5

I sayh559h8804, sayest thou , (but they are but vainh8193 wordsh1697) I have counselh6098 and strengthh1369 for warh4421: now on whom dost thou trusth982h8804, that thou rebellesth4775h8804 against me? vain...: Heb. a word of lips

6

Lo, thou trustesth982h8804 in the staffh4938 of this brokenh7533h8803 reedh7070, on Egypth4714; whereon if a manh376 leanh5564h8735, it will goh935h8804 into his handh3709, and pierceh5344h8804 it: so is Pharaohh6547 kingh4428 of Egypth4714 to all that trusth982h8802 in him.

7

But if thou sayh559h8799 to me, We trusth982h8804 in the LORDh3068 our Godh430: is it not he, whose high placesh1116 and whose altarsh4196 Hezekiahh2396 hath taken awayh5493h8689, and saidh559h8799 to Judahh3063 and to Jerusalemh3389, Ye shall worshiph7812h8691 beforeh6440 this altarh4196?

Now therefore give pledgesh6148h8690, I pray thee, to my masterh113 the kingh4428 of Assyriah804, and I will giveh5414h8799 thee two thousandh505 horsesh5483, if thou be ableh3201h8799 on thy part to seth5414h8800 ridersh7392h8802 upon them. pledges: or, hostages

How then wilt thou turn awayh7725h8686 the faceh6440 of oneh259 captainh6346 of the leasth6996 of my master'sh113 servantsh5650, and put thy trusth982h8799 on Egypth4714 for chariotsh7393 and for horsemenh6571?

10

And am I now come uph5927h8804 withouth1107 the LORDh3068 against this landh776 to destroyh7843h8687 it? the LORDh3068 saidh559h8804 unto me, Go uph5927h8798 against this landh776, and destroyh7843h8685 it.

11

Then saidh559h8799 Eliakimh471 and Shebnah7644 and Joahh3098 unto Rabshakehh7262, Speakh1696h8761, I pray thee, unto thy servantsh5650 in the Syrian languageh762; for we understandh8085h8802 it : and speakh1696h8762 not to us in the Jews' languageh3066, in the earsh241 of the peopleh5971 that are on the wallh2346.

12

But Rabshakehh7262 saidh559h8799, Hath my masterh113 senth7971h8804 me to thy masterh113 and to thee to speakh1696h8763 these wordsh1697? hath he not sent me to the menh582 that sith3427h8802 upon the wallh2346, that they may eath398h8800 their own dungh2716h8676h6675, and drinkh8354h8800 their own pissh4325h7272h8675h7890 with you?

13

Then Rabshakehh7262 stoodh5975h8799, and criedh7121h8799 with a loudh1419 voiceh6963 in the Jews' languageh3066, and saidh559h8799, Hearh8085h8798 ye the wordsh1697 of the greath1419 kingh4428, the kingh4428 of Assyriah804.

14

Thus saithh559h8804 the kingh4428, Let not Hezekiahh2396 deceiveh5377h8686 you: for he shall not be ableh3201h8799 to deliverh5337h8687 you.

15

Neither let Hezekiahh2396 make you trusth982h8686 in the LORDh3068, sayingh559h8800, The LORDh3068 will surelyh5337h8687 deliverh5337h8686 us: this cityh5892 shall not be deliveredh5414h8735 into the handh3027 of the kingh4428 of Assyriah804.

16

Hearkenh8085h8799 not to Hezekiahh2396: for thus saithh559h8804 the kingh4428 of Assyriah804, Makeh6213h8798 an agreement with me by a presenth1293, and come outh3318h8798 to me: and eath398h8798 ye every oneh376 of his vineh1612, and every oneh376 of his fig treeh8384, and drinkh8354h8798 ye every oneh376 the watersh4325 of his own cisternh953; Make...: or, Seek my favour by a present: Heb.

18

Beware lest Hezekiahh2396 persuadeh5496h8686 you, sayingh559h8800, The LORDh3068 will deliverh5337h8686 us. Hath anyh376 of the godsh430 of the nationsh1471 deliveredh5337h8689 his landh776 out of the handh3027 of the kingh4428 of Assyriah804?

19

Where are the godsh430 of Hamathh2574 and Arphadh774? where are the godsh430 of Sepharvaimh5617? and have they deliveredh5337h8689 Samariah8111 out of my handh3027?

20

Who are they among all the godsh430 of these landsh776, that have deliveredh5337h8689 their landh776 out of my handh3027, that the LORDh3068 should deliverh5337h8686 Jerusalemh3389 out of my handh3027?

21

But they held their peaceh2790h8686, and answeredh6030h8804 him not a wordh1697: for the king'sh4428 commandmenth4687 was, sayingh559h8800, Answerh6030h8799 him not.

22

Then cameh935h8799 Eliakimh471, the sonh1121 of Hilkiahh2518, that was over the householdh1004, and Shebnah7644 the scribeh5608h8802, and Joahh3098, the sonh1121 of Asaphh623, the recorderh2142h8688, to Hezekiahh2396 with their clothesh899 renth7167h8803, and toldh5046h8686 him the wordsh1697 of Rabshakehh7262.
