< Isaiah 39 >
1 At the same time, Merodach Baladan, the sonne of Baladan, King of Babel, sent letters, and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had bene sicke, and was recouered.
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 the treasures, the siluer, and the golde, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was founde in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his kingdome that Hezekiah shewed them not.
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 Isaiah the Prophet vnto King Hezekiah, and said vnto him, What said these men? and from whence came they to thee? And Hezekiah saide, They are come from a farre countrey vnto me, from Babel.
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 Then saide he, What haue they seene in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house haue they seene: there is nothing among my treasures, that I haue not shewed 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 saide to Hezekiah, Heare the worde of the Lord of hostes,
Ezayi di wa Ezekyas konsa: -Koute mesaj Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a voye ba ou:
6 Beholde, the dayes come, that all that is in thine house, and which thy fathers haue layed vp in store vntill this day, shall be caried to Babel: nothing shall be left, sayeth the Lord.
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 sonnes, that shall proceede out of thee, and which thou shalt beget, shall they take away, and they shall be eunuches in the palace of the King of Babel.
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 Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, The worde of the Lord is good, which thou hast spoken: and he saide, Yet let there be peace, and trueth in my dayes.
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!
