2 Kings 19
1 When Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and went into the Lord's Temple.
Nígbà tí ọba Hesekiah gbọ́ èyí, ó fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya ó sì wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ ó sì lọ sí àgọ́ Olúwa
2 He sent Eliakim the palace manager, Shebna, the scribe, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to see the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz.
Ó sì rán Eliakimu olùtọ́jú ààfin, Ṣebna akọ̀wé àti olórí àlùfáà gbogbo wọn sì wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀, sí ọ̀dọ̀ wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi.
3 They told him, “This is what Hezekiah says: Today is a day of trouble, punishment. It's like when babies arrive at the entrance to the birth canal but there's no strength to deliver them.
Wọ́n sì sọ fún ún pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Hesekiah sọ: ọjọ́ òní yí jẹ́ ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú àti ìbáwí àti ẹ̀gàn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà tí ọmọdé wá sí ojú ìbímọ tí kò sì sí agbára láti fi bí wọn.
4 Maybe the Lord your God, hearing the message the army commander delivered on behalf of his master, the king of Assyria—a message sent to insult the living God—will punish him for his words. Please say a prayer for the remnant of us who still survive.”
Ó lè jẹ́ wí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yóò gbọ́ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ olùdarí pápá, ẹni tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀, ọba Asiria, ti rán láti fi Ọlọ́run alààyè ṣẹ̀sín, yóò sì bá a wí fún ọ̀rọ̀ ti Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ti gbọ́. Nítorí náà gbàdúrà fún ìyókù àwọn tí ó wà láààyè.”
5 After Hezekiah's officials delivered his message to Isaiah,
Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ ọba Hesekiah lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Isaiah,
6 Isaiah replied to them, “Tell your master, This is what the Lord says: Don't be frightened by the words that you have heard, the words used by the servants of the king of Assyria to blaspheme me.
Isaiah wí fún wọn pé, “Sọ fún ọ̀gá rẹ, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ pé: Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù ohun tí ẹ̀yin ti gbọ́—àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ìhàlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú èyí ti ọba Asiria ti sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí mi.
7 Look, I'm going to scare him—he'll hear a rumor, and he'll have to return to his own country. When he's there I'll have him killed by the sword.”
Gbọ́! Èmi yóò rán ẹ̀mí kan sínú rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó bá sì gbọ́ ariwo, yóò sì padà sí ìlú rẹ̀, níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò sì gbé gé e lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà.’”
8 The Assyrian army commander left and went back to join the king of Assyria, having heard the king had left Lachish and was attacking Libnah.
Nígbà tí olùdarí pápá gbọ́ wí pé ọba Asiria ti kúrò ní Lakiṣi ó sì padà ó sì rí ọba níbi ti ó gbé ń bá Libina jà.
9 Sennacherib had received a message about Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, that said, “Watch out! He has set out to attack you.” So Sennacherib sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
Nísinsin yìí, Sennakeribu sì gbọ́ ìròyìn wí pé Tirakah, ọba Etiopia ti Ejibiti wá ó sì ń yan jáde lọ láti lọ bá a jagun. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì tún rán oníṣẹ́ sí Hesekiah pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ yìí pé,
10 “Tell Hezekiah, king of Judah: ‘Don't let your God, the one you're trusting in, fool you by saying that Jerusalem won't fall into the hands of the king of Assyria.
“Sọ fún Hesekiah ọba Juda pé, má ṣe jẹ́ kí òrìṣà tí ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé kí ó tàn ó jẹ nígbà tí ó wí pé, ‘Jerusalẹmu a kò ní fi lé ọwọ́ ọba Asiria.’
11 Look! You've heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the countries they've invaded— they destroyed them completely! Do you really think you'll be saved?
Lóòótọ́ ìwọ ti gbọ́ gbogbo ohun tí ọba Asiria tí ó ṣe sí gbogbo àwọn ìlú, ó pa wọ́n run pátápátá. Ìwọ yóò sì gbàlà?
12 Did the gods of the nations my forefathers destroyed save them—the gods of Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who lived in Telassar?
Ṣé àwọn òrìṣà orílẹ̀-èdè tí a ti parun láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn baba ńlá mi gbà wọ́n là: òrìṣà Gosani, Harani Reṣefu àti gbogbo ènìyàn Edeni tí wọ́n wà ní Teli-Assari?
13 Where today is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?”
Níbo ni ọba Hamati wa, ọba Arpadi, ọba ìlú Sefarfaimi, ti Hena, tàbí ti Iffa gbé wà?”
