< 2 Chronicles 32 >

1 After these things, and this faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fortified cities, and thought to make a breach therein for himself.
Ary rehefa afaka izany raharaha marina izany, dia avy Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, niditra tany Joda ary nanao fahirano ny tanàna mimanda ka nikasa hanafaka azy.
2 And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
Ary nony hitan’ i Hezekia fa tonga Sankeriba ka nikasa hamely an’ i Jerosalema,
3 he took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which were without the city; and they helped him.
dia niara-nihevitra tamin’ ny mpanapaka sy ny lehilahy mahery izy mba hanampina ny rano tamin’ ny loharano eny ivelan’ ny tanàna; ary nanampy azy ireo.
4 So there was gathered much people together, and they stopped all the fountains, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying: 'Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?'
Dia nivory ny olona maro ka nanampina ny loharano rehetra sy ilay renirano mamaky eo afovoan’ ny tany, fa hoy izy: Nahoana no avela hahita rano be ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria, raha avy?
5 And he took courage, and built up all the wall that was broken down, and raised it up to the towers, and another wall without, and strengthened Millo in the city of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.
Dia nohereziny namboariny avokoa izay rava tamin’ ny manda sady nasiany tilikambo teny amboniny sy manda hafa koa teo ivelany, dia namboatra an’ i Milo tao an-tanànan’ i Davida sady nanao lefona aman’ ampinga betsaka izy.
6 And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the broad place at the gate of the city, and spoke encouragingly to them, saying:
Ary nanendry mpifehy miaramila hifehy ny olona izy ka nampiangona azy hankeo aminy teo an-kalalahana akaikin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanàna, dia nanao teny famporisihana taminy hoe:
7 'Be strong and of good courage, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him; for there is a Greater with us than with him:
Mahereza ka matanjaha; aza matahotra na mivadi-po noho ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria sy ny hamaroan’ ny olona rehetra izay entiny; fa ny momba antsika dia be noho ny momba azy.
8 with him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles.' And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
Sandry nofo no momba azy, fa Jehovah Andriamanitsika kosa no momba antsika hamonjy antsika ka hiady ny adintsika. Ary dia niankina tamin’ ny tenin’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ny olona.
9 After this did Sennacherib king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem — now he was before Lachish, and all his power with him — unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that were at Jerusalem, saying:
Rehefa afaka izany, dia nirahin’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, ny mpanompony hankany Jerosalema (fa izy sy ny miaramilany rehetra kosa nanao fahirano an’ i Lakisy tamin’ izay) ho any amin’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ho any amin’ ny Joda rehetra izay tany Jerosalema ka nanao hoe:
10 'Thus saith Sennacherib king of Assyria: Whereon do ye trust, that ye abide the siege in Jerusalem?
Izao nolazain’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria: Inona izato itokianareo, no dia miaritra fahoriana ato Jerosalema ianareo?
11 Doth not Hezekiah persuade you, to give you over to die by famine and by thirst, saying: The LORD our God will deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Tsy Hezekia ihany va no manambosy anareo hanole-tena ho faty mosary sy hetaheta ka anao hoe: Jehovah Andriamanitsika hamonjy antsika amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria?
12 Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away His high places and His altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying: Ye shall worship before one altar, and upon it shall ye offer?
Tsy io Hezekia io ihany koa va no nandrava ny fitoerana avony sy ny alitarany ary nandidy ny Joda sy Jerosalema ka nanao hoe: Eo anoloan’ ny alitara iray no iankohofanareo sy handoroanareo ditin-kazo manitra?
13 Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands in any wise able to deliver their land out of my hand?
Tsy fantatrareo va izay nataoko, dia izaho sy ny razako, tamin’ ny firenena rehetra tany amin’ ny tany hafa? Moa ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ireny va nisy nahavonjy ny taniny akory tamin’ iny tanako?
14 Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of my hand?
Iza amin’ ny andriamanitr’ ireo firenena efa naringan’ ny razako ireo no nahavonjy ny olony tamin’ ny tanako, ka dia hahavonjy anareo amin’ ny tanako va ny Andriamanitrareo?
15 Now therefore let not Hezekiah beguile you, nor persuade you after this manner, neither believe ye him; for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers; how much less shall your God deliver you out of my hand?'
Koa ankehitriny, aza avela hamitaka anareo Hezekia, na hitaona anareo tahaka izao; aza mino azy ianareo; fa tsy nisy andriamanitra tany amin’ ny firenena sy ny fanjakana rehetra izay nahavonjy ny olony tamin’ ny tanako sy ny tanan’ ny razako; koa aiza ny Andriamanitrareo no hahavonjy anareo amin’ ny tanako?
