2 Kings 20
1 About this time Hezekiah fell very sick and was about to die. The prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, went to him and said, “This is what the Lord says: Put your affairs in order, because you are going to die. You won't recover.”
Tanī laikā Hizkija palika slims uz miršanu, un pravietis Jesaja, Amoca dēls, nāca pie viņa un uz to sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: apkopi savu namu, jo tu mirsi un nepaliksi vesels.
2 When Hezekiah heard this, he went to pray privately to the Lord, saying
Tad Hizkija savu vaigu pagrieza pret sienu un pielūdza To Kungu un sacīja:
3 “Please remember Lord how I have followed you faithfully with all my heart. I have done what is good in your sight.” Then Hezekiah cried and cried.
Ak Kungs, piemini lūdzams, ka es Tavā priekšā esmu staigājis patiesībā no visas sirds un darījis, kas tev patīk. Un Hizkija gauži raudāja.
4 Before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the Lord spoke to him, saying,
Un kad Jesaja vēl nebija izgājis ne pusceļa caur pilsētu, tad Tā Kunga vārds uz viņu notika un sacīja:
5 “Go back in and tell Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, This is what the Lord, the God of your forefather David, says: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears. Look! I am going to heal you. In three days time you will go to the Lord's Temple.
Ej atpakaļ un saki uz Hizkiju, Manas tautas valdnieku: tā saka Tas Kungs, tava tēva Dāvida Dievs: Es tavu lūgšanu esmu klausījis, Es tavas asaras esmu redzējis, redzi, Es tevi darīšu veselu, trešā dienā tu iesi Tā Kunga namā.
6 I will add fifteen years to your life. I will save you and this city from the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.”
Un pie tavām dienām Es vēl pielikšu piecpadsmit gadus, un tevi un šo pilsētu Es izpestīšu no Asīrijas ķēniņa rokas un pasargāšu šo pilsētu Sevis labad un Sava kalpa Dāvida labad.
7 Then Isaiah said, “Prepare a dressing from figs.” Hezekiah's servants did so and put it on the skin sores, and Hezekiah got better.
Un Jesaja sacīja: ņemiet vīģu rausi. Un tie to ņēma un uzlika uz to trumu, tad viņš palika vesels.
8 Hezekiah had previously asked Isaiah, “What is the sign to confirm that the Lord is going heal me and that I will go to the Lord's Temple in three days time?”
Un Hizkija sacīja uz Jesaju: kāda ir tā zīme, ka Tas Kungs mani darīs veselu, un ka es trešā dienā iešu Tā Kunga namā?
9 Isaiah replied, “This is the sign from the Lord to you that the Lord will do what he promised: Do you want the shadow to go forward ten steps, or back ten steps?”
Un Jesaja sacīja: šī būs tā zīme no Tā Kunga, ka Tas Kungs šo lietu darīs, ko viņš runājis. Vai ēnai būs iet desmit kāpienus uz priekšu, vai desmit kāpienus atpakaļ?
10 “It's easy enough for the shadow to go forward ten steps, but not to go back ten steps,” Hezekiah answered.
Tad Hizkija sacīja: tas ir viegli, ēnai iet desmit kāpienus uz priekšu, - to ne, bet lai ēna iet desmit kāpienus atpakaļ.
11 So Isaiah the prophet asked the Lord, and he moved the shadow back the ten steps it had gone down on the stairway of Ahaz.
Un pravietis Jesaja piesauca To Kungu, un Tas tai ēnai lika iet desmit kāpienus atpakaļ pa tiem pašiem kāpieniem, ko tā bija gājusi uz priekšu pie Ahaza saules stundeņa.
12 At the same time Merodach-baladan, son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, because he had heard that Hezekiah was sick.
Tanī laikā Berodaks Baladans, Baladana dēls, Bābeles ķēniņš, sūtīja grāmatas un dāvanas pie Hizkijas, jo tas bija dzirdējis, ka Hizkija bijis slims.
13 Hezekiah welcomed the visitors and showed them everything in his treasury—all the silver, the gold, the spices, and the expensive oils. He also showed them his armory and all that he had in his storehouses. In fact there wasn't anything in his palace or in the whole of his kingdom that Hezekiah didn't show them.
Un Hizkija par tiem priecājās un tiem radīja visu savu mantas namu, sudrabu un zeltu un dārgās zāles un to smalko eļļu un visu savu bruņu namu un visu, kas viņa mantās bija; nekas nebija viņa namā un visā viņa valstī ko Hizkija tiem nebūtu rādījis.
14 Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked him, “Where did those men come from, and what did they tell you?” “They came from a long way away, from Babylon,” Hezekiah replied.
Tad pravietis Jesaja nāca pie ķēniņa Hizkijas un uz to sacīja: ko šie vīri sacījuši un no kurienes tie pie tevis nākuši? Un Hizkija sacīja: tie no tālas zemes atnākuši, no Bābeles.
15 “What did they see in your palace?” Isaiah asked. “They saw everything in my palace,” replied Hezekiah. “There wasn't anything in all my storehouses I didn't show them.”
Un tas sacīja: ko tie laba redzējuši tavā namā? Un Hizkija sacīja: tie visu redzējuši, kas manā namā; nekā nav no manām mantām, ko es tiem nebūtu rādījis.
16 Isaiah told Hezekiah, “Listen to what the Lord says:
Tad Jesaja sacīja uz Hizkiju: klausies Tā Kunga vārdu:
17 You can be certain that the time is coming when everything in your palace, and everything that your forefathers have saved up until now, will be taken away to Babylon. There will be nothing left, says the Lord.
Redzi, dienas nāks, ka viss, kas ir tavā namā un ko tavi tēvi līdz šai dienai sakrājuši, taps novests uz Bābeli, nekas netaps atlicināts, saka Tas Kungs.
18 Some of your sons, your own offspring, will be taken to serve as eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
Un no taviem bērniem, kas no tevis nāks, ko tu dzemdināsi, taps ņemti, ka tie būs par kambarjunkuriem Bābeles ķēniņa pilī.
19 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The message from the Lord that you have told me is fine.” For he said to himself, “Why not, if there'll be peace and safety in my lifetime.”
Un Hizkija sacīja uz Jesaju: Tā Kunga vārds ir labs, ko tu runājis. Un viņš sacīja: lai notiek, kad tikai miers un drošība pastāv manā laikā.
20 The rest of what happened in Hezekiah's reign, all he did, and how he made the pool and the tunnel to bring water into the city, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Un kas vēl par Hizkiju stāstāms, un viss viņa spēks, un ko viņš darījis, un par to dīķi un ūdens grāvi, un ka viņš ūdeni vadījis pilsētā, tas viss ir rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
21 Hezekiah died, and his son Manasseh succeeded him as king.
Un Hizkija aizmiga saviem tēviem pakaļ, un Manasus, viņa dēls, palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
