Isaiah 36:20-22

Expanded Bible

²⁰ ·Not one [^LWhich…?] of all the gods of these countries has ·saved [rescued; ^Tdelivered] his people from me. Neither can the Lord ·save [rescue; ^Tdeliver] Jerusalem from my ·power [^Lhand].”

²¹ ·The people [^LThey] were silent. They didn’t answer the commander at all, because King Hezekiah had ordered, “Don’t answer him.”

²² Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah [22:20], ·the palace manager [^Lwho was over the house], Shebna [22:15], the ·royal secretary [scribe], and Joah son of Asaph, the ·recorder [royal historian], went to Hezekiah. They tore their clothes [^Ca sign of grief, anguish or despair] and went in and told him what the field commander had said.
