Now it came to pass in the fourteenth [0702] [6240] year [8141] of king [4428] Hezekiah, [2396] [that] Sennacherib [5576] king [4428] of Assyria [0804] came up [5927] against all the defenced [1219] cities [5892] of Judah, [3063] and took [8610] them.

2

And the king [4428] of Assyria [0804] sent [7971] Rabshakeh [7262] from Lachish [3923] to Jerusalem [3389] unto king [4428] Hezekiah [2396] with a great [3515] army. [2426] And he stood [5975] by the conduit [8585] of the upper [5945] pool [1295] in the highway [4546] of the fuller's [3526] field. [7704]

3

Then came forth [3318] unto him Eliakim, [0471] Hilkiah's [2518] son, [1121] which was over the house, [1004] and Shebna [7644] the scribe, [5608] and Joah, [3098] Asaph's [0623] son, [1121] the recorder. [2142]

4

And Rabshakeh [7262] said [0559] unto them, Say [0559] ye now to Hezekiah, [2396] Thus saith [0559] the great [1419] king, [4428] the king [4428] of Assyria, [0804] What confidence [0986] [is] this wherein thou trustest? [0982]

5

I say, [0559] [sayest thou], (but [they are but] vain [8193] words) [1697] [I have] counsel [6098] and strength [1369] for war: [4421] now on whom dost thou trust, [0982] that thou rebellest [4775] against me?

6

Lo, thou trustest [0982] in the staff [4938] of this broken [7533] reed, [7070] on Egypt; [4714] whereon if a man [0376] lean, [5564] it will go [0935] into his hand, [3709] and pierce [5344] it: so [is] Pharaoh [6547] king [4428] of Egypt [4714] to all that trust [0982] in him.

7

But if thou say [0559] to me, We trust [0982] in the LORD [3068] our God: [0430] [is it] not he, whose high places [1116] and whose altars [4196] Hezekiah [2396] hath taken away, [5493] and said [0559] to Judah [3063] and to Jerusalem, [3389] Ye shall worship [7812] before [6440] this altar? [4196]

8

Now therefore give pledges, [6148] I pray thee, to my master [0113] the king [4428] of Assyria, [0804] and I will give [5414] thee two thousand [0505] horses, [5483] if thou be able [3201] on thy part to set [5414] riders [7392] upon them.

9

How then wilt thou turn away [7725] the face [6440] of one [0259] captain [6346] of the least [6996] of my master's [0113] servants, [5650] and put thy trust [0982] on Egypt [4714] for chariots [7393] and for horsemen? [6571]

10

And am I now come up [5927] without [1107] the LORD [3068] against this land [0776] to destroy [7843] it? the LORD [3068] said [0559] unto me, Go up [5927] against this land, [0776] and destroy [7843] it.

11

Then said [0559] Eliakim [0471] and Shebna [7644] and Joah [3098] unto Rabshakeh, [7262] Speak, [1696] I pray thee, unto thy servants [5650] in the Syrian [0762] language; for we understand [8085] [it]: and speak [1696] not to us in the Jews' language, [3066] in the ears [0241] of the people [5971] that [are] on the wall. [2346]

12

But Rabshakeh [7262] said, [0559] Hath my master [0113] sent [7971] me to thy master [0113] and to thee to speak [1696] these words? [1697] [hath he] not [sent me] to the men [0582] that sit [3427] upon the wall, [2346] that they may eat [0398] their own dung, [2716] [6675] and drink [8354] their own piss [4325] [7272][7890] with you?

13

Then Rabshakeh [7262] stood, [5975] and cried [7121] with a loud [1419] voice [6963] in the Jews' language, [3066] and said, [0559] Hear [8085] ye the words [1697] of the great [1419] king, [4428] the king [4428] of Assyria. [0804]

14

Thus saith [0559] the king, [4428] Let not Hezekiah [2396] deceive [5377] you: for he shall not be able [3201] to deliver [5337] you.

15

Neither let Hezekiah [2396] make you trust [0982] in the LORD, [3068] saying, [0559] The LORD [3068] will surely [5337] deliver [5337] us: this city [5892] shall not be delivered [5414] into the hand [3027] of the king [4428] of Assyria. [0804]

16

Hearken [8085] not to Hezekiah: [2396] for thus saith [0559] the king [4428] of Assyria, [0804] Make [6213] [an agreement] with me [by] a present, [1293] and come out [3318] to me: and eat [0398] ye every one [0376] of his vine, [1612] and every one [0376] of his fig tree, [8384] and drink [8354] ye every one [0376] the waters [4325] of his own cistern; [0953]

17

Until I come [0935] and take [3947] you away to a land [0776] like your own land, [0776] a land [0776] of corn [1715] and wine, [8492] a land [0776] of bread [3899] and vineyards. [3754]

18

[Beware] lest Hezekiah [2396] persuade [5496] you, saying, [0559] The LORD [3068] will deliver [5337] us. Hath any [0376] of the gods [0430] of the nations [1471] delivered [5337] his land [0776] out of the hand [3027] of the king [4428] of Assyria? [0804]

19

Where [are] the gods [0430] of Hamath [2574] and Arphad? [0774] where [are] the gods [0430] of Sepharvaim? [5617] and have they delivered [5337] Samaria [8111] out of my hand? [3027]

20

Who [are they] among all the gods [0430] of these lands, [0776] that have delivered [5337] their land [0776] out of my hand, [3027] that the LORD [3068] should deliver [5337] Jerusalem [3389] out of my hand? [3027]

21

But they held their peace, [2790] and answered [6030] him not a word: [1697] for the king's [4428] commandment [4687] was, saying, [0559] Answer [6030] him not.

22

Then came [0935] Eliakim, [0471] the son [1121] of Hilkiah, [2518] that [was] over the household, [1004] and Shebna [7644] the scribe, [5608] and Joah, [3098] the son [1121] of Asaph, [0623] the recorder, [2142] to Hezekiah [2396] with [their] clothes [0899] rent, [7167] and told [5046] him the words [1697] of Rabshakeh.