16 And his servants spoke yet more against the LORD God, and against His servant Hezekiah.
Ary ny mpanompon’ i Sankeriba mbola niteny ratsy an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra sy Hezekia mpanompony,
17 He wrote also a letter, to taunt the LORD, the God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying: 'As the gods of the nations of the lands, which have not delivered their people out of my hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver His people out of my hand.'
sady nanoratra taratasy hihaika an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, sy hiteny ratsy Azy ka nanao hoe: Tahaka ny tsy nahavonien’ ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ny olony tamin’ ny tanako no tsy hahavonjen’ ny Andriamanitr’ i Hezekia ny olony koa amin’ ny tanako.
18 And they cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to terrify them, and to affright them; that they might take the city.
Dia niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery izy ka nanao teny Jiosy teo anatrehan’ ny mponina tany Jerosalema izay teny ambonin’ ny manda hampitahorany sy hampangorohoroany azy mba hahafahany ny tanàna.
19 And they spoke of the God of Jerusalem, as of the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of men's hands.
Ary Andriamanitr’ i Jerosalema koa dia mba nolazainy toy ny filazàny ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ireny, izay asan’ tànan’ olona ihany.
20 And Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, prayed because of this, and cried to heaven.
Ary noho izany dia nivavaka Hezekia mpanjaka sy Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza, ka nitaraina tamin’ ny lanitra.
21 And the LORD sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains, in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
Ary Jehovah naniraka anjely izay nandringana ny lehilahy mahery rehetra sy ny mpanapaka ary ny komandy teo an-tobin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria, ka dia lasa nody amin-kenatra Sankeriba. Ary nony niditra tao an-tranon’ ny andriamaniny izy, dia namono azy tao tamin’ ny sabatra ny zanany naterany.
22 Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all, and guided them on every side.
Toy izany no namonjen’ i Jehovah an’ i Hezekia sy ny mponina tany Jerosalema tamin’ ny tànan’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, sy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalony rehetra; eny, niaro azy tamin’ ny manodidina rehetra Izy.
23 And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah; so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
Ary ny maro nitondra fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema sy zava-tsoa ho an’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda; dia nalaza teo imason’ ny firenena rehetra izy hatramin’ izany.
24 In those days Hezekiah was sick even unto death; and he prayed unto the LORD; and He spoke unto him, and gave him a sign.
Tamin’ izany andro izany dia narary efa saiky maty Hezekia, koa dia nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah izy, ary Jehovah niteny taminy ka nanome azy famantarana.
25 But Hezekiah rendered not according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up; therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
Fa Hezekia tsy mba namaly araka izay soa efa natao taminy; fa niavonavona ny fony, dia niharan’ ny fahatezerana izy mbamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema.
26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
Kanefa Hezekia nanetry tena noho ilay efa niavonavonan’ ny fony, dia izy sy ny mponina tany Jerosalema, ka dia tsy niharan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah ireo fahavelon’ i Hezekia.
27 And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honour; and he provided him treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of goodly vessels;
Ary Hezekia nanana harena sy voninahitra be indrindra; dia nanao trano firaketana izy hitehirizany ny volafotsy sy ny volamena sy ny vato soa sy ny zava-manitra sy ny ampinga mbamin’ izay fanaka tsara rehetra,
28 store-houses also for the increase of corn, and wine, and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and flocks in folds.
ary tanàna fitehirizana ny vokatra koa, dia ny vary sy ny ranom-boaloboka ary ny diloilo, sy trano miefitrefitra hitoeran’ ny biby fiompy samy hafa karazana ary vala hitoeran’ ny ondry aman’ osy.
29 Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much substance.
Ary nanao tanàna maro ho azy koa izy sady nanana ondry aman’ osy ary omby betsaka, fa nomen’ Andriamanitra fananana be indrindra izy.
30 This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down on the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
Ary notampenan’ io Hezekia io ny fivoahan’ ny rano ambony any Gihona ka nampandehaniny tany ambanin’ ny tany hidina mahitsy ho any andrefan’ ny Tanànan’ i Davida izany. Ary nambinina tamin’ ny asany rehetra Hezekia.
31 Howbeit in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that He might know all that was in his heart.
Nefa noho ny amin’ ny irak’ ireo mpanapaka tany Babylona, izay naniraka tany aminy mba hanontany ny amin’ ny zava-mahagaga natao teo amin’ ny tany, dia nilaozan’ Andriamanitra izy, mba hizahany toetra azy hahalalany izay rehetra ao am-pony.
32 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his good deeds, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Ary ny tantaran’ i Hezekia sisa mbamin’ ny soa nataony, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny fahitan’ Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza, sy ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny Isiraely izany.
33 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the ascent of the sepulchres of the sons of David; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
Ary Hezekia lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao amin’ ny fiakarana ho any amin’ ny fasan’ ny zanak’ i Davida izy; ary ny Joda rehetra sy ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema nanome voninahitra azy tamin’ ny nahafatesany. Ary Manase zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
