Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, will say, and Shebna, and Joah, to Rabshakeh, Speak now to thy servants in Syriac; for we hear: and thou shalt not speak with us in Judaic in the ears of the people who are upon the wall And Rabshakeh will say to them, To thy lord and to thee did my lord send me to speak these words? is it not to the men sitting upon the wall to eat their dung and to drink their piss with you? And Rabshakeh will stand and call with a great voice in Judaic, and speak and say, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assur: Thus said the king, Hezekiah shall not be lifted up to you: for he shall not be able to deliver you from my hand: And Hezekiah shall cause you to trust to Jehovah, saying, Delivering, Jehovah will deliver us, and this same city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assur. Ye shall not hear to Hezekiah: for thus said the king of Assur, Make me a gift, and come forth to me, and eat ye a man his vine and a man his fig tree, and drink ye a man water of his well, Till my coming and I took you to a land as your land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-oil and honey; and live ye, and ye shall not die: and ye shall not hear to Hezekiah, for he will seduce you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. Delivering, did the gods of the nations deliver each his hand out of the hand of the king of Assur? Where the gods of Hamath and Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? for did they deliver Shomemn out of my hand? Who of all the gods of the lands who delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah shall deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? And the people were silent and answered him not a word: for it was the command of the king, saying, Ye shall not answer. And there came Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph reminding, to Hezekiah, their garments rent; and they will announce to him the words of Rabshakeh.

My lord didst ask thy servants, saying, Is there a father to you, or a brother? And we said to my lord, There is a father to us, an old man, and a child of old age, a little one: and his brother died, and he will be left alone to his mother; and his father loved him. And thou wilt say to thy servants, Bring him down to me, and I shall set mine eyes upon him. And we shall say to my lord, The youth will not be able to leave his. father; and did he leave his father, he died. And thou wilt say to thy servants, If your little brother shall not come down with you, ye shall not add to see my face.

And thy servant my father will say to us, Ye knew that my wife brought forth to me two. And the one went forth from me and it was said, Surely he was torn in pieces, he was torn in pieces; and I saw him not till now. And took ye this also from my face, and harm befell him, and ye brought down my old age with evil to hades. And now if I came to thy servant my father, and the youth not with us, for his soul is bound upon his soul, And it was when he having seen that the youth is not, and he will die: and thy servants brought down the old age of thy servant our father in grief to hades. For thy servant became surety for the youth with my father, saying, If I shall not bring him to thee, I sinned against my father all the days. At this time thy servant shall now remain for the youth, a servant to my lord; and the youth shall go up with his brethren. For how shall I go up to my father and the youth not with me? lest I shall look upon the evil which shall find my father.
