< 2 Chronicles 32 >

1 After these things done in faithfulness, came Sennacherib king of Assyria, —and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fortified cities, and thought to break into them for himself.
Ary rehefa afaka izany raharaha marina izany, dia avy Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, niditra tany Joda ary nanao fahirano ny tanàna mimanda ka nikasa hanafaka azy.
2 And, when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come, —and that, his face, was—to war, against Jerusalem,
Ary nony hitan’ i Hezekia fa tonga Sankeriba ka nikasa hamely an’ i Jerosalema,
3 he took counsel with his captains and his heroes, to stop the waters of the fountains, which were outside the city, —and they helped him.
dia niara-nihevitra tamin’ ny mpanapaka sy ny lehilahy mahery izy mba hanampina ny rano tamin’ ny loharano eny ivelan’ ny tanàna; ary nanampy azy ireo.
4 And there were gathered together much people, so they stopped all the fountains, and the torrent that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, —Wherefore should the kings of Assyria come, and find many waters?
Dia nivory ny olona maro ka nanampina ny loharano rehetra sy ilay renirano mamaky eo afovoan’ ny tany, fa hoy izy: Nahoana no avela hahita rano be ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria, raha avy?
5 And he took courage, and built all the wall that was broken down and carried up thereon towers, and, on the outside, another wall, and strengthened Millo, the city of David, -and made weapons in abundance, and bucklers,
Dia nohereziny namboariny avokoa izay rava tamin’ ny manda sady nasiany tilikambo teny amboniny sy manda hafa koa teo ivelany, dia namboatra an’ i Milo tao an-tanànan’ i Davida sady nanao lefona aman’ ampinga betsaka izy.
6 and set captains of war over the people, —and gathered them together unto him in the broadway of the gate of the city, and spake unto their heart, saying, —
Ary nanendry mpifehy miaramila hifehy ny olona izy ka nampiangona azy hankeo aminy teo an-kalalahana akaikin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanàna, dia nanao teny famporisihana taminy hoe:
7 Be strong and bold, do not fear neither be dismayed, because of the king of Assyria, nor because of all the multitude that is with him, —for, with us, is One greater than with him:
Mahereza ka matanjaha; aza matahotra na mivadi-po noho ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria sy ny hamaroan’ ny olona rehetra izay entiny; fa ny momba antsika dia be noho ny momba azy.
8 with him, is an arm of flesh, but, with us, is Yahweh our God, to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people leaned upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
Sandry nofo no momba azy, fa Jehovah Andriamanitsika kosa no momba antsika hamonjy antsika ka hiady ny adintsika. Ary dia niankina tamin’ ny tenin’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ny olona.
9 After this, Sennacherib king of Assyria sent his servants towards Jerusalem, himself, being near Lachish, and all his imperial might with him, —unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that was in Jerusalem, saying:
Rehefa afaka izany, dia nirahin’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, ny mpanompony hankany Jerosalema (fa izy sy ny miaramilany rehetra kosa nanao fahirano an’ i Lakisy tamin’ izay) ho any amin’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ho any amin’ ny Joda rehetra izay tany Jerosalema ka nanao hoe:
10 Thus, saith Sennacherib, king of Assyria, -Upon what, are, ye, trusting, that ye are awaiting the siege in Jerusalem?
Izao nolazain’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria: Inona izato itokianareo, no dia miaritra fahoriana ato Jerosalema ianareo?
11 Is not, Hezekiah, persuading you, so as to deliver you up to die with hunger and with thirst, saying, —Yahweh our God, will deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Tsy Hezekia ihany va no manambosy anareo hanole-tena ho faty mosary sy hetaheta ka anao hoe: Jehovah Andriamanitsika hamonjy antsika amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria?
12 Is it not, the same Hezekiah, who hath removed his high places, and his altars, —and hath given word to Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Before one altar, shall ye bow yourselves down, and, thereupon, shall ye burn incense?
Tsy io Hezekia io ihany koa va no nandrava ny fitoerana avony sy ny alitarany ary nandidy ny Joda sy Jerosalema ka nanao hoe: Eo anoloan’ ny alitara iray no iankohofanareo sy handoroanareo ditin-kazo manitra?
