Isaiah 39
New American Standard Bible 2020
Hezekiah Shows His Treasures
11At that timeH6256 Merodach-baladanH4757 sonH1121 of BaladanH1081, kingH4428 of BabylonH894, sentH7971 lettersH5612 and a giftH4503 to HezekiahH2396, for he heardH8085 that he had beenH2470 sickH2470 and had recoveredH2388. 2HezekiahH2396 2was 3pleasedH8055H5921, and let them seeH7200 all his treasureH5238 houseH1004, the 4silverH3701, the goldH2091, the balsamH1314 oilH1314, the excellentH2896 oliveH8081 oilH8081, his entireH3605 armoryH1004H3627, and everythingH3605 that was foundH4672 in his treasuriesH214. There was nothingH3808H1697 in his houseH1004 nor in allH3605 his realmH4475 that HezekiahH2396 did not let them seeH7200. 3Then IsaiahH3470 the 5prophetH5030 cameH935 to KingH4428 HezekiahH2396 and saidH559 to him, “WhatH4100 did theseH428 menH376 sayH559, and from whereH370 did they comeH935 to you?” And HezekiahH2396 saidH559, “They cameH935 to me from a farH7350 6countryH776, from BabylonH894.” 4Then he saidH559, “WhatH4100 have they seenH7200 in your houseH1004?” So HezekiahH2396 7answeredH559, “They have seenH7200 everythingH3605 that is in my houseH1004; there is nothingH3808H1697 among my treasuriesH214 that I have not let them seeH7200.”
5IsaiahH3470 then saidH559 to HezekiahH2396, “HearH8085 the 8wordH1697 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635, 6‘BeholdH2009, the daysH3117 are comingH935 when 9everythingH3605 that is in your houseH1004, and whatH834 your fathersH1 have storedH686 upH686 to thisH2088 dayH3117, will be carriedH5375 to BabylonH894; nothingH3808H1697 will be leftH3498,’ saysH559 the LordH3068. 7‘And someH4480 of your sonsH1121 whoH834 will comeH3318 from you, whomH834 you will fatherH3205, 10will be takenH3947 away, and 11they will becomeH1961 eunuchsH5631 in the palaceH1964 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.’” 812Then HezekiahH2396 saidH559 to IsaiahH3470, “The wordH1697 of the LordH3068 whichH834 you have spokenH1696 is goodH2896.” For he 13thoughtH559, “For there will be peaceH7965 and truthH571 14in my daysH3117.”
