Isaiah 39:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ ‘The time is coming when everything in your house and everything your ancestors have saved until today will be carried away to Babylon. Nothing will be left!’ The Lord All-Powerful said this. ⁷ The Babylonians will take your own sons, and your sons will become officers^[a] in the palace of the king of Babylon.”

⁸ Then Hezekiah told Isaiah, “This message from the Lord is good.” (Hezekiah said this because he thought, “There will be real peace and security during my lifetime.”)
