Isaiah 37
1 And it was don, whanne kyng Ezechie hadde herd, he to-rente hise clothis, and he was wlappid in a sak, and entride in to the hous of the Lord.
Esi fia Hezekia se nya siawo la, edze eƒe awuwo, eye wòta akpanya heyi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
2 And he sente Eliachym, that was on the hous, and Sobna, the scryuen, and the eldre men of prestis, hilid with sackis, to Isaie, the prophete, the sone of Amos.
Emegbe la, edɔ eƒe dɔnunɔla, Eliakim kple eƒe agbalẽŋlɔla Sebna kple nunɔla tsitsiwo dometɔ aɖewo, ame siwo katã hã ta akpanya, eye woyi ɖe Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi la gbɔ.
3 And thei seiden to hym, Ezechie seith these thingis, A dai of tribulacioun, and of angwisch, and of chastisyng, and of blasfemye is this dai; for children camen `til to childberyng, and vertu of childberyng is not.
Wogblɔ nɛ be, Ale fia Hezekia gblɔe nye esi: “Egbee nye xaxa, mokaka kple vlodogbe. Enye ɣeyiɣi sesẽ abe nyɔnu si vi ɖo atame na be wòadzi, gake ŋusẽ mele eŋu be woasii adzi o la ene.
4 Therfor reise thou preier for the relifs that ben foundun, if in ony maner thi Lord God here the wordis of Rapsaces, whom the king of Assiriens, his lord, sente, for to blasfeme lyuynge God, and to dispise bi the wordis, whiche thi Lord God herde.
Ɖewohĩ Yehowa, wò Mawu la ase nya siwo aʋafia, si eƒe aƒetɔ Asiria fia dɔ la gblɔ. Ame si wòdɔ be woaɖe alɔme le Mawu gbagbe la ŋu, eye wòaka mo nɛ ɖe nya siwo Yehowa, wò Mawu la se ta. Eya ta do gbe ɖa ɖe ame mamlɛ siwo tsi agbe la ta.”
5 And the seruauntis of kyng Esechie camen to Isaie;
Esi fia Hezekia ƒe ame dɔdɔwo va Yesaya gbɔ la,
6 and Isaie seide to hem, Ye schulen seie these thingis to youre lord, The Lord seith these thingis, Drede thou not of the face of wordis whiche thou herdist, bi whiche the children of the kyng of Assiriens blasfemyden me.
Yesaya gblɔ na wo be, “Migblɔ na miaƒe aƒetɔ be, ‘Nu si Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: migavɔ̃ nu si miese, busunya siwo Asiria fia teviwo gblɔ ɖe ŋutinye la o.
7 Lo! Y schal yyue to hym a spirit, and he schal here a messanger; and he schal turne ayen to his londe, and Y schal make hym to falle doun bi swerd in his lond.
Ɖo to afii: mele gbɔgbɔ aɖe de ge eme, ale be ne nutsotso aɖewo va ɖo egbɔ la, atrɔ ayi ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba dzi, eye le afi ma, mana wòatsi yi nu.’”
8 Forsothe Rapsaces turnede ayen, and foond the kyng of Assiriens fiytynge ayens Lobna; for he hadde herd, that the kyng was gon fro Lachis.
Esi aʋafia la se be Asiria fia dzo le Lakis la, eya hã ho dzo, eye wòke ɖe fia la ŋu wònɔ aʋa wɔm kple Libna.
9 And the kyng herde messangeris seiynge of Theracha, kyng of Ethiopiens, He is gon out to fiyte ayens thee. And whanne he hadde herd this thing, he sente messangeris to Ezechie, and seide, Ye schulen seie,
Azɔ gbe va na Senakerib be, Tirhaka, Kus fia, si le Egipte ƒe dzigbeme lɔƒo la ho aʋa gbɔna edzi dze ge. Esi wòse nya sia la, edɔ amewo ɖo ɖe fia Hezekia gbɔ be woagblɔ nɛ be,
10 spekynge these thingis to Ezechye, kyng of Juda, Thi God disseyue not thee, in whom thou tristist, and seist, Jerusalem schal not be youun in to the hond of the kyng of Assiriens.
“Migblɔ na Hezekia, Yuda fia be, ‘Mègana mawu si ŋu nèle ŋu ɖom ɖo la nable wò o,’ esi wògblɔ be, ‘Womatsɔ Yerusalem ade asi na Asiria fia o.’
11 Lo! thou herdist alle thingis whiche the kynges of Assiriens diden to alle londis whiche thei distrieden; and maist thou be delyuered?
Meka ɖe edzi be, èse nu siwo Asiria fiawo tu kple dukɔwo katã, eye wotsrɔ̃ wo gbidigbidi. Ke woaɖe wò ya?
