列王纪下 18
Chinese New Version (Simplified)

希西家作犹大王(A)

18 以色列王以拉的儿子何细亚在位第三年，犹大王亚哈斯的儿子希西家登基作王。 2 他登基的时候是二十五岁；他在耶路撒冷作王二十九年，他母亲名叫亚比，是撒迦利雅的女儿。 3 他行耶和华看为正的事，效法他的祖宗大卫一切所行的。 4 他废去邱坛，打碎神柱，砍掉亚舍拉；他又打碎摩西所做的铜蛇，因为直到那些日子，以色列人仍然向它焚香，称它作尼忽士但。 5 他倚靠耶和华以色列的　神，在他以前或以后的犹大列王中，没有像他的。 6 他忠于耶和华，没有转离不跟从他，谨守他的吩咐，就是他曾吩咐摩西的。 7 耶和华和他同在，他所有的征战都得到成功。他背叛亚述王，不再臣服他。 8 他攻击非利士人，直到迦萨和它的四境，从哨站以至设防城。

撒玛利亚被攻陷

9 希西家王在位第四年，就是以色列王以拉的儿子何细亚在位第七年，亚述王撒缦以色上来攻击撒玛利亚，把城围困； 10 过了三年，他们就攻取了撒玛利亚。希西家在位第六年，就是以色列王何细亚在位第九年，撒玛利亚被攻取了。 11 亚述王把以色列人掳到亚述去，把他们安置在哈腊、哈博河和歌散河，以及玛代人的城里； 12 这是因为他们不听从耶和华他们　神的话，违背他的约；耶和华的仆人摩西吩咐的一切，他们都不听从，不遵行。

亚述王攻打犹大(B)

13 希西家王在位第十四年，亚述王西拿基立上来攻击犹大所有的设防城，占据了它们。 14 犹大王希西家派人往拉吉去见亚述王说：“我有罪了，请你离我回去吧，你们加于我的处分，我必承当。”于是亚述王罚了犹大王希西家九千公斤银子和九百公斤金子。 15 希西家就把耶和华殿和王宫宝库内找到的所有金子都给了他。 16 那时，犹大王希西家把耶和华殿门上和自己包在门柱上的金子，都刮了下来，给了亚述王。

17 亚述王从拉吉派他珥探、拉伯撒利和拉伯沙基率领大军，往耶路撒冷，到希西家王那里去。他们就上来，去到耶路撒冷。他们到达以后，就站在上池的引水道旁，在漂布地的大路上。 18 他们呼叫王；希勒家的儿子王宫总管以利亚敬、书记舍伯那和亚萨的儿子史官约亚就出来见他们。

拉伯沙基的恐吓(C)

19 拉伯沙基对他们说：“你们要对希西家说：‘亚述大王这样说：你所倚赖的这种防御算是甚么呢？ 20 你说有作战的智谋和能力，只是嘴上空言，现在你倚赖谁才背叛我呢？ 21 你看，你倚赖埃及这压伤的芦苇做的手杖，人若是倚靠它，它必刺入他的手，把手刺伤，埃及王法老对所有倚赖他的人正是这样。 22 如果你们对我说：我们倚靠的是耶和华我们的　神，希西家不是曾把他的邱坛和祭坛废去，又对犹大人和耶路撒冷人说：你们要在耶路撒冷这祭坛前敬拜吗？ 23 现在，你可以和我主亚述王打赌，我给你二千匹战马，看你能否派出骑兵来骑牠们？ 24 否则，你怎能使我主最小的一位臣仆转脸逃跑呢？你竟然倚赖埃及供应战车和战马吗？ 25 现在，我上来攻击这地方，要毁灭它，不是有耶和华的意思吗？耶和华曾对我说：上去攻击那地，把它毁灭。’”

26 希勒家的儿子以利亚敬、舍伯那和约亚对拉伯沙基说：“请用亚兰语和你的仆人们说话，因为我们听得懂；不要用犹大语和我们说话，免得传入在城墙上的人民的耳中。” 27 拉伯沙基对他们说：“我主派我来，只是对你的主和你说这些话吗？不也是对坐在城墙上，和你们在一起吃自己的粪、喝自己的尿的人民说的吗？”

