Es 37 (King James)

¹ 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, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto 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 of 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 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 is left.
⁵ So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
⁶ And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith 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 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 he heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He is come forth to make war with thee. And when he heard it, he sent messengers to 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 given 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 Telassar?
¹³ Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah?
¹⁴ And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.
¹⁵ And Hezekiah prayed unto the LORD, saying,
¹⁶ O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.
¹⁷ Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the living God.
¹⁸ Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations, and their countries,
¹⁹ 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.
²⁰ Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD, even thou only.
²¹ Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria:
²² This is the word which 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.
²³ 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.
²⁴ By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of his border, and the forest of his Carmel.
²⁵ I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.
²⁶ 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 defenced cities into ruinous heaps.
²⁷ 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 housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.
²⁸ But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
²⁹ Because thy rage against me, and thy tumult, is come up into mine ears, therefore will I 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.
³⁰ And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which springeth of the same: and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.
³¹ And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
³² 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.
³³ 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 shields, nor cast a bank against it.
³⁴ By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.
³⁵ For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
³⁶ Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
³⁷ So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
³⁸ 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.

Es 37 (Vulgate)

¹ Et factum est, cum audisset rex Ezechias, scidit vestimenta sua, et obvolutus est sacco, et intravit in domum Domini.
² Et misit Eliacim, qui erat super domum, et Sobnam scribam, et seniores de sacerdotibus, opertos saccis, ad Isaiam, filium Amos, prophetam,
³ et dixerunt ad eum : Hæc dicit Ezechias : Dies tribulationis, et correptionis, et blasphemiæ, dies hæc ; quia venerunt filii usque ad partum, et virtus non est pariendi.
⁴ Si quomodo audiat Dominus Deus tuus verba Rabsacis, quem misit rex Assyriorum dominus suus ad blasphemandum Deum viventem et exprobrandum sermonibus quos audivit Dominus Deus tuus : leva ergo orationem pro reliquiis quæ repertæ sunt.
⁵ Et venerunt servi regis Ezechiæ ad Isaiam.
⁶ Et dixit ad eos Isaias : Hæc dicetis domino vestro : Hæc dicit Dominus : Ne timeas a facie verborum quæ audisti, quibus blasphemaverunt pueri regis Assyriorum me.
⁷ Ecce ego dabo ei spiritum, et audiet nuntium, et revertetur ad terram suam, et corruere eum faciam gladio in terra sua.
⁸ Reversus est autem Rabsaces, et invenit regem Assyriorum præliantem adversus Lobnam : audierat enim quia profectus esset de Lachis.
⁹ Et audivit de Tharaca rege Æthiopiæ, dicentes : Egressus est ut pugnet contra te. Quod cum audisset, misit nuntios ad Ezechiam, dicens :
¹⁰ Hæc dicetis Ezechiæ regi Judæ, loquentes : Non te decipiat Deus tuus in quo tu confidis, dicens : Non dabitur Jerusalem in manu regis Assyriorum.
¹¹ Ecce tu audisti omnia quæ fecerunt reges Assyriorum omnibus terris, quas subverterunt : et tu poteris liberari ?
¹² Numquid eruerunt eos dii gentium quos subverterunt patres mei, Gozam, et Haram, et Reseph, et filios Eden qui erant in Thalassar ?
¹³ Ubi est rex Emath, et rex Arphad, et rex urbis Sepharvaim, Ana, et Ava ?
¹⁴ Et tulit Ezechias libros de manu nuntiorum, et legit eos, et ascendit in domum Domini, et expandit eos Ezechias coram Domino :
¹⁵ et oravit Ezechias ad Dominum, dicens :
¹⁶ Domine exercituum, Deus Israël, qui sedes super cherubim, tu es Deus solus omnium regnorum terræ : tu fecisti cælum et terram.
¹⁷ Inclina, Domine, aurem tuam, et audi ; aperi, Domine, oculos tuos, et vide : et audi omnia verba Sennacherib, quæ misit ad blasphemandum Deum viventem.
¹⁸ Vere enim, Domine, desertas fecerunt reges Assyriorum terras, et regiones earum,
¹⁹ et dederunt deos earum igni : non enim erant dii, sed opera manuum hominum, lignum et lapis, et comminuerunt eos.
²⁰ Et nunc, Domine Deus noster, salva nos de manu ejus, et cognoscant omnia regna terræ quia tu es Dominus solus.
²¹ Et misit Isaias, filius Amos, ad Ezechiam, dicens : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Pro quibus rogasti me de Sennacherib, rege Assyriorum,
²² hoc est verbum quod locutus est Dominus super eum : [Despexit te et subsannavit te, virgo filia Sion ; post te caput movit, filia Jerusalem.
²³ Cui exprobrasti ? et quem blasphemasti ? et super quem exaltasti vocem, et levasti altitudinem oculorum tuorum ? ad Sanctum Israël.
²⁴ In manu servorum tuorum exprobrasti Domino, et dixisti : In multitudine quadrigarum mearum ego ascendi altitudinem montium juga Libani ; et succidam excelsa cedrorum ejus, et electas abietes illius, et introibo altitudinem summitatis ejus, saltum Carmeli ejus.
²⁵ Ego fodi, et bibi aquam, et exsiccavi vestigio pedis mei omnes rivos aggerum.
²⁶ Numquid non audisti quæ olim fecerim ei ? Ex diebus antiquis ego plasmavi illud ; et nunc adduxi, et factum est in eradicationem collium compugnantium, et civitatum munitarum.
²⁷ Habitatores earum breviata manu contremuerunt, et confusi sunt. Facti sunt sicut fœnum agri, et gramen pascuæ, et herba tectorum, quæ exaruit antequam maturesceret.
²⁸ Habitationem tuam, et egressum tuum, et introitum tuum cognovi, et insaniam tuam contra me.
²⁹ Cum fureres adversum me, superbia tua ascendit in aures meas. Ponam ergo circulum in naribus tuis, et frenum in labiis tuis, et reducam te in viam per quam venisti.]
³⁰ Tibi autem hoc erit signum : comede hoc anno quæ sponte nascuntur, et in anno secundo pomis vescere ; in anno autem tertio seminate et metite, et plantate vineas, et comedite fructum earum.
³¹ Et mittet id quod salvatum fuerit de domo Juda, et quod reliquum est, radicem deorsum, et faciet fructum sursum :
³² quia de Jerusalem exibunt reliquiæ, et salvatio de monte Sion : zelus Domini exercituum faciet istud.
³³ Propterea hæc dicit Dominus de rege Assyriorum : [Non intrabit civitatem hanc, et non jaciet ibi sagittam, et non occupabit eam clypeus, et non mittet in circuitu ejus aggerem.
³⁴ In via qua venit, per eam revertetur, et civitatem hanc non ingredietur, dicit Dominus.
³⁵ Et protegam civitatem istam, ut salvem eam propter me, et propter David, servum meum.]
³⁶ Egressus est autem angelus Domini, et percussit in castris Assyriorum centum octoginta quinque millia. Et surrexerunt mane, et ecce omnes cadavera mortuorum.
³⁷ Et egressus est, et abiit, et reversus est Sennacherib, rex Assyriorum, et habitavit in Ninive.
³⁸ Et factum est, cum adoraret in templo Nesroch deum suum, Adramelech et Sarasar, filii ejus, percusserunt eum gladio, fugeruntque in terram Ararat ; et regnavit Asarhaddon, filius ejus, pro eo.
