KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 18:3 And he did
that which was right
in the sight
of the LORD
, according to all
that David
his father
did
.
KJVP KI2 18:4 He removed
the high
places, and brake
the images
, and cut
down the groves
, and brake
in pieces the brazen
serpent
that Moses
had made
: for unto those
days
the children
of Israel
did burn
incense
to it: and he called
it Nehushtan
.
KJVP KI2 18:5 He trusted
in the LORD
God
of Israel
; so that after
him was none
like
him among all
the kings
of Judah
, nor any that were before
him.
KJVP KI2 18:6 For he clave
to the LORD
, and departed
not from following
him, but kept
his commandments
, which
the LORD
commanded
Moses
.
KJVP KI2 18:7 And the LORD
was with him; and he prospered
whithersoever
-
he went
forth
: and he rebelled
against the king
of Assyria
, and served
not.
KJVP KI2 18:8 He smote
the Philistines
, even unto Gaza
, and the borders
thereof, from the tower
of the watchmen
to the fenced
city
.
KJVP KI2 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.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 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
:
KJVP KI2 18:12 Because
-
they obeyed
not the voice
of the LORD
their God
, but transgressed
his covenant
, and all
that Moses
the servant
of the LORD
commanded
, and would not hear
them, nor
do
them.
KJVP KI2 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.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 18:15 And Hezekiah
gave
him all
the silver
that was found
in the house
of the LORD
, and in the treasures
of the king?s
house
.
KJVP KI2 18:16 At that time
did Hezekiah
cut
off the gold from the doors
of the temple
of the LORD
, and from the pillars
which
Hezekiah
king
of Judah
had overlaid
, and gave
it to the king
of Assyria
.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 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
?
KJVP KI2 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
me?
KJVP KI2 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.
KJVP KI2 18:22 But if
ye say
unto me, We trust
in the LORD
our God
: 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
?
KJVP KI2 18:23 Now
therefore, I pray
thee, give pledges
to my Lord
the king
of Assyria
, and I will deliver
thee two thousand
horses
, if
thou be able
on thy part to set
riders
them.
KJVP KI2 18:24 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
?
KJVP KI2 18:25 Am I now
come
up without
the LORD
against
this
place
to destroy
it? The LORD
said
to me, Go
up against
this
land
, and destroy
it.
KJVP KI2 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
.
KJVP KI2 18:27 But Rabshakeh
said
unto them, Hath my master
sent
me to thy master
, 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
you?
KJVP KI2 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
:
KJVP KI2 18:29 Thus
saith
the king
, Let not Hezekiah
deceive
you: for he shall not be able
to deliver
you out of his hand
:
KJVP KI2 18:30 Neither
let Hezekiah
make you trust
in the LORD
, saying
, The LORD
will surely deliver
us, and this
city
shall not be delivered
into the hand
of the king
of Assyria
.
KJVP KI2 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
:
KJVP KI2 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
, The LORD
will deliver
us.
KJVP KI2 18:33 Hath any
of the gods
of the nations
delivered
at all his land
out of the hand
of the king
of Assyria
?
KJVP KI2 18:34 Where
are the gods
of Hamath
, and of Arpad
? where
are the gods
of Sepharvaim
, Hena
, and Ivah
? have they delivered
Samaria
out of mine hand
?
KJVP KI2 18:35 Who
are they among all
the gods
of the countries
, that have delivered
their country
out of mine hand
, that the LORD
should deliver
Jerusalem
out of mine hand
?
KJVP KI2 18:36 But the people
held
their peace
, and answered
him not a word
: for the king?s
commandment
was, saying
, Answer
not.
KJVP KI2 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
.
