Tetapi juru minuman agung berkata kepada mereka: "Adakah tuanku mengutus aku untuk mengucapkan perkataan-perkataan ini hanya kepada tuanmu dan kepadamu saja? Bukankah juga kepada orang-orang yang duduk di atas tembok, yang memakan tahinya dan meminum air kencingnya bersama-sama dengan kamu?"
Tetapi kata Rabsaki kepadanya: Sungguhkah tuanku sudah menyuruhkan aku menyampaikan segala perkataan ini kepada tuanmu dan kepada kamu? Bukankah kepada segala orang yang duduk di atas dewala juga, sebab serta dengan kamu mereka itu kelak akan makan tahinya dan minum air kencingnya.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
That they may eat ... - “My master hath sent me,” the Rab-shakeh seems to say, “to these men, whom I see stationed on the wall to defend the place and bear the last extremities of a prolonged siege - these men on whom its worst evils will fall, and who have therefore the greatest interest in avoiding it by a timely surrender.” He expresses the evils by a strong coarse phrase, suited to the rude soldiery, and well calculated to rouse their feelings. The author of Chronicles has softened down the words 2 Chronicles 32:11.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 27. That they may eat their own dung — That they may be duly apprised, if they hold on Hezekiah's side, Jerusalem shall be most straitly besieged, and they be reduced to such a state of famine as to be obliged to eat their own excrements.