劝降的话(D)

28 于是拉伯沙基站着，用犹大语大声喊着，说：“你们要听亚述大王的话。 29 王这样说：‘不要给希西家欺骗了你们，因为他不能从我的手中解救你们； 30 也不要让希西家欺骗你们去信赖耶和华说：耶和华一定会解救我们，这城必不会交在亚述王的手中。 31 不要听从希西家，因为亚述王这样说：你们要与我和好，出来向我投降，各人就可以吃自己的葡萄树和无花果树的果子，喝自己水池里的水。 32 直到我来带你们到一个像你们国家的地方，那地方有五谷新酒，粮食和葡萄园，橄榄树和蜂蜜，你们必可以活着，不会死亡。不要听从希西家，因为他误导你们说：耶和华必解救我们。 33 列国的神真能解救他们的国土脱离亚述王的手吗？ 34 哈马和亚珥拔的神在哪里呢？西法瓦音、希拿和以瓦的神在哪里呢？他们可以解救撒玛利亚脱离我的手吗？ 35 这些国家所有的神，有哪一个曾解救他自己的国家脱离我的手呢？难道耶和华能解救耶路撒冷脱离我的手吗？’” 36 众民都不出声，一句话也不回答他，因为王吩咐他们：“不要回答他。” 37 当时王宫总管希勒家的儿子以利亚敬、书记舍伯那和亚萨的儿子史官约亚来到希西家那里，他们的衣服都撕裂了，他们把拉伯沙基的话都告诉了他。

New King James Version

Hezekiah Reigns in Judah(A)

18 Now it came to pass in the third year of (B)Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, that (C)Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was (D)Abi[a] the daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.

4 (E)He removed the [b]high places and broke the sacred pillars, cut down the [c]wooden image and broke in pieces the (F)bronze serpent that Moses had made; for until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it, and called it [d]Nehushtan. 5 He (G)trusted in the Lord God of Israel, (H)so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him. 6 For he (I)held fast to the Lord; he did not depart from following Him, but kept His commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses. 7 The Lord (J)was with him; he (K)prospered wherever he went. And he (L)rebelled against the king of Assyria and did not serve him. 8 (M)He [e]subdued the Philistines, as far as Gaza and its territory, (N)from watchtower to fortified city.

9 Now (O)it came to pass in the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it. 10 And at the end of three years they took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is, (P)the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 (Q)Then the king of Assyria carried Israel away captive to Assyria, and put them (R)in Halah and by the Habor, the River of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they (S)did not obey the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed His covenant and all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; and they would neither hear nor do them.

13 And (T)in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them. 14 Then Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; turn away from me; whatever you impose on me I will pay.” And the king of Assyria assessed Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 So Hezekiah (U)gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord and in the treasuries of the king’s house. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave [f]it to the king of Assyria.

Sennacherib Boasts Against the Lord(V)

17 Then the king of Assyria sent the [g]Tartan, the [h]Rabsaris, and the [i]Rabshakeh from Lachish, with a great army against Jerusalem, to King Hezekiah. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. When they had come up, they went and stood by the (W)aqueduct from the upper pool, (X)which was on the highway to the Fuller’s Field. 18 And when they had called to the king, (Y)Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, Shebna the [j]scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder, came out to them. 19 Then the Rabshakeh said to them, “Say now to Hezekiah, ‘Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: (Z)“What confidence is this in which you trust? 20 You speak of having plans and power for war; but they are [k]mere words. And in whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? 21 (AA)Now look! You are trusting in the staff of this broken reed, Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him. 22 But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the Lord our God,’ is it not He (AB)whose [l]high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and said to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem’?” ’ 23 Now therefore, I urge you, give a pledge to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses—if you are able on your part to put riders on them! 24 How then will you repel one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put your trust in Egypt for chariots and horsemen? 25 Have I now come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, ‘Go up against this land, and destroy it.’ ”

26 (AC)Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, Shebna, and Joah said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in (AD)Aramaic, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in [m]Hebrew in the hearing of the people who are on the wall.”

