And it came to pass, when king 4428 Hezekiah 2396 heard 8085-2 [it], that he rent 7167-4 his clothes, 899 and covered 3680-101 himself with sackcloth, 8242 and went 935-4 into the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068 |
| 2 |
And he sent 7971-4 Eliakim, 471 which [was] over the household, 1004 and Shebna 7644 the scribe, 5608-6 and the elders 2205 of the priests, 3548 covered 3680-102 with sackcloth, 8242 to Isaiah 3470 the prophet 5030 the son 1121 of Amoz. 531 |
| 3 |
And they said 559-4 unto him, Thus saith 559-1 Hezekiah, 2396 This day 3117 [is] a day 3117 of trouble, 6869 and of rebuke, 8433 and blasphemy: 5007 for the children 1121 are come 935-1 to the birth, 4866 and [there is] not strength 3581 to bring forth. 3205-2 |
| 4 |
It may be 194 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 will hear 8085-4 all the words 1697 of Rabshakeh, 7262 whom the king 4428 of Assyria 804 his master 113 hath sent 7971-1 to reproach 2778-15 the living 2416 God; 430 and will reprove 3198-52 the words 1697 which the LORD 3068 thy God 430 hath heard: 8085-1 wherefore lift up 5375-1 [thy] prayer 8605 for the remnant 7611 that are left. 4672-12 |
| 5 |
So the servants 5650 of king 4428 Hezekiah 2396 came 935-4 to Isaiah. 3470 |
| 6 |
And Isaiah 3470 said 559-4 unto them, Thus shall ye say 559-4 to your master, 113 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 Be not afraid 3372-4 of 6440 the words 1697 which thou hast heard, 8085-1 with which the servants 5288 of the king 4428 of Assyria 804 have blasphemed 1442-14 me. |
| 7 |
Behold, I will send 5414-6 a blast 7307 upon him, and he shall hear 8085-1 a rumour, 8052 and shall return 7725-1 to his own land; 776 and I will cause him to fall 5307-52 by the sword 2719 in his own land. 776 |
| 8 |
So Rabshakeh 7262 returned, 7725-4 and found 4672-4 the king 4428 of Assyria 804 warring 3898-12 against Libnah: 3841 for he had heard 8085-1 that he was departed 5265-1 from Lachish. 3923 |
| 9 |
And when he heard 8085-4 say 559-2 of Tirhakah 8640 king 4428 of Ethiopia, 3568 Behold, he is come out 3318-1 to fight 3898-9 against thee: he sent 7971-4 messengers 4397 again 7725-4 unto Hezekiah, 2396 saying, 559-2 |
| 10 |
Thus shall ye speak 559-4 to Hezekiah 2396 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 saying, 559-2 Let not thy God 430 in whom thou trustest 982-6 deceive 5377-55 thee, saying, 559-2 Jerusalem 3389 shall not be delivered 5414-11 into the hand 3027 of the king 4428 of Assyria. 804 |
| 11 |
Behold, thou hast heard 8085-1 what the kings 4428 of Assyria 804 have done 6213-1 to all lands, 776 by destroying them utterly: 2763-53 and shalt thou be delivered? 5337-11 |
| 12 |
Have the gods 430 of the nations 1471 delivered 5337-52 them which my fathers 1 have destroyed; 7843-14 [as] Gozan, 1470 and Haran, 2771 and Rezeph, 7530 and the children 1121 of Eden 5729 which [were] in Thelasar? 8515 |
| 13 |
Where [is] the king 4428 of Hamath, 2574 and the king 4428 of Arpad, 774 and the king 4428 of the city 5892 of Sepharvaim, 5617 of Hena, 2012 and Ivah? 5755 |
| 14 |
And Hezekiah 2396 received 3947-4 the letter 5612 of the hand 3027 of the messengers, 4397 and read 7121-4 it: and Hezekiah 2396 went up 5927-4 into the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 and spread 6566-4 it before 6440 the LORD. 3068 |
| 15 |
And Hezekiah 2396 prayed 6419-101 before 6440 the LORD, 3068 and said, 559-4 O LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 which dwellest 3427-6 [between] the cherubims, 3742 thou art the God, 430 [even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms 4467 of the earth; 776 thou hast made 6213-1 heaven 8064 and earth. 776 |
| 16 |
LORD, 3068 bow down 5186-54 thine ear, 241 and hear: 8085-3 open, 6491-3 LORD, 3068 thine eyes, 5869 and see: 7200-3 and hear 8085-3 the words 1697 of Sennacherib, 5576 which hath sent 7971-1 him to reproach 2778-15 the living 2416 God. 430 |
| 17 |
Of a truth, 551 LORD, 3068 the kings 4428 of Assyria 804 have destroyed 2717-52 the nations 1471 and their lands, 776 |
| 18 |
And have cast 5414-1 their gods 430 into the fire: 784 for they [were] no gods, 430 but the work 4639 of men's 120 hands, 3027 wood 6086 and stone: 68 therefore they have destroyed 6-17 them. |
| 19 |
Now therefore, O LORD 3068 our God, 430 I beseech thee, save 3467-54 thou us out of his hand, 3027 that all the kingdoms 4467 of the earth 776 may know 3045-4 that thou [art] the LORD 3068 God, 430 [even] thou only. |
| 20 |