13 Will ye not take note, what I have done, I and my fathers, to all the peoples of the countries? Have the gods of the nations of the countries been, at all able, to deliver their country, out of my hand?
Tsy fantatrareo va izay nataoko, dia izaho sy ny razako, tamin’ ny firenena rehetra tany amin’ ny tany hafa? Moa ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ireny va nisy nahavonjy ny taniny akory tamin’ iny tanako?
14 Who, among all the gods of these nations whom my fathers devoted to destruction, hath ever been able to deliver his people out of my hand, —that your god should be able to deliver you out of my hand?
Iza amin’ ny andriamanitr’ ireo firenena efa naringan’ ny razako ireo no nahavonjy ny olony tamin’ ny tanako, ka dia hahavonjy anareo amin’ ny tanako va ny Andriamanitrareo?
15 Now, therefore, do not let Hezekiah beguile you nor persuade you thus, neither do ye believe him. For no, god, of any nation or kingdom hath ever been able to deliver his people out of my hand, or out of the hand of my fathers, -how much less shall, your gods, deliver you, out of my hand?
Koa ankehitriny, aza avela hamitaka anareo Hezekia, na hitaona anareo tahaka izao; aza mino azy ianareo; fa tsy nisy andriamanitra tany amin’ ny firenena sy ny fanjakana rehetra izay nahavonjy ny olony tamin’ ny tanako sy ny tanan’ ny razako; koa aiza ny Andriamanitrareo no hahavonjy anareo amin’ ny tanako?
16 And, yet more, spake his servants, against Yahweh, God, —and against Hezekiah his servant.
Ary ny mpanompon’ i Sankeriba mbola niteny ratsy an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra sy Hezekia mpanompony,
17 Letters, also wrote he, to scoff at Yahweh God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, Like the gods of the nations of the countries, who delivered not their people out of my hand, so, shall the god of Hezekiah not deliver his people out of my hand.
sady nanoratra taratasy hihaika an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, sy hiteny ratsy Azy ka nanao hoe: Tahaka ny tsy nahavonien’ ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ny olony tamin’ ny tanako no tsy hahavonjen’ ny Andriamanitr’ i Hezekia ny olony koa amin’ ny tanako.
18 Then cried they out, with a loud voice, in the Jews’ language, unto the people of Jerusalem who were upon the wall, to affright them, and to terrify them, —to the end they might capture the city.
Dia niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery izy ka nanao teny Jiosy teo anatrehan’ ny mponina tany Jerosalema izay teny ambonin’ ny manda hampitahorany sy hampangorohoroany azy mba hahafahany ny tanàna.
19 And they spake against the God of Jerusalem, —as against the gods of the peoples of the earth, the work of the hands of men.
Ary Andriamanitr’ i Jerosalema koa dia mba nolazainy toy ny filazàny ireny andriamanitry ny firenena tany amin’ ny tany hafa ireny, izay asan’ tànan’ olona ihany.
20 And Hezekiah the king and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, prayed concerning this, -and made outcry unto the heavens,
Ary noho izany dia nivavaka Hezekia mpanjaka sy Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza, ka nitaraina tamin’ ny lanitra.
21 So Yahweh sent a messenger, who cut off every hero of valour, and chief ruler and captain, in the camp of the king of Assyria, —and he returned with shame of face to his own land, and, when he entered the house of his god, then, the issue of his own body—there, caused him to fall by the sword.
Ary Jehovah naniraka anjely izay nandringana ny lehilahy mahery rehetra sy ny mpanapaka ary ny komandy teo an-tobin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria, ka dia lasa nody amin-kenatra Sankeriba. Ary nony niditra tao an-tranon’ ny andriamaniny izy, dia namono azy tao tamin’ ny sabatra ny zanany naterany.
22 Thus did Yahweh save Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem out of the hand of Sennacherib king of Assyria, and out of the hand of every one, —and gave them rest on every side.
