Isaiah 39
39
1At the same time, Merodach Baladan, the sonne of Baladan, King of Babel, sent letters, and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had bene sicke, and was recouered. 2And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of the treasures, the siluer, and the golde, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was founde in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his kingdome that Hezekiah shewed them not. 3Then came Isaiah the Prophet vnto King Hezekiah, and said vnto him, What said these men? and from whence came they to thee? And Hezekiah saide, They are come from a farre countrey vnto me, from Babel. 4Then saide he, What haue they seene in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house haue they seene: there is nothing among my treasures, that I haue not shewed them. 5And Isaiah saide to Hezekiah, Heare the worde of the Lord of hostes, 6Beholde, the dayes come, that all that is in thine house, and which thy fathers haue layed vp in store vntill this day, shall be caried to Babel: nothing shall be left, sayeth the Lord. 7And of thy sonnes, that shall proceede out of thee, and which thou shalt beget, shall they take away, and they shall be eunuches in the palace of the King of Babel. 8Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, The worde of the Lord is good, which thou hast spoken: and he saide, Yet let there be peace, and trueth in my dayes.

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.”
