< 2 Kings 20 >
1 In tho daies Ezechie was sijk `til to the deeth; and Isaie, the prophete, sone of Amos, cam to hym, and seide to hym, The Lord God seith these thingis, Comaunde to thin hows, for thou schalt die, and thou schalt not lyue.
那时,希西家病得要死。亚摩斯的儿子先知以赛亚去见他,对他说:“耶和华如此说:‘你当留遗命与你的家,因为你必死,不能活了。’”
2 Which Ezechie turnyde his face to the wal, and worschipide the Lord,
希西家就转脸朝墙,祷告耶和华说:
3 and seide, Y biseche, Lord, haue mynde, hou Y yede bifor thee in treuthe, and in a parfit herte, and Y dide that, that was plesaunt bifor thee. Therfor Ezechie wepte bi greet wepyng.
“耶和华啊,求你记念我在你面前怎样存完全的心,按诚实行事,又做你眼中所看为善的。”希西家就痛哭了。
4 And bifor that Ysaie yede out half the part of the court, the word of the Lord was maad to Isaie, and seide,
以赛亚出来,还没有到中院,耶和华的话就临到他,说:
5 Turne thou ayen, and seie to Ezechie, duyk of my puple, The Lord God of Dauid, thi fadir, seith thes thingis, Y herde thi preiere, and Y siy thi teer, and, lo! Y heelide thee. In the thridde dai thou schalt stie in to the temple of the Lord,
“你回去告诉我民的君希西家说:耶和华—你祖大卫的 神如此说:‘我听见了你的祷告,看见了你的眼泪,我必医治你;到第三日,你必上到耶和华的殿。
6 and Y schal adde fiftene yeer to thi daies; but also Y schal delyuere thee and this citee fro the hond of the kyng of Assiriens, and Y schal defende this citee for me, and for Dauid, my seruaunt.
我必加增你十五年的寿数,并且我要救你和这城脱离亚述王的手。我为自己和我仆人大卫的缘故,必保护这城。’”
7 And Ysaie seide, Brynge ye to me a gobet of figis. And whanne thei hadden brouyte it, and hadde putte on `his botche, he was heelid.
以赛亚说:“当取一块无花果饼来。”人就取了来,贴在疮上,王便痊愈了。
8 Forsothe Ezechie seide to Isaie, What schal be the signe, that the Lord schal heele me, and that in the thridde dai Y schal stie in to the temple of the Lord?
希西家问以赛亚说:“耶和华必医治我,到第三日,我能上耶和华的殿,有什么兆头呢?”
9 To whom Ysaie seide, This schal be `a signe of the Lord, that the Lord schal do the word which he spak; wolt thou, that the schadewe stie by ten lynes, ethir turne ayen bi so many degrees?
以赛亚说:“耶和华必成就他所说的。这是他给你的兆头:你要日影向前进十度呢?是要往后退十度呢?”
10 And Ezechie seide, It is esy that the schadewe encreesse bi ten lynes, nethir Y wole that this be doon, but that it turne ayen bacward bi ten degrees.
希西家回答说:“日影向前进十度容易,我要日影往后退十度。”
11 Therfor Ysaie, the prophete, clepide inwardli the Lord, and brouyte ayen bacward bi ten degrees the schadewe bi lynes, bi whiche it hadde go doun thanne in the orologie of Achaz.
先知以赛亚求告耶和华,耶和华就使亚哈斯的日晷向前进的日影,往后退了十度。
12 In that tyme Beradacbaladan, sone of Baladam, the kyng of Babiloyne, sente lettris and yiftis to Ezechie; for he hadde herd that Ezechie was sijk, and hadde couerid.
那时,巴比伦王巴拉但的儿子米罗达·巴拉但听见希西家病而痊愈,就送书信和礼物给他。
13 Forsothe Ezechie was glad in the comyng of hem, and he schewide to hem the hows of spyceries, and gold, and siluer, and dyuerse pymentis, also oynementis, and the hows of hise vessels, and alle thingis whiche he myyte haue in hise tresouris; `no word was, `which Ezechie schewide not to hem in his hows, and in al his power.
希西家听从使者的话,就把他宝库的金子、银子、香料、贵重的膏油,和他武库的一切军器,并他所有的财宝,都给他们看。他家中和他全国之内,希西家没有一样不给他们看的。
14 Sotheli Ysaie, the prophete, cam to the kyng Ezechie, and seide to hym, What seiden these men, ether fro whennus camen thei to the? To whom Ezechie seide, Thei camen to me fro a fer lond, fro Babiloyne.
于是先知以赛亚来见希西家王,问他说:“这些人说什么?他们从哪里来见你?”希西家说:“他们从远方的巴比伦来。”
15 And he answeride, What `sien thei in thin hows? Ezechie seide, Thei sien alle thingis, what euer thingis ben in myn hows; no thing is in my tresouris, which Y schewide not to hem.
以赛亚说:“他们在你家里看见了什么?”希西家说:“凡我家中所有的,他们都看见了;我财宝中没有一样不给他们看的。”
16 Therfor Isaie seide to Ezechie, Here thou the word of the Lord.
以赛亚对希西家说:“你要听耶和华的话,
17 Lo! dayes comen, and alle thingis that ben in thin hows, and `whiche thingis thi fadris maden til in to this dai, schulen be takun awey into Babiloyne; `not ony thing schal dwelle, seith the Lord.
日子必到,凡你家里所有的,并你列祖积蓄到如今的,都要被掳到巴比伦去,不留下一样。这是耶和华说的。
18 But also of thi sones, that schulen go out of thee, whiche thou schalt gendere, schulen be takun, and thei schulen be geldyngis in the paleis of the king of Babiloyne.
并且从你本身所生的众子,其中必有被掳去在巴比伦王宫里当太监的。”
19 Ezechie seide to Isaie, The word of the Lord, `which he spak, is good; ooneli pees and treuthe be in my daies.
希西家对以赛亚说:“你所说耶和华的话甚好!若在我的年日中有太平和稳固的景况,岂不是好吗?”
20 Forsothe the residue of wordis of Ezechie, and al his strengthe, and hou he made a cisterne, and a watir cundijt, and brouyte watris, `in to the citee, whether these ben not writun in the book of wordis of daies of the kyngis of Juda?
希西家其余的事和他的勇力,他怎样挖池、挖沟、引水入城,都写在犹大列王记上。
21 And Ezechie slepte with hise fadris, and Manasses, his sone, regnyde for hym.
希西家与他列祖同睡。他儿子玛拿西接续他作王。