27 But the Rabshakeh said to them, “Has my master sent me to your master and to you to speak these words, and not to the men who sit on the wall, who will eat and drink their own waste with you?”

28 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out with a loud voice in [n]Hebrew, and spoke, saying, “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria! 29 Thus says the king: (AE)‘Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he shall not be able to deliver you from his hand; 30 nor let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord, saying, “The Lord will surely deliver us; this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” ’ 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria: ‘Make peace with me [o]by a present and come out to me; and every one of you eat from his own (AF)vine and every one from his own fig tree, and every one of you drink the waters of his own cistern; 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, (AG)a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive groves and honey, that you may live and not die. But do not listen to Hezekiah, lest he persuade you, saying, “The Lord will deliver us.” 33 (AH)Has any of the gods of the nations at all delivered its land from the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of (AI)Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim and Hena and (AJ)Ivah? Indeed, have they delivered Samaria from my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of the lands have delivered their countries from my hand, (AK)that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem from my hand?’ ”

36 But the people held their peace and answered him not a word; for the king’s commandment was, “Do not answer him.” 37 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah (AL)with their clothes torn, and told him the words of the Rabshakeh.

Hezekiah Reigns in Judah

18 (A)In the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, (B)Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign. 2 He was (C)twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was (D)Abi the daughter of Zechariah. 3 (E)And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done. 4 (F)He removed the high places and broke the (G)pillars and cut down (H)the Asherah. And he broke in pieces (I)the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until those days the people of Israel had made offerings to it (it was called Nehushtan).[a] 5 (J)He trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel, (K)so that there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those who were before him. 6 (L)For he held fast to the Lord. He did not depart from following him, but kept the commandments that the Lord commanded Moses. 7 (M)And the Lord was with him; wherever he went out, (N)he prospered. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and would not serve him. 8 (O)He struck down the Philistines as far as Gaza and its territory, (P)from watchtower to fortified city.

9 In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, (Q)Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it, 10 and at the end of three years he took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 The king of Assyria carried the Israelites away to Assyria and put them in (R)Halah, and on the (S)Habor, (T)the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of the Lord their God but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded. They neither listened nor obeyed.

Sennacherib Attacks Judah

13 (U)In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and took them. 14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; withdraw from me. Whatever you impose on me I will bear.” (V)And the king of Assyria required of Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents[b] of silver and thirty talents of gold. 15 And Hezekiah (W)gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord and in the treasuries of the king's house. 16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord and from the doorposts that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria. 17 And the king of Assyria sent the (X)Tartan, the Rab-saris, and the Rabshakeh with a great army from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. When they arrived, they came and stood by (Y)the conduit of the upper pool, which is on the highway to the Washer's Field. 18 And when they called for the king, there came out to them (Z)Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and (AA)Shebnah the secretary, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder.

19 And the Rabshakeh said to them, “Say to Hezekiah, ‘Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: On what do you rest this trust of yours? 20 Do you think that mere words are strategy and power for war? In whom do you now trust, that you have rebelled against me? 21 Behold, you are trusting now in Egypt, that broken reed of (AB)a staff, which will pierce the hand of any man who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him. 22 But if you say to me, “We trust in the Lord our God,” is it not he (AC)whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and to Jerusalem, “You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem”? 23 Come now, make a wager with my master the king of Assyria: I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them. 24 How then can you repulse a single captain among the least of my master's servants, when you trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 25 Moreover, is it without the Lord that I have come up against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, “Go up against this land and destroy it.”’”

26 Then (AD)Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and (AE)Shebnah, and Joah, said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in (AF)Aramaic, for we understand it. Do not speak to us in the language of Judah within the hearing of the people who are on the wall.” 27 But the Rabshakeh said to them, “Has my master sent me to speak these words to your master and to you, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are doomed with you to eat their own dung and to drink their own urine?”

