< Isaia 39 >

1 Ie amy zay, nampañitrike taratasy naho ravoravo am’ Iekizkia t’i Merodak-baladane ana’ i Baladane, mpanjaka’ i Bavele; amy te jinanji’e t’ie natindry vaho nibodañe.
At that time Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that he had been sick and was recovered.
2 Nifale t’Iekizkia vaho natoro’e iareo ty trañom-bara’e, ty volafoty, ty volamena, naho o fampafiriañeo, i menake sarotsey naho i trañom-pikalaña’e iabiy naho ze hene nioniñe amo vara’eo; tsy añ’anjomba’e ao ndra am-pifehea’e iaby ty tsy natoro’e.
And Hezekiah was delighted with them, and showed the embassy his treasure-house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and his whole armory, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, which Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Aa le niheo mb’ am’ Iekizkia mb’eo t’Iesaià nanao ty hoe: Ino ty nisaontsia’ indaty rey? Le aia ty nihirifa’ iareo te nimb’ ama’o? Le hoe t’Iekizkia: Boak’ am-pifelehañe tsietoitane añe t’ie nimb’ amako mb’ etoy; hirike e Bavele añe.
Then came Isaiah the prophet to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and whence did they come to thee? And Hezekiah said, They came to me from a distant country, from Babylon.
4 Le hoe re: Ino ty niisa’ iareo añ’anjomba’o ao? Nanoiñe ty hoe t’Iekizkia: Fonga niisa’ iereo ze añ’anjombako ao, tsy amo varakoo ty tsy nitoroako.
Then said he, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered: All that is in my house have they seen. There is nothing in my treasures which I have not shown them.
5 Aa le hoe t’Iesaià am’ Iekizkia: Janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà’ i Màroy:
Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, hear the word of Jehovah of hosts,
6 Toe ho avy ty andro, te hendeseñe mb’e Bavele mb’eo ze he’e añ’ anjomba’o ao naho o vara nahajan-droae’o ho ami’ty andro toio, leo raike tsy hapoke, hoe t’Iehovà.
Behold, the days shall come, when all that is in thy house, and that thy fathers have treasured up to this day, shall be carried away to Babylon. Nothing shall be left, saith Jehovah.
7 Le o anake hiboak’ ama’oo, o hasama’oo, ro hasese mb’eo ho vositse añ’ anjombam-panjaka’ i Bavele ao.
And of thy sons, which shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away, and they shall he eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
8 Le hoe ty natoi’ Iekizkia am’ Iesaià: Soa i tsara’ Iehovà nisaon­tsie’oy, ie nañereñere ty hoe; Amy te hanjo fierañerañañe naho havañonan-draho amo androkoo.
Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah, which thou hast spoken. For, said he, there shall be peace and security in my days.
