25 D’ailleurs, est-ce sans la volonté de l’Éternel que je suis monté contre ce lieu, pour le détruire? L’Éternel m’a dit: Monte contre ce pays, et détruis-le.
26 Éliakim, fils de Hilkija, Schebna et Joach, dirent à Rabschaké: Parle à tes serviteurs en araméen, car nous le comprenons; et ne nous parle pas en langue judaïque, aux oreilles du peuple qui est sur la muraille.
27 Rabschaké leur répondit: Est-ce à ton maître et à toi que mon maître m’a envoyé dire ces paroles? N’est-ce pas à ces hommes assis sur la muraille pour manger leurs excréments et pour boire leur urine avec vous?
28 Alors Rabschaké, s’étant avancé, cria à haute voix en langue judaïque, et dit: Écoutez la parole du grand roi, du roi d’Assyrie!
29 Ainsi parle le roi: Qu’Ézéchias ne vous abuse point, car il ne pourra vous délivrer de ma main.
