2 Kings 18
1 Now in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz, king of Judah began to reign.
A shekara ta uku ta mulkin Hosheya ɗan Ela sarkin Isra’ila, Hezekiya ɗan Ahaz sarkin Yahuda ya fara mulki.
2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah; she was the daughter of Zechariah.
Yana da shekara ashirin da biyar da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara ashirin da tara a Urushalima. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Abiya’yar Zakariya.
3 He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, following the example of all that David, his ancestor, had done.
Ya aikata abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji yadda kakansa Dawuda ya yi.
4 He removed the high places, destroyed the stone pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke to pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, because in those days the people of Israel were burning incense to it; it was called “Nehushtan.”
Ya kawar da masujadan kan tudu, ya farfasa keɓaɓɓun duwatsu, ya sassare ginshiƙan Ashera. Ya fashe macijin tagullan da Musa ya yi, gama har zuwa lokacin nan Isra’ilawa suna ƙona turare gare shi. (An ba shi suna Nehushtan.)
5 Hezekiah trusted in Yahweh, the God of Israel, so that after him there was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among the kings who were before him.
Hezekiya ya dogara ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila. Ba a yi wani kamar sa ba cikin dukan sarakunan Yahuda; ko kafin shi, ko kuma bayansa.
6 For he held on to Yahweh. He did not stop following him but kept his commandments, which Yahweh commanded Moses.
Ya manne wa Ubangiji, bai fasa binsa ba; ya yi biyayya da dokokin da Ubangiji ya ba wa Musa.
7 So Yahweh was with Hezekiah, and wherever he went he prospered. He rebelled against the king of Assyria and did not serve him.
Ubangiji kuma ya kasance tare da shi, ya yi nasara a duk abin da ya sa hannu. Ya yi tawaye ga sarkin Assuriya, ya ƙi yă bauta masa.
8 He attacked the Philistines to Gaza and the borders around, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
Daga hasumiya zuwa birni mai katanga, ya ci Filistiyawa da yaƙi, har zuwa Gaza da kewaye.
9 In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it.
A shekara ta huɗu ta Hezekiya, wato, shekara ta bakwai ke nan ta mulkin Hosheya ɗan Ela sarkin Isra’ila; Shalmaneser Sarkin Assuriya ya tasam ma Samariya da yaƙi; ya kewaye ta.
10 At the end of three years they took it, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel; in this way Samaria was captured.
A ƙarshen shekara ta uku, Assuriyawa suka ci Samariya da yaƙi. An ci Samariya da yaƙi a shekara ta shida ta mulki Hezekiya, wanda ya zo daidai da shekara ta tara ta mulkin Hosheya sarkin Isra’ila.
11 So the king of Assyria carried Israel away to Assyria and put them in Halah, and at the Habor River in Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Sarkin Assuriya ya kwashe Isra’ila zuwa Assuriya ya zaunar da su a Hala, da Gozan a kogin Habor da kuma garuruwan Medes.
12 He did this because they did not obey the voice of Yahweh their God, but they violated the terms of his covenant, all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded. They refused to listen to it or do it.
Wannan ya faru ne domin ba su yi biyayya ga Ubangiji Allahnsu ba, amma suka karya alkawarinsu; da dukan abin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarta. Ba su saurari umarnin ba, balle su kiyaye su.
13 Then in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all the fortified cities of Judah and captured them.
A shekara ta goma sha huɗu ta mulkin sarkin Hezekiya, sai sarki Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya kai farmaki wa biranen Yahuda masu katanga ya kuma kama su.
14 So Hezekiah king of Judah sent word to the king of Assyria, who was at Lachish, saying, “I have offended you. Withdraw from me. Whatever you put on me I will bear.” The king of Assyria required Hezekiah king of Judah to pay three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
Sai Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda ya aika saƙo ga sarkin Assuriya a Lakish cewa, “Na yi laifi, ka janye daga gare ni, zan kuma biya ka duk abin da ake bukata daga gare ni.” Sarkin Assuriya ya karɓi talenti ɗari uku na azurfa, da talenti talatin na zinariya daga hannun Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda.
15 So Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of Yahweh and in the treasuries of the king's palace.
Ya zama kuwa cewa, Hezekiya ya bayar da dukan azurfan da suke a haikalin Ubangiji da kuma a ma’ajin fadan sarki.
16 Then Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of Yahweh and from the pillars that he had overlaid; he gave the gold to the king of Assyria.
A wannan lokaci ne Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda ya ɓaɓɓalle zinariyan da aka dalaye ƙofofi da madogaran ƙofofin haikalin Ubangiji, ya ba sarkin Assuriya.
17 But the king of Assyria mobilized his great army, sending Tartan and Rabsaris and the chief commander from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They traveled up the roads and arrived outside Jerusalem. They approached the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the launderers' field, and stood by it.
Sai sarkin Assuriya ya aika da babban shugaban sojojinsa, da shugaban dattawansa, da wakilinsa daga birnin Lakish tare da ƙungiyar sojoji masu yawa zuwa Urushalima domin su yaƙi Sarki Hezekiya. Da suka haura sai suka tsaya a wurin lambatun da yake kawo ruwa daga Tafkin Tudu, kusa da hanyar Filin Mai Wanki.
18 When they had called to King Hezekiah, Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder, went out to meet them.
Suka kira sarki, sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, da Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka je wurinsu.
19 So the chief commander said to them to tell Hezekiah what the great king, the king of Assyria, said: “What is the source of your confidence?
Jagoran dogarawan sarkin Assuriya ya ce musu, “Ku ce wa Hezekiya, “‘Ga abin da babban sarkin Assuriya ya ce, da wa kake taƙama?
20 You speak only useless words, saying there are allies and strength for war. In whom are you trusting, that you should rebel against me?