14 Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it. Then he went up to the Lord's Temple and opened it out before the Lord.
Hesekiah gba lẹ́tà láti ọ̀dọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ ó sì kà á. Nígbà náà ó sì lọ sí òkè ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa ó sì tẹ́ ẹ síwájú Olúwa.
15 Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying, “Lord, God of Israel, you who live above the cherubim, you alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth, you are Creator of heaven and earth.
Hesekiah gbàdúrà sí Olúwa: “Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, tí ń gbé ní àárín àwọn kérúbù, ìwọ nìkan ni Ọlọ́run lórí gbogbo ìjọba tí ó wà láyé, ìwọ ti dá ọ̀run àti ayé.
16 Please listen with your ears, Lord, and hear; open your eyes, Lord, and see. Listen to the message that Sennacherib has sent to insult the living God.
Dẹtí sílẹ̀, Olúwa kí o sì gbọ́; la ojú rẹ, Olúwa, kí o sì rí i, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Sennakeribu tí ó rán láti fi bú Ọlọ́run alààyè.
17 Yes, it's true, Lord, that the Assyrian kings have destroyed these nations and their lands.
“Òtítọ́ ni, Olúwa, wí pé ọba Asiria ti pa orílẹ̀-èdè wọ̀nyí run àti ilẹ̀ wọn.
18 They have thrown their gods into the fire because they are not really gods—they are just the work of human hands, made of wood and stone so they could destroy them.
Wọ́n ti ju òrìṣà wọn sínú iná wọn sì ti bà wọ́n jẹ́, nítorí pé wọn kì í ṣe ọlọ́run. Ṣùgbọ́n, wọ́n jẹ́ igi àti òkúta tí a ṣe lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ ènìyàn.
19 Now, Lord our God, please save us from him, in order that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that only you, Lord, are God.”
Nísinsin yìí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, gbà wá kúrò lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ìjọba lórí ilẹ̀ ayé le mọ̀ pé ìwọ nìkan ṣoṣo ni, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.”
20 Then Isaiah, son of Amoz, sent a message to Hezekiah, saying, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I have heard your prayer about Sennacherib, king of Assyria.
Nígbà náà Isaiah ọmọ Amosi rán oníṣẹ́ sí Hesekiah pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ: Mo ti gbọ́ àdúrà rẹ nípa ti Sennakeribu ọba Asiria.
21 This is the word the Lord condemning him: The virgin daughter of Zion scorns you and mocks you; the daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head as you run away.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa ti sọ nípa rẹ̀, “‘Wúńdíá ọmọbìnrin Sioni kẹ́gàn rẹ ó sì fi ọ́ ṣe ẹlẹ́yà. Ọmọbìnrin Jerusalẹmu mi orí sí ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti sálọ.
22 Who have you been insulting and ridiculing? Who did you raise your voice against? Who did you look at with so proud eyes? It was against the Holy One of Israel!
Ta ni ìwọ ti bú tí o sì kẹ́gàn rẹ̀? Lórí ta ni ìwọ ti gbé ohùn rẹ sókè tí ó sì gbé ojú sókè sí ọ ní ìgbéraga? Lórí ẹni mímọ́ ti Israẹli!
23 By your servants you have mocked the Lord. You said: ‘With my many chariots I have ascended to the high mountains, to the farthest peaks of Lebanon. I have chopped down its tallest cedars, the best of its cypress trees. I have reached its most distant outposts, its deepest forests.
Nípa àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ìwọ ti sọ̀rọ̀ búburú sí Olúwa. Tì wọ sì wí pé, “Pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́ mi ni èmi sì fi dé orí àwọn òkè ńlá, sí ibi gíga jùlọ Lebanoni. Èmi a sì ké igi kedari gíga rẹ̀ lulẹ̀, àti ààyò igi firi rẹ̀. Èmi a sì lọ sí orí òkè ìbùwọ̀ rẹ̀ sínú ibi tí ó dára jù nínú igbó rẹ̀.
24 I have dug wells and drunk water in foreign lands. With the soles of my feet I dried up all the rivers in Egypt.’”
Mo ti gbẹ́ kànga ní ilẹ̀ àjèjì, mo sì mu omi níbẹ̀. Pẹ̀lú àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ mi, èmi ti gbẹ́ gbogbo omi odò tí ó wà ní Ejibiti.”
