Isaiah 36:9-11
Names of God Bible
9 How can you defeat my master’s lowest-ranking officers when you trust Egypt for chariots and horses?
10 “Have I come to destroy this country without Yahweh on my side? Yahweh said to me, ‘Attack this country, and destroy it.’”
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah said to the field commander, “Speak to us in Aramaic, since we understand it. Don’t speak to us in the Judean language as long as there are people on the wall listening.”

9 How then can you repulse one officer of the least of my master’s officials, even though you are depending on Egypt(A) for chariots(B) and horsemen[a]?(C) 10 Furthermore, have I come to attack and destroy this land without the Lord? The Lord himself told(D) me to march against this country and destroy it.’”
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah(E) said to the field commander, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic,(F) since we understand it. Don’t speak to us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall.”
