39 — Isaias

1At that time Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan king of Babylon, sent letters and presents to Ezechias: for he had heard that he had been sick and was recovered.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.AT THAT time Merodach Baladan the sonne of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters & giftes to Ezechias: for he had heard that he had bene sicke, and was recouered.In tempore illo misit Merodach Baladan, filius Baladan, rex Babylonis, libros et munera ad Ezechiam: audierat enim quod ægrotasset et convaluisset. 2And Ezechias rejoiced at their coming, and he shewed them the storehouses of his aromatical spices, and of the silver, and of the gold, and of the sweet odours, and of the precious ointment, and all the storehouses of his furniture, and all things that were found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion that Ezechias shewed them not.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.And Ezechias reioyced vpon them, and he shewed them the storehouse of aromatical spices, and of siluer, and of gold, and of sweete odours, and of the best oyntment, and al the store houses of his furniture, and al thinges that were found in his treasures. There was not anie thing, which Ezechias shewed them not in his house, and in al his dominion.Lætatus est autem super eis Ezechias, et ostendit eis cellam aromatum, et argenti, et auri, et odoramentorum, et unguenti optimi, et omnes apothecas supellectilis suæ, et universa quæ inventa sunt in thesauris ejus. Non fuit verbum quod non ostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua, et in omni potestate sua. 3Then Isaias the prophet came to king Ezechias, and said to him: What said these men, and from whence came they to thee? And Ezechias said: From a far country they came to me, from Babylon.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.But Isaie the prophet went in to Ezechias the king, and said to him: What sayd these men, and from whence came they to thee? And Ezechias sayd: From a far countrie they came to me, from Babylon.Introivit autem Isaias propheta ad Ezechiam regem, et dixit ei: Quid dixerunt viri isti, et unde venerunt ad te ? Et dixit Ezechias: De terra longinqua venerunt ad me, de Babylone. 4And he said: What saw they in thy house? And Ezechias said: All things that are in my house have they seen, there was not any thing which I have not shewn them in my treasures.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.And he sayd: What saw they in thy house? And Ezechias sayd al thinges that are in my house haue they sene, there was not anie thing, which I haue not shewed them in my treasures.Et dixit: Quid viderunt in domo tua ? Et dixit Ezechias: Omnia quæ in domo mea sunt viderunt; non fuit res quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis.

5And Isaias said to Ezechias: Hear the word of the Lord of hosts.Ed Isaia disse ad Ezechia: Ascolta la parola del Signor degli eserciti.And Isaie sayd to Ezechias: Heare the word of the Lord of hostes.Et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam: Audi verbum Domini exercituum. 6Behold the days shall come that all that is in thy house, and that thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried away into Babylon: there shall not any thing be left, saith the Lord.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.Behold the daies shal come: and al thinges that are in thy house, and that thy fathers haue layd vp for treasure vntil this day, shal be taken away into Babylon: there shal not any thing be leaft, sayth our Lord.Ecce dies venient, et auferentur omnia quæ in domo tua sunt, et quæ thesaurizaverunt patres tui usque ad diem hanc, in Babylonem; non relinquetur quidquam, dicit Dominus. 7And of thy children, that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, they shall take away, and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.E prenderanno de' tuoi figliuoli nati, e generati da te, ed eglino saranno eunuchi nel palazzo del re di Babilonia.And of thy children, which shal come forth of thee, whom thou shalt beget, they shal take away, and they shal be eunuches in the palace of the king of Babylon.Et de filiis tuis, qui exibunt de te, quos genueris, tollent, et erunt eunuchi in palatio regis Babylonis. 8And Ezechias said to Isaias: The word of the Lord, which he hath spoken, is good. And he said: Only let peace and truth be in my days.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.And Ezechias sayd to Isaie: The word of our Lord which he hath spoken is good. And he said: Onlie be there peace and truth in my daies.Et dixit Ezechias ad Isaiam: Bonum verbum Domini, quod locutus est. Et dixit: Fiat tantum pax et veritas in diebus meis !
