2 Kings 20:12-15
121At that time 2Berodach-baladan, a son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, because he heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 13And Hezekiah listened to 3them, and showed them 4all his treasure house, the silver, the gold, the balsam oil, the 5scented oil, the house of his armor, and everything that was found in his treasuries. There was nothing in his house nor in all his realm that Hezekiah did not show them. 14Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say, and from where have they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, from Babylon.” 15Isaiah said, “What have they seen in your house?” So Hezekiah 6answered, “They have seen everything that is in my house; there is nothing among my treasuries that I have not shown them.”
