< Isaiah 36 >

1 When King Hezekiah had been [ruling Judah] for almost 14 years, King Sennacherib of Assyria came [with his army] to attack the cities in Judah that had walls around them. [They did not conquer Jerusalem, but] they conquered all the other cities.
Hanki Hezekaia'ma kinima manino egeno 14nima hia kafufina, Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'a marerino Juda mopafima hankavenentake vihuma hu'naza ranra kumatmina ha' eme huzmanteno eri vagare'ne.
2 Then the king of Assyria sent a large army with some of his important officials from Lachish [city] to [persuade] King Hezekiah [to surrender]. When they arrived at Jerusalem, they stood in their positions alongside the aqueduct/channel in which water flows into the upper pool [into Jerusalem], near the road to the field where the women wash clothes.
Ana hu'neankino Asiria kini ne'mo'a Lakisi kumate mani'nereti sondia vahete kva vahe'ene rama'a sondia vahe'ene huzmantege'za kini ne' Hezekaia'ma Jerusalemi kumate'ma mani'nerega vu'naze. Hagi Jerusalemi vute'za sondia vahete kva ne' Rabsaki'a vuno kumamofo anaga kazigama me'nea tirupinti'ma mopama kafi'za tima avre'za Jerusalemi kumapima urami'nazare oti'ne. Hagi anama kafi'za tima avre'naza tinkamo'a, kukenama sesema nehazaregama vu'nea kamofo tva'onte me'ne.
3 The Israeli officials who went out of the city to talk with them were Hilkiah’s son Eliakim, the (palace administrator/man who supervised the workers in the palace), Shebna the king’s secretary, and Asaph’s son Joah, who wrote down the government decisions.
Hagi anante kinimofo nompi kva ne' Hilkia nemofo Eliakimiki avontafe'ma kre eri'zama eneria ne' Sibnaki, kinimo'ma tro'ma nehiazama avompima krenentea ne' Asapu nemofo Joaki hu'za ana ne'ma mani'nerega e'naze.
4 Then one of Sennacherib’s important officials told them to take this message to Hezekiah: This is what the King of Assyria, the great king, says: “What are you trusting in to rescue you?
Hanki ana Asiria sondia vahete ugota kva ne' Rebsaki'a ana 3'a nagara amanage huno zamasami'ne, Hezekaiana amanage huta ome asamiho, marerisa Asiria kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, kagra inankna hankaveka'agu antahintahia nehunka knare hu'noe hunka nehane?
5 You say that you have weapons to fight us and some country’s promises [to help you], [and that will enable you to defeat us], but that is only talk [RHQ]. Who do you think will help you to rebel against my [soldiers from Assyria]?
Hagi keagage'ma hu'zampintira magora hara agateregahampi? Iza naza hugahie hunka kagesa nentahinka nagrira hara renenantane?
6 Listen to me! You are relying on [the army of] Egypt. But [that will be like] [MET] using a broken reed for a walking stick on which you could lean. [But] it would pierce the hand of anyone who would lean on it! That is what the King of Egypt would be like for anyone who relied on him [for help].
Hanki ko, menina Isipi vahe'mo'za naza hugahaze hunka kagra antahi amuha nehane. Hianagi Isipi kini ne' Fero avu'avamo'a, mago hakemo hagege hiaza hu'neankino, ana kanonte'ma azama erino rempimpima hanimofona ana azotamo'a futagino azampi kota aheaza hugahie. Hagi Feronte'ma amuha'ma hunemiza vahe'mo'za e'inahu hu'za haviza hugahaze.
7 But perhaps you will say to me, ‘[No], we are relying on Yahweh our God [to help us].’ [I would reply], ‘Is he not the one whom [you insulted by] tearing down his shrines and altars and forcing everyone in Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah to worship [only] in front of the altar [in Jerusalem]?’
