< Isaiah 39 >
1 In pacl sac pacna Merodach Baladan, tokosra lun acn Babylonia su wen natul Baladan, el lohng lah Tokosra Hezekiah el mas, na el supwala leta se wi mwe kite se nu sel.
At that time, Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylon, sent letters and gifts to Hezekiah. For he had heard that he had fallen ill and had recovered.
2 Hezekiah el paing mwet tutafpo inge nu in lohm sel, ac sang elos in liye lupan mwe kasrup lal inge: silver ac gold lal, mwe akyuye mwe mongo ac ono keng lal, ac kufwen mwe mweun nukewa lal. Wangin kutena ma ke nien filma lal, ku kutena acn in tokosrai lal, su el tia sang elos in liye.
And Hezekiah rejoiced over them, and he showed them the storehouses of his aromatic spices, and of the silver and gold, and of the perfumes and precious ointments, and all the repositories for his belongings, and all the things that were found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Tukun ma inge, mwet palu Isaiah el som nu yorol Tokosra Hezekiah ac siyuk, “Mwet inge tuku ya me, ac mea elos fahk nu sum ah?” Hezekiah el topuk, “Elos tuku Babylonia me, sie facl su oan yen loessula.”
Then Isaiah the prophet entered before king Hezekiah, and he said to him, “What did these men say, and from where did they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They came to me from a far away land, from Babylon.”
4 “Mea elos liye inkul sin tokosra?” “Elos liye ma nukewa. Wangin kutena ma in nien filma su nga tia sang elos liye.”
And he said, “What did they see in your house?” And Hezekiah said: “They have seen all the things that are in my house. There was nothing that I did not show them among my treasures.”
5 Na Isaiah el fahk nu sel tokosra, “LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk mu
And Isaiah said to Hezekiah: “Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
6 pacl se ac fah tuku ke ma nukewa inkul sum uh, ac ma nukewa ma mwet matu lom elos tuh elosak nwe misenge, ac fah utukla nu Babylonia. Wangin ma ac fah oan.
Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and all that your fathers have stored up, even to this day, will be taken away to Babylon. There will be nothing left behind, says the Lord.
7 Kutu sin tulik na pwaye ke fwilin tulik nutum ac fah utukla in orekla mwet eunuch tuh elos in kulansap ke inkul sin tokosra lun acn Babylonia.”
And your children, who will issue from you, whom you will produce, they will be taken away. And they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
8 Tokosra Hezekiah el eis mu kalmen ma se inge pa ac fah oasr misla ac wangin lokoalok wacl. Ouinge el fahk, “Wona kas in palu ma kom fahk nu sik sin LEUM GOD inge.”
And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the Lord which he has spoken is good.” And he said, “But let there be peace and truth in my days.”
