Isaiah 36:8-22

36:8

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}

36:9

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>_?

36:10

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.

36:11

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Eliakim
<0471>

and Shebna
<07644>

and Joah
<03098>

unto Rabshakeh
<07262>_,

Speak
<01696> (8761)_,

I pray thee, unto thy servants
<05650>

in the Syrian language
<0762>_;

for we understand
<08085> (8802)

[it]: and speak
<01696> (8762)

not to us in the Jews' language
<03066>_,

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>

that [are] on the wall
<02346>_.

36:12

But Rabshakeh
<07262>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hath my master
<0113>

sent
<07971> (8804)

me to thy master
<0113>

and to thee to speak
<01696> (8763)

these words
<01697>_?

[hath he] not [sent me] to the men
<0582>

that sit
<03427> (8802)

upon the wall
<02346>_,

that they may eat
<0398> (8800)

their own dung
<02716> (8676) <06675>_,

and drink
<08354> (8800)

their own piss
<04325> <07272> (8675) <07890>

with you?

36:13

Then Rabshakeh
<07262>

stood
<05975> (8799)_,

and cried
<07121> (8799)

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>

in the Jews' language
<03066>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye the words
<01697>

of the great
<01419>

king
<04428>_,

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

36:14

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the king
<04428>_,

Let not Hezekiah
<02396>

deceive
<05377> (8686)

you: for he shall not be able
<03201> (8799)

to deliver
<05337> (8687)

you.

36:15

Neither let Hezekiah
<02396>

make you trust
<0982> (8686)

in the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD
<03068>

will surely
<05337> (8687)

deliver
<05337> (8686)

us: this city
<05892>

shall not be delivered
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

36:16

Hearken
<08085> (8799)

not to Hezekiah
<02396>_:

for thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

Make
<06213> (8798)

[an agreement] with me [by] a present
<01293>_,

and come out
<03318> (8798)

to me: and eat
<0398> (8798)

ye every one
<0376>

of his vine
<01612>_,

and every one
<0376>

of his fig tree
<08384>_,

and drink
<08354> (8798)

ye every one
<0376>

the waters
<04325>

of his own cistern
<0953>_;

{Make...: or, Seek my favour by a present: Heb. Make with me a blessing}

36:17

Until I come
<0935> (8800)

and take you away
<03947> (8804)

to a land
<0776>

like your own land
<0776>_,

a land
<0776>

of corn
<01715>

and wine
<08492>_,

a land
<0776>

of bread
<03899>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

36:18

[Beware] lest Hezekiah
<02396>

persuade
<05496> (8686)

you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD
<03068>

will deliver
<05337> (8686)

us. Hath any
<0376>

of the gods
<0430>

of the nations
<01471>

delivered
<05337> (8689)

his land
<0776>

out of the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_?

36:19

Where [are] the gods
<0430>

of Hamath
<02574>

and Arphad
<0774>_?

where [are] the gods
<0430>

of Sepharvaim
<05617>_?

and have they delivered
<05337> (8689)

Samaria
<08111>

out of my hand
<03027>_?

36:20

Who [are they] among all the gods
<0430>

of these lands
<0776>_,

that have delivered
<05337> (8689)

their land
<0776>

out of my hand
<03027>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

should deliver
<05337> (8686)

Jerusalem
<03389>

out of my hand
<03027>_?

36:21

But they held their peace
<02790> (8686)_,

and answered
<06030> (8804)

him not a word
<01697>_:

for the king's
<04428>

commandment
<04687>

was, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Answer
<06030> (8799)

him not.

36:22

Then came
<0935> (8799)

Eliakim
<0471>_,

the son
<01121>

of Hilkiah
<02518>_,

that [was] over the household
<01004>_,

and Shebna
<07644>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

and Joah
<03098>_,

the son
<01121>

of Asaph
<0623>_,

the recorder
<02142> (8688)_,

to Hezekiah
<02396>

with [their] clothes
<0899>

rent
<07167> (8803)_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

him the words
<01697>

of Rabshakeh
<07262>_.
