Isaiah 37:21-36

ECB(i) 21 And Yesha Yah the son of Amos sends to Yechizqi Yah, saying, Thus says Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, That which you prayed to me against Sancherib sovereign of Ashshur, 22 this is the word Yah Veh words concerning him: The virgin, the daughter of Siyon, despises you, ridicules you; the daughter of Yeru Shalem shakes her head behind you. 23 Whom reproach you? And blaspheme? And against whom exalt you your voice? And lift your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Yisra El! 24 By the hand of your servants you reproach Adonay, and say, By the abundance of my chariots I ascend to the height of the mountains - to the flanks of Lebanon; and I cut down the height of the cedars and the choice fir trees: and I enter the height of his edge and the forest of his Karmel/orchard: 25 I dig and drink water; and with the sole of my steps I parch all the rivers of the rampart. 26 Heard you not in the distant past, that I worked it? Of ancient days, that I formed it? now I bring it to become, for you to waste fortified cities into desolate heaps. 27 And their settlers are short handed - dismayed and shamed - as the herbage of the field and as the green sprouts; as the grass on the roofs and as the field at the face of the stalks. 28 And I know your sitting and your coming and your going; and your quaking against me: 29 because of your quaking against me your uproar ascends into my ears: I set my hook in your nostrils and my bit in your lips; and I turn you back by the way you came. 30 And this is a sign to you, This year you eat the spontaneous growth; and the second year the spontaneous growth: and in the third year you seed and harvest and plant vineyards and eat the fruit. 31 And the escapees of the house of Yah Hudah who survive again take root downward and work fruit upward: 32 for survivors come from Yeru Shalem and the escapees from mount Siyon: the zeal of Yah Veh Sabaoth works this. 33 So Yah Veh says thus concerning the sovereign of Ashshur, He neither comes into this city, nor shoots an arrow there; neither anticipates with buckler, nor pours a bank against it. 34 By the way he came, by the same he returns, and comes not into this city - an oracle of Yah Veh. 35 For I garrison this city to save it for my own sake and for sake of my servant David. 36 And the angel of Yah Veh goes and smites a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of Ashshur: and they start early in the morning, and behold, they are all dead carcases.
