Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:

The king of Libnah, one; the king of Adullam, one;

Libnah, and Ether, and Ashan,

And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.

The king of Jarmuth, one; the king of Lachish, one;

Lachish, and Bozkath, and Eglon,

So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

And he heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He is come forth to make war with thee. And when he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,

O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the swift beast: she is the beginning of the sin to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
