< 2 Siangpahrang 19 >
1 Siangpahrang Hezekiah ni hote hah a thai toteh, a khohna hah a phi teh, burihni a kâkhu teh BAWIPA im vah a kâen.
When King Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the LORD’s house.
2 Imthung kahrawikung Eliakim hoi cakathutkung Shebna hoi vaihma kacuenaw ni burihni a kâkhu awh teh Amos capa profet Isaiah koevah a patoun awh.
He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 Siangpahrang ni Isaiah koevah, sahnin teh rucatnae hoi yuenae hoi pacekpahleknae hnin doeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, camo a khenae tue yo a pha ei teh khe nahane a tha awm hoeh.
They said to him, “Hezekiah says, ‘Today is a day of trouble, of rebuke, and of rejection; for the children have come to the point of birth, and there is no strength to deliver them.
4 A bawipa Assiria siangpahrang ni, kahring Cathut pacekpahlek hanlah, a patoun e Rebshakeh ni a dei e lawknaw pueng hah BAWIPA Cathut ni thai vaiteh BAWIPA Cathut ni a thai e lawk dawk hoi a yue thai. Hote kecu dawk kaawmnaw hanlah ratoum pouh naseh.
It may be the LORD your God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to defy the living God, and will rebuke the words which the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.’”
5 Hahoi teh, Siangpahrang Hezekiah e taminaw teh Isaiah koevah a cei awh.
So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 Isaiah ni, ahnimouh koe na bawipa koe hettelah na dei awh han, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, na thai awh e lawk Assiria siangpahrang e taminaw ni na pacekpahlek awh e hah taket hanh awh.
Isaiah said to them, “Tell your master this: ‘The LORD says, “Don’t be afraid of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Khenhaw! ahnimouh koe muitha buet touh ka patoun han. Kamthang a thai vaiteh, ama ram lah a ban han. Hahoi teh amae ram dawk roeroe vah, tahloi hoi ka kamlei sak han telah atipouh.
Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he will hear news, and will return to his own land. I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.”’”
8 Hahoi Rebshakeh teh, a ban teh Assiria siangpahrang ni, Libnah a tuk nah a hmu, bangdawk Lakhish hai yo a tâco toe tie hah a thai.
So Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
9 Hahoi khenhaw! nang hoi kâtuk hanelah, a kamthaw toe telah, Tirhakah, Ethiopia siangpahrang kong ayâ ni a dei e hah a thai. Hahoi Hezekiah koe patounenaw bout a patoun.
When he heard it said of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, “Behold, he has come out to fight against you,” he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
10 Hettelah Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koe na dei pouh han, na kângue awh e na Cathut ni, Jerusalem heh Assiria siangpahrang kut dawk poe mahoeh na ti awh e hah, telah na dum hanh naseh.
“Tell Hezekiah king of Judah this: ‘Don’t let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Khenhaw! Assiria siangpahrangnaw ni, ramnaw pueng koung a raphoe teh, ahnimouh lathueng a sak e naw na thai toe. Nang hah na rungngang han tangngak ma aw
Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly. Will you be delivered?
12 Kaie mintoenaw ni a raphoe e Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, Eden tami Telassar ahnimae cathutnaw ni a rungngang awh nama aw.
Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed—Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?
13 Hamath siangpahrang, Arpad siangpahrang, Sepharvaim khopui siangpahrang, Hamath siangpahrang hoi Ivvah siangpahrangnaw hateh, namaw koung ao awh vaw telah atipouh.
Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?’”
14 Hezekiah ni, a patounenaw kut dawk e ca hah a hmu teh a touk pouh. Hahoi teh Hezekiah teh BAWIPA im a kâen teh BAWIPA hmalah ca teh a kadai.
Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it. Then Hezekiah went up to the LORD’s house, and spread it before the LORD.
15 Hezekiah ni BAWIPA hmalah a ratoum teh Oe Bawipa, Cherubim rahak vah kho ka sak e Isarel Cathut, nang nama dueng doeh talai van pueng uknaeram thung Cathut lah na kaawm, talai hoi kalvan hai nang ni na sak e doeh.
Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, “LORD, the God of Israel, who are enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
16 Oe BAWIPA, na hnâpakeng haw nateh, na thai pouh haw. Oe BAWIPA na mit padai nateh khenhaw! kahring Cathut pacekpahlek e Sennacherib ni lawk a dei e hah thai haw.
Incline your ear, LORD, and hear. Open your eyes, LORD, and see. Hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to defy the living God.
17 BAWIPA, Assiria siangpahrangnaw ni, miphunnaw hoi a ramnaw teh a raphoe ei.
Truly, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
18 A cathutnaw hai hmai dawk koung a phum pouh ei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hotnaw teh cathutnaw ka tang na hoeh. Tami kut hoi sak e, thing hoi talung doeh, hatdawkvah a raphoe awh.
and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone. Therefore they have destroyed them.
19 Hatdawkvah oe BAWIPA, kaimae Cathut nang nama dueng doeh, BAWIPA Cathut lah na kaawm tie talai uknaeramnaw pueng ni, nang na panue thai nahan, na kut hoi na rungngang lah, telah atipouh.
Now therefore, LORD our God, save us, I beg you, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, LORD, are God alone.”
20 Hote tueng dawk Amos capa Isaiah ni, Hezekiah koevah Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni telah a dei. Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib taran lahoi yah, kai koe a ratoum e teh ka thai toe.
Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says ‘You have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, and I have heard you.
