Isaiah 39
1 At the same time Merodach-baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, because he had heard that Hezekiah was sick and had recovered.
Sa mga oras na iyon si Merodac Baladan anak ni Baladan, hari ng Babylonia, ay nagpadala ng mga liham at regalo kay Hezekias; dahil narinig niya na nagkasakit si Hezekias at gumaling.
2 Hezekiah happily welcomed the visitors and showed them what he had in his treasury—all the silver, the gold, the spices, and the expensive oils. He also showed them his whole armory and all that he had in his storehouses. In fact there wasn't anything in his palace or in the whole of his kingdom that Hezekiah didn't show them.
Si Hezekias ay nagalak sa mga bagay na ito; ipinakita niya sa mensahero ang kanyang imbakan ng mga mahahalagang bagay - ang pilak, ang ginto, ang pabango at mamahaling langis. ang imbakan ng kanyang mga sandata, at lahat ng matatagpuan sa kaniyang mga imbakan. Wala siyang hindi ipinakita sa kanila, sa kaniyang tahanan, ni sa kaniyang kaharian.
3 Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked him, “Where did those men come from, and what did they tell you?” “They came to see me from a long way away, from Babylon,” Hezekiah replied.
Pagkatapos lumapit si Isaias ang propeta kay Haring Hezekias at tinanong siya, “Ano ang sinabi sa iyo ng mga taong ito? Saan sila nagmula?” Sumagot si Hezekias, “Naparito sila sa akin mula sa malayong bansa ng Babilonia.”
4 “What did they see in your palace?” Isaiah asked. “They saw everything in my palace,” replied Hezekiah. “There wasn't anything in all my storehouses I didn't show them.”
Tinanong ni Isaias, “Ano ang nakita nila sa tahanan mo?” Sagot ni Hezekias, “Nakita nilang ang lahat sa tahanan ko. Walang mahalagang bagay ang hindi ko ipinakita sa kanila.”
5 Isaiah told Hezekiah, “Listen to what the Lord says:
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Isaias kay Hezekias, “Makinig ka sa salita ni Yahweh ng mga hukbo:
6 You can be certain that the time is coming when everything in your palace, and everything that your forefathers have saved up until now, will be taken away to Babylon. There will be nothing left, says the Lord.
'Masdan mo, darating ang araw na ang lahat sa iyong kaharian, mga bagay na itinabi ng iyong ninuno hanggang sa mga panahong ito, ay dadalahin sa Babilonia. Walang matitira, sabi ni Yahweh.
7 Some of your sons, your own offspring, will be taken to serve as eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
At ang mga lalaking nagmula sa iyo, na ikaw mismo ang ama - sila ay kukunin palayo, at sila ay magiging mga eunuko sa palasyo ng hari ng Babilonia.”'
8 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The message from the Lord that you have told me is fine.” For he said to himself, “There'll definitely be peace and safety in my lifetime.”
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Hezekias kay Isaias, “Ang sinabi ni Yahweh na iyong binanggit ay mabuti.” Dahil kanyang inakala, “Magkakaroon ng kapayapaan at tatatag ang aking mga araw.”
