19 And it happened when King Hezekiah heard, and he tore his clothes, and he covered himself with sackcloth, and he went into the house of Yahweh. 2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe and the elders of the priests covering themselves with sackcloth to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz. 3 And they said to him, “Thus says Hezekiah, ‘This day is a day of distress and rebuke and disgrace, for sons have come up to the birth canal, but there is no strength for birth. 4 Perhaps Yahweh your God will hear all the words of the chief commander, who the king of Assyria his lord sent him to defy the living God, and he will reproach the words that Yahweh your God has heard. And you will lift up a prayer on behalf of the remnant that is found.’” 5 And the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah, 6 and Isaiah said to them, “Thus you will say to your lord: ‘Thus says Yahweh, “Do not be afraid from the face of the words that you have heard, with which the young men of the king of Assyria insulted me. 7 Look at me—giving a spirit on him, and he will hear a report, and he will return to his land, and I will make him fall by the sword in his land.”’” 8 And the chief commander returned, and he found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah, for he heard that he pulled out from from Lachish. 9 And he heard concerning Tirhakah the king of Cush, saying, “Look—he went out to fight with you.” And he returned, and he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, 10 “Thus you will say to Hezekiah the king of Judah, saying ‘Do not let your God whom you are trusting in him deceive you, saying, “Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” 11 Look—you yourself have heard that which the kings of Assyria did to all the lands by destroying them. But you yourself will be delivered? 12 Did the gods of the nations that my fathers destroyed rescue them: Gozan or Haran or Rezeph or the sons of Eden who were in Tel Assar? 13 Where is the king of Hamath or the king of Arpad or the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, or Ivvah?’”
14 And Hezekiah took the letters from the hand of the messengers, and he read them. And he went up to the house of Yahweh, and Hezekiah spread it out to the face of Yahweh. 15 And Hezekiah prayed to the face of Yahweh, and he said, “Yahweh the God of Israel, dwelling above the cherubim, you are he—the God, you alone, over all the kingdoms of the earth. You yourself made the heavens and the earth. 16 Stretch out your ear, Yahweh, and hear; open your eyes, Yahweh, and see. And hear the words of Sennacherib, that he sent it to mock the living God. 17 Truly, Yahweh, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their land. 18 And they have given their gods into the fire, for they are not gods, but rather the work of the hands of humanity, wood and stone, and they have destroyed them. 19 But now Yahweh our God, save us, please, from his hand, and all the kingdoms of the earth will know that you, Yahweh, are God, you alone.”
20 And Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says Yahweh the God of Israel: ‘Because you prayed to me concerning Sennacherib the king of Assyria, I have listened. 21 This is the word that Yahweh has spoken about him:
“She despises you; she derides you,
a maiden, the daughter of Zion.
She shakes a head after you,
the daughter of Jerusalem.
22 Whom have you mocked and have you taunted?
And against whom have you raised a voice
and have you lifted your eyes upward?
Against the Holy One of Israel!
23 By the hand of your messengers
you mocked my Lord,
and you said,
‘With the multitude of my chariots
I myself went up to the heights of the mountains,
the highest elevations of Lebanon.
And I cut down the heights of its cedars,
the choicest of its cypress trees,
so that I may enter the lodging place of its end,
the forest of its orchard.
24 I myself dug,
and I drank foreign waters.
And I dried up,
with the sole of my footstep,
all the rivers of Egypt.’
25 Did you not hear
from long ago, I put it;
from days of old, and I planned it?
Now I have brought it, and it will happen
by laying waste into heaps of ruins
fortified cities.
26 And their inhabitants are short of hand—
they are dismayed, and they are ashamed.
They are plants of the field
or a shoot of grass,
grass of roofs,
scorching heat to the face of standing grain.
27 But I know your sitting down
and your going out
and your coming in
and your raging against me.
28 Because of your raging against me,
and your arrogance has gone up in my ears,
and I will put my hook in your nose,
and my bit in your lips.
And I will turn you back
on the path that you came on it.”
29 And this is the sign for you:
the first year, eating what grows of itself,
and in the second year, self-seeded plant.
But in the third year, sow and harvest
and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
30 And the remaining survivors of the house of Judah
will again be a root downward,
and it will make fruit upward.
31 For from Jerusalem a remnant will come out
and survivors from Mount Zion.
The zeal of Yahweh will do this.
32 Therefore, thus says Yahweh to the king of Assyria:“He will not enter into this city,
nor will he shoot an arrow there,
nor will he meet it with a shield,
nor will he pour out a siege ramp against it.
33 By the way which he came on it,
he will return,
and he will not enter into this city,”
declares Yahweh. 34 “For I will defend over this city to save it,
for my sake and for the sake of David, my servant.”’”
35 And it happened during that night, and the angel of Yahweh went out, and he struck in the camp of Assyria 185, 000 men. And they got up early in the morning, and look—all of them were dead corpses. 36 And he pulled out, and he went, and Sennacherib the king of Assyria returned, and he stayed in Nineveh. 37 And it happened, he was prostrating himself in the house of Nisrok his god, and Adrammelek and Sharezer struck him with the sword, and they themselves escaped to the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son became king in his place.
