2 Kings 19
1 And on hearing it, King Hezekiah took off his robe, and put on haircloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
To lok to Hezekiah siangpahrang mah thaih naah, a khukbuen to asih; buri kahni to angkhuk moe, Angraeng imthung ah a caeh.
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the chief priests, dressed in haircloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
Siangpahrang im ukkung Eliakim, ca tarikkung Shebna hoi kacoehta qaimanawk to buri kahni angkhuksak moe, Amoz capa Isaiah khaeah patoeh.
3 And they said to him, Hezekiah says, This day is a day of trouble and punishment and shame; for the children are ready to come to birth, but there is no strength to give birth to them.
Nihcae mah Isaiah khaeah, Hezekiah mah, Vaihni loe raihaih, thuitaekhaih hoi kasae thuihaih niah oh boeh; nawkta zahhaih atue phak boeh, toe nawkta tapen hanah tha om ai boeh.
4 It may be that the Lord your God will give ear to the words of the Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria, his master, sent to say evil things against the living God, and will make his words come to nothing: so then make your prayer for the rest of the people.
Kahing Sithaw to kasae thuih hanah, Assyria siangpahrang mah patoeh ih RabShakeh mah thuih ih lok to na Angraeng Sithaw mah thaih boeh kalang mue; na Angraeng Sithaw mah thaih ih loknawk baktiah thuitaek nasoe, nang mah doeh kanghmat kaminawk hanah lawkthui paeh, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o.
5 So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
Hezekiah siangpahrang mah patoeh ih kaminawk loe Isaiah khaeah caeh o.
6 And Isaiah said to them, This is what you are to say to your master: The Lord says, Be not troubled by the words which the servants of the king of Assyria have said against me in your hearing.
Isaiah mah nihcae khaeah, Na angraeng khaeah hae tiah thui pae oh; Angraeng mah, Na thaih o ih to baktih lok to zii o hmah; Assyria siangpahrang mah patoeh ih kami loe kai kasae a thuih.
7 See, I will put a spirit into him, and bad news will come to his ears, and he will go back to his land; and there I will have him put to death by the sword.
Khenah, anih khaeah poekhaih kalah ka suek pae han, anih mah tamthang thaih naah, angmah prae ah amlaem ving tih; angmah prae ah anih to sumsen hoiah ka takroeksak han, tiah thuih, tiah thui pae oh, tiah a naa.
8 So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah, for it had come to his ears that he had gone away from Lachish.
RabShakeh mah Assyria siangpahrang loe Lakish vangpui to caehtaak boeh, tiah thaih naah amlaem let; to naah Assyria siangpahrang mah Libnah vangpui to tuk, tiah anih mah panoek.
9 And when news came to him that Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, had made an attack on him, he sent representatives to Hezekiah again, saying,
Nang tuk hanah Ethiopia siangpahrang Tirhakah angzoh boeh, tiah Sennakerib mah thaih naah, Hezekiah khaeah laicaeh to patoeh moe, hae tiah lokpat pae.
10 This is what you are to say to Hezekiah, king of Judah: Let not your God, in whom is your faith, give you a false hope, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.
Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah khaeah, Na oep ih Sithaw mah, Jerusalem vangpui loe Assyria siangpahrang ban ah ka paek mak ai, tiah thuih ih lok hoiah na ling o hmah nasoe.
11 No doubt the story has come to your ears of what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, putting them to the curse; and will you be kept safe?
Khenah, Assyria siangpahrang mah praenawk to phraek boih boeh, tiah na thaih o boeh; nang to pahlong tang tih maw?
12 Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?
Kam panawk mah phraek ih prae kaminawk, Gozan, Haran, Rezeph hoi Tel Assar vangpui ah kaom Eden acaengnawk to, nihcae ih sithawnawk mah pahlong vaih maw?
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the town of Sepharvaim, of Hena and of Ivvah?
Hamath siangpahrang, Arpad siangpahrang, Sepharvaim siangpahrang, Hena hoi Ivvah siangpahrangnawk loe naa ah maw oh o boeh? tiah thui pae oh, tiah a naa.
