< Kings IV 20 >
1 In those days was Ezekias sick [even] to death. And the prophet Esaias the son of Amos came in to him, and said to him, Thus says the Lord, Give charge to your household; [for] you shall die, and not live.
Nʼoge ahụ, Hezekaya rịara ọrịa ruo na ọ gaara anwụ. Aịzaya onye amụma nwa Emọz bịakwutere ya sị ya, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, Dozie ezinaụlọ gị, nʼihi na ị ga-anwụ. Ị gaghị esite nʼute ọrịa a bilie.”
2 And Ezekias turned to the wall, and prayed to the Lord, saying,
Hezekaya tụgharịrị chee ihu ya nʼaja ụlọ, kpee ekpere nye Onyenwe anyị, sị,
3 Lord, remember, I pray you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your eyes. And Ezekias wept with a great weeping.
“Chetakwa, Onyenwe anyị, otu m si jegharịa nʼihu gị nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi, jiri obi m niile fee gị ofufe, ma meekwa ihe dị mma nʼanya gị.” Hezekaya bekwara akwa nke ukwuu.
4 And Esaias was in the middle court, and the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
Tupu Aịzaya esite nʼetiti ogige ụlọeze pụọ, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị rutere ya ntị, sị ya:
5 Turn back, and you shall say to Ezekias the ruler of my people, Thus says the Lord God of your father David, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will heal you: on the third day you shall go up to the house of the Lord.
“Gaghachi azụ, gaa gwa Hezekaya, onye na-achị ndị m, ‘Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke nna gị Devid, kwuru: Anụla m ekpere gị, ahụkwala m anya mmiri akwa gị, aga m agwọ gị. Aga m eme ka ahụ dị gị ike nʼụbọchị nke atọ site taa, mgbe ahụ ị ga-aga nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
6 And I will add to your days fifteen years; and I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians, and I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant's David sake.
Aga m atụkwasị afọ iri na ise nʼụbọchị ndụ gị. Aga m anapụtakwa gị na obodo a site nʼaka eze Asịrịa. Aga m echebe obodo a nʼihi mụ onwe m, na nʼihi Devid, bụ ohu m.’”
7 And he said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it upon the ulcer, and he shall be well.
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya sịrị, “Kwadoonụ mmanụ fiig dị ọkụ.” Ha mere nke a, teekwasị ya nʼelu etuto ahụ, ahụ dịkwara ya mma.
8 And Ezekias said to Esaias, What [is] the sign that the Lord will heal me, and I shall go up to the house of the Lord on the third day?
Mgbe ahụ, Hezekaya jụrụ Aịzaya sị, “Gịnị ga-abụ ihe ịrịbama na Onyenwe anyị ga-agwọ m, na m ga-aga nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị nke atọ na-abịa nʼihu?”
9 And Esaias said, This [is] the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will perform the word which he has spoken, the shadow [of the dial] shall advance ten degrees: [or] if it should go back ten degrees [this would also be the sign].
Aịzaya zara, “Nke a bụ ihe ama Onyenwe anyị nye gị na Onyenwe anyị ga-emezu ihe o kwere na nkwa. Ị chọrọ ka onyinyo a gaa nʼihu ihe nrigo iri, ka ọ bụ ka ọ laa azụ ihe nrigo iri?”
10 And Ezekias said, [It is] a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return ten degrees backward on the dial.
Hezekaya zara sị, “Ọ dị mfe ka onyinyo gaa nʼihu nzọ ụkwụ iri. Ma mee ka onyinyo a laa azụ ihe nrigo iri.”
11 And Esaias the prophet cried to the Lord: and the shadow returned back ten degrees on the dial.
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya, onye amụma rịọrọ Onyenwe anyị ka o meere Hezekaya nke a. Onyenwe anyị mekwara ka onyinyo laghachi azụ ihe nrigo iri dịka o si gbada nʼihe nrigo ụlọ Ehaz.
