2 Kings 18:27-29
Evangelical Heritage Version

27 Then the herald said to them:

Is it only to your lord and to you that my lord sent me to speak these words? Is it not also to the people who are sitting on the wall, who will have to eat their own excrement and drink their own urine with you?[a]

28 Then the herald stood up and called out in a loud voice in Hebrew and said the following:

Listen to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 This is what the king says. Don’t let Hezekiah deceive you, because he can’t save you from my hand.

Footnotes

  1. 2 Kings 18:27 The terms for excrement and urine are apparently coarse, because the scribal notes substitute euphemisms for them.
