And it came to pass, when kingH4428 HezekiahH2396 heardH8085 it, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899, and coveredH3680 himself with sackclothH8242, and wentH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And he sentH7971 EliakimH471, who was over the householdH1004, and ShebnaH7644 the scribeH5608, and the eldersH2205 of the priestsH3548 coveredH3680 with sackclothH8242, unto IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 the sonH1121 of AmozH531.
And they saidH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 HezekiahH2396, This dayH3117 is a dayH3117 of troubleH6869, and of rebukeH8433, and of blasphemyH5007: for the childrenH1121 are comeH935 to the birthH4866, and there is not strengthH3581 to bring forthH3205. {blasphemy: or, provocation}
It may be the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of RabshakehH7262, whom the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 his masterH113 hath sentH7971 to reproachH2778 the livingH2416 GodH430, and will reproveH3198 the wordsH1697 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath heardH8085: wherefore lift upH5375 thy prayerH8605 for the remnantH7611 that is leftH4672. {left: Heb. found}
So the servantsH5650 of kingH4428 HezekiahH2396 cameH935 to IsaiahH3470.
And IsaiahH3470 saidH559 unto them, Thus shall ye sayH559 unto your masterH113, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Be not afraidH3372 ofH6440 the wordsH1697 that thou hast heardH8085, wherewith the servantsH5288 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 have blasphemedH1442 me.
Behold, I will sendH5414 a blastH7307 upon him, and he shall hearH8085 a rumourH8052, and returnH7725 to his own landH776; and I will cause him to fallH5307 by the swordH2719 in his own landH776. {send…: or, put a spirit into him}
So RabshakehH7262 returnedH7725, and foundH4672 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 warringH3898 against LibnahH3841: for he had heardH8085 that he was departedH5265 from LachishH3923.
And he heardH8085 sayH559 concerning TirhakahH8640 kingH4428 of EthiopiaH3568, He is come forthH3318 to make warH3898 with thee. And when he heardH8085 it, he sentH7971 messengersH4397 to HezekiahH2396, sayingH559,
Thus shall ye speakH559 to HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, Let not thy GodH430, in whom thou trustestH982, deceiveH5377 thee, sayingH559, JerusalemH3389 shall not be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.
Behold, thou hast heardH8085 what the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 have doneH6213 to all landsH776 by destroying them utterlyH2763; and shalt thou be deliveredH5337?
Have the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 deliveredH5337 them which my fathersH1 have destroyedH7843, as GozanH1470, and HaranH2771, and RezephH7530, and the childrenH1121 of EdenH5729 which were in TelassarH8515?
Where is the kingH4428 of HamathH2574, and the kingH4428 of ArphadH774, and the kingH4428 of the cityH5892 of SepharvaimH5617, HenaH2012, and IvahH5755?
And HezekiahH2396 receivedH3947 the letterH5612 from the handH3027 of the messengersH4397, and readH7121 it: and HezekiahH2396 went upH5927 unto the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and spreadH6566 it beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And HezekiahH2396 prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
O LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, GodH430 of IsraelH3478, that dwellestH3427 between the cherubimsH3742, thou art the GodH430, even thou alone, of all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776: thou hast madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776.
InclineH5186 thine earH241, O LORDH3068, and hearH8085; openH6491 thine eyesH5869, O LORDH3068, and seeH7200: and hearH8085 all the wordsH1697 of SennacheribH5576, which hath sentH7971 to reproachH2778 the livingH2416 GodH430.
Of a truthH551, LORDH3068, the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 have laid wasteH2717 all the nationsH776, and their countriesH776, {nations: Heb. lands}
And have castH5414 their godsH430 into the fireH784: for they were no godsH430, but the workH4639 of men'sH120 handsH3027, woodH6086 and stoneH68: therefore they have destroyedH6 them. {cast: Heb. given}
Now therefore, O LORDH3068 our GodH430, saveH3467 us from his handH3027, that all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 that thou art the LORDH3068, even thou only.
Then IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 sentH7971 unto HezekiahH2396, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Whereas thou hast prayedH6419 to me against SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804:
This is the wordH1697 which the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 concerning him; The virginH1330, the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726, hath despisedH959 thee, and laughed thee to scorn;H3932 the daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389 hath shakenH5128 her headH7218 at theeH310.
Whom hast thou reproachedH2778 and blasphemedH1442? and against whom hast thou exaltedH7311 thy voiceH6963, and lifted upH5375 thine eyesH5869 on highH4791? even against the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.
