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 YHWH, 'Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live.'"

Pea naʻe mahaki ʻa Hesekaia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻo teitei mate. Pea naʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Teuteu ke lelei ho fale he te ke mate, pea ʻikai moʻui.”

2 Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to YHWH, saying,

Pea naʻe toki tafoki ai ʻe ia hono mata ki he holisi, pea ne lotu ʻe ia kia Sihova, ʻo pehē,

3 "Remember now, YHWH, 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.

“ʻOku ou kole kiate koe ʻe Sihova, ke ke manatu eni ʻa ʻeku ʻalu ʻi ho ʻao ʻi he moʻoni pea mo e loto angatotonu, pea kuo u fai ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho ʻao.” Pea naʻe tangi mamahi ʻa Hesekaia.

4 It happened, before Isaiah had gone out of the middle court, that the word of YHWH came to him, saying,

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he teʻeki ʻalu ʻa ʻIsaia ki he loto kolo, mo ʻene haʻu kiate ia ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,

5 "Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, 'Thus says YHWH, 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 YHWH.

“Foki atu, pea tala kia Hesekaia ko e ʻeiki ʻa hoku kakai, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, Kuo u ongoʻi hoʻo lotu, kuo u mamata ki ho ngaahi loʻimata: vakai te u fakamoʻui koe: ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho te ke ʻalu hake ki he fale ʻo Sihova.

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."'"

Pea te u fakatolotolonga ʻa hoʻo ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma nima; pea te u fakamoʻui koe mo e kolo ni mei he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia; pea te u maluʻi ʻae kolo ni koeʻuhi ko au, pea koeʻuhi ko Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki.”

7 Isaiah said, "Take a cake of figs." They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIsaia, “Toʻo mai ha takaonga fiki.” Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻo ʻai ia ki he kiatolo, pea naʻa ne moʻui ai.

8 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What shall be the sign that YHWH will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of YHWH the third day?"

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Hesekaia kia ʻIsaia, “Ko e hā hono fakaʻilonga ʻoe fakamoʻui au, pea ki heʻeku ʻalu hake ki he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho?”

9 Isaiah said, "This shall be the sign to you from YHWH, that YHWH will do the thing that he has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?"

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIsaia, “Ke ke maʻu ʻae fakaʻilonga ko eni meia Sihova, ki heʻene fai moʻoni ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni ʻaia kuo ne folofola ai: ʻe fēfē, ʻe hiki ki muʻa ʻae ata ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu, pe te ne foki ki mui ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu?

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."

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Hesekaia, “Ko eni ko e meʻa maʻamaʻa ke ʻalu hifo ʻae ata ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu: ʻoua naʻa pehē, taʻetuku ke foki ki mui ʻae ata ʻi he tikeli hongofulu.”

11 Isaiah the prophet cried to YHWH; and he brought the shadow ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.

Pea tangi ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia kia Sihova: pea naʻa ne fakafoki ki mui ʻae ata ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu, ʻaia naʻe ʻalu hifo ai ia ʻi he meʻa ʻa ʻAhasi ʻaia naʻe fakaʻilonga ai ʻae ngaahi feituʻulaʻā,

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.

ʻI he kuonga ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Pelotakipalatani, ko e foha ʻo Palatani, ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻae ngaahi tohi mo e meʻaʻofa kia Hesekaia: he naʻe fanongo ia kuo mahaki ʻa Hesekaia.

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.

Pea naʻe tokanga ʻa Hesekaia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae fale kotoa ʻo ʻene ngaahi meʻa maʻongoʻonga, ko e siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi meʻa nanamu mo e lolo maʻongoʻonga, mo e fale ʻo ʻene mahafutau, mo ia kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ʻi hono fale koloa: naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi hono fale, mo hono puleʻanga kātoa naʻe taʻefakahā ʻe Hesekaia, kiate kinautolu.

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."

Pea naʻe toki haʻu ai ʻa ʻIsaia ko e palōfita ki he tuʻi ko Hesekaia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae lea naʻe fai ʻe he kau tangata na? Pea naʻa nau haʻu mei fē kiate koe?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Hesekaia. “Kuo nau haʻu mei he fonua mamaʻo, ʻio, mei Papilone.”

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."

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā kuo nau mamata ki ai ʻi ho fale?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Hesekaia, ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi hoku fale kuo nau mamata ki ai: ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi hoku ngaahi koloa naʻe ʻikai te u fakahā kiate kinautolu.

16 Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Hear the word of YHWH.

Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsaia kia Hesekaia, “Fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova.

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 YHWH.

Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, ʻe fetuku ai ki Papilone ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ho fale, mo ia kotoa pē naʻe tānaki ʻe hoʻo ngaahi tamai ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻE ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe toe.

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.'"

Pea koeʻuhi ʻi ho ngaahi foha ʻe tupu ʻiate koe, ʻaia ʻe fānau kiate koe, te nau ʻave ke mamaʻo; pea te nau nofo ko e kau talifekau ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone.”

19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "The word of YHWH which you have spoken is good." He said moreover, "Isn't it so, if peace and truth shall be in my days?"

Pea naʻe pehē ai ʻe Hesekaia kia ʻIsaia, “ʻOku lelei ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo ke lea ʻaki. Pea pehē ʻe ia, ʻIkai ʻoku lelei, ʻo kapau ʻe ai ʻae melino mo e moʻoni ʻi hoku ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻoku?”

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?

Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Hesekaia, mo ʻene mālohi kotoa pē, pea mo ʻene ngaohi ʻae tukunga vai, mo e tafeʻanga vai, mo ʻene ʻomi ʻae vai ki he kolo, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta?

21 Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Hesekaia mo ʻene ngaahi tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Manase.
