12:018:036 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: 
           for the king’s commandment was, saying, Answer him not.

12:018:037 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the
           household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph
           the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told
           him the words of Rabshakeh.

12:019:001 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.

12:019:002 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.

12:019:003 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.

12:019:004 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.

12:019:005 So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

12:019:006 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.

12:019:007 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.

12:019:008 So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring
           against Libnah:  for he had heard that he was departed from
           Lachish.

12:019:009 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,

12:019:010 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.

12:019:011 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to
           all lands, by destroying them utterly:  and shalt thou be
           delivered?

12:019:012 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?
