< 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.
Mumazuva iwayo Hezekia akarwara zvokuda kufa. Muprofita Isaya mwanakomana waAmozi akaenda kwaari akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: Gadzira imba yako, nokuti uchafa, hausi kuzorarama.”
2 Then, turning his face to the wall, he made his prayer to the Lord, saying,
Hezekia akatendeukira kumadziro uye akanyengetera kuna Jehovha akati,
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.
“Haiwa Jehovha, rangarirai kuti ndakafamba sei pamberi penyu nokutendeka uye nomwoyo wose uye ndikaita zvakanaka pamberi penyu.” Hezekia akachema zvikuru.
4 Now before Isaiah had gone out of the middle of the town, the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
Isaya asati abva paruvanze rwapakati, shoko raJehovha rakauya kwaari richiti,
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.
“Dzokera undoudza Hezekia, mutungamiri wavanhu vangu kuti, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari wababa vako Dhavhidhi: Ndanzwa munyengetero wako uye ndaona misodzi yako; ndichakuporesa. Nezuva retatu kubva zvino uchakwira kutemberi yaJehovha.
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.
Ndichawedzera paupenyu hwako makore gumi namashanu. Uye ndichakurwira iwe neguta rino. Ndicharwira guta iri kubva muruoko rwamambo weAsiria nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwomuranda wangu Dhavhidhi.’”
7 Then Isaiah said, Take a cake of figs. So they took it and put it on his wound, and he got better.
Ipapo Isaya akati, “Gadzirai bundu ramaonde.” Vakaita saizvozvo vakariisa pamota, uye akapora.
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 akanga abvunza Isaya achiti, “Chiratidzo chichava chei chokuti Jehovha achandiporesa uye kuti ndichakwira kutemberi yaJehovha pazuva retatu kubva zvino here?”
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?
Isaya akapindura akati, “Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chaJehovha kwauri kuti Jehovha achaita zvaavimbisa: Ko, ungada kuti mumvuri uende nhambwe gumi mberi here kana kudzoka mushure nhambwe gumi?”
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 akati, “Zvakareruka kuti mumvuri uende mberi nhambwe gumi. Saka ngaudzoke nhambwe gumi mushure.”
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.
Ipapo muprofita Isaya akadana kuna Jehovha, Jehovha akadzorera mumvuri shure nhambwe gumi pamanera aAhazi.
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.
Panguva iyo yaMerodhaki-Bharadhani, mwanakomana waBharadhani mambo weBhabhironi, akatumira tsamba nechipo kuna Hezekia, nokuti akanga anzwa nezvokurwara kwaHezekia.
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 akagamuchira nhume akadziratidza zvose zvakanga zviri mumatura ake, sirivha negoridhe, nezvinonhuhwira, namafuta anokosha, nedura rezvombo nezvose zvaiwanikwa pakati pepfuma yake. Hezekia haana chaasina kuvaratidza mumuzinda make kana muushe hwake hwose.
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.
Ipapo muprofita Isaya akaenda kuna Mambo Hezekia akamubvunza akati, “Zvanzi kudini navarume avo, uye vabvepi?” Hezekia akapindura akati, “Vabva kunyika iri kure. Vabva kuBhabhironi.”
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.
Muprofita akamubvunza akati, “Chii chavaona mumuzinda mako?” Hezekia akapindura akati, “Vaona zvose zviri mumuzinda mangu. Hapana chinhu chiri pakati pepfuma yangu chandisina kuvaratidza.”
16 And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Give ear to the word of the Lord.
Ipapo Isaya akati kuna Hezekia, “Chinzwa shoko raJehovha:
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.
Zvirokwazvo nguva ichasvika yokuti zvose zviri mumuzinda mako, nezvose zvakaunganidzwa nababa vako kusvikira pazuva ranhasi, zvichatakurwa zvichiendeswa kuBhabhironi. Hapana chichasara, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
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.
Uye vamwe vavanakomana vako, venyama yako chaivo neropa rako, vauchabereka, vachatorwa kubva kwauri, uye vachava varanda mumuzinda wamambo weBhabhironi.”
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 akapindura akati, “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.” Nokuti akafungawo akati, “Hakuchavi here norugare nokudzivirirwa munguva youpenyu hwangu?”
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?
Kana zviri zvimwe zvakaitika panguva yokutonga kwaHezekia, nezvose zvaakaita uye namavakiro aakaita dziva nomugero waakauyisa nawo mvura muguta, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha?
21 And Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers; and Manasseh his son became king in his place.
Hezekia akazorora namadzibaba ake. Manase mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
