|
18:1 ¶
Now it came to pass°
in the third°
year°
of Hoshea°
son°
of Elah°
king°
of Israel,°
[that] Hezekiah°
the son°
of Ahaz°
king°
of Judah°
began to reign.°° |
|
18:2
Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Abu, daughter of Zechariah{gr.Zacharias}. |
|
18:2
Twenty°
and five°
years°
old°
was°
he when he began to reign;°°
and he reigned°°
twenty°
and nine°
years°
in Jerusalem.°
His mother's°
name°
also [was] Abi,°
the daughter°
of Zachariah.° |
|
18:3
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did. |
|
18:3
And he did°°
[that which was] right°
in the sight°
of Yahweh,°
according to all°
that°
David°
his father°
did.°° |
|
18:4 ¶
He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the brazen serpent which Mosheh{gr.Moses} made: because until those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Neesthan. |
|
18:4 ¶
He°
removed°°°
the high places,°
and brake°°°
the images,°
and cut down°°°
the groves,°
and brake in pieces°°
the brasen°
serpent°
that°
Moses°
had made:°°
for°
unto°
those°
days°
the children°
of Israel°
did°
burn incense°°
to it: and he called°°
it Nehushtan.° |
|
18:5
He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; and after him there was not any like him among the kings of Judah{gr.Juda}, nor among those that were before him. |
|
18:5
He trusted°°
in Yahweh°
Elohim°
of Israel;°
so that after°
him was°
none°
like him°
among all°
the kings°
of Judah,°
nor [any] that°
were°
before°
him. |
|
18:6
And he clave to the Lord, he departed not from following him; and he kept his commandments, as many as he commanded Mosheh{gr.Moses}. |
|
18:6
For he clave°°
to Yahweh,°
[and] departed°°
not°
from following°°
him, but kept°°
his commandments,°
which°
Yahweh°
commanded°°°
Moses.° |
|
18:7
And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook: and he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not. |
|
18:7
And Yahweh°
was°
with°
him; [and] he prospered°°
whithersoever°°
he went forth:°°
and he rebelled°°
against the king°
of Assyria,°
and served°°
him not.° |
|
18:8
He smote the Philistines [even] to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city. |
|
18:8
He°
smote°°°
the Philistines,°
[even] unto°
Gaza,°
and the borders°
thereof, from the tower°°
of the watchmen°°
to°
the fenced°
city.° |
|
18:9 ¶
And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} (this is the seventh year of Hosea{gr.Osee} son of Elah{gr.Ela} king of Israel,) [that] Salamanassar king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it. |
|
18:9 ¶
And it came to pass°
in the fourth°
year°
of king°
Hezekiah,°
which°
[was] the seventh°
year°
of Hoshea°
son°
of Elah°
king°
of Israel,°
[that] Shalmaneser°
king°
of Assyria°
came up°°
against°
Samaria,°
and besieged°°°
it. |
|
18:10
And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}, (this [is] the ninth year of Hosea{gr.Osee} king of Israel, when Samaria was taken.) |
|
18:10
And at the end°°
of three°
years°
they took°°
it: [even] in the sixth°
year°
of Hezekiah,°
that°
[is] the ninth°
year°
of Hoshea°
king°
of Israel,°
Samaria°
was taken.°° |
|
18:11
And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Alae and in Abor, [by] the river Gozan, and [in] the mountains of the Medes; |
|
18:11
And the king°
of Assyria°
did carry away°°°
Israel°
unto Assyria,°
and put°°
them in Halah°
and in Habor°
[by] the river°
of Gozan,°
and in the cities°
of the Medes:° |
|
18:12
because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed his covenant, [even] in all things that Mosheh{gr.Moses} the servant of the Lord commanded, and hearkened not [to them], nor did [them]. |
|
18:12
Because°°
they obeyed°°
not°
the voice°
of Yahweh°
their Elohim,°
but transgressed°°°
his covenant,°
[and]°
all°
that°
Moses°
the servant°
of Yahweh°
commanded,°°
and would not°
hear°°
[them], nor°
do°°
[them]. |
|
18:13 ¶
And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} came up Sennacherib{gr.Sennacherim} king of the Assyrians against the strong cities of Judah{gr.Juda}, and took them. |
|
18:13 ¶
Now in the fourteenth°°
year°
of king°
Hezekiah°
did Sennacherib°
king°
of Assyria°
come up°°
against°
all°
the fenced°°
cities°
of Judah,°
and took°°
them. |
|
18:14
And Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachish{gr.Lachis}, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatsoever thou shalt lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} [a tribute of] three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold. |
|
18:14
And Hezekiah°
king°
of Judah°
sent°°
to°
the king°
of Assyria°
