Exegesis
The prepositional phrase el {אֶל־ | ʾel} + Chizqiyahu {חִזְקִיָּהוּ | ḥizqiyyāhû} melek Yehudah {מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה | mēleḵ yəhūdāh} identifies the royal addressee.
The prohibition is formed by al {אַל־ | ʾal} plus the hiphil imperfect yashshi’akh {יַשִּׁאֲךָ | yaššāʾkā} ‘let deceive you’, emphasizing causative warning.
