2 Kings 20:18 In-Context

16 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of the Lord:
17 Days are coming when all that is in your house, and that which your ancestors have stored up until this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, says the Lord.
18 Some of your own sons who are born to you shall be taken away; they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon."
19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "The word of the Lord that you have spoken is good." For he thought, "Why not, if there will be peace and security in my days?"
20 The rest of the deeds of Hezekiah, all his power, how he made the pool and the conduit and brought water into the city, are they not written in the Book of the Annals of the Kings of Judah?
