18 And_he/it _was in_year three of_Hōshēˊa the _son _of ʼĒlāh the _king _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) Ḩizqiy^yāh the _son _of ʼĀḩāz the _king _of Yəhūdāh/(Judah) he _became _king.

3 And_he/it _made the_right in/on_both _eyes _of YHWH according_to _all that Dāvid his/its_father he _had _done.

4 He he _removed DOM the _high_places and_he _broke DOM the _sacred_pillars and_he _cut _down DOM the _ʼAshērāh_pole and_he _crushed _to _pieces the _snake _of (the)_bronze which Mosheh he _had _made if/because until the_days (the)_those the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) they _were making _smoke to_him/it and_he/it _called to_him/it Nehushtan.

5 In_YHWH the _god _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) he _trusted and_after_him not anyone _was like_him among_all _of the _kings _of Yəhūdāh and_which they _were before_him.

6 And_he _clung to_YHWH not he _turned _aside from_after_him and_he _kept commands _of_his which YHWH he _had _commanded DOM Mosheh.

7 And_it _was YHWH with_him/it in_all that he _went _out he _prospered and_he _rebelled against_the _king _of ʼAshshūr and_not he_served _him.

8 He he _defeated DOM the_Pəlishtiy to ˊAzzāh and_DOM territories _of_its from_a _tower _of watchmen unto a _city _of fortification.

9 And_he/it _was in_year (the)_fourth to/for_the _king Ḩizqiy^yāh it was_the_year (the)_seventh of_Hōshēˊa the _son _of ʼĒlāh the _king _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) Shalmanʼeşer the _king _of ʼAshshūr he _came _up on Shomrōn and_he/it _laid _siege on_it.

11 And_ the _king _of ʼAshshūr _he _took _into _exile DOM Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to_ʼAshshūr and_he_led _them in_Ḩₐlaḩ and_on_the_Ḩāⱱōr the _river _of Gōzān and_the _cities _of Māday.

12 On that not they _had _listened to_the _voice _of YHWH god _of_their and_they _had _transgressed DOM covenant _of_his DOM all _of that Mosheh the _servant _of YHWH he _had _commanded and_not they _listened and_not they _did.

13 And_in_four- teen year to/for_the _king Ḩizqiy^yāh Şanḩērīⱱ the _king _of ʼAshshūr he _came _up on all _of the _cities _of Yəhūdāh/(Judah) (the)_fortified and_he_seized _them.

14 And_ Ḩizqiy^yāh the _king _of Yəhūdāh _he _sent to the _king _of ʼAshshūr to_Lākīsh to_say I _have _sinned turn _back from_on_me DOM that_which you _will _put on_me I _will _bear and_ the _king _of ʼAshshūr _he/it _assigned on Ḩizqiy^yāh the _king _of Yəhūdāh three hundred(s) talent[s]_of silver and_thirty talent[s]_of gold.

15 And_ Ḩizqiy^yāh _he/it _gave DOM all _of the_silver which_was_found the _house _of YHWH and_in_the _treasuries _of the _house _of the _king.

16 At_time (the)_that Ḩizqiy^yāh he _cut _off DOM the _doors _of the _temple _of YHWH and_DOM the_door-posts which Ḩizqiy^yāh the _king _of Yəhūdāh he _had _overlaid and_he_gave _them to_the _king _of ʼAshshūr.

17 And_ the _king _of ʼAshshūr _he _sent DOM the_commander _in _chief and_DOM the_Raⱱ-_of şārīş and_DOM the_Raⱱ-_of shaqeh from Lākīsh to the_king Ḩizqiy^yāh with_an _army _of massive Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) and_they _went _up and_they _came Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) and_they _went _up and_they _came and_they _stood at_the _conduit _of the _pool (the)_upper which is_on_the_highway _of the_field _of the_washer.

18 And_they _called _out to the_king and_he/it _went _out to_them ʼElyāqīm the _son _of Ḩilqiy^yāh who was_over the_house and_Sheⱱnāʼ the_secretary and_Yōʼāḩ/(Joah) the _son _of ʼĀşāf the_recorder.

19 And_he/it _said to_them the_Rab-_of shaqeh say please to Ḩizqiy^yāh thus the_king (the)_great the _king _of ʼAshshūr he _says what is_the_trust the_this which you _trust.

20 You _have _said only a _message _of lips is_a _plan and_strength for_war now on whom do _you _rely that/for/because/then/when you _have _rebelled against_me.

