1
And when King
Hezekiah
heard
it, he tore
his clothes,
covered
himself with sackcloth
and entered
the house
of the LORD.
2
Then he sent
Eliakim
who
was over
the household
with Shebna
the scribe
and the elders
of the priests,
covered
with sackcloth,
to Isaiah
the prophet
the son
of Amoz.
3
They said
to him, "Thus
says
Hezekiah,
'This
day
is a
day
of distress,
rebuke,
and rejection;
for children
have come
to birth
and there is no
strength
to deliver.
4
'
Perhaps
the LORD
your God
will hear
all
the words
of Rabshakeh,
whom
his master
the king
of Assyria
has sent
to reproach
the living
God,
and will rebuke
the words
which
the LORD
your God
has heard.
Therefore, offer
a prayer
for the remnant
that is left.'"
5
So the servants
of King
Hezekiah
came
to Isaiah.
6
Isaiah
said
to them, "Thus
you shall say
to your master,
'Thus
says
the LORD,
"Do not be afraid
because
of the words
that you have heard,
with which
the servants
of the king
of Assyria
have blasphemed
Me.
7
"Behold,
I will put
a spirit
in him so that he will hear
a rumor
and return
to his own land.
And I will make him fall
by the sword
in his own land."'"
8
Then Rabshakeh
returned
and found
the king
of Assyria
fighting
against
Libnah,
for he had heard
that
the king
had left
Lachish.
9
When he heard
them say
concerning
Tirhakah
king
of Cush,
"Behold,
he has come
out to fight
again
st
you," he sent
messengers
again
to Hezekiah
saying,
10
"Thus
you shall say
to Hezekiah
king
of Judah,
'
Do not let your God
in whom
you trust
deceive
you saying,
"Jerusalem
will not be given
into the hand
of the
king
of Assyria."
11
'
Behold,
you have heard
what
the kings
of Assyria
have done
to all
the lands,
destroying them completely.
So will you be spared?
12
Did the gods
of those nations
which
my fathers
destroyed
deliver
them, even Gozan
and Haran
and Rezeph
and the sons
of Eden
who
were in Telassar?
13
Where
is
the king
of Hamath,
the king
of Arpad,
the king
of the city
of Sepharvaim,
and of Hena
and Ivvah?'"
14
Then Hezekiah
took
the letter
from the hand
of the messengers
and read
it, and he went
up to the house
of the LORD
and spread
it out before
the LORD.
15
Hezekiah
prayed
before
the LORD
and said,
"O LORD,
the God
of Israel,
who are enthroned
above the cherubim,
You are
the God
,
You alone,
of all
the kingdoms
of the earth.
You have made
heaven
and earth.
16
"Incline
Your ear,
O LORD,
and hear;
open
Your eyes,
O LORD,
and see;
and listen
to the words
of Sennacherib,
which
he has sent
to reproach
the living
God.
17
"Truly,
O LORD,
the kings
of Assyria
have devastated
the nations
and their lands
18
and have cast
their gods
into the fire,
for they were not gods
but the work
of men's
hands,
wood
and stone.
So they have destroyed
them.
19
"Now,
O LORD
our God,
I pray,
deliver
us from his hand
that all
the kingdoms
of the earth
may know
that You alone,
O LORD
,
are God."
20
Then Isaiah
the son
of Amoz
sent
to Hezekiah
saying,
"Thus
says
the LORD,
the God
of Israel,
'Because
you have prayed
to Me about
Sennacherib
king
of Assyria,
I have heard
you.'
21
"This
is the word
that the LORD
has spoken
against
him: 'She has despised
you and mocked
you, The virgin
daughter
of Zion;
She has shaken
her head
behind
you, The
daughter
of Jerusalem!
22
Whom
have you reproached
and blasphemed?
And against
whom
have you raised
your voice,
And haughtily
lifted
up your eyes?
Against
the Holy One
of Israel!
23
Through
your messengers
you have reproached
the Lord,
And you have said,
"With my many
chariots
I came
up to the heights
of the mountains,
To the remotest parts
of Lebanon;
And I cut down
its tall
cedars
and its choice
cypresses.
And I entered
its farthest
lodging place,
its thickest
forest.
24
"I dug
wells and drank
foreign
waters,
And with the sole
of my feet
I dried
up All
the rivers
of Egypt."
25
'
Have you not heard?
Long ago
I did
it; From ancient
times
I planned
it. Now
I have brought it to pass,
That you should turn
fortified
cities
into ruinous
heaps.
26
'
Therefore their inhabitants
were short
of strength,
They were dismayed
and put to shame;
They were as the vegetation
of the field
and as the green
herb,
As grass
on the housetops
is scorched
before
it is grown
up.
27
'
But I know
your sitting down,
And your going
out and your coming
in, And your raging
against
Me.
28
'
Because
of your raging
against
Me, And because your arrogance
has come
up to My ears,
Therefore I will put
My hook
in your nose,
And My bridle
in your lips,
And I will turn you back
by the way
which
you came.
29
'
Then this
shall be the sign
for you: you will eat
this
year
what grows
of itself, in the second
year
what springs
from the same, and in the third
year
sow,
reap,
plant
vineyards,
and eat
their fruit.
30
'
The surviving remnant
of the house
of Judah
will again
take root
downward
and bear
fruit
upward.
31
'
For out of Jerusalem
will go forth
a remnant,
and out of Mount
Zion
survivors.
The zeal
of the LORD
will perform
this.
32
'
Theref
or
e
thus
says
the LORD
concerning
the king
of Assyria,
"He will not come
to this
city
or
shoot
an arrow
there;
and he will not come bef
or
e
it with a shield
or
throw
up a siege ramp
against
it.
33
"By the way
that he came,
by the same he will return,
and he shall not come
to this
city
,"' declares
the LORD.
34
'
For I will defend
this
city
to save
it for My own sake
and for My servant
David's
sake.'"
35
Then it happened
that night
that the angel
of the LORD
went
out and struck
185,000
in the camp
of the Assyrians;
and when men rose early
in the morning,
behold,
all
of them were dead.
36
So Sennacherib
king
of Assyria
departed
and returned
home, and lived
at Nineveh.
37
It came
about as he was worshiping
in the house
of Nisroch
his god,
that Adrammelech
and Sharezer
killed
him with the sword;
and they escaped
into the land
of Ararat.
And Esarhaddon
his son
became king
in his place.
