< 2 Kings 18 >
1 In the thridde yeer of Osee, sone of Hela, kyng of Israel, regnyde Ezechie, sone of Achaz, kyng of Juda.
Nʼafọ nke atọ nke ọchịchị Hoshea nwa Elaa eze Izrel ka Hezekaya nwa Ehaz eze Juda malitere ọchịchị nke ya.
2 He was of fyue and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde in Jerusalem nyne and twenti yeer; the name of his modir was Abisa, douyter of Zacharie.
Ọ gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe ọ malitere ị bụ eze. Ọ chịrị iri afọ abụọ na itoolu na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Abija, ada Zekaraya.
3 And he dide that, that was good bifor the Lord, bi alle thingis, which Dauid, his fadir, hadde do.
O mere ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, dịka nna nna ya Devid.
4 And he distriede hiye places, and al to-brak ymagis, and kittide doun wodis, and he brak the brasun serpent, whom Moyses hadde maad; for `til to that tyme the sones of Israel brenten encense to it; and he clepide the name therof Noestam.
O wepụrụ ebe niile dị elu, kurisie ogidi nsọ niile, gbutukwa ogidi Ashera niile. O tipịakwara agwọ bronz ahụ Mosis mere, nʼihi na ruo nʼoge ahụ, ụmụ Izrel na-esure aja nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nye ya. (A kpọrọ ya Nehushtan.)
5 And he hopide in the Lord God of Israel; therfor aftir hym noon was lijk hym of alle the kyngis of Juda, but `and nether in tho kyngis that weren bifor hym.
Hezekaya tụkwasịrị Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel obi ya. Nʼezie, o nwekwaghị onye ọzọ dị ka ya nʼetiti ndị eze Juda niile, ndị bu ya ụzọ chịa, na ndị so ya.
6 And he cleuyde to the Lord, and yede not awei fro hise steppis, and he dide the comaundementis of the Lord, whiche the Lord comaundide to Moises;
Ọ gbasoro Onyenwe anyị nʼụzọ niile. O sitekwaghị nʼụzọ Onyenwe anyị wezuga onwe ya. O debere ihe niile Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis nʼiwu.
7 wherfor and the Lord was with hym, and he gouernede wiseli hym silf in alle thingis, to whiche he yede forth. Also he rebellide ayens the kyng of Assiriens, and therfor he seruede not to `that kyng of Asseriens;
Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere ya nʼebe ọbụla ọ gara, ihe niile o mere gaara ya nke ọma. O nupuru isi jụ ịnọkwa nʼokpuru eze ndị Asịrịa, o fekwaghị ya ofufe.
8 and he smoot Philisteis `til to Gazam, and alle the termes of hem, fro the tour of keperis `til to a citee maad strong.
O tigburu ndị Filistia nʼala ha niile ruo na Gaza, na obodo dị ya gburugburu. Ọ lara obodo ahụ niile nʼiyi, obodo ukwu niile e wusiri ike na obodo nta niile a na-ewusighị ike.
9 In the fourthe yeer of kyng Ezechie, that was the seuenthe yeer of Osee, sone of Hela, kyng of Israel, Salmanazar, kyng of Assiriens, stiede to Samarie,
Nʼafọ nke anọ nke ọchịchị Hezekaya, nke bụkwa afọ nke asaa nke ọchịchị Hoshea nwa Elaa, bụ eze Izrel, Shalmanesa, eze Asịrịa gbagoro imegide Sameria, nọchibido ya gburugburu.
10 and fauyt ayens it, and took it. For after thre yeer, in the sixte yeer of Ezechie, that is, in the nynthe yeer of Osee, kyng of Israel, Samarie was takun;
Mgbe afọ atọ gasịrị, nʼafọ nke isii nke ọchịchị Hezekaya, na afọ nke itoolu nke ọchịchị Hoshea, bụ eze Izrel, ndị agha Asịrịa dọtara Sameria nʼagha.
