< Yesaya 39 >
1 Sekitar waktu itu, raja Babel, yaitu Merodakh Baladan anak Baladan, mendengar bahwa Raja Hizkia baru sembuh dari sakit. Maka ia mengutus orang untuk membawa surat dan hadiah kepada Hizkia.
At the time that he sent Merodach-Baladan [the] son of Baladan [the] king of Babylon letters and a gift to Hezekiah and he had heard that he had been sick and he was strong.
2 Hizkia menyambut para utusan itu dengan senang hati dan menunjukkan kepada mereka segala kekayaannya, yaitu emas dan perak, rempah-rempah dan minyak wangi, dan seluruh perlengkapan tentaranya. Tak ada sesuatu pun di istana dan di seluruh kerajaannya yang tidak diperlihatkannya kepada mereka.
And he was pleased on them Hezekiah and he showed them [the] house of (treasure his *Q(K)*) the silver and the gold and the spices and - the oil good and all [the] house of weapons his and all that it was found in storehouses his not it was anything which not he showed them Hezekiah in house his and in all realm his.
3 Kemudian Nabi Yesaya menghadap Raja Hizkia dan bertanya, "Dari mana orang-orang itu? Apa kata mereka?" Hizkia menjawab, "Mereka dari Babel, negeri yang jauh."
And he came Isaiah the prophet to the king Hezekiah and he said to him what? did they say - the men these and from where? are they coming to you and he said Hezekiah from a land distant they have come to me from Babylon.
4 "Mereka melihat apa di istana?" tanya Yesaya lagi. "Segala-galanya," jawab Hizkia. "Tidak ada barang di dalam perbendaharaan istana yang tidak kuperlihatkan kepada mereka."
And he said what? did they see in house your and he said Hezekiah all that [is] in house my they saw not it was anything which not I showed them in storehouses my.
5 Lalu Yesaya berkata kepada raja, "TUHAN Yang Mahakuasa berkata,
And he said Isaiah to Hezekiah hear [the] word of Yahweh of hosts.
6 'Akan tiba saatnya segala kekayaan di dalam istanamu, dan yang telah dikumpulkan leluhurmu sampai hari ini, diangkut ke Babel. Tidak ada yang akan tertinggal.
Here! days [are] coming and it will be carried off - all that [is] in house your and that they stored up ancestors your until the day this Babylon not it will remain anything he says Yahweh.
7 Dari anak cucumu ada yang akan diambil dan dijadikan pegawai istana untuk melayani raja Babel.'"
And some of own descendants your who they will come forth from you whom you will father people will take and they will be eunuchs in [the] palace of [the] king of Babylon.
8 Raja Hizkia menjawab, "Baik juga pesan TUHAN yang kausampaikan kepadaku." Ia menjawab begitu karena berpikir: "Asal kerajaanku tetap aman dan damai selama aku hidup."
And he said Hezekiah to Isaiah [is] good [the] word of Yahweh which you have spoken and he said that it will be peace and stability in days my.
