king of Babylon ,
sent letters and a present to Hezekiah ,
for he heard that he had been sick ,
and was recovered .

and showed them the house of his precious things ,
the silver ,
and the gold ,
and the spices ,
and the precious oil ,
and all the house of his armor ,
and all that was found in his treasures .

*
Then Isaiah the prophet came to king Hezekiah ,
and said to him ,
What did these men say ?
And from where did they come to thee ?
And Hezekiah said ,
They have come from a far country to me ,
even from Babylon .
*
Then he said ,
What have they seen in thy house ?
And Hezekiah answered ,
They have seen all that is in my house .
There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them .
*
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah ,
Hear the word of LORD of hosts :
*
Behold ,
the days are coming ,
when all that is in thy house ,
and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day ,
shall be carried to Babylon .
Nothing shall be left ,
says LORD .
*
And of thy sons who shall issue from thee ,
whom thou shall beget ,
they shall take away ,
and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon .
*
Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah ,
The word of LORD which thou have spoken is good .
He said moreover ,
For there shall be peace and truth in my days .
