Isaiah 36
1 In the fourteenth year of Hezekiah’s reign, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked and captured all the fortified cities of Judah.
A shekara ta goma sha huɗu ta mulkin Sarki Hezekiya, Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya kai wa dukan birane masu kagaran Yahuda yaƙi ya kuma kame su.
2 And the king of Assyria sent the Rabshakeh, with a great army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. And he stopped by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field.
Sai sarkin Assuriya ya aiki sarkin yaƙinsa tare da mayaƙa masu yawa daga Lakish zuwa wurin Sarki Hezekiya a Urushalima. Sa’ad da sarkin yaƙi ya tsaya a wuriyar Tafkin Tudu, a hanya zuwa Filin Mai Wanki,
3 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, went out to him.
Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka fita zuwa wurinsa.
4 The Rabshakeh said to them, “Tell Hezekiah that this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What is the basis of this confidence of yours?
Sai sarkin yaƙin ya ce musu, “Ku faɗa wa Hezekiya. “‘Ga abin da babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya, ya faɗa. A kan me kake dangana wannan ƙarfin halinka?
5 You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against me?
Ka ce kana da dabara da kuma ƙarfin mayaƙa, amma kana magana banza ce kawai. Ga wa ka dogara, da kake tayar mini?
6 Look now, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed of a staff that will pierce the hand of anyone who leans on it. Such is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Yanzu duba, kana dogara ga Masar, wannan ɗan tsinken kyauron dogarawa, wanda zai soki hannun mutum yă kuma ji masa rauni in ya dangana a kansa! Haka Fir’auna sarkin Masar yake ga duk wanda ya dogara da shi.
7 But if you say to me, ‘We trust in the LORD our God,’ is He not the One whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, ‘You must worship before this altar’?
Kuma in ka ce mini, “Mun dogara ga Ubangiji Allahnmu ne” ba shi ba ne Hezekiya ya rurrushe masujadan kan tudunsa da bagadansa, yana ce wa Yahuda da Urushalima, “Dole ku yi sujada wa gaban wannan bagade”?
8 Now, therefore, make a bargain with my master, the king of Assyria. I will give you two thousand horses—if you can put riders on them!
“‘Yanzu fa, bari in yi ciniki da maigidana, sarki Assuriya. Zan ba ka dawakai dubu biyu, in za ka sa mahaya a kansu!
9 For how can you repel a single officer among the least of my master’s servants when you depend on Egypt for chariots and horsemen?
Yaya za ka ƙi hafsan mafi ƙanƙanci na hafsoshin maigidana, ko da yake kana dogara ga Masar don kekunan yaƙi da mahayan dawakai?
10 So now, was it apart from the LORD that I have come up against this land to destroy it? The LORD Himself said to me, ‘Go up against this land and destroy it.’”
Ban da haka kuma, na zo ne in faɗa in kuma hallaka wannan ƙasa ba tare da Ubangiji ba? Ubangiji kansa ya faɗa mini in tasar wa wannan ƙasa in kuma hallaka ta.’”
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah said to the Rabshakeh, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, since we understand it. Do not speak to us in Hebrew in the hearing of the people on the wall.”
Sai Eliyakim, Shebna da Yowa suka ce wa sarkin yaƙin, “Ka yi haƙuri ka yi wa bayinka magana da Arameyanci, da yake muna jinsa. Kada ka yi mana magana da Yahudanci a kunnen mutanen da suke kan katanga.”
12 But the Rabshakeh replied, “Has my master sent me to speak these words only to you and your master, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are destined with you to eat their own dung and drink their own urine?”
Amma sarkin yaƙin ya amsa ya ce, “Kuna tsammani ga maigidanku da ku ne kawai maigidana ya aiko ni in yi waɗannan maganganu, ba ga mutanen da suke zama a kan katanga ba, waɗanda kamar ku, za su ci kashinsu su kuma sha fitsarinsu?”
13 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out loudly in Hebrew: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Sa’an nan sarkin yaƙin ya tsaya ya kuma yi kira da Yahudanci ya ce, “Ku ji kalmomin babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya!
14 This is what the king says: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he cannot deliver you.
Ga abin da sarki ya ce kada ku bar Hezekiya ya ruɗe ku. Ba zai cece ku ba!
15 Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD when he says, ‘The LORD will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’
Kada ku bar Hezekiya ya rarashe ku ku dogara ga Ubangiji sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Tabbatacce Ubangiji zai cece mu; ba za a ba da wannan birni a hannun sarkin Assuriya ba.’
16 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and his own fig tree, and drink water from his own cistern,
“Kada ku saurari Hezekiya. Ga abin da sarkin Assuriya ya faɗa. Ku nemi salama da ni ku kuma fito zuwa wurina. Ta haka kowa zai ci daga kuringarsa da kuma itacen ɓaurensa ya kuma sha ruwa daga tankinsa,
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own—a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
sai na zo na kuma kwashe ku zuwa ƙasa kamar taku, ƙasar hatsi da kuma sabon ruwan inabi, ƙasar abinci da gonakin inabi.
18 Do not let Hezekiah mislead you when he says, ‘The LORD will deliver us.’ Has the god of any nation ever delivered his land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
“Kada ku bar Hezekiya ya ruɗe ku sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ubangiji zai cece mu.’ Allahn wata al’umma ya taɓa ceci ƙasarsa daga hannun sarkin Assuriya?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Ina allolin Hamat da na Arfad? Ina allolin Sefarfayim? Sun fanshi Samariya daga hannuna?
20 Who among all the gods of these lands has delivered his land from my hand? How then can the LORD deliver Jerusalem from my hand?”
Wanne cikin dukan allolin ƙasashen nan ya iya ceton ƙasarsa daga gare ni? Yaya kuwa Ubangiji zai iya ceci Urushalima daga hannuna?”
21 But the people remained silent and did not answer a word, for Hezekiah had commanded, “Do not answer him.”
Amma mutanen suka yi shiru ba su kuwa ce kome ba, gama sarki ya yi umarni cewa, “Kada ku amsa masa.”
22 Then Hilkiah’s son Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and Asaph’s son Joah the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they relayed to him the words of the Rabshakeh.
Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda, da kuma Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka tafi wurin Hezekiya, da rigunansu a kyakkece, suka kuwa faɗa masa abin da sarkin yaƙin ya yi ta farfaɗa.