12 At that time Marodach Baladan, son of Baladan king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Ezekias, because he had heard that Ezekias was sick.
Nʼoge ahụ, Merodak-Baladan, nwa Baladan, bụ eze Babilọn zigaara Hezekaya akwụkwọ ozi ekele na onyinye, nʼihi na ọ nụrụ na Hezekaya rịara ọrịa.
13 And Ezekias rejoiced at them, and showed all the house of his spices, the silver and the gold, the spices, and the fine oil, and the armoury, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing which Ezekias did not show them in his house, and in all his dominion.
Hezekaya nabatara ndị ozi ahụ gosi ha ihe niile dị nʼụlọakụ ya, ọlaọcha, na ọlaedo, ụda dị iche iche na-esi isi ụtọ na ezigbo mmanụ oliv, ụlọ ebe ngwa agha ya niile dị, na ihe niile bụ akụ o nwere. Ọ dịghị ihe dị nʼụlọeze ya maọbụ nʼalaeze ya niile nke ọ na-egosighị ha.
14 And Esaias the prophet went in to king Ezekias, and said to him, What said these men? and whence came they to you? And Ezekias said, they came to me from a distant land, [even] from Babylon.
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya onye amụma jekwuru eze Hezekaya jụọ ya sị, “Gịnị ka ndị ikom ndị ahụ kwuru? Ebeekwa ka ha si bịakwute gị?” Hezekaya zara sị, “Ọ bụ nʼala dị anya ka ha si, ha si Babilọn.”
15 And he said, What saw they in your house? And he said, They saw all things that [are] in my house: there was nothing in my house which I showed not to them; yes, all that was in my treasures also.
Onye amụma jụrụ, “Gịnị ka ha hụrụ nʼụlọ gị?” Hezekaya zara sị, “Ihe niile nke dị nʼụlọ m ka ha hụrụ. Ọ dịghị ihe niile dị nʼụlọakụ m nke m na-egosighị ha.”
16 And Esaias said to Ezekias, Hear the word of the Lord:
Mgbe ahụ, Aịzaya sịrị Hezekaya, “Gee ntị nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị.
17 Behold, the days come, that all things that are in your house shall be taken, and all that your fathers have treasured up until this day, to Babylon; and there shall not fail a word, which the Lord has spoken.
Lee, oge na-abịa mgbe a ga-eburu ihe niile dị nʼụlọeze gị, na ihe niile nke nna nna gị ha debere nʼụlọakụ ruo taa, buru ha bulaa Babilọn. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe ga-afọdụ, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
18 And as for your sons which shall come forth of you, which you shall beget, [the enemy] shall take them, and they shall be eunuchs in the house of the king of Babylon.
A ga-ebupụ ụfọdụ nʼime ụmụ gị, ndị bụ ahụ na ọbara gị, ndị a ga-amụtara gị, buru ha pụọ nʼebe dị anya, ha ga-abụ ndị onozi nʼụlọeze nke eze Babilọn.”
19 And Ezekias said to Esaias, Good [is] the word of the Lord which he has spoken: [only] let there be peace in my days.
Hezekaya zaghachiri, “Okwu Onyenwe anyị nke i kwuru dị mma.” Nʼihi na o chere nʼobi ya sị, “Ọ bụ na udo na nchekwa agaghị adị nʼoge ndụ m?”
20 And the rest of the acts of Ezekias, and all his might, and all that he made, the fountain and the aqueduct, and [how] he brought water into the city, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Hezekaya, ọrụ niile ọ rụrụ, tinyere ọdọ mmiri o gwuru, na olulu ọwa mmiri na-aga o gwuru, nke o ji webata mmiri nʼime obodo, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe mere nʼoge ndị eze Juda?
21 And Ezekias slept with his fathers: and Manasses his son reigned in his stead.
Hezekaya sooro ndị nna nna ya dinaa nʼọnwụ. Manase nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
