venis, ili starigxis cxe la akvotubo de la supra lageto, kiu estas cxe la vojo de la kampo de fulistoj. 18 Ili vokis la regxon. Kaj eliris al ili Eljakim, filo de HXilkija, la palacestro, kaj SXebna, la skribisto, kaj Joahx, filo de Asaf, la kronikisto. 19 Kaj Rabsxake diris al ili:Diru al HXizkija:Tiele diras la granda regxo, la regxo de Asirio:Kio estas la fido, kiun vi fidas? 20 Vi diris nur busxan babiladon; por milito oni bezonas konsilon kaj forton. Nun kiun vi fidas, ke vi ribelis kontraux mi? 21 Jen vi fidas la apogon de Egiptujo, tiu kano rompita, kiu, se iu sin apogas sur gxi, eniras en lian manon kaj trapikas gxin. Tia estas Faraono, regxo de Egiptujo, por cxiuj, kiuj fidas lin. 22 Eble vi diros al mi:La Eternulon, nian Dion, ni fidas? sed Li estas ja Tiu, kies altajxojn kaj altarojn HXizkija forigis, dirante al Judujo kaj Jerusalem:Antaux cxi tiu altaro adorklinigxu en Jerusalem. 23 Nun provu konkuri kun mia sinjoro, la regxo de Asirio; mi donos al vi du mil cxevalojn-cxu vi povas trovi rajdantojn por ili? 24 Kiel vi povas forigi estron, unu el la plej malgrandaj servantoj de mia sinjoro, kaj fidi Egiptujon pro la cxaroj kaj rajdistoj? 25 Cetere, cxu sen la volo de la Eternulo mi iris kontraux cxi tiun lokon, por ruinigi gxin? La Eternulo diris al mi:Iru kontraux cxi tiun landon kaj ruinigu gxin. 26 Tiam Eljakim, filo de HXilkija, kaj SXebna kaj Joahx diris al Rabsxake:Volu paroli al viaj sklavoj en la lingvo Siria, cxar ni komprenas; sed ne parolu kun ni Jude antaux la oreloj de la popolo, kiu estas sur la murego. 27 Sed Rabsxake diris al ili:CXu al via sinjoro kaj al vi sendis min mia sinjoro, por diri tiujn vortojn? cxu ne al la homoj, kiuj sidas sur la murego, por mangxi sian ekskrementon kaj trinki sian urinon kune kun vi? 28 Kaj Rabsxake starigxis, kaj ekkriis per lauxta vocxo Jude, kaj li ekparolis, dirante:Auxskultu la vortojn de la granda regxo, la regxo de Asirio. 29 Tiele diras la regxo:HXizkija ne forlogu vin, cxar li ne povos savi vin el lia mano. 30 Kaj HXizkija ne fidigu vin per la Eternulo, dirante:La Eternulo certe nin savos, kaj cxi tiu urbo ne estos transdonita en la manojn de la regxo de Asirio. 31 Ne auxskultu HXizkijan; cxar tiele diras la regxo de Asirio:Faru kun mi pacon kaj eliru al mi, kaj mangxu cxiu el sia vinbergxardeno kaj cxiu de sia figarbo kaj trinku cxiu la akvon el sia puto, 32 gxis mi venos kaj prenos vin en landon similan al via lando, en landon de greno kaj mosto, en landon de pano kaj vinbergxardenoj, en landon de olivoj kaj de mielo, kaj vi vivos kaj ne mortos. Kaj ne auxskultu HXizkijan, kiam li forlogas vin per la vortoj:La Eternulo nin savos. 33 CXu la dioj de la nacioj savis cxiu sian landon el la manoj de la regxo de Asirio? 34 Kie estas la dioj de HXamat kaj de Arpad? kie estas la dioj de Sefarvaim, de Hena kaj Iva? cxu ili savis Samarion el miaj manoj? 35 Kiu el cxiuj dioj de tiuj landoj savis sian landon el miaj manoj, ke la Eternulo savu Jerusalemon el miaj manoj? 36 Kaj la popolo silentis kaj nenion respondis al li; cxar estis ordono de la regxo:Ne respondu al li. 37 Kaj Eljakim, filo de HXilkija, la palacestro, kaj SXebna, la skribisto, kaj Joahx, filo de Asaf, la kronikisto, venis al HXizkija en dissxiritaj vestoj, kaj raportis al li la vortojn de Rabsxake.
Finnish(i) 1 Ja tapahtui kolmantena Hosean Elan pojan Israelin kuninkaan ajastaikana, että Hiskia Ahaksen Juudan kuninkaan poika tuli kuninkaaksi. 2 Hän oli viidenkolmattakymmenen ajastaikainen tullessansa kuninkaaksi, ja hallitsi yhdeksän ajastaikaa kolmattakymmentä Jerusalemissa; hänen äitinsä nimi oli Abi, Sakarian tytär. 3 Ja hän teki sitä mikä otollinen oli Herran edessä, juuri niinkuin hänen isänsä David teki. 4 Hän kukisti korkeudet, ja särki patsaat, ja hävitti metsistöt, ja löi vaskikäärmeen rikki, jonka Moses tehnyt oli, sillä Israelin lapset suitsuttivat sille aina siihen päivään asti; ja hän kutsui sen Nehustan. 5 Hän turvasi Herraan Israelin Jumalaan; niin ettei yksikään hänen kaltaisensa ollut hänen jälkeensä, ei myös hänen edellänsä kaikkein Juudan kuningasten seassa. 6 Hän riippui Herrassa ja ei luopunut hänestä, ja piti hänen käskynsä niinkuin Herra Mosekselle oli käskenyt. 7 Ja Herra oli hänen kanssansa, ja kuhunkapäin hän meni, toimitti hän taitavasti; hän luopui myös Assyrian kuninkaasta, ja ei palvellut häntä. 8 Hän löi Philistealaiset Gasaan asti, ja heidän rajansa, vartiain tornista vahvoihin kaupunkeihin asti. 9 Ja tapahtui neljäntenä Hiskian kuninkaan vuonna, (se oli seitsemäs Hosean Elan pojan Israelin kuninkaan vuosi) että Salmanassar Assyrian kuningas meni Samariaa vastaan ja piiritti sen. 10 Ja voitti kolmen vuoden perästä, kuudentena Hiskian vuonna, se on yhdeksäs Hosean Israelin kuninkaan vuosi: silloin voitettiin Samaria. 11 Ja Assyrian kuningas vei Israelin Assyriaan, ja pani heitä Halaan ja Haboriin, Gosarin virran tykö, Mediläisten kaupunkeihin, 12 Ettei he olleet kuuliaiset Herran Jumalansa äänelle, ja rikkoivat hänen liittonsa ja kaikki, mitä Moses Herran palvelia käskenyt oli: sitä ei he totelleet eikä tehneet. 13 Mutta neljäntenätoistakymmenentenä Hiskian kuninkaan vuonna, meni Sanherib Assyrian kuningas kaikkia Juudan vahvoja kaupungeita vastaan ja voitti ne. 14 Niin lähetti Hiskia Juudan kuningas Lakikseen Assyrian kuninkaan tykö ja antoi hänelle sanoa: minä olen rikkonut, mene minun tyköäni pois, mitäs panet minun päälleni, sen minä kannan. Niin pani Assyrian kuningas Hiskian Juudan kuninkaan päälle kolmesataa leiviskää hopiaa ja kolmekymmentä leiviskää kultaa. 15 Niin antoi Hiskia kaiken sen hopian, mikä Herran huoneessa löyttiin ja kuninkaan huoneen tavaroissa. 16 Silloin särki Hiskia Herran templin ovet ja kiskot, jotka Hiskia Juudan kuningas oli antanut silata, ja antoi ne Assyrian kuninkaalle. 17 Ja Assyrian kuningas lähetti Tartanin, ja ylimmäisen kamaripalvelian, ja Rabsaken Lakiksesta kuningas Hiskian tykö, suuren väen kanssa Jerusalemiin; ja he nousivat ja menivät Jerusalemiin. Ja noustuansa ja tultuansa sinne, seisahtivat he ylimmäisen vesilammikon kanavan vieressä, tiellä Vanuttajakedolle, 18 Ja kutsuivat kuninkaan; niin meni Eliakim Hilkian poika huoneenhaltia heidän tykönsä ulos, ja Sebna kirjoittaja, ja Joa Asaphin poika kansleri. 19 Niin sanoi Rabsake heille: sanokaat nyt Hiskialle: näin sanoo suuri kuningas, Assyrian kuningas: mikä on tämä turva, johon sinä luotat? 20 Ajatteletkos (vaikka ne ovat tyhjät puheet) neuvoa ja voimaa olevan sotiakses? mihinkä sinä luotat, ettäs olet minusta luopunut? 21 Katso, sinä uskallat tuon särjetyn ruokosauvan päälle Egyptistä! joka, jos joku nojaa sen päälle, menee sisälle hänen käteensä ja pistää sen lävitse: niin on Pharao Egyptin kuningas kaikille, jotka luottavat hänen päällensä. 22 Mutta jos te sanoisitte minulle: me uskallamme Herran Jumalamme päälle: eikö hän ole se, jonka korkeudet ja alttarit Hiskia on kukistanut? ja sanoi Juudalle ja Jerusalemille: tämän alttarin edessä, joka on Jerusalemissa, pitää teidän kumartaman. 23 Lyö siis nyt veto herrani Assyrian kuninkaan kanssa: minä annan sinulle kaksituhatta hevosta, jos sinä taidat antaa niitä, jotka niillä ratsastavat. 24 Kuinka siis sinä taidat ajaa takaperin yhden päämiehen herrani vähimmistä palvelioista? Mutta sinä luotat Egyptin päälle, vaunuin ja ratsasmiesten tähden. 25 Eli luuletkos, että minä ilman Herraa tähän paikkaan tullut olen, hävittämään tätä? Herra on minulle sanonut: mene tätä maata vastaan ja hukuta se. 26 Niin sanoi Eliakim Hilkian poika, ja Sebna ja Joa Rabsakelle: puhu palveliais kanssa Syrian kielellä, sillä me ymmärrämme sen, ja älä puhu meidän kanssamme Juudan kielellä, kansan kuullen, jotka muurin päällä ovat. 27 Mutta Rabsake sanoi heille: onko herrani lähettänyt minun sinun herras tykö eli sinun tykös, näitä sanoja puhumaan? eikö enemmin niiden miesten tykö, jotka muurin päällä istuvat, että heidän pitää syömän omaa lokaansa ja juoman omaa vettänsä teidän kanssanne? 28 Niin seisoi Rabsake ja huusi korkealla äänellä Juudan kielellä, puhui ja sanoi: kuulkaat suuren kuninkaan, Assyrian kuninkaan ääntä! 29 Näin sanoo kuningas: älkää antako Hiskian pettää teitänne; sillä ei hän voi vapahtaa teitä hänen käsistänsä. 30 Ja älkään antako Hiskia teidän turvata Herran päälle, sanoen: Herra on totisesti pelastava meitä, ja ei tämä kaupunki anneta Assyrian kuninkaan käsiin. 31 Älkäät kuulko Hiskiaa; sillä näin sanoo Assyrian kuningas: sopikaat minun kanssani, ja tulkaat minun tyköni, niin joka mies on syövä viinapuustansa ja fikunapuustansa, ja juova kaivostansa, 32 Siihen asti minä tulen ja vien teitä siihen maahan, joka teidän maanne kaltainen on, jossa jyviä, viinaa, leipää, viinamäkiä, öljypuita, öljyä ja hunajaa on, niin te elätte ja ette kuole. Älkäät kuulko Hiskiaa, sillä hän pettää teitä, kuin hän sanoo: Herra pelastaa meitä. 33 Ovatko myös pakanain jumalat pelastaneet kukin maansa Assyrian kuninkaan käsistä? 34 Kussa ovat Hematin ja Arpadin jumalat? kussa ovat Sepharvaimin, Henan ja Ivvan jumalat? ovatko he Samarian pelastaneet minun käsistäni? 35 Kussa on joku kaikkein niiden maakuntain jumalain seassa, joka maansa on pelastanut minun kädestäni, että Herra nyt pelastaisi Jerusalemin minun kädestäni? 36 Ja kansa vaikeni ja ei häntä mitäkään vastannut: sillä kuningas oli käskenyt ja sanonut: älkäät häntä vastatko. 37 Niin tuli Eliakim Hilkian poika huoneenhaltia, ja Sebna kirjoittaja, ja Joa Asaphin poika kansleri Hiskian tykö reväistyillä vaatteilla, ja ilmoittivat hänelle Rabsaken sanat.
