Isaiah 39

1 At that time hath Merodach-Baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah, when he heareth that he hath been sick, and is become strong.

In tempore illo misit Merodach Baladan filius Baladan rex Babylonis, libros et munera ad Ezechiam: audierat enim quod ægrotasset, et convaluisset.

2 And Hezekiah rejoiceth over them, and sheweth 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 hath been found in his treasures; there hath not been a thing in his house, and in all his dominion, that Hezekiah hath not shewed them.

Lætatus est autem super eis Ezechias, et ostendit eis cellam aromatum, et argenti, et auri, et odoramentorum, et unguenti optimi, et omnes apothecas supellectilis suæ, et universa quæ inventa sunt in thesauris eius. Non fuit verbum, quod non ostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua, et in omni potestate sua.

3 And Isaiah the prophet cometh in unto king Hezekiah, and saith unto him, 'What said these men? and whence come they unto thee?' And Hezekiah saith, 'From a land afar off they have come unto me — from Babylon.'

Introivit autem Isaias propheta ad Ezechiam regem, et dixit ei: Quid dixerunt viri isti, et unde venerunt ad te? Et dixit Ezechias: De terra longinqua venerunt ad me, de Babylone.

4 And he saith, 'What saw they in thy house?' and Hezekiah saith, 'All that [is] in my house they saw; there hath not been a thing that I have not shewed them among my treasures.'

Et dixit: Quid viderunt in domo tua? Et dixit Ezechias: Omnia, quæ in domo mea sunt, viderunt: non fuit res, quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis.

5 And Isaiah saith unto Hezekiah, 'Hear a word of Jehovah of Hosts:

Et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam: Audi verbum Domini exercituum.

6 Lo, days are coming, and borne hath been all that [is] in thy house, and that thy fathers have treasured up till this day, to Babylon; there is not left a thing, said Jehovah;

Ecce dies venient, et auferentur omnia, quæ in domo tua sunt, et quæ thesaurizaverunt patres tui usque ad diem hanc, in Babylonem: non relinquetur quidquam, dicit Dominus.

7 and of thy sons who come forth from thee, whom thou begettest, they take, and they have been eunuchs in a palace of the king of Babylon.'

Et de filiis tuis, qui exibunt de te, quos genueris, tollent, et erunt eunuchi in palatio regis Babylonis.

8 And Hezekiah saith unto Isaiah, 'Good [is] the word of Jehovah that thou hast spoken;' and he saith, 'Because there is peace and truth in my days.'

Et dixit Ezechias ad Isaiam: Bonum verbum Domini quod locutus est. Et dixit: Fiat tantum pax, et veritas in diebus meis.
