Chapter 19: Hashem saves Chizkiyah from Sancheirev
- Chizkiyah mourns the situation: When king Chizkiyah heard the message related to him from the king of Ashur, he tore his garments, and covered himself with sackcloth, and came to the temple [to beseech mercy from G-d].
- The king sends his messengers to consult with the prophet Yeshayahu: Chizkiyahu sent Eliakim who was appointed over the palace, and Shevna the scribe and the elders of the priests, who were all covered with sackcloth, to Yeshayahu the prophet, the son of Amotz [to consult with him as to what they should do]. They came to Yeshayahu and told him of the dire situation with the king of Ashur and that he has blasphemed G-d, and that the Jewish people are weak like a woman who needs to give birth but has no strength to do so. “Let G-d listen to the words of Ravshakeh, and please offer a prayer to G-d on behalf of the rest of the Jewish people.”
- Yeshayahu encourages Chizkiyahu to not fear Sancheirev: Yeshayahu said to the messengers of the king that they should relay back to the king, that G-d has told him that he should not fear the words of the lads of the king of Ashur who have blasphemed Him. Hashem has said, “I will cause a rumor to be spread of an imminent threat in his country, and will enter into him a spirit of worry and he will return to his land, and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his land.”