FinnishPR(i) 1 Israelin kuninkaan Hoosean, Eelan pojan, kolmantena hallitusvuotena tuli Hiskia, Juudan kuninkaan Aahaan poika, kuninkaaksi. 2 Hän oli kahdenkymmenen viiden vuoden vanha tullessansa kuninkaaksi, ja hän hallitsi Jerusalemissa kaksikymmentä yhdeksän vuotta. Hänen äitinsä oli nimeltään Abi, Sakarjan tytär. 3 Hän teki sitä, mikä on oikein Herran silmissä, aivan niinkuin hänen isänsä Daavid oli tehnyt. 4 Hän poisti uhrikukkulat, murskasi patsaat, hakkasi maahan asera-karsikon ja löi palasiksi vaskikäärmeen, jonka Mooses oli tehnyt; sillä niihin aikoihin asti israelilaiset olivat polttaneet uhreja sille; sitä kutsuttiin nimellä Nehustan. 5 Hän turvasi Herraan, Israelin Jumalaan, niin ettei kukaan ollut hänen kaltaisensa kaikista hänen jälkeläisistään Juudan kuninkaista eikä niistä, jotka olivat olleet ennen häntä. 6 Hän riippui Herrassa kiinni eikä luopunut hänestä, vaan noudatti hänen käskyjänsä, jotka Herra oli antanut Moosekselle. 7 Niin Herra oli hänen kanssansa; hän menestyi kaikessa, mihin ryhtyi. Hän kapinoi Assurin kuningasta vastaan eikä enää palvellut häntä. 8 Hän voitti filistealaiset ja valtasi heidän alueensa aina Gassaan asti, sekä vartiotornit että varustetut kaupungit. 9 Mutta kuningas Hiskian neljäntenä hallitusvuotena, joka oli Israelin kuninkaan Hoosean, Eelan pojan, seitsemäs hallitusvuosi, hyökkäsi Salmaneser, Assurin kuningas, Samarian kimppuun ja piiritti sitä. 10 Ja hän valloitti sen kolmen vuoden kuluttua. Hiskian kuudentena hallitusvuotena, joka oli Israelin kuninkaan Hoosean yhdeksäs hallitusvuosi, valloitettiin Samaria. 11 Ja Assurin kuningas vei Israelin pakkosiirtolaisuuteen Assuriin ja sijoitti heidät Halahiin ja Haaborin, Goosanin joen, rannoille ja Meedian kaupunkeihin, 12 sentähden että he eivät olleet kuulleet Herran, Jumalansa, ääntä, vaan olivat rikkoneet hänen liittonsa, kaiken, mitä Mooses, Herran palvelija, oli käskenyt; he eivät olleet kuulleet sitä eivätkä tehneet sen mukaan. 13 Kuningas Hiskian neljäntenätoista hallitusvuotena hyökkäsi Sanherib, Assurin kuningas, kaikkien Juudan varustettujen kaupunkien kimppuun ja valloitti ne. 14 Niin Hiskia, Juudan kuningas, lähetti Assurin kuninkaalle Laakiiseen sanan: "Minä olen rikkonut, käänny pois minun kimpustani. Minä kannan, mitä panet kannettavakseni." Niin Assurin kuningas määräsi Hiskian, Juudan kuninkaan, maksettavaksi kolmesataa talenttia hopeata ja kolmekymmentä talenttia kultaa. 15 Ja Hiskia antoi kaikki rahat, mitä Herran temppelissä ja kuninkaan linnan aarrekammioissa oli. 16 Siihen aikaan Hiskia leikkautti irti Herran temppelin ovista ja pihtipielistä sen päällystyksen, jolla Hiskia, Juudan kuningas, oli päällystänyt ne, ja antoi sen Assurin kuninkaalle. 17 Mutta Assurin kuningas lähetti Laakiista Tartanin ja ylimmäisen hoviherran ja Rabsaken suuren sotajoukon kanssa kuningas Hiskiaa vastaan Jerusalemiin. Ja nämä lähtivät liikkeelle ja tulivat Jerusalemiin; ja lähdettyänsä liikkeelle ja tultuansa he pysähtyivät Ylälammikon vesijohdolle, joka on Vanuttajankedon tien varrella. 18 Kun he sitten kutsuivat kuningasta, menivät Eljakim, Hilkian poika, joka oli linnan päällikkönä, ja kirjuri Sebna ja kansleri Jooah, Aasafin poika, heidän luoksensa. 19 Ja Rabsake sanoi heille: "Sanokaa Hiskialle: Näin sanoo suurkuningas, Assurin kuningas: 'Mitä on tuo luottamus, mikä sinulla on? 20 Arvelet kai, että pelkästä huulten puheesta tulee neuvo ja voima sodankäyntiin. Keneen sinä oikein luotat, kun kapinoit minua vastaan? 21 Katso, sinä luotat nyt Egyptiin, tuohon särkyneeseen ruokosauvaan, joka tunkeutuu sen käteen, joka siihen nojaa, ja lävistää sen. Sellainen on farao, Egyptin kuningas, kaikille, jotka häneen luottavat. 22 Vai sanotteko te ehkä minulle: Me luotamme Herraan, meidän Jumalaamme? Mutta eikö hän ole se, jonka uhrikukkulat ja alttarit Hiskia poisti, kun hän sanoi Juudalle ja Jerusalemille: Tämän alttarin edessä on teidän kumartaen rukoiltava, täällä Jerusalemissa?' 23 Mutta lyö nyt vetoa minun herrani, Assurin kuninkaan, kanssa: minä annan sinulle kaksi tuhatta hevosta, jos sinä voit hankkia niille ratsastajat. 24 Kuinka sinä sitten voisit torjua ainoankaan käskynhaltijan, ainoankaan minun herrani vähimmän palvelijan, hyökkäyksen? Ja sinä vain luotat Egyptiin, sen vaunuihin ja ratsumiehiin. 25 Olenko minä siis Herran sallimatta hyökännyt tämän paikan kimppuun hävittämään sitä? Herra itse on sanonut minulle: 'Hyökkää tähän maahan ja hävitä se'." 26 Niin Eljakim, Hilkian poika, ja Sebna ja Jooah sanoivat Rabsakelle: "Puhu palvelijoillesi araminkieltä, sillä me ymmärrämme sitä; älä puhu meidän kanssamme juudankieltä kansan kuullen, jota on muurilla". 27 Mutta Rabsake vastasi heille: "Onko minun herrani lähettänyt minut puhumaan näitä sanoja sinun herrallesi ja sinulle? Eikö juuri niille miehille, jotka istuvat muurilla ja joutuvat teidän kanssanne syömään omaa likaansa ja juomaan omaa vettänsä?" 28 Sitten Rabsake astui esiin, huusi kovalla äänellä juudankielellä, puhui ja sanoi: "Kuulkaa suurkuninkaan, Assurin kuninkaan, sana. 29 Näin sanoo kuningas: 'Älkää antako Hiskian pettää itseänne, sillä hän ei voi pelastaa teitä minun käsistäni. 30 Älköön Hiskia saako teitä luottamaan Herraan, kun hän sanoo: Herra on varmasti pelastava meidät, eikä tätä kaupunkia anneta Assurin kuninkaan käsiin. 31 Älkää kuulko Hiskiaa.' Sillä Assurin kuningas sanoo näin: 'Tehkää sovinto minun kanssani ja antautukaa minulle, niin te saatte syödä kukin omasta viinipuustanne ja viikunapuustanne ja juoda kukin omasta kaivostanne, 32 kunnes minä tulen ja vien teidät maahan, joka on teidän maanne kaltainen, vilja-,viini-ja leipämaahan, viinitarhojen, jalon öljypuun ja hunajan maahan; ja niin te saatte elää ettekä kuole. Mutta älkää kuulko Hiskiaa; sillä hän viettelee teidät, kun sanoo: Herra pelastaa meidät. 33 Onko muidenkaan kansojen jumalista yksikään pelastanut maatansa Assurin kuninkaan käsistä? 34 Missä ovat Hamatin ja Arpadin jumalat? Missä ovat Sefarvaimin, Heenan ja Ivvan jumalat? Ovatko ne pelastaneet Samariaa minun käsistäni? 35 Onko muiden maiden kaikista jumalista ainoakaan pelastanut maatansa minun käsistäni? Kuinka sitten Herra pelastaisi Jerusalemin minun käsistäni?'" 36 Mutta kansa oli vaiti, eivätkä he vastanneet hänelle mitään; sillä kuningas oli käskenyt niin ja sanonut: "Älkää vastatko hänelle". 37 Sitten palatsin päällikkö Eljakim, Hilkian poika, ja kirjuri Sebna ja kansleri Jooah, Aasafin poika, tulivat Hiskian luo vaatteet reväistyinä ja kertoivat hänelle, mitä Rabsake oli sanonut.
Haitian(i) 1 Oze, pitit Ela, t'ap mache sou twazan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl lè Ezekyas, pitit gason Akaz, moute wa nan peyi Jida. 2 Lè sa a, li te gen vennsenkan. Li gouvènen nan lavil Jerizalèm pandan ventnevan. Manman l' te rele Abi. Se te pitit fi Zakari. 3 Li te mache dwat devan Seyè a, li te fè menm jan ak David, zansèt li a. 4 Se li menm ki te kraze tout tanp zidòl yo. Li kraze tout wòch yo te mete kanpe pou zidòl yo, li koupe estati Achera yo. Li kraze an miyèt moso estati sèpan an kwiv Moyiz te fè a, paske jouk lè sa a toujou pèp Izrayèl la t'ap boule lansan pou li. Yo te rele l' Newouchtan. 5 Ezekyas te mete tout konfyans li nan Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Peyi Jida a pa janm gen yon wa tankou l', ni anvan l' ni apre l'. 6 Li te kenbe Bondye li fèm, li pa t' janm dezobeyi l'. Li te fè tou sa Seyè a te mande dapre lòd Seyè a te bay Moyiz. 7 Se poutèt sa, Seyè a te toujou la avè l'. Tou sa li te fè te byen soti. Ezekyas kenbe tèt ak wa peyi Lasiri a. Li derefize soumèt devan li. 8 Li bat moun peyi Filisti yo, li kouri dèyè yo rive lavil Gaza ak sou fwontyè l' yo, li piye dènye kote yo te rete, depi ti bouk avanpòs yo rive nan gwo lavil ak ranpa yo. 9 Ezekyas t'ap mache sou katran depi li te wa nan peyi Jida, Oze, pitit Ela a menm, te gen sètan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la lè Salmanaza, wa peyi Lasiri a, anvayi peyi Izrayèl, li sènen lavil Samari. 10 Sou bout twazan, li pran lavil la. Lè sa a, Ezekyas t'ap mache sou sizan depi li te wa, Oze menm te gen nevan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Izrayèl. 11 Salmanaza fè tout moun peyi Izrayèl yo prizonye. Li depòte yo nan peyi Lasiri. Li mete yon pati ladan yo lavil Ala, toupre larivyè Abò nan zòn Gozan an, yon pati nan lavil peyi Medi yo. 12 Lavil Samari te tonbe paske moun pèp Izrayèl yo pa t' obeyi Seyè a, Bondye yo a. Yo pa t' respekte kontra li te pase ak yo a. Yo pa t' fè tou sa Moyiz, sèvitè Seyè a, te mande yo fè. Yo pa t' koute l'. 13 Wa Ezekyas t'ap mache sou katòzan depi li t'ap gouvènen peyi Jida lè Senakerib, wa peyi Lasiri, vin atake tout lavil ak gwo ranpa peyi Jida yo. Li pran yo. 14 Lè sa a, Ezekyas, wa peyi Jida, voye yon mesaj bay Senakerib ki te lavil Lakis. Li di l' konsa: --Sa m' fè a mal. Tanpri, pa atake m' ankò. Nenpòt kisa w'a egzije m' bay, m'ap ba ou li. Wa peyi Lasiri a egzije pou Ezekyas, wa peyi Jida a, ba li dis tòn ajan ak yon tòn lò. 15 Ezekyas ba li tout ajan ki te nan Tanp Seyè a ak nan trezò palè a. 16 Li dekale tout lò li menm li te fè plake sou pòt ak chanbrann pòt Tanp Seyè a, li voye yo bay wa peyi Lasiri a. 17 Apre sa, wa peyi Lasiri a rete lavil Lakis li voye kòmandan chèf lame li a, chèf gad pèsonèl li a ak chèf gad palè li a ansanm ak yon gwo lame bò kote Ezekyas. Yo moute lavil Jerizalèm pou atake l'. Lè yo rive la, yo moute kan yo sou wout ki mennen nan jaden kote yo lave twal ki fenk tenn yo, toupre kannal ki bay dlo nan rezèvwa anwo lavil la. 18 Yo voye chache wa a. Men se twa otorite ki soti vin jwenn yo. Se te Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, ki te chèf moun k'ap travay nan palè a, Chebna, sekretè a, ak Joak, pitit Asaf la, ki te reskonsab achiv leta a. 19 Chèf gad palè wa Lasiri a di yo konsa: --Ale di wa Ezekyas men mesaj gran wa a, wa peyi Lasiri a, voye ba li: Poukisa ou gen tout konfyans sa a? 20 Ou konprann ou ka fè lagè ak bèl pawòl ase, san ou pa bezwen lespri ak bon sòlda? Sou ki moun ou apiye pou ou kenbe tèt ak mwen konsa? 