2 Kings 18
1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea' the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Hezekiah, the son of Achaz the king of Judah, became king.
In yac aktolu ke pacl Hoshea wen natul Elah el tokosra lun Israel, Hezekiah wen natul Ahaz, el tokosrala lun Judah
2 Twenty and five years old was he when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah.
ke el yac longoul limekosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac longoul eu. Nina kial pa Abijah, acn natul Zechariah.
3 And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that David his father had done.
Hezekiah el oru ma su akinsewowoye LEUM GOD, oana ouiya lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal.
4 He it was that removed the high-places, and broke the statues, and cut down the groves, and stamped in pieces the copper serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days were the children of Israel burning incense to it; and he called it Nechushtan.
El kunausla acn in alu lun mwet pegan, kunausya sru eot, ac pakiya ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah. El oayapa kotkoteya serpent bronze soko su pangpang Nehushtan ma Moses el tuh orala. Mwet Israel elos srakna akosak mwe keng in akfulatye serpent soko inge nwe in pacl sac.
5 In the Lord the God of Israel did he trust; and after him there was not his like among all the kings of Judah, nor among those that were before him.
Hezekiah el lulalfongi LEUM GOD lun Israel. Wangin tokosra lun mwet Judah meet lukel ku tok lukel oana el.
6 And he adhered to the Lord, and turned not away from following him; but he kept his commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
El inse pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD, ac wangin pacl el tia aksol. El arulana karinganang ma sap nukewa su LEUM GOD El sang nu sel Moses.
7 And the Lord was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El welul, ac wo ouiyal in ma nukewa el oru. El tuyak lain Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, ac tiana eisalang nu sel.
8 He it was that smote the Philistines, as far as Gazzah, and its territory, from the tower of the watchmen up to the fortified city.
El kutangla mwet Philistia ac utyak eisla ma lalos in acn srisrik nwe ke siti lulap, weang acn Gaza ac acn ma raunela.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea' the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Shalmanesser the king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
In yac akakosr ke pacl Hezekiah el tokosra — su yac akitkosr ma Hoshea el leumi acn Israel — Tokosra Fulat Shalmaneser lun Assyria el utyak mweuni acn Israel ac kuhlusya Samaria.
10 And they captured it at the end of three years, —in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea' the king of Israel, was Samaria captured.
Ke yac aktolu ma kuhlusyuki acn we, Samaria ikori. Ma inge sikyak ke yac akonkosr ma Hezekiah el tokosra, ac yac akeu ma Hoshea el tokosra.
11 And the king of Assyria led away Israel as exiles unto Assyria, and transported them to Chalach and to Chabor, by the river of Gozan, and to the cities of Media;
Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el usla mwet Israel in mwet sruoh in acn Assyria, ac oakiya kutu selos in siti Halah, ac kutu apkuran nu ke Infacl Habor in acn Gozan, ac kutu in siti lun Media.
12 Because they had not obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, but had transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; and had not obeyed, nor done accordingly.
Acn Samaria ikori, mweyen mwet Israel elos tia akos LEUM GOD lalos, a elos kunausla wulela ma El orala yorolos, ac seakos ma sap nukewa ma Moses mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD el tuh sang nu selos. Elos tiana lungse porongo, ac tiana akos.
13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib the king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seized on them.
In yac aksingoul akosr ke Tokosra Hezekiah el leum, Tokosra Fulat Sennacherib lun Assyria el mweuni siti ma potiyukyak lun Judah ac eisla acn inge.
14 And Hezekiah the king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: what thou wilt impose on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
Hezekiah el sapla nu sel Sennacherib su muta Lachish, ac fahk, “Tafongla ma nga oru. Nunak munas, tui ac tia mweuniyu, ac nga ac fah akfalye lupa na kom fahk nga in moli.” Ac Tokosra Fulat el topuk mu Hezekiah elan supwala longoul tausin paun in silver ac luo tausin paun in gold.
15 And Hezekiah gave up all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house.
Na Hezekiah el supwala silver nukewa ma oan in Tempul ac ma oan in nien filma saok inkul sin tokosra.
16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the door-sills which Hezekiah the king of Judah had overlaid, and gave the same to the king of Assyria.
El oayapa takusla gold nukewa ma sang yunela srungul ke Tempul, ac gold ma el sifacna sang nawela sukan srungul, ac supwala ma inge nufon nu sel Sennacherib.
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rub-sariss and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a strong army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem; and when they were come up, they came and halted by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the washer's field.
Na Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el supwala un mwet mweun na yohk se lal liki acn Lachish nu Jerusalem in tuh mweunel Hezekiah, su kolyuk sin mwet tolu ma fulat emeet sin mwet leum lun mwet mweun lal. Ke elos sun acn Jerusalem elos tui ke innek soko ma mwet owo nuknuk orekma we sisken na laf soko ma use kof ke lulu se ma oan lucng ah.
18 And they called for the king, when there came out to them Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder.
Na elos sapla solal Tokosra Hezekiah ac tolu sin mwet leum lal, ac som in osun nu selos. Elos inge pa Eliakim, wen natul Hilkiah su mwet liyaung inkul sin tokosra; Shebna, mwet sim ke inkul lun tokosra; ac Joah wen natul Asaph, su liyaung ma simusla.
19 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherewith thou hast trusted?
