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.
En aquel tiempo envió Merodac Baladán, hijo de Baladán, rey de Babilonia, cartas y presentes a Ezequías; porque supo que Ezequías había estado enfermo y se había curado.
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.
Alegrose de esto Ezequías y mostró a los (mensajeros) la casa de su tesoro, la plata, el oro, los perfumes, los ungüentos olorosos, toda su armería y cuanto tenía en su tesorería. No hubo nada en la casa de Ezequías, ni en su poder, que no les mostrase.
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.”
Entonces se presentó el profeta Isaías ante el rey Ezequías y le preguntó: “¿Qué han dicho esos hombres, y de dónde han llegado a ti?” Respondió Ezequías: “De un país lejano han venido a verme: de Babilonia.”
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.”
Y le preguntó: “¿Qué han visto en tu casa?” Repuso Ezequías: “Han visto todo cuanto hay en mi casa; no hay cosa entre mis tesoros que no les haya mostrado.”
5 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH of Hosts:
Mas Isaías dijo a Ezequías: “Oye la palabra de Yahvé de los ejércitos:
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;
He aquí que días vendrán en que será llevado a Babilonia todo cuanto hay en tu casa, y cuanto han atesorado tus padres hasta este día; no quedará nada, dice Yahvé.
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.”
Y de los hijos que nacieren de ti y que tú engendrares serán llevados algunos para ser eunucos en el palacio del rey de Babilonia.”
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.”
Respondió Ezequías a Isaías: “Buena es la palabra de Yahvé que tú acabas de anunciarme.” Y agregó: “Habrá, pues, paz y seguridad en mis días.”