Hianagi Hezekai'a menina Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofonku antahi nemifi? Na'ankure kora Hezekaia'a Ra Anumzamofoma agonaramimpima mono'ma hunentaza kumatamine kresramna vu itaraminema me'neana, eri atre vaganereno, Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemima nemaniza vaheku'ma zamasamino, Jerusalemima magoke'ma me'nea kresramna vu itareke ofa hiho huno hu'nea ne' mani'ne.
8 So I suggest that you make a deal with my master/boss, the king of Assyria. I will give you 2,000 horses, but [I do not think that] you can find 2,000 of your men who can ride on them!
Hagi tamagrama antahintahi tamima rukrahe'ma hanaza nanekea menina kvani'a Asiria kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, tamagrama sondia nagatamima knare'ma hu'nesnage'na, hosi agumpima mani'nezama ha'ma hanaza zana 2 tauseni'a hosi afutami tamigahue hu'ne.
9 You are expecting the king of Egypt to send chariots and men riding horses [to assist you]. But they certainly would not [RHQ] be able to resist/defeat even the most insignificant/unimportant official in the army of Assyria!
Hagi tamagra Isipi vaheku'ma antahizamita karisiramine hosi afutaminena eme taza hanageta hara hugahune hutma nentahize. Hianagi nagri kva ne'mofo sondia vahe'mokizmi kva vahepinti mago agi omane kva ne'mo tamagrira hara huramagateregahie.
10 Furthermore, [do not think that] [RHQ] we have come here to attack and destroy this land without Yahweh’s orders! It is Yahweh himself who told us to come here and destroy this land!”
Tamagrama antahi'zana agra'a antahi'zanteti e'no hara huranteno mopatia eri haviza huku nehie hutma nentahizafi? I'o. Ra Anumzamo hunanteno marerinka vunka ama kumara hara ome huntenka eri haviza huo huno hunante'ne.
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna, and Joah said to the official from Assyria, “Please speak to us in [your] Aramaic language, because we understand it. Do not speak to us in [our] Hebrew language, because the people who are standing on the wall will understand it [and become frightened].”
Hagi anante Eliakimiki, Sibnaki, Joaki hu'za anankema nentahi'za, Asiria sondia vahete kva nera amanage hu'za asami'naze. Tagra eri'za vahekamota muse hugantonanki, Aramu kea antahi'nonanki, antahinoma kefinti tasamio, na'ankure kagrama Hibru tagerupinti'ma nerasaminanke'za, kuma keginamofo agofetu'ma mani'naza vahe'mo'za anankea antahigahaze.
12 But the official replied, “Do you think that my master sent me to say these things [only] to you, and not to the people standing on the wall [RHQ]? [If you reject this message], the [people in this city] will soon need to eat their own dung and drink their own urine, just like you will, [because there will be nothing more for you to eat or drink].”
Hianagi Asiria sondia vahete kva ne' Rebsakia amanage hu'ne, nagri kva ne'mo'ma ama'na kema atrege'nama eri'na e'noana, tamagri kva nete'ene tamagriteke'za atrege'na ome'noanki, anamu kuma kegina agofetu'ma mani'naza vahe'mo'zanena ama nanekea antahigahaze. Na'ankure ha'ma erita eta Jerusalemi kuma'ma eme avazagi kagisanunketa tamagra kva vahe'ene maka vahe'motanena rifane avinena retma negahaze.
13 Then the official stood up and shouted in the Hebrew language [to the people sitting on the wall]. He said, “Listen to this message from the great king, the King of Assyria!
Anage nehuno ana Asiria sondia kva ne'mo'a Hibru kefinti kezatino amanage hu'ne, marerisa Asiria kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'neanki antahiho.
14 He says, ‘Do not allow Hezekiah to deceive you! He will not be able to rescue you!
Tamagra atrenkeno Hezekaia'a reramataga osino, na'ankure Hezekai'a tamagrira hara huno tamagura vazigara osu'ne.
15 Do not allow him to persuade you to trust in Yahweh, saying that Yahweh will rescue you, and that [the army of] the King of Assyria will never capture this city!’
