2 Kings 18
1 And it comes to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz, king of Judah, has reigned;
Ní ọdún kẹta Hosea ọmọ Ela ọba Israẹli, Hesekiah ọmọ Ahasi ọba Juda bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba.
2 he was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi daughter of Zechariah.
Ó jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó ti di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kàndínlọ́gbọ̀n. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Abijah ọmọbìnrin Sekariah.
3 And he does that which [is] right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father David did,
Ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó dára níwájú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i baba rẹ̀ Dafidi ti ṣe.
4 he has turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the Asherah, and beaten down the bronze serpent that Moses made, for up to these days the sons of Israel were making incense to it, and he calls it “a piece of bronze.”
Ó mú ibi gíga náà kúrò, ó sì fọ́ àwọn ère òkúta, ó sì gé àwọn ère Aṣerah lulẹ̀, ó sì fọ́ ejò idẹ tí Mose ti ṣe náà túútúú, títí di ọjọ́ tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń sun tùràrí sí. (Wọ́n sì pè é ní Nehuṣitani.)
5 In YHWH, God of Israel, he has trusted, and after him there has not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who were before him;
Hesekiah sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Kò sì ṣí ẹnìkan tí ó dàbí tirẹ̀ lára gbogbo àwọn ọba Juda, bóyá kí ó tó jẹ tàbí lẹ́yìn rẹ̀.
6 and he cleaves to YHWH, he has not turned aside from after Him, and keeps His commands that YHWH commanded Moses.
Ó súnmọ́ Olúwa, kò sì dẹ́kun láti tì í lẹ́yìn: ó sì pa òfin Olúwa mọ́ tí ó ti fi fún Mose.
7 And YHWH has been with him; in every place where he goes out he acts wisely, and he rebels against the king of Asshur, and has not served him;
Olúwa sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; ó sì ń ṣe rere nínú gbogbo ohun tí ó dáwọ́lé. Ó ṣe ọ̀tẹ̀ sí ọba Asiria kò sì sìn ín.
8 he has struck the Philistines, even to Gaza and its borders, from a tower of watchers to the fortified city.
Láti ilé ìṣọ́ títí dé ìlú olódi, ó sì pa àwọn ará Filistini run, àti títí dé Gasa àti agbègbè rẹ̀.
9 And it comes to pass, in the fourth year of King Hezekiah—it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel—Shalmaneser king of Asshur has come up against Samaria and lays siege to it,
Ní ọdún kẹrin ọba Hesekiah, nígbà tí ó jẹ́ ọdún keje Hosea ọmọ Ela ọba Israẹli. Ṣalamaneseri ọba Asiria yàn lára Samaria ó sì tẹ̀dó tì í.
10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah—it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel—Samaria has been captured,
Lẹ́yìn ọdún mẹ́ta Asiria gbé e. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n kó Samaria ní ọdún kẹfà Hesekiah tí ó sì jẹ́ ọdún kẹsànán Hosea ọba Israẹli.
11 and the king of Asshur removes Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] cities of the Medes,
Ọba Asiria lé Israẹli kúrò ní Asiria, wọ́n sì ṣe àtìpó wọn ní Hala, ní Gosani létí odò Habori àti ní ìlú àwọn ará Media.
12 because that they have not listened to the voice of their God YHWH, and transgress His covenant—all that He commanded Moses, servant of YHWH—indeed, they have not listened nor done [it].
Èyí ṣẹlẹ̀ nítorí wọn kò pa àṣẹ Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn mọ́. Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti dà májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ gbogbo èyí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti pàṣẹ. Wọn kò fi etí wọn sílẹ̀ sí òfin wọn kò sì gbé wọn jáde.
13 And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Asshur has come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seizes them,
Ní ọdún kẹrìnlá tí Hesekiah jẹ ọba, Sennakeribu ọba Asiria kọlu gbogbo ìlú olódi ti Juda ó sì pa wọ́n run.
14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sends to the king of Asshur at Lachish, saying, “I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which you put on me I bear”; and the king of Asshur lays on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold,
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Hesekiah ọba Juda sì ránṣẹ́ yìí sí ọba Asiria ní Lakiṣi, wí pé, “Mo ti ṣẹ̀, padà lẹ́yìn mi: èmi yóò sì san ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá béèrè lọ́wọ́ mi.” Ọba Asiria sì bu fún Hesekiah ọba Juda ọ̀ọ́dúnrún tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà àti ọgbọ̀n tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà.
