< Isaia 39 >

1 I A manawa, hoouka mai la o Merodaka-Baladana, ke keiki a Baladana, ke alii o Babulona, i mau palapala, a i makana hoi, na Hezekia, no ka mea, ua lohe oia i kona mai ana, a ua ola.
At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard about Hezekiah’s illness and recovery.
2 Olioli iho la o Hezekia ia lakou, a hoike aku la ia lakou i ka hale o kona waiwai, i ke kala, a me ke gula, a me na mea ala, a me ka mea hamo maikai, a me ka hale a pau o kona mea kaua, a me na mea a pau i loaa maloko o kona waiwai: aohe hoi mea maloko o kona hale, aole hoi ma kona aupuni a pau a Hezekia i hoike ole ai ia lakou.
And Hezekiah welcomed the envoys gladly and showed them what was in his treasure house—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, as well as his entire armory—all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his palace or in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Alaila, hele mai la o Isaia, ke kaula i ke alii, ia Hezekia, i mai la ia ia, Heaha ka keia poe kanaka i olelo mai ai? Maihea mai hoi lakou i hele mai ai iou la? I aku la o Hezekia, Mai ka aina mamao aku lakou i hele mai ai io'u nei, mai Babulona mai hoi.
Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, “Where did those men come from, and what did they say to you?” “They came to me from a distant land,” Hezekiah replied, “from Babylon.”
4 Ninau mai la no hoi ia, Heaha ka lakou i ike ai iloko o kou hale? I aku la o Hezekia, O na mea a pau iloko o ko'u hale, ua ike no lakou. Aohe mea iloko o ko'u waiwai i hoike ole ia ia lakou e au.
“What have they seen in your palace?” Isaiah asked. “They have seen everything in my palace,” answered Hezekiah. “There is nothing among my treasures that I did not show them.”
5 Alaila, i mai la o Isaia ia Hezekia, E hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova o na kaua:
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD of Hosts:
6 Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la e laweia'ku ai i Babulona na mea a pau iloko o kou hale, a me na mea a kou mau kupuna i hoahu ai, a hiki mai i keia la; aole e koe kekahi mea, wahi a Iehova.
The time will surely come when everything in your palace and all that your fathers have stored up until this day will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD.
7 A e lawe aku no lakou i kekahi o na keiki au, na mea i puka mai loko mai ou, na mea hoi au e hoohanau ai, a e lilo lakou i mea poaia ma ka halealii o ke alii o Babulona.
And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, will be taken away to be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
8 I aku la o Hezekia ia Isaia, Maikai no ka olelo a Iehova, au e olelo mai nei. I aku la hoi ia, E oia mau ana no ke kuapapanui a me ka pono i ko'u mau la.
But Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “At least there will be peace and security in my lifetime.”
