< 2 Kings 18 >

1 In the third year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, reigned Ezechias the son of Achaz king of Juda.
Ita, iti maikatlo a tawen a panagturay ni Oseas nga ari ti Israel nga anak ni Ela, nangrugi nga agturay ni Hezekias nga anak ni Ahaz a kas ari iti Juda.
2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abi the daughter of Zacharias.
Agtawen idi isuna iti duapulo ket lima idi nangrugi nga agturay; nagturay isuna iti duapulo ket siam a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Ti nagan ti inana ket Abiha nga anak a babai ni Zacarias.
3 And he did that which was good before the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.
Inaramidna ti umno iti imatang ni Yahweh, sinurotna ti pagwadan kadagiti amin nga inaramid ti kapuonanna a ni David.
4 He destroyed the high places, and broke the statues in pieces, and cut down the groves, and broke the brazen serpent, which Moses had made: for till that time the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called its name Nohestan.
Inikkatna dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan, dinadaelna dagiti nasagradoan a bato nga adigi, ken pinutedna dagiti imahen ni Asera. Binurakna ti bronse a sinan-uleg nga inaramid ni Moises, gapu ta kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, nagpupuor iti insenso dagiti tattao ti Israel iti daytoy; naawagan daytoy iti “Nehustan.”
5 He trusted in the Lord the God of Israel: so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Juda, nor any of them that were before him:
Nagtalek ni Hezekias kenni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, ket awanen ti simmaruno a kas kenkuana kadagiti amin nga ar-ari ti Juda, wenno kadagiti ar-ari nga immun-una kenkuana.
6 And he stuck to the Lord, and departed not from his steps, but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses.
Ta nagkapet isuna kenni Yahweh. Saan isuna a simmardeng a sumursurot kenkuana ket tinungpalna dagiti bilbilinna, nga imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises.
7 Wherefore the Lord also was with him, and in all things, to which he went forth, he behaved himself wisely. And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.
Isu nga adda ni Yahweh kenni Hezekias, ket sadinoman ti papananna, agballigi isuna. Binusorna ti ari ti Asiria ken saan a nagserbi kenkuana.
8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
Ginubatna dagiti Filisteo idiay Gaza ken dagiti nagbebeddengan iti aglawlaw, manipud iti tore dagiti agbanbantay agingga iti dakkel a nasarikedkedan a siudad.
9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, Salmanasar king of the Assyrians came up to Samaria, and besieged it,
Iti maikapat a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Hezekaias, a maikapito met a tawen a panagturay nga ari iti Israel ni Oseas nga anak ni Ela, rinaut ni Salmaneser nga ari ti Asiria ti Samaria ket linnakubda daytoy.
10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, Samaria was taken:
Kalpasan iti tallo a tawen, nasakupda daytoy, iti maikanem a tawen a panagturay ni Hezekias, a maika-siam met a tawen a panagturay ni Oseas nga ari ti Israel; iti kastoy a wagas, nasakup ti Samaria.
11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hale, and in Habor by the rivers of Gozan in the cities of the Medes:
Isu nga impan ti ari ti Asiria ti Israel idiay Asiria ket impanna ida idiay Hala, iti Karayan Habor ti Gosan, ken kadagiti siudad ti Media.
12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, they would not hear nor do.
Inaramidna daytoy gapu ta saanda a tinungpal ti timek ni Yahweh a Diosda, ngem sinalungasingda ti katulaganna, dagiti amin nga imbilin ni Moises nga adipen ni Yahweh. Saanda a dinengngeg daytoy wenno inaramid daytoy.
13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the fenced cities of Juda: and took them.
Iti maikasangapulo ket uppat a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Hezekias, ginubat ni Senakerib nga ari ti Asiria dagiti amin a nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Juda ket tiniliwda ida.
