< Isaiah 37 >

1 On hearing this report, King Hezekiah tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and entered the house of the LORD.
Sa’ad da Sarki Hezekiya ya ji haka, sai ya kyakkece rigunansa ya kuma sanya tsummoki ya tafi ya shiga haikalin Ubangiji.
2 And he sent Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the scribe, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz
Ya aiki Eliyakim sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda da kuma manyan firistoci, duka sanye da tsummoki, wurin Ishaya ɗan Amoz.
3 to tell him, “This is what Hezekiah says: Today is a day of distress, rebuke, and disgrace; for children have come to the point of birth, but there is no strength to deliver them.
Suka faɗa masa cewa, “Ga abin da Hezekiya ya ce wannan rana ce ta baƙin ciki da tsawatawa da shan kunya, sai ka ce sa’ad da’ya’ya kan zo matakin haihuwa sa’an nan a rasa ƙarfin haihuwarsu.
4 Perhaps the LORD your God will hear the words of the Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to defy the living God, and He will rebuke him for the words that the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that still survives.”
Mai yiwuwa Ubangiji Allahnka zai ji maganganun sarkin yaƙin da maigidansa, sarkin Assuriya, ya aika don yă zagi Allah mai rai, ya kuma tsawata masa saboda maganganun da Ubangiji Allahnka ya ji. Saboda haka ka yi addu’a saboda raguwar da suke da rai.”
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah went to Isaiah,
Sa’ad da shugabannin Sarki Hezekiya suka zo wurin Ishaya,
6 who replied, “Tell your master that this is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid of the words you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me.
sai Ishaya ya ce musu, “Ku faɗa wa maigidanku cewa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa. Kada ka ji tsoron abin da ka ji, maganganun nan da bayin sarkin Assuriya suka yi mini saɓo.
7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him so that he will hear a rumor and return to his own land, where I will cause him to fall by the sword.’”
Ka saurara! Zan sa ruhuna a cikinsa saboda sa’ad da ya ji wani labari, zai koma zuwa ƙasarsa, a can kuwa zan sa a kashe shi da takobi.’”
8 When the Rabshakeh heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish, he withdrew and found the king fighting against Libnah.
Sa’ad da sarkin yaƙin ya ji cewa sarkin Assuriya ya bar Lakish, sai ya janye ya kuma sami sarki yana yaƙi da Libna.
9 Now Sennacherib had been warned about Tirhakah king of Cush: “He has set out to fight against you.” On hearing this, Sennacherib sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
To, fa, Sennakerib ya sami labari cewa Tirhaka, mutumin Kush sarkin Masar, yana fitowa don yă yi yaƙi da shi. Sa’ad da ya ji haka, sai ya aiki jakadu zuwa wurin Hezekiya da wannan magana.
10 “Give this message to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you by saying that Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
“Ku faɗa wa Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda cewa kada ka bar allahn da ka dogara a kai ya ruɗe ka sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ba za a ba da Urushalima ga sarkin Assuriya ba.’
11 Surely you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the other countries, devoting them to destruction. Will you then be spared?
Tabbatacce ka ji abin da sarakunan Assuriya suka aikata ga dukan ƙasashe, suna hallaka su tas. Kai kuwa za ka tsira ne?
12 Did the gods of the nations destroyed by my fathers rescue those nations—the gods of Gozan, Haran, and Rezeph, and of the people of Eden in Telassar?
Allolin al’umman da kakannina suka hallaka sun cece su ne, allolin Gozan, Haran, Rezef da kuma na mutanen Eden waɗanda suke zama a Tel Assar?
13 Where are the kings of Hamath, Arpad, Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?’”
Ina sarkin Hamat yake, sarkin Arfad fa, sarkin Sefarfayim, ko na Hena ko na Iffa?”
14 So Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers, read it, and went up to the house of the LORD and spread it out before the LORD.
Hezekiya ya karɓi wasiƙar daga jakadun ya karanta ta. Sa’an nan ya haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji ya shimfiɗa ta a gaban Ubangiji.
15 And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD:
Sai Hezekiya ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji ya ce,
16 “O LORD of Hosts, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth.
“Ya Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, zaune a tsakanin kerubobi, kai kaɗai ne Allah a kan dukan masarautan duniya.
17 Incline Your ear, O LORD, and hear; open Your eyes, O LORD, and see. Listen to all the words that Sennacherib has sent to defy the living God.
Ka kasa kunne, ya Ubangiji, ka kuma ji; ka buɗe idanunka, ya Ubangiji, ka kuma gani; ka saurara ga dukan maganganun da Sennakerib ya aika don yă zagi Allah mai rai.
18 Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all these countries and their lands.
“Gaskiya ce, ya Ubangiji, cewa sarakunan Assuriyawa sun mai da dukan waɗannan mutane da ƙasashensu kango.
19 They have cast their gods into the fire and destroyed them, for they were not gods, but only wood and stone—the work of human hands.
Sun jefar da gumakansu cikin wuta suka kuma hallaka su, gama su ba alloli ba ne itace ne kawai da dutse, da hannuwan mutane suka sarrafa.
20 And now, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, O LORD, are God.”
Yanzu, ya Ubangiji Allahnmu, ka cece mu daga hannunsa, saboda masarautai a duniya su san cewa kai kaɗai ne, ya Ubangiji, Allah.”
