Chapter 39  
     
1.
At that time Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.
 
2.
And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shown them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shown them not.
 
3.
Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.
 
4.
Then said he, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.
 
5.
Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
 
6.
Behold, the days come, that all that is in your house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, said the Lord in dream.
 
7.
And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which you shall beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
 
8.
Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