12 Whethir the goddis of folkis delyuereden hem, whiche my fadris distrieden; Gosan, and Aran, and Reseph, and the sones of Eden, that weren in Thalasar?
Ɖe dukɔ siwo mía fofowo tsrɔ̃ va yi la ƒe mawuwo te ŋu ɖe woa? Ɖe Gozan, Haran, Rezef kple Edentɔ siwo le Tel Asar la ƒe mawuwo ɖe woa?
13 Where is the kyng of Emath, and the kyng of Arphath, and the kyng of the citee of Sepharuaym, and of Ana, and of Aua?
Afi ka Hamat fia le, afi ka Arpad fia le, afi ka Sefarvaim dua ƒe fia le, eye afi ka Hena kple Iva ƒe fiawo le?”
14 And Ezechie took the bookis fro the hond of messangeris, and redde tho; and he stiede in to the hous of the Lord, and spredde abrood tho bifore the Lord;
Hezekia xɔ agbalẽ la le ame dɔdɔawo si hexlẽe. Etso heyi ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me, eye wòkeke agbalẽ la ɖe Yehowa ŋkume.
15 and preiede to the Lord,
Emegbe la, edo gbe ɖa na Yehowa be:
16 and seide, Lord of oostis, God of Israel, that sittist on cherubyn, thou art God aloone of alle the rewmes of erthe; thou madist heuene and erthe.
“O! Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si nɔ kerubiwo dome, wò koe nye Mawu ɖe anyigbadzifiaɖuƒewo katã dzi. Wòe wɔ dziƒo kple anyigba.
17 Lord, bowe doun thin eere, and here; Lord, open thin iyen, and se; and here thou alle the wordis of Sennacherib, whiche he sente for to blasfeme lyuynge God.
O! Yehowa, ƒu to anyi, eye nàse nu. Ʋu wò ŋkuwo, eye nàkpɔ nu. Se nya siwo katã Senakerib tsɔ do vlo Mawu gbagbe lae ɖa.
18 For verili, Lord, the kyngis of Assiriens maden londis dissert, and the cuntreis of tho, and yauen the goddis of tho to fier;
“O! Yehowa, enye nyateƒe be Asiria fiawo na be ame siawo kple woƒe anyigbawo zu gbegbe.
19 for thei weren not goddis, but the werkis of mennus hondis, trees and stoonys; and thei al to-braken tho goddis.
Wotsɔ woƒe mawuwo ƒu gbe ɖe dzo me hetsrɔ̃ wo, elabena menye mawuwo wonye o, ke boŋ ati kple kpe wonye, amegbetɔ ƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwoe.
20 And now, oure Lord God, saue thou vs fro the hond of hym; and alle rewmes of erthe knowe, that thou art Lord God aloone.
Ke azɔ, O! Yehowa, mía Mawu, ɖe mí tso eƒe asi me be fiaɖuƒe siwo katã le anyigba dzi la nanya be wò koe nye Yehowa.”
21 And Isaie, the sone of Amos, sente to Ezechie, and seide, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, For whiche thingis thou preidist me of Sennacherib, the kyng of Assiriens,
Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi, ɖo gbedeasi sia ɖe Hezekia be, “Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi, ‘Esi nèdo gbe ɖa nam tso Senakerib, Asiria fia ŋuti ta la,
22 this is the word which the Lord spak on hym, Thou virgyn, the douyter of Sion, he dispiside thee, he scornede thee; thou virgyn, the douyter of Jerusalem, he moued his heed aftir thee.
esia nye nya si Yehowa gblɔ ɖe eŋuti.’ “Zion vinyɔnu si menya ŋutsu o la gbe nu le gbɔwò, eye wòɖu fewu le ŋuwò. Yerusalem vinyɔnu ɖo hehe ɖe tawò esi nèlé du tsɔ.
23 Whom despisist thou, and whom blasfemedist thou? and on whom reisidist thou thi vois, and reisidist the hiynesse of thin iyen?
Ame ka nèdzu hegblɔ busunyawo ɖe eŋuti? Ame ka ta nèle ɣli dom ɖo, eye ame ka nètre ŋku kpɔe dadatɔe? Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la ŋutie!
24 To the hooli of Israel. Bi the hond of thi seruauntis thou dispisidist the Lord, and seidist, In the multitude of my cartis Y stiede on the hiynesses of hillis, on the yockis of Liban; and Y schal kitte doun the hiy thingis of cedris therof, and the chosun beechis therof; and Y schal entre in to the hiynesse of the cop therof, in to the forest of Carmele therof.

