Книга пророка Исаии 39

1 В то время посла Меродах Валадан сын Валаданов, царь Вавилонский, писания и послы и дары Езекии: слыша бо, яко болел есть до смерти и воста.

At that time Merodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and had recovered.

2 И обрадовася о них Езекиа радостию великою, и показа им дом ароматов и мира, и стакти и фимиама, и сребра и злата, и вся домы сосудов сокровищных, и вся елика бяху во сокровищих его: и не оста ничтоже, егоже не показа им Езекиа в дому своем и во всей области своей.

And Hezekiah was glad of them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasuries: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.

3 И прииде Исаиа пророк ко Езекии царю и рече к нему: что глаголют сии мужие, и откуду приидоша к тебе? И рече Езекиа: от земли далекия приидоша ко мне, от Вавилона.

Then came Isaiah the prophet to king Hezekiah, and said to him, What said these men? and from where came they to thee? And Hezekiah said, They have come to me, from a far country, even from Babylon.

4 И рече Исаиа: что видеша в дому твоем? И рече Езекиа: вся, елика в дому моем, видеша, и несть в дому моем, егоже бы не видели, но и яже в сокровищих моих.

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 among my treasures that I have not showed them.

5 И рече ему Исаиа: послушай словесе Господа Саваофа:

Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:

6 се, дние грядут, глаголет Господь, и возмут вся, яже в дому твоем, и елика собраша отцы твои даже до дне сего, в Вавилон прейдут, и ничесоже оставят:

Behold, the days come, that all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

7 рече Господь, яко и от чад твоих, ихже родил еси, поймут и сотворят каженики в дому царя Вавилонска.

And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

8 И рече Езекиа ко Исаии: благо слово Господне, еже глагола: да будет ныне мир и правда бо дни моя.

Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