14 And Hezekiah took the letter from the hands of those who had come with it; and after reading it, Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, opening the letter there before the Lord.
Hezekiah mah laicaehnawk taeng ih ca to hnuk naah a kroek; to pacoengah Angraeng ih im ah a caeh tahang moe, Angraeng hmaa ah ca to a khramh.
15 And Hezekiah made his prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord, the God of Israel, seated between the winged ones, you only are the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.
Hezekiah mah Angraeng khaeah, Aw cherubim salakah kaom, Israel Angraeng, Sithaw, long prae boih ah kaom Sithaw loe, nang khue ni; nangmah ni long hoi van hae na sak.
16 Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord, and let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see; take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.
Angraeng, na naa to patuengh loe, tahngai ah; Angraeng, na mik to padaih loe, khenah; kahing Sithaw kasae thuih hanah, Sennakerib mah patoeh ih kami mah thuih ih lok to tahngai ah.
17 Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have made waste the nations and their lands,
Angraeng, Assyria siangpahrangnawk mah praenawk hoi angmacae ih prae to paro o boih tangtang boeh.
18 And have given their gods to the fire; for they were no gods, but wood and stone, the work of men's hands; so they have given them to destruction.
Angmacae ih sithawnawk to hmai ah tik o; to sithawnawk loe Sithaw tangtang na ai ni; kami ban hoi sakcop ih thlung hoi thingnawk rumram ah ni oh o, to pongah nihcae mah paro o boeh.
19 But now, O Lord our God, give us salvation from his hands, so that it may be clear to all the kingdoms of the earth that you and only you, O Lord, are God.
To pongah vaihiah, Aw kaicae ih Angraeng Sithaw, anih ih ban thung hoiah kaicae hae pahlong ah, to tiah ni long ih praenawk boih mah, Angraeng, Sithaw loe, nang khue ni, tiah panoek o tih, tiah lawkthuih.
20 Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, The prayer which you have made to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, has come to my ears.
Amoz capa Isaiah mah Hezekiah khaeah, Israel Angraeng, Sithaw mah, Siangpahrang Sennakerib pongah kai khaeah lawk na thuih ih lok to ka thaih boeh, tiah thuih, tiah lokpaet pae.
21 This is the word which the Lord has said about him: In the eyes of the virgin daughter of Zion you are shamed and laughed at; the daughter of Jerusalem has made sport of you.
Anih kawng pongah Angraeng mah, Kacuem tangla Zion canu mah nang to patoek moe, ang pahnui thuih; Jerusalem canu mah lu ang haek thuih.
22 Against whom have you said evil and bitter things? against whom has your voice been loud and your eyes lifted up? even against the Holy One of Israel.
Nang loe mi maw ka sae na thuih? Mi maw lok hoiah na hang thuih moe, mi maw amoekhaih mik na padai thuih? Ciimcai Israel Sithaw to to tiah na sak.
23 You have sent your servants with evil words against the Lord, and have said, With all my war-carriages I have come up to the top of the mountains, to the inmost parts of Lebanon; its tall cedars will be cut down, and the best trees of its woods; I will come up into his highest places, into his thick woods.
Laicaehnawk pongah Angraeng kasae thuihaih to na tongh; nang mah, Pop parai hrang lakok hoiah maesom nui ah maw, kasang koek Lebanon mae nuiah maw ka dawh moe, kasang koek sidar thing hoi kahoih koek hmaica thing to ka pakhruk han; angthla koek ohhaih ahmuen, thingthai qumpo kahoih koek ohhaih tupui ahmuen doeh ka phak boeh.
24 I have made water-holes and taken their waters, and with my foot I have made all the rivers of Egypt dry.
Minawk prae ah tui to ka takaeh moe, ka naek; ka khok hoiah Izip prae vacong ih tuinawk to ka kangsak boih boeh, tiah na thuih.
25 Has it not come to your ears how I did it long before, purposing it in times long past? Now I have given effect to my design, so that by you strong towns might be turned into masses of broken walls.
Kai mah to hmuen to canghniah kawbangmaw ka sak moe, ka ohsak, tiah na panoek ai maw? Vaihiah nangmah ih sipae thung ih vangpuinawk to nam rosak moe, thlung pakhuenghaih ahmuen ah omsakkung ah na oh hanah ka sak boeh.
