2 Kings 20
1 About that time, Hezekiah became very ill. [He thought that he] was about to die. Isaiah the prophet came to him and said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘You should tell the people in your palace what you want them to do after you die, because you are not going to recover from this illness. You are going to die.’”
A kwanakin nan sai Hezekiya ya kamu da rashin lafiya har ya kusa mutuwa. Sai annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya zo wurinsa ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ka kintsa gidanka domin za ka mutu, ba za ka warke ba.”
2 Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall and prayed,
Hezekiya ya juya fuskarsa wajen bango ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji ya ce,
3 “Yahweh, do not forget that I have always served you faithfully, and I have done things that pleased you.” Then Hezekiah started to cry loudly.
“Ya Ubangiji, ka tuna yadda na yi tafiya a gabanka da aminci da zuciya ɗaya, na kuma aikata abin da yake daidai a gabanka.” Sai Hezekiya ya yi kuka mai zafi.
4 Isaiah left the king, but before he had crossed the middle courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave him a message
Kafin Ishaya yă bar tsakiyar filin gida, sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo masa cewa,
5 which said, “Go back to Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, and say to him, ‘I, Yahweh, the God whom your ancestor King David [worshiped], have heard what you prayed. And I have seen your tears. So, listen: I will heal you. Two days from now you will [be able to] go up to my temple.
“Ka koma ka ce wa Hezekiya, shugaban mutanena, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Allah na mahaifinka Dawuda ya ce, na ji addu’arka na kuma ga hawayenka; zan warkar da kai. A rana ta uku daga yau za ka haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji.
6 I will enable you to live for 15 more years. And I will rescue you and this city again from the power [MTY] of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for the sake of my own reputation and because of what I promised King David, who served me [well].’”
Zan ƙara maka shekara goma sha biyar. Zan kuma cece ka daga hannun sarkin Assuriya. Zan kāre birnin nan saboda kaina da kuma bawana Dawuda.’”
7 So Isaiah [returned to the palace and told Hezekiah what Yahweh had said. Then he] [to Hezekiah’s servants], “Bring a paste made of boiled figs. Put some of it on his boil, and he will get well.”
Sai Ishaya ya ce, “A kwaɓa ɓaure.” Sai aka yi haka, aka shafa wa marurun, ya kuma warke.
8 Then Hezekiah replied to Isaiah, “What will Yahweh do to prove that he will heal me and that two days from now I will be able to go up to the temple?”
Hezekiya ya tambayi Ishaya, “Wace alama ce za tă nuna cewa Ubangiji zai warkar da ni, kuma cewa in tafi haikalin Ubangiji kwana uku daga yanzu?”
9 Isaiah replied, “Yahweh will do something that will prove to you that he will do what he promised. Do you want him to cause the shadow on the stairway/sundial to go back ten steps/degrees, or to go forward ten steps/degrees?”
Sai Ishaya ya ce, “Ga alamar Ubangiji zuwa gare ka da za tă nuna cewa Ubangiji zai cika alkawarinsa. Kana so inuwa tă yi gaba da taki goma, ko tă koma baya da taki goma?”
10 Hezekiah replied, “It is easy to cause the shadow to move forward, [because that is what it always does]. Tell him to cause it to move backward ten steps/degrees.”
“Ai, abu mai sauƙi ne inuwa tă yi gaba da taki goma.” In ji Hezekiya, “Gwamma dai tă koma baya da taki goma.”
11 So Isaiah prayed earnestly to Yahweh, and Yahweh caused the shadow to go backward ten steps/degrees on the stairway/sundial that King Ahaz had made (OR, that workers had built for King Ahaz).
Sai annabi Ishaya ya roƙi Ubangiji, Ubangiji kuwa ya sa inuwa ta koma baya da taki goma bisa ga magwajin rana wanda Sarki Ahaz ya gina.
12 At that time, King Merodach-Baladan, the son of Baladan the [previous] King of Babylonia, heard a report that King Hezekiah had been very sick. So he wrote some letters and gave them to some messengers to take to Hezekiah, along with a gift.
A wannan lokaci, Merodak-Baladan ɗan Baladan sarkin Babilon ya aika wa Hezekiya wasiƙu tare da kyauta, domin ya sami labarin rashin lafiyar Hezekiya.
13 [When the messengers arrived], Hezekiah welcomed them gladly. Then he showed them everything that was in his (treasure houses/places where very valuable things were stored)—the silver and gold, the spices, the nice-smelling olive oil, and all the weapons [for his soldiers]. He showed them all the [valuable] things in his storerooms and everywhere else in his kingdom [HYP]; he showed them everything.
Hezekiya ya karɓi jakadun, ya nuna musu dukan abin da yake a ɗakunan ajiyarsa, azurfa, zinariya, kayan ƙanshi da mai, wurin ajiye makamansa da kuma dukan abin da aka samu a ɗakin ajiyarsa. Babu wani abu a fadansa ko a dukan mulkinsa da Hezekiya bai nuna musu ba.
14 Then the prophet Isaiah went to Hezekiah and asked him, “Where did those men come from, and what did they say to you?” Hezekiah replied, “They came from a country very far from here. They came from Babylonia.”
Sai annabi Ishaya ya tafi wurin Sarki Hezekiya ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Me mutanen nan suka ce, kuma daga ina suka fito?” Sai Hezekiya ya ce, “Daga ƙasa mai nisa. Daga Babilon.”
15 Isaiah asked, “What did they see in your palace?” Hezekiah replied, “They saw everything. I showed them absolutely everything that I own—all my valuable things.”
Annabin ya yi tambaya, “Me suka gani a fadanka?” Hezekiya ya ce, “Ba abin da yake a ma’ajina da ban nuna musu ba.”
16 [Isaiah knew that Hezekiah had done a very foolish thing]. So Isaiah said to him, “Listen to what Yahweh says to you.
Sai Ishaya ya ce wa Hezekiya, “Ka ji kalmar Ubangiji.
17 There will be a time when everything that is still in your palace, all the valuable things that were put there by you and your ancestors, will be carried away to Babylon. There will be nothing left here! [That is what] Yahweh says [to you]
Lokaci yana zuwa da za a kwashe kome a fadanka da kuma dukan abubuwan da kakanninka suka tara har yă zuwa yau, a kai su Babilon. Ba abin da za a rage, in ji Ubangiji.
18 Furthermore, some of your own descendants will be forced to go there, and they will be castrated in order that they may become servants in the palace of the King of Babylon.”
Za a kuma kwashe waɗansu daga cikin zuriyarka, na jiki da jininka waɗanda za a haifa maka, su zama bābānni a fadan sarkin Babilon.”
19 Then Hezekiah replied to Isaiah, “That message from Yahweh that you have given to me is good.” He said that because he was thinking, “Even if that happens, there will be peace and security [in Israel] all the rest of my life.”
Hezekiya ya ce, “Maganar Ubangiji da ka faɗa ta yi kyau.” Gama ya yi tunani cewa, “Ai, ba ni da damuwa, tun da yake za a yi zaman lafiya da salama a kwanakina.”
20 [If you want to know more about] [RHQ] all the other things that Hezekiah did, about his brave deeds in battle, about his ordering a reservoir to be built in the city and a tunnel [to be dug] to bring water into the reservoir, they are all written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Hezekiya, dukan nasarorinsa da yadda ya yi tafki da kuma bututun ruwa inda ya kawo ruwa cikin birni, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Yahuda.
21 Later Hezekiah died [EUP], and his son Manasseh became the king.
Hezekiya ya huta tare da kakanninsa. Manasse ɗansa kuma ya gāje shi.