25 Y diggide, and drank watir; and Y made drie with the step of my foot all the strondis of feeldis.
Meɖe vudo ɖe dzronyigbawo dzi, eye meno wo me tsi le afi ma. Mena Egipte tɔʋuwo mie le nye afɔ te.’
26 Whether thou, Sennacherib, herdist not what thingis Y dide sum tyme? Fro elde daies Y fourmyde that thing, and now Y haue brouyt; and it is maad in to drawyng vp bi the roote of litle hillis fiytynge togidere, and of strong citees.
“Mèsee do ŋgɔ oa? Megblɔ nu sia da ɖi tso blema ke. Mewɔ ɖoɖo ɖe eŋu tso gbe aɖe gbe ʋĩi; ke azɔ la, mena wòva eme be, du siwo ŋu woɖo gli sesẽwo ɖo la zu anyiglago.

28 Y knew thi dwellyng, and thi goyng out, and thin entryng, and thi woodnesse ayens me.
“Ke menya afi si nèle. Menya ɣeyiɣi si nèdona gagbɔna, eye menya ale si nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe ŋunye.
29 Whanne thou were wood ayens me, thi pride stiede in to myn eeris; therfor Y schal sette a ryng in thi nosethirlis, and a bridil in thi lippis; and Y schal lede thee ayen in to the weie, bi which thou camest.

30 Forsothe to thee, Ezechie, this schal be a signe; ete thou in this yeer tho thingis that growen bi her fre wille, and in the secunde yeer ete thou applis; but in the thridde yeer sowe ye, and repe ye, and plaunte ye vyneris, and ete ye the fruyt of tho.
“O! Hezekia, esia anye dzesi na wò: “Ƒe sia me la, àɖu nuku si mie le eya ŋutɔ ɖokui si, eye le ƒe evelia me la, àɖu nu si mie tso gbãtɔ me. Ke le ƒe etɔ̃lia me la, àƒã nu, eye àxa nu. Àde waingble eye àɖu eƒe tsetsea
31 And that that is sauyd of the hous of Juda, and that, that is left, schal sende roote bynethe, and schal make fruyt aboue;
Ava eme be ame siwo susɔ na Yuda ƒe aƒe la woato ke, eye woatse ku,
32 for whi relifs schulen go out of Jerusalem, and saluacioun fro the hil of Sion; the feruent loue of the Lord of oostis schal do this thing.

33 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis of the kyng of Assiriens, He schal not entre in to this citee, and he schal not schete there an arowe; and a scheeld schal not ocupie it, and he schal not sende erthe in the cumpas therof.
“Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔ ɖe Asiria fia ŋue nye esi, “Mage ɖe du sia me alo ada aŋutrɔ ɖeka pɛ le afi sia o. Mava afi sia kple akpoxɔnu alo aƒu kpo ɖe du sia ŋuti o.

35 And Y schal defende this citee, that Y saue it, for me, and for Dauid, my seruaunt.
“Maʋli du sia ta aɖee le nye ŋutɔ kple David, nye dɔla ta!”
36 Forsothe the aungel of the Lord yede out, and killide an hundride thousynde and fourscoor and fyue thousynde in the tentis of Assiriens; and thei risen eerli, and lo! alle men weren careyns of deed men.

37 And Sennacherib yede out of Jude, and wente awei. And Sennacherib, the kyng of Assiriens, turnede ayen, and dwellide in Nynyue.

38 And it was don, whanne he worschipide Mesrach, his god, in the temple, Aramalech and Sarasar, hise sones, killiden hym with swerd, and fledden in to the lond of Ararath; and Asaradon, his sone, regnyde for hym.
