καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ελιακιμ ὁ τοῦ Χελκιου ὁ οἰκονόμος καὶ Σομνας ὁ γραμματεὺς τῆς δυνάμεως καὶ Ιωαχ ὁ τοῦ Ασαφ ὁ ὑπομνηματογράφος πρὸς Εζεκιαν ἐσχισμένοι τοὺς χιτῶνας καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν αὐτῷ τοὺς λόγους Ραψακου
Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah the steward, and Somnas the scribe of the force, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their garments torn and reported to him the words of Rabshakeh.
The scene closes with grief and transmission. Torn garments show the weight of the blasphemous threat, and the report prepares the king's religious response in the next chapter.
