< Jesajas 39 >

1 Tanī laikā Merodaks BalAdans, BalAdana dēls, Bābeles ķēniņš, sūtīja grāmatas un dāvanas pie Hizkijas, jo tas bija dzirdējis, ka viņš bija slims bijis un atkal palicis vesels.
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 Un Hizkija priecājās par tiem un tiem rādīja savu mantas namu, to sudrabu un zeltu, tās dārgās zāles un to smalko eļļu un visu savu bruņu namu un visu, kas viņa mantās bija; nekas nebija visā viņa namā un visā viņa valstī, ko Hizkija tiem nebūtu rādījis.
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 Tad pravietis Jesaja nāca pie ķēniņa Hizkijas un uz to sacīja: Ko šie vīri sacījuši un no kurienes tie pie tevis nākuši? Un Hizkija sacīja: Tie no tālas zemes pie manis nākuši, no Bābeles.
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 Un viņš sacīja: Ko tie laba redzējuši tavā namā? Un Hizkija sacīja: Tie visu redzējuši, kas manā namā, nekā nav no manām mantām, ko es tiem nebūtu rādījis.
“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 Tad Jesaja sacīja uz Hizkiju: Klausies Tā Kunga Cebaot vārdu.
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD of Hosts:
6 Redzi, dienas nāks, ka viss, kas ir tavā namā, un ko tavi tēvi līdz šai dienai sakrājuši, taps novests uz Bābeli, nekas netaps atlicināts, saka Tas Kungs.
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 Un no taviem dēliem, kas no tevis nāks, ko tu dzemdināsi, viņi ņems, ka tie būs par kambar junkuriem Bābeles ķēniņa pilī.
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 Un Hizkija sacīja uz Jesaju: Tā Kunga vārds ir labs, ko tu runājis. Un viņš sacīja: Kad tik miers un drošība pastāv manā laikā.
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.”
