Isaiah 37
1 And it happened that, when king Hezekiah had heard this, he rent his garments, and he wrapped himself in sackcloth, and he entered the house of the Lord.
Ke na pacl se Tokosra Hezekiah el lohng ma elos fahk nu sel, el asor ac seya nuknuk lal, ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa, ac som nu in Tempul lun LEUM GOD.
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna, the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah, the son of Amoz, the prophet.
El supwalla Eliakim, mwet liyaung inkul sin tokosra; Shebna, mwet sim lun inkul fulat; ac mwet matu inmasrlon mwet tol nu yorol mwet palu Isaiah wen natul Amoz. Elos wi pac nukum nuknuk yohk eoa.
3 And they said to him: “Thus says Hezekiah: This day is a day of tribulation, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy. For the sons have arrived at the time for birth, but there is not enough strength to bring them forth.
Pa inge kas ma el sap elos in tuh fahk nu sel Isaiah: “Misenge sie len in keok. Kalyeiyuk ac akmwekinyeyuk kut. Kut oana sie mutan su akola in isus tuh arulana munas in oswela.
4 Perhaps, somehow, the Lord your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of the Assyrians, his lord, has sent to blaspheme the living God, and will rebuke the words that the Lord your God has heard. Therefore, lift up your prayers on behalf of the remnant which has been left behind.”
Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el supwama sie mwet kol fulat lal in tuh fahk kas in akkolukye God moul. Lela LEUM GOD lom in lohng kas in akkoluk inge, ac kaelos su fahk kas inge. Ke ma inge, pre nu sin God ke mwet lasr su painmoulla.”
5 And so the servants of king Hezekiah went to Isaiah.
Ke Isaiah el eis kas sel Tokosra Hezekiah inge,
6 And Isaiah said to them: “You shall say this to your lord: Thus says the Lord: Do not be afraid to face the words that you have heard, by which the servants of the king of the Assyrians blasphemed me.
el folokunulosla ke top se inge: “Fahkang nu sel tokosra lah LEUM GOD El fahk mu elan tia lela mwet Assyria in aksangengyal ke kas in akkoluk ma elos fahk.
7 Behold, I will send a spirit to him, and he will hear a message, and he will return to his own land. And I will cause him to fall by the sword, in his own land.”
LEUM GOD El ac oru Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria elan lohngak sie sramsram ma ac oru elan folokla nu in facl sel sifacna, na LEUM GOD El ac oru elan anwuki we.”
8 Then Rabshakeh returned, and he found the king of the Assyrians fighting against Libnah. For he had heard that he had set out from Lachish.
Mwet kol fulat lun Assyria el lohngak lah Tokosra Fulat el som liki acn Lachish ac mweuni siti Libnah, su oan apkuran nu Lachish. Ouinge el som nu we in lolngok yorol.
9 And he heard from Tirhakah, the king of Ethiopia: “He has gone forth so that he may fight against you.” And when he had heard this, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying:
Kas se sun mwet Assyria lah un mwet mweun lun Egypt, ye kolyuk lun Tokosra Tirhakah lun Ethiopia, ac tuku in mweunelos. Ke Tokosra Fulat sac lohngak ma inge el supwala leta se nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah
10 “You shall say this to Hezekiah, the king of Judah, saying: Do not let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you by saying: ‘Jerusalem will not be given into the hands of the king of the Assyrians.’
lun Judah in tuh fahk nu sel, “God se ma kom lulalfongi kac el fahk nu sum mu kom ac tia sruhu sik, tusruktu nimet kom lela kas ingan in kiapwekomla.
11 Behold, you have heard about all that the kings of the Assyrians have done to all the lands that they have conquered, and so, how can you be delivered?
Kom lohng tari ma kutena tokosra fulat lun Assyria elos oru nu sin mutunfacl se elos sulela in kunausla. Ya kom nunku mu kom ku in kaingla?
12 Have the gods of the nations rescued those whom my fathers have conquered: Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden who were at Telassar?