21 W'al mete konfyans ou nan peyi Lejip! Yon baton wozo tou kase! Anvan ou apiye sou li, l'ap antre nan men ou, l'ap blese ou. Farawon an, wa peyi Lejip ou wè a, se konsa li ye pou tout moun ki fè l' konfyans. 22 Nou pral di m' koulye a se nan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, nou mete konfyans nou! Atò, se pa kote nou te mete apa pou li yo ansanm ak tout lotèl li yo wa Ezekyas te fè disparèt nan peyi a, lèfini, li mande tout moun peyi Jida ak moun lavil Jerizalèm pou yo vin devan yon sèl lotèl la? 23 Antann nou avè mèt mwen an, wa peyi Lasiri a. Lèfini, m'ap ban nou demil (2.000) chwal si nou ka jwenn demil sòlda pou moute yo. 24 Ou pa menm gen moun ase pou bat yonn nan pi piti chèf ki sou lòd wa mwen an! Epi se sou peyi Lejip w'ap konte pou jwenn cha lagè ak kavalye pou fè lagè? 25 Epitou, pa konprann se san konsantman Seyè a mwen vin atake peyi a pou m' detwi l'. Se Seyè a menm ki di m' atake peyi ou la pou m' detwi l'. 26 Lè sa a, Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, Chebna ansanm ak Joak, di chèf gad palè a: --Tanpri, mèt. Pale arameyen ak nou. Nou konprann lang sa a. Men, pa pale ebre. Tout moun ki sou miray la ap koute. 27 Men, chèf gad palè a di yo an ebre: --An! Nou konprann se pou wa nou an ansanm ak nou twa la a ase wa mwen an voye m' vin pale pawòl sa yo? Non. M'ap pale ak tout moun ki chita sou miray la tou. Yo menm tou yo pral manje poupou yo, yo pral bwè pipi yo ansanm ak nou! 28 Lè sa a, chèf gad palè a kanpe, li pran pale byen fò an ebre, li di konsa: --Koute sa gran wa a, wa peyi Lasiri a, voye di nou. 29 Li voye di nou pa kite Ezekyas twonpe nou. Li pa ka sove nou tande. 30 Pa kite l' pran tèt nou lè l'ap di nou nou mèt sèten Seyè a pral sove nou, Seyè a p'ap lage lavil la nan men wa peyi Lasiri a. 31 Pa koute wa Ezekyas! Wa peyi Lasiri a mande pou nou fè lapè avè l', pou nou rann tèt nou ba li. Konsa, nou tout ka manje rezen nan jaden rezen nou, n'a ka manje fig frans nan pye fig frans nou, n'a ka bwè dlo nan pi nou. 32 Lè wa a va vin isit la pita, la pran nou, la mennen nou nan yon lòt peyi ki tankou peyi pa nou an, yon peyi kote ki gen anpil ble pou fè farin ak anpil rezen pou fè diven, yon peyi kote ki gen pye oliv pou fè lwil oliv ak anpil siwo myèl. Konsa n'a viv, nou p'ap mouri. Pa kite Ezekyas pran tèt nou pou nou kwè Seyè a va delivre nou. 33 Eske bondye lòt nasyon yo te delivre yo anba men wa peyi Lasiri a? 34 Kote bondye moun Amat yo ak bondye moun Apad yo? Kote bondye moun Sefavayim yo, moun Ena ak moun Iva yo? Eske yo te sove peyi Samari anba men l'? 35 Nan tout bondye sa yo, kilès ki te rive sove moun yo anba men l'? Poukisa atò se Seyè a ki pou ta sove lavil Jerizalèm anba men l'? 36 Men pèp la pa louvri bouch reponn, yo pa di yon mo paske wa a te bay lòd pou pesonn pa reponn. 37 Apre sa, Elyakim, pitit Ilkija a, ki chèf moun k'ap travay nan palè a, Chebna, sekretè a ak Joak, pitit Azaf la, ki te reskonsab achiv leta a, chire rad sou yo sitèlman sa te fè yo lapenn. Yo tounen al jwenn Ezekyas, yo rapòte l' tou sa chèf gad palè wa Lasiri a te di.
Hungarian(i) 1 És Hóseásnak, az Ela fiának, az Izráel királyának harmadik esztendejében kezdett uralkodni Ezékiás, Akháznak, a Júda királyának fia. 2 Huszonöt esztendõs volt, mikor uralkodni kezdett, és huszonkilencz esztendeig uralkodott Jeruzsálemben; anyjának neve Abi, a Zakariás leánya. 3 És kedves dolgot cselekedék az Úr szemei elõtt, a mint az õ atyja, Dávid cselekedett volt. 4 Õ rontotta le a magaslatokat, törte el az oszlopokat, és vágta ki az Aserát, és törte össze az érczkígyót is, a melyet Mózes csinált; mert mind az ideig az Izráel fiai jóillatot tettek annak, és nevezék azt Nékhustánnak. 5 [Egyedül] az Úrban, Izráel Istenében bízott, és õ utána nem volt hozzá hasonló Júda minden királyai között sem azok között, a kik õ elõtte [voltak.] 6 Mert az Úrhoz ragaszkodott, és el nem hajlott õ tõle, és megõrizte az õ parancsolatait, a melyeket az Úr Mózesnek parancsolt vala. 7 És vele volt az Úr mindenütt és a hova csak ment, elõmenetele volt. És elszakadt Assiria királyától, és nem szolgált néki. 8 Megverte a Filiszteusokat is egész Gázáig és határukat, az õrtornyoktól a kerített városokig. 9 Ezékiás királynak negyedik esztendejében - a mely Hóseásnak, az Ela fiának, az Izráel királyának hetedik esztendeje - feljött Salmanassár, Assiria királya Samaria ellen, és megszállotta azt; 10 És elfoglalta három esztendõ mulva, Ezékiás hatodik esztendejében - ez Hóseásnak, az Izráel királyának kilenczedik esztendeje - ekkor vették be Samariát. 11 És elhurczolta Assiria királya az Izráelt Assiriába, és letelepíté Halába, Háborba, a Gózán folyó mellé, és a Médeusok városaiba; 12 Azért, mert nem hallgattak az Úrnak, az õ Istenöknek szavára, hanem megszegték az õ szövetségét, mindazokat, a melyeket Mózes, az Úr szolgája parancsolt vala; sem nem hallgattak rájok, sem nem cselekedték azokat. 13 Ezékiás királynak pedig tizennegyedik esztendejében feljött Sénakhérib, Assiria királya Júdának minden kerített városa ellen, és elfoglalta azokat. 14 Akkor elküldött Ezékiás, Júda királya Assiria királyához Lákisba, ezt izenvén: Vétkeztem, térj el én rólam; a mit rám vetsz, elviselem! És Assiria királya Ezékiásra, Júda királyára háromszáz tálentom ezüstöt és harmincz tálentom aranyat vetett ki. 15 És Ezékiás oda adott minden ezüstöt, a mely találtatott az Úr házában és a király házának kincsei között. 16 Ugyanebben az idõben fosztotta meg Ezékiás az Úr templomának ajtajait és az ajtók félfáit, a melyeket Ezékiás, Júda királya maga boríttatott be, és oda adta azokat Assiria királyának. 17 És Assiria királya [mégis] oda küldte Thartánt, Rabsárist és Rabsakét Lákisból Ezékiás királyhoz igen nagy haddal Jeruzsálembe, és felmenének és jutának Jeruzsálembe, és feljövén és oda érvén, megállának a felsõ halastó zsilipjénél, a mely a ruhafestõ útja mellett van. 18 És kihívaták a királyt. És kiméne hozzájok Eliákim, a Hilkia fia, ki a [király] házának gondviselõje volt, és Sebna, az íródeák, és Joákh, az Asáf fia, az emlékíró. 19 És monda nékik Rabsaké: Mondjátok meg Ezékiásnak: Ezt mondja a király, Assiria nagy királya: Micsoda bizodalom ez, a melyben te bizakodtál? 20 Azt mondád: csak szóbeszéd; tanács és erõ [kell] a hadakozáshoz; vajjon kihez bíztál, hogy fellázadtál ellenem? 21 Ímé, ebben a törött nádszálban bizakodol, Égyiptomban, melyhez ha ki támaszkodik, bemegy az õ kezébe és általlikasztja? Ilyen a Faraó, Égyiptom királya mindenekhez, a kik õ hozzá bíznak! 22 Vagy azt akarjátok nékem mondani: Mi az Úrban, a mi Istenünkben bízunk; hát nem ez-é az, a kinek magaslatait és oltárait lerontotta Ezékiás, és mind Júdának, mind Jeruzsálemnek megparancsolta: Ez oltár elõtt imádkozzatok Jeruzsálemben? 23 Nosza, fogadj hát az én urammal, Assiria királyával: Én néked kétezer lovat adok, ha tudsz reájok adni annyi lovast. 24 Hogy verhetnél hát vissza az én uram legkisebb hadnagyai közül csak egyet is, és hogyan bízhatol Égyiptomhoz a szekerek és a lovagok miatt? 25 Vajjon az Úr [tudta] nélkül jöttem-é fel e hely ellen, hogy azt elveszessem? Az Úr mondotta nékem: Menj fel e föld ellen, és veszesd el azt! 26 És monda Eliákim, a Hilkia fia, és Sebna és Joákh Rabsakénak: Beszélj, kérlek, a te szolgáiddal siriai nyelven, mert jól értjük; és ne beszélj velünk zsidóul e nép füle hallatára, a mely a kõfalon van. 27 És felele nékik Rabsaké: Vajjon a te uradhoz, vagy te hozzád küldött-é engem az én uram, hogy elmondjam e dolgokat, avagy nem [inkább] e férfiakhoz-é, a kik a kõfalon ülnek, hogy azután veletek együtt egyék meg a saját ganéjokat, és igyák meg a saját vizeletöket? 28 És oda állott Rabsaké, és hangosan kezdett zsidóul beszélni, mondván: Halljátok meg a királynak, Assiria nagy királyának beszédit! 29 Azt mondja a király: Meg ne csaljon titeket Ezékiás; mert nem szabadíthat meg titeket az õ kezébõl. 30 És ne biztasson titeket Ezékiás az Úrral, ezt mondván: Kétség nélkül megszabadít minket az Úr, és nem adatik e város az assiria király kezébe. 31 Ne hallgassatok Ezékiásra; mert így szól Assiria királya: Békéljetek meg velem, és jõjjetek ki hozzám, és kiki egyék az õ szõlõjébõl és fügefájáról, és igyék az õ kútjának vizébõl; 32 Míg eljövök és elviszlek titeket a ti földetekhez hasonló földre, gabonás és boros földre, kenyeres és szõlõs földre, olajfás, és mézes földre, hogy élhessetek és meg ne haljatok. Ne higyjetek Ezékiásnak, mert félrevezet benneteket, mikor azt mondja: Az Úr megszabadít minket! 33 Vajjon megszabadították-é a pogányok istenei, mindenik a maga földjét Assiria királyának kezébõl? 34 Hol vannak Hámátnak és Arphádnak istenei? Hol Sefárvaimnak, Hénának és Hivvának istenei? És Samariát is megszabadították-é az én kezembõl? 35 Kicsoda a földön való minden istenek közül, a ki megszabadíthatta volna az õ földjét az én kezembõl, hogy az Úr is kiszabadíthatná Jeruzsálemet az én kezembõl? 36 De a nép csak hallgatott, és nem felelt néki csak egy igét sem; mert a király megparancsolta volt, mondván: Ne feleljetek néki. 37 És elment Eliákim, a Hilkia fia, a [király] házának gondviselõje, és Sebna, az íródeák, és Joákh, az Asáf fia, az emlékíró, Ezékiáshoz megszaggatott ruhákban, és elmondák néki Rabsaké beszédit.