26 This is why their townsmen had no power, they were broken and put to shame; they were like the grass of the field and the green plant, like grass on the house-tops.
To pongah vangpui kaminawk loe thazok o; palungboeng o moe, dawnraihaih hoiah oh o; nihcae loe taw ih qam baktih, qam kahing baktih, imphu ih phroh baktih, qoeng tahang khuek ai naah kazaem kamtongkung baktiah ni oh o.
27 But I have knowledge of your getting up and your resting, of your going out and your coming in.
Toe na ohhaih ahmuen, na tacawthaih hoi na kunhaih, ka nuiah palung na phuihaihnawk to ka panoek.
28 Because your wrath against me and your words of pride have come up to my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my cord in your lips, and I will make you go back by the way you came.
Ka nuiah palung na phuihaih, nam oekhaih to ka thaih pongah, na hnah ah cakoih hoiah kang tathok moe, na pakha ah sum kang bah pacoengah, nang zohhaih loklam hoiah kam laemsak let han, tiah thuih boeh.
29 And this will be the sign to you: you will get your food this year from what comes up of itself; and in the second year from the produce of the same; and in the third year you will put in your seed and get in the grain and make vine-gardens and take of their fruit.
Hae loe nang han angmathaih ah om tih; Hezekiah, nang loe angmah koehah amprawk thingthai to vaining saning thung na caa ueloe, amla ah loe, kamprawk patoeng hmuen to na caa tih; toe saning thumto haih naah loe, cang na tuh ueloe, na aat tih; misur takha to sah ah loe, athaih to caa ah.
30 And those of Judah who are still living will again take root in the earth and give fruit.
Kaloih Judah imthung takoh kaminawk loe, atlim bangah tangzuun to sah o ueloe, ranui bangah athaih to athai o tih.
31 For from Jerusalem those who have been kept safe will go out, and those who are still living will go out of Mount Zion: by the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.
Kanghmat kaminawk loe Jerusalem vangpui thung hoiah angzo o tih, kaloih kaminawk loe Zion mae nui hoiah angzo o tih; misatuh Angraeng Sithaw loe thacak pongah, to hmuen to akoepsak tih.
32 For this cause the Lord says about the king of Assyria, He will not come into this town, or send an arrow against it; he will not come before it with arms, or put up an earthwork against it;
To pongah Assyria siangpahrang kawng pongah Angraeng mah, Anih loe hae vangpui thungah akun mak ai, palaa maeto doeh kaat mak ai; aphawnawk hoi angzo mak ai ueloe, vangpui takuihaih loklam doeh takae mak ai.
33 By the way he came he will go back, and he will not get into this town, says the Lord.
Anih loe angmah angzohhaih loklam hoiah amlaem let tih; hae vangpui thungah akun mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih boeh.
34 For I will keep this town safe, for my honour, and for the honour of my servant David.
Kaimah hoi ka tamna David pongah, hae vangpui hae ka pathlung moe, ka pahlong han, tiah a thuih.
35 And that night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death in the army of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men; and when the people got up early in the morning, there was nothing to be seen but dead bodies.
To na aqum ah Angraeng ih van kami to caeh moe, Assyria misatuh kami sang cumvai, sang quitazet, sang pangato a hum; khawnbang khawnthaw angthawkhaih tue phak naah loe, kami qok cing ah oh.
36 So Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went back to his place at Nineveh.
To pongah Assyria siangpahrang Sennakerib mah ataihaih ahmuen to caehtaak, im ah amlaem moe, Nineveh vangpui ah oh.
37 And it came about, when he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to death with the sword; and they went in flight into the land of Ararat. And Esar-haddon his son became king in his place.
Nito naah, tempul thung ah angmah ih sithaw Nisroch to a bok naah, a caa hnik Adramelek hoi Sharezer mah anih to sumsen hoiah takroek maat moe, Armenia prae ah cawnh hoi taak ving. To pacoengah anih zuengah a capa Esar-Haddon to siangpahrang ah oh.
