Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:
¡No escuchen a Ezequías! Esto dice el rey de Asiria: Hagan un trato conmigo dándome un regalo, y salgan a mí. Entonces cada uno de ustedes podrá comer de su propia vid y de su higuera, y beber agua de su propio pozo.
El rey de Asiria promete prosperidad individual a cambio de rendirse y no seguir a Ezequías.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurs during the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem around 701 BC, when the powerful Assyrian empire under Sennacherib was threatening the kingdom of Judah. The Assyrian official called the Rabshakeh was speaking directly to the people on the walls of Jerusalem, trying to undermine their trust in King Hezekiah and convince them to surrender. This was a common psychological warfare tactic used by ancient armies to avoid costly sieges.
