< Isaiah 39 >

1 At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.
In tempore illo misit Merodach Baladan filius Baladan rex Babylonis, libros et munera ad Ezechiam: audierat enim quod ægrotasset, et convaluisset.
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 precious ointment, 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 shewed them not.
Lætatus est autem super eis Ezechias, et ostendit eis cellam aromatum, et argenti, et auri, et odoramentorum, et unguenti optimi, et omnes apothecas supellectilis suæ, et universa quæ inventa sunt in thesauris eius. Non fuit verbum, quod non ostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua, et in omni potestate sua.
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.
Introivit autem Isaias propheta ad Ezechiam regem, et dixit ei: Quid dixerunt viri isti, et unde venerunt ad te? Et dixit Ezechias: De terra longinqua venerunt ad me, de Babylone.
4 Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that [is] in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
Et dixit: Quid viderunt in domo tua? Et dixit Ezechias: Omnia, quæ in domo mea sunt, viderunt: non fuit res, quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis.
5 Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:
Et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam: Audi verbum Domini exercituum.
6 Behold, the days come, that all that [is] in thine 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.
Ecce dies venient, et auferentur omnia, quæ in domo tua sunt, et quæ thesaurizaverunt patres tui usque ad diem hanc, in Babylonem: non relinquetur quidquam, dicit Dominus.
7 And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
Et de filiis tuis, qui exibunt de te, quos genueris, tollent, et erunt eunuchi in palatio regis Babylonis.
8 Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good [is] the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
Et dixit Ezechias ad Isaiam: Bonum verbum Domini quod locutus est. Et dixit: Fiat tantum pax, et veritas in diebus meis.
