Ezayi 39

1 Nan lè sa a Merodac-Baladan, fis a Baladan nan, wa Babylon nan, te voye lèt ak yon kado bay Ézéchias, paske li te tande ke li te malad, e li te refè.

At that time Merodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.

2 Ézéchias te kontan e te montre yo tout trezò lakay li yo; ajan ak lò a, epis ak lwil presye, tout zam li yo ak tout sa ki te la nan trezò a. Pa t gen anyen lakay li a ni nan tout wayòm li an ke Ézéchias pa t montre yo.

And Hezekiah was glad of them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and all the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.

3 Alò, Ésaïe, pwofèt la, te vin kote Wa Ézéchias. Li te di l: “Se kisa mesye sa yo te di, e se kibò yo sòti pou vin kote nou la a?” Ézéchias te di: “Yo vin kote m soti nan yon peyi lwen, Babylone.”

Then Isaiah the prophet came to king Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say? And from where did they come to thee? And Hezekiah said, They have come from a far country to me, even from Babylon.

4 Li te di: “Se kisa yo te wè lakay ou a?” Ézéchias te reponn: “Yo te wè tout sa ki lakay mwen an. Nanpwen anyen pami trezò mwen yo ke mwen pa t montre yo.”

Then he said, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered, They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.

5 Konsa, Ésaïe te di a Ézéchias: “Tande pawòl SENYÈ dèzame yo,

Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of Jehovah of hosts:

6 ‘Gade byen, jou yo ap vini lè tout sa ki lakay ou ak tout sa ke papa ou yo te mete nan depo, jis rive nan jodi a, va pote ale Babylone. Anyen p ap rete’, pale SENYÈ a.

Behold, the days are coming, when all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Nothing shall be left, says Jehovah.

7 ‘Va gen kèk nan fis ou yo ki sòti nan ou menm, ke ou va fè. Yo va pote ale, e yo va vin fè ofisye nan palè a wa Babylon nan.’”

And of thy sons who shall issue from thee, whom thou shall beget, they shall take away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

8 Ézéchias te di a Ésaïe: “Pawòl SENYÈ ke ou te pale a, bon.” Paske li te panse: “Ap gen lapè ak verite nan jou mwen yo.”

Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, The word of Jehovah which thou have spoken is good. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