Hezekaia'ma huno Ra Anumzamo'a taza hanigeta Asiria vahera hara huzmagatereta Jerusalemi kumara agu'vazigahune huno'ma hania kegura tamentintia osiho.
16 Do not pay attention to what Hezekiah says! This is what the king [of Assyria] says: ‘Come out of the city and surrender to me. [If you do that, I will arrange for] each of you to drink the juice from your own grapevines and to eat figs from your own trees, and to drink water from your own well.
Hagi Hezekaia nanekea tamagra antahi omiho. Asiria kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'neanki antahiho. Tamagrama fru huta mani'neta tamagra'a waini hozafinti tagita neneta, tamagra'a fiki zafareti tagita neneta, tamagra'a tinkerifinti'ma tima afitama nesanunema hanutma, atretma nagrite enketa tarimpa fru hutama manisnuna nanekea erinte fatgo hamneno.
17 [You will be able to do that] until we come and take you to a land that is like your land—a land where there is grain to make bread and [vineyards to produce grapes for making] new wine and, and where we make lots of bread.’
Hagi anama huta mani'nesnage'na nagra eme tamavre'na mago mopa tamagri mopagna moparega ome tamantegahue. Ana mopafina waini tima tro hu'zana, waini hoza rama'a megeno, bretima tro hu'zana, witi hoza rama'a me'ne.
18 Do not allow Hezekiah to mislead you by saying, “Yahweh will rescue us.” The gods that people of other nations worship have never [RHQ] rescued any of them from the power [MTY] of the King of Assyria!
Hagi Hezekaia'ma tamagriku'ma huno Ra Anumzamo'a taza hanigeta Asiria vahera hara hu zamageteregahune huno nehiana reramatga nehianki kva hiho. Hianagi ama mopafina mago'a vahe'mofona ru anumzamo'a aza higeno, Asiria kini nera hara hugatere'nefi? I'o.
19 Why were the gods of Hamath and Arpad [cities], and the gods of Sepharvaim unable to rescue Samaria from my power [MTY]?
Hagi Hamati vahe'ma Arpati vahe'ma Sefarvaimi vahe'ma huta ko'ma ha'ma hu zamagtere'nonana anumzazmimo'a iga mani'neno zamaza osu'ne. Ana hige'na Sameria kuma'enema ha'ma hunte'noana anumza'zmimo'a zamaza osige'na, hara hugaterogeno Sameria kumamo'a nagri nazampi me'ne.
20 No, no god [RHQ] of any nation has been able to rescue their people from me. So why do you think that Yahweh will rescue you people of Jerusalem from my power [MTY]?’”
Hanki tagra rama'a kumatmi hara hu zamagate re'nonanagi, anumza zamimo'za zamaza osazageta mopazmia eri'none. E'ina hu'negu inankna huno Ra Anumzamo'a tamaza hanigeta, hara hutma Jerusalemi rankumara agura vazigahaze?
21 But the people [who were listening] were silent. No one said anything, because King [Hezekiah] had commanded, “[When the official from Assyria talks to you], do not answer him.”
Hianagi Asiria sondia vahete kva ne'mo'ma hia nanekerera magore hu'za kenona'a osu'naze. Na'ankure kini ne' Hezekaia huzmanteno magore hutma ke'arera kenona osiho huno huzmante'nege'za anara hu'naze.
22 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah returned to Hezekiah with their clothes torn [because they were extremely distressed]. They told him what the official from Assyria had said.
Anante kini ne'mofo nompima kegavama nehia ne' Hilkia nemofo Eliakimiki, avontafe'ma erinte fatgoma huno negrea ne' Sibnaki, kinimo'ma tro'ma nehia zamofoma avompima krenentea ne' Joaki hu'za, kukena zamia tagato tagutu hute'za kini ne' Hezekaiante vu'za, Asiria sondia vahete kva ne' Rabsaki'ma hu'nea nenekea ome asami'naze.
