New American Standard Bible (NASB)
2 Kings 18
32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey, that you may live and not die." But do not listen to Hezekiah when he misleads you, saying, "The Lord will deliver us."
33 Has any one of the gods of the nations delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena and Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
35 Who among all the gods of the lands have delivered their land from my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem from my hand?’"
36 But the people were silent and answered him not a word, for the king’s commandment was, "Do not answer him."
37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
2 Kings 19
1 And when King Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth and entered the house of the Lord.
2 Then he sent Eliakim who was over the household with Shebna the scribe and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 They said to him, "Thus says Hezekiah, ’This day is a day of distress, rebuke, and rejection; for children have come to birth and there is no strength to deliver.
4 Perhaps the Lord your God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to reproach the living God, and will rebuke the words which the Lord your God has heard. Therefore, offer a prayer for the remnant that is left.’"
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
