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 heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.

Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Marduk Baladan, si nye Babilonia fia Baladan ƒe vi la dɔ amewo ɖa be woatsɔ agbalẽ kple nunana ayi na Hezekia elabena ese eƒe dɔdzedze kple hayahaya.

2 And Hezekiah was glad of them, and showed them his treasure-house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures; there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.

Hezekia xɔ ame dɔdɔawo kple dzidzɔ, eye wòtsɔ nu siwo katã le eƒe nudzraɖoƒe la fia wo; esiwo nye klosalo, sika, atike ʋeʋĩwo, ami tɔxɛwo, aʋawɔnu siwo katã le esi kple nu sia nu si le eƒe kesinɔnuwo dzraɖoƒe. Naneke mele fiasã alo fiaɖuƒe blibo la me si Hezekia mefia wo o.

3 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him: 'What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee?' And Hezekiah said: 'They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.'

Emegbe la, Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya yi ɖe Fia Hezekia gbɔ ɖabiae be, “Nya ka ame siawo gblɔ, eye afi ka wotso?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Wotso anyigba didi aɖe dzi, tso keke Babilonia.”

4 Then said he: 'What have they seen in thy house?' And Hezekiah answered: 'All that is in my house have they seen; there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.'

Nyagblɔɖila la biae be, “Nu ka wokpɔ le wò fiasã me?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Wokpɔ nu sia nu si le nye fiasã la me. Naneke mele nye kesinɔnuwo dome si nyemefia wo o.”

5 Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah: 'Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:

Tete Yesaya gblɔ na Hezekia be, “Ɖo to nya si Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔ.

6 Behold, the days come, that all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

Ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esiwo me nu sia nu si le wò fiasã me, kpe ɖe nu siwo katã fofowòwo dzra ɖo ŋu la, woalɔ wo katã ayi ɖe Babilonia. Naneke masusɔ o. Yehowae gblɔe.

7 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be officers in the palace of the king of Babylon.'

Wò dzidzimevi aɖewo kple vi siwo wodzi na wò ŋutɔ hã, woakplɔ wo adzoe, eye woazu ŋutsu tata siwo anye aƒedzikpɔlawo le Babilonia fia ƒe fiasã me.”

8 Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah: 'Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken.' He said moreover: 'If but there shall be peace and truth in my days.'

Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe nya siwo nègblɔ la nyo,” elabena esusu be, “Ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ anɔ yeƒe agbemeŋkekewo me.”
