despises the gain of oppressions, who gestures with his hands,

sure.

king. He will save us.

bodies will come up; and the mountains will melt in their blood.

come down on Edom, and on the people of my curse, for judgment.

forever. From generation to generation, it will lie waste. No one
will pass through it forever and ever.

there; and all its princes shall be nothing.

its fortresses; and it will be a habitation of jackals, a court for
ostriches.

the wild goat will cry to his fellow. Yes, the night creature shall
settle there, and shall find herself a place of rest.

gather under her shade. Yes, the kites will be gathered there, every

rejoice and blossom like a rose.

springs of water. Grass with reeds and rushes will be in the
habitation of jackals, where they lay.

it. They will not be found there; but the redeemed will walk there.

Isa
36:1 Now it happened in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that
Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all of the fortified cities of
Judah, and captured them.
Isa
36:2 The king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to
king Hezekiah with a large army. He stood by the aqueduct from the
upper pool in the fuller's field highway.
Isa
36:3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household,
and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder came
out to him.
Isa
36:4 Rabshakeh said to them, "Now tell Hezekiah, 'Thus says the
great king, the king of Assyria, "What confidence is this in
which you trust?
Isa
36:5 I say that your counsel and strength for the war are only vain
words. Now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
Isa
36:6 Behold, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in
Egypt, which if a man leans on it, it will go into his hand and
pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Isa
36:7 But if you tell me, 'We trust in Yahweh our God,' isn't that he
whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has
said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'You shall worship before this
altar?' "
Isa
36:8 Now therefore, please make 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 set riders on them.
Isa
36:9 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least
of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and
for horsemen?
Isa
36:10 Have I come up now without Yahweh against this land to destroy
it? Yahweh said to me, "Go up against this land, and destroy
it." ' "
Isa
36:11 Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, "Please
speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand it; and don't
speak to us in the Jews' language in the hearing of the people who
are on the wall."
Isa
36:12 But Rabshakeh said, "Has my master sent me only to your
master and to you, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit
on the wall, who will eat their own dung and drink their own urine
with you?"
Isa
36:13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and called out with a loud voice in the
Jews' language, and said, "Hear the words of the great king, the
king of Assyria!
Isa
36:14 Thus says the king, 'Don't let Hezekiah deceive you; for he
will not be able to deliver you.
Isa
36:15 Don't let Hezekiah make you trust in Yahweh, saying, "Yahweh
will surely deliver us. This city won't be given into the hand of the
king of Assyria." '
Isa
36:16 Don't listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria,
'Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and each of you eat
from his vine, and each one from his fig tree, and each one of you
drink the waters of his own cistern;
Isa
36:17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a
land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
Isa
36:18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, "Yahweh will
deliver us." Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their
lands from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Isa
36:19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of
Sepharvaim? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Isa
36:20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have
delivered their country out of my hand, that Yahweh should deliver
Jerusalem out of my hand?' "
Isa
36:21 But they remained silent, and said nothing in reply, for the
king's commandment was, "Don't answer him."
Isa
36:22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household,
and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came
to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of
Rabshakeh.

The
Composite
Bible
is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

deal
treacherously
with thee.

make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