to Lachish,°
saying,°°
I have offended;°°
return°°
from°°
me:°
that which°
thou puttest°°
on°
me will I bear.°°
And the king°
of Assyria°
appointed°°
unto°
Hezekiah°
king°
of Judah°
three°
hundred°
talents°
of silver°
and thirty°
talents°
of gold.° |
|
18:15
And Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house. |
|
18:15
And Hezekiah°
gave°°
[him]°
all°
the silver°
that was found°°
in the house°
of Yahweh,°
and in the treasures°
of the king's°
house.° |
|
18:16
At that time Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple, and [from] the pillars which Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} [had] overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians. |
|
18:16
At that°
time°
did Hezekiah°
cut off°°
[the gold from]°
the doors°
of the temple°
of Yahweh,°
and [from] the pillars°
which°
Hezekiah°
king°
of Judah°
had overlaid,°°
and gave°°
it to the king°
of Assyria.° |
|
18:17 ¶
And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Raphis and Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes} from Lachish{gr.Lachis} to king Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field. |
|
18:17 ¶
And the king°
of Assyria°
sent°°°
Tartan°
and Rabsaris°
and Rabshakeh°
from°
Lachish°
to°
king°
Hezekiah°
with a great°
host°
against Jerusalem.°
And they went up°°
and came°°
to Jerusalem.°
And when they were come up,°°
they came°°
and stood°°
by the conduit°
of the upper°
pool,°
which°
[is] in the highway°
of the fuller's°°
field.° |
|
18:18
And they cried to Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}: and there came to him Eliakim{gr.Heliakim} the son of Hilkiah{gr.Chelcias} the steward, and Shebna{gr.Somnas} the scribe, and Joash{gr.Joas} the son of Shaphat{gr.Saphat} the recorder. |
|
18:18
And when they had called°°
to°
the king,°
there came out°°
to°
them Eliakim°
the son°
of Hilkiah,°
which°
[was] over°
the household,°
and Shebna°
the scribe,°°
and Joah°
the son°
of Asaph°
the recorder.°° |
|
18:19
And Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes} said to them, Say now to Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians, What [is] this confidence wherein thou trustest? |
|
18:19
And Rabshakeh°
said°°
unto°
them, Speak°°
ye now°
to°
Hezekiah,°
Thus°
saith°°
the great°
king,°
the king°
of Assyria,°
What°
confidence°
[is] this°
wherein°
thou trustest?°° |
|
18:20
Thou hast said, (but [they are] mere words,) [I have] counsel and strength for war. Now then in whom dost thou trust, that thou hast revolted from me? |
|
18:20
Thou sayest,°°
(but°
[they are but] vain°
words,)°
[I have] counsel°
and strength°
for the war.°
Now°
on°
whom°
dost thou trust,°°
that°
thou rebellest°°
against me? |
|
18:21
See now, art thou trusting for thyself on this broken staff of reed, [even] upon Mizraim{gr.Egypt}? whosoever shall stay himself upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharaoh{gr.Pharao} king of Mizraim{gr.Egypt} to all that trust on him. |
|
18:21
Now,°
behold,°
thou trustest°°
upon°
the staff°
of this°
bruised°°
reed,°
[even] upon°
Egypt,°
on°
which°
if a man°
lean,°°
it will go°°
into his hand,°
and pierce°°
it: so°
[is] Pharaoh°
king°
of Egypt°
unto all°
that trust°°
on°
him. |
|
18:22
And whereas thou hast said to me, We trust on the Lord God: [is] not this he, whose high places and altars Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} has removed, and has said to Judah{gr.Juda} and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem? |
|
18:22
But if°
ye say°°
unto°
me, We trust°°
in°
Yahweh°
our Elohim:°
[is] not°
that he,°
whose°°
high places°
and whose altars°
Hezekiah°
hath taken away,°°
and hath said°°
to Judah°
and Jerusalem,°
Ye shall worship°°
before°
this°
altar°
in Jerusalem?° |
|
18:23
And now, I pray you, make and agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou shalt be able on thy part to set riders upon them. |
|
18:23
Now°
therefore, I pray thee,°
give pledges°°°
to°
my adon°
the king°
of Assyria,°
and I will deliver°°
thee two thousand°
horses,°
if°
thou be able°°
on thy part to set°°
riders°°
upon°
them. |
|
18:24
How then wilt thou turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my lord's servants? whereas thou trustest for thyself on Mizraim{gr.Egypt} for chariots and horsemen. |
|
18:24
How°
then wilt thou turn away°°°
the face°
of one°
captain°
of the least°
of my adon's°
servants,°
and put thy trust°°
on°
Egypt°
for chariots°
and for horsemen?° |
|
18:25
And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. |
|
18:25
Am I now°
come up°°
without°°
Yahweh°
against°
