And they called to the king, and Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder went out to them.
And Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, came in to Hezekiah, having torn their garments; and they told him the words of the chief of the cupbearers.
And Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the chief cupbearer, Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we hear. But do not speak to us in Jewish, in the ears of the people on the wall.
And Eliakim, Hilkiah’s son who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their garments torn. And they reported to him the words of the chief cupbearer.
And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
