< Isaiah 38 >

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.
A kwanakin nan sai Hezekiya ya kamu da ciwo ya kuma kusa ya mutu. Annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya tafi wurinsa ya kuma ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce ka shirya gidanka, domin za ka mutu; ba za ka warke ba.”
2 And Hezekiah, turning his face to the wall, made his prayer to the Lord, saying,
Hezekiya ya juye fuskarsa wajen bango ya kuma yi addu’a ga Ubangiji,
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.
“Ka tuna, ya Ubangiji, yadda na yi tafiya a gabanka da aminci da dukan zuciya na kuma yi abin da yake nagari a idanunka.” Sai Hezekiya ya yi kuka mai zafi.
4 Then the word of the Lord came to Isaiah, saying,
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Ishaya cewa,
5 Go to Hezekiah, and say, 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 give you fifteen more years of life.
“Ka tafi ka faɗa wa Hezekiya, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Allah na kakanka Dawuda, ya ce na ji addu’arka na kuma ga hawayenka; zan ƙara maka shekaru goma sha biyar ga rayuwarka.
6 And I will keep you and this town safe from the hands of the king of Assyria: and I will keep watch over this town.
Zan kuwa cece ka da wannan birni daga hannun sarkin Assuriya. Zan kiyaye wannan birni.
7 And Isaiah said, This is the sign the Lord will give you, that he will do what he has said:
“‘Ga alamar Ubangiji gare ka cewa Ubangiji zai aikata kamar yadda ya yi alkawari.
8 See, I will make the shade which has gone down on the steps of Ahaz with the sun, go back ten steps. So the shade went back the ten steps by which it had gone down.
Zan sa inuwar da rana ta yi a kan matakalar Ahaz ta koma baya da taki goma.’” Saboda haka inuwar ta koma da baya daga fuskar rana har taki goma.
9 The writing of Hezekiah, king of Judah, after he had been ill, and had got better from his disease.
Rubutun Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda bayan ciwonsa da kuma warkarwarsa.
10 I said, In the quiet of my days I am going down into the underworld: the rest of my years are being taken away from me. (Sheol h7585)
Na ce, “Cikin tsakiyar rayuwata dole in bi ta ƙofofin mutuwa a kuma raba ni da sauran shekaruna?” (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, I will not see the Lord, even the Lord in the land of the living: I will not see man again or those living in the world.
Na ce, “Ba zan ƙara ganin Ubangiji ba, Ubangiji a ƙasa ta masu rai; ba zan ƙara ga wani mutum, ko in kasance tare da waɗanda suke zama a wannan duniya ba.
12 My resting-place is pulled up and taken away from me like a herdsman's tent: my life is rolled up like a linen-worker's thread; I am cut off from the cloth on the frame: from day even to night you give me up to pain.
Kamar tentin makiyayi an rushe gidana aka kuma ƙwace ta daga gare ni. Kamar mai saƙa, na nannaɗe rayuwata, ya kuma yanke ni daga sandar saƙa; dare da rana ka kawo ni ga ƙarshe.
13 I am crying out with pain till the morning; it is as if a lion was crushing all my bones.
Na yi jira da haƙuri har safiya, amma kamar zaki ya kakkarya ƙasusuwana duka; dare da rana ka kawo ni ga ƙarshe.
14 I make cries like a bird; I give out sounds of grief like a dove: my eyes are looking up with desire; O Lord, I am crushed, take up my cause.
Na yi kuka kamar mashirare ko zalɓe, na yi kuka kamar kurciya mai makoki. Idanuna suka rasa ƙarfi yayinda na duba sammai. Na damu; Ya Ubangiji, ka taimake ni!”
15 What am I to say? seeing that it is he who has done it: all my time of sleeping I am turning from side to side without rest.
Amma me zan ce? Ya riga ya yi mini magana, shi kansa ne kuma ya aikata. Zan yi tafiya da tawali’u dukan kwanakina saboda wahalar raina.
16 O Lord, for this cause I am waiting for you, give rest to my spirit: make me well again, and let me come back to life.
Ubangiji, ta waɗannan abubuwa ne mutane suke rayuwa; ruhuna kuma yana samun rai a cikinsu shi ma. Ka maido mini da lafiya ka kuma sa na rayu.
17 See, in place of peace my soul had bitter sorrow. but you have kept back my soul from the underworld; for you have put all my sins out of your memory.
Tabbatacce wannan kuwa saboda ribata ne cewa in sha irin wahalan nan. Cikin ƙaunarka ka kiyaye ni daga ramin hallaka; ka sa dukan zunubaina a bayanka.
18 For the underworld is not able to give you praise, death gives you no honour: for those who go down into the underworld there is no hope in your mercy. (Sheol h7585)
Gama kabari ba zai yabe ka ba, matattu ba za su rera yabonka ba; waɗanda suka gangara zuwa rami ba za su sa zuciya ga amincinka ba. (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living man, he will give you praise, as I do this day: the father will give the story of your mercy to his children.
Masu rai, masu rai, su suke yabonka, kamar yadda nake yi a yau; iyaye za su faɗa wa’ya’yansu game da amincinka.
20 O Lord, quickly be my saviour; so we will make my songs to corded instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the Lord.
Ubangiji zai cece ni, za mu kuma rera da kayan kiɗi masu tsirkiya dukan kwanakinmu a cikin haikalin Ubangiji.
21 And Isaiah said, Let them take a cake of figs, and put it on the diseased place, and he will get well.
Ishaya ya riga ya ce, “Ku shirya curin da aka yi da’ya’yan ɓaure ku kuma shafa a marurun, zai kuwa warke.”
22 And Hezekiah said, What is the sign that I will go up to the house of the Lord?
Hezekiya ya riga ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Me zai zama alama ta cewa zan haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji?”
