Contextual Overview

¹ And it came to pass, when King Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, - and covered himself with sackcloth, and entered the house of Yahweh; ² and sent Eliakim who was over the household and Shebna the scribe and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, - unto Isaiah the prophet, Son of Amoz; ³ and they said unto him, Thus, saith Hezekiah, A day of distress and rebuke and reviling, is this day, - For children are come to the birth, and, strength, is there none to bring forth. ⁴ It may be, that Yahweh thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh whom the king of Assyria his lord, hath sent to reproach a Living God, and will rebuke the words which Yahweh thy God hath heard, - Wherefore lift thou up a prayer, for the remnant that remaineth. ⁵ So the servants of King Hezekiah came unto Isaiah. ⁶ And Isaiah said unto them, Thus, shall ye, surely say, unto your lord, - Thus, saith Yahweh - Be not thou afraid because of the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have reviled, Me. ⁷ Behold me! about to let go against him a blast of alarm, and when he heareth the report, then will lie return to his own country, - and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah. And delivered the above message to him from the king: these servants are mentioned

Isaiah 37:2.
