2 Chronicles 32

1 After these things and this truth, come hath Sennacherib king of Asshur, yea, he cometh in to Judah, and encampeth against the cities of the bulwarks, and saith to rend them unto himself.

Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, mo hono fakatuʻumaʻu ʻo ia, naʻe haʻu ʻa Senakalipe ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, pea hoko ki Siuta, pea naʻe fakanofo ʻene tau ki he ngaahi kolotau, pea mahalo ʻe ia te ne maʻu ʻakinautolu maʻana.

2 And Hezekiah seeth that Sennacherib hath come, and his face [is] to the battle against Jerusalem,

Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Hesekaia kuo haʻu ʻa Senakalipe, pea kuo loto ia ke tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema,

3 and he taketh counsel with his heads and his mighty ones, to stop the waters of the fountains that [are] at the outside of the city — and they help him,

Naʻe fakakaukau ai ia mo hono houʻeiki mo ʻene kau tangata mālohi ke punusia ʻae vai ʻoe ngaahi matavai ʻaia naʻe ʻituʻa ʻi he kolo: pea naʻa nau tokoni kiate ia.

4 and much people are gathered, and they stop all the fountains and the brook that is rushing into the midst of the land, saying, 'Why do the kings of Asshur come, and have found much water?'

Ko ia naʻe fakakātoa ai ʻae kakai tokolahi, ʻonau punusia ʻae ngaahi matavai kotoa pē, mo e vaitafe ʻaia naʻe tafe ʻi loto fonua, ʻonau pehē, Koeʻumaʻā ʻae haʻu ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ʻonau maʻu ʻae vai lahi?

5 And he strengtheneth himself, and buildeth the whole of the wall that is broken, and causeth [it] to ascend unto the towers, and at the outside of the wall another, and strengtheneth Millo, [in] the city of David, and maketh darts in abundance, and shields.

Pea naʻa ne fakamālohi ia, pea naʻa ne langa ʻae ʻā maka kotoa pē naʻe holoki hifo, pea fokotuʻu hake ʻae ngaahi fale māʻolunga, mo e ʻā maka ʻe taha ʻi tuaʻā, ʻo ne teuteuʻi ʻa Milo ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita, pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi tao mo e ngaahi pā ke lahi ʻaupito.

6 And he putteth heads of war over the people, and gathereth them unto him, unto the broad place of a gate of the city, and speaketh unto their heart, saying,

Pea naʻa ne fakanofo ʻae kau ʻeikitau ki he kakai, ʻo ne tānaki ʻo fakataha ʻakinautolu kiate ia ʻi he hala ʻoe matapā ʻoe kolo, ʻo ne lea lelei kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē,

7 'Be strong and courageous, be not afraid, nor be cast down from the face of the king of Asshur, and from the face of all the multitude that [is] with him, for with us [are] more than with him.

Ke mou mālohi mo lototoʻa, “ʻOua naʻa manavahē pe puputuʻu koeʻuhi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, pe ki he fuʻu tokolahi kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate ia: he ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻae tokolahi hake ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻiate ia:

8 With him [is] an arm of flesh, and with us [is] Jehovah our God, to help us, and to fight our battles;' and the people are supported by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

‌ʻOku ʻiate ia ʻae nima fakakakano ka ʻoku ʻiate kitautolu ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua ke tokoni ʻakitautolu, pea ke fai ʻetau ngaahi tau.” Pea naʻe fiemālie ʻae kakai ʻi he ngaahi lea ʻa Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta.

9 After this hath Sennacherib king of Asshur sent his servants to Jerusalem — and he [is] by Lachish, and all his power with him — against Hezekiah king of Judah, and against all Judah, who [are] in Jerusalem, saying,

Hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe fekau ʻe Senakalipe ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ki Selūsalema (ka naʻe nofo pe ia ʻo tauʻi ʻa Lakisi mo ʻene mālohi kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia) kia Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ki he kakai Siuta kotoa pē naʻe ʻi Selūsalema, ʻo pehē,

10 'Thus said Sennacherib king of Asshur, On what are ye trusting and abiding in the bulwark, in Jerusalem?

“ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Senakalipe ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, Ko e hā ia ʻoku mou faʻaki ki ai, ʻoku mou tali ai ʻi he kolotau ʻo Selūsalema?

11 'Is not Hezekiah persuading you, to give you up to die by famine, and by thirst, saying, Jehovah our God doth deliver us from the hand of the king of Asshur?

‌ʻIkai kuo fakahehemaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe Hesekaia ke tukuange ʻakimoutolu ke mou mate ʻi he fiekaia mo e fieinu, ʻo pehē, Ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua te ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu mei he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia?