14 Then Ezechias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.
Isu a nangipatulod ti sao ni Hezekias nga ari ti Juda iti ari ti Asiria, nga adda sadiay Lakis, a kinunana, “Pinabainanka. Panawannak. Aniaman nga ipabaklaymo kaniak, baklayek.” Kinalikaguman ti ari ti Asiria nga agbayad ni Hezekaias nga ari ti Juda iti tallo gasut a talento ti pirak ken tallopulo a talento ti balituk.
15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures.
Isu nga inted amin ni Hezekias dagiti pirak a nabirukanna iti balay ni Yahweh ken kadagiti pagiduldulinan ti kinabaknang iti palasio ti ari.
16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians.
Linikkab ni Hzsekias dagiti balitok kadagiti ruangan ti templo ni Yahweh ken manipud kadagiti inkalupkopna kadagiti adigi; intedna dagiti balitok iti ari ti Asiria.
17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces from Lachis to king Ezechias with a strong army to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller’s field.
Ngem pinagtignay ti ari ti Asiria ti adu nga armadana, imbaonna da Tartan, Rabsaris ken ti panguloen a komandante manipud idiay Lakis a mapan kenni Ari Hezekias idiay Jerusalem. Nagdaliasatda kadagiti dalan ket nakadanunda iti ruar ti Jerusalem. Immasidegda iti pagayusan ti akinngato a pagurnongan ti danum, iti kalsada nga abay ti paglalabaan, ket nagtakderda iti abay daytoy.
18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.
Idi inayabanda ni Ari Hezekias, rimmuar da Eliakim nga anak ni Hilkias a mangimatmaton iti palasio, ni Sebna nga eskriba, ken Joa nga anak ni Asaf nga agay-aywan kadagiti napapateg a papeles, tapno sabtenda ida.
19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest?
Kinuna ti panguloen a komandante kadakuada nga ibagada amin kenni Hezekias ti kinuna ti naindaklan nga ari, ti ari ti Asiria, “Ania aya ti pagpanpannakkelyo?
20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel?
Agsasaokayo laeng kadagiti awan kaes-eskanna a sasao, ibagbagayo nga adda dagiti sabali a nasion a tumulong kadakayo ken pigsayo iti gubat. Ita, siasino ti pagtaltalkanyo? Siasino ti nangpatured kadakayo a bumusor kaniak?
21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao king of Egypt, to all that trust in him.
Kitaenyo, agtalekkayo iti tukkol a sarukod a runo ti Egipto, a no agsammaked ti maysa a tao a pagsarukod daytoy, maitudok iti imana. Dayta ti kaiyarigan ti Paraon nga ari ti Egipto iti siasinoman nga agtalek kenkuana.
22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
Ngem no ibagayo kaniak, 'Agtaltalekkami kenni Yahweh a Diosmi,' saan kadi a kukuana dagiti inikkat ni Hezekias a disso a pagdaydayawan ken dagiti altar, ket naibaga iti Juda ken iti Jerusalem, 'Masapul nga agdayawkayo iti sangoanan daytoy nga altar iti Jerusalem'?
23 Now therefore come over to my master the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them.
Ita ngarud, kayatko ti mangidiaya ti nasayaat kadakayo manipud iti apok nga ari ti Asiria. Ikkankayo iti dua ribu a kabalio, no makabirukkayo iti mangsakay kadagitoy.
24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master’s servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Kasanoyo a sarangten ti uray maysa laeng a kapitan dagiti kakakapuyan nga adipen ti apok? Inkabilyo ti panagtalekyo iti Egipto gapu kadagiti karwahe ken kadagiti kumakabalio!
25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land and destroy it.
Dimmanonak kadi ditoy a lugar a manggubat ken mangdadael iti daytoy a lugar nga awan ni Yahweh? Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, 'Rautem daytoy a daga ket dadaelem.'''
26 Then Eliacim the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe said to Rabsaces: We pray thee speak to us thy servants in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews’ language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall.
