Isaiah 36:21-22

New Century Version

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

²² Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah tore their clothes to show how upset they were. (Eliakim son of Hilkiah was the palace manager, Shebna was the royal secretary, and Joah son of Asaph was the recorder.) The three men went to Hezekiah and told him what the field commander had said.
