And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, will be taken away to be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
In context
5 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD of Hosts:
6 The time will surely come when everything in your palace and all that your fathers have stored up until this day will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD.
7 And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, will be taken away to be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
8 But Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “At least there will be peace and security in my lifetime.”