15 and Hezekiah gives all the silver that is found in the house of YHWH and in the treasures of the house of the king;
Hesekiah fún un ní gbogbo fàdákà tí a rí nínú ilé Olúwa àti nínú ìṣúra ilé ọba.
16 at that time Hezekiah has cut off the doors of the temple of YHWH, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gives them to the king of Asshur.
Ní àkókò yìí Hesekiah ọba Juda ké wúrà tí ó wà ní ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn ilé Olúwa, kúrò àti ti òpó tí Hesekiah ọba Juda ti gbéró ó sì fi fún ọba Asiria.
17 And the king of Asshur sends Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, to King Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [is] in the highway of the fuller’s field.
Ọba Asiria rán alákòóso gíga jùlọ, ìjòyè pàtàkì àti àwọn adarí pápá pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí ó pọ̀, láti Lakiṣi sí ọba Hesekiah ní Jerusalẹmu. Wọ́n wá sí òkè Jerusalẹmu wọ́n sì dúró ní etí ìdarí omi àbàtà òkè, ní ojú ọ̀nà tó lọ sí òpópó pápá alágbàfọ̀.
18 And they call to the king, and Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, go out to them.
Wọ́n sì pe ọba; àti Eliakimu ọmọ Hilkiah ẹni tí í ṣe ilé olùtọ́jú, Ṣebna akọ̀wé, àti Joah ọmọkùnrin Asafu tí ó jẹ́ akọ̀wé ìrántí jáde pẹ̀lú wọn.
19 And the chief of the butlers says to them, “Now say to Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur: What [is] this confidence in which you have confided?
Olùdarí pápá wí fún wọn pé, “Sọ fún Hesekiah pé, “‘Èyí ni ohun tí ọba ńlá, ọba Asiria sọ: Kí ni ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé yìí tí ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé?
20 You have said: Only a word of the lips! Counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom have you trusted that you have rebelled against me?
Ìwọ wí pé ìwọ ni ìmọ̀ àti agbára láti jagun, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ sọ̀rọ̀ òfìfo lásán. Ǹjẹ́ ta ni ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀ rẹ lé, tí ìwọ fi ń ṣe ọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi?
21 Now behold, you have trusted for yourself on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leans on, and it has gone into his hand and pierced it! So [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.
Wò ó, nísinsin yìí, ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀ rẹ lé Ejibiti, ẹ̀rún ọ̀pá pẹlẹbẹ ìyè fífọ́ yìí, èyí tí yóò wọ inú ọwọ́ ẹni tí ó sì bá fi ara tì í. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Farao ọba Ejibiti ṣe rí fún gbogbo àwọn tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀ wọn lé e.
22 And when you say to me, We have trusted in our God YHWH, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has turned aside, and says to Judah and to Jerusalem, You bow yourselves before this altar in Jerusalem?
Tí ìwọ bá sì sọ fún mi pé, “Àwa gbẹ́kẹ̀ wa lé Olúwa Ọlọ́run.” Òun ha kọ́ ní ẹnìkan náà tí ibi gíga àti àwọn pẹpẹ tí Hesekiah mú kúrò, tí ó wí fún Juda àti Jerusalẹmu pé, “O gbọdọ̀ sìn níwájú pẹpẹ yìí ní Jerusalẹmu”?
23 And now, please give a pledge for yourself to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give two thousand horses to you, if you are able to give riders for yourself on them.
“‘Wá nísinsin yìí, ṣe àdéhùn pẹ̀lú ọ̀gá mi, ọba Asiria èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ẹṣin tí ìwọ bá lè kó àwọn tí yóò gùn ún sí orí rẹ!
24 And how do you turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that you trust for yourself on Egypt for chariot and for horsemen?
Báwo ni ìwọ yóò ha ti ṣe le yí ojú balógun kan tí ó kéré jùlọ padà nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ olúwa mi, tí ìwọ sì gbẹ́kẹ̀ rẹ lé Ejibiti fún àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ àti ẹlẹ́ṣin?
