2 Chronicles 32
1 After all these acts of faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came and invaded Judah. He laid siege to the fortified cities, intending to conquer them for himself.
Bangʼ tich maber mane Hezekia otimo, Senakerib ruodh Asuria nobiro momonjo Juda. Ne ogoyo agengʼa ne mier mochiel gohinga koparo ni onyalo kawogi mondo gidok mage.
2 When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come to make war against Jerusalem,
Kane Hezekia oneno ni Senakerib nosebiro kendo noparo mar kedo kod Jerusalem,
3 he consulted with his leaders and commanders about stopping up the waters of the springs outside the city, and they helped him carry it out.
noporo wach gi jodonge kod jotend lweny mondo gigengʼ pi soko moa oko mar dala maduongʼ kendo ne gikonye.
4 Many people assembled and stopped up all the springs and the stream that flowed through the land. “Why should the kings of Assyria come and find plenty of water?” they said.
Oganda maduongʼ nochokore kendo ne gigengʼo sokni duto aore mane kadho e piny kagiwacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo ruodhi mag Asuria biro mondo onwangʼ pi mangʼeny.”
5 Then Hezekiah worked resolutely to rebuild all the broken sections of the wall and to raise up towers on it. He also built an outer wall and reinforced the supporting terraces of the City of David, and he produced an abundance of weapons and shields.
Eka notiyo matek koloso kuonde mane omukore mag ohinga kendo nogero kuonde maboyo mag ngʼicho. Nogero ohinga machielo e tok mokwongo kendo nomedo loso ndiri mosiro Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Bende noloso gig lweny kod okumbni mangʼeny.
6 Hezekiah appointed military commanders over the people and gathered the people in the square of the city gate. Then he encouraged them, saying,
Noketo jotend lweny mondo otel ne ji kendo nochokogi e nyime e laru mar dhoranga dala maduongʼ kendo nojiwogi gi wechegi:
7 “Be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged before the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater One with us than with him.
“Beduru motegno kendo gi chir. Kik ubed gi luoro kata kik chunyu tho nikech ruodh Asuria kod jolweny mangʼeny man kode nimar wan gi teko maduongʼ moloye.
8 With him is only the arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles.” So the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
Teko mar dhano ema ni kode to wan to wan kod Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa makonyowa kendo kedonwa e lwenjewa.” Kendo ji nobedo gi chir kane giwinjo wach Hezekia ruodh Juda.
9 Later, as Sennacherib king of Assyria and all his forces besieged Lachish, he sent his servants to Jerusalem with a message for King Hezekiah of Judah and all the people of Judah who were in Jerusalem:
Bangʼe kane Senakerib ruodh Asuria kod jolweny mage duto ne ogoyo agengʼa Lakish, nooro jotend lweny mage Jerusalem mondo owach ne Hezekia ruodh Juda kod jo-Juda duto mane ni kanyo kowacho niya,
10 “This is what Sennacherib king of Assyria says: What is the basis of your confidence, that you remain in Jerusalem under siege?
“Ma e gima Senakerib ruodh Asuria wacho: En kama nade miketoe genoni, momiyo isiko Jerusalem ka ogoni agengʼa?
11 Is not Hezekiah misleading you to give you over to death by famine and thirst when he says, ‘The LORD our God will deliver us from the hand of the king of Assyria?’
Ka Hezekia wacho ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachwa biro resowa e lwet ruodh Asuria,’ donge uparo ni owitou mondo kech gi riyo onegu?
12 Did not Hezekiah himself remove His high places and His altars and say to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You must worship before one altar, and on it you shall burn sacrifices’?
Donge Hezekia owuon nomuko kuonde motingʼore mar lemo kod kende mag misango mag nyasayeni kowachone jo-Juda kod jo-Jerusalem ni, ‘Nyaka ulam e nyim kendo mar misango achiel kendo unuwangʼ misango mau e wiye’?
13 Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Have the gods of these nations ever been able to deliver their land from my hand?
“Donge ungʼeyo gima an kod kwerena osetimo ni ogendini mamoko duto mag pinje? Dak ne nyiseche pinjego duto resgi e lweta?
14 Who among all the gods of these nations that my fathers devoted to destruction has been able to deliver his people from my hand? How then can your God deliver you from my hand?
Kuom nyiseche duto mag ogendini mane kwerena otieko, en mane kuomgi mosereso joge e lweta? Angʼo momiyo uparo ni nyasachu biro resou e lweta?
15 So now, do not let Hezekiah deceive you, and do not let him mislead you like this. Do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to deliver his people from my hand or from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand!”
Omiyo kik uwe Hezekia wuondu kendo mi ulal kama. Kik uyie kode nikech onge nyasach oganda kata pinyruoth moro amora ma osereso joge e lweta kata e lwet kwerena. Omiyo ere kaka nyasachu noresu e lweta!”
16 And the servants of Sennacherib spoke further against the LORD God and against His servant Hezekiah.
Jotelo mag Senakerib nomedo wuoyo marach kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo kuom jatichne Hezekia.
17 He also wrote letters mocking the LORD, the God of Israel, and saying against Him: “Just as the gods of the nations did not deliver their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my hand.”
Bende ruoth nondiko baruwa moyanyogo Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel kendo nowuoyo kuome kojare niya, “Mana kaka nyiseche mag jopinje moko ne ok oresogi e lweta, omiyo nyasach Hezekia bende ok nores joge e lweta.”
