- 19:10 Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah the king of Judah, saying, Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
-
说，你们对犹大王希西家如此说，不要让你所信靠的神欺哄你，说，耶路撒冷必不交在亚述王的手中。
- 19:11 Indeed, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, destroying them utterly. And will you be delivered?
-
你总听说亚述诸王向各地所行的，乃是尽行毁灭，难道你还能得拯救么？
- 19:12 Have the gods of the nations whom my fathers have destroyed delivered them: Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and the children of Eden, who were in Telassar?

耶和华阿，求你侧耳而听；耶和华阿，求你睁眼而看；要听西拿基立打发使者来辱骂活神的话。
- 19:17 Truly, O Jehovah, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
-
耶和华阿，亚述诸王果真使列国和列国之地变为荒凉，
- 19:18 And have cast their gods into the fire, because they were not gods but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; so they destroyed them.

- 19:22 Whom have you reproached and reviled? Against whom have you lifted up your voice And lifted up your eyes haughtily? Against the Holy One of Israel.
-
你辱骂谁？亵渎谁？你扬起声来，高举眼目攻击谁呢？乃是攻击以色列的圣者。
- 19:23 By your messengers you have reproached the Lord, And you have said, In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to the height of the mountains, To the sides of Lebanon; And I have cut down its tall cedars, And the choicest of its cypresses; And I have entered into its farthest lodging place, And its luxuriant forest.
-
你藉你的使者辱骂主，你说，我率领许多战车上了山岭的高处，到了利巴嫩极深之处；我砍伐了其中高大的香柏树和佳美的松树；
- 19:24 I have dug And have drunk foreign waters, And with the sole of my feet I have dried up All the rivers of Egypt.
-
我进到其中极远的住处，和其中茂密的树林。我挖井喝了外邦的水；我用脚掌踏干了埃及一切的河。
- 19:25 Have you not heard That long ago I did it And that from the days of old I had formed it? Now I have brought it to pass, That you should destroy fortified cities And make them into ruinous heaps.

耶和华说，我早先所作的，古时所定的，你岂没有听见么？现在我将它实现，就是藉你使坚固城荒废，变为乱堆。
- 19:26 Therefore their inhabitants were short of strength; They were dismayed and felt ashamed; They were like vegetation of the field And green shoots of tender grass, Like grass which grows on the housetops And is scorched before it has grown up.
-
所以其中的居民力量短缺，惊惶羞愧；他们像田间的菜蔬，和嫩草的青苗，如长在房顶上的草，未长成就被晒枯。
- 19:27 But I know your sitting down, And your going out and your coming in, And your raging against Me.
-
你坐下，你出去，你进来，你向我发烈怒，我都知道。
- 19:28 Because your raging against Me And your arrogance have come up into My ears, I will put My hook in your nose, And My bridle in your lips; And I will turn you back on the way by which you came.
-
因你向我发烈怒，又因你狂傲的话上达我的耳中，我必用钩子钩住你的鼻子，把嚼环放在你的嘴里，使你从原路转回去。
- 19:29 And this shall be the sign to you: This year you shall eat that which grows up of itself, and in the second year that which shoots up from the same, and in the third year sow and reap and plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
-
希西家阿，这是给你的兆头：你们今年要吃遗落自生的，明年也要吃遗落自长的；至于后年，你们要撒种收割，栽植葡萄园，吃其中的果子。
- 19:30 And the remnant of those who have escaped of the house of Judah will again take root downward and bear fruit upward.

必有余剩的民从耶路撒冷而出，必有逃脱的人从锡安山而来。万军之耶和华的热心必成就这事。
- 19:32 Therefore thus says Jehovah concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come to this city, Nor shoot an arrow there; Neither shall he come against it with a shield And build up a mound against it.
-
所以，耶和华论亚述王如此说，他必不得来到这城，也不在这里射箭；不得拿盾牌到城前，也不筑垒攻城。
- 19:33 By the way on which he came, By the same shall he return, And into this city he shall not come, Declares Jehovah.
-
他从那条路来，必从那条路回去，必不得进入这城；这是耶和华说的。
- 19:34 And around this city I will put an enclosure, To save it, For My own sake, And for the sake of David, My servant.
-
我为自己的缘故，又为我仆人大卫的缘故，必保护拯救这城。
- 19:35 And that night an angel of Jehovah went out and struck the Assyrians' camp, a hundred and eighty-five thousand; and when they rose up early in the morning, all of them were dead corpses.

一日在他的神尼斯洛庙里叩拜，他儿子亚得米勒和沙利色用刀杀了他，就逃到亚拉腊地。他儿子以撒哈顿接续他作王。