21 Now HERE you _rely (for)_yourself on the _staff _of (the)_reed (the)_crushed the_this on Miʦrayim/(Egypt) which anyone he _will _support _himself on/upon/above_him/it and_it _will _go in_palm _of_his and_it_will _pierce _it is_thus Parˊoh the _king _of Miʦrayim to/from_all/each/any/every those_who_rely on/upon/above_him/it.

22 And_because/when you(pl)_will _say to_me to YHWH god _of_our we _trust am_not is_he the_one_whom Ḩizqiy^yāh he _has _removed DOM places _of_his _high and_DOM altars _of_his and_he/it _said to_Yəhūdāh/(Judah) and_to_Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_altar the_this you(pl)_will _bow _down in_Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem).

23 And_now make _a _wager please with my_master with the _king _of ʼAshshūr and_let _me _give to/for_yourself(m) two _thousand horses if you _will _be _able to_put to/for_yourself(m) riders on_them.

24 And_how will _you _turn _back DOM the _face _of the _governor _of (of)_one of _the _servants _of my_master (the)_little and_you _have _been _relying to/for_yourself(m) on Miʦrayim for_chariotry and_for_horsemen.

25 Now (from)_without YHWH have _I _come _up on the_place the_this to_destroy_it YHWH he _said to_me go _up on the_earth/land (the)_this and_destroy_it.

26 And_ ʼElyāqīm the _son _of Ḩilqiy^yāh and_Sheⱱnāʼ and_Yōʼāḩ/(Joah) _he/it _said to the_Rab-_of shaqeh speak please to your_servants ʼArāmīt if/because we are_understanding and_do _not speak with_us Yəhūdī/(Judean) in_the _ears _of the _people which is_on the_wall.

27 And_he/it _said to the_Rab-_of shaqeh to master(s)_of_your and_to_you(ms) has_he _sent _me my_master to_speak DOM the_words/messages the_these not to the_men who_are_sitting on the_wall to_eat DOM[fn] mmm[fn] and_to_drink DOM mmm[fn][fn][fn] with_you(pl).

28 And_ the_Rab-_of shaqeh _he _stood and_he/it _called with_a _voice great Yəhūdī/(Judean) and_he/it _spoke and_he/it _said hear the _message _of the_king (the)_great the _king _of ʼAshshūr.

29 Thus the_king he _says not let _him _deceive to/for_you(pl) Ḩizqiy^yāh if/because not he _will _be _able to_deliver you(pl) from_hand _of_his.

30 And_not Ḩizqiy^yāh let _him _make _trust you(pl) to YHWH to_say certainly _(deliver) he_will _deliver _us YHWH and_not DOM the_city (the)_this it _will _be _given in_the _hand _of the _king _of ʼAshshūr.

31 Do _not listen to Ḩizqiy^yāh if/because thus the _king _of ʼAshshūr he _says make with_me a _blessing and_come _out to_me and_eat everyone _of vine _of_his _own and_everyone _of fig _tree _of_his _own and_drink everyone the _water _of his _own _cistern _of_his.

32 Until come_I and_I _will _take you(pl) to a _land like_your _own _of_land a _land _of grain and_new _wine a _land _of bread and_vineyards a _land _of olive _tree _of fresh _oil and_honey and_live and_not you(pl)_will _die and_do _not listen to Ḩizqiy^yāh if/because he _misleads you(pl) to_say YHWH he_will _deliver _us.

33 Ever_(deliver) the _gods _of the_nations have _they _delivered anyone DOM land _of_its from_the _hand _of the _king _of ʼAshshūr.

34 Where were_the _gods _of Ḩₐmāt and_ʼArpād where were_the _gods _of Şəfarvayim Hēnaˊ and_ˊIvvāh that/for/because/then/when they _have _delivered DOM Shomrōn from_hand _of_my.

35 Who in_all the _gods _of the _lands are_those_which they _have _delivered DOM land _of_their from_hand _of_my that/for/because/then/when YHWH he _will _deliver DOM Yərūshālaim/(Jerusalem) from_hand _of_my.

36 And_ the_people _they _kept _silent and_not they _answered DOM_him/it anything if/because was_the _command _of the_king it to_say not you(pl)_must _answer _him.

37 And_ ʼElyāqīm the _son _of Ḩilqiy^yāh who was_over the_house and_Sheⱱnāʼ the_secretary and_Yōʼāḩ/(Joah) the _son _of ʼĀşāf the_recorder _he _went to Ḩizqiy^yāh torn _of clothes and_they _told to_him/it the _words/messages _of the_Rab-_of shaqeh.
