Isaiah 39
1 Soon after that, Baladan’s son Merodach-Baladan, the King of Babylon, heard a report that Hezekiah had been very sick but that he had recovered. So he wrote some notes and gave them to some messengers to take to Hezekiah, along with a gift.
Toho času poslal Merodach Baladan syn Baladanův, král Babylonský, list a dary Ezechiášovi, když uslyšel, že nemocen byv, zase ozdravěl.
2 [When the messengers arrived], Hezekiah welcomed them gladly. [Then] he showed them everything that was in his (treasure houses/places where very valuable things were kept)—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the nice-smelling [olive] oil. He also took them to see the place where they kept their soldiers’ weapons, and he showed them the other valuable things that were in the storehouses. Hezekiah showed them everything [LIT] that was in the palace or in other places [HYP].
I zradoval se z toho Ezechiáš, a ukázal jim dům klénotů svých, stříbra a zlata a vonných věcí, a olej nejvýbornější, tolikéž dům zbroje své, a cožkoli mohlo nalezeno býti v pokladích jeho. Ničeho nebylo, čehož by jim neukázal Ezechiáš v domě svém i ve všem panství svém.
3 Then I went to King Hezekiah and asked him, “Where did those men come from, and what did they want?” He replied, “They came from the far away land of Babylon.”
V tom přišel prorok Izaiáš k králi Ezechiášovi, a řekl jemu: Co pravili ti muži? A odkud přišli k tobě? I odpověděl Ezechiáš: Z země daleké přišli ke mně, z Babylona.
4 I asked him, “What did they see in your palace?” Hezekiah replied, “They saw everything. I showed them absolutely everything that I own—all my valuable things.”
Řekl ještě: Co jsou viděli v domě tvém? Odpověděl Ezechiáš: Všecko, což jest v domě mém, viděli. Ničeho není v pokladích mých, čehož bych jim neukázal.
5 Then I said to Hezekiah, “Listen to this message from the Commander of the armies of angels:
Tedy řekl Izaiáš Ezechiášovi: Slyšiž slovo Hospodina zástupů:
6 'There will be a time when everything in your palace, all the valuable things that your ancestors stored there up until the present time, will be carried away to Babylon. Yahweh says that there will be nothing left.
Aj, dnové přijdou, že odneseno bude do Babylona, cožkoli jest v domě tvém, a cožkoli nachovali otcové tvoji, až do tohoto dne; nezůstaneť ničeho, (praví Hospodin).
7 Furthermore, some of your sons will be forced to go to Babylon. They will be castrated in order that they can become servants in the palace of the king of Babylon.'”
I syny tvé také, kteříž pojdou z tebe, kteréž zplodíš, poberou, a budou komorníci při dvoře krále Babylonského.
8 Then Hezekiah replied to me, “That message from Yahweh that you have given to me is good.” He said that because he was thinking, “Even if that happens, there will be peace, and people in this country will be safe during the time that I am alive.”
Tedy řekl Ezechiáš Izaiášovi: Dobréť jest slovo Hospodinovo, kteréž jsi mluvil. (A doložil): Proto že pokoj a pravda bude za dnů mých.
