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}

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.
Thine enemiesH6887 roarH7580 in the midstH7130 of thy congregationsH4150; they set upH7760 their ensignsH226 for signsH226.
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.
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?
ForgetH7911 not the voiceH6963 of thine enemiesH6887: the tumultH7588 of those that rise upH6965 against thee increasethH5927 continuallyH8548. {increaseth: Heb. ascendeth}
Canst thou putH7760 an hookH100 into his noseH639? or boreH5344 his jawH3895 through with a thornH2336?
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.
For, lo, thine enemiesH341 make a tumultH1993: and they that hateH8130 thee have lifted upH5375 the headH7218.
Be ye not as the horseH5483, or as the muleH6505, which have no understandingH995: whose mouthH5716 must be heldH1102 in with bitH4964 and bridleH7448, lestH1077 they come nearH7126 unto thee.
But I knowH3045 thy abodeH3427, and thy going outH3318, and thy coming inH935, and thy rageH7264 against me. {abode: or, sitting}
WhenG1161 PilateG4091 sawG1492 thatG3754 he could prevailG5623 nothingG3762, butG235 that ratherG3123 a tumultG2351 was madeG1096, he tookG2983 waterG5204, and washedG633 his handsG5495 beforeG561 the multitudeG3793, sayingG3004, I amG1510 innocentG121 ofG575 the bloodG129 of thisG5127 just personG1342: seeG3700 yeG5210 to it.
But I will putH5414 hooksH2397+H2397 in thy jawsH3895, and I will cause the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 to stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193, and I will bring thee upH5927 out of the midstH8432 of thy riversH2975, and all the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 shall stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193.
Because thy rageH7264 against me and thy tumultH7600 is come upH5927 into mine earsH241, therefore I will 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.
AndG1161 they gaveG191 himG846 audienceG191 untoG891 thisG5127 wordG3056, andG2532 then lifted upG1869 theirG846 voicesG5456, and saidG3004, Away withG142 suchG5108 a fellow fromG575 the earthG1093: forG1063 it isG2520 notG3756 fitG2520 that heG846 should liveG2198.
And I will turn thee backH7725, and putH5414 hooksH2397 into thy jawsH3895, and I will bring thee forthH3318, and all thine armyH2428, horsesH5483 and horsemenH6571, all of them clothedH3847 with all sortsH4358 of armour, even a greatH7227 companyH6951 with bucklersH6793 and shieldsH4043, all of them handlingH8610 swordsH2719:
For he stretcheth outH5186 his handH3027 against GodH410, and strengthenethH1396 himself against the AlmightyH7706.
The LordH136 GODH3069 hath swornH7650 by his holinessH6944, that, lo, the daysH3117 shall comeH935 upon you, that he will take you awayH5375 with hooksH6793, and your posterityH319 with fishhooksH1729+H5518.
He runnethH7323 upon him, even on his neckH6677, upon the thickH5672 bossesH1354 of his bucklersH4043:
Why do the heathenH1471 rageH7283, and the peopleH3816 imagineH1897 a vain thingH7385? {rage: or, tumultuously assemble} {imagine: Heb. meditate}
The kingsH4428 of the earthH776 setH3320 themselves, and the rulersH7336 take counselH3245 togetherH3162, against the LORDH3068, and against his anointedH4899, saying,
Let us breakH5423 their bandsH4147 asunderH5423, and cast awayH7993 their cordsH5688 from us.
The heathenH1471 ragedH1993, the kingdomsH4467 were movedH4131: he utteredH5414 his voiceH6963, the earthH776 meltedH4127.
The floodsH5104 have lifted upH5375, O LORDH3068, the floodsH5104 have lifted upH5375 their voiceH6963; the floodsH5104 lift upH5375 their wavesH1796.
The LORDH3068 on highH4791 is mightierH117 than the noiseH6963 of manyH7227 watersH4325, yea, than the mightyH117 wavesH4867 of the seaH3220.
What do ye imagineH2803 against the LORDH3068? he will makeH6213 an utter endH3617: afflictionH6869 shall not rise upH6965 the second timeH6471.
For while they be folden togetherH5440 as thornsH5518, and while they are drunkenH5433 as drunkardsH5435, they shall be devouredH398 as stubbleH7179 fullyH4392 dryH3002.
There is one come outH3318 of thee, that imaginethH2803 evilH7451 against the LORDH3068, a wickedH1100 counsellorH3289. {a wicked…: Heb. a counsellor of Belial}
