2 Kings 20
1 In those days was Hezekiah sick to death. Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, "Thus says Jehovah, 'Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live.'"
Masiku amenewo Hezekiya anadwala ndipo anali pafupi kufa. Mneneri Yesaya, mwana wa Amozi anapita kukamuona ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Yehova akuti: Konza nyumba yako chifukwa umwalira ndipo suchira.”
2 Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Jehovah, saying,
Hezekiya anatembenuka nayangʼana ku khoma ndipo anapemphera kwa Yehova kuti,
3 "Remember now, Jehovah, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight." Hezekiah wept bitterly.
“Inu Yehova, kumbukirani ndithu mmene ndayendera mokhulupirika ndi mtima wonse ndipo ndachita zolungama pamaso panu.” Hezekiya analira kwambiri.
4 It happened, before Isaiah had gone out of the middle court, that the word of Jehovah came to him, saying,
Yesaya asanatuluke mʼbwalo lapakati, Yehova anayankhula kuti,
5 "Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, 'Thus says Jehovah, the God of David your father, "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Look, I will heal you. On the third day, you shall go up to the house of Jehovah.
“Bwerera, kamuwuze Hezekiya mtsogoleri wa anthu anga kuti, ‘Yehova Mulungu wa Davide kholo lako akuti: Ndamva pemphero lako ndipo misozi yako ndayiona ndipo ndidzakuchiritsa. Tsiku lachitatu kuchokera lero udzapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova.
6 I will add to your days fifteen years. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake."'"
Ndidzawonjezera zaka khumi ndi zisanu pa moyo wako. Ndidzakupulumutsa iwe pamodzi ndi mzinda umenewu mʼdzanja la mfumu ya ku Asiriya. Ndidzateteza mzinda umenewu chifukwa cha Ine mwini ndiponso chifukwa cha Davide mtumiki wanga.’”
7 Isaiah said, "Take a cake of figs." They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
Pamenepo Yesaya anati, “Konzani phala lankhuyu.” Iwo anakonza phalalo nalipaka pa chithupsacho ndipo Hezekiya anachira.
8 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What shall be the sign that Jehovah will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of Jehovah the third day?"
Tsono Hezekiya anafunsa Yesaya kuti, “Kodi padzakhala chizindikiro chanji choonetsa kuti Yehova adzandichiritsa ndi kuti ndidzapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova pa tsiku lachitatu kuchokera lero lino?”
9 Isaiah said, "This shall be the sign to you from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do the thing that he has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?"
Yesaya anayankha kuti, “Chizindikiro cha Yehova chosonyeza kuti Iye adzachita chimene walonjeza ndi ichi: Kodi chithunzithunzi chipite patsogolo kapena chibwerere pambuyo makwerero khumi?”
10 Hezekiah answered, "It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward ten steps. Nay, but let the shadow return backward ten steps."
Hezekiya anati, “Nʼchapafupi kuti chithunzithunzi chipite patsogolo makwerero khumi, kulekana nʼkuti chithunzithunzicho chibwerere mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi.”
11 Isaiah the prophet cried to Jehovah; and he brought the shadow ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.
Pamenepo mneneri Yesaya anapemphera kwa Yehova ndipo Yehova anachititsa kuti chithunzithunzi chibwerere mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi pa makwerero amene mfumu Ahazi anamanga.
12 At that time Marduk-Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick, and had recovered.
Pa nthawi imeneyo Merodaki-Baladani mwana wa Baladani mfumu ya Babuloni anatumiza amithenga kwa Hezekiya kukapereka makalata ndi mphatso, chifukwa nʼkuti atamva za kudwala kwa Hezekiyayo.
13 Hezekiah was delighted at this, and showed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.
Hezekiya analandira amithengawo ndipo anawaonetsa zonse zimene zinali mʼnyumba zake zosungiramo chuma. Anawaonetsa siliva, golide, zonunkhiritsa zakudya ndi mafuta abwino kwambiri, zida zake zankhondo ndiponso china chilichonse chimene chinali mosungiramo zinthu zake. Panalibe chinthu mʼnyumba yake yaufumu kapena mu ufumu wake wonse chimene Hezekiya sanawaonetse.
14 Then Isaiah the prophet came to king Hezekiah, and said to him, "What did these men say? From where did they come to you?" Hezekiah said, "They have come from a far country, even from Babylon."
Tsono mneneri Yesaya anapita kwa Mfumu Hezekiya namufunsa kuti, “Kodi anthu aja anakuwuzani zotani ndipo anachokera kuti?” Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Anachokera ku dziko lakutali, ku Babuloni.”
15 He said, "What have they seen in your house?" Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them."
Mneneriyo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi anaona chiyani mʼnyumba yanu yaufumu?” Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Anaona china chilichonse mʼnyumba yanga yaufumu ndipo palibe ndi chinthu chimodzi chomwe chimene sindinawaonetse mʼnyumba zanga zosungiramo chuma.”
16 Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of Jehovah.
Pamenepo Yesaya anawuza Hezekiya kuti, “Imvani zimene Yehova akunena:
17 'Look, the days come, that all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store to this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Nothing shall be left,' says Jehovah.
Taonani, masiku akubwera ndithu pamene zonse za mʼnyumba yanu yaufumu, zonse zimene makolo anu anazisunga mpaka lero, zidzatengedwa kupita ku Babuloni. Palibe chimene chidzatsale, akutero Yehova.
18 'Of your sons who shall issue from you, whom you shall father, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.'"
Ndipo ena mwa ana anu omwe, amene mudzabereke adzatengedwa ndipo adzawasandutsa anthu ofulidwa mʼnyumba yaufumu ya mfumu ya Babuloni.”
19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "The word of Jehovah which you have spoken is good." He said moreover, "Isn't it so, if peace and truth shall be in my days?"
Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Mawu a Yehova amene mwayankhulawa ndi abwino. Pakuti iye ankaganiza kuti, ‘Kodi pa nthawi yanga sipadzakhala mtendere ndi bata?’”
20 Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ntchito zina za Hezekiya ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
21 Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
Hezekiya anamwalira nagona pamodzi ndi makolo ake. Ndipo Manase mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
