11 Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.
11 Ndipo Eliakimu, mwana wa Hilkia, na Shebna, na Yoa, wakamwambia yule amiri, Tafadhali, sema na watumishi wako kwa lugha ya Kiashuri; maana tunaifahamu; wala usiseme nasi kwa lugha ya Kiyahudi, masikioni mwa watu wote walio ukutani.
