Isaiah 39:5-8 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

5. Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah: “Listen to the words of the Lord of heaven’s armies:

6. ‘In the future everything in your palace will be taken away to Babylon. Everything your ancestors have stored up until this day will be taken away. Nothing will be left,’ says the Lord.

7. Some of your own children will be taken away. Those who will be born to you will be taken away. And they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”

8. Hezekiah told Isaiah, “These words from the Lord are good.” He said this because he thought, “There will be peace and security while I am king.”
