4 Perhaps he will hear Yahweh God your - all [the] words of [the] chief commander whom he sent him [the] king of Assyria - master his to taunt [the] God living and he will rebuke the words which he has heard Yahweh God your and you will lift up prayer for the remnant which is found.
It may be Yhwh thy God will hear all the words of Rab–shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which Yhwh thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 And they came [the] servants of the king Hezekiah to Isaiah.
So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 And he said to them Isaiah thus you will say! to master your thus - he says Yahweh may not you be afraid of the words which you have heard which they have blasphemed [the] servants of [the] king of Assyria me.
And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith Yhwh, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

11 Here! - you you have heard [that] which they have done [the] kings of Assyria to all the lands by totally destroying them and you will you be delivered?
Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou be delivered?

And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of Yhwh, and spread it before Yhwh.
15 And he prayed Hezekiah before Yahweh and he said O Yahweh [the] God of Israel [who] sits the cherubim you he [are] God to alone you of all [the] kingdoms of the earth you you made the heavens and the earth.

Therefore thus saith Yhwh concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
33 By the way which he came by it he will return and into the city this not he will come [the] utterance of Yahweh.
