< Isaiah 39 >

1 At that time Merodach-Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present to Hezekiah; for he had heard that he had been sick and had recovered.
Nan menm epòk sa a, wa peyi Babilòn lan, Mewodak-Baladan, pitit gason Baladan, vin konnen wa Ezekyas te malad epi li refè. Li voye yon lèt ba li ansanm ak yon kado.
2 And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver and the gold, and the spices and the fine oil, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found amongst his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not shew them.
Ezekyas te kontan jès la. Li moutre mesaje wa Babilòn te voye yo tout richès li yo: pyès an ajan, lò, epis, boutèy odè, zam ansanm ak tout lòt bagay li te gen nan depo l' yo. Li fè yo wè dènye bagay li te gen lakay li ak nan tout peyi a.
3 Then came the prophet Isaiah to king Hezekiah, and said to him, What said these men? and from whence came they to thee? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country to me, from Babylon.
Lè sa a, pwofèt Ezayi al jwenn wa Ezekyas, li mande l': -Kote mesye sa yo soti? Kisa yo di ou? Ezekyas reponn: -Yo soti nan yon peyi byen lwen, yo soti nan peyi Babilòn.
4 And he said, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah said, All that is in my house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewn them.
Ezayi di l' konsa: -Kisa yo wè nan palè a? Ezekyas reponn li: -Yo wè tou sa ki nan palè a. Mwen fè yo wè dènye bagay mwen gen nan depo m' yo.
5 And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of Jehovah of hosts:
Ezayi di wa Ezekyas konsa: -Koute mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a voye ba ou:
6 Behold, days come when all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith Jehovah.
Yon lè gen pou rive. Lè sa a, y'ap pran dènye bagay ki nan palè ou la, tou sa zansèt ou yo te anpile jouk jounen jòdi a, y'ap pote yo ale nan peyi Babilòn. Yo p'ap kite anyen. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
7 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
Y'ap pran kèk nan pwòp pitit pitit ou yo, y'ap depòte yo, y'ap chatre yo pou yo ka sèvi nèg konfyans nan palè wa Babilòn lan.
8 And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah which thou hast spoken. And he said, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
Ezekyas reponn Ezayi, li di l' konsa: -Mesaj Bondye ba ou pou di m' lan gen tan bon. Men li t'ap di nan kè l': Depi pa gen boulvès, depi pa gen lagè nan peyi a tout tan m'ap viv la!