Indonesian(i) 1 Pada tahun ketiga pemerintahan Raja Hosea anak Ela atas Israel, Hizkia anak Ahas menjadi raja Yehuda. 2 Pada waktu itu ia berumur 25 tahun dan ia memerintah di Yerusalem 29 tahun lamanya. Ibunya bernama Abia anak Zakharia. 3 Hizkia melakukan yang menyenangkan hati TUHAN seperti Raja Daud leluhurnya. 4 Ia menghancurkan tempat-tempat penyembahan dewa, dan merobohkan tugu-tugunya serta merusak patung-patung Dewi Asyera. Ia juga menghancurkan ular perunggu buatan Musa yang disebut Nehustan. Sebab, sampai pada waktu itu orang Israel masih membakar dupa untuk menghormati ular perunggu itu. 5 Di antara semua raja Yehuda, baik yang sebelum maupun yang sesudah Hizkia, tidak ada yang seperti dia. Ia percaya kepada TUHAN, Allah Israel, 6 dan setia kepada-Nya. Tidak pernah ia melawan TUHAN. Segala perintah TUHAN yang diberikan melalui Musa, ditaati oleh Hizkia dengan sungguh-sungguh. 7 Itu sebabnya TUHAN tetap menolongnya sehingga ia berhasil dalam segala usahanya. Ia memberontak terhadap raja Asyur, dan tidak mau takluk kepadanya. 8 Ia mengalahkan orang Filistin, dan merampoki tempat tinggal mereka, dari desa yang paling kecil sampai kota yang paling besar, termasuk Gaza dan wilayah di sekelilingnya. 9 Pada tahun keempat pemerintahan Hizkia, yaitu tahun ketujuh pemerintahan Raja Hosea atas Israel, Salmaneser raja Asyur menyerang Israel dan mengepung Samaria. 10 Setelah dikepung tiga tahun lamanya, Samaria jatuh. Itu terjadi pada tahun keenam pemerintahan Hizkia, dan tahun kesembilan pemerintahan Hosea. 11 Kemudian raja Asyur mengangkut orang Israel sebagai tawanan ke Asyur; sebagian dari mereka ditempatkannya di kota Halah, sebagian di dekat Sungai Habor di wilayah Gozan, dan sebagian lagi di kota-kota di negeri Madai. 12 Samaria jatuh karena orang Israel tidak taat kepada TUHAN, Allah mereka. Mereka mengingkari perjanjian yang dibuat TUHAN dengan mereka, dan mereka melanggar semua perintah Musa, hamba-Nya. Mereka tidak mau mendengar dan tidak mau menurut. 13 Dalam tahun keempat belas pemerintahan Hizkia raja Yehuda, kota-kota Yehuda yang berbenteng diserang dan dikalahkan oleh Sanherib, raja Asyur. 14 Maka kepada Sanherib yang berada di Lakhis, Hizkia mengirim berita ini, "Saya telah bersalah. Sebab itu, saya mohon sudilah Tuan menghentikan serangan terhadap kami. Semua tuntutan Tuan akan saya penuhi." Sanherib menjawab bahwa Hizkia harus mengirim kepadanya 10.000 kilogram perak, dan 1.000 kilogram emas. 15 Karena itu, semua perak yang ada di dalam Rumah TUHAN dan di dalam kas istana dikirim oleh Hizkia kepada Sanherib. 16 Emas pada pintu-pintu Rumah TUHAN dan yang telah dipasang Hizkia sendiri pada ambang-ambang pintu, diambilnya dan dikirim juga kepada Sanherib. 17 Tetapi raja Asyur itu mengirim dari Lakhis sebuah pasukan besar untuk menyerang Yerusalem. Pasukan itu dipimpin oleh tiga perwira tinggi yaitu seorang panglima, seorang juru minuman, dan seorang kepala pengawal raja. Setelah tiba di kota itu mereka mengambil tempat di ladang, yang disebut Ladang Penatu dekat selokan yang mengalirkan air dari kolam bagian atas. 18 Lalu mereka berteriak memanggil Raja Hizkia. Maka tiga orang pegawai Hizkia keluar menemui mereka. Ketiga pegawai itu ialah Elyakim anak Hilkia kepala rumah tangga istana, Sebna sekretaris negara, dan Yoah anak Asaf sekretaris istana. 19 Salah seorang perwira Asyur itu berkata kepada mereka, "Sampaikanlah kepada Hizkia perkataan raja Asyur ini: 'Mengapa engkau merasa dirimu kuat? 20 Engkau kira perkataan saja dapat menggantikan siasat dan kekuatan tentara? Siapakah yang kauandalkan, sehingga engkau berani melawan Asyur? 21 Engkau memang mengharapkan bantuan Mesir, tetapi itu sama seperti memakai batang alang-alang untuk tongkat; nanti tongkat itu patah dan tanganmu tertusuk. Begitulah raja Mesir bagi semua orang yang berharap kepadanya.'" 22 Selanjutnya perwira Asyur itu berkata, "Atau barangkali kamu berkata bahwa kamu berharap kepada TUHAN, Allahmu? Pada waktu Hizkia memerintahkan supaya orang Yehuda dan Yerusalem hanya beribadat di depan mezbah di Yerusalem, bukankah yang dimusnahkannya itu mezbah dan tempat-tempat penyembahan kepada TUHAN sendiri? 23 Sekarang atas nama raja Asyur aku berani bertaruh bahwa kalau kamu diberi 2.000 ekor kuda, pasti kamu tidak akan punya orang sebanyak itu untuk menungganginya! 24 Untuk melawan perwira kami yang paling rendah pun, kamu bukan tandingannya. Namun kamu mengharapkan juga Mesir mengirim bantuan kereta perang dan pasukan berkuda! 25 Kamu mengira kami menyerang dan mengalahkan negerimu tanpa bantuan TUHAN? TUHAN sendirilah yang menyuruh kami menyerang dan menghancurkannya!" 26 Lalu kata Elyakim, Sebna, dan Yoah kepada perwira itu, "Tuan, bicara saja dalam bahasa Aram dengan kami, kami mengerti. Jangan memakai bahasa Ibrani, nanti dimengerti rakyat di atas tembok kota itu." 27 Sahut perwira itu, "Apakah kepada kamu dan rajamu saja aku diutus raja Asyur untuk menyampaikan semua ini? Tidak! Aku juga bicara kepada rakyat yang duduk di tembok itu, yang bersama dengan kamu akan makan kotorannya sendiri dan minum air seninya sendiri." 28 Kemudian perwira itu berdiri dan berteriak dalam bahasa Ibrani, "Dengarkan apa yang dikatakan oleh raja Asyur: 29 'Jangan mau ditipu Hizkia; ia tak bisa menyelamatkan kamu. 30 Jangan dengarkan bujukannya untuk berharap kepada TUHAN. Jangan kira TUHAN akan menyelamatkan kamu atau mencegah tentara Asyur merebut kotamu. 31 Jangan dengarkan Hizkia. Aku, raja Asyur menganjurkan supaya kamu keluar dari kota dan menyerah. Nanti kamu boleh makan buah anggur dari kebunmu sendiri, dan menikmati buah ara dari pohonmu sendiri, serta minum air dari sumurmu sendiri, 32 sampai kamu kupindahkan ke suatu negeri yang mirip negerimu sendiri. Di sana ada kebun anggur yang menghasilkan anggur bagimu, dan ladang gandum yang menghasilkan tepung untuk makananmu. Di negeri itu ada banyak pohon zaitun, minyak zaitun dan madu. Kalau kamu menuruti apa yang kuanjurkan kepadamu, kamu akan hidup, tidak mati. Jangan dengarkan Hizkia! Dia hanya menipu kamu dengan berkata bahwa TUHAN akan menyelamatkan kamu. 33 Pernahkah dewa bangsa lain menyelamatkan negerinya dari kekuasaanku? 34 Di manakah dewa-dewa negeri Hamat dan Arpad? Di manakah dewa-dewa Sefarwaim, Hena, dan Iwa? Adakah yang datang menyelamatkan Samaria? 35 Dewa manakah pernah melepaskan negerinya dari kekuasaanku? Mana bisa TUHAN menyelamatkan Yerusalem?'" 36 Mendengar itu, penduduk Yerusalem tidak menjawab, sebab Raja Hizkia sudah memerintahkan supaya mereka diam saja. 37 Maka Elyakim, Sebna, dan Yoah merobek pakaian mereka tanda sedih, lalu pergi melaporkan kepada raja apa yang telah dikatakan oleh perwira Asyur itu.
Italian(i) 1 OR l’anno terzo di Osea, figliuolo di Ela, re d’Israele, Ezechia, figliuolo di Achaz, re di Giuda, cominciò a regnare. 2 Egli era d’età di venticinque anni, quando cominciò a regnare; e regnò ventinove anni in Gerusalemme. E il nome di sua madre era Abi, figliuola di Zaccaria. 3 Egli fece quello che piace al Signore, interamente come avea fatto Davide, suo padre. 4 Egli tolse via gli alti luoghi, e spezzò le statue, e tagliò i boschi, e stritolò il serpente di rame che Mosè avea fatto; perciocchè infino a quel tempo i figliuoli d’Israele gli facevano profumi; e lo chiamò Nehustan. 5 Egli mise la sua confidenza nel Signore Iddio d’Israele; e giammai, nè davanti nè dopo lui, non vi è stato alcuno pari a lui, fra tutti i re di Giuda. 6 E si attenne al Signore, e non si rivolse indietro da lui; anzi osservò i comandamenti ch’egli avea dati a Mosè. 7 Laonde il Signore fu con lui; dovunque egli andava, prosperava. Ed egli si ribellò dal re degli Assiri, e non gli fu più soggetto. 8 Egli percosse i Filistei fino in Gaza, e i confini di essa, dalle torri delle guardie, fino alle città forti. 9 OR avvenne l’anno quarto del re Ezechia, ch’era il settimo di Osea, figliuolo di Ela, re d’Israele, che Salmaneser, re degli Assiri, salì contro a Samaria, e l’assediò. 10 Ed in capo di tre anni fu presa; l’anno sesto d’Ezechia, ch’era il nono di Osea, re d’Israele, Samaria fu presa. 11 E il re degli Assiri menò gl’Israeliti in cattività in Assiria, e li fece condurre in Hala, ed in Habor, presso al fiume Gozan, e nelle città di Media; 12 perciocchè non aveano ubbidito alla voce del Signore Iddio loro, ed aveano trasgredito il suo patto; tutto quello che Mosè, servitor di Dio, avea comandato, essi non aveano ubbidito, e non l’aveano messo in opera. 13 Poi l’anno quartodecimo del re Ezechia, Sennacherib, re degli Assiri, salì contro a tutte le città forti di Giuda, e le prese. 14 Ed Ezechia, re di Giuda, mandò a dire al re degli Assiri, in Lachis: Io ho fallito; partiti da me, ed io pagherò quello che tu m’imporrai. E il re degli Assiri impose ad Ezechia, re di Giuda, trecento talenti d’argento, e trenta talenti d’oro. 15 Ed Ezechia diede tutto l’argento, che si trovò nella Casa del Signore, e ne’ tesori della casa reale. 16 In quel tempo Ezechia spiccò dalle reggi del Tempio del Signore e dagli stipiti, le piastre d’oro, con le quali egli stesso li avea coperti, e le diede al re degli Assiri. 17 Poi il re degli Assiri mandò al re Ezechia, da Lachis in Gerusalemme, Tartan, e Rab-saris, e Rab-sache, con un grande stuolo. Ed essi salirono, e vennero in Gerusalemme. Ed essendo arrivati, si fermarono presso dell’acquidotto dello stagno disopra, ch’è nella strada del campo del purgator di panni; 18 e gridarono al re. Allora Eliachim, figliuolo di Hilchia, mastro del palazzo, e Sebna, segretario, e Ioa, figliuolo di Asaf, cancelliere, uscirono a loro. 19 E Rab-sache disse loro: Dite pur ora ad Ezechia: Così ha detto il gran re, il re degli Assiri: Quale è questa confidenza che tu hai avuta? 20 Tu dici, ma non sono che parole di labbra, che tu hai consiglio e forza per la guerra. Ora dunque, in cui ti sei tu confidato, che tu ti sei ribellato contro a me? 21 Ecco, ora tu ti sei confidato in quel sostegno di canna rotta, nell’Egitto, sopra il quale se alcuno si appoggia, esso gli entra nella mano, e la fora; tale è Faraone, re di Egitto, a tutti quelli che si confidano in lui. 22 E se voi mi dite: Noi ci confidiamo nel Signore Iddio nostro, non è egli quello, i cui alti luoghi ed altari Ezechia ha tolti via; e ha detto a Giuda ed a Gerusalemme: Voi adorerete solo dinanzi a questo Altare in Gerusalemme? 23 Deh! scommetti ora col mio signore, re degli Assiri; e io ti darò duemila cavalli, se tu puoi dare altrettanti uomini che li cavalchino. 24 E come faresti tu voltar faccia all’uno de’ capitani d’infra i minimi servitori del mio signore? ma tu ti sei confidato nell’Egitto per de’ carri, e della gente a cavallo. 25 Ora, sono io forse salito contro questo luogo, per guastarlo, senza il Signore? Il Signore mi ha detto: Sali contro a quel paese, e guastalo. 26 Allora Eliachim, figliuolo di Hilchia, e Sebna, e Ioa, dissero a Rabsache: Deh! parla a’ tuoi servitori in lingua siriaca, perciocchè noi l’intendiamo; e non parlar con noi in lingua giudaica, udente il popolo ch’è sopra le mura. 27 Ma Rab-sache rispose loro: Il mio signore mi ha egli mandato a dir queste parole al tuo signore, o a te? non mi ha egli mandato a quelli che stanno su le mura, per protestar loro che farà loro mangiare il loro sterco, e bere la loro urina insieme con voi? 28 Poi Rab-sache si rizzò in piè e gridò ad alta voce in lingua giudaica, e parlò, e disse: Ascoltate la parola del gran re, re degli Assiri: 29 Così ha detto il re: Ezechia non v’inganni; perciocchè egli non potrà liberarvi dalla mia mano. 30 E non vi faccia Ezechia confidar nel Signore, dicendo: Il Signore per certo ci libererà, e questa città non sarà data nelle mani del re degli Assiri. 31 Non ascoltate Ezechia; perciocchè il re degli Assiri ha detto così: Fate pace meco, ed uscite a me; e ciascun di voi mangi della sua vite, e del suo fico, e beva dell’acqua della sua cisterna; 32 finchè io venga, e vi meni in un paese simile al vostro; paese di frumento e di mosto; paese di pane e di vigne; paese d’ulivi da olio, e di miele; e voi viverete, e non morrete: e non ascoltate Ezechia; perciocchè egli v’inganna, dicendo: Il Signore ci libererà. 33 Ha pure alcuno degl’iddii delle genti liberato il suo paese dalle mani del re degli Assiri? 34 Dove sono gl’iddii di Hamat e di Arpad? dove gl’iddii di Sefarvaim, di Hena, e d’Ivva? hanno pure essi liberata Samaria dalla mia mano? 35 Quali son quegli dii, d’infra tutti gl’iddii di que’ paesi, che abbiano liberato il lor paese dalla mia mano; che il Signore abbia da liberar Gerusalemme dalla mia mano? 36 E il popolo tacque, e non gli rispose nulla; perciocchè tale era il comandamento del re: Non gli rispondete nulla. 37 Ed Eliachim, figliuolo di Hilchia, mastro del palazzo, e Sebna, segretario, e Ioa, figliuolo di Asaf, cancelliere, vennero al re Ezechia co’ vestimenti stracciati, e gli rapportarono le parole di Rab-sache.
