Isaiah
Chapter 36
KJV · Textus Receptus
Now it came to pass in thefourteenthyear ofkingHezekiah, thatSennacheribking ofAssyria cameup against all thedefencedcities ofJudah, and took them.
2 And theking ofAssyriasentRabshakeh fromLachish toJerusalem untokingHezekiah with agreatarmy. And hestood by theconduit of theupperpool in thehighway of thefuller's field.
3 Then cameforth unto himEliakim,Hilkiah'sson, which was over thehouse, andShebna thescribe, andJoah,Asaph'sson, the recorder.
4 AndRabshakehsaid unto them,Say ye now toHezekiah, Thussaith thegreatking, theking ofAssyria, Whatconfidence is this wherein thou trustest?
5 Isay, sayest thou, (but they are butvainwords) I havecounsel andstrength forwar: now on whom dost thoutrust, that thou rebellest against me?
6 Lo, thoutrustest in thestaff of thisbrokenreed, onEgypt; whereon if amanlean, it willgo into hishand, andpierce it: so isPharaohking ofEgypt to all that trust in him.
7 But if thousay to me, Wetrust in theLORD ourGod: is it not he, whose highplaces and whosealtarsHezekiah hath takenaway, andsaid toJudah and toJerusalem, Ye shallworshipbefore this altar?
8 Now therefore givepledges, I pray thee, to mymaster theking ofAssyria, and I willgive thee twothousandhorses, if thou beable on thy part toset riders upon them.
9 How then wilt thou turnaway theface ofonecaptain of theleast of mymaster'sservants, and put thytrust onEgypt forchariots and for horsemen?
10 And am I now comeupwithout theLORD against thisland todestroy it? theLORDsaid unto me, Goup against thisland, and destroy it.
11 ThensaidEliakim andShebna andJoah untoRabshakeh,Speak, I pray thee, unto thyservants in the Syrianlanguage; for weunderstand it: andspeak not to us in the Jews'language, in theears of thepeople that are on the wall.
12 ButRabshakehsaid, Hath mymastersent me to thymaster and to thee tospeak thesewords? hath he not sent me to themen thatsit upon thewall, that they mayeat their owndung, anddrink their ownpiss with you?
13 ThenRabshakehstood, andcried with aloudvoice in the Jews'language, andsaid,Hear ye thewords of thegreatking, theking of Assyria.
14 Thussaith theking, Let notHezekiahdeceive you: for he shall not beable to deliver you.
15 Neither letHezekiah make youtrust in theLORD,saying, TheLORD willsurelydeliver us: thiscity shall not bedelivered into thehand of theking of Assyria.
16Hearken not toHezekiah: for thussaith theking ofAssyria,Make an agreement with me by apresent, and comeout to me: andeat ye everyone of hisvine, and everyone of his figtree, anddrink ye everyone thewaters of his own cistern;
17 Until Icome and take youaway to aland like your ownland, aland ofcorn andwine, aland ofbread and vineyards.
18 Beware lestHezekiahpersuade you,saying, TheLORD willdeliver us. Hathany of thegods of thenationsdelivered hisland out of thehand of theking of Assyria?
19 Where are thegods ofHamath andArphad? where are thegods ofSepharvaim? and have theydeliveredSamaria out of my hand?
20 Who are they among all thegods of theselands, that havedelivered theirland out of myhand, that theLORD shoulddeliverJerusalem out of my hand?
21 But they held theirpeace, andanswered him not aword: for theking'scommandment was,saying, Answer him not.
22 ThencameEliakim, theson ofHilkiah, that was over thehousehold, andShebna thescribe, andJoah, theson ofAsaph, therecorder, toHezekiah with theirclothesrent, andtold him thewords of Rabshakeh.