ByH3027 thy servantsH5650 hast thou reproachedH2778 the LordH136, and hast saidH559, By the multitudeH7230 of my chariotsH7393 am I come upH5927 to the heightH4791 of the mountainsH2022, to the sidesH3411 of LebanonH3844; and I will cut downH3772 the tallH6967 cedarsH730 thereof, and the choiceH4005 fir treesH1265 thereof: and I will enterH935 into the heightH4791 of his borderH7093, and the forestH3293 of his CarmelH3760. {By thy…: Heb. By the hand of thy servants} {the tall…: Heb. the tallness of the cedars thereof and the choice of the fir trees thereof} {the forest…: or, the forest and his fruitful field}
I have diggedH6979, and drunkH8354 waterH4325; and with the soleH3709 of my feetH6471 have I dried upH2717 all the riversH2975 of the besieged placesH4693. {besieged: or, fenced and closed}
Hast thou not heardH8085 long agoH7350, how I have doneH6213 it; and of ancientH6924 timesH3117, that I have formedH3335 it? now have I broughtH935 it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay wasteH7582 defencedH1219 citiesH5892 into ruinousH5327 heapsH1530. {Hast…: or, Hast thou not heard how I have made it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? should I now bring it to be laid waste, and defenced cities to be ruinous heaps?}
Therefore their inhabitantsH3427 were of smallH7116 powerH3027, they were dismayedH2865 and confoundedH954: they were as the grassH6212 of the fieldH7704, and as the greenH3419 herbH1877, as the grassH2682 on the housetopsH1406, and as corn blastedH7709 beforeH6440 it be grown upH7054. {of small…: Heb. short of hand}
But I knowH3045 thy abodeH3427, and thy going outH3318, and thy coming inH935, and thy rageH7264 against me. {abode: or, sitting}
Because thy rageH7264 against me, and thy tumultH7600, is come upH5927 into mine earsH241, therefore will I putH7760 my hookH2397 in thy noseH639, and my bridleH4964 in thy lipsH8193, and I will turn thee backH7725 by the wayH1870 by which thou camestH935.
And this shall be a signH226 unto thee, Ye shall eatH398 this yearH8141 such as growethH5599 of itself; and the secondH8145 yearH8141 that which springethH7823 of the same: and in the thirdH7992 yearH8141 sowH2232 ye, and reapH7114, and plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 thereof.
And the remnantH7604 that is escapedH6413 of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 shall againH3254 take rootH8328 downwardH4295, and bearH6213 fruitH6529 upwardH4605: {the remnant…: Heb. the escaping of the house of Judah that remaineth}
For out of JerusalemH3389 shall go forthH3318 a remnantH7611, and they that escapeH6413 out of mountH2022 ZionH6726: the zealH7068 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall doH6213 this. {they…: Heb. the escaping}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, He shall not comeH935 into this cityH5892, nor shootH3384 an arrowH2671 there, nor come beforeH6923 it with shieldsH4043, nor castH8210 a bankH5550 against it.
By the wayH1870 that he cameH935, by the same shall he returnH7725, and shall not comeH935 into this cityH5892, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For I will defendH1598 this cityH5892 to saveH3467 it for mine own sake, and for my servantH5650 David'sH1732 sake.
Then the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 went forthH3318, and smoteH5221 in the campH4264 of the AssyriansH804 a hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 and fiveH2568 thousandH505: and when they arose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, behold, they were all deadH4191 corpsesH6297.
So SennacheribH5576 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 departedH5265, and wentH3212 and returnedH7725, and dweltH3427 at NinevehH5210.
And it came to pass, as he was worshippingH7812 in the houseH1004 of NisrochH5268 his godH430, that AdrammelechH152 and SharezerH8272 his sonsH1121 smoteH5221 him with the swordH2719; and they escapedH4422 into the landH776 of ArmeniaH780: and EsarhaddonH634 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {Armenia: Heb. Ararat}

Therefore shall the LordH113, the LordH136+H3068 of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat onesH4924 leannessH7332; and under his gloryH3519 he shall kindleH3344 a burningH3350 like the burning of a fireH784.
And the lightH216 of IsraelH3478 shall be for a fireH784, and his Holy OneH6918 for a flameH3852: and it shall burnH1197 and devourH398 his thornsH7898 and his briersH8068 in oneH259 dayH3117;
And shall consumeH3615 the gloryH3519 of his forestH3293, and of his fruitful fieldH3759, both soulH5315 and bodyH1320: and they shall be as when a standardbearerH5263 faintethH4549. {both…: Heb. from the soul, and even to the flesh}

Behold, the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, shall lopH5586 the boughH6288 with terrorH4637: and the high onesH7311 of statureH6967 shall be hewn downH1438, and the haughtyH1364 shall be humbledH8213.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 an angelH4397, which cut offH3582 all the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, and the leadersH5057 and captainsH8269 in the campH4264 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804. So he returnedH7725 with shameH1322 of faceH6440 to his own landH776. And when he was comeH935 into the houseH1004 of his godH430, they that came forthH3329 of his own bowelsH4578 slewH5307 him there with the swordH2719. {slew…: Heb. made him fall}
And he shall cut downH5362 the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293 with ironH1270, and LebanonH3844 shall fallH5307 by a mighty oneH117. {by…: or, mightily}
The nationsH3816 shall rushH7582 like the rushingH7588 of manyH7227 watersH4325: but God shall rebukeH1605 them, and they shall fleeH5127 far offH4801, and shall be chasedH7291 as the chaffH4671 of the mountainsH2022 beforeH6440 the windH7307, and like a rolling thingH1534 beforeH6440 the whirlwindH5492. {a rolling…: or, thistledown}
And behold at eveningtideH6256+H6153 troubleH1091; and before the morningH1242 he is not. This is the portionH2506 of them that spoilH8154 us, and the lotH1486 of them that robH962 us.
