3 for at sige til ham: "Ezekias lader sige: En Nødens, Tugtelsens og Forsmædelsens Dag er denne Dag, thi Barnet er ved at fødes, men der er ikke Kraft til at bringe det til Verden!

4 Dog vil HERREN din Gud måske høre, hvad Rabsjake har sagt, han, som er sendt af sin Herre, Assyrerkongen, for at håne den levende Gud, og måske vil han straffe ham for de Ord, som HERREN din Gud har hørt gå derfor i Forbøn for den Rest, der endnu er tilbage!"
4 Perhaps the Lord your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to reproach the living God, and will rebuke the words which the Lord your God has heard. Therefore, offer a prayer for the remnant that is left.’”
6 sagde han til dem: "Således skal I svare eders Herre: Så siger HERREN: Frygt ikke for de Ord, du har hørt, som Assyrerkongens Trælle har hånet mig med!

7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him so that he will hear a rumor and return to his own land. And I will make him fall by the sword in his own land.”’”
10 "Således skal I sige til Kong Ezekias af Juda: Lad ikke din Gud, som du slår din Lid til, vildlede dig med at sige, at Jerusalem ikke skal gives i Assyrerkongens Hånd!

16 "Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud, du, som troner over Keruberne, du alene er Gud over alle Jordens Riger; du har gjort Himmelen og Jorden!
16 “O Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, who is enthroned above the cherubim, You are the God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
17 Bøj nu dit Øre, HERRE, og lyt, åbn dine Øjne, HERRE, og se! Læg Mærke til alle de Ord, Sankerib har sendt hid for at spotte den levende Gud!
17 Incline Your ear, O Lord, and hear; open Your eyes, O Lord, and see; and listen to all the words of Sennacherib, who sent them to reproach the living God.
21 Så sendte Esajas, Amoz's Søn, Bud til Ezekias og lod sige: "Så siger HERREN, Israels Gud: Din Bøn angående Assyrerkongen Sankerib har jeg hørt!"
21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent word to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Because you have prayed to Me about Sennacherib king of Assyria,
22 Således lyder det Ord, HERREN talede imod ham: Hun håner, hun spotter dig, Jomfruen, Zions Datter, Jerusalems Datter ryster på Hovedet ad dig!
22 this is the word that the Lord has spoken against him:“She has despised you and mocked you,The virgin daughter of Zion;She has shaken her head behind you,The daughter of Jerusalem!
24 Ved dine Trælle håned du HERREN og sagde: "Med mine talløse Vogne besteg jeg Bjergenes Højder, Libanons afsides Egne; jeg fælded dets Cedres Højskov, dets ædle Cypresser, trængte frem til dets øverste Raststed, dets Havers Skove.
24 “Through your servants you have reproached the Lord,And you have said, ‘With my many chariots I came up to the heights of the mountains,To the remotest parts of Lebanon;And I cut down its tall cedars and its choice cypresses.And I will go to its highest peak, its thickest forest.
26 Har du ej hørt det? For længst kom det op i min Tanke, jeg lagde det fordum til Rette, nu lod jeg det ske, og du Gjorde murstærke Byer til øde Stenhobe
26 “Have you not heard?Long ago I did it,From ancient times I planned it.Now I have brought it to pass,That you should turn fortified cities into ruinous heaps.
27 mens Folkene grebes i Afmagt af Skræk og Skam, blev som Græsset på Marken, det spirende Grønne, som Græs på Tage, som Mark for Østenvinden.

29 Fordi du raser imod mig, din Trods bar nået mit Øre, lægger jeg Ring i din Næse og Bidsel i Munden og fører dig bort ad Vejen, du kom!
