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 Marduk-Baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah; for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick and had 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.
Hezekiah was pleased by these things; he showed the messengers his storehouse of valuable things—the silver, the gold, the spices and precious oil, the storehouse of his weapons, and all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his kingdom, 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 asked him, “What did these men say to you? Where did they come from?” Hezekiah said, “They came to me from the distant country of 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.”
Isaiah asked, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen everything in my house. There is nothing among my valuable things that I have not shown them.”
5 Konsa, Ésaïe te di a Ézéchias: “Tande pawòl SENYÈ dèzame yo,
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Listen to the word of Yahweh 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.
'Look, the days are about to come when everything in your palace, the things that your ancestors stored away until this present day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says Yahweh.
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.’”
The sons born from you, whom you yourself have fathered—they will take them away, and they will become 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 Yahweh that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “There will be peace and stability in my days.”
