< Isaiah 37 >

1 On hearing this report, King Hezekiah tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and entered the house of the LORD.
Ket napasamak nga idi nangngeg ni Ari Ezekias ti impadamagda, rinay-abna dagiti kawesna, nagkawes isuna iti nakersang a lupot, ket simrek iti balay ni Yahweh.
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
Imbaonna ni Eliakim a mangimatmaton iti palasio, ni Sebna nga eskriba, ken dagiti panglakayen dagiti padi a mapan kenni Isaias a profeta a lalaki a putot ni Amos, nakakawesda amin iti nakersang a lupot.
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.
Kinunada kenkuana, “Kuna ni Ezekias, 'Daytoy nga aldaw ket aldaw ti panagsagaba, pannakatubngar, ken pannakaibabain, kas iti tiempo a dandanin a maipasngay ti maysa a maladaga, ngem awan ti pigsa ti ina a mangipasngay iti anakna.
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.”
Nalabit a denggen ni Yahweh a Diosmo dagiti sasao ti panguloen a mangidadaulo, nga imbaon ti ari ti Asiria nga apona a mangkarit iti sibibiag a Dios, ket tubngarenna dagiti sasao a nangngeg ni Yahweh a Diosmo. Ita, ikararagam dagiti nabatbati nga adda pay laeng ditoy.”
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah went to Isaiah,
Napan ngarud kenni Isaias dagiti adipen ni Ari Ezekias,
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.
ket kinuna ni Isaias kadakuada, “Ibagayo iti apoyo: 'Kuna ni Yahweh, “Saanka nga agbuteng kadagiti sasao a nangngegmo, a pananglais kaniak dagiti adipen ti ari ti Asiria.
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.’”
Denggem, mangikabilak iti maysa nga espiritu kenkuana, ket makangngegto isuna iti damag ket agsubli isuna iti dagana. Ipapasagkonto isuna babaen iti kampilan iti bukodna a daga.'”
8 When the Rabshakeh heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish, he withdrew and found the king fighting against Libnah.
Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti panguloen a mangidadaulo ket nasarakanna ti ari ti Asiria a makigubgubat iti Libna, ta nangngegna a pimmanaw ti ari iti Lakis.
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,
Ket nangngeg ni Senakerib a nagsagana a manggubat kenkuana ni Tirhaka nga ari ti Etiopia ken Egipto, isu a nangibaon manen isuna kadagiti mensahero kenni Ezekias, kastoy ti kuna ti mensahe:
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.
“Ibagayo kenni Ezekias nga ari ti Juda, 'Saanmo nga ipalubos nga allilawennaka ti Diosmo a pagtaltalkam, a kunana, “Saan a maiyawat ti Jerusalem iti ima ti ari ti Asiria.”
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?
Kitaem, nangngegmo no ania ti inaramid dagiti ari ti Asiria kadagiti amin a dagdaga babaen iti naan-anay a panangdadaelda kadakuada. Isu a maispalkanto kadi?
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?
Inispal kadi ida dagiti dios dagiti nasion, dagiti nasion a dinadael dagiti ammak: ti Gozan, Haran, Resef, ken dagiti tattao ti Eden idiay Telasar?
13 Where are the kings of Hamath, Arpad, Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?’”
Sadino ti ayan ti ari ti Hamat, ti ari ti Arpad, ti ari dagiti siudad ti Sefarvaim, ti Hena, ken Ivva?'”
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.
Inawat ni Ezekias daytoy a surat manipud kadagiti mensahero ket binasana daytoy. Ket simmang-at isuna a napan iti balay ni Yahweh ket inukradna daytoy iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.
15 And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD:
Nagkararag ni Ezekias kenni Yahweh:
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.
“O Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, sika a nakatugaw iti ngatoen dagiti kerubim, sika laeng ti Dios a mangiturturay iti amin a pagarian iti lubong. Pinarsuam ti langit ken ti daga.
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.
Ibaw-ingmo ti lapayagmo, O Yahweh, ket denggem. Luktam dagiti matam, O Yahweh, ket kitaem, ken denggem dagiti sasao ni Senakerib, nga impatulodna tapno laisenna ti sibibiag a Dios.
18 Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all these countries and their lands.
Pudno, O Yahweh, a dinadael dagiti ari ti Asiria dagiti amin a nasion ken dagiti dagada.
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.
Pinuoranda dagiti dios dagidiay a nasion, ta saanda a dios no di ket aramid dagiti ima dagiti tattao, kayo ken bato laeng. Isu a dinadael ida dagiti taga-Asiria.
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.”
Isu nga ita, O Yahweh a Diosmi, isalakannakami manipud iti pannakabalinna, tapno maammoan koma dagiti amin a pagarian iti lubong a sika laeng ti agmaymaysa a Yahweh.
