2 مُلُوك 20
| وَمَرِضَ حَزَقِيَّا فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ حَتَّى أَشْرَفَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ، فَجَاءَ إِلَيْهِ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ:’نَظِّمْ شُؤُونَ بَيْتِكَ لأَنَّكَ لَنْ تَبْرَأَ بَلْ حَتْماً تَمُوتَ‘». | ١ 1 |
In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz came to him and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Put your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’”
| فَأَشَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ نَحْوَ الْحَائِطِ وَصَلَّى قَائِلاً: | ٢ 2 |
Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD, saying,
| «آهِ يَا رَبُّ، اذْكُرْ كَيْفَ سَلَكْتُ أَمَامَكَ بِأَمَانَةٍ وَإِخْلاصِ قَلْبٍ، وَصَنَعْتُ مَا يُرْضِيكَ». وَبَكَى حَزَقِيَّا بُكَاءً مُرّاً. | ٣ 3 |
“Please, O LORD, remember how I have walked before You faithfully and with wholehearted devotion; I have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
| وَقَبْلَ أَنْ يَبْلُغَ إِشَعْيَاءُ فِنَاءَ الْقَصْرِ الأَوْسَطِ خَاطَبَهُ الرَّبُّ قَائِلاً: | ٤ 4 |
Before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
| «ارْجِعْ وَقُلْ لِحَزَقِيَّا رَئِيسِ شَعْبِي: هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ دَاوُدَ أَبِيكَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ صَلاتَكَ، وَرَأَيْتُ دُمُوعَكَ، وَهَا أَنَا أُبْرِئُكَ، فَتَذْهَبُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ لِلصَّلاةِ فِي هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ. | ٥ 5 |
“Go back and tell Hezekiah the leader of My people that this is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. I will surely heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the house of the LORD.
| وَأُضِيفُ عَلَى سِنِي حَيَاتِكَ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ عَاماً وَأُنْقِذُكَ أَنْتَ وَهَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ مِنْ مَلِكِ أَشُورَ، وَأُدَافِعُ عَنْهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِي وَإِكْرَاماً لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ». | ٦ 6 |
I will add fifteen years to your life. And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for My sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
| ثُمَّ قَالَ إِشَعْيَاءُ: «خُذُوا قُرْصَ تِينٍ». فَأَخَذُوا قُرْصَ تِينٍ وَضَعُوهُ عَلَى الْقُرْحِ فَبَرِىءَ. | ٧ 7 |
Then Isaiah said, “Prepare a poultice of figs.” So they brought it and applied it to the boil, and Hezekiah recovered.
| وَسَأَلَ حَزَقِيَّا إِشَعْيَاءَ: «مَا الْعَلامَةُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَشْفِينِي، فَأَتَمَكَّنَ مِنَ الذَّهَابِ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ؟» | ٨ 8 |
Now Hezekiah had asked Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me and that I will go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?”
| فَأَجَابَهُ إِشَعْيَاءُ: «إِلَيْكَ الْعَلامَةَ مِنَ الرَّبِّ بِأَنَّهُ مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ يُتَمِّمَ مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ. أَجِبْنِي، هَلْ يَتَقَدَّمُ الظِّلُّ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ أَمْ يَرْتَدُّ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ؟» | ٩ 9 |
And Isaiah had replied, “This will be a sign to you from the LORD that He will do what He has promised: Would you like the shadow to go forward ten steps, or back ten steps?”
| فَأَجَابَ حَزَقِيَّا: «مِنْ شَأْنِ الظِّلِّ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ، لِذَلِكَ لِيَرْتَدَّ الظِّلُّ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ، فَتَكُونَ هَذِهِ هِيَ الْعَلامَةُ». | ١٠ 10 |
“It is easy for the shadow to lengthen ten steps,” answered Hezekiah, “but not for it to go back ten steps.”
| فَابْتَهَلَ إِشَعْيَاءُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ، فَتَراجَعَ الظِّلُّ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ فَوْقَ سُلَّمِ آحَازَ، بَعْدَ أَنْ كَانَ الظِّلُّ قَدِ امْتَدَّ عَلَيْهَا إِلَى الأَمَامِ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ. | ١١ 11 |
So Isaiah the prophet called out to the LORD, and He brought the shadow back the ten steps it had descended on the stairway of Ahaz.
