Yeshayah 37:29-38 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

29. Because thy rage against Me, and thy insolence, is come up into Mine ears, therefore will I put My hook in thy nose, and My bit in thy sfatayim (lips), and I will turn thee back by the derech by which thou camest.

30. And this shall be HaOt unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which springeth from the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant kramim (vineyards), and eat the fruit thereof.

31. And the remnant that is escaped of the Bais Yehudah shall again take shoresh (root) downward, and bear pri upward;

32. For out of Yerushalayim shall go forth She'erit (remnant) and they that escape out of Mt Tziyon; the zeal of Hashem Tzva'os shall accomplish this.

33. Therefore thus saith Hashem concerning Melech Ashur, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot khetz (an arrow) there, nor come before it with mogen, nor cast a siege ramp against it.

34. By the derech that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith Hashem.

35. For I will defend this city to save it for Mine Own sake, and for the sake of Dovid Avdi.

36. Then the Malach Hashem went forth, and struck down in the Machaneh Ashur a hundred and fourscore and five elef; and when they arose early in the boker, hinei, they were all pegarim mesim (dead corpses).

37. So Sanecheriv Melech Ashur departed, and went and returned, and dwelt in Nineveh.

38. And it came to pass, as he was worshiping in the Bais Nisroch elohav, that Adramelech and Saretzer, his banim, cut him down with the cherev; they escaped into Eretz Ararat; Esar Chadon bno reigned in his place.