Toy izany no namonjen’ i Jehovah an’ i Hezekia sy ny mponina tany Jerosalema tamin’ ny tànan’ i Sankeriba, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, sy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalony rehetra; eny, niaro azy tamin’ ny manodidina rehetra Izy.
23 And, many, were bringing in a present unto Yahweh, to Jerusalem, and precious things, unto Hezekiah king of Judah, —so that he was exalted in the eyes of all the nations, from thenceforth.
Ary ny maro nitondra fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema sy zava-tsoa ho an’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda; dia nalaza teo imason’ ny firenena rehetra izy hatramin’ izany.
24 In those days, was Hezekiah sick unto death, —and, when he prayed unto Yahweh, he was entreated of him and, a wonderful token, he gave him.
Tamin’ izany andro izany dia narary efa saiky maty Hezekia, koa dia nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah izy, ary Jehovah niteny taminy ka nanome azy famantarana.
25 But, not according to the benefit done unto him, did Hezekiah make return, for uplifted was his heart, —and so there came upon him, wrath, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
Fa Hezekia tsy mba namaly araka izay soa efa natao taminy; fa niavonavona ny fony, dia niharan’ ny fahatezerana izy mbamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema.
26 Then Hezekiah humbled himself, for the uplifting of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, —so that the wrath of Yahweh came not upon them, in the days of Hezekiah.
Kanefa Hezekia nanetry tena noho ilay efa niavonavonan’ ny fony, dia izy sy ny mponina tany Jerosalema, ka dia tsy niharan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah ireo fahavelon’ i Hezekia.
27 And it came to pass that, Hezekiah, had riches and honour in great abundance, —and, treasuries, made he for himself—for silver and for gold and for costly stones, and for spices and for precious things, and for all utensils to be coveted;
Ary Hezekia nanana harena sy voninahitra be indrindra; dia nanao trano firaketana izy hitehirizany ny volafotsy sy ny volamena sy ny vato soa sy ny zava-manitra sy ny ampinga mbamin’ izay fanaka tsara rehetra,
28 storehouses also, for the increase of corn, and new wine and oil, —and cribs for every kind of beast, and cribs for the flocks;
ary tanàna fitehirizana ny vokatra koa, dia ny vary sy ny ranom-boaloboka ary ny diloilo, sy trano miefitrefitra hitoeran’ ny biby fiompy samy hafa karazana ary vala hitoeran’ ny ondry aman’ osy.
29 and, cities, made he for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds, in abundance, —for God had given him exceeding great wealth.
Ary nanao tanàna maro ho azy koa izy sady nanana ondry aman’ osy ary omby betsaka, fa nomen’ Andriamanitra fananana be indrindra izy.
30 And, the same Hezekiah, stopped up the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down the west side of the city of David, —and Hezekiah prospered in all his work.
Ary notampenan’ io Hezekia io ny fivoahan’ ny rano ambony any Gihona ka nampandehaniny tany ambanin’ ny tany hidina mahitsy ho any andrefan’ ny Tanànan’ i Davida izany. Ary nambinina tamin’ ny asany rehetra Hezekia.
31 Yet verily, with regard to the ambassadors of the rulers of Babylon, who sent unto him to enquire concerning the wonderful token which came to pass in the land, God left him, —to prove him, to take note of all that was in his heart.
Nefa noho ny amin’ ny irak’ ireo mpanapaka tany Babylona, izay naniraka tany aminy mba hanontany ny amin’ ny zava-mahagaga natao teo amin’ ny tany, dia nilaozan’ Andriamanitra izy, mba hizahany toetra azy hahalalany izay rehetra ao am-pony.
32 But, the rest of the story of Hezekiah, and his lovingkindnesses, there they are, written in the visions of Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, in the book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
Ary ny tantaran’ i Hezekia sisa mbamin’ ny soa nataony, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny fahitan’ Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza, sy ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny Isiraely izany.
33 And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the ascent of the sepulchres of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him, honour, in his death, —and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
Ary Hezekia lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao amin’ ny fiakarana ho any amin’ ny fasan’ ny zanak’ i Davida izy; ary ny Joda rehetra sy ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema nanome voninahitra azy tamin’ ny nahafatesany. Ary Manase zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
