NEW AMERICAN BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 At that time when Merodach-baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, heard that Hezekiah had recovered from his sickness, he sent letters and gifts to him.1 In tempore illo misit Merodachbaladan filius Baladan rex Babylonislitteras et munera ad Ezechiam; audierat enim quod aegrotasset et convaluisset.
2 Hezekiah was pleased at this, and therefore showed the messengers his treasury, the silver and gold, the spices and fine oil, his whole armory, and everything that was in his storerooms; there was nothing in his house or in his whole realm that he did not show them.2 Laetatus est autem super eis Ezechias et ostendit eis cellam thesauri sui etargentum et aurum et aromata et oleum optimum et omnes apothecas supellectilissuae et universa, quae inventa sunt in thesauris eius. Nihil fuit, quod nonostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua et in omni potestate sua.
3 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and asked him, "What did these men say to you? Where did they come from?" Hezekiah answered, "They came to me from a distant land, from Babylon."3 Introivit autem Isaias propheta ad Ezechiam regem et dixit ei: “ Quiddixerunt viri isti et unde venerunt ad te? ”. Et dixit Ezechias: “ De terralonginqua venerunt ad me, de Babylone ”.
4 "What did they see in your house?" he asked. Hezekiah replied, "They saw everything in my house; there is nothing in my storerooms that I did not show them."4 Et dixit: “Quid viderunt in domotua?”. Et dixit Ezechias: “ Omnia, quae in domo mea sunt, viderunt; non fuitres, quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis ”.
5 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:5 Et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam: “ Audi verbum Domini exercituum:
6 Behold, the days shall come when all that is in your house, and everything that your fathers have stored up until this day, shall be carried off to Babylon; nothing shall be left, says the LORD.6 Ecce diesvenient, et auferentur omnia, quae in domo tua sunt, et quae thesaurizaveruntpatres tui usque ad diem hanc, in Babylonem; non relinquetur quidquam, dicitDominus.
7 Some of your own bodily descendants shall be taken and made servants in the palace of the king of Babylon."7 Et de filiis tuis, qui exibunt de te, quos genueris, tollent, eterunt eunuchi in palatio regis Babylonis ”.
8 Hezekiah replied to Isaiah, "The word of the LORD which you have spoken is favorable." For he thought, "There will be peace and security in my lifetime."8 Et dixit Ezechias ad Isaiam: “Bonum verbum Domini, quod locutus est ”. Et dixit: “ Dummodo fiat pax etsecuritas in diebus meis ”.