Mwet matu luk somla elos kunausla siti lun Gozan, Haran, ac Rezeph, ac onela pac mwet Betheden su muta Telassar, a wangin god lalos tuh ku in molelosla.
13 Where is the king of Hamath and the king of Arpad, or the king of the city of Sepharvaim, or of Hena and Ivvah?”
Pia tokosra lun siti Hamath, Arpad, Sepharvaim, Hena, ac Ivvah?”
14 And Hezekiah took the letter from the hand of the messengers, and he read it, and he went up to the house of the Lord, and Hezekiah spread it out in the sight of the Lord.
Tokosra Hezekiah el eisla leta sac sin mwet se ma use ah, ac riti. Na el som nu in Tempul, ac filiya leta sac ye mutun LEUM GOD,
15 And Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying:
ac pre,
16 “O Lord of hosts, the God of Israel who sits upon the Cherubim: you alone are God of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
“O LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, su muta lucng liki cherub luo, kom mukena pa God su leumi tokosrai nukewa fin faclu. Kom orala kusrao ac faclu.
17 O Lord, incline your ear and listen. O Lord, open your eyes and see. And hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to blaspheme the living God.
Inge, LEUM GOD, lohng kut ac liye ma sikyak nu sesr. Porongo ma nukewa ma Sennacherib el fahk in akkolukye kom, God moul.
18 For truly, O Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have laid waste to countries and territories.
O LEUM GOD, kut nukewa etu lah tokosra fulat lun acn Assyria elos tuh kunausla mutunfacl puspis, sukela acn selos,
19 And they have cast their gods into the fire. For these were not gods, but the works of men’s hands, of wood and of stone. And they broke them into pieces.
ac esukak god lalos — su tia god pwaye, a ma sruloala ma poun mwet taflela ke eot ac sak.
20 And now, O Lord our God, save us from his hand. And let all the kingdoms of the earth acknowledge that you alone are Lord.”
Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD lasr, molikutla liki poun mwet Assyria, tuh mutunfacl nukewa fin faclu fah etu lah kom mukena pa God.”
21 And Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Because of what you have prayed to me about Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians,
Na Isaiah el supwala kas nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah in fahk lah lohngyuk pre lal kacl Sennacherib, tokosra lun Assyria,
22 this is the word that the Lord has spoken over him: The virgin daughter of Zion has despised you and mocked you. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.
ac LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge, “Siti Jerusalem isrun kom, Sennacherib, ac orek tafunkas keim.
23 Whom have you insulted? And whom have you blasphemed? And against whom have you lifted up your voice and raised up your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel!
Su kom nunku mu kom kaskou nu se, ku akkolukye uh? Kom arulana akpusiselyeyu, God Mutal lun Israel!
24 By the hand of your servants, you have reproached the Lord. And you have said: ‘With a multitude of my four-horse chariots, I have ascended the heights of the mountains adjoining Lebanon. And I will cut down its lofty cedars and its choice pine trees. And I will reach the top of its summit, to the forest of its Carmel.
Kom supwama mwet tafweyom in tungak nu sik mu chariot puspis nutum oru kom fanukya fineol ma fulat liki nukewa in acn Lebanon. Kom konkin pac mu kom pakiya sak cedar ma fulat emeet ac sak cypress ma wo emeet we, ac kom som loallana nu insak uh.
25 I dug deep, and I drank water, and I dried up all the river banks with the sole of my foot.’
Kom konkin pac mu kom pukanak lufin kof in acn sin mwetsac ac nim kof kac, oayapa falken mwet mweun lom lolongya Infacl Nile pulamlamla.
26 Have you not heard what I have done to it in past times? In ancient times, I formed it. And now I have brought it forth. And it has been made so that the hills and the fortified cities would fight together, unto its destruction.
“Ya kom soenna lohng lah nga nuna akoo ma inge ke pacl loeloes somla? Ac inge nga orala tari. Nga pa sot nu sum ku in ekulla siti potyak nu ke yol in kutkut.
