1 Hina bagade Hesigaia da Hina Godema molole fa: no bobogei. Be amogalu, Asilia hina bagade Sena: galibi da Yuda fi doagala: i. E da gagili sali moilai bai bagade huluane eale disili, ea dadi gagui dunu ilia gagili sali dobea muguluma: ne sia: i.
After Hezekiah's faithful work, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, invaded Judah and attacked its fortified towns, planning to conquer them for himself.
2 Amola Sena: gelibi da Yelusaleme doagala: ma: ne ilegei. Hina bagade Hesigaia da amo hou dawa: loba,
When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come to attack Jerusalem,
he talked with his army commanders about blocking up the water sources that lay outside the city. This is what they did.
4 e amola eagene ouligisu dunu da Asilia dunu ilia da Yelusaleme gadenene doaga: lalu, hano mae moma: ne logo hedofama: ne, hano logo Yelusaleme gadili galu, amo hedofamusa: dawa: i. Eagene ouligisu dunu da Yelusaleme fi dunu bagohame gadili oule asili, gu hano logo huluane hedofai.
They directed a large group of workers to block all the springs as well as the stream flowing nearby. “Why should the kings of Assyria come here and find plenty of water?” they asked.
5 Hina bagade da Yelusaleme bu gasawane gagili salima: ne, gagili sali dobea dodoa: i, amola amo da: iya diasu gado gagagula heda: su gaguli gagai. Amola e da gagoi gadili, eno dobea gagui. Amola e da gagili sali liligi amo da Yelusaleme musa: gagui gusudili dialu, be wali osobo gasa: le da: iya ligisi, amo dodoa: i. Amola e sia: beba: le, ilia da goge agei amola da: igene ga: su bagohame hamoi.
Hezekiah set to work and rebuilt all the parts of the wall that had fallen down and constructed towers on it. He also built another wall outside the first wall. He reinforced the Millo in the city of David. He also made a large quantity of weapons and shields.
6 E da dadi gagui ouligisu dunu, ilia Yelusaleme fi dunu huluane ouligima: ne ilegei, amola ilia huluane sogebi amo da Yelusaleme logo ga: su gadenene dialu, amogawi gilisima: ne sia: i.
Hezekiah put army commanders in charge of the people. Then he summoned the people to gather in the square at the city gate. He spoke to them confidently, telling them,
7 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia gasa fili, amola Asilia hina bagade amola ea dadi gagui wa: i ilima mae beda: ma! Ninima gai gasa bagade hou da ema gai gasa hou, bagadewane baligisa.
“Be strong and be brave! Don't be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria with his large army, for there are more with us than with him.
8 Ea gasa da osobo bagade dunu ea gasa fawane. Be ninia Hina Gode da ninima gai esala. Amola E da nini fidimu amola ninima gale gegemu.” Dunu huluane da ilia hina bagade ea sia: nababeba: le, dogo denesi.
He has human help, but we have the Lord God on our side to help us and fight our battles.” The people were encouraged by this speech of Hezekiah, king of Judah.
9 Amalu, fa: no, Sena: gelibi amola ea dadi gagui wa: i da La: igisi moilai bai bagadega esaloba, e da Hesigaia amola Yuda fi dunu ili gilisili Yelusalemega esalu, ilima amane sia: si,
Some time later, when Sennacherib was attacking the town of Lachish with his armies, he sent his officers to Jerusalem with this message for Hezekiah, king of Judah, and for everyone from Judah living there.
10 “Na da Asilia hina bagade Sena: gelibi! Na da dilima adole ba: sa. Na da Yelusaleme eale disi dagoi. Dilia abuliba: le hame beda: sala: ?
“This is what Sennacherib, king of Assyria, says. What are you going to trust in to help you survive when I come to attack Jerusalem?
11 Hesigaia da dilima, dilia Hina Gode da nini dilima mae hasalasima: ne, dili gaga: mu sia: sa. Be Hesigaia da dilima ogogosa. E da dili ha: ga amola hano hanaga bogoma: ne, logo doasisa.
Can't you see that in reality Hezekiah is telling you to die from starvation and thirst when he tells you, ‘The Lord our God will save us from the king of Assyria’?
