# Chapter 39
|
|
1. At that time Merodach-Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that he had been sick and had recovered.
|
|
2. And Hezekiah was pleased with them, and showed them the house of his treasures--the silver and gold, the spices and precious ointment, and all his armory--all that was found among his treasures. There was nothing in his house or in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them.
|
|
|
|
3. Then Isaiah the prophet went to King Hezekiah, and said to him, "What did these men say, and from where did they come to you?"
|
|
So Hezekiah said, "They came to me from a far country, from Babylon."
|
|
|
|
4. And he said, "What have they seen in your house?"
|
|
So Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house; there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them."
|
|
|
|
5. Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
|
|
6. 'Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and what your fathers have accumulated until this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left,' says the Lord.
|
|
7. 'And they shall take away some of your sons who will descend from you, whom you will beget; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.' "
|
|
|
|
8. So Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "The word of the Lord which you have spoken is good!" For he said, "At least there will be peace and truth in my days."
