Isaiah 37:2-4
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
2 And he sent Eliacim who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and the ancients of the priests covered with sackcloth, to Isaias the son of Amos the prophet.
3 And they said to him: Thus saith Ezechias: This day is a day of tribulation, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 It may be the Lord thy God will hear the words of Rabsaces, whom the king of the Assyrians his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God, and to reproach with words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that is left.

Isaiah 37:2-4
New International Version
2 He sent Eliakim(A) the palace administrator, Shebna(B) the secretary, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz.(C) 3 They told him, “This is what Hezekiah says: This day is a day of distress(D) and rebuke and disgrace, as when children come to the moment of birth(E) and there is no strength to deliver them. 4 It may be that the Lord your God will hear the words of the field commander, whom his master, the king of Assyria, has sent to ridicule(F) the living God,(G) and that he will rebuke him for the words the Lord your God has heard.(H) Therefore pray(I) for the remnant(J) that still survives.”