11 and the kyng of Assiriens translatide Israel in to Assiriens, and settyde hem in Haila, and in Habor, ryueris of Gozam, in the citees of Medeis;
Ọ bụ nʼoge ahụ ka eze Asịrịa bupụrụ ndị Izrel niile bulaa ha Asịrịa nʼime obodo Hala, na Gozan nʼakụkụ iyi ukwu Hoboa, na nʼobodo ndị Midia.
12 for thei herden not the vois of her Lord God, but thei braken his couenaunt; thei herden not, nether diden alle thingis, whiche Moises, the seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide.
Nke a mere nʼihi na ha jụrụ ige ntị nʼolu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ha, jụkwa ime ihe ọ chọrọ ka ha mee. Ha edebeghị ọgbụgba ndụ ya na iwu niile Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị nyere ha. Ha jụrụ ige ntị nʼiwu ndị a, maọbụ debe ha.
13 In the fourtenthe yeer of kyng Ezechie, Senacherub, kyng of Assiryens, stiede to alle the strengthide citees of Juda, and took tho.
Nʼafọ nke iri na anọ nke ọchịchị eze Hezekaya, Senakerib bụ eze Asịrịa, busoro obodo Juda niile e wusiri ike agha, merikwaa ha.
14 Thanne Ezechie, kyng of Juda, sente messangeris to the kyng of Assiriens in to Lachis, and seide, Y haue synned; go awei fro me, and Y schal bere `al thing, which thou schalt putte to me. Therfor the kyng of Asseriens puttide on Ezechie, kyng of Juda, thre hundrid talentis of siluer, and thretti talentis of gold.
Mgbe ahụ, Hezekaya chọrọ ụzọ ọ ga-esi mee udo, zie ozi zigara eze Asịrịa nʼobodo Lakish sị ya, “Emehiela m, biko, site nʼala m pụọ. Aga m akwụ gị ihe ọbụla ị chọrọ nʼaka m.” Eze Asịrịa sitere nʼaka Hezekaya eze Juda nara narị talenti ọlaọcha atọ, na iri talenti ọlaedo atọ.
15 And Ezechie yaf al the siluer, that was foundun in the hows of the Lord, and in the kyngis tresories.
Hezekaya chịịrị ọlaọcha niile ọ chọtara nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na akụ niile dị nʼụlọeze, nye ya eze Asịrịa.
16 In that tyme Ezechie brak the yatis of the temple of the Lord, and the platis of gold, whiche he hadde fastned, and he yaf tho to the kyng of Assiriens.
Nʼoge ahụ, Hezekaya bụ eze Juda, nyakapụtachara ọlaedo niile o ji techie ibo na ibo ọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, chịrị ihe ndị a niile nye eze Asịrịa.
17 Forsothe the kyng of Assiriens sente Thercha and Rabsaces fro Lachis to kyng Ezechie, with strong hond to Jerusalem; and whanne thei hadden stied, thei camen to Jerusalem, and stoden bisidis the water cundijt of the hiyere cisterne, which is in the weie of the fullere, `ethir toukere.
Eze Asịrịa sitere na Lakish zipụ ọchịagha onye ọkwa ya kasị ukwuu, onyeisi ndị na-eje ozi na ọchịagha ya na usuu ndị agha ka ha jekwuru Hezekaya na Jerusalem. Ndị agha a bịaruru Jerusalem kwụsị nʼakụkụ olulu warawara e gwuru ebe Ọdọ mmiri dị elu si nʼasọfe, nʼụzọ e si aga obosara ala ndị na-asụ akwa.
18 And thei clepiden the kyng; sotheli Eliachym, sone of Elchie, the souereyn of the hows, and Sobna, scryueyn, and Joahe, chaunseler, the sone of Asaph, yeden out to hem.
Mgbe ha kpọrọ eze oku ka ọ bịa, Eliakịm nwa Hilkaya, onye nlekọta ụlọeze, na Shebna, ode akwụkwọ eze, na Joa nwa Asaf, onye ndekọ akụkọ ihe mere, pụrụ jekwuru ha.
19 And Rabsaces seide to hem, Speke ye to Ezechie, The grete kyng, the kyng of Assiriens, seith these thingis, What is this trist, in which thou enforsist?
