< 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.
Ní àkókò náà ni Merodaki-Baladani ọmọ Baladani ọba Babeli fi ìwé àti ẹ̀bùn ránṣẹ́ sí Hesekiah, nítorí ó gbọ́ pé ó ṣàìsàn ó sì gbádùn.
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].
Hesekiah gba àwọn ikọ̀ yìí tayọ̀tayọ̀, ó sì fi àwọn nǹkan tí ó wà nínú yàrá ìkẹ́rù sí mọ́ hàn wọ́n—fàdákà, wúrà, ohun olóòórùn dídùn, òróró dídára, gbogbo nǹkan ogun rẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wà nínú ìṣúra rẹ̀ kò sí ohunkóhun tí ó wà nínú ààfin rẹ̀ tàbí ní ìjọba rẹ̀ tí Hesekiah kò fihàn wọ́n.
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.”
Lẹ́yìn náà wòlíì Isaiah lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Hesekiah ọba ó sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí wí, níbo ni wọ́n sì ti wá?” “Láti ilẹ̀ jíjìnnà,” ni èsì Hesekiah. “Wọ́n wá sọ́dọ̀ mi láti Babeli.”
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.”
Wòlíì náà sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni wọ́n rí nínú ààfin rẹ?” Hesekiah si dáhùn pe, “Wọ́n rí gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú ààfin mi. Kò sí ohun kankan nínú ìṣúra mi tí èmi kò fihàn wọ́n.”
5 Then I said to Hezekiah, “Listen to this message from the Commander of the armies of angels:
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Isaiah sọ fún Hesekiah pé, “Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun.
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.
Àsìkò ń bọ̀ nítòótọ́ nígbà tí gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú ààfin rẹ, àti ohun gbogbo tí àwọn baba rẹ ti kójọ títí di ọjọ́ òní yóò di kíkó lọ sí Babeli. Ohun kankan kò ní ṣẹ́kù ni Olúwa wí.
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.'”
Àti díẹ̀ nínú àwọn àrọ́mọdọ́mọ rẹ, àwọn ẹ̀jẹ̀ àti ẹran-ara rẹ tí a ó bí fún ọ ni a ó kó lọ, wọn yóò sì di ìwẹ̀fà nínú ààfin ọba Babeli.”
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.”
Hesekiah wí fún Isaiah pé, “Rere ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ìwọ sọ.” Nítorí ó rò nínú ara rẹ̀ pé, “Àlàáfíà àti ààbò yóò wà ní ìgbà ayé tèmi.”