Moreover the multitudeH1995 of thy strangersH2114 shall be like smallH1851 dustH80, and the multitudeH1995 of the terrible onesH6184 shall be as chaffH4671 that passeth awayH5674: yea, it shall be at an instantH6621 suddenlyH6597.
Thou shalt be visitedH6485 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 with thunderH7482, and with earthquakeH7494, and greatH1419 noiseH6963, with stormH5492 and tempestH5591, and the flameH3851 of devouringH398 fireH784.
And the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 that fightH6633 against ArielH740, even all that fightH6638 against her and her munitionH4685, and that distressH6693 her, shall be as a dreamH2472 of a nightH3915 visionH2377.
It shall even be as when an hungryH7457 man dreamethH2492, and, behold, he eatethH398; but he awakethH6974, and his soulH5315 is emptyH7386: or as whenH834 a thirsty manH6771 dreamethH2492, and, behold, he drinkethH8354; but he awakethH6974, and, behold, he is faintH5889, and his soulH5315 hath appetiteH8264: so shall the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 be, that fightH6633 against mountH2022 ZionH6726.
And his breathH7307, as an overflowingH7857 streamH5158, shall reach to the midstH2673 of the neckH6677, to siftH5130 the nationsH1471 with the sieveH5299 of vanityH7723: and there shall be a bridleH7448 in the jawsH3895 of the peopleH5971, causing them to errH8582.
Ye shall have a songH7892, as in the nightH3915 when a holyH6942 solemnityH2282 is keptH6942; and gladnessH8057 of heartH3824, as when one goethH1980 with a pipeH2485 to comeH935 into the mountainH2022 of the LORDH3068, to the mighty OneH6697 of IsraelH3478. {mighty…: Heb. Rock}
And the LORDH3068 shall cause his gloriousH1935 voiceH6963 to be heardH8085, and shall shewH7200 the lighting downH5183 of his armH2220, with the indignationH2197 of his angerH639, and with the flameH3851 of a devouringH398 fireH784, with scatteringH5311, and tempestH2230, and hailstonesH68+H1259. {his glorious…: Heb. the glory of his voice}

And in every placeH3605 where the groundedH4145 staffH4294 shall passH4569, which the LORDH3068 shall layH5117 upon him, it shall be with tabretsH8596 and harpsH3658: and in battlesH4421 of shakingH8573 will he fightH3898 with it. {in every…: Heb. every passing of the rod founded} {lay…: Heb. cause to rest upon him} {with it: or, against them}
For TophetH8613 is ordainedH6186 of oldH865; yea, for the kingH4428 it is preparedH3559; he hath made it deepH6009 and largeH7337: the pileH4071 thereof is fireH784 and muchH7235 woodH6086; the breathH5397 of the LORDH3068, like a streamH5158 of brimstoneH1614, doth kindleH1197 it. {of old: Heb. from yesterday}
Then shall the AssyrianH804 fallH5307 with the swordH2719, not of a mighty manH376; and the swordH2719, not of a mean manH120, shall devourH398 him: but he shall fleeH5127 fromH6440 the swordH2719, and his young menH970 shall be discomfitedH4522. {from: or, for fear of} {discomfited: or, tributary: Heb. for melting, or, tribute}
And he shall pass overH5674 to his strong holdH5553 for fearH4032, and his princesH8269 shall be afraidH2865 of the ensignH5251, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, whose fireH217 is in ZionH6726, and his furnaceH8574 in JerusalemH3389. {he…: Heb. his rock shall pass away for fear} {his strong hold: or, his strength}
Now will I riseH6965, saithH559 the LORDH3068; now will I be exaltedH7426; now will I lift upH5375 myself.

And the peopleH5971 shall be as the burningsH4955 of limeH7875: as thornsH6975 cut upH3683 shall they be burnedH3341 in the fireH784.
For the LordH136 had made the hostH4264 of the SyriansH758 to hearH8085 a noiseH6963 of chariotsH7393, and a noiseH6963 of horsesH5483, even the noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 hostH2428: and they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, Lo, the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 hath hiredH7936 against us the kingsH4428 of the HittitesH2850, and the kingsH4428 of the EgyptiansH4714, to comeH935 upon us.
By the blastH5397 of GodH433 they perishH6, and by the breathH7307 of his nostrilsH639 are they consumedH3615. {by the breath…: that is, by his anger}