25 Have I now come up without YHWH against this place to destroy it? YHWH said to me, Go up against this land, and you have destroyed it.”
Síwájú sí i, èmi ti wá láti mú àti láti parun ibí yìí láìsí ọ̀rọ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa? Olúwa fún rara rẹ̀ sọ fún mi pé kí n yára láti yan lórí ìlú yìí, kí n sì pa á run.’”
26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah says—and Shebna and Joah—to the chief of the butlers, “Please speak to your servants [in] Aramaic, for we are understanding, but do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.”
Nígbà náà Eliakimu ọmọ Hilkiah, àti Ṣebna àti Joah sọ fún olùdarí pápá pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ sọ̀rọ̀ fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ní èdè Aramaiki, nítorí ti ó tí yé wa, má ṣe sọ̀rọ̀ fún wa pẹ̀lú èdè Heberu ní etí ìgbọ́ àwọn ènìyàn tí ń bẹ lórí odi.”
27 And the chief of the butlers says to them, “For your lord, and to you, has my lord sent me to speak these words? Is it not for the men—those sitting on the wall—to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?”
Ṣùgbọ́n aláṣẹ dáhùn pé, “Ṣé fún ọ̀gá rẹ àti ìwọ nìkan ní ọ̀gá mi rán mi sí láti sọ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí kì í sì í ṣe fún àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó jókòó lórí odi ni gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ, ni yóò ní láti jẹ ìgbẹ́ ará wọn kí wọ́n sì mu ìtọ̀ ará wọn?”
28 And the chief of the butlers stands and calls with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaks and says, “Hear a word of the great king, the king of Asshur—
Nígbà náà, aláṣẹ dìde, ó sì pè jáde ní èdè Heberu pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ọba ńlá, ọba Asiria!
29 thus said the king: Do not let Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand;
Èyí ni ohun tí ọba sọ, má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah tàn ọ́ jẹ kò le gbà ọ́ kúrò ní ọwọ́ mi.
30 and do not let Hezekiah make you trust in YHWH, saying, YHWH certainly delivers us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah mú yín gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa nípa sísọ pé, ‘Olúwa yóò gbà wá nítòótọ́; ìlú yìí ni wọn kò ní fi lé ọba ìlú Asiria lọ́wọ́.’
31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur: Make a blessing with me, and come out to me, and each eat of his vine, and each [eat] of his fig tree, and each drink the waters of his own well,
“Má ṣe tẹ́tí sí Hesekiah. Èyí ni ohun tí ọba Asiria wí pé, ‘Fi ẹ̀bùn wá ojúrere mi, kí o sì jáde tọ̀ mí wá.’ Nígbà náà olúkúlùkù yín yóò jẹun láti inú àjàrà rẹ̀ àti igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́, yóò sì mu omi láti inú àmù rẹ̀,
32 until my coming in, and I have taken you to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey; and live, and do not die; and do not listen to Hezekiah when he persuades you, saying, YHWH delivers us.
títí tí èmi yóò fi wá mú ọ lọ sí ilé gẹ́gẹ́ bí i tìrẹ, ilẹ̀ ọkà àti ọtí wáìnì, ilẹ̀ oúnjẹ àti ọgbà àjàrà, ilẹ̀ òróró olifi àti ti ilẹ̀ oyin; yàn ìyè má sì ṣe yàn ikú! “Kí ẹ má ṣe gbọ́ tí Hesekiah, nítorí ó ń tàn yín tí ó ba tí wí pé, ‘Olúwa yóò gbà wá?’
33 Have each of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?
Ṣé òrìṣà àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kankan ti gba ilé rẹ lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọba Asiria?
34 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where [are] the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Níbo ni àwọn òrìṣà Hamati àti Arpadi gbé wà? Níbo ni àwọn òrìṣà Sefarfaimi, Hena àti Iffa gbé wà? Wọ́n ha gba Samaria kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi bí?
35 Who [are they] among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that YHWH delivers Jerusalem out of my hand?”

36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, “Do not answer him.”
Ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà dákẹ́ síbẹ̀ wọn kò sì sọ ohunkóhun, láti fi fèsì, nítorí ọba ti paláṣẹ, “Ẹ má ṣe dá a lóhùn.”
37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, comes in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, to Hezekiah, with torn garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
