2 Kings 20:12-15
12At thatH1931 timeH6256 Merodach-baladanH12551 sonH1121 of BaladanH1081 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 sentH7971 lettersH1255H5612 and a giftH4503 toH413 HezekiahH2396, forH3588 he had heardH8085 aboutH3588 Hezekiah’sH2396 illnessH2470. 13And HezekiahH2396 receivedH8085 the envoys and showed themH7200 all that wasH3605 in his treasureH5238 houseH1004—the silverH3701, the goldH2091, the spicesH1314, and the preciousH2896 oilH8081, as well as his armoryH1004H3627—allH3605 thatH834 was foundH4672 in his storehousesH214. There wasH1961 nothingH3808H1697 in his palaceH1004 or in allH3605 his dominionH4475 thatH834 HezekiahH2396 did notH3808 show themH7200.
14Then the prophetH5030 IsaiahH3470 wentH935 toH413 KingH4428 HezekiahH2396 and askedH559, “WhereH370 did thoseH428 menH582 come fromH935H413, and whatH4100 did they sayH559 to youH413?”
“They cameH935 from a distantH7350 landH776,” HezekiahH2396 repliedH559, “from BabylonH894.”
15“WhatH4100 have they seenH7200 in your palaceH1004?” Isaiah askedH559.
“They have seenH7200 everythingH3605 in my palaceH1004,” answeredH559 HezekiahH2396. “There is nothingH3808H1961 among my treasuresH214 thatH834 I did notH3808 show themH7200.”
