2 Re 20:13

La Riveduta Bibbia

Ezechia dette udienza agli ambasciatori, e mostrò loro la casa dov’erano tutte le sue cose preziose, l’argento, l’oro, gli aromi, gli oli finissimi, il suo arsenale, e tutto quello che si trovava nei suoi tesori. Non vi fu cosa nella sua casa e in tutti i suoi domini, che Ezechia non mostrasse loro.

La Nuova Diodati
Ezechia diede udienza agli inviati e mostr loro tutta la casa del suo tesoro largento, loro, gli aromi, gli oli finissimi, il suo arsenale e tutto ci che si trovava nei suoi magazzini. Non ci fu nulla nella sua casa e in tutti i suoi domini che Ezechia non facesse loro vedere.

Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
Ed Ezechia diede orecchio a quegli ambasciatori, e mostrò loro tutta la casa delle sue cose preziose, l’argento e l’oro, e gli aromati, e gli olii odoriferi preziosi, e la casa de’ suoi vasellamenti, masserizie, e tutto quello che si ritrovava ne’ suoi tesori. Non vi fu cosa alcuna in casa, nè in tutto il dominio di Ezechia, ch’egli non mostrasse loro.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them - The Jewish king lent a favorable ear to the proposals of the ambassadors, and exhibited to them the resources which he possessed, in order to induce them to report well of him to their master.

All the house of his precious things - literally, the “spice-house;” the phrase had acquired the more generic sense of “treasure-house” from the fact that the gold, the silver, and the spices were all stored together.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 20:13. Hezekiah hearkened unto them — Instead of וישמע vaiyishma, he hearkened, וישמח vaiyismach, he rejoiced or was glad, is the reading of twelve of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS., the parallel place, Isaiah 39:2, the Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate, Arabic, some copies of the Targum, and the Babylonian Talmud.

All the house of his precious things — Interpreters are not well agreed about the meaning of the original נכתה nechothoh, which we here translate precious things, and in the margin spicery or jewels. I suppose the last to be meant.

There was nothing in his house — He showed them through a spirit of folly and exultation, all his treasures, and no doubt those in the house of the Lord. And it is said, 2 Chronicles 32:31, that in this business God left him to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart; and this trial proved that in his heart there was little else than pride and folly.