28 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out in a loud voice in the language of Judah: “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria! 29 Thus says the king: ‘Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you out of my[c] hand. 30 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord by saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’ 31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria: ‘Make your peace with me[d] and come out to me. Then (AG)each one of you will eat of his own vine, and each one of his own fig tree, and each one of you will drink the water of his own cistern, 32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, (AH)a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and (AI)honey, that you may live, and not die. And do not listen to Hezekiah when he misleads you by saying, “The Lord will deliver us.” 33 (AJ)Has any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 (AK)Where are the gods of (AL)Hamath and (AM)Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and (AN)Ivvah? Have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 35 Who among all the gods of the lands have delivered their lands out of my hand, (AO)that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?’”

36 But the people were silent and answered him not a word, for the king's command was, “Do not answer him.” 37 Then (AP)Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the secretary, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah (AQ)with their clothes torn and told him the words of the Rabshakeh.

VIII. GLI ULTIMI TEMPI DEL REGNO DI GIUDA

1. EZECHIA, IL PROFETA ISAIA E L'ASSIRIA

Introduzione al regno di Ezechia (716-687)

18 Nell'anno terzo di Osea figlio di Ela, re di Israele, divenne re Ezechia figlio di Acaz, re di Giuda. 2 Quando egli divenne re, aveva venticinque anni; regnò ventinove anni in Gerusalemme. Sua madre si chiamava Abi, figlia di Zaccaria. 3 Fece ciò che è retto agli occhi del Signore, secondo quanto aveva fatto Davide suo antenato. 4 Egli eliminò le alture e frantumò le stele, abbattè il palo sacro e fece a pezzi il serpente di bronzo, eretto da Mosè; difatti fino a quel tempo gli Israeliti gli bruciavano incenso e lo chiamavano Necustan. 5 Egli confidò nel Signore, Dio di Israele. Fra tutti i re di Giuda nessuno fu simile a lui, né fra i suoi successori né fra i suoi predecessori. 6 Attaccato al Signore, non se ne allontanò; osservò i decreti che il Signore aveva dati a Mosè. 7 Il Signore fu con Ezechia e questi riuscì in tutte le iniziative. Egli si ribellò al re d'Assiria e non gli fu sottomesso. 8 Sconfisse i Filistei fino a Gaza e ai suoi confini, dal più piccolo villaggio fino alle fortezze.

Riepilogo della presa di Samaria

9 Nell'anno quarto del re Ezechia, cioè l'anno settimo di Osea figlio di Ela, re di Israele, Salmanassar re di Assiria marciò contro Samaria e la assediò. 10 Dopo tre anni la prese; nell'anno sesto di Ezechia, cioè l'anno nono di Osea re di Israele, Samaria fu presa. 11 Il re d'Assiria deportò gli Israeliti in Assiria, destinandoli a Chelach, al Cabor, fiume del Gozan, e alle città della Media. 12 Ciò accadde perché quelli non avevano ascoltato la voce del Signore loro Dio e ne avevano trasgredito l'alleanza e non avevano ascoltato né messo in pratica quanto aveva loro comandato Mosè, servo di Dio.

Invasione di Sennàcherib

13 Nell'anno quattordici del re Ezechia, Sennàcherib re di Assiria assalì e prese tutte le fortezze di Giuda. 14 Ezechia, re di Giuda, mandò a dire al re d'Assiria in Lachis: «Ho peccato; allontànati da me e io sopporterò quanto mi imporrai». Il re di Assiria impose a Ezechia re di Giuda trecento talenti d'argento e trenta talenti d'oro. 15 Ezechia consegnò tutto il denaro che si trovava nel tempio e nei tesori della reggia. 16 In quel tempo Ezechia staccò dalle porte del tempio del Signore e dagli stipiti l'oro, di cui egli stesso re di Giuda li aveva rivestiti, e lo diede al re d'Assiria.

