< Isaiah 36 >

1 Now it happened in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all of the fortified cities of Judah, and captured them.
A shekara ta goma sha huɗu ta mulkin Sarki Hezekiya, Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya kai wa dukan birane masu kagaran Yahuda yaƙi ya kuma kame su.
2 The king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to king Hezekiah with a large army. He stood by the aqueduct from the upper pool on the highway to the Launderers' Field.
Sai sarkin Assuriya ya aiki sarkin yaƙinsa tare da mayaƙa masu yawa daga Lakish zuwa wurin Sarki Hezekiya a Urushalima. Sa’ad da sarkin yaƙi ya tsaya a wuriyar Tafkin Tudu, a hanya zuwa Filin Mai Wanki,
3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder came out to him.
Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka fita zuwa wurinsa.
4 Rabshakeh said to them, "Now tell Hezekiah, 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, "What confidence is this in which you trust?
Sai sarkin yaƙin ya ce musu, “Ku faɗa wa Hezekiya. “‘Ga abin da babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya, ya faɗa. A kan me kake dangana wannan ƙarfin halinka?
5 Do you think that empty words are strategy and power for war? Now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
Ka ce kana da dabara da kuma ƙarfin mayaƙa, amma kana magana banza ce kawai. Ga wa ka dogara, da kake tayar mini?
6 Look, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt, which if a man leans on it, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Yanzu duba, kana dogara ga Masar, wannan ɗan tsinken kyauron dogarawa, wanda zai soki hannun mutum yă kuma ji masa rauni in ya dangana a kansa! Haka Fir’auna sarkin Masar yake ga duk wanda ya dogara da shi.
7 But if you tell me, 'We trust in the LORD our God,' isn't that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'You shall worship before this altar?'"
Kuma in ka ce mini, “Mun dogara ga Ubangiji Allahnmu ne” ba shi ba ne Hezekiya ya rurrushe masujadan kan tudunsa da bagadansa, yana ce wa Yahuda da Urushalima, “Dole ku yi sujada wa gaban wannan bagade”?
8 Now therefore, please make a pledge to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them.
“‘Yanzu fa, bari in yi ciniki da maigidana, sarki Assuriya. Zan ba ka dawakai dubu biyu, in za ka sa mahaya a kansu!
9 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Yaya za ka ƙi hafsan mafi ƙanƙanci na hafsoshin maigidana, ko da yake kana dogara ga Masar don kekunan yaƙi da mahayan dawakai?
10 Have I come up now without the LORD against this land to destroy it? The LORD said to me, "Go up against this land, and destroy it."'"
Ban da haka kuma, na zo ne in faɗa in kuma hallaka wannan ƙasa ba tare da Ubangiji ba? Ubangiji kansa ya faɗa mini in tasar wa wannan ƙasa in kuma hallaka ta.’”
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in the Jews' language in the hearing of the people who are on the wall."
Sai Eliyakim, Shebna da Yowa suka ce wa sarkin yaƙin, “Ka yi haƙuri ka yi wa bayinka magana da Arameyanci, da yake muna jinsa. Kada ka yi mana magana da Yahudanci a kunnen mutanen da suke kan katanga.”
12 But Rabshakeh said, "Has my master sent me only to your master and to you, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit on the wall, who will eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you?"
Amma sarkin yaƙin ya amsa ya ce, “Kuna tsammani ga maigidanku da ku ne kawai maigidana ya aiko ni in yi waɗannan maganganu, ba ga mutanen da suke zama a kan katanga ba, waɗanda kamar ku, za su ci kashinsu su kuma sha fitsarinsu?”
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and called out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, "Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Sa’an nan sarkin yaƙin ya tsaya ya kuma yi kira da Yahudanci ya ce, “Ku ji kalmomin babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya!
14 Thus says the king, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you.
Ga abin da sarki ya ce kada ku bar Hezekiya ya ruɗe ku. Ba zai cece ku ba!
15 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, "The LORD will surely deliver us. This city won't be given into the hand of the king of Assyria."'
Kada ku bar Hezekiya ya rarashe ku ku dogara ga Ubangiji sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Tabbatacce Ubangiji zai cece mu; ba za a ba da wannan birni a hannun sarkin Assuriya ba.’
16 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria, 'Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and each of you eat from his vine, and each one from his fig tree, and each one of you drink the waters of his own cistern;
“Kada ku saurari Hezekiya. Ga abin da sarkin Assuriya ya faɗa. Ku nemi salama da ni ku kuma fito zuwa wurina. Ta haka kowa zai ci daga kuringarsa da kuma itacen ɓaurensa ya kuma sha ruwa daga tankinsa,
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
sai na zo na kuma kwashe ku zuwa ƙasa kamar taku, ƙasar hatsi da kuma sabon ruwan inabi, ƙasar abinci da gonakin inabi.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, "The LORD will deliver us." Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their lands from the hand of the king of Assyria?
“Kada ku bar Hezekiya ya ruɗe ku sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ubangiji zai cece mu.’ Allahn wata al’umma ya taɓa ceci ƙasarsa daga hannun sarkin Assuriya?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Iwah? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Ina allolin Hamat da na Arfad? Ina allolin Sefarfayim? Sun fanshi Samariya daga hannuna?
20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'"
Wanne cikin dukan allolin ƙasashen nan ya iya ceton ƙasarsa daga gare ni? Yaya kuwa Ubangiji zai iya ceci Urushalima daga hannuna?”
21 But they remained silent, and said nothing in reply, for the king's commandment was, "Do not answer him."
Amma mutanen suka yi shiru ba su kuwa ce kome ba, gama sarki ya yi umarni cewa, “Kada ku amsa masa.”
22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda, da kuma Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka tafi wurin Hezekiya, da rigunansu a kyakkece, suka kuwa faɗa masa abin da sarkin yaƙin ya yi ta farfaɗa.
