< Isaiah 38 >
1 In the days those he became sick Hezekiah to die and he went to him Isaiah [the] son of Amoz the prophet and he said to him thus he says Yahweh command to household your for [are] about to die you and not you will live.
Matukũ-inĩ macio Hezekia akĩrwara, hakuhĩ akue. Mũnabii Isaia mũrũ wa Amozu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Thondeka maũndũ ma mũciĩ waku, tondũ nĩũgũkua, ndũkũhona.”
2 And he turned Hezekiah face his to the wall and he prayed to Yahweh.
Hezekia akĩhũgũra ũthiũ wake, akĩrora rũthingo-inĩ, na akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ,
3 And he said I beg you O Yahweh remember please this: I have walked about before you in faithfulness and with a heart complete and the good in view your I have done and he wept Hezekiah weeping great.
“Wee Jehova, ririkana ũrĩa ngoretwo ngĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya kwĩhokeka mbere yaku, na ngeheana na ngoro yakwa yothe, na ngeeka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ maku.” Nake Hezekia akĩrĩra mũno.
4 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Isaiah saying.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Isaia, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
5 Go and you will say to Hezekiah thus he says Yahweh [the] God of David ancestor your I have heard prayer your I have seen tear[s] your here I he will add to days your fif-teen year[s].
“Cooka ũkeere Hezekia atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: Nĩnjiguĩte ihooya rĩaku na ngoona maithori maku; nĩngũkuongerera mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtano ya gũtũũra muoyo.
6 And from [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria I will deliver you and the city this and I will defend the city this.
Nĩngũkũhonokia hamwe na itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩngũgitĩra itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene.
7 And this for you [will be] the sign from with Yahweh that he will do Yahweh the thing this which he has spoken.
“‘Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩmenyithia kĩrĩa Jehova egũkũhe atĩ Jehova nĩegwĩka ũndũ ũcio akwĩrĩire:
8 Here I [am] about to turn back [the] shadow of the steps which it had gone down on [the] steps of Ahaz with the sun backwards ten steps and it went back the sun ten steps on the steps which it had gone down.
Nĩngatũma kĩĩruru kĩa riũa gĩcooke na thuutha makinya ikũmi marĩa gĩikũrũkĩte ngathĩ-inĩ ya Ahazu.’” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũtheri wa riũa ũgĩcooka na thuutha makinya ikũmi marĩa waikũrũkĩte.
9 A writing of Hezekiah [the] king of Judah when was sick he and he lived from sickness his.
Maya nĩmo maandĩko ma Hezekia mũthamaki wa Juda marĩa aandĩkire thuutha wa kũrũara na kũhona:
10 I I said in [the] half of days my let me go in [the] gates of Sheol I have been caused to miss [the] remainder of years my. (Sheol )
Niĩ ndoigire atĩrĩ, “O rĩrĩa matukũ ma muoyo wakwa magaacĩra-rĩ, no rĩo ngũthiĩ ndonye ihingo-inĩ cia gĩkuũ, na ndunywo mĩaka yakwa ĩrĩa ĩtigarĩte?” (Sheol )
11 I said not I will see Yahweh Yahweh in [the] land of the living not I will look at humankind again with [the] inhabitants of cessation.
Ngĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndikona Jehova rĩngĩ, ndikona Jehova ndĩ bũrũri ũyũ wa arĩa matũũraga muoyo; gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ ngona mũndũ wa thĩ, kana ngorwo hamwe na arĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩ.
12 Dwelling-place my it has been pulled up and it has been removed from me like [the] tent of shepherd my I have rolled up like weaver life my from [the] loom he cuts off me from day unto night you make an end of me.
Nyũmba yakwa nĩĩtharĩĩtio, ĩkeherio kũrĩ niĩ, o ta ũrĩa hema ya mũrĩithi yambũragwo. Nĩngũnjĩte muoyo wakwa ta ũrĩ taama wa mũndũ ũrĩa ũtumaga na mĩtambo, na rĩu nĩkũndinia ekũndinia anjeherie mũtambo-inĩ ũcio wake; mũthenya na ũtukũ-rĩ, ũtuĩkĩte o wa kũũniina.
13 I have lain down until morning like lion so he breaks all bones my from day unto night you make an end of me.
Ndetereire ngirĩrĩirie nginya gũgĩkĩa, na akiunanga mahĩndĩ makwa mothe o ta mũrũũthi. Mũthenya na ũtukũ-rĩ, wee ũtuĩkĩte o wa kũũniina.
14 Like a swallow a crane so I chirp I moan like dove they are cast down eyes my to the height[s] O Lord oppression [belongs] to me stand surety for me.
Ngĩkaya ta hũngũrũrũ kana mũrũaru, ngĩcaaya o ta ũrĩa ndutura ĩcaayaga. Maitho makwa makĩaga hinya nĩgũcũthĩrĩria igũrũ. Ndĩ mũthĩĩnĩku; Wee Mwathani ũka ũndeithie!”
15 What? will I say and he has spoken to me and he he has acted I will walk deliberately all years my on [the] bitterness of self my.
No ingĩkiuga atĩa? Nĩanjarĩirie, na nĩwe mwene wĩkĩte ũguo. Mĩaka yakwa yothe ndĩrĩthiiaga ndĩnyiihĩtie, tondũ wa ruo rũrũ rwa ngoro yakwa.
16 O Lord on them people live and to all in them [the] life of spirit my and may you restore to health me and preserve alive me.
Mwathani, andũ matũũraga moonaga maũndũ ta maya; o naguo roho wakwa ũtũũraga muoyo wonaga maũndũ o ta macio. Wanjookeirie ũgima wa mwĩrĩ, na ũkĩreka ndũũre muoyo.
17 Here! for welfare it was bitter to me bitterly and you you loved life my from [the] pit of destruction for you threw away behind back your all sins my.
Ti-itherũ ũhoro ũcio warĩ wa kũngʼuna, nĩkĩo ndaiguire ruo rũnene ũguo. Nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku, nĩwagirĩrĩirie ndoonye irima rĩa mwanangĩko; mehia makwa mothe nĩũriganĩirwo nĩmo.
18 For not Sheol it gives thanks to you death it praises you not they hope [those who] go down of [the] pit to faithfulness your. (Sheol )
Nĩgũkorwo mbĩrĩra ndĩngĩhota gũkũgooca, o nakĩo gĩkuũ gĩtingĩkũgooca; arĩa maharũrũkaga irima rĩu matingĩgĩa na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩa wĩhokeku waku. (Sheol )
19 [the] living [the] living He he gives thanks to you as I this day a father to children he makes known concerning faithfulness your.
Arĩa marĩ muoyo, o acio matũũraga muoyo-rĩ, nĩmakũgoocaga, ta ũrĩa ndĩreka ũmũthĩ; maithe ma ciana nĩo meraga ciana ũhoro wa wĩhokeku waku.
20 Yahweh [is] to save me and songs my we will play all [the] days of lives our at [the] house of Yahweh.
Jehova nĩakahonokia, na nĩtũkaina tũrĩ na inanda cia mũgeeto matukũ mothe ma muoyo witũ, tũrĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
21 And he said Isaiah let them take a cake of figs and let them rub [it] on the boil so he may live.
Isaia oigĩte atĩrĩ, “Thondekai ngũmba ya ngũyũ, mũmĩigĩrĩre ihũha-inĩ, na nĩekũhona.”
22 And he said Hezekiah what? [will be the] sign that I will go up [the] house of Yahweh.
Hezekia oorĩtie atĩrĩ, “Kĩmenyithia gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩrĩkũ atĩ nĩngambata thiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova?”
