Fiawo 2 19
1 Esi Fia Hezekia se nya siawo la, edze eƒe awuwo, ta akpanya eye wòyi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
Kwathi lapho uHezekhiya, inkosi, esezwe lokhu, wadabula izigqoko zakhe wagqoka amasaka, wasesiya ethempelini likaThixo.
2 Egblɔ na Eliakim, Sebna kple nunɔla tsitsitɔ aɖewo be woata akpanya eye woayi Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi gbɔ agblɔ nɛ be,
Wathuma u-Eliyakhimu umphathi wesigodlo, uShebhina umabhalane labaphristi abangabakhokheli, bonke begqoke amasaka, baya kumphrofethi u-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi.
3 “Fia Hezekia be, ‘Egbee nye xaxagbe, amedzugbe kple vlodoamegbe. Ele abe ale si nyɔnu aɖe anɔ ku lém gake ŋusẽ mele eŋu wòasii adzi o la ene.
Bathi kuye, “UHezekhiya uthi: ilanga lanamhla lusuku losizi lokusolwa kanye lehlazo njengalapho abantwana sekufike isikhathi sokuthi bazalwe kodwa amandla okubeletha engekho.
4 Ɖewohĩ, Yehowa, wò Mawu la se ale si Asiriatɔwo ƒe aʋafia la tsi tsitre ɖe Mawu gbagbe la ŋu eye wòaka mo nɛ. Oo, do gbe ɖa ɖe mí ame ʋɛ siwo susɔ la ta.’”
Mhlawumbe uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho izawezwa wonke amazwi omlawuli webutho, onkosi yakhe, inkosi yase-Asiriya, emthume ukuba athuke uNkulunkulu ophilayo, lokuthi uzamthuka ngenxa yamazwi uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho awazwileyo. Ngakho-ke khulekela insali elokhu iphila.”
5 Esi Fia Hezekia ƒe ame dɔdɔwo va Yesaya gbɔ la,
Kwathi izithunywa zenkosi uHezekhiya sezifikile ku-Isaya,
6 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.
u-Isaya wathi kuzo, “Tshelani inkosi yenu lithi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Ungesabi lokhu okuzwileyo, amazwi lawana izinceku zenkosi yase-Asiriya ezingithuke ngawo.
7 Miɖo 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.’”
Lalela! Ngizafaka umoya ozamenza athi nxa esizwa umbiko othile, afune ukubuyela elizweni lakhe, athi angafika khonale ngenze ukuba abulawe ngenkemba.’”
8 Esi aʋafia si le aʋakɔ siwo le gbea dzi dzi kpɔm la se bena, Asiria fia dzo le Lakis la, etrɔ dzo yi aƒe eye wòkpɔ fia la le aʋa wɔm kple Libna.
Kwathi lapho umlawuli webutho esezwile ukuthi inkosi yase-Asiriya yayisisukile eLakhishi, laye wasuka wayathola inkosi isilwa leLibhina.
9 Azɔ gbe va na Senakerib be, Tirhaka, Kus fia, si le Egipte ƒe dzigbeme lɔƒo la ho aʋa gbɔna edzi dze ge. Ke egadɔ amewo ɖo ɖe fia Hezekia gbɔ be woagblɔ nɛ be,
USenakheribhi wemukela umbiko othi uThirihaka, inkosi yaseKhushi, wayesiza ukuba amhlasele. Ngakho wathumela njalo izithunywa kuHezekhiya lombiko othi:
10 “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.’
“Tshela uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ukuthi: Ungavumi ukuthi unkulunkulu omthembileyo akukhohlise esithi, ‘IJerusalema kaliyikunikelwa enkosini yase-Asiriya.’
11 Ènya nu siwo Asiria fia wɔ le afi sia afi si wòyi la nyuie; wogblẽ nu sia nu. Nu ka ta tɔwò ato vovo tso bubuawo tɔ gbɔ?
Ngempela usukuzwile okwenziwa ngamakhosi ase-Asiriya emazweni wonke, ewabhidliza okupheleleyo. Wena-ke uzaphepha na?
