< Isaiah 36 >
1 In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attacked all the fortified cities of Judah and captured them.
Aa ie amy taom-paha folo-efats-ambi’ Iekizkia mpanjakay le naname ze hene rova’ Iehodà nihafatrareñe t’i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asore vaho tinava’e.
2 Then the king of Assyria sent the chief commander from Lachish to Jerusalem to King Hezekiah with a great army. He approached the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway to the launderers' field, and stood by it.
Nirahe’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey boake Lakise mb’am’ Iekizkia e Ierosalaime ao t’i Rabsakè reketse lian-dahin-defo ra’elahy, le nijohañe an-talaha-drano miboak’ amy antara amboney, amy lalan-tetem-panasa-lambay ey.
3 The Israelite officials who went out of the city to talk with them were Hilkiah's son Eliakim, the palace administrator, Shebna the king's secretary, and Asaph's son Joah, who wrote down the government decisions.
Niavotse mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Eliakime, ana’ i Hilkià, mpifelek’ i anjombay naho i Sebna mpanokitse vaho Ioake ana’ i Asafe, mpamolily.
4 The chief commander said to them, “Tell Hezekiah that the great king, the king of Assyria, says, 'What is the source of your confidence?
Hoe t’i Rabsakè tam’ iereo, Volaño henaneo am’ Iekizkia: Hoe ty saontsi’ i mpanjaka ra’elahiy, i mpanjaka’ i Asorey. Ajado’ areo ami’ty inom-bao ze o fatokisa’ areo zao?
5 You speak only useless words, saying there is counsel and strength for war. Now in whom are you trusting? Who has given you courage to rebel against me?
Hoe iraho: fivolan-kòake hao ty atao safiry naho ozatse hahafialy? Aa le ia ty iatoa’ areo, kanao miola amako?
6 Look, you are trusting in Egypt, that splintered reed that you use as a walking staff, 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.
Hehe te iatoa’ areo i fitoñom-bararata vinonotrobokey, i Mitsraime; ie itoñona’ ondaty am-pitàñe le trofake: izay t’i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime amy ze hene miato ama’e.
7 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”?
Aa naho manao ty hoe amako nahareo: Iehovà iatoa’ay t’i Andrianañahare’ay. Aa tsy ie hao ty nañafaha’ Iekizkia o toe’e ankaboañeo naho o kitreli’eo vaho nanao ty hoe am’ Iehodà naho Ierosalaime te amy ze o kitrely zao ty italahoa’ areo?
8 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.
Aa ehe manoa kizè amy taleko mpanjaka’ i Asorey, le hatoloko azo ty soavala ro’arivo, naho mete’o ty hampijoñe mpiningitse ama’e.
9 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!
Akore arè ty hampiambohoa’o ty mpifehe, faragidro’ o mpitoron-talèkoo? te hapite’o amy Mitsraime ty fiatoa’o hahazoa’o sarete naho mpiningitse!
10 Now then, have I traveled up here without Yahweh to fight against this land and destroy it? Yahweh said to me, “Attack this land and destroy it.”'”
Aa vaho nionjoñe mb’an-tane atoy hao iraho handrotsak’ aze tsy ama’ Iehovà? Toe nanao ty hoe amako t’Iehovà: Mionjona haname o tane zao le rotsaho.
11 Then Eliakim son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah said to the chief commander, “Please speak to your servants in the Aramean language, Aramaic, 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.”
Aa le hoe t’i Eliakime, i Sebnà, naho Ioàke amy Rabsakè, Ehe, misaontsia amo mpitoro’oo an-tsaontsi’ i Arame, fa hai’ay; le ko misaontsy ama’ay an-tsaontsi’ Iehodà, am-pijanjiña’ ondaty ambone’ o kijolioo.
12 But the chief commander said, “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?”
Fa hoe t’i Rabsakè: Aa vaho nirahe’ i talèkoy iraho hivolañe amy tale’ areoy naho ama’ areo avao o entako zao, le tsy am’ ondaty mitoboke ambone’ o kijolioo, o nozoñeñe hitraoke ama’ o hikama ty fiamonto’e naho hinoñe ty rano faria’eo?
13 Then the chief commander stood and shouted in a loud voice in the Jews' language, saying, “Listen to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Aa le niongake t’i Rabsakè vaho pinaza’e ty koike, ami’ty saontsi’ Iehodà ty hoe: Janjiño ty saontsi’ i mpanjaka ra’ elahiy, ty mpanjaka’ i Asore!
14 The king says, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to rescue you.
Hoe i mpanjakay, Ko apo’ areo ho fañahie’ Iekizkia, fa tsy ho lefe’e rombaheñe.
15 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in Yahweh, saying, “Yahweh will surely rescue us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.”'
Ko ado’ areo hampiatoa’ Iekizkia am’ Iehovà ami’ty hoe: Toe hamotsotse an-tika t’Iehovà, le tsy hatolotse am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey ty rova toy.
16 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.
Ko haoñe’ areo t’Iekizkia; fa hoe ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, mifampilongoa amako le miavota mb’etoy; fa songa hikama ami’ty vahe’e t’indaty, naho sindre ami’ty sakoa’e t’indaty vaho hene hinon-drano boak’ an-tsajoa’e t’indaty,
17 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.'
ampara’ te homb’eo iraho hanese anahareo mb’an-tane manahake ty tane’ areo, tanen-ampemba naho divay, tane ama mahakama naho tanem-bahe.
18 Do not let Hezekiah mislead you, saying, 'Yahweh will rescue us.' Has any of the gods of the peoples rescued them from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Ko apo’ areo hampivihe’ Iekizkia ami’ ty hoe: Handrombake antika t’Iehovà. Fa ia amo ‘ndrahare’ o kilakila’ ndatio ty nandrombake ty tane’e am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they rescued Samaria from my power?
Aia o ndrahare’ i Kamate naho i Arpadeo? Aia o ndrahare’ i Sefarvaimeo? Fa navotso’ iareo an-tañako hao t’i Somerone?
20 Among all the gods of these lands, is there any god who has rescued his land from my power, as if Yahweh could save Jerusalem from my power?”
Ia amo ndrahare’ i tane rey iabio ty nañaha aze an-tañako, te havotso’ Iehovà an-tañako t’Ierosalaime?
21 But the people remained silent and did not respond, for the king's order was, “Do not answer him.”
Fe nianjiñe avao iereo, leo volañe raike tsy natoi’ iareo aze, amy linili’ i mpanjakaiy, ty hoe: Ko itoiñañe.
22 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.
Nomb’ am’ Iekizkia t’i Eliakime ana’ i Kilkeia mpifeleke i anjombay naho i Sebnà mpanokitse naho Ioàke ana’ i Asafe mpamolily, an-tsaroñe riatse, vaho nitaroñe i enta’ i Rabsakèy.
