NETBible

But the chief adviser said to them, “My master did not send me to speak these words only to your master and to you. 1  His message is also for the men who sit on the wall, for they will eat their own excrement and drink their own urine along with you.” 2 

NET Notes

tn Heb “To your master and to you did my master send me to speak these words?” The rhetorical question expects a negative answer.

tn Heb “[Is it] not [also] to the men…?” The rhetorical question expects the answer, “Yes, it is.”

sn The chief adviser alludes to the horrible reality of siege warfare, when the starving people in the besieged city would resort to eating and drinking anything to stay alive.
