Isaiah 37:1-7

1And it cameH935 to pass, when kingH4428 HezekiahH2396 heardH8085 it, that he rent his clothesH899, and coveredH3680 himself with sackclothH8242, and wentH935 into the houseH1004 of Jehovah. 2And he sentH7971 EliakimH471, who was over the householdH1004, and ShebnaH7644 the scribeH5608, and the eldersH2205 of the priestsH3548, coveredH3680 with sackclothH8242, unto IsaiahH3470 the prophetH5030 the sonH1121 of AmozH531. 3And they saidH559 unto him, ThusH3541 saith HezekiahH2396, This dayH3117 is a dayH3117 of troubleH6869, and of rebukeH8433, and of contumely; for the children are comeH935 to the birthH3205, and there is not strengthH3581 to bringH935 forthH3205. 4It may be Jehovah thy GodH430 will hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of Rabshakeh, whom the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 his masterH113 hath sentH7971 to defyH2778 the living GodH430, and will rebukeH3198 the wordsH1697 which Jehovah thy GodH430 hath heardH8085: wherefore liftH5375 up thy prayerH8605 for the remnantH7611 that is left.

5So the servantsH5650 of kingH4428 HezekiahH2396 cameH935 to IsaiahH3470. 6And IsaiahH3470 saidH559 unto them, ThusH3541 shall ye sayH559 to your masterH113, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, Be not afraidH3372 of the wordsH1697 that thou hast heardH8085, wherewith the servantsH5288 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 have blasphemed me. 7Behold, I will putH5414 a spiritH7307 in him, and he shall hearH8085 tidings, and shall returnH7725 unto his own landH776; and I will cause him to fallH5307 by the swordH2719 in his own landH776.
