Now it came to pass in the fourteenthH702+H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 HezekiahH2396, that SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 came upH5927 against all the defencedH1219 citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and tookH8610 them.
And the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 sentH7971 RabshakehH7262 from LachishH3923 to JerusalemH3389 unto kingH4428 HezekiahH2396 with a greatH3515 armyH2426. And he stoodH5975 by the conduitH8585 of the upperH5945 poolH1295 in the highwayH4546 of the fuller'sH3526 fieldH7704.
Then came forthH3318 unto him EliakimH471, Hilkiah'sH2518 sonH1121, which was over the houseH1004, and ShebnaH7644 the scribeH5608, and JoahH3098, Asaph'sH623 sonH1121, the recorderH2142. {scribe: or, secretary}
And RabshakehH7262 saidH559 unto them, SayH559 ye now to HezekiahH2396, Thus saithH559 the greatH1419 kingH4428, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, What confidenceH986 is this wherein thou trustestH982?
I sayH559, sayest thou, (but they are but vainH8193 wordsH1697) I have counselH6098 and strengthH1369 for warH4421: now on whom dost thou trustH982, that thou rebellestH4775 against me? {vain…: Heb. a word of lips} {I have…: or, but counsel and strength are for the war}
Lo, thou trustestH982 in the staffH4938 of this brokenH7533 reedH7070, on EgyptH4714; whereon if a manH376 leanH5564, it will goH935 into his handH3709, and pierceH5344 it: so is PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 to all that trustH982 in him.
But if thou sayH559 to me, We trustH982 in the LORDH3068 our GodH430: is it not he, whose high placesH1116 and whose altarsH4196 HezekiahH2396 hath taken awayH5493, and saidH559 to JudahH3063 and to JerusalemH3389, Ye shall worshipH7812 beforeH6440 this altarH4196?
Now therefore give pledgesH6148, I pray thee, to my masterH113 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and I will giveH5414 thee two thousandH505 horsesH5483, if thou be ableH3201 on thy part to setH5414 ridersH7392 upon them. {pledges: or, hostages}
How then wilt thou turn awayH7725 the faceH6440 of oneH259 captainH6346 of the leastH6996 of my master'sH113 servantsH5650, and put thy trustH982 on EgyptH4714 for chariotsH7393 and for horsemenH6571?
And am I now come upH5927 withoutH1107 the LORDH3068 against this landH776 to destroyH7843 it? the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Go upH5927 against this landH776, and destroyH7843 it.
Then saidH559 EliakimH471 and ShebnaH7644 and JoahH3098 unto RabshakehH7262, SpeakH1696, I pray thee, unto thy servantsH5650 in the Syrian languageH762; for we understandH8085 it: and speakH1696 not to us in the Jews' languageH3066, in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971 that are on the wallH2346.
But RabshakehH7262 saidH559, Hath my masterH113 sentH7971 me to thy masterH113 and to thee to speakH1696 these wordsH1697? hath he not sent me to the menH582 that sitH3427 upon the wallH2346, that they may eatH398 their own dungH2716+H6675, and drinkH8354 their own pissH4325+H7272+H7890 with you?
Then RabshakehH7262 stoodH5975, and criedH7121 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963 in the Jews' languageH3066, and saidH559, HearH8085 ye the wordsH1697 of the greatH1419 kingH4428, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.
Thus saithH559 the kingH4428, Let not HezekiahH2396 deceiveH5377 you: for he shall not be ableH3201 to deliverH5337 you.
Neither let HezekiahH2396 make you trustH982 in the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 will surelyH5337 deliverH5337 us: this cityH5892 shall not be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.
HearkenH8085 not to HezekiahH2396: for thus saithH559 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, MakeH6213 an agreement with me by a presentH1293, and come outH3318 to me: and eatH398 ye every oneH376 of his vineH1612, and every oneH376 of his fig treeH8384, and drinkH8354 ye every oneH376 the watersH4325 of his own cisternH953; {Make…: or, Seek my favour by a present: Heb. Make with me a blessing}
Until I comeH935 and take you awayH3947 to a landH776 like your own landH776, a landH776 of cornH1715 and wineH8492, a landH776 of breadH3899 and vineyardsH3754.
Beware lest HezekiahH2396 persuadeH5496 you, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 will deliverH5337 us. Hath anyH376 of the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 deliveredH5337 his landH776 out of the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804?