12 Hesigaia hisu da Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi amola oloda huluane gugunufinisili, Yuda fi dunu amola Yelusaleme fi dunu ilima oloda afae fawane amoga nodone sia: ne gadoma: ne amola gabusiga: manoma gobele salima: ne sia: i.
Wasn't it Hezekiah who destroyed the high places and altars of this god and told Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You must worship at this one altar, and offer sacrifices on it alone’?
13 Dilia na aowalali, ilia eno fifi asi ilima hamosu amo dawa: sala: ? Eno fifi asi gala dunu ilia ‘gode’ da Asilia hina bagade ili mae hasalima: ne, gaga: bela: ? Hame mabu!
Don't you know what I and my fathers have done to all the nations of the earth? None of their gods could save them or their lands from me!
14 Amo fifi asi gala huluane ilia ‘gode’ da ninia ili mae hasalima: ne, hamedafa gaga: i. Amaiba: le, dilia abuliba: le dilia Gode da dili gaga: ma: ne dawa: sala: ?
Which one of all these gods of these nations that my fathers destroyed has been able to save them from me? So why would you think your god can save you from me?
15 Hesigaia da dilima ogogosa. Ea sia: dafawaneyale mae dawa: ma. Fifi asi gala huluane ilia ‘gode’ da Asilia hina bagade ili mae hasalima: ne gaga: mu da hamedei ba: i. Amaiba: le, dilia Gode da dili gaga: mu hamedeidafa ba: mu.”
So don't let Hezekiah fool you, and don't let him mislead you like this. Don't trust him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to save their people from me or from my fathers. So it's even less possible for your god to save you from me!”
16 Asilia eagene ouligisu dunu ilia da baligili Hina Gode amola Hina Gode ea hawa: hamosu dunu Hesigaia elea hou lasogole sia: i.
Sennacherib's officers continued criticizing the Lord God and his servant Hezekiah.
17 Amola meloa amo Asilia hina bagade ea dedei, amo ganodini Isala: ili Hina Godema odoga: su sia: bagade ba: i, “Fifi asi gala huluane ilia ‘gode’ da na gasaga ili hasalima: ne hame gaga: i. Amola Hesigaia ea Gode da dili na mae hasalima: ne, hamedafa gaga: mu.”
Sennacherib also wrote letters insulting the Lord, the God of Israel, taunting him by saying, “In the same way the gods of the nations did not save their people from me, so the god of Hezekiah will not save his people from me either.”
18 Sena: gelibi eagene ouligisu dunu da amo sia: Hibulu sia: ga wele sia: i. Bai ilia da Yelusaleme fi dunu dobea da: iya esalu, amo ili beda: ma: ne amola da: i dioma: ne hamomusa: dawa: i galu. Amalalu, ilia da hedolowane moilai sugumusa: dawa: i.
The Assyrians also shouted this out in Hebrew to the people of Jerusalem standing on the wall to frighten and to terrify them so that the city would be surrendered.
19 Ilia da Yelusaleme hadigi Godedafa, amo da fifi asi gala eno ilia udigili ogogosu ‘gode’, amo ili defele dawa: iwane sia: dasu.
They talked about the God of Jerusalem like they did about the gods of the other nations, gods made by human beings.
20 Amalalu, hina bagade Hesigaia amola balofede dunu Aisaia (A: imose egefe), ela da Godema sia: ne gadoi amola Godea ili fidima: ne Ema digini wele sia: i.
King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, appealed about this in prayer to the God of heaven.
21 Hina Gode da a: igele dunu asunasili, e da Asilia dadi gagui dunu amola ilia ouligisu dunu medole legei. Amaiba: le, Asilia hina bagade da gogosiane, Asilia sogega buhagi. Eso afaega, e da ea ogogosu ‘gode’ ea debolo diasua esaloba, egefelali mogili da gegesu gobiheiga, e medole legei.
The Lord sent an angel who wiped out every warrior, leader, and commander in the camp of the Assyrian king. So he returned home in disgrace. When he went into the temple of his god, some of his own sons killed him with their swords.
22 Hina Gode da agoane hina bagade Hesigaia amola Yelusaleme fi dunu huluane amo Asilia hina bagade Sena: gelibi amola Yuda fi ha lai dunu eno, ili mae hasalima: ne gaga: i dagoi.
The Lord saved Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem from King Sennacherib of Assyria and all other enemies, giving them peace in every direction.
