1
Now in the fourteenth
year
of King
Hezekiah,
Sennacherib
king
of Assyria
came
up against
all
the fortified
cities
of Judah
and seized
them.
2
And the king
of Assyria
sent
Rabshakeh
from Lachish
to Jerusalem
to King
Hezekiah
with a large
army.
And he stood
by the conduit
of the upper
pool
on the highway
of the fuller's
field.
3
Then Eliakim
the son
of Hilkiah,
who
was over
the household,
and Shebna
the scribe,
and Joah
the son
of Asaph,
the recorder,
came
out to him.
4
Then Rabshakeh
said
to them, "Say
now
to Hezekiah,
'Thus
says
the great
king,
the king
of Assyria,
"What
is this
confidence
that you have?
5
"I say,
'Your counsel
and strength
for the war
are only
empty
words.'
Now
on whom
do you rely,
that you have rebelled
against me?
6
"Behold,
you rely
on the staff
of this
crushed
reed,
even on Egypt,
on which
if a man
leans,
it will go
into his hand
and pierce
it. So
is Pharaoh
king
of Egypt
to all
who rely
on him.
7
"But if
you say
to me, 'We trust
in the LORD
our God,'
is it not He whose
high places
and whose altars
Hezekiah
has taken away
and has said
to Judah
and to Jerusalem,
'You shall worship
before
this
altar '?
8
"Now
therefore, come
make a bargain
with my master
the king
of Assyria,
and I will give
you two thousand
horses,
if
you are able
on your part to set
riders
on them.
9
"How
then can you repulse
one
official
of the least
of my master's
servants
and rely
on Egypt
for chariots
and for horsemen?
10
"Have I now
come
up without
the LORD'S
approval against
this
land
to destroy
it? The LORD
said
to me, 'Go
up against
this
land
and destroy
it.'"'"
11
Then Eliakim
and Shebna
and Joah
said
to Rabshakeh,
"Speak
now
to your servants
in Aramaic,
for we understand
it; and do not speak
with us in Judean
in the hearing
of the people
who
are on the wall."
12
But Rabshakeh
said,
"Has my master
sent
me only to your master
and to you to speak
these
words,
and not to the men
who sit
on the wall,
doomed to eat
their own dung
and drink
their own urine
with you?"
13
Then Rabshakeh
stood
and cried
with a loud
voice
in Judean
and said,
"Hear
the words
of the great
king,
the king
of Assyria.
14
"Thus
says
the king,
'Do not let Hezekiah
deceive
you, for he will not be able
to deliver
you;
15
nor
let Hezekiah
make you trust
in the LORD,
saying,
"The LORD
will surely
deliver
us, this
city
will not be given
into the hand
of the king
of Assyria."
16
'
Do not listen
to Hezekiah,'
for thus
says
the king
of Assyria,
'
Make
your peace
with me and come
out to me, and eat
each
of his vine
and
each
of his fig tree
and drink
each
of the waters
of his own cistern,
17
until
I come
and take
you away to
a land
like your own land,
a land
of grain
and new wine,
a land
of bread
and vineyards.
18
Beware that Hezekiah
does not mislead
you, saying,
"The LORD
will deliver
us." Has any one
of the gods
of the nations
delivered
his land
from the hand
of the king
of Assyria?
19
'
Where
are the gods
of Hamath
and Arpad?
Where
are the gods
of Sepharvaim?
And when
have they delivered
Samaria
from my hand?
20
'
Who
among all
the gods
of these
lands
have delivered
their land
from my hand,
that the LORD
would deliver
Jerusalem
from my hand?'"
21
But they were silent
and answered
him not a word;
for the king's
commandment
was, "Do not answer
him."
22
Then Eliakim
the son
of Hilkiah,
who
was over
the household,
and Shebna
the scribe
and Joah
the son
of Asaph,
the recorder,
came
to Hezekiah
with their clothes
torn
and told
him the words
of Rabshakeh.
