< Isaias 39 >
1 Sa mga oras na iyon si Merodac Baladan anak ni Baladan, hari ng Babylonia, ay nagpadala ng mga liham at regalo kay Hezekias; dahil narinig niya na nagkasakit si Hezekias at gumaling.
At that time Marodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylonia, sent letters and ambassadors and gifts to Ezekias: for he had heard that he had been sick [even] to death, and was recovered.
2 Si Hezekias ay nagalak sa mga bagay na ito; ipinakita niya sa mensahero ang kanyang imbakan ng mga mahahalagang bagay - ang pilak, ang ginto, ang pabango at mamahaling langis. ang imbakan ng kanyang mga sandata, at lahat ng matatagpuan sa kaniyang mga imbakan. Wala siyang hindi ipinakita sa kanila, sa kaniyang tahanan, ni sa kaniyang kaharian.
And Ezekias was glad of their coming, and he shewed them the house of [his] spices, and of silver, and gold, and myrrh, and incense, and ointment, and all the houses of his treasures, and all that he had in his stores: and there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, which Ezekias did not shew.
3 Pagkatapos lumapit si Isaias ang propeta kay Haring Hezekias at tinanong siya, “Ano ang sinabi sa iyo ng mga taong ito? Saan sila nagmula?” Sumagot si Hezekias, “Naparito sila sa akin mula sa malayong bansa ng Babilonia.”
And Esaias the prophet came to king Ezekias, and said to him, What say these men? and whence came they to thee? and Ezekias said, They are come to me from a land afar off, from Babylon.
4 Tinanong ni Isaias, “Ano ang nakita nila sa tahanan mo?” Sagot ni Hezekias, “Nakita nilang ang lahat sa tahanan ko. Walang mahalagang bagay ang hindi ko ipinakita sa kanila.”
And Esaias said, What have they seen in thine house? and Ezekias said, They have seen everything in my house; and there is nothing in my house which they have not seen: yea, also the [possessions] in my treasuries.
5 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Isaias kay Hezekias, “Makinig ka sa salita ni Yahweh ng mga hukbo:
And Esaias said to him, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
6 'Masdan mo, darating ang araw na ang lahat sa iyong kaharian, mga bagay na itinabi ng iyong ninuno hanggang sa mga panahong ito, ay dadalahin sa Babilonia. Walang matitira, sabi ni Yahweh.
Behold, the days come, when they shall take all the [things that are] in thine house, and all that thy fathers have gathered until this day, shall go to Babylon; and they shall not leave anything at all: and God hath said,
7 At ang mga lalaking nagmula sa iyo, na ikaw mismo ang ama - sila ay kukunin palayo, at sila ay magiging mga eunuko sa palasyo ng hari ng Babilonia.”'
that they shall take also of thy children whom thou shalt beget; and they shall make them eunuchs in the house of the king of the Babylonians.
8 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Hezekias kay Isaias, “Ang sinabi ni Yahweh na iyong binanggit ay mabuti.” Dahil kanyang inakala, “Magkakaroon ng kapayapaan at tatatag ang aking mga araw.”
And Ezekias said to Esaias, Good is the word of the Lord, which he hath spoken: let there, I pray, be peace and righteousness in my days.
