< 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.
Bayan dukan abin da Hezekiya ya yi cikin aminci, sai Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya zo ya yaƙi Yahuda. Ya yi kwanto wa biranen katanga, yana zato zai ci su da yaƙi wa kansa.
2 When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come to make war against Jerusalem,
Sa’ad da Hezekiya ya ga Sennakerib ya zo yana kuma niyya yă yaƙi Urushalima,
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.
sai ya yi shawara da fadawansa da hafsoshin mayaƙansa cewa su datse ruwa daga maɓulɓulan ruwan da yake waje da birnin, suka kuwa taimake shi.
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.
Sai babban taro suka haɗu suka datse dukan maɓulɓulai da rafuffukan da suke gudu cikin ƙasar. Suka ce “Me zai sa sarakunan Assuriya su zo su sami ruwa barkatai?”
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.
Sai suka yi aiki tuƙuru suna gyaran dukan sassan katangar da suka fāɗi, suna kuma gina hasumiya a kai. Ya gina wata katanga a waje da wannan, ya kuma ƙara ƙarfin madogaran gini na Birnin Dawuda. Ya yi makamai masu yawa da kuma garkuwoyi.
6 Hezekiah appointed military commanders over the people and gathered the people in the square of the city gate. Then he encouraged them, saying,
Ya naɗa manyan hafsoshi a kan mutane, ya tattara su a gabansa a fili a ƙofar birni, ya kuma ƙarfafa su da waɗannan kalmomi.
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.
“Ku ƙarfafa, ku yi ƙarfin hali. Kada ku ji tsoro ko ku yi fargaba saboda sarkin Assuriya, da mayaƙan nan masu yawa da suke tare da shi, gama shi wanda yake tare da mu, ya fi wanda yake tare da su.
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.
Mayaƙa na jiki ne kawai suke tare da shi, amma Ubangiji Allahnmu ne yake tare da mu, zai kuwa taimake mu yă kuma yi yaƙinmu.” Mutane kuwa suka amince da maganar Hezekiya, Sarkin Yahuda.
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:
Daga baya, sa’ad da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya da dukan mayaƙansa suke kwanto wa Lakish, sai ya aiki hafsoshinsa da wannan saƙo wa Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda da kuma wa dukan mutanen Yahuda waɗanda suke can cewa,
10 “This is what Sennacherib king of Assyria says: What is the basis of your confidence, that you remain in Jerusalem under siege?
“Ga abin da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya ce ga me kake dogara, har da ka dāge cikin Urushalima da aka yi mata kwanto?
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?’
Ai, Hezekiya, ruɗinku yake yi, don yă sa ku mutu da yunwa da ƙishirwa sa’ad da yake ce muku, ‘Ubangiji Allahnmu zai cece mu daga hannun sarkin Assuriya.’
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’?
Hezekiya kansa bai rushe waɗannan masujadan kan tudu da bagadai, yana ce wa Yahuda da Urushalima, ‘Dole ku yi sujada a gaban bagade guda ku kuma ƙone hadayu a kansa ba’?
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?
“Ba ku san abin da ni da kuma kakannina suka yi wa dukan mutanen sauran ƙasashe ba? Allolin ƙasashen nan sun taɓa iya ceton ƙasarsu daga hannuna ne?
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?
Wanne a cikin dukan allolin waɗannan ƙasashe da kakannina suka hallaka ya taɓa iya ceton mutanensa daga gare ni? To, yaya Allahnku zai iya cetonku daga hannuna?
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!”
Yanzu fa, kada ku bar Hezekiya yă ruɗe ku yă kuma ɓad da ku haka. Kada ku gaskata shi, gama babu allahn wata ƙasa ko masarautar da ya taɓa iya ceton mutanensa daga hannuna ko kuwa hannun kakannina. Balle har Allahnku yă cece ku daga hannuna!”
16 And the servants of Sennacherib spoke further against the LORD God and against His servant Hezekiah.
Hafsoshin Sennakerib suka ci gaba da maganar banza wa Ubangiji Allah da kuma a kan bawansa Hezekiya.