ItalianRiveduta(i) 1 Or l’anno terzo di Hosea, figliuolo d’Ela, re d’Israele, cominciò a regnare Ezechia, figliuolo di Achaz, re di Giuda. 2 Avea venticinque anni quando cominciò a regnare, e regnò ventinove anni a Gerusalemme. Sua madre si chiamava Abi, figliuola di Zaccaria. 3 Egli fece ciò ch’è giusto agli occhi dell’Eterno, interamente come avea fatto Davide suo padre. 4 Soppresse gli alti luoghi, frantumò le statue, abbatté l’idolo d’Astarte, e fece a pezzi il serpente di rame che Mosè avea fatto; perché i figliuoli d’Israele gli aveano fino a quel tempo offerto profumi; ei lo chiamò Nehushtan. 5 Egli ripose la sua fiducia nell’Eterno, nell’Iddio d’Israele; e fra tutti i re di Giuda che vennero dopo di lui o che lo precedettero non ve ne fu alcuno simile a lui. 6 Si tenne unito all’Eterno, non cessò di seguirlo, e osservò i comandamenti che l’Eterno avea dati Mosè. 7 E l’Eterno fu con Ezechia, che riusciva in tutte le sue imprese. Si ribellò al re d’Assiria, e non gli fu più soggetto; 8 sconfisse i Filistei fino a Gaza, e ne devastò il territorio, dalle torri dei guardiani alle città fortificate. 9 Il quarto anno del re Ezechia, ch’era il settimo anno di Hosea, figliuolo d’Ela re d’Israele, Shalmaneser, re d’Assiria, salì contro Samaria e l’assediò. 10 In capo a tre anni, la prese; il sesto anno di Ezechia, ch’era il nono anno di Hosea, re d’Israele, Samaria fu presa. 11 E il re d’Assiria trasportò gl’Israeliti in Assiria, e li collocò in Halah, e sullo Habor, fiume di Gozan, e nelle città dei Medi, 12 perché non aveano ubbidito alla voce dell’Eterno, dell’Iddio loro, ed aveano trasgredito il suo patto, cioè tutto quello che Mosè, servo dell’Eterno, avea comandato; essi non l’aveano né ascoltato, né messo in pratica. 13 Or il quattordicesimo anno del re Ezechia, Sennacherib, re d’Assiria, salì contro tutte le città fortificate di Giuda, e le prese. 14 Ed Ezechia, re di Giuda, mandò a dire al re d’Assiria a Lakis: "Ho mancato; ritirati da me, ed io mi sottometterò a tutto quello che m’imporrai". E il re d’Assiria impose ad Ezechia, re di Giuda, trecento talenti d’argento e trenta talenti d’oro. 15 Ezechia diede tutto l’argento che si trovava nella casa dell’Eterno, e nei tesori della casa del re. 16 E fu allora che Ezechia, re di Giuda, staccò dalle porte del tempio dell’Eterno e dagli stipiti le lame d’oro di cui egli stesso li avea ricoperti, e le diede al re d’Assiria. 17 E il re d’Assiria mandò ad Ezechia da Lakis a Gerusalemme, Tartan, Rabsaris e Rabshaké con un grande esercito. Essi salirono e giunsero a Gerusalemme. E, come furon giunti, vennero a fermarsi presso l’acquedotto dello stagno superiore, che è sulla strada del campo del lavator di panni. 18 Chiamarono il re; ed Eliakim, figliuolo di Hilkia, prefetto del palazzo, si recò da loro con Scebna, il segretario e Joah figliuolo di Asaf, l’archivista. 19 E Rabshaké disse loro: "Andate a dire ad Ezechia: Così parla il gran re, il re d’Assiria: Che fiducia è cotesta che tu hai? 20 Tu dici che consiglio e forza per far la guerra non son che parole vane; ma in chi metti la tua fiducia per ardire di ribellarti a me? 21 Ecco, tu t’appoggi sull’Egitto, su questo sostegno di canna rotta, che penetra nella mano di chi vi s’appoggia e gliela fora; tal è Faraone, re d’Egitto, per tutti quelli che confidano in lui. 22 Forse mi direte: Noi confidiamo nell’Eterno, nel nostro Dio. Ma non è egli quello stesso di cui Ezechia ha soppresso gli alti luoghi e gli altari, dicendo a Giuda e a Gerusalemme: Voi adorerete soltanto dinanzi a questo altare a Gerusalemme? 23 Or dunque fa’ una scommessa col mio signore; il re d’Assiria! Io ti darò duemila cavalli, se tu puoi fornire altrettanti cavalieri da montarli. 24 E come potresti tu far voltar le spalle a un solo capitano tra gl’infimi servi del mio signore? E confidi nell’Egitto, a motivo de’ suoi carri e de’ suoi cavalieri! 25 E adesso sono io forse salito senza il volere dell’Eterno contro questo luogo per distruggerlo? L’Eterno m’ha detto: Sali contro questo paese e distruggilo". 26 Allora Eliakim, figliuolo di Hilkia, Scebna e Joah dissero a Rabshaké: "Ti prego, parla ai tuoi servi in aramaico, perché noi lo intendiamo; e non ci parlare in lingua giudaica, in guisa che la gente che sta sulle mura oda". 27 Ma Rabshaké rispose loro: "Forse che il mio signore m’ha mandato a dir queste cose al tuo signore e a te? Non m’ha egli mandato a dirle a quegli uomini che stan seduti sulle mura e saran quanto prima ridotti a mangiare il loro sterco e a bere la loro orina con voi?" 28 Allora Rabshaké, stando in piè, gridò al alta voce, e disse in lingua giudaica: "Udite la parola del gran re, del re d’Assiria! 29 Così parla il re: Non v’inganni Ezechia; poich’egli non potrà liberarvi dalle mie mani; 30 né v’induca Ezechia a confidarvi nell’Eterno, dicendo: L’Eterno ci libererà certamente, e questa città non sarà data nelle mani del re d’Assiria. 31 Non date ascolto ad Ezechia, perché così dice il re d’Assiria: Fate pace con me e arrendetevi a me, e ognuno di voi mangerà del frutto della sua vigna e del suo fico, e berrà dell’acqua della sua cisterna, 32 finch’io venga e vi meni in un paese simile al vostro: paese di grano e di vino, paese di pane e di vigne, paese d’ulivi da olio e di miele; e voi vivrete, e non morrete. Non date dunque ascolto ad Ezechia, quando cerca d’ingannarvi dicendo: L’Eterno ci libererà. 33 Ha qualcuno degli dèi delle genti liberato il proprio paese dalle mani del re d’Assiria? 34 Dove sono gli dèi di Hamath e d’Arpad? Dove sono gli dèi di Sefarvaim, di Hena e d’Ivva? Hanno essi liberata Samaria dalla mia mano? 35 Quali sono, tra tutti gli dèi di quei paesi, quelli che abbiano liberato il paese loro dalla mia mano? L’Eterno avrebb’egli a liberar dalla mia mano Gerusalemme?" 36 E il popolo si tacque, e non gli rispose nulla; poiché il re avea dato quest’ordine: "Non gli rispondete!" 37 Allora Eliakim, figliuolo di Hilkia, prefetto del palazzo, Scebna il segretario, e Joab figliuolo d’Asaf, l’archivista, vennero da Ezechia con le vesti stracciate, e gli riferirono le parole di Rabshaké.