Missione del gran coppiere

17 Il re d'Assiria mandò il tartan, il capo delle guardie e il gran coppiere da Lachis a Gerusalemme, al re Ezechia, con un grande esercito. Costoro salirono e giunsero a Gerusalemme; si fermarono al canale della piscina superiore, sulla strada del campo del lavandaio.

18 Essi chiesero del re e incontro a loro vennero Eliakìm figlio di Chelkia, il maggiordomo, Sebna lo scriba e Ioach figlio di Asaf, l'archivista. 19 Il gran coppiere disse loro: «Riferite a Ezechia: Dice il gran re, il re d'Assiria: Che fiducia è quella su cui ti appoggi? 20 Pensi forse che la semplice parola possa sostituire il consiglio e la forza nella guerra? Ora, in chi confidi ribellandoti a me? 21 Ecco, tu confidi su questo sostegno di canna spezzata, che è l'Egitto, che penetra nella mano, forandola, a chi vi si appoggia; tale è il faraone re di Egitto per chiunque confida in lui. 22 Se mi dite: Noi confidiamo nel Signore nostro Dio, non è forse quello stesso del quale Ezechia distrusse le alture e gli altari, ordinando alla gente di Giuda e di Gerusalemme: Vi prostrerete soltanto davanti a questo altare in Gerusalemme? 23 Ora vieni al mio signore, re d'Assiria; io ti darò duemila cavalli, se potrai procurarti cavalieri per essi. 24 Come potresti fare retrocedere uno solo dei più piccoli servi del mio signore? Eppure tu confidi nell'Egitto per i carri e i cavalieri. 25 Ora, non è forse secondo il volere del Signore che io sono venuto contro questo paese per distruggerlo? Il Signore mi ha detto: Và contro questo paese e distruggilo».

26 Eliakìm figlio di Chelkia, Sebna e Ioach risposero al gran coppiere: «Parla, ti prego, ai tuoi servi in aramaico, perché noi lo comprendiamo; non parlare in ebraico, mentre il popolo che è sulle mura ascolta». 27 Il gran coppiere replicò: «Forse io sono stato inviato al tuo signore e a te dal mio signore per pronunziare tali parole e non piuttosto agli uomini che stanno sulle mura, i quali saranno ridotti a mangiare i loro escrementi e a bere la loro urina con voi?». 28 Il gran coppiere allora si alzò e gridò a gran voce in ebraico: «Udite la parola del gran re, del re d'Assiria: 29 Dice il re: Non vi inganni Ezechia, poiché non potrà liberarvi dalla mia mano. 30 Ezechia non vi induca a confidare nel Signore, dicendo: Certo, il Signore ci libererà, questa città non sarà messa nelle mani del re d'Assiria. 31 Non ascoltate Ezechia, poiché dice il re d'Assiria: Fate la pace con me e arrendetevi; allora ognuno potrà mangiare i frutti della sua vigna e dei suoi fichi, ognuno potrà bere l'acqua della sua cisterna, 32 finché io non venga per condurvi in un paese come il vostro, in un paese che produce frumento e mosto, in un paese ricco di pane e di vigne, in un paese di ulivi e di miele; voi vivrete e non morirete. Non ascoltate Ezechia che vi inganna, dicendovi: Il Signore ci libererà! 33 Forse gli dei delle nazioni hanno liberato ognuno il proprio paese dalla mano del re d'Assiria? 34 Dove sono gli dei di Amat e di Arpad? Dove sono gli dei di Sefarvàim, di Ena e di Ivva? Hanno essi forse liberato Samaria dalla mia mano? 35 Quali mai, fra tutti gli dei di quelle nazioni, hanno liberato il loro paese dalla mia mano? Potrà forse il Signore liberare Gerusalemme dalla mia mano?».

36 Quelli tacquero e non gli risposero neppure una parola, perché l'ordine del re era: «Non rispondete loro».

37 Eliakìm figlio di Chelkia, il maggiordomo, Sebna lo scriba e Ioach figlio di Asaf, l'archivista, si presentarono a Ezechia con le vesti stracciate e gli riferirono le parole del gran coppiere.