Ka ce kana da dabara da ƙarfin soji, amma bagu kawai kake yi. Da wa ka dogara har da za ka yi mini tawaye?
21 Look, you trust in the walking stick of this bruised reed of Egypt, but if a man leans on it, it will stick into his hand and pierce it. That is what Pharaoh king of Egypt is to anyone who trusts in him.
Na sani kana dogara da Masar, wadda take kamar karar masara, wadda in ka jingina a kai, za tă karye tă soki hannunka. Haka Fir’auna sarkin Masar yake ga dukan wanda ya dogara da shi.
22 But if you say to me, 'We are trusting in Yahweh our God,' is not he the one whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'You must worship before this altar in Jerusalem'?
Sai ya ci gaba da cewa, in kuma ka ce mini “Muna dogara ga Ubangiji Allahnmu ne,” ba masujadansa da bagadansa ne Hezekiya ya ciccire, yana ce wa Urushalima da Yahuda, “Dole ku yi sujada a gaban wannan bagade a Urushalima”?
23 Now therefore, I want to make you a good offer from my master the king of Assyria. I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to find riders for them.
“‘Yanzu, ka zo ku shirya da shugabana, sarkin Assuriya. Zan ba ka dawakai dubu biyu, in za ka sami mahayansu!
24 How could you resist even one captain of the least of my master's servants? You have put your trust in Egypt for chariots and horsemen!
Yaya za ka yi tsayayya da mafi ƙanƙantan hafsan shugabana, ko da kana dogara da Masar don kekunan yaƙi da mahaya dawakai?
25 Have I traveled up here without Yahweh to fight against this place and destroy it? Yahweh said to me, 'Attack this land and destroy it.'”
Ban da haka ma, kana gani cewa na zo in hallaka wannan wuri ne ba tare da na ji daga Ubangiji ba? Ubangiji da kansa ne ya ce da ni in kawo wa wannan ƙasa hari in hallaka ta.’”
26 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah said to the chief commander, “Please speak to your servants in the Aramaic language, for we understand it. Do not speak with us in the language of Judah in the ears of the people who are on the wall.”
Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya, da Shebna, da Yowa suka ce wa jagoran dakarun, “Muna roƙonka ka yi wa bayinka magana da harshen Arameyik da yake muna ji. Kada ka yi mana magana da Yahudanci domin kada mutanen da suke bisa katanga su ji!”
27 But the chief commander said to them, “Has my master sent me to your master and to you to speak these words? Has he not sent me to the men who sit on the wall, who will have to eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you?”
Amma shugaban sojojin ya ce, “Ai, ba gare ku da sarkinku kaɗai ne shugabana ya aike ni ba. Amma har ga mutanen da suke zaune a kan katangar birnin, waɗanda za su ci kashinsu, su sha fitsarinsu!”
28 Then the chief commander stood and shouted in a loud voice in the Jews' language, saying, “Listen to the word of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Sai shugaban sojojin ya yi kira da Yahudanci ya ce, “Ku ji muryar babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya!
29 The king says, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to rescue you from my power.
Ga abin da sarki ya faɗa; kada ku bar Hezekiya yă ruɗe ku. Ba zai iya cetonku daga hannuna ba.
30 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in Yahweh, saying, “Yahweh will surely rescue us, and this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”'
Kada ku yarda Hezekiya yă rinjaye ku cewa ku dogara ga Allah, sa’ad da ya ce da ku, ‘Ba shakka Ubangiji zai cece mu; yana ce da ku birnin nan ba zai faɗa a hannun sarkin Assuriya ba.’
31 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says: 'Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and from his own fig tree, and drink from the water in his own cistern.
“Kada ku saurari Hezekiya. Ga abin da sarkin Assuriya ya ce, ku shirya zaman lafiya da ni, ku fito zuwa wurina. Kowane ɗayanku kuwa zai ci’ya’yan inabinsa da’ya’yan ɓaurensa, yă kuma sha ruwa daga randarsa,
32 You will do this until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey, so that you may live and not die.' Do not listen to Hezekiah when he tries to persuade you, saying, 'Yahweh will rescue us.'
har lokacin da zan zo in kwashe ku, in kai ku wata ƙasa mai kama da taku, ƙasa mai yalwar hatsi, da ruwan inabi, da abinci, da gonakin inabi, da itatuwan zaitun, da zuma, don ku rayu, kada ku mutu! “Kada ku saurari Hezekiya, don karya yake muku, sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ubangiji zai cece mu.’
33 Has any of the gods of the peoples rescued them out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Akwai allahn wata al’ummar da ya taɓa ceton ƙasarsa daga hannun sarkin Assuriya?
34 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Have they rescued Samaria out of my hand?
Ina allolin Hamat da na Arfad? Ina allolin Sefarfayim, da na Hena, da na Iffa? Sun cece Samariya daga hannuna?
35 Among all the gods of the lands, is there any god who has rescued his land from my power? How could Yahweh save Jerusalem from my might?”
Wanne a cikin dukan allolin ƙasashen nan ya iya ceton ƙasarsa da gare ni? Shugaban sojojin ya kuma ci gaba da cewa, ta yaya Ubangiji zai ceci Urushalima daga hannuna?”
36 But the people remained silent and did not respond, for the king had commanded, “Do not answer him.”
Amma mutane suka yi shiru ba su amsa masa ba, domin sarki ya umarta cewa, “Kada ku amsa masa.”
37 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who was over the household; Shebna the scribe; and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and reported to him the words of the chief commander.
Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya, sarkin fada, da Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf, marubuci, suka je wurin Hezekiya da tufafinsu a kece, suka faɗa masa abin da shugaban sojojin ya faɗa.
