< Isaiah 39 >
1 At that time, Merodach-Baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, has sent letters and a present to Hezekiah when he hears that he has been sick and has become strong.
那时,巴比伦王巴拉但的儿子米罗达·巴拉但听见希西家病而痊愈,就送书信和礼物给他。
2 And Hezekiah rejoices over them, and shows them the house of his spices, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the good ointment, and all the house of his vessels, and all that has been found in his treasures; there has not been a thing in his house, and in all his dominion, that Hezekiah has not showed them.
希西家喜欢见使者,就把自己宝库的金子、银子、香料、贵重的膏油,和他武库的一切军器,并所有的财宝都给他们看;他家中和全国之内,希西家没有一样不给他们看的。
3 And Isaiah the prophet comes to King Hezekiah and says to him, “What did these men say? And from where do they come to you?” And Hezekiah says, “They have come to me from a far-off land—from Babylon.”
于是先知以赛亚来见希西家王,问他说:“这些人说什么?他们从哪里来见你?”希西家说:“他们从远方的巴比伦来见我。”
4 And he says, “What did they see in your house?” And Hezekiah says, “They saw all that [is] in my house; there has not been a thing that I have not showed them among my treasures.”
以赛亚说:“他们在你家里看见了什么?”希西家说:“凡我家中所有的,他们都看见了;我财宝中没有一样不给他们看的。”
5 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH of Hosts:
以赛亚对希西家说:“你要听万军之耶和华的话:
6 Behold, days are coming, and all that [is] in your house, and that your fathers have treasured up until this day, has been carried to Babylon; there is not a thing left, said YHWH;
日子必到,凡你家里所有的,并你列祖积蓄到如今的,都要被掳到巴比伦去,不留下一样;这是耶和华说的。
7 and of your sons who come forth from you, whom you beget, they take, and they have been eunuchs in a palace of the king of Babylon.”
并且从你本身所生的众子,其中必有被掳去、在巴比伦王宫里当太监的。”
8 And Hezekiah says to Isaiah, “The word of YHWH that you have spoken [is] good”; and he says, “Because there is peace and truth in my days.”
希西家对以赛亚说:“你所说耶和华的话甚好,因为在我的年日中必有太平和稳固的景况。”
