20:13 Note: We have abandoned or added a ketib/qere relative to BHS. In doing this we agree with L against BHS.
OET (OET-RV) When the messengers arrived, Hizkiyyah listened to them, then he showed them his entire treasure house: the gold and silver, the spices and the best oil, the house of his armour, and everything that was in his treasuries. He didn’t keep anything in his palace or in his kingdom secret from them.

Alternate translation: “carefully considered those letters” or “heard the message from the king of Babylon”

(Occurrence 0) There was nothing in his house, nor in all his kingdom, that Hezekiah did not show them
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_listened about,them Ḩizqiyyāh and,showed,them DOM all/each/any/every house_of treasure,his DOM the,silver and=DOM the=gold and=DOM the,spices and=DOM oil the,precious and=DOM house_of weapons,his and=DOM all/each/any/every which/who he/it_was_found in/on/at/with,treasuries,his not it_became thing which/who not show,them Ḩizqiyyāh in/on/at/with,palace,his and=on/over=all realm,his )
Here “There was nothing … did not show them” is an exaggeration used for emphasis. It means Hezekiah showed them all of his most valuable things. This can be stated in positive form. Alternate translation: “Hezekiah showed him absolutely everything valuable in his house and in all his kingdom” (See also: figs-hyperbole)
20:1-19 About that time: This general time reference indicates that the order of events is thematic rather than chronological. The episode concerning Merodach-baladan (20:12-19), whom Sennacherib had driven from Babylon before 701 BC, happened earlier than the events of chs 18–19 but after Hezekiah’s illness (20:12).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
