列王紀下 19
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
希西家王派人問以賽亞(A)
19 希西家王聽見了，就撕裂衣服，披上麻布，進了耶和華的殿。 2 他差遣以利亞敬宮廷總管和舍伯那書記，並祭司中年長的，都披上麻布，到亞摩斯的兒子以賽亞先知那裏去。 3 他們對他說：「希西家如此說：『今日是急難、懲罰、凌辱的日子，就如嬰孩快要出生，卻沒有力氣生產。 4 或許耶和華—你的 神聽見亞述將軍一切的話，就是他主人亞述王差他來辱罵永生 神的話，耶和華—你的 神就斥責所聽見的這些話。求你為倖存的餘民揚聲禱告。』」 5 希西家王的臣僕來到以賽亞那裏的時候， 6 以賽亞對他們說：「要對你們的主人這樣說，耶和華如此說：『你聽見亞述王的僕人褻瀆我的話，不要懼怕。 7 看哪，我必驚動他的心[a]，他要聽見風聲就歸回本地，在那裏我必使他倒在刀下。』」
亞述王再度威脅(B)
8 亞述將軍聽見亞述王已拔營離開拉吉，就啟程返回，正遇見亞述王去攻打立拿。 9 亞述王聽見有人談論古實王特哈加說：「看哪，他出來要與你爭戰。」於是亞述王又差使者去見希西家，說： 10 「你們要對猶大王希西家如此說：『不要聽你所倚靠的 神欺哄你說：耶路撒冷必不交在亞述王的手中。 11 看哪，你總聽說亞述諸王向列國所行的是盡行滅絕，難道你能倖免嗎？ 12 我祖先所毀滅的，就是歌散、哈蘭、利色和提‧拉撒的伊甸人；這些國的神明何曾拯救他們呢？ 13 哈馬的王，亞珥拔的王，西法瓦音城的王，希拿和以瓦的王，都在哪裏呢？』」
14 希西家從使者手裏接過書信，讀完了，就上耶和華的殿，在耶和華面前展開書信。 15 希西家向耶和華禱告說：「坐在基路伯之上耶和華—以色列的 神啊，你，惟有你是地上萬國的 神，你創造了天和地。 16 耶和華啊，求你側耳而聽；耶和華啊，求你睜眼而看，聽西拿基立差遣使者辱罵永生 神的話。 17 耶和華啊，亞述諸王果然使列國和列國之地變為荒蕪， 18 將列國的神像扔在火裏，因為它們不是 神，是人手所造的，是木頭、石頭，所以被滅絕了。 19 耶和華—我們的 神啊，現在求你救我們脫離亞述王的手，使地上萬國都知道惟獨你—耶和華是 神！」
以賽亞給王的信息(C)
20 亞摩斯的兒子以賽亞差人去見希西家，說：「耶和華—以色列的 神如此說：你因亞述王西拿基立的事向我祈求，我已聽見了。 21 耶和華論他這樣說：
22 『你辱罵誰，褻瀆誰，
揚起聲來，高舉眼目攻擊誰呢？
你攻擊的是以色列的聖者。
23 你藉你的使者辱罵主說：
我率領許多戰車登上高山，
到黎巴嫩的頂端；
我要砍伐其中高大的香柏樹
和上好的松樹；
我必進到極遙遠的住所，
進入最茂盛的森林裏。
24 我已經在外邦挖井喝水；
我必用腳掌踏乾埃及一切的河流。
25 『你豈沒有聽見
我早先所定、古時所立、現今實現的事嗎？
就是讓你去毀壞堅固的城鎮，使它們變為廢墟；
26 城裏的居民力量微小，
他們驚惶羞愧；
像野草，像青菜，
如房頂上的草，
又如未長成而枯乾的禾稼。
27 『你坐下，你出去，你進來，
你向我發烈怒，我都知道。
28 因你向我發烈怒，
你的狂傲上達我耳中，
我要用鈎子鈎住你的鼻子，
將嚼環放在你口裏，
使你從原路轉回去。』
29 「這是給你的預兆：你們今年要吃野生的，明年也要吃自長的；後年，你們就要耕種收割，栽葡萄園，吃其中的果子。 30 猶大家所逃脫剩餘的，仍要往下扎根，向上結果。 31 必有剩餘的民從耶路撒冷而出，有逃脫的人從錫安山而來。萬軍之耶和華的熱心必成就這事。
32 「所以耶和華論亞述王如此說：他必不得來到這城，也不在這裏射箭，不得拿盾牌到城前，也不建土堆攻城。 33 他從哪條路來，必從那條路回去，必不得來到這城。這是耶和華說的。 34 因我為自己的緣故，又為我僕人大衛的緣故，必保護拯救這城。」
35 當夜，耶和華的使者出去，在亞述營中殺了十八萬五千人。清早有人起來，看哪，都是死屍。 36 亞述王西拿基立就拔營回去，住在尼尼微。 37 一日，他在他的神明尼斯洛廟裏叩拜，他兒子亞得米勒和沙利色用刀殺了他，然後逃到亞拉臘地；他兒子以撒‧哈頓接續他作王。
2 Kings 19
King James Version
19 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
2 And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 It may be the Lord thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
9 And when he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, Behold, he is come out to fight against thee: he sent messengers again unto Hezekiah, saying,
10 Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God in whom thou trustest deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou be delivered?
12 Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my fathers have destroyed; as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which were in Thelasar?
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?
14 And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord.
15 And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord, and said, O Lord God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.
16 Lord, bow down thine ear, and hear: open, Lord, thine eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent him to reproach the living God.
17 Of a truth, Lord, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,
18 And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
19 Now therefore, O Lord our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord God, even thou only.
20 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.
21 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
22 Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.
23 By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.
24 I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.
25 Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.
26 Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the house tops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.
27 But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
28 Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
29 And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits thereof.
30 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
31 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall do this.
32 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
33 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the Lord.
34 For I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the Lord went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
36 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
37 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
