Isaiah 39

Gen Z: Isaiah 39

1So Merodach–baladan, king of Babylon, slid into Hezekiah's DMs with gifts 'cause he heard he was sick and now he's vibing again.

2Hezekiah was hyped and showed them all his dope stuff—silver, gold, spices, and the sick ointment. He flexed everything, no cap.

3Then Isaiah the prophet pulled up on Hezekiah and asked, "What did they say? Where they from?" Hezekiah was like, "They came from far away, straight outta Babylon."

4Isaiah was like, "What did they see in your crib?" Hezekiah replied, "They peeped everything; I showed them all my treasures, no sus vibes."

5Then Isaiah hit Hezekiah with, "Listen up, here's the word from the Lord of hosts:"

6"Yo, days are coming when everything in your house and all that your fam saved up is getting taken to Babylon; nothing's staying, periodt."

7"And your future kids? They’re gonna be taken too, and they'll be serving in the Babylon king's palace, fr."

8Hezekiah replied to Isaiah, "The word of the Lord is good." He added, "As long as there’s peace and truth in my time, I’m chill."

KJV: Isaiah 39

1At that time Merodach–baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.

2And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.

3Then 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, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.

4Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.

5Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:

6Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the Lord.

7And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

8Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
