Isaiah 37
1 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard [it], that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.
Kane Ruoth Hezekia owinjo wachno, noyiecho lepe morwako pien gugru mi odhi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
2 And he sent Eliakim, who [was] over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
Ne ooro Eliakim ma jatend od ruoth, gi Shebna jagoro kod jodolo madongo ir janabi Isaya wuod Amoz ka giduto girwako piende gugru.
3 And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day [is] a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and [there is] not strength to bring forth.
Negiwachone niya, “Ma e gima Hezekia wacho: Odiechiengni en odiechieng kuyo, siem kod wichkuot machalo gi nyithindo ma ndalogi mar nywol osechopo to onge teko minywologigo.
4 It may be the LORD thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up [thy] prayer for the remnant that is left.
Nyalo bedo ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi biro winjo weche Rabshake jatend lweny, ma jatende ma ruodh Asuria oseoro mondo oyany Nyasaye mangima, kendo obiro kwere kuom weche mane Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osewinjo kowacho. Kuom mano, in Isaya, lamne ji mane otony ma pod ngima.”
5 So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
Kane jodong Ruoth Hezekia nobiro ir Isaya,
6 And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
Isaya nowachonegi niya, “Nyisuru ruodhu ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama: Kik ibed maluor kuom weche misewinjo, wechego ma ruodh Asuria oseyanyago.
7 Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
Winji! Abiro goyo chunye gi kihondko ma kowinjo wach moro to noring odog e pinygi, to kuno ema nachiwe mondo onege gi ligangla.’”
8 So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
Kane Rabshake jatend lweny owinjo ni ruodh Asuria osewuok Lakish, ne oringo oa kanyo moyudo ka ruoth kedo gi jo-Libna.
9 And he heard say concerning Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He is come forth to make war with thee. And when he heard [it], he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
Senakerib noyudo wach ni Tirhaka ja-Kush ruodh Misri obiro monje. Kane owinjo wachno, nooro joote ir Hezekia kowacho kama:
10 Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
“Wachne Hezekia ruodh Juda kama: Kik iyie nyasaye migeno kuomeno wuondi kowacho ni, ‘Jerusalem ok nochiw e lwet ruodh Asuria.’
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands by destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered?
Adier isewinjo gik ma ruodhi mag Asuria osetimo ni pinjeruodhi duto kotiekogi chuth. In to iparo ni ibiro tony?
12 Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my fathers have destroyed, [as] Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which [were] in Telassar?
Bende nyiseche mag ogendini mane kwerena oketho pinygi kaka nyiseche mag Gozan, Haran, Rezef kod jo-Eden man Tel Assar nokonyogi?
13 Where [is] the king of Hamath, and the king of Arphad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah?
Tinde ere ruodh Hamath, gi ruodh Arpad gi ruodh dala maduongʼ mar Sefarvaim, kata ruodh Hena kod Iva?”
14 And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.
Hezekia noyudo baruwano mane joote okelone mosome. Bangʼe nodhi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, moyaro baruwano e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
15 And Hezekiah prayed unto the LORD, saying,
Kendo Hezekia nolamo Jehova Nyasaye kowacho kama:
16 O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest [between] the cherubims, thou [art] the God, [even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, modak e kind kerubi, in kendi e Nyasaye mar pinjeruodhi duto manie piny, kendo in ema ne ichweyo polo gi piny.
17 Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the living God.
Chik iti, yaye Jehova Nyasaye mondo iwinji, yaw wangʼi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye mondo ine; kendo winjie weche duto ma Senakerib oseoro joge kayanyigo in Nyasaye mangima.
18 Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations, and their countries,
“En adier, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ni ruodhi mag Asuria osetieko ogendini mangʼenygi ma giweyo pinjegi gunda.
19 And have cast their gods into the fire: for they [were] no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
Gisewito nyisechegi e mach mi gitiekogi, nikech ne ok gin nyiseche to ne gin mana yien kod kidi molos gi lwet dhano.
20 Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou [art] the LORD, [even] thou only.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachwa, koro reswa e lwet Senakerib mondo pinjeruodhi duto manie piny ongʼe ni in kendi e Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasaye.”
