15 Isaiah asked, "What have they seen in your palace?" Hezekiah answered, "They have seen everything in my palace. There isn't anything in my treasuries that I didn't show them."

18 'Some of your descendants who come from you will be taken away, and they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.' "
