Isaiah 39
1 In that tyme Marodach Baladan, the sone of Baladam, the kyng of Babiloyne, sente bookis and yiftis to Ezechie; for he hadde herd, that Ezechie hadde be sijk, and was rekyuerid.
U to vrijeme posla babilonski kralj Merodak Baladan, sin Baladanov, pisma s darom Ezekiji, jer bijaše čuo da se razbolio i ozdravio.
2 Forsothe Ezechie was glad on hem, and schewide to hem the selle of swete smellynge spices, and of siluer, and of gold, and of smellynge thingis, and of best oynement, and alle the schoppis of his purtenaunce of houshold, and alle thingis that weren foundun in hise tresours; no word was, which Ezechie schewide not to hem in his hous, and in al his power.
Ezekija se obradova tome i pokaza poslanicima svoju riznicu - srebro, zlato, miomirise i mirisavo ulje - svoju oružanu i sve što je bilo u skladištima. Nije bilo ničega u njegovu dvoru i u svemu njegovu gospodarstvu što im Ezekija nije pokazao.
3 Sotheli Ysaie, the prophete, entride to kyng Ezechie, and seide to hym, What seiden thes men, and fro whennus camen thei to thee? And Ezechie seide, Fro a fer lond thei camen to me, fro Babiloyne.
Tada prorok Izaija dođe kralju Ezekiji i upita ga: “Što su rekli ti ljudi i odakle su došli k tebi?” Ezekija odgovori: “Došli su iz daleke zemlje, iz Babilona.”
4 And Ysaie seide, What siyen thei in thin hous? And Ezechie seide, Thei sien alle thingis that ben in myn hous; no thing was in my tresours, which Y schewide not to hem.
Izaija upita dalje: “Što su vidjeli u tvojem dvoru?” Ezekija odgovori: “Vidjeli su sve što je u mojem dvoru; nema u mojim skladištima ničega što im nisam pokazao.”
5 And Ysaie seide to Ezechie, Here thou the word of the Lord of oostis.
Tad Izaija reče Ezekiji: “Čuj riječ Jahve nad Vojskama:
6 Lo! daies schulen come, and alle thingis that ben in thin hous, and whiche thingis thi fadris tresoriden til to this dai, schulen be takun awei in to Babiloyne; not ony thing schal be left, seith the Lord.
'Evo dolaze dani kada će sve što je u tvojem dvoru, sve što su tvoji oci nakupili do danas, biti odneseno u Babilon. Ništa neće ostati,' kaže Jahve.
7 And thei schulen take of thi sones, that schulen go out of thee, whiche thou schalt gendre; and thei schulen be onest seruauntis and chast in the paleis of the kyng of Babiloyne.
'A od sinova koji poteku od tebe, koji ti se rode, neke će uzeti da budu uškopljeni dvorani babilonskoga kralja.'”
8 And Ezechie seide to Ysaie, The word of the Lord is good, which he spak. And Ezechie seide, Pees and treuthe be maad oneli in my daies.
Ezekija odgovori Izaiji: “Povoljna je riječ koju ti je Jahve objavio.” A mislio je: “Bit će barem mira i sigurnosti za moga života.”
