< 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.”
Ie amy andro rezay, natindry fa heta’e t’i Kezkià, le nimb’ ama’e mb’eo t’Iesaià, ana’ i Amotse, le nanoe’e ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Hajario ty anjomba’o fa hihomake, tsy ho veloñe.
2 When Hezekiah heard this, he went to pray privately to the Lord, saying
Nampitolihe’e mb’an-drindriñe ty añ’ambone’e, vaho nihalaly amy Iehovà ami’ty hoe.
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.
Midrakadrakak’ ama’o ry Iehovà, tiahio hey t’ie nañavelo añ’ atrefa’o an-kavañonañe naho an-troke vantañe vaho nanao ty hasoa am-pivazohoa’o. Le nangololoike ty rovetse t’i Kezkià.
4 Before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the Lord spoke to him, saying,
Aa ie mbe tsy anteñateña’ i kiririsay t’Iesaià, le niheo ama’e ty tsara’ Iehovà, ami’ty hoe:
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.
Mibaliha indraike le saontsio t’i Kezkià mpifehe ondatikoo, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Davide rae’o, Tsinanoko i halali’oy, fa nitreako o ranom-pihaino’oo, inao te ho jangañeko, Mionjona mb’ añanjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo ami’ty andro fahatelo.
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.”
Le ho tovoñako taoñe folo-lime amby o andro’oo naho havotsoko am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey, ihe naho ty rova toy, vaho harovako ho Ahy naho ho a i Davide, mpitorokoy, ty rova toy.
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.
Le hoe t’Iesaià, Angalao garaton-tsakoa. Aa le nangalake le nabatra’ iereo amy honay le nisotrake re.
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?”
Le hoe t’i Kezkià am’ Iesaià, Ino ty ho viloñe te hampijangañe ahy t’Iehovà, naho himoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao iraho te herone?
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?”
Le hoe t’Iesaià, Zao ty viloñe ho azo’o am’ Iehovà, te hanoe’ Iehovà i tsinara’ey: ke hionjo miaolo fange’e folo i talinjoy, he hibalike fange folo, akore?
10 “It's easy enough for the shadow to go forward ten steps, but not to go back ten steps,” Hezekiah answered.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i Kezkià, Raha maivañe ty hizotsoa’ i talinjoy fange’e folo: Aiy! ampibaliho fange folo i talinjoy.
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.
Aa le kinanji’ Iesaià t’Iehovà, le nahere’e ami’ ty fange folo nizotsoa’e amy tarehem-pamatarañ’ andro i Ahkazeo i talinjoy.
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.
Ie henane zay, nañitrike taratasy naho ravoravo amy Kezkià t’i Berodake-baladàne, ana’ i Baladane, mpanjaka’ i Bavele; fa jinanji’e te natindry t’i Kezkià.
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.
Nihaoñe’ i Kezkià iereo, le fonga nitoroa’e o am-pañajam-bara’eo, o volafotio, naho o volamenao, naho o raha mafirio, naho o solike sarotseo naho i anjombam-pikalaña’ey, vaho ze nitendrek’ am-panontonam-bara’e ao; ndra loli’e amy anjomba’ey tsy napo’e, ndra amy fifehea’e iabiy, ze tsy natoro’ i Kezkià iareo.
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.
Pok’ amy mpanjakay amy zao t’Iesaià mpitoky, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ino ty enta’ indaty rey, naho boak’ aia iereo te nivotrak’ ama’o? Le hoe t’i Kezkià, toe boake tsietoitane añe iereo, hirike Bavele ao.
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.”
Le hoe re: Ino ty nioni’ iereo añ’anjomba’o ao? Le hoe ty natoi’ i Kezkià, Hene niisa’ iereo ze an-trañoko ao, tsy eo ty napoko tsy natoroko.
16 Isaiah told Hezekiah, “Listen to what the Lord says:
Le hoe t’Iesaià amy Kezkià, Janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà.
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.
Inao! ho avy ty andro te fonga hendeseñe mb’e Bavele mb’eo o añ’ anjomba’oo, naho ze vinandron-droae’o pak’ androany; tsy eo ty hapoke, hoe t’Iehovà.
18 Some of your sons, your own offspring, will be taken to serve as eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
Le haneseañe añe o tariratse hiboak’ ama’oo, o hasama’oo, ho mpiatrak’ añ’ anjombam-panjaka’ i Bavele ao.
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.”
Le hoe t’i Kezkià am’ Iesaià, Soa i tsara’ Iehovà tinaro’oy. Ie natao’e ty hoe: Aa tsy ho soa izay! te fierañerañañe naho hatò ty ho amo androkoo?
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.
Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Kezkià ila’eo, i haozara’ey, vaho ie namboatse ty antara naho zoho nampom-ba’e rano mb’ an-drova ao; tsy misokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
21 Hezekiah died, and his son Manasseh succeeded him as king.
Nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Kezkià; nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Menasè, ana’e.