Lithuanian(i) 1 Trečiaisiais Elos sūnaus Ozėjo, Izraelio karaliaus, metais pradėjo karaliauti Judo karaliaus Ahazo sūnus Ezekijas. 2 Pradėdamas karaliauti, jis buvo dvidešimt penkerių metų ir valdė Jeruzalėje dvidešimt devynerius metus. Jo motina buvo vardu Abija, Zacharijos duktė. 3 Jis darė tai, kas teisinga Viešpaties akyse, kaip ir jo tėvas Dovydas. 4 Ezekijas panaikino aukštumas, sudaužė atvaizdus, iškirto giraites, į gabalus sudaužė varinę gyvatę, kurią padarė Mozė. Nes iki to laiko izraelitai dar tebesmilkė jai ir vadino ją Nehuštanu. 5 Ezekijas pasitikėjo Viešpačiu, Izraelio Dievu. Tokio karaliaus Jude nebuvo nei iki jo, nei po jo. 6 Jis glaudėsi prie Viešpaties ir nepaliovė sekti Jį bei vykdė įsakymus, kuriuos Viešpats davė Mozei. 7 Viešpats buvo su juo, ir visur, kur jis ėjo, jam sekėsi. Jis sukilo prieš Asirijos karalių ir netarnavo jam. 8 Ezekijas nugalėjo filistinus iki Gazos ir jos apylinkių, nuo sargybų bokštų iki sutvirtintų miestų. 9 Ketvirtaisiais karaliaus Ezekijo metais, kurie buvo septintieji Izraelio karaliaus Ozėjo, Elos sūnaus, metai, Asirijos karalius Šalmaneseras atėjo prieš Samariją ir ją apgulė. 10 Trečiųjų metų pabaigoje ją paėmė. Tai įvyko šeštaisiais Ezekijo ir devintaisiais Izraelio karaliaus Ozėjo metais. 11 Asirijos karalius išvedė izraelitus į Asiriją ir juos apgyvendino Halache, Habore prie Gozano upės ir medų miestuose, 12 nes jie nepakluso Viešpaties, savo Dievo, balsui ir sulaužė Jo sandorą; jie neklausė ir nevykdė, ką Viešpaties tarnas Mozė buvo įsakęs. 13 Keturioliktais karaliaus Ezekijo metais Asirijos karalius Senheribas puolė visus sutvirtintus Judo miestus ir juos paėmė. 14 Tada Judo karalius Ezekijas siuntė pas Asirijos karalių į Lachišą, sakydamas: “Nusikaltau, pasitrauk nuo manęs. Ko reikalausi, padarysiu”. Asirijos karalius uždėjo Judo karaliui Ezekijui tris šimtus talentų sidabro ir trisdešimt talento aukso duoklę. 15 Ezekijas atidavė visą sidabrą, kurį surado Viešpaties namuose ir karaliaus rūmų ižde. 16 Ezekijas nuplėšė auksą nuo Viešpaties šventyklos durų ir staktų, kurias jis buvo padengęs, ir atidavė Asirijos karaliui. 17 Asirijos karalius siuntė iš Lachišo Tartaną, Rabsarį ir Rabšakę su didele kariuomene prieš Jeruzalę. Jie atėjo į Jeruzalę ir sustojo prie aukštutinio vandentiekio tvenkinio, vėlėjo lauke. 18 Jie pašaukė karalių. Išėjo pas juos rūmų viršininkas Eljakimas, Hilkijo sūnus, raštininkas Šebna ir metraštininkas Joahas, Asafo sūnus. 19 Rabšakė jiems tarė: “Taip sakykite Ezekijui: ‘Taip sako didysis karalius, Asirijos karalius: ‘Kuo remiasi tavo pasitikėjimas? 20 Tu kalbi tuščius žodžius, o karui reikalingas patarimas ir jėga. Kuo pasitiki, kad sukilai prieš mane? 21 Ar ketini atsiremti į Egiptą, šitą sulūžusią nendrę? Pasirėmus į ją, ji įsminga į ranką ir ją perduria. Toks yra faraonas, Egipto karalius, visiems, kurie juo pasitiki. 22 O jei sakysite: ‘Mes pasitikime Viešpačiu, savo Dievu’, tai ar ne Jo aukštumas ir aukurus pašalino Ezekijas ir paliepė Judui bei Jeruzalei: ‘Jūs garbinsite prie šito aukuro Jeruzalėje’? 23 Taigi dabar lenktyniauk su mano valdovu, Asirijos karaliumi; aš tau duosiu du tūkstančius žirgų, jei tu surinksi tiek raitelių ant jų joti. 24 Ar gali pasipriešinti silpniausiam mano valdovo tarnų būriui, nors ir pasitiki Egipto vežimais ir raiteliais? 25 Ar aš be Viešpaties ėjau į šitą vietą, kad ją sunaikinčiau? Viešpats man pasakė: ‘Eik ir sunaikink tą kraštą’ ”. 26 Tuomet Hilkijo sūnus Eljakimas, Joahas ir Šebna tarė Rabšakei: “Kalbėk su savo tarnais aramėjiškai, mes suprantame; nekalbėk su mumis žydiškai, girdint žmonėms ant sienų”. 27 Bet Rabšakė atsakė: “Ar mano valdovas siuntė mane tik pas tavo valdovą ir tave kalbėti šituos žodžius? Ar ne pas vyrus, kurie sėdi ant sienos, kad valgytų su jumis savo išmatas bei gertų savo šlapimą?” 28 Rabšakė atsistojo ir garsiai šaukė žydiškai: “Klausykite didžiojo karaliaus, Asirijos karaliaus, žodžių! 29 Taip sako karalius: ‘Nesiduokite Ezekijo suvedžiojami, nes jis neišgelbės jūsų iš mano rankos! 30 Teneįtikina jūsų Ezekijas pasitikėti Viešpačiu, sakydamas: ‘Viešpats tikrai mus išgelbės ir neatiduos šito miesto į Asirijos karaliaus rankas’. 31 Neklausykite Ezekijo, nes taip sako Asirijos karalius: ‘Padarykite su manimi sutartį ir išeikite pas mane. Kiekvienas valgysite nuo savo vynmedžio, nuo savo figmedžio ir gersite vandenį iš savo šulinio, 32 kol aš ateisiu ir išvesiu jus į žemę, panašią į jūsų žemę, pilną javų, vyno, duonos, vynuogių, alyvmedžių ir medaus, kad galėtumėte gyventi ir nemirti. Neklausykite Ezekijo, kai jis jus įtikinėja, sakydamas: ‘Viešpats mus išgelbės’. 33 Argi kuris nors iš tautų dievų išgelbėjo savo kraštą iš Asirijos karaliaus rankos? 34 Kur yra Hamato ir Arpado dievai? Kur Sefarvaimo, Henos ir Ivos dievai? Ar jie išgelbėjo Samariją iš mano rankos? 35 Kuris iš dievų išgelbėjo savo kraštą iš mano rankos, kad Viešpats išgelbėtų Jeruzalę iš mano rankos?’ ” 36 Žmonės tylėjo ir neatsakė jam nė žodžio, nes toks buvo karaliaus įsakymas: “Neatsakykite jam”. 37 Rūmų viršininkas Hilkijo sūnus Eljakimas, raštininkas Šebna ir Asafo sūnus Joahas, metraštininkas, atėjo pas Ezekiją perplėštais drabužiais ir jam perdavė Rabšakės žodžius.
PBG(i) 1 Roku trzeciego Ozeasza, syna Eli, króla Izraelskiego, królował Ezechyjasz, syn Achaza, króla Judzkiego. 2 Dwadzieścia i pięć lat mu było, gdy począł królować, a dwadzieścia i dziewięć lat królował w Jeruzalemie. Imię matki jego było Abi, córka Zacharyjaszowa. 3 I czynił co było dobrego przed oczyma Pańskiemi, według wszystkiego, jako czynił Dawid, ojciec jego. 4 On zniósł wyżyny, i skruszył bałwany, i powycinał gaje, a pokruszył węża miedzianego, którego był uczynił Mojżesz; bo aż do onych dni Izraelczycy kadzili mu, i nazwał go Nehustan. 5 W Panu Bogu Izraelskim ufał; a po nim nie był żaden podobny jemu między wszystkimi królami Judzkimi, i którzy byli przed nim. 6 Bo się trzymał Pana, nie odstępując od niego, a strzegąc przykazania jego, które był przykazał Pan Mojżeszowi. 7 A Pan był z nim; i we wszystkiem, do czego się obrócił, szczęściło mu się. Wybił się też z mocy królowi Assyryjskiemu, i nie służył mu. 8 Tenże poraził Filistyny aż do Gazy i granic jego, od wieży strażników aż do miasta obronnego. 9 Roku czwartego króla Ezechyjasza, (który był rok siódmy Ozeasza, syna Eli, króla Izraelskiego) wyciągnął Salmanaser, król Assyryjski, przeciwko Samaryi, i obległ ją. 10 A wziął ją przy dokończeniu trzeciego roku; roku szóstego Ezechyjasza,(który był rok dziewiąty Ozeasza, króla Izraelskiego) wzięta jest Samaryja. 11 Tedy przeniósł król Assyryjski Izraela do Assyryi, i osadził nimi Halach i Habor u rzeki Gazan, i miasta Medskie. 12 Przeto, iż nie posłuchali głosu Pana Boga swego, ale przestępowali przymierze jego, i tego wszystkiego, co rozkazał Mojżesz, sługa Pański, nie słuchali i nie czynili. 13 Potem czternastego roku króla Ezechyjasza ruszył się Sennacheryb, król Assyryjski, przeciw wszystkim miastom Judzkim obronnym, i wziął je. 14 A tak posłał Ezechyjasz, król Judzki, do króla Assyryjskiego, do Lachys, mówiąc: Zgrzeszyłem; odciągnij odemnie, cokolwiek na mię włożysz, poniosę. Tedy włożył król Assyryjski na Ezechyjasza, króla Judzkiego, dań trzy sta talentów srebra, i trzydzieści talentów złota. 15 I dał Ezechyjasz wszystko srebro, które się znalazło w domu Pańskim i w skarbach domu królewskiego. 16 Onegoż czasu obłupił Ezechyjasz drzwi domu Pańskiego, i słupy, które samże Ezechyjasz, król Judzki, był obył, a dał je królowi Assyryjskiemu. 17 Wszakże posłał król Assyryjski Tartana, i Rabsarysa, i Rabsacesa z Lachys do króla Ezechyjasza z wielkiem wojskiem do Jeruzalemu. Którzy wyciągnąwszy przyjechali ku Jeruzalemowi, a przyciągnąwszy przyszli i położyli się u rur sadzawki wyższej, która jest podle drogi brukowanej na polu blecharzowem. 18 A gdy wołali na króla, wyszedł do nich Elijakim, syn Helkijaszowy, przełożony nad domem, i Sobna pisarz, i Joach syn Asafowy, kanclerz. 19 I rzekł do nich Rabsaces: Proszę powiedzcie Ezechyjaszowi: Tak mówi król wielki, król Assyryjski: Co to za ufność, na której się wspierasz? 20 Mówiłeś: (aleć to słowa daremne) Rady i mocy mam dosyć do wojny. A teraz w kimże ufasz, żeś mi się sprzeciwił? 21 Oto teraz spolegasz na Egipcie, jako na lasce trzcinnej, i to nałamanej, którą jeźliby się kto podpierał, tedy wnijdzie w rękę jego i przekole ją. Takić jest Farao, król Egipski, wszystkim, co w nim ufają. 22 A jeźli mi rzeczecie: W Panu Bogu naszym ufność mamy: azaż nie ten jest, którego zniósł Ezechyjasz wyżyny i ołtarze? i rozkazał Judzie i Jeruzalemowi, mówiąc: Przed tym ołtarzem kłaniać się będziecie w Jeruzalemie. 23 Przetoż teraz zaręcz się królowi Assyryjskiemu, panu memu, a dam ci dwa tysiące koni; będzieszli mógł mieć jezdnych tak wiele do dnich? 24 I jakoż się ty możesz oprzeć hetmanowi jednemu najmniejszemu z sług pana mego? choć pokładasz nadzieję w Egipcie dla wozów i jezdnych. 25 Nadto, czy bez woli Pańskiej przyciągnąłem przeciw temu miejscu, abym je zburzył? Pan mówi do mnie: Idź do tej ziemi, a spustosz ją. 26 Tedy rzekł Elijakim, syn Helkijaszowy, i Sobna, i Joach do Rabsacesa: Proszę mów do sług twoich po syryjsku, boć rozumiemy; a nie mów z nami po żydowsku, gdzie słyszy lud, który jest na murze. 27 Którym odpowiedział Rabsaces: Azaż mię do pana twego, albo do ciebie przysłał Pan mój, abym te słowa mówił? Azaż nie do tych mężów, którzy siedzą na murze, aby jedli łajna swoje, i pili mocz swój z wami. 28 A tak stanąwszy Rabsaces wołał głosem wielkim po żydowsku, a mówiąc rzekł: Słuchajcie słów króla wielkiego, króla Assyryjskiego. 29 Tak mówi król: Niech was nie zwodzi Ezechyjasz; bo was nie będzie mógł wyrwać z ręki mojej. 30 A niech wam nie rozkazuje ufać Ezechyjasz w Panu, mówiąc: Pewnie nas wyrwie Pan, a nie będzie podane to miasto w ręce króla Assyryjskiego. 31 Nie słuchajcie Ezechyjasza. Albowiem tak mówi król Assyryjski: Uczyńcie ze mną przymierze, a wynijdźcie do mnie, a jedzcie każdy z winnicy swojej i każdy z figi swojej, i pijcie każdy wodę z studnicy swojej, 32 Aż przyjdę a pobiorę was do ziemi podobnej ziemi waszej, do ziemi żyznej i obfitującej winem, do ziemi chleba i winnic, do ziemi drzew oliwnych, i oliwy, i miodu; i będziecie żyli, a nie pomrzecie. Nie słuchajcież Ezechyjasza; bo was zwodzi, mó wiąc: Pan was wybawi. 33 Izaż mogli bogowie narodów wybawić każdy ziemię swoję, z ręki króla Assyryjskiego? 34 Gdzież jest bóg Emat i Arfad? gdzież jest bóg Sefarwaim, Ana i Awa? izali wyrwali Samaryję z rąk moich? 35 Któryż jest między wszystkimi bogi tych ziem, któryby wyrwał ziemię swoję z ręki mojej? A miałby Pan wyrwać Jeruzalem z ręki mojej? 36 Ale milczał lud, i nie odpowiedzieli mu słowa; bo takie było rozkazanie królewskie, mówiąc: Nie odpowiadajcie mu. 37 Przyszedł tedy Elijakim, syn Helkijaszowy, przełożony domu, i Sobna pisarz, i Joach, syn Asafowy, kanclerz, do Ezechyjasza, rozdarłszy szaty swe, i oznajmili mu słowa Rabsacesowe.
