< 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.”
Matukũ-inĩ macio Hezekia akĩrwara, na aarĩ hakuhĩ gũkua. Mũnabii Isaia mũrũ wa Amozu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Thondeka maũndũ ma mũciĩ waku, tondũ nĩũgũkua, ndũkũhona.”
2 And he turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH, saying,
Hezekia akĩhũgũra ũthiũ wake, akĩrora rũthingo-inĩ, na akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ,
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.
“Wee Jehova, ririkana ũrĩa ngoretwo ngĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya kwĩhokeka mbere yaku, na ngeheana na ngoro yakwa yothe, na ngeeka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ maku.” Nake Hezekia akĩrĩra mũno.
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,
Isaia atanakinya nja ya gatagatĩ-rĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩmũkinyĩra, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
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;
“Cooka, ũkeere Hezekia mũtongoria wa andũ akwa atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: Nĩnjiguĩte ihooya rĩaku, na ngoona maithori maku; nĩngũkũhonia. Mũthenya wa ĩtatũ kuuma rĩu nĩũkambata ũthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
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.”
Nĩngũkuongerera mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtano ya gũtũũra muoyo. Na nĩngũkũhonokia hamwe na itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩngũgitĩra itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene nĩ ũndũ wakwa, na nĩ ũndũ wa Daudi ndungata yakwa.’”
7 And Isaiah says, “Take a cake of figs”; and they take and lay [it] on the boil, and he revives.
Ningĩ Isaia akiuga atĩrĩ, “Thondekai gĩkũmba kĩa ngũyũ.” Nao magĩĩka o ũguo, na magĩkĩigĩrĩra ihũha-inĩ rĩu, nake Hezekia akĩhona.
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 nĩoorĩtie Isaia atĩrĩ, “Kĩmenyithia gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩrĩkũ kĩa atĩ Jehova nĩekũũhonia, na atĩ nĩngambata thiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova mũthenya wa gatatũ kuuma ũmũthĩ?”
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?”
Nake Isaia akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩmenyithia kĩrĩa Jehova egũkũhe, kĩa atĩ Jehova nĩegwĩka ũndũ ũcio akwĩrĩire: Ũkwenda kĩĩruru gĩthiĩ mbere makinya ikũmi, kana gĩcooke thuutha makinya ikũmi?”
10 And Hezekiah says, “It has been light for the shadow to incline ten degrees; no, but let the shadow turn backward ten degrees.”
Nake Hezekia akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kĩĩruru gũthiĩ na mbere makinya ikũmi nĩ ũndũ mũhũthũ, nĩ kaba kĩĩruru gĩcooke na thuutha makinya ikũmi.”
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.
Nake mũnabii Isaia agĩkaĩra Jehova, nake Jehova agĩtũma kĩĩruru gĩcooke na thuutha makinya macio ikũmi marĩa gĩaikũrũkĩte ngathĩ-inĩ ya Ahazu.
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;
Ihinda-inĩ rĩu-rĩ, Merodaki-Baladani mũrũ wa Baladani mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩatũmĩire Hezekia marũa na kĩheo, tondũ nĩaiguĩte ũhoro wa ndwari ya Hezekia.
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 akĩamũkĩra andũ arĩa maatũmĩtwo, na akĩmoonia indo ciothe iria aigĩte makũmbĩ make, akĩmoonia betha, na thahabu, na mahuti marĩa manungi wega, na maguta marĩa mega mũno, na indo ciake cia mbaara, na indo ciothe iria ciarĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciake. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kana kĩarĩ ũthamaki-inĩ wake wothe Hezekia ataamoonirie.
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.”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Isaia agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Hezekia akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ acio moiga atĩa, na mekuumĩte kũ?” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Moimĩte bũrũri wa kũraya, megũkĩte kuuma bũrũri wa Babuloni.”
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.”
Nake mũnabii akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ monire nyũmba-inĩ yaku ya ũthamaki?” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Monire indo ciothe nyũmba-inĩ yakwa ya ũthamaki. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩrĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciakwa itanamonia.”
16 And Isaiah says to Hezekiah, “Hear a word of YHWH:
Nake Isaia akĩĩra Hezekia atĩrĩ, “Ta igua kiugo kĩa Jehova:
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;
Ti-itherũ ihinda nĩrĩgakinya, rĩrĩa indo ciothe iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yaku ya ũthamaki, na indo iria ciothe maithe maku matũire maigĩte nginya ũmũthĩ, ĩgaakuuo itwarwo Babuloni. Gũtirĩ o na kĩmwe gĩgaatigara, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
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.”
Na andũ amwe a rũciaro rwaku, o arĩa moimĩte mũthiimo-inĩ na thakame-inĩ yaku, o arĩa wee ũgũciara, nĩmagathaamio, na nĩmakaahakũrwo nĩguo matungatage nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
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?”
Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa waria nĩ kĩega,” Tondũ eeciiririe atĩrĩ, “Githĩ gũtigũkorwo na thayũ na ũgitĩri matukũ-inĩ mothe ma muoyo wakwa?”
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?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Hezekia, na marĩa mothe eekire, na ũrĩa aathondekire Karia, o na mũtaro wa kũrehe maaĩ itũũra-inĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
21 And Hezekiah lies with his fathers, and his son Manasseh reigns in his stead.
Nake Hezekia akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Manase agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
