RF ISA 36:1 A NARRATIVE ODE 55.
The History of Senacharib's Invasion and Overthrow.
It was in the fourteenth year of Hezekiah that Senakerib, King of Ashur, assailed all fortified Cities of Judah and captured them.
RF ISA 36:2 Then the King of Ashur sent Rabshakah with a powerful army from Lakish to Jerusalem against King Hezekiah, and he stationed himself on the Reservoir Hill, at the ascent of the
RF ISA 36:3 where Eliakim-ben Hilkiah the Prime Minister, and Shebna the Secretary, and Joakhben-Asaf the Chancellor, met him.
RF ISA 36:4 Then Rabshakah said to them:— "I wish you to report to Hezekiah what the Great King, the King of Ashur asks:—"What is the support upon which you rely?
RF ISA 36:5 You tell me,—but they are only words of the lips,—I have genius and power for war.—Now on whom do you trust? that you have rushed on me?
RF ISA 36:6 "You are trusting upon the support of that shattered reed Mitzer? When a man leans on it, it goes into his hand and pierces it.—Pharaoh King of Mitzer is that, to whoever trust upon him!"
RF ISA 36:7 "But if you say to me, We trust upon Our EVER-LIVING GOD!—Is not that He Whose Columns and Altars Hezekiah has thrown down?—and said to Judah and Jerusalem, 'You must worship at this Altar?'
RF ISA 36:8 "But, however, come over to my Master the King of Ashur, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put riders on them for yourself.—
RF ISA 36:9 So you cannot turn back The face of one of the least of my Master's Servants;—then how can you trust upon Mitzer for chariots and horsemen?
RF ISA 36:10 "And, now, have I come up against this country to seize it without the LORD?—The LORD said to me, Go up and seize that land!"
RF ISA 36:11 Then Eliakim, and Shebna, and Joakh said to Rabshakah, "We beg you to speak to your servants in Aramic, for we understand it, and do not speak in Judish in the hearing of all the men on the Wall."
RF ISA 36:12 But Rabshakah replied "Has my Master sent me to your Master, or to you, to say these things?—Was it not to the men standing upon the Walls, who eat their own dung and drink their own piss with you?
RF ISA 36:13 Rabshakah then stood up and shouted with a loud voice in Judish and exclaimed:—
RF ISA 36:14 "Listen to the message of the Great King, the King of Ashur!
RF ISA 36:15 "Let not Hezekiah deceive you;for he is not able to defend you. And do not you trust with Hezekiah on the LORD, when he says; The LORD will deliver us! The LORD will not give this City into the hand of the King of Ashur.'—
RF ISA 36:16 Listen not to Hezekiah!—for thus says the King of Ashur, Make a Peace with me, and meet me, and let every man eat his own grapes, and every man his own figs, and every one drink from his own well,
RF ISA 36:17 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land;— a land of corn and beer; a land of bread and vineyards;—
RF ISA 36:18 for Hezekiah deceives you in saying,—'The LORD will deliver us!' "Which of the gods of the Nations has delivered its land from the hand of the King of Ashur?—
RF ISA 36:19 Where are the gods of Kharnath?—of Arfad?—of the Sefarvaim?—And who delivered Shomeron out of my hand?—
RF ISA 36:20 Who of all the gods of those Countries has delivered his land from my hand?—that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem from my hand?"
RF ISA 36:21 But they were silent, for the King's orders were "answer not a word to his speech."
RF ISA 36:22 But Eliakim-ben-Hilkiah, who was Prime Minister, and Shebna the Secretary, and Joakh-ben-Asaf the Chancellor, returned to Hezekiah, with their clothes torn, and reported to him the speech of Rabshakah.
