Isaiah 36
1 In the fourteenth year of the reign of Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attacked and conquered all the fortified towns of Judah.
Hezekiah siangpahrang a bawinae kum 14 nah Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib ni Judah ram kacakpounge kho kaawm e pueng hah a tuk teh a lawp.
2 The king of Assyria sent his army general, along with a large army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. He stopped by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer's Field.
Hathnukkhu Assiria siangpahrang, Rabshakeh hah ransanaw moikapap hoi Lakhish kho hoi Hezekiah onae Jerusalem vah a patoun. Hote ransabawi a tho teh, kapâsukung e laikawk teng kaawm e lamthung lamtung e tuiim teng vah a kangdue.
3 Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went out to speak with him.
Hat toteh, Hilkiah capa Eliakim, cakathutkung Shebna hoi Asaph capa Joab cayin kuenkung tinaw teh ahni koe a cei awh.
4 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?
Rabshakeh ni ahnimouh koe a dei e teh, Hezekiah siangpahrang koe bout dei pouh awh. Ka lentoe e siangpahrang, Assiria siangpahrang ni nang teh bangpatet e kânguenae nama hettelah totouh na kâuep va.
5 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?
Taran tuk thainae lamthung hoi tithainae kai koe ao na ti teh, ahrawnghrang lawk hah na dei. Kai taran hanelah apimouh na kâuep va.
6 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.
Khenhaw! Nang teh lawtkâkhoe e lungpum sonron tie Izip ram nahoehmaw na kâuep hah vaw. Hot ni teh ka kâuepnaw e kut hah a ruk pouh han. Hethateh, ama ka kâuep e naw pueng koe Izip siangpahrang Faro ni a kamnue sak e doeh.
7 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’?
Nang ni, kaimae BAWIPA Cathut doeh ka kâuep awh na tetpawiteh, Hezekiah teh, hete thuengnae khoungroe hmalah duengdoeh a bawk han, telah Judah khocanaw hoi Jerusalem khocanaw hah dei pouh nateh, hote Cathut e karasang hmuen puenghoi thuengnae khoungroe pueng hah a takhoe toe nahoehmaw.
8 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!
Atu kaie bawipa Assiria siangpahrang hoi lawkkam sak leih. Nang ni marang ransa kakhoutlah na ta thai e nah boi pawiteh, marang 2,000 touh na poe han.
9 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?
Nang ni taran tuknae marangnaw hane hoi marangransanaw hanelah, Izip ram hah na kâuep nakunghai, kaie bawipa e a thaw katawknaw thung dawk kathoungpounge patenghai bangtelamaw a tuk thai han vaw.
10 More than that—would I have come to attack this place without the Lord's encouragement? It was the Lord himself who told me, ‘Go and attack this land and destroy it.’”
Hothloilah kai teh, BAWIPA e kâ laipalah hete ram raphoe hanelah ka tho hoeh. Hete ram heh BAWIPA ni raphoe loe telah kai koe a dei toe telah ati telah atipouh.
11 Eliakim, 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.”
Hat toteh, Eliakim, Shebna, hoi Joab tinaw ni kaimouh ni ka thai thai awh nahanlah Aramaih lawk lahoi na dei pouh haw. Rapan dawk kaawmnaw ni a thai thai awh nahan, Judah lawk lahoi dei hanh loe telah Rabshakeh koe ati pouh awh.
12 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!”
Hatei, Rabshakeh ni, ka bawipa ni nangmouh hoi nangmae bawipa koe doeh hete lawk dei hanelah na patoun. Amamae ei ka cat niteh, amamae payungtui ka net e rapan dawk kaawm e naw koe dei hanelah nahoeh atipouh.
13 Then the army general shouted out in Hebrew, “Listen to this from the great king, the king of Assyria!
Hathnukkhu, Rabshakeh ni a kangdue teh Judah lawk lahoi kacaipounglah hram laihoi a dei e teh, ka lentoe e Assyria siangpahrang ni a dei e lawk teh thai awh haw.
14 This is what the king says: Don't let Hezekiah trick you! He can't save you!
Siangpahrang ni hettelah a dei. Hezekiah ni nangmouh na dum hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnin ni nangmouh na rungngang thai mahoeh.
15 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.’
BAWIPA ni doeh na rungngang tih. Hete kho teh Assyria kut dawk phat mahoeh telah ati teh, nangmanaw hah BAWIPA na kâuep awh nahanlah kâ poe awh hanh.
16 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!
Hezekiah e lawk hah ngâi awh hanh. Assyria siangpahrang ni a dei e teh, kai hoi cungtalah roumnae awm sak awh. Kai koe tho awh.
17 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.
Ka tho vaiteh, nangmanaw hah, namamae ram hoi kâvan e, cai, tui, misurtui apapnae koe, vaiyei hoi misur takha apapnae koe na thak hoehroukrak, namamae misur paw lengkaleng cat awh nateh, namamae tuikhu tui hah lengkaleng net awh.
18 But don't let Hezekiah trick you when he says, ‘The Lord will deliver us.’ Have any of the gods of any nation ever saved their land from the power of the king of Assyria?
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA ni maimouh na rungngang han doeh telah a dei e lahoi na dum awh nahanh seh. Ram pueng teh Assyria siangpahrang kut dawk hoi amamae ram hah a rungngang awh maw.
19 Where were the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where were the gods of Sepharvaim? Were they able to save Samaria from me?
Hamath ram hoi Arpad kho cathutnaw teh nâne. Ahnimouh ni Samaria ram hah ka kut dawk hoi a rungngang awh maw.
20 Which one of all the gods of these countries has saved their land from me? How then could the Lord save Jerusalem from me?”
Hete ram pueng e cathutnaw hlakvah, bangpatet e cathut maw amae ram hah ka kut dawk hoi ka rungngang thai han. Jerusalem kho hah Jehovah ni ka kut dawk hoi bangtelamaw a rungngang thai han telah a ti.
21 But the people remained silent and didn't say anything, for Hezekiah had given the order, “Don't answer him.”
Hatei, ahni hah pato awh hanh awh telah siangpahrang ni ati dawkvah, apinihai pato laipalah lawkkamuem lah ao awh.
22 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.
Hat toteh, Hilkiah capa siangpahrang im ka ring e Eliakim, cakathutkung Shebna, Asaph capa cungpam kakhoekung Joab tinaw teh, Hezekiah koe a cei awh teh, amamae khohna a phi awh teh, Rabshakeh ni dei e lawk hah ahni koe a dei pouh awh.
