Isaiah 39:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

Hezekiah Shows His Treasures

39 ^(A)At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that he had been sick and had recovered. ² Hezekiah ^[a]was ^(B)pleased, and showed them all his treasure house, the ^(C)silver and the gold and the spices and the precious oil and his whole armory and all that was found in his treasuries. There was nothing in his house nor in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them. ³ Then Isaiah the ^(D)prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, “What did these men say, and from where have they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They have come to me from a far ^(E)country, from Babylon.”
