Isaiah 39
1 At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters with an offering to Hezekiah, because he had news that Hezekiah had been ill, and was well again.
N'aquelle tempo enviou Merodach-baladan, filho de Baladan, rei de Babylonia, cartas e um presente a Ezequias, porque tinha ouvido dizer que havia estado doente e que já tinha convalescido.
2 And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.
E Ezequias se alegrou d'elles, e lhes mostrou a casa do seu thesouro, a prata, e o oiro, e as especiarias, e os melhores unguentos, e toda a sua casa d'armas, e tudo quanto se achou nos seus thesouros: coisa nenhuma houve, nem em sua casa, nem em todo o seu dominio, que Ezequias lhes não mostrasse.
3 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.
Então o propheta Isaias veiu ao rei Ezequias, e lhe disse: Que é o que aquelles homens disseram, e d'onde vieram a ti? E disse Ezequias: D'uma terra remota vieram a mim, de Babylonia.
4 And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.
E disse elle: Que é o que viram em tua casa? E disse Ezequias: Viram tudo quanto ha em minha casa; coisa nenhuma ha nos meus thesouros que eu deixasse de lhes mostrar.
5 Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Give ear to the word of the Lord of armies:
Então disse Isaias a Ezequias: Ouve a palavra do Senhor dos Exercitos:
6 Truly, the days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone.
Eis que veem dias em que tudo quanto houver em tua casa, e o que enthesouraram teus paes até ao dia d'hoje será levado para Babylonia: não ficará coisa alguma, disse o Senhor.
7 And your sons, even your offspring, will they take away to be unsexed servants in the house of the king of Babylon.
E ainda até de teus filhos, que procederem de ti, e tu gerares, tomarão, para que sejam eunuchos no palacio do rei de Babylonia.
8 Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have said. And he said in his heart, There will be peace and quiet in my days.
Então disse Ezequias a Isaias: Boa é a palavra do Senhor que disseste. Disse mais: Pois haja paz e verdade em meus dias.
