< Isaiah 39 >

1 At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters with an offering to Hezekiah, because he had news that Hezekiah had been ill, and was well again.
Nʼoge ahụ, Merodak-Baladan, nwa Baladan, bụ eze Babilọn zigaara Hezekaya akwụkwọ ozi ekele na onyinye, nʼihi na ọ nụrụ na Hezekaya rịara ọrịa ma nwe ahụ ike.
2 And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.
Hezekaya nabatara ndị ozi ahụ nke ọma gosi ha ihe ndị dị nʼụlọakụ ya, ọlaọcha, na ọlaedo, ụda dị iche iche na-esi isi ụtọ, ezigbo mmanụ oliv, ụlọ niile ebe ngwa agha ya niile dị, na ihe niile bụ akụ o nwere. Ọ dịghị ihe dị nʼụlọeze ya maọbụ nʼalaeze ya niile nke ọ na-egosighị ha.
3 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya onye amụma jekwuru eze Hezekaya jụọ ya sị, “Gịnị ka ndị ikom ndị ahụ kwuru? Ebeekwa ka ha si bịakwute gị?” Hezekaya zara sị, “Ọ bụ nʼala dị anya ka ha si bịakwute m, ha si Babilọn.”
4 And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.
Onye amụma jụrụ, “Gịnị ka ha hụrụ nʼụlọ gị?” Hezekaya zara sị, “Ihe niile nke dị nʼụlọ m ka ha hụrụ. Ọ dịghị ihe niile dị nʼụlọakụ m nke m na-egosighị ha.”
5 Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Give ear to the word of the Lord of armies:
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya sịrị Hezekaya, “Gee ntị nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
6 Truly, the days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone.
Lee, oge na-abịa mgbe a ga-eburu ihe niile dị nʼụlọeze gị, na ihe niile nke nna nna gị ha debere nʼụlọakụ ruo taa, buru ha bulaa Babilọn. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe ga-afọdụ, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
7 And your sons, even your offspring, will they take away to be unsexed servants in the house of the king of Babylon.
A ga-ebupụ ụfọdụ nʼime ụmụ gị, ndị bụ ahụ na ọbara gị, ndị a ga-amụtara gị, buru ha pụọ nʼebe dị anya, ha ga-abụ ndị onozi nʼụlọeze nke eze Babilọn.”
8 Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have said. And he said in his heart, There will be peace and quiet in my days.
Hezekaya zaghachiri, “Okwu Onyenwe anyị nke i kwuru dị mma.” Nʼihi na o chere nʼobi ya sị, “Udo na nchekwa ga-adị nʼoge ndụ m.”