21 Hetheh, hot kong dawk hoi BAWIPA ni a dei e doeh. Zion canu tanglakacuem ni, pacekpahlek hoi na panuikhai e hah, Jerusalem canu ni a lû a kahek.
This is the word that the LORD has spoken concerning him: ‘The virgin daughter of Zion has despised you and ridiculed you. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.
22 Apimaw a min na mathoe sak teh, na pacekpahlek. Apimaw lawk hoi na hram sin, na mit na ueng sin, Isarel tami kathoung koe kai ma.
Whom have you defied and blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel!
23 Na patounenaw hno lahoi BAWIPA teh na pacekpahlek. Kaie rangleng moikapap hoi Lebanon ram kadung poung hoi monnaw koe ka pha teh, haw e sidar thing kahawinaw hoi hmaica thingnaw ka tâtueng vaiteh, talai ahawinae ratu, kho a rasang na koe hoe a dung nah koevah, ka kâen han.
By your messengers, you have defied the Lord, and have said, “With the multitude of my chariots, I have come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon, and I will cut down its tall cedars and its choice cypress trees; and I will enter into his farthest lodging place, the forest of his fruitful field.
24 Ram alouknaw e tui hah ka tai teh, ka tâco sak teh ouk ka nei, ka khoktabei ni Izip ramnaw pueng koung ka hak sak han telah ati.
I have dug and drunk strange waters, and I will dry up all the rivers of Egypt with the sole of my feet.”
25 Kai ni ayan hai ka sak e nahoehmaw, Atu teh kai ni ka sak e ti teh na panuek hoeh maw. Vaipuen lah a coung nahan raphoe e khopui rapan lah na o nahanelah, hottelah atu koung kahma sak toe.
Haven’t you heard how I have done it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? Now I have brought it to pass, that it should be yours to lay waste fortified cities into ruinous heaps.
26 Hatdawkvah a thung a kaawm e taminaw teh, tha a youn awh dawkvah, a yawng awh teh yeirai a phu awh.
Therefore their inhabitants had little power. They were dismayed and confounded. They were like the grass of the field and like the green herb, like the grass on the housetops and like grain blasted before it has grown up.
27 Hatei na onae hmuen na kâen, na tâco, kai taranlahoi na lungphuen tie ka panue.
But I know your sitting down, your going out, your coming in, and your raging against me.
28 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai taranlahoi na lungphuen pawiteh, kai koe ut na sin e teh ka hnâ koe koung a pha toe. Hatdawkvah na hnawng dawk hradang ka ta vaiteh, na pahni hah khakkhui vaiteh, hahoi na thonae koe lam hoi bout na ban sak han.
Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance has come up into my ears, therefore I will put my hook in your nose, and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.’
29 Hetheh, nang hanlah kamnuenae lah ao han. Takum teh amahmawk ka paw e hah, na khan awh vaiteh, palawng haiyah, amahmawk ka paw e na khan awh han. A kum pâthum teh, cang tu awh nateh, misur takha hah sak awh nateh a paw hah cat awh.
“This will be the sign to you: This year, you will eat that which grows of itself, and in the second year that which springs from that; and in the third year sow and reap, and plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
30 Judah imthungkhunaw thung dawk ka hlout ni teh kacawiraenaw ni, rahim lah khongyang a pabo vaiteh lathueng lah a paw a paw awh han.
The remnant that has escaped of the house of Judah will again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
31 Bangtelah tetpawiteh, kaawm e naw hah Jerusalem lahoi a ban awh han. Zion mon dawk kacawiraenaw hah a cei awh han. Ransahu BAWIPA ngaikhainae lahoi hothateh, a sak han.
For out of Jerusalem a remnant will go out, and out of Mount Zion those who shall escape. The LORD’s zeal will perform this.
32 Hatdawkvah BAWIPA ni Assiria siangpahrang kong teh, telah doeh a dei. Ahni teh hete khopui kâen mahoeh. Khokhu dawk pala pathui mahoeh. Khopui hmalah bahling hah patue mahoeh, kho lawi vah talai na paten mahoeh.
“Therefore the LORD says concerning the king of Assyria, ‘He will not come to this city, nor shoot an arrow there. He will not come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it.
33 A thonae lam koe lahoi a ban vaiteh, khopui thung kâen mahoeh.
He will return the same way that he came, and he will not come to this city,’ says the LORD.
34 Kai kecu dawk hoi thoseh, ka san Devit kecu dawk hoi thoseh, hete khopui teh ka rungngang hanelah ka ring han, BAWIPA ni ati, telah tami a patoun.
‘For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for my servant David’s sake.’”
35 Hahoi teh hote tangmin vah, BAWIPA kalvantami hah a cei teh, Assirianaw ni a roenae hmuen dawk 185,000 a thei awh. Amom maya a thaw toteh khenhaw! ro doeh patkâhai toe.
That night, the LORD’s angel went out and struck one hundred eighty-five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians. When men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.
36 Hahoi Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib teh, a tâco, im vah a ban teh Nineveh kho vah pou ao.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went home, and lived at Nineveh.
37 Hahoi, a cathut Nisroch im vah a bawk lahun nah a capa Adrammelek hoi Sharezer ni, tahloi hoi a thei roi teh, Ararat ram vah a yawng roi. Hahoi a capa Esarhaddon ni a yueng lah a uk.
As he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer struck him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. Esar Haddon his son reigned in his place.