Portuguese(i) 1 Ora, sucedeu que, no terceiro ano de Oseias, filho de Elá, rei de Israel, começou a reinar Ezequias, filho de Acaz, rei de Judá. 2 Tinha vinte e cinco anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou vinte e nove anos em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe era Abi, filha de Zacarias. 3 Ele fez o que era recto aos olhos do Senhor, conforme tudo o que fizera David, seu pai. 4 Tirou os altos, quebrou as colunas, e deitou abaixo a Asera; e despedaçou a serpente de bronze que Moisés fizera (porquanto até aquele dia os filhos de Israel lhe queimavam incenso), e chamou-lhe Nehustan. 5 Confiou no Senhor Deus de Israel, de modo que depois dele não houve seu semelhante entre todos os reis de Judá, nem entre os que foram antes dele. 6 Porque se apegou ao Senhor; não se apartou de o seguir, e guardou os mandamentos que o Senhor ordenara a Moisés. 7 Assim o Senhor era com ele; para onde quer que saísse prosperava. Rebelou-se contra o rei da Assíria, e recusou servi-lo. 8 Feriu os filisteus até Gaza e os seus termos, desde a torre dos atalaias até a cidade fortificada. 9 No quarto ano do rei Ezequias que era o sétimo ano de Oseias, filho de Elá, rei de Israel, Salmanasar, rei da Assíria, subiu contra Samaria, e a cercou 10 e, ao fim de três anos, tomou-a. No ano sexto de Ezequias, que era o ano nono de Oseias, rei de Israel, Samaria foi tomada. 11 Depois o rei da Assíria levou Israel cativo para a Assíria, e os colocou em Hala, e junto ao Habor, rio de Gozan, e nas cidades dos medos; 12 porquanto não obedeceram à voz do senhor seu Deus, mas violaram o seu pacto, nada ouvindo nem fazendo de tudo quanto Moisés, servo do Senhor, tinha ordenado. 13 No ano décimo quarto do rei Ezequias, subiu Senaquerib, rei da Assíria, contra todas as cidades fortificadas de Judá, e as tomou. 14 Pelo que Ezequias, rei de Judá, enviou ao rei da Assíria, a Láquis, dizendo: Pequei; retira-te de mim; tudo o que me impuseres suportarei. Então o rei da Assíria impôs a Ezequias, rei de Judá, trezentos talentos de prata e trinta talentos de ouro. 15 Assim deu Ezequias toda a prata que se achou na casa do Senhor e nos tesouros da casa do rei. 16 Foi nesse tempo que Ezequias, rei de Judá, cortou das portas do templo do Senhor, e dos umbrais, o ouro de que ele mesmo os cobrira, e o deu ao rei da Assíria. 17 Contudo este enviou de Láquis o general do exército, o chefe dos eunucos e o copeiro-mor com um grande exército, ao rei Ezequias, a Jerusalém; e subiram, e vieram a Jerusalém. E, tendo chegado, pararam ao pé do aqueduto da piscina superior, que está junto ao caminho do campo do lavandeiro. 18 Havendo eles chamado o rei, saíram-lhes ao encontro Eliaquim, filho de Hilquias, o mordomo, e Sebna, o escrivão, e Joá, filho de Asaf, o cronista. 19 E Rabsaqué (o copeiro-mor) lhes disse: Dizei a Ezequias: Assim diz o grande rei, o rei da Assíria: Que confiança é essa em que te estribas? 20 Dizes (são, porém, palavras vãs): Há conselho e poder para a guerra. Em quem, pois, agora confias, que contra mim te revoltas? 21 Estás confiando nesse bordão de cana quebrada, que é o Egipto; o qual, se alguém nele se apoiar, entrar-lhe-á pela mão e a traspassará; assim é Faraó, rei do Egipto para com todos os que nele confiam. 22 Se, porém, me disserdes: No Senhor nosso Deus confiamos; porventura não é esse aquele cujos altos e altares Ezequias tirou dizendo a Judá e a Jerusalém: Perante, este altar adorareis em Jerusalém? 23 Ora pois faz uma aposta com o meu senhor, o rei da Assíria: dar-te-ei dois mil cavalos, se tu puderes dar cavaleiros para eles. 24 Como, então, poderias repelir um só príncipe dos menores servos de meu senhor, quando estás confiando no Egipto para obteres carros e cavaleiros? 25 Porventura teria eu subido sem o Senhor contra este lugar para o destruir? Foi o Senhor que me disse: sobe contra esta terra e a destrói. 26 Então disseram Eliaquim, filho de Hilquias, e Sebna, e Joá, a Rabsaqué: Rogamos-te que fales aos teus servos em aramaico, porque bem o entendemos; e não nos fales na língua judaica, aos ouvidos do povo que está em cima do muro. 27 Rabsaqué, porém, lhes disse: Porventura mandou-me meu senhor para falar estas palavras a teu senhor e a ti, e não aos homens que estão sentados em cima do muro que juntamente convosco hão de comer o seu excremento e beber a sua urina? 28 Então pondo-se em pé, Rabsaqué clamou em alta voz, na língua judaica, dizendo: Ouvi a palavra do grande rei, do rei da Assíria. 29 Assim diz o rei: Não vos engane Ezequias; porque não vos poderá livrar da minha mão; 30 nem tampouco vos faça Ezequias confiar no Senhor, dizendo: Certamente nos livrará o Senhor, e esta cidade não será entregue na mão do rei da Assíria. 31 Não deis ouvidos a Ezequias; pois assim diz o rei da Assíria: Fazei paz comigo, e saí a mim; e coma cada um da sua vide e da sua figueira, e beba cada um a água da sua cisterna; 32 até que eu venha, e vos leve para uma terra semelhante à vossa, terra de trigo e de mosto, terra de pão e de vinhas, terra de azeite de oliveiras e de mel; para que vivais e não morrais. Não deis ouvidos a Ezequias, quando vos envenena, dizendo: O Senhor nos livrará. 33 Porventura os deuses das nações puderam livrar, cada um a sua terra, das mãos do rei da Assíria? 34 Que é feito dos deuses de Hamat e de Arpad? Que é feito dos deuses de Sefarvaim, de Hena e de Iva? porventura livraram Samaria da minha mão? 35 Dentre todos os deuses das terras, quais são os que livraram a sua terra da minha mão, para que o Senhor livre Jerusalém da minha mão? 36 O povo, porém, ficou calado, e não lhe respondeu uma só palavra, porque o rei ordenara, dizendo: Não lhe respondais. 37 Então Eliaquim, filho de Hilquias, o mordomo, e Sebna, o escrivão, e Joá, filho de Asaf, o cronista, vieram a Ezequias com as vestes rasgadas, e lhe fizeram saber as palavras de Rabsaqué.
Norwegian(i) 1 I Israels konge Hoseas, Elas sønns tredje år blev Esekias, sønn av Judas konge Akas, konge. 2 Han var fem og tyve år gammel da han blev konge, og han regjerte ni og tyve år i Jerusalem; hans mor hette Abi og var datter av Sakarja. 3 Han gjorde hvad rett var i Herrens øine, aldeles som hans far David hadde gjort. 4 Han nedla offerhaugene og sønderslo billedstøttene og hugg Astarte-billedet i stykker og knuste den kobberslange Moses hadde gjort; for like til den tid hadde Israels barn brent røkelse for den; de kalte den Nehustan. 5 Til Herren, Israels Gud, satte han sin lit, og efter ham har det ikke vært hans like blandt alle Judas konger, heller ikke blandt dem som hadde vært før ham. 6 Han holdt fast ved Herren, han vek ikke fra ham, og han holdt hans bud, dem som Herren hadde gitt Moses. 7 Og Herren var med ham; i alt han tok sig fore, bar han sig viselig at. Han falt fra kongen i Assyria og vilde ikke tjene ham lenger. 8 Han slo filistrene og tok deres land like til Gasa og de omliggende bygder like fra vakttårnene til de faste byer. 9 I kong Esekias' fjerde år, som var Israels konge Hoseas, Elas sønns syvende år, drog Salmanassar, kongen i Assyria, op imot Samaria og kringsatte det. 10 Da tre år var gått, inntok de det; det var i Esekias' sjette år, som var Israels konge Hoseas niende år, Samaria blev inntatt. 11 Og kongen i Assyria bortførte Israel til Assyria og flyttet dem til Halah og til Habor, en elv i Gosan, og til Medias byer, 12 fordi de ikke hadde hørt på Herrens, sin Guds røst, men overtrådt hans pakt - alt det Moses, Herrens tjener, hadde befalt; de hverken hørte eller gjorde efter det. 13 I kong Esekias' fjortende år drog kongen i Assyria Sankerib op imot alle Judas faste byer og inntok dem. 14 Da sendte Judas konge Esekias bud til den assyriske konge i Lakis og lot si: Jeg har syndet; vend tilbake fra mig! Hvad du legger på mig, vil jeg bære. Da påla kongen i Assyria Judas konge Esekias å betale tre hundre talenter sølv og tretti talenter gull. 15 Og Esekias gav alt det sølv som fantes i Herrens hus og i skattkammerne i kongens hus. 16 Ved den leilighet lot Esekias gullet bryte av dørene på Herrens tempel og av dørstolpene som Esekias, Judas konge, hadde klædd med gull, og gav det til kongen i Assyria. 17 Men kongen i Assyria sendte Tartan og Rabsaris og Rabsake med en stor hær fra Lakis til kong Esekias i Jerusalem; og de drog op og kom til Jerusalem, og da de var kommet dit, stanset de ved vannledningen fra den øvre dam, ved alfarveien til Vaskervollen*. / {* JES 7, 3.} 18 Og de ropte på kongen; da gikk slottshøvdingen Eljakim, Hilkias' sønn, ut til dem sammen med statsskriveren Sebna og historieskriveren Joah, Asafs sønn. 19 Og Rabsake sa til dem: Si til Esekias: Så sier den store konge, kongen i Assyria: Hvad er det for en trygghet som er kommet over dig? 20 Du sier - men det er bare tomme ord - : Her er innsikt og styrke nok til krig. Til hvem setter du da din lit, siden du har gjort oprør mot mig? 21 Nuvel, du setter din lit til Egypten, denne knekkede rørstav, som når en støtter sig på den, går inn i hans hånd og gjennemborer den; således er kongen i Egypten Farao for alle dem som setter sin lit til ham. 22 Men sier I til mig: Vi setter vår lit til Herren vår Gud - er det da ikke hans offerhauger og altere Esekias har tatt bort, da han sa til Juda og Jerusalem: For dette alter skal I tilbede, her i Jerusalem? 23 Men gjør nu et veddemål med min herre, kongen i Assyria: Jeg vil gi dig to tusen hester om du kan få dig folk til å ride på dem. 24 Hvorledes skulde du da kunne drive tilbake en eneste stattholder, en av min herres ringeste tjenere? Derfor setter du din lit til Egypten og håper å få vogner og hestfolk derfra. 25 Mener du da at jeg har draget op mot dette sted for å ødelegge det, uten at Herren har villet det? Nei, Herren har selv sagt til mig: Dra op mot dette land og ødelegg det! 26 Da sa Eljakim, Hilkias' sønn, og Sebna og Joah til Rabsake: Tal til dine tjenere på syrisk, for vi forstår det sprog, og tal ikke til oss på jødisk, så folket som står på muren, hører det! 27 Men Rabsake svarte: Er det til din herre og til dig min herre har sendt mig for å tale disse ord? Er det ikke til de menn som sitter på muren og må ete sitt eget skarn og drikke sitt eget vann likesom I selv? 28 Og Rabsake trådte frem og ropte med høi røst på jødisk og talte således: Hør den store konges, den assyriske konges ord! 29 Så sier kongen: La ikke Esekias få narret eder! For han makter ikke å redde eder av hans hånd. 30 Og la ikke Esekias få eder til å sette eders lit til Herren, idet han sier: Herren vil redde oss, og denne by skal ikke gis i kongen av Assyrias hånd. 31 Hør ikke på Esekias! For så sier kongen i Assyria: Gjør fred med mig og kom ut til mig, så skal I få ete hver av sitt vintre og av sitt fikentre og drikke hver av vannet i sin brønn, 32 til jeg kommer og henter eder til et land som ligner eders land, et land med korn og most, et land med brød og vingårder, et land med oljetrær og honning, så I kan leve og ikke skal dø! Hør ikke på Esekias når han vil forføre eder og si: Herren vil redde oss! 33 Har vel nogen av folkenes guder reddet sitt land av kongen i Assyrias hånd? 34 Hvor er Hamats og Arpads guder? Hvor er Sefarva'ims, Henas og Ivvas guder? Har vel Samarias guder reddet det av min hånd? 35 Hvem er det blandt alle landenes guder som har reddet sitt land av min hånd, så Herren skulde redde Jerusalem av min hånd? 36 Men folket tidde og svarte ham ikke et ord; for kongens bud lød så: I skal ikke svare ham. 37 Så kom slottshøvdingen Eljakim, Hilkias' sønn, og statsskriveren Sebna og historieskriveren Joah, Asafs sønn, til Esekias med sønderrevne klær og meldte ham hvad Rabsake hadde sagt.