12 Hath not Hezekiah himself turned aside His high places, and His altars, and speaketh to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, Before one altar ye bow yourselves, and on it ye make perfume?

‌ʻIkai kuo holoki hifo ʻe he Hesekaia ko ia, hono ngaahi potu māʻolunga mo ʻene ngaahi feilaulauʻanga, pea ne fekau ki Siuta mo Selūsalema, ʻo pehē, Te mou hū ʻi he muʻa feilaulauʻanga pe taha, pea tutu ki ai ʻae meʻa namu kakala.

13 'Do ye not know what I have done — I and my fathers — to all peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?

‌ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻaia kuo u fai ʻeau pea mo ia naʻe fai ʻe heʻeku ngaahi tamai ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi fonua kehe? he naʻe mafai fakasiʻisiʻi ʻe he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoe ngaahi fonua ko ia ke fakamoʻui honau ngaahi fonua mei hoku nima?

14 Who among all the gods of these nations whom my fathers have devoted to destruction [is] he who hath been able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God is able to deliver you out of my hand?

Ko hai ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ko ia naʻe fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻe heʻeku ngaahi tamai, naʻe mafai ʻe ia ke fakamoʻui hono kakai mei hoku nima, koeʻuhi ke pehē ʻe mafai ʻe homou ʻOtua ke fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei hoku nima?

15 'And, now, let not Hezekiah lift you up, nor persuade you thus, nor give credence to him, for no god of any nation and kingdom is able to deliver his people from my hand, and from the hand of my fathers: also, surely your God doth not deliver you from my hand!'

Pea ko eni ʻoua naʻa mou tuku ʻa Hesekaia ke ne kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu, pe ke fakalotoʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻo pehē ni, pea ʻoua foki naʻa mou tui kiate ia: he naʻe ʻikai ha ʻotua ʻo ha kakai pe ha puleʻanga naʻe mafai ke fakamoʻui hono kakai mei hoku nima, pea mei he nima ʻo ʻeku ngaahi tamai: kae muʻa hake eni ʻae taʻemafai ʻo homou ʻOtua ke fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei hoku nima?”

16 And again have his servants spoken against Jehovah God, and against Hezekiah His servant,

Pea naʻe lea kovi lahi hake ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua, pea ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Hesekaia.

17 and letters he hath written to give reproach to Jehovah, God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, 'As the gods of the nations of the lands that have not delivered their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah doth not deliver His people from my hand.'

Pea naʻe tohi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi tohi ke kape kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ke talakoviʻi ia, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe ʻikai faʻa fai ʻe he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai ʻoe ngaahi fonua ke fakamoʻui honau kakai mei hoku nima, pea ʻe pehē, ʻe ʻikai mafai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo Hesekaia ke fakamoʻui hono kakai mei hoku nima.”

18 And they call with a great voice [in] Jewish, against the people of Jerusalem who [are] on the wall, to frighten them, and to trouble them, that they may capture the city,

Pea naʻa nau toki kalanga ʻi he leʻo lahi ʻi he lea fakaSiu ki he kakai ʻo Selūsalema naʻe ʻi he funga ʻā, ke fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu, pea ke fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu: koeʻuhi ke nau lavaʻi ʻae kolo.

19 and they speak against the God of Jerusalem as against the gods of the peoples of the land — work of the hands of man.

Pea naʻa nau lea kovi ki he ʻOtua ʻo Selūsalema, ʻo hangē ko ʻenau lau ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kakai ʻo māmani, ʻaia ʻoku ngaohi ʻe he nima ʻoe tangata.

20 And Hezekiah the king prayeth, and Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, concerning this, and they cry to the heavens,

Pea ko e meʻa ko ia naʻe lotu ai mo tangi ki langi ʻa Hesekaia ko e tuʻi mo e palōfita ko ʻIsaia ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi.

21 and Jehovah sendeth a messenger, and cutteth off every mighty one of valour — both leader and head — in the camp of the king of Asshur, and he turneth back with shame of face to his land, and entereth the house of his god, and those coming out of his bowels have caused him to fall there by the sword.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻāngelo, ʻaia naʻa ne taaʻi ʻae kau tangata toʻa mālohi kotoa pē, mo e kau taki tau mo e houʻeiki pule ʻi he ʻapitanga ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia. Ko ia naʻe toe ʻalu ai ia ʻo mata mā ki hono fonua. Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki he fale ʻo hono ʻotua naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻae heletā, ʻekinautolu naʻe tupu mei hono fatu ʻoʻona.

