Contextual Overview

12 At that time, Berodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present, unto Hezekiah, - for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all his house of precious things - the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and his armoury, and all that was found among his treasures, - there was, nothing, that Hezekiah shewed them not, in his house or in all his dominion. 14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto King Hezekiah, - and said unto him - What said these men, and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a land far off, came they - from Babylon. 15 And he said - What have they seen in thy house? Then said Hezekiah - All that is in my house, have they seen, there was, nothing, that I shewed them not, among my treasures. 16 Then said Isaiah unto Hezekiah, - Hear thou the word of Yahweh: 17 Lo! days are coming, when all that is in thine house, and that thy fathers have treasured up, unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon, - nothing shall be left, saith Yahweh; 18 and, of thy sons who shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away, - and they shall become eunuchs, in the palace of the king of Babylon. 19 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah - Good, is the word of Yahweh, which thou hast spoken. And he said - Is it not, that, peace and stability, there shall be in my days? 20 Now, the rest of the story of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool and an aqueduct, and brought water into the city, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? 21 So Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and, Manasseh his son, reigned, in his stead.