18 Then the Assyrians called out loudly in Hebrew to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten and terrify them in order to capture the city.
Bangʼe negiluongo joma ne nitie Jerusalem e ohinga ka gikok gi dwol maduongʼ gi dho jo-Hibrania mondo obwog-gi kendo omi gibed gi luoro eka mondo gikaw dala maduongʼno.
19 They spoke against the God of Jerusalem as they had spoken against the gods of the peoples of the earth—the work of human hands.
Ne giwuoyo marach kuom Nyasach Jerusalem kaka ne giwuoyo kuom nyiseche molos gi lwedo mag ogendini mag piny.
20 In response, King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz cried out to heaven in prayer,
Ruoth Hezekia gi janabi Isaya wuod Amoz noywagore ka lemo e nyim polo kuom wachni.
21 and the LORD sent an angel who annihilated every mighty man of valor and every leader and commander in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he withdrew to his own land in disgrace. And when he entered the temple of his god, some of his own sons struck him down with the sword.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nooro malaika mane onego jolweny gi jochungʼ kod jotelo e kambi mar ruodh Asuria, omiyo nowuok modok e pinye gi wichkuot. Kane odhi e kar lemo mar nyasache, yawuote moko nonege kod ligangla.
22 So the LORD saved Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem from the hands of King Sennacherib of Assyria and all the others, and He gave them rest on every side.
Kamano e kaka Jehova Nyasaye noreso Hezekia kod jo-Jerusalem motony e lwet Senakerib ruodh Asuria kendo e lwet ruodhi mamoko bende. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye noritogi kuom pinje duto mane olworogi.
23 Many brought offerings to Jerusalem for the LORD and valuable gifts for Hezekiah king of Judah, and from then on he was exalted in the eyes of all nations.
Ji mangʼeny nokelo ni Jehova Nyasaye mich mag-gi Jerusalem kendo Hezekia ruodh Juda bende negikelone mich ma nengogi tek, kendo chakre kanyo ogendini duto nomiye luor maduongʼ.
24 In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill. So he prayed to the LORD, who spoke to him and gave him a sign.
E ndalogo Hezekia nobedo matuo kendo nohewore, omiyo nolamo Jehova Nyasaye mane odwoke kendo nomiye ranyisi mar hono.
25 But because his heart was proud, Hezekiah did not repay the favor shown to him. Therefore wrath came upon him and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
To Hezekia ne nigi sunga e chunye kendo ne ok odwoko erokamano kaluwore gi ngʼwono manotimne; omiyo mirima nomako Jehova Nyasaye kode kaachiel gi Juda gi Jerusalem.
26 Then Hezekiah humbled the pride of his heart—he and the people of Jerusalem—so that the wrath of the LORD did not come upon them during the days of Hezekiah.
To Hezekia nolokore moweyo timo richo mar sungruok e chunye mana kaka jo-Jerusalem bende notimo, omiyo mirimb Jehova Nyasaye ne ok ochako omake kodgi e ndalo Hezekia.
27 Hezekiah had very great riches and honor, and he made treasuries for his silver, gold, precious stones, spices, shields, and all kinds of valuable articles.
Hezekia ne nigi mwandu mangʼeny kod luor mi noloso kuondege mag fedha gi dhahabu gi kite ma nengogi tek gi gik mangʼwe ngʼar, gi okumbni kod gik moko mopogore opogore mabeyo mage.
28 He also made storehouses for the harvest of grain and new wine and oil, stalls for all kinds of livestock, and pens for the flocks.
Bende nogoyo deche mikane cham mokaa gi divai molos manyien kod mo kendo nogero kunde ne dhok mopogore opogore kod abila mag rombe.
29 He made cities for himself, and he acquired herds of sheep and cattle in abundance, for God gave him very great wealth.
Nogero mier kendo ne en kod rombe mangʼeny kod kweth mag dhok nikech Nyasaye nogwedhe kod mwandu mangʼeny.
30 It was Hezekiah who blocked the upper outlet of the Spring of Gihon and channeled it down to the west side of the City of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all that he did.
Hezekia ema ne ogengʼo thidhna matin mar Gihon kobaro pige mondo oluw bath Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi yo podho chiengʼ. Tije duto mane lwete omulo nodhi maber.
31 And so when ambassadors of the rulers of Babylon were sent to him to inquire about the wonder that had happened in the land, God left him alone to test him, that He might know all that was in Hezekiah’s heart.
To kane oorne joote gi jotend Babulon mondo openje kuom ranyisi mar hono mane otimore e piny, Nyasaye noweye mondo oteme mondo eka ongʼe gima ne nitiere e chunye.
32 As for the rest of the acts of Hezekiah and his deeds of loving devotion, they are indeed written in the vision of the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
Weche mamoko duto mag ndalo loch Hezekia kod timbene mabeyo ondiki e fweny mar janabi Isaya wuod Amoz e kitap ruodhi mag Juda kod Israel.
33 And Hezekiah rested with his fathers and was buried in the upper tombs of David’s descendants. All Judah and the people of Jerusalem paid him honor at his death. And his son Manasseh reigned in his place.
Hezekia notho moyweyo kaka kwerene kendo noyike e got kama liete nyikwa Daudi ne nitiere. Jo-Juda duto kod joma ne nitie Jerusalem nomiye duongʼ kane otho kendo Manase wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
