Isaiah 36
1 Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.
E higa mar apar gangʼwen mar loch Ruoth Hezekia, Senakerib ruodh Asuria nomonjo mier madongo duto mochiel motegno mag Juda mokawogi.
2 And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to king Hezekiah with a great army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field.
Eka ruodh Asuria ne ooro jatend lweny gi ogandane mag lweny koa Lakish mondo odhi ir Ruoth Hezekia Jerusalem. Kane jatend lweny ochopo kuno, ne ochungʼ but Soko Mamalo mantie e yo miluongo ni Puoth Jaluoko.
3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah came forth to him, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.
Eliakim wuod Hilkia ma jatend od ruoth, gi Shebna jagoro kod Joa wuod Asaf mane jachan weche, nodhi ire kanyo.
4 And Rabshakeh said to them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this in which thou trust?
Jatend lweny nowachonegi niya, “Wachneuru Hezekia kama: “‘Ma e gima ruoth maduongʼ, ma ruodh Asuria wacho: En kama nade miketoe genoni momiyo in-gi chir kama?
5 I say, thy counsel and strength for the war are but vain words. Now on whom do thou trust that thou have rebelled against me?
Uwacho ni un gi rieko kod teko mangʼeny mar lweny, to gik ma uwacho onge tiendgi. En ngʼa ma uketo genou kuome, mamiyo ungʼanyo uweya?
6 Behold, thou trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand, and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust on him.
Neuru, sani koro uketo genou kuom Misri, machalo odundu mobarore ma ka ngʼato orere to opilore mochwo ngʼatno kendo kelo adhola! Mano e kaka Farao ruodh Misri chalo ne joma ogeno kuome.
7 But if thou say to me, We trust in Jehovah our God. Is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
To ka uwachona niya, “Wan waketo genowa kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa” to donge en ema kuondene motingʼore malo kod kendene mag misango Hezekia nogolo kowachone jo-Juda gi jo-Jerusalem niya, “Nyaka ulam mana e nyim kendo mar misangoni kende”?
8 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
“‘Biuru sani mondo uwinjru gi ruodha, ma en ruodh Asuria: Abiro miyou farese alufu ariyo, ka unyalo yudo joma riembogi!
9 How then can thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Ere kaka koro uparo ni unyalo loyo achiel kuom jotend jolweny matinie moloyo mag ruodha ka uketo genou mana kuom jolwenj Misri gi faresegi?
10 And have I now come up without Jehovah against this land to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
To moloyo mano iparo ni asebiro monjo pinyni mana gi pacha awuon ka ok en wach moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye? Jehova Nyasaye owuon ema osenyisa mondo abi amonj pinyni kendo akethe.’”
11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it. And speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people who are on the wall.
Eka Eliakim, Shebna kod Joa nowachone jatend lweny niya, “Yie iwuo gi jotichni gi dho jo-Aram nimar wawinjo dhokno. We wuoyo kodwa gi dho jo-Hibrania nikech joma ni e ohinga nyalo winjo gik miwachonwa.”
12 But Rabshakeh said, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit upon the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own urine with you?
To jatend lweny nodwokogi niya, “Uparo ni un kod ruodhu kendu ema ne ruodha oora iru mondo awachnu wechegi, to ok ne joma obedo ei ohinga; bende ungʼeyo ni jogo kaachiel gi un biro bangʼo chiethgi kendo madho lachgi?”
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Eka jatend lweny nochungʼ moluongo matek gi dho jo-Hibrania niya, “Winjuru weche moa kuom ruoth maduongʼ ma en ruodh Asuria!
14 Thus says the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you.
Ma e gima ruoth wacho: Kik uyie Hezekia wuondu nikech ok onyal resou!
15 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us. This city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Kik uwe Hezekia hou mondo ugen kuom Jehova Nyasaye kowachonu ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye biro resowa adier; kendo dala maduongʼni ok nochiw e lwet ruodh Asuria.’
16 Hearken not to Hezekiah. For thus says the king of Assyria, Make your peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye everyone of his vine, and everyone of his fig tree, and drink ye everyone the waters of his own cistern,
“Kik uwinj wach Hezekia. Ma e gima ruodh Asuria wacho: Winjreuru koda kendo biuru ira oko. Bangʼe ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu nocham mzabibu kod ngʼowu kendo nomodh pi moa e sokone owuon,
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
nyaka chop abi mi ateru e piny machal gi pinyu, ma en piny machiego cham gi divai manyien, piny mopongʼ gi makati kod mzabibu.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. Has any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
“Kik uwe Hezekia wuondu kowachonu ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye biro resowa.’ Bende nyaka nene nyasach piny moro amora osereso ogandane e lwet ruodh Asuria?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? And have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Ere nyiseche mag Hamath gi Arpad? Ere nyiseche mag Sefarvaim? Bende ne gireso Samaria e lweta?
20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Kuom nyiseche duto mag pinjegi, en mane mosereso pinye e lweta? To koro ere kaka uparo ni Jehova Nyasaye nyalo reso Jerusalem e lweta?”
21 But they held their peace, and answered him not a word. For the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
To ji duto nolingʼ thi maonge ngʼama dwoko nimar ruoth Hezekia nosegolo chik niya, “Kik udwoke.”
22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah came, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Eka Eliakim wuod Hilkia jatend od ruoth gi Shebna jagoro kod Joa wuod Asaf, jachan weche mag piny, nodhi ir Hezekia ka lepgi oyiech kendo negiwachone gima jatend lwenyno osewacho.