27 Their inhabitants had unsteady hands. They trembled and were confused. They became like the plants of the field, and the grass of the pastures, and like the weeds on the rooftops, which wither before they are mature.
Mwet ma muta in acn ingo wangin ma elos ku in oru; elos sangeng ac fohsak. Elos oana mah inimae, ku mah ma kapak fin lohm uh ke pacl eng fol kutulap me tuhyak ac okla.
28 I know your habitation, and your arrival, and your departure, and your madness against me.
“Tusruktu nga etu ma nukewa keim, ma kom oru ac yen kom ac som nu we. Nga etu lupan mongsa lom lainyu.
29 When you became angry against me, your arrogance rose up to my ears. Therefore, I will place a ring in your nose, and a bit between your lips. And I will turn you back on the road by which you arrived.
Nga lohng tari pungen kasrkusrak lom ac inse fulat lom, ac inge nga ac sang sie ring srumasrla infwem ac soko osra nu inwalum, ac amakin kom folokla ke innek soko na kom tuku kac.”
30 But this shall be a sign for you: Eat, in this year, whatever springs up on its own. And in the second year, eat fruits. But in the third year, sow and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
Na Isaiah el fahk nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah, “Pa inge sie akul ke ma ac fah sikyak. Yac se inge ac yac fahsru uh kom ac fah mongo wheat inima mukena, tusruktu ke yac se toko an kom ac fah ku in yukwiya wheat sunom ac kosrani pac kac, ac yukwiya oa in grape ac mongo grape kac.
31 And what will be saved from the house of Judah, and what is left behind, will form deep roots, and will bear high fruits.
Elos su painmoulla in acn Judah elos ac kapak oana sak ma okah kac kapla loal nu infohk uh ac rukruk fahko.
32 For from Jerusalem, a remnant shall go forth, and salvation from mount Zion. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.
Ac fah oasr mwet in Jerusalem ac fin Eol Zion su ac fah painmoulla, mweyen LEUM GOD Kulana El wotela tari sel mu ac ouinge.
33 For this reason, thus says the Lord about the king of the Assyrians: He will not enter this city, nor shoot an arrow into it, nor overtake it with a shield, nor dig a rampart all around it.
“Ac pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria: ‘El ac fah tia utyak nu in siti se inge ku pisrikya sokofanna osra in pisr natul nu kac. Wangin mwet mweun su us mwe loeyuk ac fah tuku apkuran nu ke siti uh, oayapa ac fah wangin ma ac etoatyak elos in fanyak kac nu in siti uh.
34 He will return on the road by which he arrived. And into this city, he will not enter, says the Lord.
El ac fah folokla ke inkanek soko na el tuku kac, ac tia utyak nu in siti se inge. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
35 And I will protect this city, so that I may save it for my own sake, and for the sake of David, my servant.”
Nga fah loango siti se inge ac liyaung ke sripen Inek sifacna, ac ke sripen wuleang su nga tuh orala nu sel David, mwet kulansap luk.’”
36 Then the Angel of the Lord went forth and struck down, in the camp of the Assyrians, one hundred eighty-five thousand. And they arose in the morning, and behold, all these were dead bodies.
Sie lipufan lun LEUM GOD som nu nien aktuktuk lun mwet mweun Assyria ac onela mwet mweun tausin siofok oalngoul limekosr. Toangna in len tok ah elos nukewa alapelik misa!
37 And Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians, departed and went away. And he returned and lived at Nineveh.
Na Sennacherib, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el tila mweun a el folokla nu Nineveh, yen sel.
38 And it happened that, as he was adoring his god in the temple of Nisroch, his sons, Adramelech and Sharezer, struck him with the sword. And they fled into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon, his son, reigned in his place.
Sie len ah ke el alu in tempul lun Nisroch, god lal, luo sin wen natul ah, Adrammelech ac Sharezer, unilya ke cutlass natultal, ac kaingla nu in facl Ararat. Esarhaddon, sie pac sin wen natul, el aolulla in tokosra fulat.
