< Isaia 39 >
1 Tamin’ izany andro izany no nampitondran’ i Merodaka-baladana, zanak’ i Baladana, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, taratasy sy fanomezana ho an’ i Hezekia; fa efa reny fa narary izy ka sitrana.
At that time Marduk-Baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah; for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick and had recovered.
2 Ary dia faly Hezekia noho izany ka nampiseho azy ny trano fitehirizany zava-tsoa, dia volafotsy sy volamena sy zava-manitra ary menaka tsara, sy ny trano fitehirizana ny fiadiany rehetra mbamin’ izay rehetra tao amin’ ny firaketany; tsy nisy zavatra tsy nasehon’ i Hezekia azy, na ny tao an-tranony, na ny tao amin’ ny fanjakany rehetra.
Hezekiah was pleased by these things; he showed the messengers his storehouse of valuable things—the silver, the gold, the spices and precious oil, the storehouse of his weapons, and all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his kingdom, that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Dia nankany amin’ i Hezekia mpanjaka mpaminany ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana no nolazain’ ireo olona ireo, ary avy taiza nihaviany hankatỳ aminao? Ary hoy Hezekia: Nankaty amiko avy tany an-tany lavitra izy, dia avy tany Babylona.
Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and asked him, “What did these men say to you? Where did they come from?” Hezekiah said, “They came to me from the distant country of Babylon.”
4 Dia hoy izy: Ka inona avy anefa no hitany tato ananonao? Ary hoy Hezekia: Izay rehetra an-tranoko dia efa hitany avokoa; tsy nisy zavatra tsy nasehoko azy ny ao amin’ ny firaketako rehetra.
Isaiah asked, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen everything in my house. There is nothing among my valuable things that I have not shown them.”
5 Ary hoy Isaia tamin’ i Hezekia: Henoy ny tenin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro:
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Listen to the word of Yahweh of hosts:
6 Indro, avy ny andro, ka ho entina ho any Babylona izay rehetra ao an-tranonao sy izay rehetra noharin’ ny razanao ka voatahiry mandraka androany; eny, tsy hisy sisa hijanona inona na inona, hoy Jehovah.
'Look, the days are about to come when everything in your palace, the things that your ancestors stored away until this present day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says Yahweh.
7 Ary na dia terakao aza dia hisy ho entiny koa, ka ho tandonaka any amin’ ny lapan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ireo.
The sons born from you, whom you yourself have fathered—they will take them away, and they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.'”
8 Dia hoy Hezekia tamin’ Isaia: Tsara ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nolazainao. Ary hoy koa izy: Eny, hisy fiadanana amin’ ny androko handry fahizay.
Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of Yahweh that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “There will be peace and stability in my days.”