Romanian(i) 1 În al treilea an al lui Osea, fiul lui Ela, împăratul lui Israel, a început să domnească Ezechia, fiul lui Ahaz, împăratul lui Iuda. 2 Avea douăzeci şi cinci de ani cînd a ajuns împărat, şi a domnit douăzeci şi nouă de ani la Ierusalim. Mamă-sa se chema Abi, fata lui Zaharia. 3 El a făcut ce este plăcut înaintea Domnului, întocmai cum făcuse tatăl său David. 4 A îndepărtat înălţimile, a sfărîmat stîlpii idoleşti, a tăiat Astarteele, şi a sfărîmat în bucăţi şarpele de aramă, pe care -l făcuse Moise, căci copiii lui Israel arseseră pînă atunci tămîie înaintea lui: îl numeau Nehuştan. 5 El şi -a pus încrederea în Domnul, Dumnezeul lui Israel; şi dintre toţi împăraţii lui Iuda, cari au venit după el sau cari au fost înainte de el, n'a fost niciunul ca el. 6 El s'a alipit de Domnul, nu s'a abătut dela El, şi a păzit poruncile pe cari le dăduse lui Moise Domnul. 7 Şi Domnul a fost cu Ezechia, care a izbutit în tot ce a făcut. El s'a răsculat împotriva împăratului Asiriei, şi nu i -a mai fost supus. 8 A bătut pe Filisteni pînă la Gaza, şi le -a pustiit ţinutul, dela toate turnurile de pază pînă la cetăţile întărite. 9 În al patrulea an al împăratului Ezechia, care era al şaptelea an al lui Osea, fiul lui Ela, împăratul lui Israel, Salmanasar, împăratul Asiriei, s'a suit împotriva Samariei, şi a împresurat -o. 10 După trei ani, a luat -o, în al şaselea an al lui Ezechia, care era al nouălea an al lui Osea, împăratul lui Israel: atunci a fost luată Samaria. 11 Împăratul Asiriei a dus pe Israel rob în Asiria, şi i -a aşezat la Halah şi Habor, lîngă rîul Gozan, şi în cetăţile Mezilor, 12 pentrucă n'ascultaseră de glasul Domnului, Dumnezeului lor, şi călcaseră legămîntul Lui; pentrucă nici n'ascultaseră, nici nu împliniseră tot ce poruncise Moise, robul Domnului. 13 În al patrusprezecelea an al împăratului Ezechia, Sanherib, împăratul Asiriei, s'a suit împotriva tuturor cetăţilor întărite din Iuda, şi a pus stăpînire pe ele. 14 Ezechia, împăratul lui Iuda, a trimes să spună împăratului Asiriei la Lachis:,,Am greşit! Depărtează-te de mine. Ce vei pune asupra mea, voi purta.`` Şi împăratul Asiriei a cerut lui Ezechia, împăratul lui Iuda, trei sute de talanţi de argint şi treizeci de talanţi de aur. 15 Ezechia a dat tot argintul care se afla în Casa Domnului şi în vistieriile casei împăratului. 16 Atunci a luat Ezechia, împăratul lui Iuda, şi a dat împăratului Asiriei, aurul cu care acoperise uşile şi uşiorii Templului Domnului. 17 Împăratul Asiriei a trimes din Lachis la Ierusalim, la împăratul Ezechia, pe Tartan, Rab-Saris, şi pe Rabşache cu o oştire puternică. S'au suit şi au ajuns la Ierusalim. Cînd s'au suit şi au ajuns, s'au oprit la canalul de apă al iazului de sus, pe drumul care duce în ogorul nălbitorului. 18 Au chemat pe împărat; şi Eliachim, fiul lui Hilchia, mai marele peste casa împăratului, s'a dus la ei, cu Şebna, logofătul, şi cu Ioah, fiul lui Asaf, arhivarul. 19 Rabşache le -a zis:,,Spuneţi lui Ezechia:,Aşa vorbeşte marele împărat, împăratul Asiriei:,Ce este încrederea aceasta pe care te bizuieşti?`` 20 Tu ai zis:,Pentru război trebuie chibzuinţă şi putere.` Dar acestea sînt doar vorbe în vînt. În cine dar ţi-ai pus încrederea de te-ai răsculat împotriva mea? 21 Iată, ai pus -o în Egipt, ai luat în ajutor trestia aceea frîntă, care înţeapă şi străpunge mîna oricui se sprijineşte pe ea: aşa este Faraon, împăratul Egiptului, pentru toţi ceice se încred în el. 22 Poate că îmi veţi spune:,În Domnul, Dumnezeul nostru, ne încredem.` Dar nu este El acela ale cărui înălţimi şi altare le -a îndepărtat Ezechia, zicînd lui Iuda şi Ierusalimului:,Să vă închinaţi înaintea altarului acestuia la Ierusalim?` 23 Acum fă o învoială cu stăpînul meu, împăratul Asiriei: îţi voi da două mii de cai, să vedem dacă poţi din partea ta să dai atîţia călăreţi ca să încalece pe ei. 24 Şi cum ai putea îndepărta o căpetenie din cei mai mici slujitori ai stăpînului meu? Îţi pui încrederea în Egipt pentru cară şi călăreţi. 25 De altfel, oare fără voia Domnului m'am suit eu împotriva acestui loc, ca să -l nimicesc? Domnul mi -a zis:,,Suie-te împotriva ţării acesteia, şi nimiceşte -o.`` 26 Eliachim, fiul, lui Hilchia, Şebna şi Ioah, au zis lui Rabşache:,,Vorbeşte robilor tăi în limba aramaică, fiindcă o înţelegem; nu ne vorbi în limba iudaică, în auzul poporului de pe zid.`` 27 Rabşache le -a răspuns:,,Oare stăpînului tău şi ţie m'a trimes stăpînul meu să spun aceste vorbe? Oare nu acestor oameni cari stau pe zid să-şi mănînce balega şi să-şi bea udul cu voi?`` 28 Atunci Rabşache, înaintînd, a strigat cu glas tare în limba iudaică, şi a zis:,,Ascultaţi cuvîntul marelui împărat, împăratul Asiriei! 29 Aşa vorbeşte împăratul:,Să nu vă înşele Ezechia, căci nu va putea să vă izbăvească din mîna mea. 30 Să nu vă facă Ezechia să vă încredeţi în Domnul, zicînd:,Domnul ne va izbăvi, şi cetatea aceasta nu va fi dată în mînile împăratului Asiriei.` 31 N'ascultaţi de Ezechia; căci aşa vorbeşte împăratul Asiriei:,Faceţi pace cu mine, supuneţi-vă mie, şi fiecare din voi va mînca din via lui şi din smochinul lui, fiecare va bea apă din fîntîna lui, 32 pînă voi veni, şi vă voi duce într'o ţară ca a voastră, într'o ţară cu grîu şi cu vin, o ţară cu pîne şi vii, o ţară cu măslini de untdelemn şi miere, şi veţi trăi şi nu veţi muri. N'ascultaţi dar de Ezechia, care vă amăgeşte zicînd:,Domnul ne va izbăvi.` 33 Oare dumnezeii neamurilor au izbăvit ei fiecare ţara lui din mîna împăratului Asiriei? 34 Unde sînt dumnezeii Hamatului şi Arpadului? Unde sînt dumnezeii Sefarvaimului, Henei şi Ivei? Au izbăvit ei Samaria din mîna mea? 35 Cari dintre toţi dumnezeii acestor ţări şi-au izbăvit ţara din mîna mea, pentruca şi Domnul să izbăvească Ierusalimul din mîna mea?`` 36 Poporul a tăcut, şi nu i -a răspuns o vorbă; căci împăratul dăduse porunca aceasta:,,Să nu -i răspundeţi.`` 37 Şi Eliachim, fiul lui Hilchia, căpetenia casei împăratului, Şebna, logofătul, şi Ioah, fiul lui Asaf, scriitorul, au venit la Ezechia, cu hainele sfîşiate, şi i-au spus cuvintele lui Rabşache.
Ukrainian(i) 1 І сталося третього року Осії, сина Елиного, Ізраїлевого царя, зацарював Єзекія, син Ахазів, цар Юдин. 2 Він був віку двадцяти й п'яти літ, коли зацарював, і царював в Єрусалимі двадцять і дев'ять літ. А ім'я його матері Аві, дочка Захарія. 3 І робив він угодне в Господніх очах, усе так, як робив був його батько Давид. 4 Він понищив пагірки, і поламав стовпи для богів, і стяв Астарту, і розбив мідяного змія, якого зробив був Мойсей, бо аж до цих днів Ізраїлеві сини все кадили йому й кликали його: Нехуштан. 5 Він надіявся на Господа, Бога Ізраїля, і такого, як він, не було між усіма царями Юдиними, ані між тими, що були перед ним. 6 І міцно тримався він Господа, не відступався від Нього, і додержував заповіді Його, що наказав був Господь Мойсеєві. 7 І був Господь із ним, у всьому, куди він ходив, він мав поводження. І збунтувався він на асирійського царя, і не служив йому. 8 Він побив филистимлян аж до Аззи та границі її від вартової башти аж до твердинного міста. 9 І сталося четвертого року царя Єзекії, це сьомий рік Осії, Елиного сина, Ізраїлевого царя, пішов Салманасар, цар асирійський, на Самарію, та й обліг її. 10 І здобув він її по трьох роках: шостого року Єзекії, це дев'ятий рік Осії, Ізраїлевого царя, була здобута Самарія. 11 І вигнав асирійський цар Ізраїля до Асирії, і попровадив їх у Халах, і в Хавор, над річку Ґазан, та до мідійських міст. 12 Це за те, що не слухалися вони голосу Господа, Бога свого, і переступали заповіта Його; усього, що наказав був Мойсей, раб Господній, вони ані не слухали, ані не робили. 13 А чотирнадцятого року царя Єзекії прийшов Санхерів, цар асирійський, на всі укріплені Юдині міста, та й захопив їх. 14 І послав Єзекія, цар Юдин, до царя асирійського, до Лахішу, говорячи: Згрішив я! Відійди від мене, а що накладеш на мене, понесу. І наклав асирійський цар на Єзекію, Юдиного царя, три сотні талантів срібла та тридцять талантів золота. 15 І віддав Єзекія все срібло, знайдене в Господньому домі та в царевих скарбницях. 16 Того часу Єзекія відрубав золото з дверей Господнього дому та зо стовпів, що покрив був Єзекія, Юдин цар, золотом, і дав його асирійському цареві. 17 А асирійський цар послав із Лахішу до царя Єзекії головного командувача, і великого євнуха та великого чашника з великим військом до Єрусалиму. І пішли вони, і прийшли та й стали над водотягом горішнього ставу, що на битій дорозі до поля Валюшників. 18 І кликнули вони до царя, і до них вийшов Еліяким, син Хілкійї, начальник палати, і писар Шевна, та Йоах, син Асафів, канцлер. 19 І сказав до них великий чашник: Скажіть Єзекії: Отак сказав великий цар, цар асирійський: Що це за надія, на яку ти надієшся? 20 Чи думаєш ти, що слово уст, то вже рада та сила до війни? На кого тепер надієшся, що збунтувався проти мене? 21 Тепер оце ти надієшся собі опертися на оту поламану очеретину, на Єгипет, що коли хто опирається на неї, то вона входить у долоню йому й продірявлює її. Отакий фараон, цар єгипетський, для всіх, хто надіється на нього. 22 А коли ви скажете мені: Ми надіємось на Господа, Бога нашого, то чи ж Він не Той, що Єзекія понищив пагірки Його та жертівники Його, і сказав Юді та Єрусалимові: перед оцим тільки жертівником будете вклонятися в Єрусалимі? 23 А тепер піди в заклад із моїм паном, асирійським царем, і я дам тобі дві тисячі коней, якщо ти зможеш собі дати на них верхівців. 24 І як же ти проженеш хоч одного намісника з найменших слуг мого пана? А ти собі надієшся на Єгипет ради колесниць та верхівців! 25 Тепер же, чи без Господа прийшов я на це місце, щоб знищити його? Господь сказав був мені: Піди на той край та знищ його! 26 І сказав Еліяким, син Хілкійї, і Шевна та Йоах до великого чашника: Говори до своїх рабів по-арамейському, бо ми розуміємо, і не говори з нами по-юдейському в слух тих людей, що на мурі. 27 І сказав до них великий чашник: Чи пан мій послав мене говорити ці слова до твого пана та до тебе? Хіба не до цих людей, що сидять на мурі, щоб із вами їсти свій кал та пити свою сечу? 28 І став великий чашник, і кликнув гучним голосом по-юдейському, і говорив і сказав: Послухайте слово великого царя, царя асирійського: 29 Так сказав цар: Нехай не дурить вас Єзекія, бо він не зможе врятувати вас від руки його! 30 І нехай не запевняє вас Єзекія Господом, говорячи: Рятуючи, врятує вас Господь, і не буде дано цього міста в руку царя асирійського. 31 Не слухайте Єзекії, бо так сказав цар асирійський: Примиріться зо мною, та й вийдіть до мене, та й їжте кожен свій виноград та кожен фіґу свою, і пийте кожен воду зо своєї копанки, 32 аж поки я не прийду й не візьму вас до краю такого ж, як ваш Край, до краю збіжжя та виноградного соку, до краю хліба та виноградників, до краю оливки, оливного соку та меду, щоб ви жили й не вмирали! І не слухайте Єзекії, коли він намовляє вас, говорячи: Господь порятує нас! 33 Чи справді врятували боги тих народів, кожен свій край від руки асирійського царя? 34 Де боги Гамату та Арпаду? Де боги Сефарваїму, Гени та Івви? Чи врятували вони Самарію від моєї руки? 35 Котрий з-поміж усіх богів цих країв урятував свій край від моєї руки, то невже ж Господь урятує Єрусалим від моєї руки? 36 І мовчав той народ, і не відповів йому ані слова, бо це був наказ царя, що сказав: Не відповідайте йому! 37 І прийшов Еліяким, син Хілкійї, начальник палати, і писар Шевна, і Йоах, Асафів син, канцлер, із роздертими шатами, до Єзекії, і донесли йому слова великого чашника.
