Isaiah 36:12 in Context — Isaiah 36

10 Ora, subi eu sem o SENHOR contra esta terra, para destruí-la? O [próprio] SENHOR me disse: Sobe contra esta terra, e destrói-a.

11 Então Eliaquim, Sebna e Joá disseram a Rabsaqué: Pedimos que fale a teus servos em aramaico, porque nós o entendemos; e não nos fale na língua judaica, aos ouvidos do povo, que está sobre o muro.

12 Porém Rabsaqué disse: Por acaso meu senhor me mandou falar estas palavras [só] a teu senhor e a ti, e não [também] aos homens que estão sentados sobre o muro, que juntamente convosco comerão suas próprias fezes, e beberão sua própria urina?

13 Então Rabsaqué se pôs de pé, clamou em alta voz na língua judaica, e disse: Ouvi as palavras do grande rei, o rei da Assíria!

14 Assim diz o rei: Que Ezequias não vos engane, pois ele não poderá vos livrar.
