2 Kings 20:17
v. 17-18: Isaiah delivered God’s judgment to Hezekiah. He told him that all the treasures he had shown to the Babylonians would one day be taken to Babylon. Even worse, some of Hezekiah’s descendants would be carried away as captives and made to serve in the palace of the Babylonian king (Daniel 1:1-7 a). This was not a direct punishment for Hezekiah’s actions, but it served as a warning of the consequences of pride and misplaced alliances.