Where are the godsH430 of HamathH2574 and ArphadH774? where are the godsH430 of SepharvaimH5617? and have they deliveredH5337 SamariaH8111 out of my handH3027?
Who are they among all the godsH430 of these landsH776, that have deliveredH5337 their landH776 out of my handH3027, that the LORDH3068 should deliverH5337 JerusalemH3389 out of my handH3027?
But they held their peaceH2790, and answeredH6030 him not a wordH1697: for the king'sH4428 commandmentH4687 was, sayingH559, AnswerH6030 him not.
Then cameH935 EliakimH471, the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518, that was over the householdH1004, and ShebnaH7644 the scribeH5608, and JoahH3098, the sonH1121 of AsaphH623, the recorderH2142, to HezekiahH2396 with their clothesH899 rentH7167, and toldH5046 him the wordsH1697 of RabshakehH7262.

Where is the kingH4428 of HamathH2574, and the kingH4428 of ArphadH774, and the kingH4428 of the cityH5892 of SepharvaimH5617, HenaH2012, and IvahH5755?

Whom hast thou reproachedH2778 and blasphemedH1442? and against whom hast thou exaltedH7311 thy voiceH6963, and lifted upH5375 thine eyesH5869 on highH4791? even against the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478.
Doth not HezekiahH3169 persuadeH5496 you to giveH5414 over yourselves to dieH4191 by famineH7458 and by thirstH6772, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall deliverH5337 us out of the handH3709 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804?
KnowH3045 ye not what I and my fathersH1 have doneH6213 unto all the peopleH5971 of other landsH776? were the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 of those landsH776 any waysH3201 ableH3201 to deliverH5337 their landsH776 out of mine handH3027?
Who was there among all the godsH430 of those nationsH1471 that my fathersH1 utterly destroyedH2763, that couldH3201 deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027, that your GodH430 should be ableH3201 to deliverH5337 you out of mine handH3027?
Now therefore let notH3808 HezekiahH2396 deceiveH5377 you, nor persuadeH5496 you on this manner, neither yet believeH539 him: for no godH433 of any nationH1471 or kingdomH4467 was ableH3201 to deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027, and out of the handH3027 of my fathersH1: how much less shall your GodH430 deliverH5337 you out of mine handH3027?
And his servantsH5650 spakeH1696 yet more against the LORDH3068 GodH430, and against his servantH5650 HezekiahH3169.
He wroteH3789 also lettersH5612 to railH2778 on the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and to speakH559 against him, sayingH559, As the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 of other landsH776 have not deliveredH5337 their peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027, so shall not the GodH430 of HezekiahH3169 deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027.
Then they criedH7121 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963 in the Jews' speechH3066 unto the peopleH5971 of JerusalemH3389 that were on the wallH2346, to affrightH3372 them, and to troubleH926 them; that they might takeH3920 the cityH5892.
And they spakeH1696 againstH5921 the GodH430 of JerusalemH3389, as against the godsH430 of the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, which were the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of manH120.
NowH3705 ifH2006 ye beH383 readyH6263 that at what timeH5732 ye hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030+H7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musickH2170, ye fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the imageH6755 which I have madeH5648; well: but ifH2006 ye worshipH5457 notH3809, ye shall be castH7412 the same hourH8160 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861; and whoH4479 is that GodH426 that shall deliverH7804 you out ofH4481 my handsH3028?
ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, answeredH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430, O NebuchadnezzarH5020, weH586 are notH3809 carefulH2818 to answerH8421 thee inH5922 thisH1836 matterH6600.
IfH2006 it be so, our GodH426 whom weH586 serveH6399 isH383 ableH3202 to deliverH7804 us fromH4481 the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, andH4481 he will deliverH7804 us out ofH4481 thine handH3028, O kingH4430.
And when he cameH7127 to the denH1358, he criedH2200 with a lamentableH6088 voiceH7032 unto DanielH1841: and the kingH4430 spakeH6032 and saidH560 to DanielH1841, O DanielH1841, servantH5649 of the livingH2417 GodH426, is thy GodH426, whom thou servestH6399 continuallyH8411, ableH3202 to deliverH7804 thee fromH4481 the lionsH744?
And he shall speakH4449 great wordsH4406 againstH6655 the most HighH5943, and shall wear outH1080 the saintsH6922 of the most HighH5946, and thinkH5452 to changeH8133 timesH2166 and lawsH1882: and they shall be givenH3052 into his handH3028 untilH5705 a timeH5732 and timesH5732 and the dividingH6387 of timeH5732.
