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 eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern;
¡No escuchen a Ezequías! Esto dice el rey de Asiria: Hagan un acuerdo de paz conmigo dándome un regalo, y ríndanse a mí. Entonces cada uno de ustedes podrá comer de su propia viña y de su higuera, y beber agua de su propio pozo.
El rey asirio promete prosperidad personal a cambio de rendirse y no seguir a Ezequías.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 8th century BC, the Assyrian Empire under King Sennacherib was aggressively expanding and besieging Jerusalem as part of its conquest of Judah. King Hezekiah of Judah was leading resistance against this invasion, relying on his alliance with God, while Assyrian envoys were sent to undermine his authority by tempting the people with promises of peace. These offers were deceptive tactics in a larger campaign of intimidation, as Assyria sought to conquer without a full battle.
