16 Ce fut alors qu’Ézéchias, roi de Juda, enleva, pour les livrer au roi d’Assyrie, les lames d’or dont il avait couvert les portes et les linteaux du temple de l’Éternel.

17 Le roi d’Assyrie envoya de Lakis à Jérusalem, vers le roi Ézéchias, Tharthan, Rab-Saris et Rabschaké avec une puissante armée. Ils montèrent, et ils arrivèrent à Jérusalem. Lorsqu’ils furent montés et arrivés, ils s’arrêtèrent à l’aqueduc de l’étang supérieur, sur le chemin du champ du foulon.
