Isaiah 39

Isaiah 39

1 And because of the gifts from Merodak-baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babel at the time he heard that Hezekiah was sick, having sent him a number of books, to be firmly held to/fasten strongly upon; (chazaq: chanted at the end of reading Torah) 

2 they rejoice because they will cripple Hezekiah, when they see in the house, silver, gold, fragrance-spicery, ointment and the apparatus for the house. They also see good things in the depository/storehouse and find the spoken-words concerning Hezekiah's dominion in the house.

3 then, Prophet Isaiah came to king Hezekiah and say, tell me, where/which Island are those mortal-men came from? And Hezekiah says, they came from far away land of Babylon.

4 And he said, what have they seen in the house? And Hezekiah said, they see the spoken-words in the house and they see things in the storehouse/depository.

5 then, Isaiah said, Hezekiah, hear the word from Jehovah of (heavenly) army;

6 I tell you, a day will come, when things in the house of your fathers, and the site/resort of the spoken-words of Jehovah will be lifted up unto Babylon for the rest of their days.

7 your begotten sons will go out and be received as eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 

8 so, Isaiah tell Hezekiah that, Jehovah has spoken the truth. I tell you, the only good thing is that, there is still words of prosperous-peace as at this day.
