ʻIsaia 39
1At that time Merodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent envoys with letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that he had been sick and had recovered.
1ʻI HE kuonga ko ia naʻe ʻave ʻe Melotaki-Palatani ko e foha ʻo Palatani, ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻae ngaahi tohi mo e meʻa foaki kia Hesekaia: he kuo ne fanongo naʻe mahaki ia, pea kuo moʻui.
2And Hezekiah welcomed them gladly. And he showed them his treasure house, the silver, the gold, the spices, the precious oil, his whole armory, all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his house or in all his realm that Hezekiah did not show them.
2Pea naʻe fiefia ai ʻa Hesekaia, pea naʻa ne fakahā ʻae fale ʻo ʻene ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga, ʻae siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi meʻa namu kakala, mo e lolo mahuʻinga, mo e fale kotoa ʻo ʻene mahafutau, pea mo ia kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ʻi hono ngaahi tukunga koloa: naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi hono fale, pe ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē, naʻe taʻefakahā ʻe Hesekaia kiate kinautolu.
3Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, “What did these men say? And from where did they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come to me from a far country, from Babylon.”
3Pea naʻe toki haʻu ʻa ʻIsaia ko e palōfita ki he tuʻi ko Hesekaia, pea pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae lea ʻae kau tangata ni? Pea naʻa nau haʻu mei fē kiate koe?” Pea pehē ʻe Hesekaia, “Kuo nau haʻu mei he fonua mamaʻo kiate au, ʻio, mei Papilone.
4He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing in my storehouses that I did not show them.”
4Pea pehē ʻe ia, Ko e hā kuo nau mamata ai ʻi ho fale? Pea pehēange ʻe Hesekaia, “Ko ia kotoa pē ʻi hoku fale kuo nau mamata ki ai: ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi heʻeku koloa kuo u taʻefakahā kiate kinautolu.”
5Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:
5Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻIsaia kia Hesekaia, “Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau:
6Behold, the days are coming, when all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have stored up till this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Nothing shall be left, says the LORD.
6Vakai, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻE haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, ʻe fetuku ki Papilone ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ho fale, pea mo ia kuo tānaki ʻe hoʻo ngaahi tamai ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni: ʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe toe.
7And some of your own sons, who will come from you, whom you will father, shall be taken away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
7Pea ko ho ngaahi foha ʻe tupu ʻiate koe, ʻaia te ke fakatupu, te nau ʻave; pea te nau hoko ko e kau talifekau ʻi he fale fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone.”
8Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “There will be peace and security in my days.”
8Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Hesekaia kia ʻIsaia, “ʻOku lelei ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo ke lea ʻaki.” Pea naʻa ne toe pehē, “Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻi hoku ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻoku ʻae melino mo e moʻoni.”