Sie sin mwet fulat lun acn Assyria inge fahkang nu selos lah Tokosra Fulat el ke etu lah mea Tokosra Hezekiah el kukin uh.
20 Thou saidst, but it was only a word uttered with the lips, [I have] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom didst thou trust, that thou rebelledst against me?
El fahk ouinge, “Ku kom nunku mu kas uh ku in sang lain ku lulap ac pisrla ke mweun? Su kom lulalfongi mu ac kasrekom lain acn Assyria?
21 Now, behold, thou trustedst thee upon yon cracked reed-staff, upon Egypt, which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
Kom lulalfongi mu Egypt ac kasrekom, tuh fin ouinge, ac oana ke kom sikalkin loa soko — ac kaptelik twe kanteya poum. Pa ingan luman tokosra Egypt nu sin mwet su tupan kasru sel uh.”
22 But if ye should say unto me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high-places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves in Jerusalem?
Ac mwet leum sac lun Assyria tafwela ac fahk, “Ku kom ac fahk nu sik lah kom ac lulalfongi na LEUM GOD lom an? Nien alu ac loang lun LEUM GOD pa Hezekiah el kunausla ke el tuh fahk nu sin mwet Judah ac Jerusalem elos in alu ke loang se in Jerusalem ah mukena.
23 And now, I pray thee, enter into a contest with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Nga ac oru sie pwapa nu sum ke inen Tokosra Fulat. Nga ac sot nu sum tausin luo ke horse kom fin ku in konauk pisen mwet ma ac fal in kasrusr fac!
24 How then wilt thou turn back the face of a single chieftain among the least of my master's servants, while thou hast put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen!
Finne mwet ma srik emeet wal la sin mwet leum lun Assyria, kom tia fal in lain, sruk kom lulalfongi mu mwet Egypt ac supwama chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse nu sum!
25 Now am I come up without the Lord ['s will] against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
Ya kom nunku mu nga mweuni facl sum an ac kunausla sayen kasru sin LEUM GOD? LEUM GOD sifacna El fahk nu sik mu ngan mweuni ac kunausla acn uh.”
26 Then said Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, and Shebnah, and Yoach, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jewish language before the ears of the people that are on the wall.
Na Eliakim, Shebna, ac Joah fahk nu sin mwet leum sac, “Kaskas nu sesr ke kas Aramaic. Kut kalem kac. Nimet kas Hebrew, mweyen mwet nukewa fin pot uh elos lohng pac ma kom fahk an.”
27 But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master then sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own excrement, and drink their own urine with you?
Ac el topuk, “Ku komtal nunku mu komtal na ac tokosra mukena pa Tokosra Fulat el supweyume ngan fahk ma inge nu se uh? Mo, nga tuku in fahk pac nu sin mwet ma muta fin pot an, su ac fah kang fohkoltal ac nim kifwaltal, oana komtal.”
28 Then stood Rabshakeh up and called out with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:
Na mwet leum se inge tuyak ac sala ke kas Hebrew ac fahk, “Lohng ma Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el fahk nu sumtal inge.
29 Thus hath said the king. Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand;
El mu komtal in taran Hezekiah elan tia kiapwekomtalla. Hezekiah el tia ku in molikomtalla.
30 Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria:
Ac nimet lela elan kifus komtal in filiya lulalfongi lomtal in LEUM GOD, mu El ac molikomtalla ac tulokinya mwet mweun lasr uh in tia sruokya siti sumtal an.
31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye every man of his own vine, and every man of his fig-tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his cistern;
Nimet lohng ma Hezekiah el fahk. Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el sapkin nu sumtal in illa liki siti an ac srasrapo nu sel. Na el ac fah lela tuh kais sie sumtal in mongo ke fokin ima grape lal ac fokinsak fig sunal, ac nim kof ke luf in kof lal sifacna,
32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil-olive trees, and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah; for he will mislead you, saying, The Lord will deliver us.
nwe ke Tokosra Fulat el sifilpa oakikomtal uh in sie facl su apkuran in oana facl sumtal, yen ma oasr ima in grape we in orek wain, ac oasr pac wheat in orek bread — sie facl oasr olive, ac oil in olive ac honey we. Komtal fin oru ma el sapkin inge komtal ac tia misa, a komtal ac moulna. Nimet lela Hezekiah elan kiapwekomtal mu LEUM GOD El ac molikomtalla.
33 Have the gods of the nations delivered in anywise each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Ku oasr god lun kutena facl ma molela facl selos liki Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria?
34 Where are the gods of Chamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvayim, Hena', and 'Ivvah? have they then delivered Samaria out of my hand?
God lun Hamath ac Arpad eltal oasr ya inge? Ac pia god lun Sepharvaim, Hena, ac Ivvah? Ku oasr sie nu molela acn Samaria?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Pia pacl ma god lun facl nukewa inge molela facl selos liki Tokosra Fulat lasr uh? Na mea oru komtal nunku mu LEUM GOD El ac ku in molela Jerusalem uh?”
36 But the people remained silent, and answered him not a word; for it was the king's command, saying, Ye shall not answer him.
Mwet uh mihselik, oana ma Tokosra Hezekiah el tuh fahk nu selos, ac elos tiana fahkla sie kas.
37 Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyah, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told unto him the words of Rabshakeh.
Na Eliakim, Shebna, ac Joah eltal asor ac seya nuknuk laltal, ac eltal folokla ac fahkang nu sin tokosra ma mwet leum se lun Assyria el fahk ac.
