2 Kings 18
1 Hezekiah, son of Ahaz, became king of Judah in the third year of the reign of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel.
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 twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah.
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 He did what was right in the Lord's sight, following all that his forefather David had done.
Inaramidna ti umno iti imatang ni Yahweh, sinurotna ti pagwadan kadagiti amin nga inaramid ti kapuonanna a ni David.
4 He removed the high places, smashed the stone idols, and cut down the Asherah poles. He ground to pieces the bronze snake Moses had made, because up to then the Israelites had been sacrificing offerings to it. It was called Nehushtan.
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 Hezekiah put his trust in the Lord, the God of Israel. Among the kings of Judah there was no one like him, neither before him nor after 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 He stayed faithful to the Lord and did not give up following him. He kept the commandments that the Lord had given Moses.
Ta nagkapet isuna kenni Yahweh. Saan isuna a simmardeng a sumursurot kenkuana ket tinungpalna dagiti bilbilinna, nga imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Moises.
7 The Lord was with him; he was successful in everything he did. He defied the king of Assyria and refused to submit to him.
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 defeated the Philistines all the way to Gaza and the surrounding area, from watchtower to fortified town.
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 Hezekiah's reign, equivalent to the seventh year of the reign of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, attacked Samaria, besieging 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 The Assyrians conquered it after three years. This was during the sixth year of Hezekiah, equivalent to the ninth year of Hoshea, king of Israel.
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 The king of Assyria deported the Israelites to Assyria. He settled them in Halah, in Gozan on the Habor River, and in the towns 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 This happened because they refused to listen to the Lord their God and broke his agreement—all that Moses, the Lord's servant, had commanded. They refused to listen and did not obey.
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 Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attacked and conquered all the fortified towns of Judah in the fourteenth year of the reign of Hezekiah.
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 So Hezekiah, king of Judah, sent a message to the king of Assyria who was at Lachish, saying, “I've made a terrible mistake! Please retreat and leave me alone, and I'll pay you whatever you want!” The king of Assyria demanded Hezekiah, king of Judah, pay 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 Hezekiah paid him using all the silver from the Lord's Temple and the treasuries of the royal palace.
Isu nga inted amin ni Hezekias dagiti pirak a nabirukanna iti balay ni Yahweh ken kadagiti pagiduldulinan ti kinabaknang iti palasio ti ari.
16 He even stripped the gold he had used to overlay the doors and doorposts of the Lord's Temple and gave everything to the king of Assyria.
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 Even so, the king of Assyria sent his commander in chief, his head officer, and his army general, along with a large army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They approached Jerusalem and made camp beside the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to where laundry is washed.
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 They called for the king. Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went out to speak with them.
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 The Assyrian army general said to them, “Tell Hezekiah this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What are you trusting in that gives you such confidence?
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 You say you have a strategy and are ready for war, but these are empty words. Who are you relying on, now that you have rebelled against me?
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 Now look! You're trusting in Egypt, a walking stick that's like a broken reed that will cut the hand of anyone leaning on it. That's what Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is like to everyone who trusts 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 If you tell me, ‘We're trusting in the Lord our God,’ well didn't Hezekiah remove his high places and his altars, telling Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You have to worship at 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 Why don't you accept a challenge from my master, the king of Assyria? He says, I'll give you two thousand horses, if you can find enough 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 How could you defeat even a single officer in charge of the weakest of my master's men when you're trusting in Egypt for chariots and 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 More than that—would I have come to attack this pace without the Lord's encouragement? It was the Lord himself who told me, ‘Go and attack 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 Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, together with Shebnah and Joah, said to the army general, “Please speak to us, your servants, in Aramaic, for we understand it. Don't speak to us in Hebrew while the people on the wall are listening.”
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 But the army general replied, “Did my master only send me to say these things to your master and to you, and not to the people sitting on the wall? They too, just like you, are going to have to eat their own excrement and drink their own urine!”
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 the army general shouted out in Hebrew, “Listen to this from the great king, the king of Assyria!
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 This is what the king says: Don't let Hezekiah trick you! He can't save you from me!
Kinuna ti ari,
30 Don't believe Hezekiah when he tells you to trust in the Lord, saying, ‘I'm certain the Lord will save us. This city will never fall into the hands of the king of Assyria.’
'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 Don't listen to Hezekiah. This is what the king says: Make a peace treaty with me and surrender to me. That way everyone will eat from their own vine and their own fig tree, and drink water from their own well!
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 I will come and take you to a land that's like your own, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey. Then you will live and not die. But don't listen to Hezekiah, for he's tricking you when he says, ‘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 any nation ever saved their land from the power of the king of Assyria?
Adda kadi kadagiti dios dagiti tattao ti nangispal kadakuada manipud iti bileg ti ari ti Asiria?
34 Where were the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where were the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Were they able to save Samaria from me?
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 Which one of all the gods of these countries has saved their land from me? How then could the Lord save Jerusalem from me?”
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 remained silent and didn't say anything, for Hezekiah had given the order, “Don't answer him.”
Ngem nagtalinaed a naulimek dagiti tattao ket saanda a simmungbat, ta isu ti imbilin ti ari, “Saankayo a sumungbat kenkuana.”
37 Then Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebna the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they told him what the Assyrian army general had said.
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.