Ket kinuna da Eliakim nga anak ni Hilkias, Sebna ken Joa iti panguloen a komandante, “Pangaasim ta agsaoka kadagiti adipenmo iti pagsasao nga Arameo, ta maawatanmi daytoy. Saanka nga agsao kadakami iti pagsasao ti Juda kadagiti lapayag dagiti tattao nga adda kadagiti rabaw ti pader.”
27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you?
Ngem kinuna ti panguloen a komandante kadakuada, “Imbaonnak kadi ti apok iti apoyo ken kadakayo tapno ibagak dagitoy a sasao? Saan kadi nga imbaonnak kadagiti tattao nga agtugtugaw kadagiti rabaw ti pader, a kadduayo a mangan kadagiti bukodyo a rugit ken uminum kadagiti bukodyo nga isbu?”
28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and said: Hear the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.
Kalpasanna ket timmakder ken nagpukkaw iti napigsa ti panguloen a komandante iti pagsaso a Judio a kinunana, “Dumngegkayo iti sao ti naindaklan nga ari, ti ari ti Asiria.
29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand.
Kinuna ti ari,
30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
'Saanyo nga ipalubos nga allilawennakayo ni Hezekaias, ta saannakayo a kabaelan nga ispalen manipud iti bilegko. Saanyo nga ipalubos a pagtalkennakayo ni Hezekias kenni Yahweh, a kunana, “Awan dua-dua nga ispalennatayo ni Yahweh; saan a maipaima daytoy a siudad iti ari ti Asiria.'''
31 Do not hearken to Ezechias. For thus saith the king of the Assyrians: Do with me that which is for your advantage, and come out to me: and every man of you shall eat of his own vineyard, and of his own fig tree: and you shall drink water of your own cisterns,
Saankayo a dumngeg kenni Hezekias, ta daytoy ti kinuna ti ari ti Asiria: 'Makikapiakayo kaniak ket sumukokayo kaniak. Ket mangan iti tunggal maysa kadakayo manipud iti ubasna ken manipud iti kayona nga igos, ken uminom iti danum manipud iti bubonna.
32 Till I come, and take you away to a land, like to your own land, a fruitful land, and plentiful in wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives, and oil and honey, and you shall live, and not die. Hearken not to Ezechias, who deceiveth you, saying: The Lord will deliver us.
Aramidenyo daytoy agingga nga umayak a mangipan kadakayo iti daga a kasla iti bukodyo a daga, daga nga addaan kadagiti trigo ken baro nga arak, daga nga addaan iti tinapay ken kaubasan, daga nga addaan kadagiti kayo ti olibo ken diro, tapno agbiagkayo a saan ketdi a matay.' Saankayo a dumngeg kenni Hezekias no allukoyennakayo a kunana, “Ispalennatayo ni Yahweh.'
33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Adda kadi kadagiti dios dagiti tattao ti nangispal kadakuada manipud iti bileg ti ari ti Asiria?
34 Where is the god of Emath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Ana, and of Ava? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Sadino ti ayan dagiti dios da Hamat ken Arpad? Sadino ti ayan dagiti dios da Sefravaim, Hena ken Ivva? Naispalda kadi ti Samaria manipud kadagiti imak?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord may deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Kadagiti amin a dios dagiti daga, adda kadi ti aniaman a dios a nangispal iti dagana manipud iti bilegko? Kasano nga isalakan ni Yahweh ti Jerusalem manipud iti kinabilegko?”
36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for they had received commandment from the king that they should not answer him.
Ngem nagtalinaed a naulimek dagiti tattao ket saanda a simmungbat, ta isu ti imbilin ti ari, “Saankayo a sumungbat kenkuana.”
37 And Eliacim the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Ezechias, with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rabsaces.
Kalpasanna, napan da Eliakim nga anak ni Hilkias, a mangimatmaton ti palasio; Sebna nga eskriba; ken ni Joa nga anak ni Asaf, ti paraidulin kadagiti napapateg a papeles kenni Hezekias, a naray-ab dagiti pagan-anayda ket impadamagda kenkuana dagiti sinao ti panguloen a komandante.
