2 Kings 18:36-37

The Message

³⁶ The people were silent. No one spoke a word for the king had ordered, “Don’t anyone say a word—not one word!”

³⁷ Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, the palace administrator, and Shebna the royal secretary, and Joah son of Asaph the court historian went back to Hezekiah. They had ripped their robes in despair; they reported to Hezekiah the speech of the Rabshakeh.
