< 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.
På den tiden sände MerodachBaladan, Baladans son, Konungen i Babel, bref och skänker till Hiskia; ty han hade hört, att han hade varit sjuk, och var helbregda vorden igen.
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.
Då fröjdade sig Hiskia, och viste dem fataburen, silfver och guld, speceri, kostelig salvo, och all sin tyghus, och all den skatt, som han hade. Ingen ting var, som Hiskia dem icke viste, i sino huse och i sitt våld.
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.”
Då kom Propheten Esaia till Konungen Hiskia, och sade till honom: Hvad säga dessa männerna, och hvadan komma de till dig? Hiskia sade: De komma fjerranefter till mig, nämliga ifrå Babel.
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.”
Men han sade: Hvad hafva de sett uti dino huse? Hiskia sade: Allt det i mino huse är, hafva de sett, och intet är i mina håfvor, det jag dem icke vist hafver.
5 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH of Hosts:
Och Esaia sade till Hiskia: Hör Herrans Zebaoths ord:
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;
Si, den tid kommer, att allt det uti dino huse är, och hvad dine fäder församlat hafva, intill denna dag, skall till Babel bortfördt varda, så att intet skall qvart blifva, säger Herren.
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.”
Dertill skola de taga din barn, som af dig komma skola, och du födandes varder, och de måste vara kamererare i Konungens gård i Babel.
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.”
Och Hiskia sade till Esaia: Herrans ord är godt, det du talar; och sade: Vare dock frid och trohet i mina dagar.
