希西家王十四年、亞述王西拿基立、上來攻擊猶大的一切堅固城、將城攻取。

In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah's reign, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all the fortified cities of Judah and captured them.

亞述王從拉吉差遣拉伯沙基、率領大軍、往耶路撒冷到希西家王那裡去．他就站在上池的水溝旁、在漂布地的大路上。

Then the king of Assyria sent his field commander with a large army from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. When the commander stopped at the aqueduct of the Upper Pool, on the road to the Washerman's Field,

於是希勒家的兒子家宰以利亞敬、並書記舍伯那、和亞薩的兒子史官約亞、出來見拉伯沙基。

Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebna the secretary, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder went out to him.

拉伯沙基對他們說、你們去告訴希西家說、亞述大王如此說、你所倚靠的有甚麼可仗賴的呢。

The field commander said to them, "Tell Hezekiah, "'This is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: On what are you basing this confidence of yours?

你說、有打仗的計謀和能力．我看不過是虛話、你到底倚靠誰、纔背叛我呢。

You say you have strategy and military strength--but you speak only empty words. On whom are you depending, that you rebel against me?

看哪、你所倚靠的埃及、是那壓傷的葦杖、人若靠這杖、就必刺透他的手．埃及王法老向一切倚靠他的人、也是這樣。

Look now, you are depending on Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff, which pierces a man's hand and wounds him if he leans on it! Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who depend on him.

你若對我說、我們倚靠耶和華我們的　神．希西家豈不是將　神的邱壇、和祭壇廢去、且對猶大和耶路撒冷的人說、你們當在這壇前敬拜麼。

And if you say to me, "We are depending on the LORD our God"--isn't he the one whose high places and altars Hezekiah removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, "You must worship before this altar"?

現在你把當頭給我主亞述王、我給你二千匹馬、看你這一面騎馬的人彀不彀。

"'Come now, make a bargain with my master, the king of Assyria: I will give you two thousand horses--if you can put riders on them!

若不然、怎能打敗我主臣僕中最小的軍長呢．你竟倚靠埃及的戰車馬兵麼。

How then can you repulse one officer of the least of my master's officials, even though you are depending on Egypt for chariots and horsemen?

現在我上來攻擊毀滅這地、豈沒有耶和華的意思麼．耶和華吩咐我說、你上去攻擊毀滅這地罷。

Furthermore, have I come to attack and destroy this land without the LORD? The LORD himself told me to march against this country and destroy it.'"

以利亞敬、舍伯那、約亞、對拉伯沙基說、求你用亞蘭言語和僕人說話、因為我們懂得、不要用猶大言語和我們說話達到城上百姓的耳中。

Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah said to the field commander, "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, since we understand it. Don't speak to us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall."

拉伯沙基說、我主差遣我來、豈是單對你和你的主說這些話麼、不也是對這些坐在城上、要與你們一同喫自己糞喝自己尿的人說麼。

But the commander replied, "Was it only to your master and you that my master sent me to say these things, and not to the men sitting on the wall--who, like you, will have to eat their own filth and drink their own urine?"

於是拉伯沙基站著、用猶大言語、大聲喊著說、你們當聽亞述大王的話。

Then the commander stood and called out in Hebrew, "Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!

王如此說、你們不要被希西家欺哄了、因他不能拯救你們．

This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you. He cannot deliver you!

也不要聽希西家使你們倚靠耶和華說、耶和華必要拯救我們、這城必不交在亞述王的手中。

Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, 'The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.'

不要聽希西家的話、因亞述王如此說、你們要與我和好、出來投降我、各人就可以喫自己葡萄樹和無花果樹的果子、喝自己井裡的水．

"Do not listen to Hezekiah. This is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and fig tree and drink water from his own cistern,

等我來領你們到一個地方、與你們本地一樣、就是有五穀和新酒之地、有糧食和葡萄園之地。

until I come and take you to a land like your own--a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

你們要謹防、恐怕希西家勸導你們說、耶和華必拯救我們．列國的神有那一個救他本國脫離亞述王的手呢。

"Do not let Hezekiah mislead you when he says, 'The LORD will deliver us.' Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?

哈馬和亞珥拔的神在那裡呢、西法瓦音的神在那裡呢、他們曾救撒瑪利亞脫離我的手麼。

Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they rescued Samaria from my hand?

這些國的神、有誰曾救自己的國脫離我的手呢．難道耶和華能救耶路撒冷脫離我的手麼。

Who of all the gods of these countries has been able to save his land from me? How then can the LORD deliver Jerusalem from my hand?"

百姓靜默不言、並不回答一句、因為王曾吩咐說、不要回答他。

But the people remained silent and said nothing in reply, because the king had commanded, "Do not answer him."

當下希勒家的兒子家宰以利亞敬和書記舍伯那、並亞薩的兒子史官約亞、都撕裂衣服、來到希西家那裡、將拉伯沙基的話告訴了他。

Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebna the secretary, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder went to Hezekiah, with their clothes torn, and told him what the field commander had said.