12 Ɖe dukɔ bubuwo abe Gozan, Haran, Rezef kple Eden le Tel Asa ƒe anyigba ene ƒe mawuwo te ŋu ɖe woa? Asiria fia siwo do ŋgɔ nam la tsrɔ̃ wo katã!
Onkulunkulu bezizwe ezatshabalaliswa ngokhokho bami bake bazikhulula na onkulunkulu beGozani, leHarani, leRezefi kanye labantu base-Edeni ababeseThelasari?
13 Afi ka Hamat fia kple Arpad fia le? Nu kae wɔ Sefarvaim kple Hena kple Iva ƒe fiawo?”
Ingaphi inkosi yaseHamathi, inkosi yase-Ariphadi, angaphi amakhosi aseLayiri leSefavayimi, loba eyaseHena kumbe eyase-Iva?”
14 Fia Hezekia xɔ agbalẽ la le ame dɔdɔwo si, xlẽe eye wòyi gbedoxɔ me be yeatsɔe aɖo Yehowa ŋkume.
UHezekhiya wamukela incwadi eyeza lezithunywa wayibala. Emva kwalokho waya ethempelini leNkosi, wayichaya phambi kukaThixo.
15 Emegbe la, edo gbe ɖa na Yehowa be, “Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si nɔ kerubiwo dome, wò koe nye Mawu ɖe anyigbadzifiaɖuƒewo katã dzi. Wòe wɔ dziƒo kple anyigba.
UHezekhiya wakhuleka kuThixo esithi: “Thixo, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, osebukhosini phakathi kwamaKherubhi, wena kuphela nguwe onguNkulunkulu wemibuso yonke yasemhlabeni. Nguwe owenza izulu lomhlaba.
16 O! Yehowa, ƒu to anyi, eye nàse nu. Ʋu wò ŋkuwo, eye nàkpɔ nu. Se nya siwo Senakerib tsɔ do vlo Mawu gbagbe lae ɖa.
Beka indlebe, Thixo, uzwe; vula amehlo akho Thixo, ubone. Lalela uzwe amazwi uSenakheribhi awathumele ukuzathuka uNkulunkulu ophilayo.
17 “Yehowa, enye nyateƒe be Asiria fia ɖu dukɔ siawo katã dzi
Kuliqiniso, Thixo, ukuthi amakhosi ase-Asiriya azitshabalalisa lezizizwe kanye lamazwe azo.
18 eye wòtɔ dzo woƒe mawuwo elabena menye mawuwoe wonye o, ke boŋ ati kple kpee wonye. Amegbetɔ ƒe asinudɔwɔwɔwoe wonye.
Aphosele onkulunkulu bawo emlilweni abatshabalalisa, ngoba kungesibo onkulunkulu kodwa yizigodo lamatshe kuphela, okubunjwe ngezandla zabantu.
19 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.”
Khathesi, Thixo, Nkulunkulu wethu, sikhulule esandleni sakhe, ukuze imibuso yonke emhlabeni ibekwazi, ukuthi wena wedwa, Thixo, unguNkulunkulu.”
20 Tete Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi ɖo du ɖe Hezekia be, “Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: Mese wò gbedodoɖa tso Senakerib, Asiria fia, ŋuti.
U-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi wathumela ilizwi kuHezekhiya elithi: “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho mayelana loSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya.
21 Esiae nye Yehowa ƒe nya si wògblɔ ɖi ɖe eŋuti: “‘Zion vinyɔnu si menya ŋutsu o la, do vlo wò eye wòɖu fewu le ŋutiwò. Yerusalem vinyɔnu ʋuʋu ta esi nèlé du tsɔ.
Nanti ilizwi uThixo aselikhulume ngaye: ‘Ndodakazi eGcweleyo iZiyoni iyakweyisa njalo iyakuklolodela. Ndodakazi iJerusalema inqekuza ikhanda layo lapho wena ubaleka.
22 Ame kae nèdzu hegblɔ busunya ɖe eŋuti? Ame ka ŋutie nèkɔ wò gbe dzi ɖo eye nètro ŋku kpɔe dadatɔe? Ɖe Israel ƒe kɔkɔetɔ la ŋutie!
Ngubani lowo omthukileyo wamhlazisa? Ngubani lowo omphakamisele ilizwi lakho wamphakamisela lamehlo akho ngokuzigqaja na? NgoNgcwele ka-Israyeli!
