Contextual Overview

12 At that time Berodach-baladan, a son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah. For he heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 13 Hezekiah listened to them and showed them all his riches. He showed them the silver, the gold, the spices, the oil of much worth, the things used in battle, and all that was found in his store-rooms. There was nothing in his house, or in all the places of his rule, that Hezekiah did not show them. 14 Then Isaiah the man of God came to King Hezekiah and said, "What did these men say? From where have they come to you?" Hezekiah said, "They have come from a far country, from Babylon." 15 Isaiah said, "What have they seen in your house?" And Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my riches that I have not shown them." 16 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the Lord. 17 'See, the days are coming when all that is in your house, all that your fathers have kept in store to this day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left,' says the Lord. 18 'And some of your sons who will be born to you will be taken away. They will be servants in the house of the king of Babylon.'" 19 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "The word of the Lord which you have spoken is good." For he thought, "Why not, if there will be peace and people will be safe in my days?" 20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah and all his strength are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. He made the pool and the ditch and brought water into the city. 21 Hezekiah died, and his son Manasseh became king in his place.
