Yeshayah 39
39
1At that time Merodach Baladan Ben Baladan Melech Bavel sent sefarim (letters) and a minchah (gift) to Chizkiyah; for he had heard that he had been sick, and had recovered.
2And Chizkiyah was glad about them, and showed them the Bais Nekhotoh (Treasure House), the kesef, and the zahav, and the spices, and the shemen hatov, and all the Bais Keli of his, and all that was found in his otzerot; there was nothing in his Bais, nor in all his memshalet, that Chizkiyah did not show them.
3Then Yeshayah HaNavi came unto HaMelech Chizkiyah, and said unto him, What said these anashim? And from where came they unto thee? And Chizkiyah said, They are come from eretz rechokah (a far country) unto me, even from Babylon.
4Then he said, What have they seen in thine Bais? And Chizkiyah answered, All that is in mine Bais have they seen; there is nothing among my otzerot (treasures) that I have not showed them.
5Then said Yeshayah to Chizkiyah, Hear the Devar Hashem Tzivos;
6Hinei, the days are coming, that all that is in thine Bais, and that which Avoteicha have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith Hashem.
7And of thy Banim that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt father, shall they take away; and they shall be sarisim (eunuchs) in the Heikhal Melech Bavel.
8Then Chizkiyah said to Yeshayah, Tov is the Devar Hashem which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be shalom and emes in my days.

Isaiah 39
39
The Delegation from Babylon
1At that time, Merodach-Baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for#Or “and” he heard that he had been sick and recovered. 2And Hezekiah rejoiced over them and showed them his house of aromatic gum, the silver, gold, spices, good oil, all the house of his weapons, and all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing that Hezekiah had not shown them in his house or in all his dominion. 3And Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say, and from where did they come to you?” And Hezekiah answered,#Literally “said” “They came to me from a distant country, from Babylon.” 4And he#That is, Isaiah said, “What have they seen in your house?” And Hezekiah answered,#Literally “said” “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing that I have not shown them in my storehouses.”
5And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of Yahweh of hosts: 6‘Look! days are coming, and all that is in your house and that which your ancestors#Or “fathers” have stored up to this day shall be carried off to Babylon. Nothing shall be left,’ says Yahweh. 7‘And some of your sons who go out from you, whom you fathered, shall be taken, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.’ ” 8And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of Yahweh that you have spoken is good,” for#Or “and” he thought,#Literally “said” “Surely there will be peace and security in my days.”
