2 Kings 19:4

Context
19:4 Perhaps the Lord your God will hear all these things the chief adviser has spoken on behalf of his master, the king of Assyria, who sent him to taunt the living God. 1  When the Lord your God hears, perhaps he will punish him for the things he has said. 2  So pray for this remnant that remains.’” 3 

2 Kings 19:22-23

Context

19:22 Whom have you taunted and hurled insults at?

At whom have you shouted, 4 

and looked so arrogantly? 5 

At the Holy One of Israel! 6 

19:23 Through your messengers you taunted the sovereign master, 7 

‘With my many chariots 8 

I climbed up the high mountains,

the slopes of Lebanon.

I cut down its tall cedars,

and its best evergreens.

I invaded its most remote regions, 9 

its thickest woods.

1 tn Heb “all the words of the chief adviser whom his master, the king of Assyria, sent to taunt the living God.”

2 tn Heb “and rebuke the words which the Lord your God hears.”

3 tn Heb “and lift up a prayer on behalf of the remnant that is found.”

4 tn Heb “have you raised a voice.”

5 tn Heb “and lifted your eyes on high?”

6 sn This divine title pictures the Lord as the sovereign king who rules over his covenant people and exercises moral authority over them.

7 tn The word is אֲדֹנָי (’adonai), “lord,” but some Hebrew mss have יְהוָה (yehvah), “Lord.”

8 tc The consonantal text (Kethib) has בְּרֶכֶב (bÿrekhev), but this must be dittographic (note the following רִכְבִּי [rikhbi], “my chariots”). The marginal reading (Qere) בְּרֹב (bÿrov), “with many,” is supported by many Hebrew mss and ancient versions, as well as the parallel passage in Isa 37:24.

9 tn Heb “the lodging place of its extremity.”