Then Isaiah 3470 the son 1121 of Amoz 531 sent 7971-4 to Hezekiah, 2396 saying, 559-2 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 [That] which thou hast prayed 6419-98 to me against Sennacherib 5576 king 4428 of Assyria 804 I have heard. 8085-1 |
| 21 |
This [is] the word 1697 that the LORD 3068 hath spoken 1696-14 concerning him; The virgin 1330 the daughter 1323 of Zion 6726 hath despised 959-1 thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn; 3932-1 the daughter 1323 of Jerusalem 3389 hath shaken 5128-52 her head 7218 at 310 thee. |
| 22 |
Whom hast thou reproached 2778-14 and blasphemed? 1442-14 and against whom hast thou exalted 7311-52 [thy] voice, 6963 and lifted up 5375-4 thine eyes 5869 on high? 4791 [even] against the Holy 6918 [One] of Israel. 3478 |
| 23 |
By 3027 thy messengers 4397 thou hast reproached 2778-14 the Lord, 136 and hast said, 559-4 With the multitude 7230|7393-q of my chariots 7393 I am come up 5927-1 to the height 4791 of the mountains, 2022 to the sides 3411 of Lebanon, 3844 and will cut down 3772-4 the tall 6967 cedar trees 730 thereof, [and] the choice 4004 fir trees 1265 thereof: and I will enter 935-4 into the lodgings 4411 of his borders, 7093 [and into] the forest 3293 of his Carmel. 3760 |
| 24 |
I have digged 6979-1 and drunk 8354-1 strange 2114-5 waters, 4325 and with the sole 3709 of my feet 6471 have I dried up 2717-55 all the rivers 2975 of besieged places. 4693|4692 |
| 25 |
Hast thou not heard 8085-1 long ago 7350 [how] I have done 6213-1 it, [and] of ancient 6924 times 3117 that I have formed 3335-1 it? now have I brought it to pass, 935-52 that thou shouldest be to lay waste 7582-53 fenced 1219-7 cities 5892 [into] ruinous 5327-12 heaps. 1530 |
| 26 |
Therefore their inhabitants 3427-6 were of small 7116 power, 3027 they were dismayed 2865-1 and confounded; 954-4 they were [as] the grass 6212 of the field, 7704 and [as] the green 3419 herb, 1877 [as] the grass 2682 on the housetops, 1406 and [as corn] blasted 7711 before 6440 it be grown up. 7054 |
| 27 |
But I know 3045-1 thy abode, 3427-2 and thy going out, 3318-2 and thy coming in, 935-2 and thy rage 7264-99 against me. |
| 28 |
Because thy rage 7264-99 against me and thy tumult 7600 is come up 5927-1 into mine ears, 241 therefore I will put 7760-1 my hook 2397 in thy nose, 639 and my bridle 4964 in thy lips, 8193 and I will turn thee back 7725-52 by the way 1870 by which thou camest. 935-1 |
| 29 |
And this [shall be] a sign 226 unto thee, Ye shall eat 398-2 this year 8141 such things as grow of themselves, 5599 and in the second 8145 year 8141 that which springeth 7823 of the same; and in the third 7992 year 8141 sow 2232-3 ye, and reap, 7114-3 and plant 5193-3 vineyards, 3754 and eat 398-3 the fruits 6529 thereof. |
| 30 |
And the remnant 7604-12 that is escaped 6413 of the house 1004 of Judah 3063 shall yet again 3254-1 take root 8328 downward, 4295 and bear 6213-1 fruit 6529 upward. 4605 |
| 31 |
For out of Jerusalem 3389 shall go forth 3318-4 a remnant, 7611 and they that escape 6413 out of mount 2022 Zion: 6726 the zeal 7068 of the LORD 3068 [of hosts] 6635-q shall do 6213-4 this. |
| 32 |
Therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 concerning the king 4428 of Assyria, 804 He shall not come 935-4 into this city, 5892 nor shoot 3384-55 an arrow 2671 there, nor come before 6923-17 it with shield, 4043 nor cast 8210-4 a bank 5550 against it. |
| 33 |
By the way 1870 that he came, 935-4 by the same shall he return, 7725-4 and shall not come 935-4 into this city, 5892 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068 |
| 34 |
For I will defend 1598-1 this city, 5892 to save 3467-53 it, for mine own sake, and for my servant 5650 David's 1732 sake. |
| 35 |
And it came to pass that night, 3915 that the angel 4397 of the LORD 3068 went out, 3318-4 and smote 5221-55 in the camp 4264 of the Assyrians 804 an hundred 3967 fourscore 8084 and five 2568 thousand: 505 and when they arose early 7925-55 in the morning, 1242 behold, they [were] all dead 4191-5 corpses. 6297 |
| 36 |
So Sennacherib 5576 king 4428 of Assyria 804 departed, 5265-4 and went 3212-4 and returned, 7725-4 and dwelt 3427-4 at Nineveh. 5210 |
| 37 |
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping 7812-102 in the house 1004 of Nisroch 5268 his god, 430 that Adrammelech 152 and Sharezer 8272 his sons 1121 smote 5221-52 him with the sword: 2719 and they escaped 4422-8 into the land 776 of Armenia. 780 And Esarhaddon 634 his son 1121 reigned 4427-4 in his stead. |