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,
Ket nangipatulod iti mensahe ni Isaias nga anak ni Amos kenni Ezekias, a kunana, “Kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, 'Gapu ta nagkararagka kaniak maipapan kenni Senakerib nga ari ti Asiria,
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.
daytoy ti sao nga imbaga ni Yahweh maipapan kenkuana: “Um-umsiennaka ti birhen nga anak ti Sion ken katkatawaannaka tapno laisennaka; iwingwingiwing iti anak ti Jerusalem ti ulona kenka.
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!
Siasino kadi ti kinarit ken linaismo? Ken siasino kadi ti pinukkawam ken nangitangadam kadagiti matam a sitatangsit? Iti Nasantoan ti Israel.
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.
Babaen kadagiti adipenmo, kinaritmo ti Apo ket kinunam, ‘Simmang-atak kadagiti nangangato a tapaw dagiti bantay a kaduak dagiti adu a karwahek, iti kangatoan a disso ti Lebanon. Pukanekto dagiti natayag a sedro daytoy ken dagiti kasasayaatan a kayo ti saleng sadiay, ken sumrekakto iti kaadaywan a nangato a disso, ti nabunga a bakir daytoy.
25 I have dug wells and drunk foreign waters. With the soles of my feet I have dried up all the streams of Egypt.”
Nangkaliak kadagiti bubon ken imminumak iti danum dagiti gangganaet; pinatianak dagiti amin a karayan ti Egipto iti dapan dagiti sakak.'
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.
Saanmo kadi a nangngeg no kasano nga inkeddengko daytoy idi un-una a panawen ken no kasano nga inaramidko daytoy idi un-una a tiempo? Ita, ipatpatungpalko daytoy. Addaka ditoy tapno pagbalinen a gabsuon dagiti narba dagiti siudad a narigat a maraut.
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.
Dagiti agnanaed kadagitoy, a nakapsut ket mariribukan ken mapababainan. Kaslada kadagiti mulmula iti tay-ak, nalangto a ruot, ti ruot iti atep wenno iti tay-ak, a magango no puk-oyan ti napudot nga angin manipud iti daya.
28 But I know your sitting down, your going out and coming in, and your raging against Me.
Ngem ammok ti panagtugawmo, ti panagruarmo, ti panagserrekmo, ken ti panagpungtotmo kaniak.
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.’
Gapu iti panagpungtotmo kaniak, ken gapu ta dimmanun kadagiti lapayagko ti kinatangsitmo, ikabilkonto ti kaw-itko iti agongmo, ken busalankanto; isublikanto iti isu met laeng a dalan nga immayam.”
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.
Daytoyto ti pagilasinam: Iti daytoy a tawen, mangankayonto kadagiti balang, ken iti maikadua a tawen ket ti agsaringit manipud iti dayta. Ngem iti maikatlo a tawen, masapul nga agmula ken agapitkayo, agmulakayo kadagiti ubas ket kanenyo dagiti bungada.
31 And the surviving remnant of the house of Judah will again take root below and bear fruit above.
Ti nabati a nakalasat iti balay ti Juda ket agramutto manen ken agbunga.
32 For a remnant will go forth from Jerusalem, and survivors from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
Ta rummuarto dagiti nabati manipud iti Jerusalem; rummuarto dagiti nakalasat manipud iti Bantay Sion.' Aramidento daytoy iti regta ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.”
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.
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan iti ari ti Asiria: “Saanto isuna a sumrek iti daytoy a siudad, wenno mangibiat iti pana ditoy. Ken saanto isuna nga umay iti sangoanan daytoy nga addaan iti kalasag wenno mangaramid iti pagbatayanna a manglakub iti daytoy.
34 He will go back the way he came, and he will not enter this city,’
Ti dalan a nagnaanna nga immay ket isunto met laeng ti dalan a pagnaanna a pumanaw; saan isuna a sumrek iti daytoy a siudad. Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
35 ‘I will defend this city and save it for My own sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
Ta salaknibakto ken ispalekto daytoy a siudad, gapu kaniak ken gapu kenni David nga adipenko.”
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!
Kalpasanna, rimmuar ti anghel ni Yahweh ket rinautna ti kampo dagiti taga-Asiria, pinatayna ti 185, 000 a mannakigubat. Idi bimmangon dagiti tattao iti parbangon, agkakaiwara dagiti bangkay.
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.
Isu a pimmanaw ni Senakerib nga ari ti Asiria iti Israel ket nagawid ken nagtalinaed iti Nineve.
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.
Saan a nagbayag, kabayatan nga agdaydayaw isuna iti balay ni Nisroc a diosna, pinatay isuna dagiti annakna a ni Adramalec ken ni Sarazer babaen iti kampilan. Ket naglibasda a napan iti daga ti Ararat. Ket ni Esarhadon nga anakna ti nagturay a kas ari a simmukat kenkuana.
