< 2 Kings 19 >
1 And it came to pass when king Hezekiah heard [it], that he rent his garments, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Jehovah.
quae cum audisset rex Ezechias scidit vestimenta sua et opertus est sacco ingressusque est domum Domini
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz.
et misit Eliachim praepositum domus et Sobnam scribam et senes de sacerdotibus opertos saccis ad Esaiam prophetam filium Amos
3 And they said to him, Thus says Hezekiah: This day is a day of trouble and of rebuke and of reviling; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
qui dixerunt haec dicit Ezechias dies tribulationis et increpationis et blasphemiae dies iste venerunt filii usque ad partum et vires non habet parturiens
4 It may be Jehovah thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living God; and will rebuke the words which Jehovah thy God has heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is left.
si forte audiat Dominus Deus tuus universa verba Rabsacis quem misit rex Assyriorum dominus suus ut exprobraret Deum viventem et argueret verbis quae audivit Dominus Deus tuus et fac orationem pro reliquiis quae reppertae sunt
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
venerunt ergo servi regis Ezechiae ad Esaiam
6 And Isaiah said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master: Thus saith Jehovah: Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
dixitque eis Esaias haec dicetis domino vestro haec dicit Dominus noli timere a facie sermonum quos audisti quibus blasphemaverunt pueri regis Assyriorum me
7 Behold, I will put a spirit into him, and he shall hear tidings, and shall return to his own land; and I will make him to fall by the sword in his own land.
ecce ego inmittam ei spiritum et audiet nuntium et revertetur in terram suam et deiciam eum gladio in terra sua
8 And Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
reversus est igitur Rabsaces et invenit regem Assyriorum expugnantem Lobnam audierat enim quod recessisset de Lachis
9 And he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, Behold, he has come forth to make war with thee. And he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
cumque audisset de Tharaca rege Aethiopiae dicentes ecce egressus est ut pugnet adversum te et iret contra eum misit nuntios ad Ezechiam dicens
10 Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah saying: Let not thy God, upon whom thou reliest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
haec dicite Ezechiae regi Iudae non te seducat Deus tuus in quo habes fiduciam neque dicas non tradetur Hierusalem in manu regis Assyriorum
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all countries, destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered?
tu enim ipse audisti quae fecerint reges Assyriorum universis terris quomodo vastaverint eas num ergo solus poteris liberari
12 Have the gods of the nations which my fathers have destroyed delivered them: Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden that were in Thelassar?
numquid liberaverunt dii gentium singulos quos vastaverunt patres mei Gozan videlicet et Aran et Reseph et filios Eden qui erant in Thelassar
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?
ubi est rex Emath et rex Arfad et rex civitatis Sepharvaim Ana et Ava
14 And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up into the house of Jehovah, and spread it before Jehovah.
itaque cum accepisset Ezechias litteras de manu nuntiorum et legisset eas ascendit in domum Domini et expandit eas coram Domino
15 And Hezekiah prayed before Jehovah and said, Jehovah, God of Israel, who sittest [between] the cherubim, thou, the Same, thou alone art the God of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made the heavens and the earth.
et oravit in conspectu eius dicens Domine Deus Israhel qui sedes super cherubin tu es Deus solus regum omnium terrae tu fecisti caelum et terram
16 Incline thine ear, Jehovah, and hear; open, Jehovah, thine eyes, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent him to reproach the living God.
inclina aurem tuam et audi aperi Domine oculos tuos et vide et audi omnia verba Sennacherib qui misit ut exprobraret nobis Deum viventem
17 Of a truth, Jehovah, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
vere Domine dissipaverunt reges Assyriorum gentes et terras omnium
18 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; therefore have they destroyed them.
et miserunt deos eorum in ignem non enim erant dii sed opera manuum hominum e ligno et lapide et perdiderunt eos
19 And now, Jehovah our God, I beseech thee, save us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou, Jehovah, art God, thou only.
nunc igitur Domine Deus noster salvos nos fac de manu eius ut sciant omnia regna terrae quia tu es Dominus Deus solus
20 And Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: That which thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.
