Isaiah 39:4-8 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

4. He asked, “What did they see in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They saw everything in my house. There is nothing in my storerooms that I did not show them.”

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

6. The time is coming when all that is in your house, everything that your ancestors have stored up until this day, shall be carried off to Babylon; nothing shall be left, says the Lord.

7. Some of your own descendants, your progeny, shall be taken and made attendants in the palace of the king of Babylon.”

8. Hezekiah replied to Isaiah, “The word of the Lord which you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “There will be peace and stability in my lifetime.”
