Isaiah 36
1 Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up, against all the fortified cities of Judah and took 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 Then did the king of Assyria send Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem unto King Hezekiah with a heavy force, —and he took his stand by the upper channel of the pool, in the highway of the fuller’s 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 And there went out to him—Eliakim son of Hilkiah who was over the household, —and Shebna, the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder.
Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka fita zuwa wurinsa.
4 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Pray you say unto Hezekiah, —Thus, saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What is this trust, wherewith thou dost 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 I have said [sayest thou] —they are only words of the lips—Counsel and might have I for the war, —Now, upon whom dost thou trust, that thou hast 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 Lo! thou dost trust on the support of this bruised cane, on Egypt, whereon if a man lean it will enter his hand and lay it open, —So, is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust upon 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 thou shouldst say unto me, In Yahweh our God, do we trust, Then is that not he whose high places and whose altars, Hezekiah hath removed, and said unto Judah and unto Jerusalem, Before this altar, shall ye bow yourselves down?
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, pledge thyself I pray thee with my lord, the king of Assyria, —That I supply thee with two thousand horses, If thou on thy part be able to set riders upon 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 wilt thou turn away the face of one pasha of the least of my lord’s servants? Or hast thou on thy part trusted upon 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 But, now, is it, without Yahweh, that I have come up against this land to destroy it? Yahweh himself, said unto me, Go thou 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 said Eliakim, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh—Speak we pray thee unto thy servants in the Syrian language, for we, can, understand, it, —and do not speak unto us in the Jews’ language, in the ears of the people who are upon 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—Is it unto thy lord and unto thee, that my lord hath sent me, to speak these things? Is it not concerning the men who are tarrying upon the wall, that they may eat and drink what cometh from them, 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 So then Rabshakeh took his stand, and cried out with a loud voice, in the Jews’ language, and said, Hear ye 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, saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you, —for he shall 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 Neither let Hezekiah cause you to trust in Yahweh saying, Yahweh, will certainly deliver, us, —this city shall not be given over, 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 hearken unto Hezekiah, —for, thus, saith the king of Assyria, Deal with me thankfully, and come out unto me, Then shall ye eat, Every one of his own vine and Every one of his own fig-tree, And drink every one 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, into A land like your own land, —A land of corn 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 Lest Hezekiah, persuade you, saying, Yahweh will deliver us! Have the gods of the nations, delivered, —any one of them—his country, out of 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? If indeed they had only delivered Samaria, out of 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, Yahweh, 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 held their peace, and answered him not a word, —for the command of the king, it was, saying, —Ye must 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 came in—Eliakim son of Hilkiah who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder, unto Hezekiah, with rent clothes, —and they 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.