21 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a message to Hezekiah: “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Because you have prayed to Me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,
Sa’an nan Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya aika da saƙo wa Hezekiya cewa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, ya faɗa. Saboda ka yi addu’a gare ni game da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya,
22 this is the word that the LORD has spoken against him: ‘The Virgin Daughter of Zion despises you and mocks you; the Daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head behind you.
ga abin da maganar Ubangiji ya faɗa a kansa, “Budurwa Diyar Sihiyona ta rena tana kuma maka ba’a. Diyar Urushalima tana kada kai yayinda kake gudu.
23 Whom have you taunted and blasphemed? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes in pride? Against the Holy One of Israel!
Wane ne ka zargi ka kuma yi wa saɓo? A kan wa ka tā da muryarka ka kuma daga idanu cikin fariya? A kan Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila!
24 Through your servants you have taunted the Lord, and you have said: “With my many chariots I have ascended to the heights of the mountains, to the remote peaks of Lebanon. I have cut down its tallest cedars, the finest of its cypresses. I have reached its farthest heights, the densest of its forests.
Ta wurin jakadunka ka jibge zage-zage a kan Ubangiji. Ka kuma ce, ‘Da kekunan yaƙina masu yawa na hau ƙwanƙolin duwatsu, ƙwanƙolin mafi tsayi na Lebanon. Na sassare al’ul mafi tsayi fir mafi kyau. Na kai can wuri mafi nisa na kurminsa.
25 I have dug wells and drunk foreign waters. With the soles of my feet I have dried up all the streams of Egypt.”
Na haƙa rijiyoyi a baƙuwar ƙasa na kuma sha ruwa a can. Da tafin ƙafafuna na busar da dukan rafuffukan Masar.’
26 Have you not heard? Long ago I ordained it; in days of old I planned it. Now I have brought it to pass, that you should crush fortified cities into piles of rubble.
“Ba ka ji ba cewa tun dā can na shirya ya zama haka? A kwanakin dā na kafa shi; yanzu na sa ya faru, cewa ka mai da birane masu mafaka zuwa tsibin ɓuraguzai.
27 Therefore their inhabitants, devoid of power, are dismayed and ashamed. They are like plants in the field, tender green shoots, grass on the rooftops, scorched before it is grown.
Mutanensu, suka rasa ƙarfi, sun firgita suka kuma sha kunya. Suka zama kamar tsire-tsire a gona, kamar tsire-tsiren ta suka tohu, kamar ciyawar da ya tsiro a kan rufi, wadda zafi ya yi wa ƙuna kafin tă yi girma.
28 But I know your sitting down, your going out and coming in, and your raging against Me.
“Amma na san inda kake zama da sa’ad da kakan fita ka kuma koma da yadda ka harzuƙa gāba da ni.
29 Because your rage and arrogance against Me have reached My ears, I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your mouth; I will send you back the way you came.’
Saboda ka harzuƙa gāba da ni kuma saboda girmankanka ya kai kunnuwana, zan sa ƙugiya a hancinka linzamina a bakinka, zan kuma sa ka koma ta hanyar da ka zo.
30 And this will be a sign to you, O Hezekiah: This year you will eat what grows on its own, and in the second year what springs from the same. But in the third year you will sow and reap; you will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
“Wannan zai zama alama gare ka, ya Hezekiya, “Wannan shekara za ka ci abin da ya yi girma da kansa, shekara ta biyu kuma abin da ya tsiro daga wancan. Amma a shekara ta uku za ka yi shuki ka kuma girba, za ka dasa gonakin inabi ka kuma ci’ya’yansu.
31 And the surviving remnant of the house of Judah will again take root below and bear fruit above.
Sauran da suka rage na gidan Yahuda kuwa za su yi saiwa a ƙarƙashi su kuma ba da’ya’ya a bisa.
32 For a remnant will go forth from Jerusalem, and survivors from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
Gama daga Urushalima raguwa za tă fito, kuma daga Dutsen Sihiyona ƙungiyar waɗanda suka tsira. Himmar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki zai cika wannan.
33 So this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria: ‘He will not enter this city or shoot an arrow into it. He will not come before it with a shield or build up a siege ramp against it.
“Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da sarkin Assuriya, “Ba zai shiga wannan birni ba ya harbe kibiya a nan. Ba zai zo gabansa da garkuwa ba ko ya gina mahaurai kewaye a kansa ba.
34 He will go back the way he came, and he will not enter this city,’
Ta hanyar da ya zo da ita zai koma; ba zai shiga wannan birni ba,” in ji Ubangiji.
35 ‘I will defend this city and save it for My own sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
“Zan kāre wannan birni in kuma cece shi, saboda girmana da kuma saboda sunan Dawuda bawana!”
36 Then the angel of the LORD went out and struck down 185,000 men in the camp of the Assyrians. When the people got up the next morning, there were all the dead bodies!
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya fita ya kuma karkashe mutane dubu ɗari da dubu tamanin da dubu biyar a sansanin Assuriya. Sa’ad da mutane suka farka kashegari, sai ga gawawwaki duk a kwance!
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.
Saboda haka Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya janye. Ya koma zuwa Ninebe ya zauna a can.
38 One day, while he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to the sword and escaped to the land of Ararat. And his son Esar-haddon reigned in his place.
Wata rana, yayinda yake yin sujada a haikalin allahnsa Nisrok,’ya’yansa maza Adrammelek da Sharezer suka kashe shi da takobi, suka kuma gudu zuwa ƙasar Ararat. Esar-Haddon ɗansa kuwa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
