And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.
Ezequías se alegró de verlos y les mostró su tesoro donde guardaba sus cosas valiosas: la plata, el oro, las especias y los aceites costosos. También les mostró su armería y todos sus tesoros. No hubo nada en su palacio o reino que Ezequías no les mostrara.
Ezequías mostró con orgullo todas sus riquezas y posesiones a los visitantes extranjeros.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurred around 701 BC when envoys from Babylon visited King Hezekiah of Judah, likely after his recovery from a serious illness. The Babylonians may have been seeking an alliance against their common enemy, Assyria. Hezekiah's decision to reveal all his wealth and defenses would later prove to be a serious mistake that the prophet Isaiah would warn him about.
