1 Hina bagade A: iha: se (Youda: me egefe amola Asaia aowa) da Yuda soge ouligisia, ilia gegesu ba: i. Lisini (Silia hina bagade) amola Isala: ili hina bagade Biga (Lemalaia egefe) ela da Yelusalemega doagala: i. Be ela da amo fedele lamu hamedei ba: i.
Ahaz was the son of Jotham and grandson of Uzziah. During the time that Ahaz was the king of Judah, King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel marched [with their armies] to attack Jerusalem. But they could not conquer it.
2 Yuda hina bagade da Silia dadi gagui da Isala: ili dadi gagui ilima gilisili, Isala: ili soge ganodini esala, amo sia: nababeba: le, A:iha: se amola ea fi dunu da bagade beda: iba: le, ilia da ifa iwila ganodini foga fofogobe agoane fofogoi.
[But before they attacked], everyone in the palace heard a report that the armies of Syria and Israel were [now] (allies/joined [to attack Jerusalem)]. So Ahaz and the people over whom he ruled were extremely afraid; they were shaking from fear like trees shake in a windstorm.
3 Hina Gode da Aisaiama amane sia: i, “Dia gofe Sia Yasabe (bai da “bagahame da buhagimu”) amo oule asili, hina bagade A: iha: sema sia: musa: masa. Alia da A: iha: se amo logo amoga abula hahamosu dunu hawa: hamonana, amola hano logo amo da hano gadodili wayabo amoga yogodaha, amo ea dibiga A: iha: se esalebe ba: mu.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Take your son Shear-Jashub, and go to talk with [King] Ahaz. He is at the end of the (aqueduct/water channel) that brings water into the upper reservoir, near the road to the place where women wash clothes.
4 Ema, e da ha: esalawane amola dogo denesini amola mae beda: iwane esaloma: ne sia: ma. Bai Silia hina bagade Lisini amola Isala: ili hina bagade Biga amola, ela ougi hou da hamedei liligi, amo da ifa aduna nasubu gala be noga: le hame nebe agoai gala.
Tell Ahaz to stop worrying [DOU]. Tell him that he does not need to be afraid of those two kings, Rezin and Pekah. They are very angry [with Judah], but they are [unable to harm his country any more than] completely burned-out coals [can harm him].
5 Silia dunu amola Isala: ili dunu amolalia hina bagade da Yuda fi ilima doagala: musa: ilegei.
Yes, they are planning to attack this land and saying,
6 Ilia da Yuda sogega golili sa: ili, Yuda fi ilima beda: ma: ne gegene, Yuda fi da A: iha: se yolesili, ilimagale gegemusa: sia: mu. Amalalu, ilia da Da: ibia: le egefe Yuda hina bagade hamomusa: dawa: lala.
‘We will attack Judah and conquer it. Then we will appoint Tabeel’s son to be the king of Judah.’
7 Be Na, Hina Gode, da ilia amo hou hamedafa hamomu, agoane sia: sa.
But this is what Yahweh, the Lord, says: ‘It will not happen; they will not [conquer Jerusalem]!
8 Bai Silia fi ilia gasa da Dama: sagase (Silia soge ganodini moilai bisili bai bagade) fi ilia gasa hame baligisa. Amola Dama: sagase fi ilia gasa hou da hina bagade Lisini ea gasa hame baligisa. Amola Isala: ili dunu fi, amo da ode 65 gidigili, ilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu, amola fidafa agoane hamedafa ba: mu.
The capital of Syria is Damascus, but Damascus is ruled [only] by its [unimportant/insignificant] king king Rezin. And as for Israel, within 65 years it will be conquered and completely destroyed.
9 Isala: ili dunu fi ilia gasa da Samelia (Isala: ili soge ganodini bisili moilai bai bagade) ea gasa hame baligisa. Amola Samelia ea gasa da hina bagade Biga ea gasa hame baligisa. “Dia dafawaneyale dawa: su hou da gebewane hame dialea, di da gebewane hame lelumu.”
Israel’s capital is Samaria, and Samaria is ruled only by its [insignificant/unimportant] king king Pekah. [So you do not need to be afraid of those two countries]! [But you must trust me, because] if you do not trust me fully, you will be defeated.’”
10 Hina Gode da A: iha: sema sia: eno adole iasi, amane,
[Later], Yahweh gave [me another message to tell to] King Ahaz.
11 “Dia Hina Gode da dima dawa: digima: ne olelesu ima: ne, Ema adole ba: ma. E da bogoi soge haguduga o muagado Hebene amoga dima dawa: digima: ne olelesu imunusa: dawa: (Sheol h7585)
[He said to tell him], “Request me, Yahweh your God, to do something that will enable you to be sure [that I will help/protect you]. What you request can be [from a place that is] as high as the sky or as low as the place where the dead people are.” (Sheol h7585)
12 Be A: iha: se da bu adole i, “Na da dawa: digima: ne olelesu hame edegemu. Na da Hina Godema hamedafa adoba: mu.”
But [when I told that to the king, he refused]. He said, “[No], I will not request Yahweh to do something to prove [that he will help/protect us]!”
13 Amalalu, Aisaia da ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade Da: ibidi egaga fi dunu di! Nabima! Dia higa: i hou hamobeba: le, osobo bagade dunu da helei bagade naba. Be Godema higa: i hou hamomu da baligili noga: i hamedafa.
