"Then 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. Then 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 showed them.

"Da kom profeten Esajas til kong Ezekias og sagde til ham: "Hvad sagde disse mænd, og hvorfra kom de til dig?" Ezekias svarede: "De kom fra et fjernt land, fra Babel." Da spurgte han: "Hvad fik de at se i dit hus?" Ezekias svarede: "Alt, hvad der er i mit hus, så de; der er ikke den ting i mine skatkamre, jeg ikke viste dem."