22 And Jehovah saveth Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Asshur, and from the hand of all, and He leadeth them round about;

Naʻe pehē pe hono fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻa Hesekaia mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema mei he nima ʻo Senakalipe ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, pea mei he nima ʻoe [kakai ]kotoa pē, pea naʻa ne fakahinohinoʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he potu kotoa pē.

23 and many are bringing in an offering to Jehovah, to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah, and he is lifted up before the eyes of all the nations after this.

Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he tokolahi ʻae ngaahi meʻa foaki kia Sihova ki Selūsalema, mo e ngaahi meʻaʻofa kia Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta: pea talu mei ai naʻe fakahikihiki ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.

24 In those days hath Hezekiah been sick even unto death, and he prayeth unto Jehovah, and He speaketh to him, and a wonder hath appointed for him;

Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe mahaki ʻa Hesekaia ʻo teitei mate: pea naʻe lotu ia kia Sihova: pea naʻe folofola ia ki ai, pea naʻe tuku kiate ia ʻae fakaʻilonga.

25 and Hezekiah hath not returned according to the deed [done] unto him, for his heart hath been lofty, and there is wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem;

Ka naʻe ʻikai ke fai ʻe Hesekaia ʻo fakatatau ki he lelei naʻe fai kiate ia: he naʻe fakahikihiki hono loto: ko ia naʻe ʻai ʻae houhau kiate ia, pea ki Siuta mo Selūsalema.

26 and Hezekiah is humbled for the loftiness of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the wrath of Jehovah hath not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.

Ka naʻe fakavaivai ia ʻe Hesekaia koeʻuhi ko e fielahi ʻo hono loto, ko ia mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, ko ia naʻe ʻikai tō ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Hesekaia.

27 And Hezekiah hath riches and honour very much, and treasures he hath made to himself of silver, and of gold, and of precious stone, and of spices, and of shields, and of all [kinds] of desirable vessels,

Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Hesekaia ʻae koloa lahi ʻaupito mo e ongoongolelei lahi: pea naʻa ne ngaohi moʻona ʻae ngaahi fale faʻoʻanga siliva, pea ki he koula, mo e ngaahi maka koloa mahuʻinga, pea ki he ngaahi meʻa nanamu, pea ki he ngaahi pā, pea ki he ngaahi meʻa teunga lelei kehekehe kotoa pē:

28 and storehouses for the increase of corn, and new wine, and oil, and stalls for all kinds of cattle, and herds for stalls;

Mo e ngaahi feleoko foki ki hono tupu ʻoe uite, mo e uaine, mo e lolo: mo e ngaahi tuʻuʻanga ki he fanga manu kehekehe kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi lotoʻā ki he ngaahi fanga manu siʻi.

29 and cities he hath made for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance, for God hath given to him very much substance.

Pea naʻa ne ngaohi maʻana ʻae ngaahi kolo, mo e ngaahi fanga manu siʻi, mo e ngaahi fanga manu lahi: he naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi.

30 And Hezekiah himself hath stopped the upper source of the waters of Gihon, and directeth them beneath to the west of the city of David, and Hezekiah prospereth in all his work;

Ko e Hesekaia ni foki naʻa ne tāpuni ʻae tafeʻanga vai ʻi ʻolunga ʻi Kihoni, ʻo ne ʻomi totonu ia ʻi he potu lulunga ʻoe Kolo ʻo Tevita. Pea naʻe monūʻia ʻa Hesekaia ʻi heʻene ngāue kotoa pē.

31 and so with the ambassadors of the heads of Babylon, those sending unto him to inquire of the wonder that hath been in the land, God hath left him to try him, to know all in his heart,

Ka ko e meʻa ʻi he ngāue ʻae kau tangata fekau mei he houʻeiki ʻo Papilone, ʻaia naʻa nau fekau kiate ia ke fehuʻi kiate ia ʻi he meʻa mana naʻe fai ʻi he fonua, naʻe fakatukutukuʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ia, koeʻuhi ke ne ʻilo ai ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe ʻi hono loto.

32 And the rest of the matters of Hezekiah, and his kind acts, lo, they are written in the vision of Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet, on the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngāue ʻa Hesekaia, mo ʻene angalelei, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he [tohi ]kikite ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi, pea ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta mo ʻIsileli.

33 And Hezekiah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the uppermost of the graves of the sons of David, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem have done honour to him at his death, and reign doth Manasseh his son in his stead.

Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Hesekaia mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea nau tanu ia ʻi he fungani fonualoto ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Tevita: pea naʻe fai fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia ʻa Siuta kotoa pē mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema ʻi heʻene pekia. Pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Manase.
