At that time{H6256} Merodach-baladan{H4757} the son{H1121} of Baladan,{H1081} king{H4428} of Babylon,{H894} sent{H7971} letters{H5612} and a present{H4503} to Hezekiah;{H2396} for he heard{H8085} that he had been sick,{H2470} and was recovered.{H2388}

And Hezekiah{H2396} was glad{H8055} of them, and showed{H7200} them the house{H1004} of his precious things,{H5238} the silver,{H3701} and the gold,{H2091} and the spices,{H1314} and the precious{H2896} oil,{H8081} and all the house{H1004} of his armor,{H3627} and all that was found{H4672} in his treasures:{H214} there was nothing{H1697} in his house,{H1004} nor in all his dominion,{H4475} that Hezekiah{H2396} showed{H7200} them not.

Then came{H935} Isaiah{H3470} the prophet{H5030} unto king{H4428} Hezekiah,{H2396} and said{H559} unto him, What said{H559} these men?{H582} and from whence{H370} came{H935} they unto thee? And Hezekiah{H2396} said,{H559} They are come{H935} from a far{H7350} country{H776} unto me, even from Babylon.{H894}

Then said{H559} he, What have they seen{H7200} in thy house?{H1004} And Hezekiah{H2396} answered,{H559} All that is in my house{H1004} have they seen:{H7200} there is nothing{H1697} among my treasures{H214} that I have not showed{H7200} them.

Then said{H559} Isaiah{H3470} to Hezekiah,{H2396} Hear{H8085} the word{H1697} of Jehovah{H3068} of hosts:{H6635}

Behold, the days{H3117} are coming,{H935} when all that is in thy house,{H1004} and that which thy fathers{H1} have laid up in store{H686} until this day,{H3117} shall be carried{H5375} to Babylon:{H894} nothing{H1697} shall be left,{H3498} saith{H559} Jehovah.{H3068}

And of thy sons{H1121} that shall issue{H3318} from thee, whom thou shalt beget,{H3205} shall they take away;{H3947} and they shall be eunuchs{H5631} in the palace{H1964} of the king{H4428} of Babylon.{H894}

Then said{H559} Hezekiah{H2396} unto Isaiah,{H3470} Good{H2896} is the word{H1697} of Jehovah{H3068} which thou hast spoken.{H1696} He said{H559} moreover, For there shall be peace{H7965} and truth{H571} in my days.{H3117}