Then I said [to him], “You people who are descendants of King David, listen! You are causing me to be tired of being patient. Are you also going to cause my God to stop being patient with you [RHQ]?
14 Defea! Dia adole ba: mu higa: iba: le, Hina Gode Hisu da dima dawadigima: ne olelesu imunu. A: fini, dunu hame dawa: digi afae da abula agui ba: mu. E da dunu mano lalelegele, ema Ima: niuele (Gode amola nini da gilisili esala) dio asulimu.
Yahweh himself will do something for you [to prove that he will help/protect you]. Listen to this: A young woman will become pregnant and give birth to a son. She will name him Immanuel, [which means ‘God is with us’].
15 Amo mano da lalelegele amola fonobahadi asigilale, e da hou noga: i amola wadela: i hou afafamusa: dawa: mu. Amo esoga, dunu da bulamagau dodo maga: me amola agime hani nanebe ba: mu.
And by the time that child is old enough to eat curds/yogurt and honey, he will be able to reject what is evil and choose what is good.
16 Be amo eso mae doaga: le, hina bagade aduna amoma dia da beda: i, amo ilia soge da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.
And before that child is old enough to do that, the lands of the two kings that you(sg) are very (afraid of/worried about) will be deserted.
17 Hina Gode da di amola dia sosogo fi amola Yuda fi dunu huluane ilima se bagade imunu. Isala: ili fi da Yuda fi ilima afafaiba: le, bidi hamosu bagade ba: i. Be Hina Gode da dilima gegemusa: , Asilia hina bagade dilima oule misunuba: le, dia bidi hamosu ba: mu da musa: bidi ba: su amo bagadewane baligimu.
[But then] Yahweh will cause you and your family and your entire nation to experience [terrible disasters]. Those disasters will be worse than any disasters that have occurred since the country of Israel separated from Judah. Yahweh will cause [the army of] the king of Assyria to attack you!”
18 Amo esoga, Hina Gode da Idibidi dunu soge sedaga Naile Hano banugumaga esala, ilia da gagoba: defele misa: ne, E da homu. Amola Asilia dunu ilia soge yolesili agime wa: i defele misa: ne, E da homu.
At that time, [it will be as though] Yahweh will whistle to summon the army from the south of Egypt as well as the army of Assyria. They will [come and surround your country like] [MET] flies and bees.
19 Ilia da ga: nasi fago amola magufu gelabo amoga wa: le misunu. Ilia da aya: gaga: nomei ifa ludulu huluane amola gisi huluane amo dedebomu.
They will all come and settle/live [everywhere]—in the narrow valleys and caves in the rock cliffs, on land where there are thornbushes as well as on the fertile land.
20 Amo esoga, Hina Gode da dialuma hinabo dadamusu dunu hawa: hamomusa: misa: ne sia: mu. Amo da Asilia hina bagade, Iufala: idisi hano la: idi bega: esala. E da dia fi dunu ilia mayabo waga: mu amola ilia dialuma hinabo amola da: i hinabo waga: mu.
At that time Yahweh will hire the king of Assyria to come [with his army] from east of the [Euphrates] River. [They will get rid of everything in your land—the crops and the people. They will destroy everything thoroughly]; it will be like [MET] a barber shaving not only a man’s hair but his beard and the hair on his legs.
21 Amo esoga, ifabi ouligisu dunu da bulamagau afadafa amola goudi aduna fawane galebe ba: mu.
When that happens, a farmer will be able to have only one cow and two goats/sheep.
22 Be amoga e da dodo maga: me bagade dibiba: le, e da sadiwane ba: mu. Dafawane! Dunu bagahame fawane da soge ganodini esalebe ba: mu. Be ilia da ha: i manu defele, dodo maga: me amola agime hano manu.
[However], those animals will give plenty of milk, with the result that the farmer will have curds/yogurt to eat. And [because there will not be many people left] in the land, all the people who remain there will have plenty of milk and honey.
23 Amo esoga, waini sagai noga: iwane, afae afae da waini efe 1000 agoane sagai amola ilia bidi lamu defei afae afae da silifa muni 1000 agoane, amo huluane da aya: gaga: nomei amola gagalobo amoga dedeboi dagoi ba: mu.
Now there are many areas where there are vineyards that are worth 1,000 pieces of silver, but at that time there will be only briers and thorns [DOU] in those fields.
24 Dunu ilia amo musa: sagai ganodini, oulali amola dadi gaguli benea masunu. Soge huluane da aya: gaga: nomei amola wadela: i gagalobo amoga nabai ba: mu.
There will be only briers and thorns in the entire land, [and wild animals], with the result that men will take their bows and arrows and go there [to hunt and kill animals].
25 Agolo huluane amoga musa: ha: i manu noga: iwane sagai dagoi. Be amo da aya: gaga: nomeiga dedeboi dagoiba: le, dunu da amoga masunu hamedei ba: mu. Amo sogega, bulamagau amola sibi fawane da gisi manu.”
No one will go to where there previously were gardens on fertile hillsides, because briers and thorns will cover those hillsides. They will be areas where [only a few] cattle and sheep and goats wander around [searching for something to eat].
