2 Kings 20
1 In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, The Lord says, Put your house in order, for your death is near.
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Hezekia dze dɔ eye wòɖo kudo nu. Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi yi egbɔ eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ɖɔ wò aƒe ɖo elabena èle kuku ge eye màhaya o.’”
2 Then, turning his face to the wall, he made his prayer to the Lord, saying,
Hezekia trɔ mo ɖo ɖe gli ŋu eye wòdo gbe ɖa, ɖe kuku na Yehowa be,
3 O Lord, keep in mind how I have been true to you with all my heart, and have done what is good in your eyes. And Hezekiah gave way to bitter weeping.
“Oo Yehowa, ɖo ŋku ale si mezɔ le ŋkuwòme le anukwareɖiɖi me kple ale si metsɔ nye dzi blibo la wɔ nu si nyo le ŋkuwò me la dzi.” Eye Hezekia fa avi vevie.
4 Now before Isaiah had gone out of the middle of the town, the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
Hafi Yesaya nado le xɔxɔnu titinatɔ me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va nɛ bena,
5 Go back and say to Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, The Lord, the God of David your father, says, Your prayer has come to my ears, and I have seen your weeping; see, I will make you well: on the third day you will go up to the house of the Lord.
“Trɔ nàyi ɖagblɔ na Hezekia, nye dukɔ ƒe kplɔla be, ‘Ale Yehowa, fofowò David ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: Mese wò gbedodoɖa eye mekpɔ wò aɖatsiwo. Mayɔ dɔ wò. Ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi la, àyi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
6 I will give you fifteen more years of life; and I will keep you and this town safe from the hands of the king of Assyria; I will keep this town safe, for my honour, and for the honour of my servant David.
Mada ƒe wuiatɔ̃ ɖe wò agbenɔƒewo dzi eye maɖe wò kple du sia tso Asiria fia ƒe asi me. Maʋli du sia ta le nye ŋkɔ kple nye dɔla David ta.’”
7 Then Isaiah said, Take a cake of figs. So they took it and put it on his wound, and he got better.
Tete Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Tu gbotsetsewo wòabla nyuie.” Wotui eye wokae ɖo ƒoƒoeawo dzi nɛ eye eƒe lãme se.
8 And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, What is to be the sign that the Lord will make me well, and that I will go up to the house of the Lord on the third day?
Hezekia bia Yesaya be, “Nu kae anye dzesi be Yehowa ayɔ dɔm eye mayi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi?”
9 And Isaiah said, This is the sign the Lord will give you, that he will do what he has said; will the shade go forward ten degrees or back?
Yesaya ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Esiae nye Yehowa ƒe dzesi na wò be Yehowa awɔ nu si ƒe ŋugbe wòdo; àdi be vɔvɔli nayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo loo wòayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewoa?”
10 And Hezekiah said in answer, It is a simple thing for the shade to go forward; but let it go back ten degrees.
Hezekia gblɔ nɛ be, “Enye nu bɔbɔe be vɔvɔli nayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewo, eya ta na wòayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo boŋ.”
11 Then Isaiah the prophet made prayer to the Lord, and he made the shade go back ten degrees from its position on the steps of Ahaz.
Tete Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya do ɣli na Yehowa eye Yehowa na vɔvɔli yi megbe ɖoƒe ewo le Ahaz ƒe ɣega te.
12 At that time, Merodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters with an offering to Hezekiah, because he had news that Hezekiah had been ill.
Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Marduk Baladan, si nye Babilonia fia Baladan ƒe vi la dɔ amewo ɖa be woatsɔ nunana ayi na Hezekia elabena ese be edze dɔ.
13 And Hezekiah was glad at their coming and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil of great price, and the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores; there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which Hezekiah did not let them see.
Hezekia xɔ wo nyuie eye wòtsɔ eƒe kesinɔnuwo katã fia wo. Kesinɔnu siawoe nye klosalo, sika, atikeʋeʋĩ, ami xɔasiwo kple aʋawɔnuwo. Naneke mele fiasã la alo dukɔ la me esi Hezekia metsɔ fia wo o.
14 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, What did these men say and where did they come from? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, even from Babylon.
Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya yi Fia Hezekia gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka dim ame siawo le? Afi ka wotso?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Wotso Babilonia ke.”
15 And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah said in answer, They saw everything in my house: there is nothing among my stores which I did not let them see.
Yesaya biae be, “Nu kawoe wokpɔ le wò fiasã me?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Metsɔ nye kesinɔnuwo katã fia wo.”
16 And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Give ear to the word of the Lord.
Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖo to Yehowa ƒe nya sia:
17 Truly, days are coming when everything in your house, and whatever your fathers have put in store till this day, will be taken away to Babylon: all will be gone, says the Lord.
Ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esiwo me nu sia nu si le wò fiasã me, kpe ɖe nu siwo katã fofowòwo dzra ɖo ŋu la, woalɔ wo katã ayi ɖe Babilonia. Naneke masusɔ o. Yehowae gblɔe.
18 And your sons, the offspring of your body, they will take away to be unsexed servants in the house of the king of Babylon.
Wò dzidzimevi aɖewo kple vi siwo wodzi na wò ŋutɔ hã, woakplɔ wo adzoe, eye woazu ŋutsu tata siwo anye aƒedzikpɔlawo le Babilonia fia ƒe fiasã me.”
19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which you have said. Then he said, ... if in my time there is peace and righteousness?
Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe nya si nègblɔ la nyo.” Ke nu si tututu wòbu le eɖokui me lae nye, “Ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ ɖeɖe nanɔ anyi le nye ŋutɔ nye agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo me ko!”
20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his power, and how he made the pool and the stream, to take water into the town, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Woŋlɔ Hezekia ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa, nu gã siwo wòwɔ abe ta kple tɔʋu siwo wòɖe ene kple ale si wòhe tsi va dua me la ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
21 And Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers; and Manasseh his son became king in his place.
Esi Hezekia ku la, via Manase ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
