2 Kings 20:16 In-Context

14 Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, "Where did these men come from and what did they say to you?" Hezekiah answered, "They came from a very distant country, from Babylonia."
15 "What did they see in the palace?" "They saw everything. There is nothing in the storerooms that I didn't show them."
16 Isaiah then told the king, "The Lord Almighty says that
17 a time is coming when everything in your palace, everything that your ancestors have stored up to this day, will be carried off to Babylonia. Nothing will be left.
18 Some of your own direct descendants will be taken away and made eunuchs to serve in the palace of the king of Babylonia."
