BIBBIA MARTINICATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 In quel tempo Merodach Baladan, figlio di Baladan re di Babilonia, mandò ambasciatori con lettere, e doni ad Ezechia, avendo saputo com'egli era stato ammalato, ed era guarito.1 At that time, Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylon, sent letters and gifts to Hezekiah. For he had heard that he had fallen ill and had recovered.
2 Ed Ezechia si rallegro di queste cose, e fece loro vedere le stanze degli aromi, e dell'argento, e dell'oro, e de' profumi, e degli unguenti preziosi, e tutte le guardarobe de' suoi mobili, e tutto quello, ch'ei si trovava ne' suoi tesori. Non lasciò a parte, cosa Ezechia, ch'ei lor non mostrasse.2 And Hezekiah rejoiced over them, and he showed them the storehouses of his aromatic spices, and of the silver and gold, and of the perfumes and precious ointments, and all the repositories for his belongings, and all the things that were found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Ma andò Isaia profeta dal re Ezechia, e gli disse: Che dicono questi uomini, e donde vengono? Ed Ezechia rispose: Vengono a me da lontano paese, da Babilonia.3 Then Isaiah the prophet entered before king Hezekiah, and he said to him, “What did these men say, and from where did they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They came to me from a far away land, from Babylon.”
4 E quegli disse: Che hann'eglino veduto in casa tua? Ed Ezechia disse: Hanno veduto tutto quello, che è in casa mia; non v'ha cosa ne' miei tesori, ch'io non abbia loro mostrata.4 And he said, “What did they see in your house?” And Hezekiah said: “They have seen all the things that are in my house. There was nothing that I did not show them among my treasures.”
5 Ed Isaia disse ad Ezechia: Ascolta la parola del Signor degli eserciti.5 And Isaiah said to Hezekiah: “Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
6 Ecco, che tempo verrà, quando le cose tutte, che sono in casa tua, accumulate da' padri tuoi fino al dì a oggi, saran portate via a Babilonia: non ci resterà nulla, dice il Signore.6 Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and all that your fathers have stored up, even to this day, will be taken away to Babylon. There will be nothing left behind, says the Lord.
7 E prenderanno de' tuoi figliuoli nati, e generati da te, ed eglino saranno eunuchi nel palazzo del re di Babilonia.7 And your children, who will issue from you, whom you will produce, they will be taken away. And they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
8 E disse Ezechia ad Isaia: Giusta è la parola proferita dal Signore: e aggiunse: Solamente sia pace, e si adempiano le promesse ne' giorni miei.8 And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the Lord which he has spoken is good.” And he said, “But let there be peace and truth in my days.”
