< 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, the son of Baladan king of Babylon, sent letters and presents to Ezechias: for he had heard that he had been sick and was recovered.
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 Ezechias rejoiced at their coming, and he shewed them the storehouses of his aromatical spices, and of the silver, and of the gold, and of the sweet odours, and of the precious ointment, and all the storehouses of his furniture, and all things that were found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion that Ezechias shewed them not.
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 Isaias the prophet came to king Ezechias, and said to him: What said these men, and from whence came they to thee? And Ezechias said: From a far country they came to me, 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.
And he said: What saw they in thy house? And Ezechias said: All things that are in my house have they seen, there was not any thing which I have not shewn them in my treasures.
5 Alaila, i mai la o Isaia ia Hezekia, E hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova o na kaua:
And Isaias said to Ezechias: Rear 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.
Behold the days shall come, that all that is in thy house, and that thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried away into Babylon: there shall not any thing be left, saith 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 of thy children, that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, they shall take away, and they shall 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.
And Ezechias said to Isaias: The word of the Lord, which he hath spoken, is good. And he said: Only let peace and truth be in my days.
