LEB(i)
13 Then* Rabshakeh stood and called in a great voice in Judean and said, "Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
14 Thus says the king: 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you!
15 And do not let Hezekiah make you rely on Yahweh, saying, "Surely Yahweh will deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria!"
16 You must not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria: "Make a blessing* with me, and come out to me, and each one will eat from his vine and from his fig tree and drink water from* his cistern,
17 until ⌊I come⌋* and take you to a land like your land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards,
18 lest Hezekiah mislead you, saying, 'Yahweh will save us!' Did the gods of the nations each save his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Indeed, have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
20 Who are there among all the gods of these countries who have saved their land from my hand, that Yahweh should save Jerusalem from my hand?" '"
21 But* they were silent and did not answer him a word, for the command of the king was, "You must not answer him."