Ọchịagha ahụ sịrị ha, “Gwanụ Hezekaya: “‘Otu a ka eze ukwu ahụ, bụ eze Asịrịa na-ekwu, Ọ bụ na gịnị ka ntụkwasị obi gị dabere?
20 In hap thou hast take counsel, that thou woldist make thee redi to batel. In whom tristist thou, that thou be hardi to rebelle?
Ị na-ekwu na i nwere ndụmọdụ na ike ibu agha, maọbụ naanị egbe ọnụ ka ị na-agba. Ọ bụ onye ka ị na-atụkwasị obi mere i ji enupu isi nʼokpuru m?
21 Whethir thou hopist in a `staf of rehed and brokun, Egipt, on which, if a man lenith, it schal be brokun, and schal entre in to hys hond, and schal peerse it? So is Farao, kyng of Egipt, to alle men that tristen on hym.
Lee, amatara m na ị na-atụkwasị obi nʼIjipt, mkpanaka achara ahụ gbajiri agbaji, nke na-adụwa aka onye ọbụla na-adabere na ya. Otu a ka Fero, eze Ijipt dị nye ndị niile na-atụkwasị ya obi.
22 That if thou seist to me, We han trist in `oure Lord God; whether this is not he, whos hiye thingis and auteris Ezechie took awei, and comaundide to Juda and to Jerusalem, Ye schulen worschipe bifor this auter in Jerusalem?
Ma ọ bụrụ na unu asị m, “Anyị na-atụkwasị Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke anyị obi.” Ọ bụghị ya ka Hezekaya wezugara ebe ya niile dị elu na ebe ịchụ aja ya niile, na-asị Juda na Jerusalem, “Unu aghaghị ịkpọ isiala nʼebe ịchụ aja dị nʼime Jerusalem?”
23 Now therfor passe ye to my lord, the kyng of Assiriens, and Y schal yyue to you twei thousynde of horsis, and se ye, whether ye moun haue rideris of `tho horsis?
“‘Ma ugbu a, bịa kwee nna m ukwu, bụ eze Asịrịa nkwa. Aga m enye gị puku ịnyịnya abụọ ma ọ bụrụ na i nwere ike ịchọta ndị ga-agba ha.
24 And hou moun ye withstonde bifor o prince of the leste seruauntis of my lord? Whether thou hast trist in Egipt, for charis and knyytis?

25 Whether Y stiede with outen `Goddis wille to this place, that Y schulde distrie it? `The Lord seide to me, `Stie thou to this lond, and distrie thou it.
Tinyere nke a, abịara m ibuso ala a agha na ibibi ya ma enweghị okwu sitere na Chineke bịa? Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị ya onwe ya gwara m ka m bilie megide obodo a, lakwaa ya nʼiyi.’”
26 Forsothe Eliachym, sone of Elchie, and Sobna, and Joahe, seiden to Rabsaces, We preien, that thou speke bi the langage of Sirie to vs, thi seruauntis; for we vndirstondun this langage; and that thou speke not to vs bi the langage of Juwis, while the puple herith, which is on the wal.
Mgbe ahụ, Eliakịm nwa Hilkaya, Shebna na Joa sịrị ọchịagha ahụ, “Biko, gwa ndị ohu gị okwu nʼasụsụ Aramaik, ebe ọ bụ na anyị na-aghọta ya. Agwala anyị okwu nʼasụsụ Hibru, ebe ndị nọ nʼelu mgbidi ga-anụ.”
27 And Rabsaces answeride, `and seide, Whethir my lord sente me to thi lord and to thee, that Y schulde speke these wordis, and not rather to the men `that sitten on the wal, that thei ete her toordis, and drynke her pisse with you?
Ma ọchịagha ahụ zaghachiri, “Ọ bụ nʼihi naanị nna unu ukwu na nye unu onwe unu ka nna m ukwu ji zite m, ka m kwuo ihe ndị a? Ọ bụghị nʼihi ndị mmadụ ahụ na-anọdụ nʼelu mgbidi, ndị, dịka unu, ha ga-eso rie nsị ha nyụrụ, ṅụọkwa mamịrị ha nyụrụ?”
