H0853–אֵת–et

Then the Rab-shakeh got up and said with a loud voice in the Jews' language, Give ear to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.

אֶתְכֶֽם׃ (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

And do not let Hezekiah make you put your faith in the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly keep us safe, and this town will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.

אֶתְכֶ֤ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Till I come and take you away to a land like yours, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vine-gardens.

אֶתְכֶ֖ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Give no attention to Hezekiah when he says to you, The Lord will keep us safe. Has any one of the gods of the nations kept his land from falling into the hands of the king of Assyria?

אֶתְכֶ֤ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? where are the gods of Samaria? and have they kept Samaria out of my hand?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Who among all the gods of these countries have kept their country from falling into my hand, to give cause for the thought that the Lord will keep Jerusalem from falling into my hand?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

But they kept quiet and gave him no answer: for the king's order was, Give him no answer.

אֹת֖וֹ (אֹת֖) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothing parted as a sign of grief, and gave him an account of what the Rab-shakeh had said.

אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

And on hearing it Hezekiah took off his robe and put on haircloth and went into the house of the Lord.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the chief priests, dressed in haircloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֵ֣ת׀ (אֵ֣ת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֵת֙ (אֵת֙) 'Et “<obj.>”

It may be that the Lord your God will give ear to the words of the Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria, his master, has sent to say evil things against the living God, and will make his words come to nothing: so make your prayer for the rest of the peop

אֵ֣ת׀ 'et “<obj.>”

And Isaiah said to them, This is what you are to say to your master: The Lord says, Be not troubled by the words which the servants of the king of Assyria have said against me in your hearing.

אוֹתִֽי׃ (אוֹתִֽ) 'o.T “<obj.>”

So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah: for it had come to his ears that the king of Assyria had gone away from Lachish.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?

אוֹתָ֜ם (אוֹתָ֜) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Hezekiah took the letter from the hands of those who had come with it; and after reading it, Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, opening the letter there before the Lord,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

O Lord of armies, the God of Israel, seated between the winged ones, you only are the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord; let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see: take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.

אֵ֚ת 'et “<obj.>”

Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have made waste all the nations and their lands,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And have given their gods to the fire: for they were no gods, but wood and stone, the work of men's hands; so they have given them to destruction.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Against whom have you said evil and bitter things? and against whom has your voice been loud and your eyes lifted up? even against the Holy One of Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Has it not come to your ears how I did it long before, purposing it in times long past? Now I have given effect to my design, so that by you strong towns might be turned into masses of broken walls.

אוֹתָ֣הּ (אוֹתָ֣) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

But I have knowledge of your getting up and your resting, of your going out and your coming in.

וְאֵ֖ת (אֵ֖ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

O Lord, keep in mind how I have been true to you with all my heart, and have done what is good in your eyes. And Hezekiah gave way to bitter weeping.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”

Go to Hezekiah, and say, The Lord, the God of David, your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping: see, I will give you fifteen more years of life.