25 The Lord replies, “Haven't you heard? I decided it long ago; I planned it in the olden days. Now I am making sure it happens—that you are to knock down fortified towns into piles of rubble.
“‘Ṣé ìwọ kò tí ì gbọ́? Ní ọjọ́ pípẹ́ sẹ́yìn mo yàn án. Ní ọjọ́ ogbó ni mo ṣètò rẹ̀; nísinsin yìí mo ti mú wá sí ìkọjá pé ìwọ ti yí ìlú olódi padà dí òkìtì àlàpà òkúta.
26 Their people, powerless, are terrified and humiliated. They're like plants in a field, like soft green shoots, like grass that sprouts on rooftop—scorched before it can even grow.
Àwọn ènìyàn wọn ń gbẹ nípa, wọ́n ti dà á láàmú wọ́n sì ti ṣọ́ di ìtìjú. Wọ́n dàbí koríko igbó lórí pápá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkà tí ó rẹ̀ dànù kí ó tó dàgbàsókè, gẹ́gẹ́ bí fífún ọkà tí ó hù jáde.
27 But I know you very well—where you live, when you come in, when you leave, and your furious anger against me.
“‘Ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ ibi tí ìwọ dúró àti ìgbà tí ìwọ bá dé tàbí lọ àti bí ìwọ ṣe ìkáàánú rẹ: sí mi.
28 Because of your furious anger against me, and because I know how you disrespect me, I'm going to put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth, and I will force you to return the same way you came.”
Ṣùgbọ́n ìkáàánú rẹ sí mi àti ìrora rẹ dé etí mi, Èmi yóò gbé ìwọ̀ mi sí imú rẹ àti ìjánu mi sí ẹnu rẹ, èmi yóò mú ọ padà nípa wíwá rẹ.’
29 “Hezekiah, this will be a sign to prove this is true: This year you'll eat what grows by itself. The second year you'll eat what grows from that. But in the third year you'll sow and reap, you'll plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
“Èyí yóò jẹ́ àmì fún ọ, ìwọ Hesekiah: “Ọdún yìí ìwọ yóò jẹ ohun tí ó bá hù fún rara rẹ̀, àti ní ọdún kejì ohun tí ó bá hù jáde láti inú ìyẹn. Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún kẹta, gbìn kí o sì kórè, gbin ọgbà àjàrà kí o sì jẹ èso rẹ̀.
30 The remnant that's left of Judah will revive again, sending roots below and bearing fruit above.
Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i ìyókù ti ilé Juda yóò sì tún hu gbòǹgbò lábẹ́, yóò sì so èso lókè.
31 For a remnant will come out of Jerusalem, and survivors will come from Mount Zion. The intense determination of the Lord will make sure this happens.
Láti inú Jerusalẹmu ní àwọn ìyókù yóò ti wá àti láti orí òkè Sioni ni ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn tí ó sá àsálà. Ìtara Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun yóò ṣe èyí.
32 This is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria: He shall not enter this city or shoot an arrow at it. He shall not advance towards it with a shield, or build a siege ramp against it.
“Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ nípa ti ọba Asiria: “Kò ní wọ ìlú yìí tàbí ta ọfà síbí. Kò ní wá níwájú rẹ pẹ̀lú àpáta tàbí kó ìdọ̀tí àgbò sí ọ̀kánkán rẹ.
33 He shall return the same way he came, and he shall not enter this city, says the Lord.
Nípa ọ̀nà tí ó gbà wá ni yóò padà; kì yóò wọ ìlú ńlá yìí, ni Olúwa wí.
34 I will defend this city and save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David.”
Èmi yóò dá ààbò bo ìlú ńlá yìí, èmi yóò sì pa á mọ́ fún èmi tìkára mi àti fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi.”
35 That night the angel of the Lord went to the Assyrian camp and killed 185,000. When the survivors woke up in the morning, they were surrounded by dead bodies.
Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, angẹli Olúwa jáde lọ ó sì pa ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́sàn-án lé ẹgbẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n ènìyàn ní ibùdó àwọn ará Asiria. Nígbà tí wọ́n sì dìde dúró ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì níbẹ̀ ni gbogbo òkú wà!
36 Sennacherib, king of Assyria, gave up and left. He returned home to Nineveh and stayed there.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Sennakeribu ọba Asiria wọ àgọ́ ó sì padà, ó sì padà sí Ninefe ó sì dúró níbẹ̀.
37 While he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer killed him with the sword and then ran away to the land of Ararat. His son Esar-haddon succeeded him as king.