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.”
Sarki ya kuma rubuta wasiƙu yana zagin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, yana faɗin wannan a kansa, “Kamar yadda sauran allolin mutanen sauran ƙasashe ba su iya kuɓutar da mutane daga hannuna ba, haka Allahn Hezekiya ba zai kuɓutar da mutanensa daga hannuna ba.”
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.
Sa’an nan suka yi magana da ƙarfi cikin Yahudanci wa mutanen Urushalima waɗanda suke kan katanga, don su firgita su, su kuma sa su ji tsoro don su iya cin birnin.
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.
Suka yi magana game da Allah na Urushalima yadda suka yi game da allolin sauran mutanen duniya, aikin hannuwan mutane.
20 In response, King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz cried out to heaven in prayer,
Sarki Hezekiya da annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz suka yi kuka cikin addu’a ga sama game da wannan.
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.
Sai Ubangiji ya aiki mala’ika, wanda ya karkashe dukan jarumawa da shugabanni da kuma hafsoshi a sansanin sarkin Assuriyawa. Saboda haka sai sarkin Assuriya ya janye zuwa ƙasarsa da kunya. Da ya shiga haikalin Allahnsa, sai waɗansu a cikin’ya’yansa maza suka yanka shi da takobi.
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.
Ta haka Ubangiji ya ceci Hezekiya da mutanen Urushalima daga hannun Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya da kuma daga hannun dukan sauran. Ya magance su a kowane gefe.
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.
Yawanci mutane suka kawo hadayun ƙonawa zuwa Urushalima wa Ubangiji da kuma kyautai masu daraja wa Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda. Daga lokacin zuwa gaba dukan ƙasashe suka girmama shi.
24 In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill. So he prayed to the LORD, who spoke to him and gave him a sign.
A kwanakin nan Hezekiya ya yi ciwo, ya yi kusan mutuwa. Sai ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, wanda ya amsa masa ya kuma ba shi alama.
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.
Amma zuciyar Hezekiya ta yi girman kai, bai kuwa yi amfani da alherin da aka nuna masa ba, saboda haka fushin Ubangiji ya sauko a kansa da kuma a kan Yahuda da Urushalima.
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.
Sai Hezekiya ya tuba daga girma kan zuciyarsa, haka ma mutanen Urushalima; saboda haka fushin Ubangiji bai zo a kansu a kwanakin Hezekiya ba.
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.
Hezekiya mai arziki da girma ne ƙwarai, ya kuma yi baitulmali domin azurfa da zinariyarsa da kuma domin duwatsu masu daraja, kayan yaji, garkuwoyi da kuma domin dukan kayayyaki masu daraja nasa.
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.
Ya kuma yi gine-gine domin ajiyar hatsi, sabon ruwa inabi da mai; ya kuma yi wuraren ajiyar kowane irin shanu dabam-dabam, da kuma turke domin tumaki.
29 He made cities for himself, and he acquired herds of sheep and cattle in abundance, for God gave him very great wealth.
Ya gina ƙauyuka ya kuma samo shanu da garkuna masu yawa, gama Allah ya ba shi arziki mai yawa sosai.
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.
Hezekiya ne ya datse ruwan bisa na maɓulɓular Gihon, ya sa ruwan ya gangara zuwa gefe yamma na Birnin Dawuda. Ya yi nasara a kome da ya yi.
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.
Amma da masu mulkin Babilon suka aika da jakadu su tambaye shi game alamar da ta faru a ƙasar, Allah ya rabu da shi don yă gwada shi don yă kuma san kome da yake cikin zuciyarsa.
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.
Sauran ayyukan mulkin Hezekiya da kuma kyawawa ayyukansa, suna a rubuce a cikin wahayin annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz, a cikin littafin sarakunan Yahuda da Isra’ila.
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.
Hezekiya ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi a kan tudu inda makabartan zuriyar Dawuda suke. Dukan Yahuda da kuma mutanen Urushalima suka girmama shi sa’ad da ya mutu. Sai Manasse ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
