Isaiah 37:1-17

37:1

And it came to pass, when king
<04428>

Hezekiah
<02396>

heard
<08085> (8800)

[it], that he rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<0899>_,

and covered
<03680> (8691)

himself with sackcloth
<08242>_,

and went
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

37:2

And he sent
<07971> (8799)

Eliakim
<0471>_,

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

and Shebna
<07644>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

and the elders
<02205>

of the priests
<03548>

covered
<03680> (8693)

with sackcloth
<08242>_,

unto Isaiah
<03470>

the prophet
<05030>

the son
<01121>

of Amoz
<0531>_.

37:3

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Hezekiah
<02396>_,

This day
<03117>

[is] a day
<03117>

of trouble
<06869>_,

and of rebuke
<08433>_,

and of blasphemy
<05007>_:

for the children
<01121>

are come
<0935> (8804)

to the birth
<04866>_,

and [there is] not strength
<03581>

to bring forth
<03205> (8800)_.

{blasphemy: or, provocation}

37:4

It may be the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

will hear
<08085> (8799)

the words
<01697>

of Rabshakeh
<07262>_,

whom the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

his master
<0113>

hath sent
<07971> (8804)

to reproach
<02778> (8763)

the living
<02416>

God
<0430>_,

and will reprove
<03198> (8689)

the words
<01697>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath heard
<08085> (8804)_:

wherefore lift up
<05375> (8804)

[thy] prayer
<08605>

for the remnant
<07611>

that is left
<04672> (8737)_.

{left: Heb. found}

37:5

So the servants
<05650>

of king
<04428>

Hezekiah
<02396>

came
<0935> (8799)

to Isaiah
<03470>_.

37:6

And Isaiah
<03470>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)

unto your master
<0113>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of
<06440>

the words
<01697>

that thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)_,

wherewith the servants
<05288>

of the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

have blasphemed
<01442> (8765)

me.

37:7

Behold, I will send
<05414> (8802)

a blast
<07307>

upon him, and he shall hear
<08085> (8804)

a rumour
<08052>_,

and return
<07725> (8804)

to his own land
<0776>_;

and I will cause him to fall
<05307> (8689)

by the sword
<02719>

in his own land
<0776>_.

{send...: or, put a spirit into him}

37:8

So Rabshakeh
<07262>

returned
<07725> (8799)_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

warring
<03898> (8737)

against Libnah
<03841>_:

for he had heard
<08085> (8804)

that he was departed
<05265> (8804)

from Lachish
<03923>_.

37:9

And he heard
<08085> (8799)

say
<0559> (8800)

concerning Tirhakah
<08640>

king
<04428>

of Ethiopia
<03568>_,

He is come forth
<03318> (8804)

to make war
<03898> (8736)

with thee. And when he heard
<08085> (8799)

[it], he sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

to Hezekiah
<02396>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

37:10

Thus shall ye speak
<0559> (8799)

to Hezekiah
<02396>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let not thy God
<0430>_,

in whom thou trustest
<0982> (8802)_,

deceive
<05377> (8686)

thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Jerusalem
<03389>

shall not be given
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

37:11

Behold, thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)

what the kings
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>

have done
<06213> (8804)

to all lands
<0776>

by destroying them utterly
<02763> (8687)_;

and shalt thou be delivered
<05337> (8735)_?

37:12

Have the gods
<0430>

of the nations
<01471>

delivered
<05337> (8689)

them which my fathers
<01>

have destroyed
<07843> (8689)_,

[as] Gozan
<01470>_,

and Haran
<02771>_,

and Rezeph
<07530>_,

and the children
<01121>

of Eden
<05729>

which [were] in Telassar
<08515>_?

37:13

Where [is] the king
<04428>

of Hamath
<02574>_,

and the king
<04428>

of Arphad
<0774>_,

and the king
<04428>

of the city
<05892>

of Sepharvaim
<05617>_,

Hena
<02012>_,

and Ivah
<05755>_?

37:14

And Hezekiah
<02396>

received
<03947> (8799)

the letter
<05612>

from the hand
<03027>

of the messengers
<04397>_,

and read
<07121> (8799)

it: and Hezekiah
<02396>

went up
<05927> (8799)

unto the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and spread
<06566> (8799)

it before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_.

37:15

And Hezekiah
<02396>

prayed
<06419> (8691)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

37:16

O LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

that dwellest
<03427> (8802)

[between] the cherubims
<03742>_,

thou [art] the God
<0430>_,

[even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_:

thou hast made
<06213> (8804)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>_.

37:17

Incline
<05186> (8685)

thine ear
<0241>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

and hear
<08085> (8798)_;

open
<06491> (8798)

thine eyes
<05869>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

and see
<07200> (8798)_:

and hear
<08085> (8798)

all the words
<01697>

of Sennacherib
<05576>_,

which hath sent
<07971> (8804)

to reproach
<02778> (8763)

the living
<02416>

God
<0430>_.