21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria:
Eka Isaya wuod Amoz ne ooro wach ne Hezekia kama: “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Nikech uselama kuom wach mar Senakerib ruodh Asuria,
22 This [is] the word which the LORD hath spoken concerning him; The virgin, the daughter of Zion, hath despised thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
ma e wach ma Jehova Nyasaye osewacho kuom Senakerib: “Nyar Sayun Mangili ochayi kendo jari. Nyar Jerusalem kino wiye koneni kiringo.
23 Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted [thy] voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? [even] against the Holy One of Israel.
En ngʼa misejaro kendo yanyo? Koso en ngʼa ma isegone koko, kijowo wangʼi gi sunga? Donge en mana Jal Maler mar Israel.
24 By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, [and] the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of his border, [and] the forest of his Carmel.
Kokalo kuom jooteni usegango weche mag ayany kuom Ruoth Nyasaye. Bende usewacho niya, ‘Gi gechena mangʼeny mag lweny, aseidho gode maboyo mag Lebanon mi achopo ewi got mabor moloyo. Asetongʼo yiendene mag sida maboyo kendo mabeyo. Asechopo nyaka e chuny bungu ma iye mogik kuma yien odiche.
25 I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.
Asekunyo sokni e pinje mamoko mi amodho pige man kuno. Asemiyo aore duto mag Misri bende oduono ka anyonogi gi tienda.’
26 Hast thou not heard long ago, [how] I have done it; [and] of ancient times, that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste defenced cities [into] ruinous heaps.
“Donge usewinjo ni an ema ne achano chon mondo gigo otimre? Ne achanogi chon to koro amiyo gitimore, kendo an ema ne achano mondo imuk mier madongo mochiel motegno mondo olokre pidhe mag kite.
27 Therefore their inhabitants [were] of small power, they were dismayed and confounded: they were [as] the grass of the field, and [as] the green herb, [as] the grass on the housetops, and [as corn] blasted before it be grown up.
Joge teko orumonegi, mi gibuok kendo gidongʼ gi wichkuot. Gichalo gi cham manie puodho, kata ka maua mangʼich mathiewo, kata ka lum madongo ewi tado, to ner kapok odongo.
28 But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
“To angʼeyo kama idakie, bende angʼeyo sa ma idonjo kata sa ma iwuok, kata kaka iwuoyo marach kuoma.
29 Because thy rage against me, and thy tumult, is come up into mine ears, therefore will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
Nikech iwuoyo kuoma marach kendo wechegi maricho osechopo e ita, abiro keto chuma e umi kod mbedona e dhogi, kendo abiro miyo idog gi yo mane ibirogo.
30 And this [shall be] a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat [this] year such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which springeth of the same: and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.
“Ma ema nobedni ranyisi, yaye Hezekia: “E higa mokwongoni unucham gik matwi kendgi kendo e higa mar ariyo unucham orowe moloth bangʼ keyo e higa mokwongono. To e higa mar adek, unuchwo kodhi kendo unuka cham, bende unupidh mzabibu mi ucham olembegi.
31 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
Jo-Juda modongʼ biro chalo gi yath matero tiendene piny kendo nyago olemo e bedene.
32 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall do this.
Nimar joma nok modongʼ nowuog Jerusalem, kendo oganda mar joma otony nowuogi koa e Got Sayun. Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, notim ma kuom tekone owuon.
33 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it.
“Kuom mano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho ewi ruodh Asuria: “Ok nodonji e dala maduongʼni kata diro asere. Ok nomonj dalano kotingʼo kuot kata lwore gi jolweny mondo omonje.
34 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.
Enodogi mana gi yo mane obirogo; kendo ok enodonj e dala maduongʼni,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
35 For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.
“Abiro kedone dala maduongʼni kendo rese, nikech nyinga kod nying Daudi jatichna!”
36 Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they [were] all dead corpses.
Eka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye ne owuok mi odhi onego ji alufu mia achiel gi piero aboro gabich e kambi mar jo-Asuria. Kane ji ochiewo gokinyi negiyudo mana ringre joma otho!
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
Omiyo Senakerib ruodh Asuria noweyo lweny moloro kambi kendo nodok Nineve kuma nodakie.
38 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esar-haddon his son reigned in his stead.
Chiengʼ moro achiel kane olemo e hekalu mar Nisrok nyasache, yawuote miluongo ni Adramelek gi Shareza nonege gi ligangla, bangʼe negiringo gidhi e piny Ararat. Kendo Esarhadon wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
