2 Kings 20
1 In those days Hezekiah has been sick to death, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet comes to him and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Give a charge to your house, for you are dying, and do not live.”
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Hezekia dze dɔ eye wòɖo kudo nu. Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi yi egbɔ eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ɖɔ wò aƒe ɖo elabena èle kuku ge eye màhaya o.’”
2 And he turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH, saying,
Hezekia trɔ mo ɖo ɖe gli ŋu eye wòdo gbe ɖa, ɖe kuku na Yehowa be,
3 “Ah, now, O YHWH, please remember how I have habitually walked before You in truth and with a perfect heart, and I have done that which [is] good in Your eyes”; and Hezekiah weeps [with] a great weeping.
“Oo Yehowa, ɖo ŋku ale si mezɔ le ŋkuwòme le anukwareɖiɖi me kple ale si metsɔ nye dzi blibo la wɔ nu si nyo le ŋkuwò me la dzi.” Eye Hezekia fa avi vevie.
4 And it comes to pass, [when] Isaiah has not [yet] gone out to the middle court, that the word of YHWH has been to him, saying,
Hafi Yesaya nado le xɔxɔnu titinatɔ me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va nɛ bena,
5 “Return, and you have said to Hezekiah, leader of My people, Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tear, behold, I give healing to you. On the third day you go up to the house of YHWH;
“Trɔ nàyi ɖagblɔ na Hezekia, nye dukɔ ƒe kplɔla be, ‘Ale Yehowa, fofowò David ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: Mese wò gbedodoɖa eye mekpɔ wò aɖatsiwo. Mayɔ dɔ wò. Ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi la, àyi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
6 and I have added fifteen years to your days, and I deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Asshur, and have covered over this city for My own sake, and for the sake of My servant David.”
Mada ƒe wuiatɔ̃ ɖe wò agbenɔƒewo dzi eye maɖe wò kple du sia tso Asiria fia ƒe asi me. Maʋli du sia ta le nye ŋkɔ kple nye dɔla David ta.’”
7 And Isaiah says, “Take a cake of figs”; and they take and lay [it] on the boil, and he revives.
Tete Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Tu gbotsetsewo wòabla nyuie.” Wotui eye wokae ɖo ƒoƒoeawo dzi nɛ eye eƒe lãme se.
8 And Hezekiah says to Isaiah, “What [is] the sign that YHWH gives healing to me, that I have gone up to the house of YHWH on the third day?”
Hezekia bia Yesaya be, “Nu kae anye dzesi be Yehowa ayɔ dɔm eye mayi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi?”
9 And Isaiah says, “This [is] the sign to you from YHWH, that YHWH does the thing that He has spoken—[will] the shadow have gone on ten degrees, or does it turn back ten degrees?”
Yesaya ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Esiae nye Yehowa ƒe dzesi na wò be Yehowa awɔ nu si ƒe ŋugbe wòdo; àdi be vɔvɔli nayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo loo wòayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewoa?”
10 And Hezekiah says, “It has been light for the shadow to incline ten degrees; no, but let the shadow turn backward ten degrees.”
Hezekia gblɔ nɛ be, “Enye nu bɔbɔe be vɔvɔli nayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewo, eya ta na wòayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo boŋ.”
11 And Isaiah the prophet calls to YHWH, and He brings back the shadow by the degrees that it had gone down in the degrees of Ahaz—backward ten degrees.
Tete Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya do ɣli na Yehowa eye Yehowa na vɔvɔli yi megbe ɖoƒe ewo le Ahaz ƒe ɣega te.
12 At that time Berodach-Baladan son of Baladan, king of Babylon, has sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he heard that Hezekiah had been sick;
Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Marduk Baladan, si nye Babilonia fia Baladan ƒe vi la dɔ amewo ɖa be woatsɔ nunana ayi na Hezekia elabena ese be edze dɔ.
13 and Hezekiah listens to them, and shows them all the house of his treasury, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the good ointment, and all the house of his vessels, and all that has been found in his treasuries; there has not been a thing that Hezekiah has not showed them in his house and in all his dominion.
Hezekia xɔ wo nyuie eye wòtsɔ eƒe kesinɔnuwo katã fia wo. Kesinɔnu siawoe nye klosalo, sika, atikeʋeʋĩ, ami xɔasiwo kple aʋawɔnuwo. Naneke mele fiasã la alo dukɔ la me esi Hezekia metsɔ fia wo o.
14 And Isaiah the prophet comes to King Hezekiah and says to him, “What did these men say? And from where do they come to you?” And Hezekiah says, “They have come from a far-off land—from Babylon.”
Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya yi Fia Hezekia gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka dim ame siawo le? Afi ka wotso?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Wotso Babilonia ke.”
15 And he says, “What did they see in your house?” And Hezekiah says, “They saw all that [is] in my house; there has not been a thing that I have not showed them among my treasures.”
Yesaya biae be, “Nu kawoe wokpɔ le wò fiasã me?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Metsɔ nye kesinɔnuwo katã fia wo.”
16 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH:
Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖo to Yehowa ƒe nya sia:
17 Behold, days are coming, and all that [is] in your house, and [all] that your father has treasured up until this day, has been carried to Babylon; there is not a thing left, said YHWH;
Ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esiwo me nu sia nu si le wò fiasã me, kpe ɖe nu siwo katã fofowòwo dzra ɖo ŋu la, woalɔ wo katã ayi ɖe Babilonia. Naneke masusɔ o. Yehowae gblɔe.
18 and of your sons who go out from you, whom you beget, they take away, and they have been eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
Wò dzidzimevi aɖewo kple vi siwo wodzi na wò ŋutɔ hã, woakplɔ wo adzoe, eye woazu ŋutsu tata siwo anye aƒedzikpɔlawo le Babilonia fia ƒe fiasã me.”
19 And Hezekiah says to Isaiah, “The word of YHWH that you have spoken [is] good”; and he says, “Why not, if there is peace and truth in my days?”
Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe nya si nègblɔ la nyo.” Ke nu si tututu wòbu le eɖokui me lae nye, “Ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ ɖeɖe nanɔ anyi le nye ŋutɔ nye agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo me ko!”
20 And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brings in the waters to the city, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Woŋlɔ Hezekia ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa, nu gã siwo wòwɔ abe ta kple tɔʋu siwo wòɖe ene kple ale si wòhe tsi va dua me la ɖe Yuda fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
21 And Hezekiah lies with his fathers, and his son Manasseh reigns in his stead.
Esi Hezekia ku la, via Manase ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
