[1] At that time, Merodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that he had been sick, and had recovered. [2] Hezekiah was pleased with them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, and all the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah didn’t show them. [3] Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and asked him, “What did these men say? From where did they come to you?”Hezekiah said, “They have come from a country far from me, even from Babylon.” [4] Then he asked, “What have they seen in your house?”Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.” [5] Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of Yahweh of Armies: [6] ‘Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have stored up until today, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left,’ says Yahweh. [7] ‘They will take away your sons who will issue from you, whom you shall father, and they will be eunuchs in the king of Babylon’s palace.’ ” [8] Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “Yahweh’s word which you have spoken is good.” He said moreover, “For there will be peace and truth in my days.”

[1] At that time H6256 Merodachbaladan, H4757 the son H1121 of Baladan, H1081 king H4428 of Babylon, H894 sent H7971 (QalPerf) letters H5612 and a present H4503 to Hezekiah: H2396 for he had heard H8085 (QalImpf) that he had been sick, H2470 (QalPerf) and was recovered. H2388 (QalImpf) [2] And Hezekiah H2396 was glad H8055 (QalImpf) of them, and shewed H7200 (HiphImpf) them the house H1004 of his precious things, H5238§ the silver, H3701 and the gold, H2091 and the spices, H1314 and the precious H2896 ointment, H8081 and all the house H1004 of his armour, H3627 and all that was found H4672 (NiphPerf) in his treasures: H214 there was nothing H1697 in his house, H1004 nor in all his dominion, H4475 that Hezekiah H2396 shewed H7200 (HiphPerf) them not. [3] Then came H935 (QalImpf) Isaiah H3470 the prophet H5030 unto king H4428 Hezekiah, H2396 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, What said H559 (QalPerf) these men? H582 and from whence H370 came H935 (QalImpf) they unto thee? And Hezekiah H2396 said, H559 (QalImpf) They are come H935 (QalPerf) from a far H7350 country H776 unto me, even from Babylon. H894 [4] Then said H559 (QalImpf) he, What have they seen H7200 (QalPerf) in thine house? H1004 And Hezekiah H2396 answered, H559 (QalImpf) All that is in mine house H1004 have they seen: H7200 (QalPerf) there is nothing H1697 among my treasures H214 that I have not shewed H7200 (HiphPerf) them. [5] Then said H559 (QalImpf) Isaiah H3470 to Hezekiah, H2396 Hear H8085 (QalImpv) the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 of hosts: H6635 [6] Behold, the days H3117 come, H935 (QalActPtc) that all that is in thine house, H1004 and that which thy fathers H1 have laid up in store H686 (QalPerf) until this day, H3117 shall be carried H5375 (NiphPerf) to Babylon: H894 nothing H1697 shall be left, H3498 (NiphImpf) saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord. H3068 [7] And of thy sons H1121 that shall issue H3318 (QalImpf) from thee, which thou shalt beget, H3205 (HiphImpf) shall they take away; H3947 (QalImpf) and they shall be eunuchs H5631 in the palace H1964 of the king H4428 of Babylon. H894 [8] Then said H559 (QalImpf) Hezekiah H2396 to Isaiah, H3470 Good H2896 is the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 which thou hast spoken. H1696 (PielPerf) He said H559 (QalImpf) moreover, For there shall be peace H7965 and truth H571 in my days. H3117Footnotes
