Isa 36:1 Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the defenced cities of Judah, and took them.

Isa 36:2 And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem unto king Hezekiah with a great army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field.

Isa 36:3 Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's son, the recorder.

Isa 36:4 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?

’āmarətî ’aḵ-dəḇar-śəp̱āṯayim ‘ēṣāh ûg̱əḇûrāh lammiləḥāmāh ‘attāh ‘al-mî ḇāṭaḥətā kî māraḏətā bî

Isa 36:5 I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

Isa 36:6 Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.

Isa 36:7 But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?

wə‘attāh hiṯə‘āreḇ nā’ ’eṯ-’ăḏōnî hammeleḵ ’aššûr wə’ettənāh ləḵā ’aləpayim sûsîm ’im-tûḵal lāṯeṯ ləḵā rōḵəḇîm ‘ălêhem

Isa 36:8 Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.

Isa 36:9 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

Isa 36:10 And am I now come up without the LORD against this land to destroy it? the LORD said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

wayyō’mer ’eləyāqîm wəšeḇənā’ wəyô’āḥ ’el-raḇ-šāqēh dabber-nā’ ’el-‘ăḇāḏeyḵā ’ărāmîṯ kî šōmə‘îm ’ănāḥənû wə’al-təḏabbēr ’ēlênû yəhûḏîṯ bə’āzənê hā‘ām ’ăšer ‘al-haḥômāh

Isa 36:11 Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.

wayyō’mer wayyō’mer raḇ-raḇ-šāqēh šāqēh ha’el ha’el ’ăḏōneyḵā ’ăḏōneyḵā wə’ēleyḵā wə’ēleyḵā šəlāḥanî šəlāḥanî ’ăḏōnî ’ăḏōnî ləḏabbēr ləḏabbēr ’eṯ-’eṯ-haddəḇārîm haddəḇārîm hā’ēlleh hā’ēlleh hălō’ hălō’ ‘al-‘al-hā’ănāšîm hā’ănāšîm hayyōšəḇîm hayyōšəḇîm ‘al-‘al-haḥômāh haḥômāh le’ĕḵōl le’ĕḵōl ṣô’āṯām ’eṯ-wəlišətôṯ ṣô’āṯām mêmê wəlišətôṯ ’eṯ-rag̱əlêhem ‘immāḵem mêmê rag̱əlêhem ‘immāḵem

Isa 36:12 But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?

wayya‘ămōḏ raḇ-šāqēh wayyiqərā’ ḇəqôl-gāḏôl yəhûḏîṯ wayyō’mer šimə‘û ’eṯ-diḇərê hammeleḵ haggāḏôl meleḵ ’aššûr

Isa 36:13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

kōh ’āmar hammeleḵ ’al-yašši’ lāḵem ḥizəqiyyāhû kî lō’-yûḵal ləhaṣṣîl ’eṯəḵem

Isa 36:14 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you.

wə’al-yaḇəṭaḥ ’eṯəḵem ḥizəqiyyāhû ’el-yəhwāh lē’mōr haṣṣēl yaṣṣîlēnû yəhwāh lō’ ṯinnāṯēn hā‘îr hazzō’ṯ bəyaḏ meleḵ ’aššûr

Isa 36:15 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us: this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.

’al-tišəmə‘û ’el-ḥizəqiyyāhû kî ḵōh ’āmar hammeleḵ ’aššûr ‘ăśû-’ittî ḇərāḵāh ûṣə’û ’ēlay wə’iḵəlû ’îš-gap̱ənô wə’îš tə’ēnāṯô ûšəṯû ’îš mê-ḇôrô

Isa 36:16 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me: and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern;

‘aḏ-bō’î wəlāqaḥətî ’eṯəḵem ’el-’ereṣ kə’arəṣəḵem ’ereṣ dāg̱ān wəṯîrôš ’ereṣ leḥem ûḵərāmîm

Isa 36:17 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

pen-yassîṯ ’eṯəḵem ḥizəqiyyāhû lē’mōr yəhwāh yaṣṣîlēnû hahiṣṣîlû ’ĕlōhê haggôyim ’îš ’eṯ-’arəṣô miyyaḏ meleḵ ’aššûr

Isa 36:18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, the LORD will deliver us. Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

’ayyēh ’ĕlōhê ḥămāṯ wə’arəpāḏ ’ayyēh ’ĕlōhê səp̱arəwāyim wəḵî-hiṣṣîlû ’eṯ-šōmərôn miyyāḏî

Isa 36:19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arphad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?

mî bəḵāl-’ĕlōhê hā’ărāṣôṯ hā’ēlleh ’ăšer-hiṣṣîlû ’eṯ-’arəṣām miyyāḏî kî-yaṣṣîl yəhwāh ’eṯ-yərûšālaim miyyāḏî

Isa 36:20 Who are they among all the gods of these lands, that have delivered their land out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?

wayyaḥărîšû wəlō’-‘ānû ’ōṯô dāḇār kî-miṣəwaṯ hammeleḵ hî’ lē’mōr lō’ ṯa‘ănuhû

Isa 36:21 But they held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.

wayyāḇō’ ’eləyāqîm ben-ḥiləqiyyāhû ’ăšer-‘al-habbayiṯ wəšeḇənā’ hassôp̱ēr wəyô’āḥ ben-’āsāp̱ hammazəkîr ’el-ḥizəqiyyāhû qərû‘ê ḇəg̱āḏîm wayyaggîḏû lô ’ēṯ diḇərê raḇ-šāqēh

Isa 36:22 Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