23 Dunu bagohame da Yelusalemega, Hina Godema gobele salimusa: amola Hesigaiama hahawane dogolegele iasu liligi imunusa: misi. Ha amogainini, fifi asi gala dunu huluane da Hesigaiama nodone dawa: i.
From then on he was very well respected by all the nations, and many brought offerings to Jerusalem for the Lord and valuable gifts for Hezekiah, king of Judah.
24 Amo galu, hina bagade Hesigaia da olole, bogomuwane galu. E Godema sia: ne gadoiba: le, Hina Gode da e uhinisima: ne, ema dawa: digima: ne olelesu i.
Around that time Hezekiah fell sick and was about to die. So he prayed to the Lord, who replied by healing him and giving him a miraculous sign.
25 Be Hesigaia da gasa fili, Hina Gode Ea uhinisisu hou ba: beba: le, Godema hame nodoi. Amaiba: le, Yuda fi amola Yelusaleme fi da se nabi.
But because he had become proud, Hezekiah did not acknowledge the gift he'd been given. So the Lord's anger fell on him, and on Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Be fa: nowane, Hesigaia amola Yelusaleme fi da ilia hou fofonoboi. Amaiba: le, Hesigaia esalebe galu, ilima se hame i.
Then Hezekiah apologized for his arrogance, as did the people of Jerusalem, and the Lord's anger no longer fell on them during Hezekiah's lifetime.
27 Hina bagade Hesigaia da liligi bagade gaguiwane hamoi. Dunu huluane da ema nodosu. Ea sia: beba: le, ilia da liligi ligisisu sesei gaguia gagai. Amo ganodini, ilia da ea gouli, silifa, igi noga: idafa, ha: i manu fodole nasu, da: igene ga: su amola eno noga: idafa liligi, ligisisu.
Hezekiah was very rich and highly honored, and he built treasury storerooms to hold silver, gold, precious stones, spices, shields, and all kinds of valuable things.
28 Amola ea sia: beba: le, ilia da liligi ligisisu diasu gaguia gagai. Amo ganodini, ilia da ea gala: ine, waini hano amola olife susuligi ligisisu. Amola ilia da ea bulamagau diasu gaguia gagai, amola sibi gagole gagai.
He constructed buildings to store supplies of grain, new wine, and olive oil, and stalls for all kinds of animals, including cattle and sheep.
29 Eno amolawane, Gode da ema bulamagau amola sibi amola liligi bagohamedafa iabeba: le, e da moilai bai bagade eno bagohame gaguia gagai.
He built many towns, and he owned large herds of cattle and flocks of sheep, for God had made him very wealthy.
30 Hina bagade Hesigaia da Gihone Gu hano hihiga: le, ea hano logo eno hamegadili ogane, osobo hagududili, Yelusaleme gagoi ganodini doafasi. Hesigaia da ea hamosu defele huluane didili hamoi.
Hezekiah blocked off the outlet of the upper Gihon spring and made the water flow down to the west side of the City of David. Hezekiah was successful in everything he did.
31 Amola Ba: bilone alofele iasu dunu da musa: hame ba: su hou amo abedela manoba, (2 Hina 20:7-19), Gode da Hesigaia hi hanaiga hamoma: ne yolesi. Bai E da ea hou adoba: musa: dawa: i.
But when ambassadors of the rulers of Babylon came to him to ask about the miraculous sign that had happened in the country, God left him to himself test him, so he could know Hezekiah's true thinking.
32 Hesigaia ea hamonanu eno, amola ea Hina Godema asigidafa hou, amo huluane da “Balofede Dunu Aisaia (A: imose egefe) ea Esala Ba: su Meloa” amola “Yuda amola Isala: ili hina bagade Ilia Hamonanu Meloa” amo ganodini dedene legei.
The rest of what Hezekiah did, including his acts of loyalty, are recorded in the vision of the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Hesigaia da bogole amola ilia ea da: i hodo gadodili sogebiga, hina bagade ilia gele gelabo ganodini sali. Yuda fi amola Yelusaleme fi dunu huluane da ema asigiba: le, ema nodomusa: gegedole fi. Egefe Ma: na: se da e bagia hina bagade hamoi.
Hezekiah died and was buried in the upper cemetery of David's descendants. All Judah and the people of Jerusalem honored him at his death. His son Manasseh took over as king.
