Isaiah 36:4-10

And Rabshakeh
<07262>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Say
<0559> (8798)
ye now to Hezekiah
<02396>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the great
<01419>
king
<04428>_,
the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
What confidence
<0986>
[is] this wherein thou trustest
<0982> (8804)_?
I say
<0559> (8804)_,
[sayest thou], (but [they are but] vain
<08193>
words
<01697>)
[I have] counsel
<06098>
and strength
<01369>
for war
<04421>_:
now on whom dost thou trust
<0982> (8804)_,
that thou rebellest
<04775> (8804)
against me? {vain...: Heb. a word of lips} {I have...: or, but counsel and strength are for the war}
Lo, thou trustest
<0982> (8804)
in the staff
<04938>
of this broken
<07533> (8803)
reed
<07070>_,
on Egypt
<04714>_;
whereon if a man
<0376>
lean
<05564> (8735)_,
it will go
<0935> (8804)
into his hand
<03709>_,
and pierce
<05344> (8804)
it: so [is] Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
to all that trust
<0982> (8802)
in him.
But if thou say
<0559> (8799)
to me, We trust
<0982> (8804)
in the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_:
[is it] not he, whose high places
<01116>
and whose altars
<04196>
Hezekiah
<02396>
hath taken away
<05493> (8689)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to Judah
<03063>
and to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
Ye shall worship
<07812> (8691)
before
<06440>
this altar
<04196>_?
Now therefore give pledges
<06148> (8690)_,
I pray thee, to my master
<0113>
the king
<04428>
of Assyria
<0804>_,
and I will give
<05414> (8799)
thee two thousand
<0505>
horses
<05483>_,
if thou be able
<03201> (8799)
on thy part to set
<05414> (8800)
riders
<07392> (8802)
upon them. {pledges: or, hostages}
How then wilt thou turn away
<07725> (8686)
the face
<06440>
of one
<0259>
captain
<06346>
of the least
<06996>
of my master's
<0113>
servants
<05650>_,
and put thy trust
<0982> (8799)
on Egypt
<04714>
for chariots
<07393>
and for horsemen
<06571>_?
And am I now come up
<05927> (8804)
without
<01107>
the LORD
<03068>
against this land
<0776>
to destroy
<07843> (8687)
it? the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto me, Go up
<05927> (8798)
against this land
<0776>_,
and destroy
<07843> (8685)
it.