28 Therfor Rabsaces stood, and criede with greet vois bi langage of Jewis, and seide, Here ye the wordis of the greet kyng, the kyng of Assiriens.
Mgbe ahụ, ọchịagha ahụ guzoro were oke olu kwuo nʼasụsụ Hibru, sị, “Nụrụnụ okwu eze ukwu ahụ, bụ eze Asịrịa.
29 The kyng seith these thingis, Ezechie disceyue not you, for he may not delyuere you fro myn hond;
Nke a bụ ihe eze sịrị, unu ekwela ka Hezekaya duhie unu. Ọ pụghị ịzọpụta unu site nʼaka m.
30 nether yyue he trist to you on the Lord, and seie, The Lord delyuerynge schal delyuere vs, and this citee shal not be bitakun in the hond of the kyng of Assiriens;
Unu ekwela ka Hezekaya mee ka unu tụkwasị Onyenwe anyị obi. Mgbe ọ na-asị, ‘Nʼezie, Onyenwe anyị aghaghị ịnapụta anyị, a gaghị enyefe obodo a nʼaka eze Asịrịa.’
31 nyle ye here Ezechie. For the kyng of Assiriens seith these thingis, Do ye with me that, that is profitable to you, and go ye out to me; and eche man schal ete of his vyner, and of his fige tree, and ye schulen drynke watris of youre cisternes,
“Unu aṅakwala Hezekaya ntị. Ihe a ka eze Asịrịa kwuru: Pụkwutenụ m, bịanụ ka mụ na unu mee udo. Mgbe ahụ, onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-eri mkpụrụ si nʼubi vaịnị ya na nke si nʼosisi fiig ya, ṅụọkwa mmiri nke si nʼihe icheta mmiri ya:
32 til Y come, and translate you in to a lond which is lijk youre lond, in to a fruytful lond, and plenteuouse of wyn, a lond of breed, and of vineris, a lond of olyue trees, and of oile, and of hony; and ye schulen lyue, and ye schulen not die. Nyle ye here Ezechie, that disseyueth you, and seith, The Lord schal delyuere yow.

33 Whether the goddis of hethene men delyueriden her lond fro the hond of the kyng of Assiriens?
O nwere chi mba ọbụla nke napụtara ha site nʼaka eze Asịrịa?
34 Where is god of Emath, and of Arphat? Where is god of Sapharuaym, of Ana, and of Aua? Whether thei delyueriden Samarie fro myn hond?
Olee ebe ka chi ndị Hamat na Apad nọ? Olee ebe ka chi ndị Sefavaim, Hena na Iva nọkwa? Ha anapụtala Sameria site nʼaka m?
35 For who ben thei in alle goddis of londis, that delyueriden her cuntrey fro myn hond, that the Lord may delyuere Jerusalem fro myn hoond?
Olee chi nʼime chi mba ndị a niile bụ nke zọpụtarala ala ya site nʼaka m? Unu si aṅaa chee na Onyenwe anyị pụrụ ịzọpụta Jerusalem site nʼaka m?”
36 Therfor the puple was stille, and answeride not ony thing to hym; for thei hadden take comaundement of the kyng, that thei schulden not answere to hym.
Ma ndị ahụ niile gbara nkịtị, ha ekwughị ihe ọbụla, nʼihi na eze nyere ha iwu sị, “Unu azaghachila ya.”
37 And Eliachym, sone of Elchie, the souereyn of the hows, and Sobna, scryuen, and Joahe, chaunceler, the sone of Asaph, camen with to-rent clothis to Ezechie; and telden to hym the wordis of Rabsaces.
Mgbe ahụ, Eliakịm nwa Hilkaya, onye na-elekọta ụlọeze, na Shebna ode akwụkwọ eze, na Joa nwa Asaf ode akwụkwọ, ha yi uwe ha dọwara adọwa, bịakwute Hezekaya gwa ya ihe niile onyeisi agha ahụ kwuru.
