< 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.
in tempore illo misit Marodach Baladan filius Baladan rex Babylonis libros et munera ad Ezechiam audierat enim quod aegrotasset et convaluisset
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.
laetatus est autem super eis Ezechias et ostendit eis cellam aromatum et argenti et auri et odoramentorum et unguenti optimi et omnes apothecas supellectilis suae et universa quae inventa sunt in thesauris eius non fuit verbum quod non ostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua et in omni potestate sua
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.”
introiit autem Isaias propheta ad regem Ezechiam et dixit ei quid dixerunt viri isti et unde venerunt ad te et dixit Ezechias de terra longinqua venerunt ad me de Babylone
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.”
et dixit quid viderunt in domo tua et dixit Ezechias omnia quae in domo mea sunt viderunt non fuit res quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis
5 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH of Hosts:
et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam audi verbum Domini exercituum
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;
ecce dies venient et auferentur omnia quae in domo tua sunt et quae thesaurizaverunt patres tui usque ad diem hanc in Babylonem non relinquetur quicquam dicit Dominus
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.”
et de filiis tuis qui exibunt de te quos genueris tollent et erunt eunuchi in palatio regis Babylonis
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.”
et dixit Ezechias ad Isaiam bonum verbum Domini quod locutus est et dixit fiat tantum pax et veritas in diebus meis