| وَعِنْدَمَا عَلِمَ بَرُودَخُ بَلادَانُ ابْنُ الْمَلِكِ الْبَابِلِيِّ بَلادَانَ بِمَرَضِ حَزَقِيَّا، بَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ (وَفْداً) وَرَسَائِلَ وَهَدَايَا. | ١٢ 12 |
At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard about Hezekiah’s illness.
| فَاحْتَفَى بِهِمْ حَزَقِيَّا، وَأَطْلَعَهُمْ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا فِي خَزَائِنِ نَفَائِسِهِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ وَأَطْيَابٍ وَعُطُورٍ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ مَخَازِنِ أَسْلِحَتِهِ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ مَا يَحْتَفِظُ بِهِ فِي خَزَائِنِهِ. لَمْ يَتْرُكْ شَيْئاً فِي قَصْرِهِ وَفِي كُلِّ مَمْلَكَتِهِ لَمْ يُطْلِعْهُمْ عَلَيْهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
And Hezekiah received the envoys and showed them all that was in his treasure house—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, as well as his armory—all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his palace or in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them.
| فَوَفَدَ إِشَعْيَاءُ النَّبِيُّ عَلَى الْمَلِكِ حَزَقِيَّا وَسَأَلَهُ: «مَاذَا قَالَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالُ، وَمِنْ أَيْنَ جَاءُوا؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «جَاءُوا مِنْ أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ، مِنْ بَابِلَ». | ١٤ 14 |
Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, “Where did those men come from, and what did they say to you?” “They came from a distant land,” Hezekiah replied, “from Babylon.”
| فَعَادَ يَسْأَلُهُ: «مَاذَا شَاهَدُوا فِي قَصْرِكَ؟» فَأَجَابَ حَزَقِيَّا: «شَاهَدُوا كُلَّ مَا فِي قَصْرِي. لَمْ أَتْرُكْ شَيْئاً فِي مَخَازِنِي لَمْ أُطْلِعْهُمْ عَلَيْهِ». | ١٥ 15 |
“What have they seen in your palace?” Isaiah asked. “They have seen everything in my palace,” answered Hezekiah. “There is nothing among my treasures that I did not show them.”
| فَقَالَ إِشَعْيَاءُ لِحَزَقِيَّا: «اسْمَعْ كَلامَ الرَّبِّ. | ١٦ 16 |
Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD:
| هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي يُنْقَلُ فِيهَا إِلَى بَابِلَ كُلُّ مَا فِي قَصْرِكَ، وَمَا ادَّخَرَهُ أَسْلافُكَ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، وَلا يَبْقَى مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٧ 17 |
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.
| وَيُسْبَى بَعْضُ أَبْنَائِكَ الْخَارِجِينَ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ لِيَكُونُوا خِصْيَاناً فِي قَصْرِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ». | ١٨ 18 |
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.”
| فَقَالَ حَزَقِيَّا لإِشَعْيَاءَ: «صَالِحٌ قَوْلُ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي أَعْلَنْتَهُ». ثُمَّ حَدَّثَ نَفْسَهُ: «لِمَ لا؟ إِنْ كَانَ السَّلامُ وَالأَمَانُ يَسُودَانِ فِي أَيَّامِي». | ١٩ 19 |
But Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “Will there not at least be peace and security in my lifetime?”
| أَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ أَخْبَارِ حَزَقِيَّا وَكُلُّ أَعْمَالِهِ وَمُنْجَزَاتِهِ، وَكَيْفَ صَنَعَ الْبِرْكَةَ وَالْقَنَاةَ، وَأَدْخَلَ الْمَاءَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، أَلَيْسَتْ مُدَوَّنَةً فِي كِتَابِ أَخْبَارِ أَيَّامِ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا؟ | ٢٠ 20 |
As for the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, along with all his might and how he constructed the pool and the tunnel to bring water into the city, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
| ثُمَّ مَاتَ حَزَقِيَّا، وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَخَلَفَهُ ابْنُهُ مَنَسَّى عَلَى الْمُلْكِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Hezekiah rested with his fathers, and his son Manasseh reigned in his place.
