Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagula eselengela ekufeni. Umphrofethi u-Isaya, indodana ka-Amozi waya kuye wathi, “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Lungisa indlu yakho ngoba uzakufa, awuyikusila.”
2 and to turn: turn Hezekiah face his to(wards) [the] wall and to pray to(wards) LORD
UHezekhiya waphenduka wakhangela emdulini wakhuleka kuThixo esithi,
3 and to say Please! LORD to remember please [obj] which to go: walk to/for face: before your in/on/with truth: faithful and in/on/with heart complete and [the] pleasant in/on/with eye: seeing your to make: do and to weep Hezekiah weeping great: large
“Khumbula, Thixo, ukuthi ngihambe phambi kwakho ngokuthembeka langokuzinikela ngenhliziyo yami yonke, njalo ngenze okuhle emehlweni akho.” UHezekhiya wakhala kabuhlungu.
4 and to be word LORD to(wards) Isaiah to/for to say
Emva kwalokho kwafika ilizwi likaThixo ku-Isaya lisithi:
5 to go: went and to say to(wards) Hezekiah thus to say LORD God David father your to hear: hear [obj] prayer your to see: see [obj] tears your look! I to add upon day your five ten year
“Yana kuHezekhiya uthi kuye, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu kayihlo uDavida, uthi: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho, njalo ngizibonile lezinyembezi zakho. Ngizakwengezelela iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu ekuphileni kwakho.

7 and this to/for you [the] sign: miraculous from with LORD which to make: do LORD [obj] [the] word: thing [the] this which to speak: promise
Lesi yisibonakaliso sikaThixo kuwe sokuthi uThixo uzakwenza njengokuthembisa kwakhe:
8 look! I to return: return [obj] shadow [the] step which to go down in/on/with step Ahaz in/on/with sun backwards ten step and to return: return [the] sun ten step in/on/with step which to go down
Ngizakwenza umthunzi obangelwe lilanga ubuyele emuva amanyathelo alitshumi umthunzi owehle ngawo emakhwelelweni ka-Ahazi.’” Ngakho ukukhanya kwelanga kwabuyela emuva ngamanyathela alitshumi elaselikhothame ngawo.