this°
place°
to destroy°°
it? Yahweh°
said°°
to°
me, Go up°°
against°
this°
land,°
and destroy°°
it. |
|
18:26
And Eliakim{gr.Heliakim} the son of Chelkias, and Shebna{gr.Somnas}, and Joash{gr.Joas}, said to Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes}, Speak now to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language: and why dost thou speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall? |
|
18:26
Then said°°
Eliakim°
the son°
of Hilkiah,°
and Shebna,°
and Joah,°
unto°
Rabshakeh,°
Speak,°°
I pray thee,°
to°
thy servants°
in the Syrian language;°
for°
we°
understand°°
[it]: and talk°°
not°
with°
us in the Jews' language°
in the ears°
of the people°
that°
[are] on°
the wall.° |
|
18:27
And Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes} said to them, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? [has he] not [sent me] to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you. |
|
18:27
But Rabshakeh°
said°°
unto°
them, Hath my adon°
sent°°
me to°
thy adon,°
and to°
thee, to speak°°°
these°
words?°
[hath he] not°
[sent me] to°
the men°°
which sit°°
on°
the wall,°
that they may eat°°°
their own dung,°°°
and drink°°°
their own piss°°°°
with°
you? |
|
18:28
And Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes} stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians: |
|
18:28
Then Rabshakeh°
stood°°
and cried°°
with a loud°
voice°
in the Jews' language,°
and spake,°°
saying,°°
Hear°°
the word°
of the great°
king,°
the king°
of Assyria:° |
|
18:29
thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand. |
|
18:29
Thus°
saith°°
the king,°
Let not°
Hezekiah°
deceive°°
you: for°
he shall not°
be able°°
to deliver°°
you out of his hand:°° |
|
18:30
And let not Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias} cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians: hearken not to Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}: |
|
18:30
Neither°
let Hezekiah°
make you trust°°°
in°
Yahweh,°
saying,°°
Yahweh°
will surely°°
deliver°°
us, and°
this°
city°
shall not°
be delivered°°
into the hand°
of the king°
of Assyria.° |
|
18:31
for thus says the king of the Assyrians, Gain my favour, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink [of the wine] of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig-tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern; |
|
18:31
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 [then] eat°°
ye every man°
of his own vine,°
and every one°
of his fig tree,°
and drink°°
ye every one°
the waters°
of his cistern:° |
|
18:32
until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey, and ye shall live and not die: and do not ye hearken to Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you. |
|
18:32
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,°
a land°
of oil°
olive°
and of honey,°
that ye may live,°°
and not°
die:°°
and hearken°°
not°
unto°
Hezekiah,°
when°
he persuadeth°°
you, saying,°°
Yahweh°
will deliver°°
us. |
|
18:33
Have the Gods of the nations at all delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians? |
|
18:33
Hath any°
of the elohim°
of the nations°
delivered°°
at all°°°
his land°
out of the hand°°
of the king°
of Assyria?° |
|
18:34
Where is the god of Haemath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Seppharvaim, Anah{gr.Ana}, and Aba? for have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? |
|
18:34
Where°
[are] the elohim°
of Hamath,°
and of Arpad?°
where°
[are] the elohim°
of Sepharvaim,°
Hena,°
and Ivah?°
have they delivered°°°
Samaria°
out of mine hand?°° |
|
18:35
Who [is there] among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? |
|
18:35
Who°
[are] they among all°
the elohim°
of the countries,°
that°
have delivered°°°
their country°
out of mine hand,°°
that°
Yahweh°
should deliver°°°
Jerusalem°
out of mine hand?°° |
|
18:36
But [the men] were silent, and answered him not a word: for [there was] a commandment of the king, saying, Ye shall not answer him. |
|
18:36
But the people°
held their peace,°°
and answered°°
him not°
a word:°
for°
the king's°
commandment°
was, saying,°°
Answer°°
him not.° |
|
18:37
And Eliakim{gr.Heliakim} the son of Hilkiah{gr.Chelcias}, the steward, and Shebna{gr.Somnas} the scribe, and Joash{gr.Joas} the son of Shaphat{gr.Saphat} the recorder came in to Hezekiah{gr.Ezekias}, having rent their garments; and they reported to him the words of Rabshakeh{gr.Rapsakes}. |
|
18:37
Then came°°
Eliakim°
the son°
of Hilkiah,°
which°
[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.° |