misit autem Esaias filius Amos ad Ezechiam dicens haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel quae deprecatus es me super Sennacherib rege Assyriorum audivi
21 This is the word that Jehovah has spoken against him: The virgin-daughter of Zion despiseth thee, laugheth thee to scorn; The daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head at thee.
iste est sermo quem locutus est Dominus de eo sprevit te et subsannavit virgo filia Sion post tergum tuum caput movit filia Hierusalem
22 Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted the voice? Against the Holy one of Israel hast thou lifted up thine eyes on high.
cui exprobrasti et quem blasphemasti contra quem exaltasti vocem et elevasti in excelsum oculos tuos contra Sanctum Israhel
23 By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots have I come up To the height of the mountain, to the recesses of Lebanon, And I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its cypresses; And I will enter into its furthest lodging-place, [into] the forest of its fruitful field.
per manum servorum tuorum exprobrasti Domino et dixisti in multitudine curruum meorum ascendi excelsa montium in summitate Libani et succidi sublimes cedros eius electas abietes eius et ingressus sum usque ad terminos eius saltum Carmeli eius
24 I have digged, and have drunk strange waters, And with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the streams of Matsor.
ego succidi et bibi aquas alienas et siccavi vestigiis pedum meorum omnes aquas clausas
25 Hast thou not heard long ago that I have done it? And that from ancient days I formed it? Now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest lay waste fortified cities [into] ruinous heaps.
numquid non audisti quid ab initio fecerim ex diebus antiquis plasmavi illud et nunc adduxi eruntque in ruinam collium pugnantium civitates munitae
26 And their inhabitants were powerless, They were dismayed and put to shame; They were [as] the growing grass, and [as] the green herb, [As] the grass on the housetops, and grain blighted before it be grown up.
et qui sedent in eis humiles manu contremuerunt et confusi sunt facti sunt quasi faenum agri et virens herba tectorum quae arefacta est antequam veniret ad maturitatem
27 But I know thine abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, And thy raging against me.
habitaculum tuum et egressum tuum et viam tuam ego praescivi et furorem tuum contra me
28 Because thy raging against me and thine arrogance is come up into mine ears, I will put my ring in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, And I will make thee go back by the way by which thou camest.
insanisti in me et superbia tua ascendit in aures meas ponam itaque circulum in naribus tuis et camum in labris tuis et reducam te in viam per quam venisti
29 And this [shall be] the sign unto thee: They shall eat this year such as groweth of itself, And in the second year that which springeth of the same; But in the third year sow ye and reap, And plant vineyards and eat the fruit thereof.
tibi autem Ezechia hoc erit signum comede hoc anno quod reppereris in secundo autem anno quae sponte nascuntur porro in anno tertio seminate et metite plantate vineas et comedite fructum earum
30 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah Shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward;
et quodcumque reliquum fuerit de domo Iuda mittet radicem deorsum et faciet fructum sursum
31 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, And out of mount Zion they that escape: The zeal of Jehovah [of hosts] shall do this.
de Hierusalem quippe egredientur reliquiae et quod salvetur de monte Sion zelus Domini exercituum faciet hoc
32 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city, Nor shoot an arrow there, Nor come before it with shield, Nor cast a bank against it.
quam ob rem haec dicit Dominus de rege Assyriorum non ingredietur urbem hanc nec mittet in eam sagittam nec occupabit eam clypeus nec circumdabit eam munitio
33 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, And shall not come into this city, saith Jehovah.
per viam qua venit revertetur et civitatem hanc non ingredietur dicit Dominus
34 And I will defend this city, to save it, For mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
protegamque urbem hanc et salvabo eam propter me et propter David servum meum
35 And it came to pass that night, that an angel of Jehovah went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand. And when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead bodies.
factum est igitur in nocte illa venit angelus Domini et percussit castra Assyriorum centum octoginta quinque milia cumque diluculo surrexisset vidit omnia corpora mortuorum et recedens abiit
36 And Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and abode at Nineveh.
et reversus est Sennacherib rex Assyriorum et mansit in Nineve
37 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer [his sons] smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
cumque adoraret in templo Neserach deum suum Adramelech et Sarasar filii eius percusserunt eum gladio fugeruntque in terram Armeniorum et regnavit Eseraddon filius eius pro eo
