Isaiah 39:2

Isaiah 39:1-8

¹At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard that he had been sick and had recovered. ²Hezekiah was glad because of them, and showed them his treasure house: the silver, the gold, the spices, and the fine oil, and all his armory, and all that was found in his treasuries; there was not a thing that Hezekiah did not show them in his house or in all his dominion. ³Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say, and from where do they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “From a distant land they have come to me, from Babylon.” ⁴He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah said, “All that is in my house they have seen; there is not a thing that I have not shown them among my treasures.” ⁵Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of YHWH Tsevaot: ⁶‘Look, days are coming when all that is in your house, and what your fathers have stored up until this day, will be carried to Babylon; not a thing will be left, says YHWH. ⁷And some of your sons who will come out from you, whom you will father, they will take; and they will be officials in the palace of the king of Babylon.’” ⁸Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “Good is the word of YHWH that you have spoken.” And he said, “For there will be peace and truth in my days.”
