< Isaiah 39 >
1 At the time that he sent Merodach-Baladan [the] son of Baladan [the] king of Babylon letters and a gift to Hezekiah and he had heard that he had been sick and he was strong.
Katika mda ule Merodaki mtoto wa Baladani, mfalme wa Babeli, alituma zawadi na barua kwa Hezekia; maana alisikia Hezekia alikuwa anaumwa na amepona.
2 And he was pleased on them Hezekiah and he showed them [the] house of (treasure his *Q(K)*) the silver and the gold and the spices and - the oil good and all [the] house of weapons his and all that it was found in storehouses his not it was anything which not he showed them Hezekiah in house his and in all realm his.
Hezekia alifurahishwa na hivi vitu; alimuonyesha mjumbe nyumba ya ghala la vitu vya thamani- vitu kama fedha, dhahabu, viungo, na mafuta ya thamani, ghala la kuwekea silaha zake, na vitu vyote vilivyopatikana kwenye stoo yake. Hapakuwa na kitu katika nyumba yake, wala ufalme wake wote, Hezekia hakuwaonyesha wao.
3 And he came Isaiah the prophet to the king Hezekiah and he said to him what? did they say - the men these and from where? are they coming to you and he said Hezekiah from a land distant they have come to me from Babylon.
Basi Isaya nabii alikuja kwa mfalme Hezekia na kumuuliza, ''Je watu hawa wamekuambia nini? wametoka wapi?, ''Wamekuja kwangu kutoka mbali nchi ya Babeli.''
4 And he said what? did they see in house your and he said Hezekiah all that [is] in house my they saw not it was anything which not I showed them in storehouses my.
Isaya akamuuliza je ni vitu gani walivyoviona katika nyumba yako? Hezekia akajibu, ''Wameona kila kitu katika nyumba nyangu. Hakuna kitu miongoni mwa vitu vyangu vya thamani ambavyo sijawaonyesha.''
5 And he said Isaiah to Hezekiah hear [the] word of Yahweh of hosts.
Basi Isaya akamwambia Hezekia, ''Sikiliza neno la Yahwe wa majeshi:
6 Here! days [are] coming and it will be carried off - all that [is] in house your and that they stored up ancestors your until the day this Babylon not it will remain anything he says Yahweh.
'Tazama siku inakaribia kuja pale kila kitu katika nyumba yako, vitu ambavyo mababu zako wamevihifadhi mbali mpaka mda huu wa sasa Vitapelekwa Babeli. Hakuna kitakachobakizwa, asema Yahwe.
7 And some of own descendants your who they will come forth from you whom you will father people will take and they will be eunuchs in [the] palace of [the] king of Babylon.
Na watoto watazaliwa kutoka kwako, ambao wewe mwenyewe utawazaa- watachukuliwa mbali, na watakuwa matoashi katika jumba la mfalme wa Babeli.''
8 And he said Hezekiah to Isaiah [is] good [the] word of Yahweh which you have spoken and he said that it will be peace and stability in days my.
Basi Hezekia akamwambia Isaya, ''Neno la Yahwe alilolizunumza ni zuri.'' Maana alifikiria, ''Patakuwa na amani na utulivu katika siku zangu.''