23 Èdɔ wò dɔlawo be woali kɔ dzu ɖe Yehowa dzi. Ègblɔ be, “Metsɔ nye tasiaɖamwo lia towo tame eye mede keke Lebanon to kɔkɔwo tame. Melã sedati kɔkɔwo kple sesewuti nyuitɔwo ƒu anyi. Meɖo eƒe anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke kple eƒe ave nyuitɔwo tame.
Ngezithunywa zakho umthukile uThixo. Utshilo njalo ukuthi, “Ngezinqola zami ezinengi ngikhwelile eziqongweni zezintaba, iziqongo eziphezulu kakhulu zaseLebhanoni. Sengigamule ngawisa izihlahla ezinde zemisedari, izihlahla ezikhethiweyo zamaphayini. Ngifikile eziqongweni zalo ezikhatshana, emaguswini alo amahle kakhulu.
24 Meɖe vudo ɖe dzronyigba dzi heno tsi le afi ma. Metsɔ nye afɔƒome fanya Egipte ale gbegbe be eƒe tɔsisiwo katã mie.”
Ngigebhile imithombo ezizweni nganatha amanzi khona. Ngezinyawo zami ngomisile zonke izifula zaseGibhithe.”’”
25 “‘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.
“‘Kawuzwanga na? Lokhu ngakumisa endulo. Ngakuceba ensukwini zasendulo; khathesi sengenze ukuba kufezeke, ukuthi usudilize amadolobho avikelweyo aba yizinqwaba zamatshe.
26 Ŋusẽ vɔ le woƒe amewo ŋu eye vɔvɔ̃ kple ŋukpe lé wo. Ale wole abe gbe le gbedzi, gbe damawo kple gbe si mie ɖe xɔta eye ŋdɔ ɖui wòku hafi wòva tsi la ene.
Abantu bakhona, abangaselamandla, badangele njalo bayangekile. Banjengezilimo ensimini, njengamahlumela aluhlaza, lanjengotshani obuhluma ephahleni lwendlu bubuye butshe bungakakhuli.
27 “‘Ke menya afi si nèle, wò dodo kple gbɔgbɔ kple ale si nèdo dziku ɖe ŋutinye.
Kodwa ngiyakwazi lapho okhona, lalapho usiza uphinde uhambe; kanye lokuthi ungithukuthelela kangakanani.
28 Esi nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe ŋutinye, eye wò amemabumabu va ɖo nye to me ta la, matsɔ nye lãɖeƒu ade ŋɔti me na wò, made numega nu me na wò, eye mana mɔ si nèto va la nàgato eya ke dzi adzo.’
Ngenxa yokungithukuthelela kwakho langenxa yokuthi ubuqholo bakho sebufikile ezindlebeni zami ngizafaka umkhala wami emakhaleni akho lamatomu ami emlonyeni wakho, njalo ngizakwenza ubuyele ngendlela oze ngayo.’
29 “Esia anye dzesi na wò, Oo Hezekia: “Ƒe sia me la, miaɖu nuku siwo mie le wo ɖokui si, ne ƒe trɔ la, miagaɖu esiwo susɔ. Ke le ƒe etɔ̃lia me la, miaƒã nu, miaxa nu, miade waingble eye miaɖu eme kutsetsewo.
Lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kuwe, Hezekhiya: Lonyaka lizakudla okuzikhulela kodwa, ngomnyaka wesibili lidle umkhukhuzela wakhona. Kodwa ngomnyaka wesithathu hlanyelani livune, hlanyelani izivini lidle izithelo zazo.
30 Ava eme be ame siwo susɔ na Yuda ƒe aƒe la woato ke, eye woatse ku.
Futhi insali yendlu kaJuda izagxilisa njalo impande phansi ithele izithelo ngaphezulu.
31 Elabena ame aɖewo asusɔ tso Yerusalem nɔlawo dome eye ame siwo tsi agbe la ado tso Zion to la dzi. “Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ ƒe didi vevie ana esia nava eme.
Ngoba eJerusalema kuzavela insali, kuthi entabeni iZiyoni kuphume ixuku labasindayo. Ukutshiseka kukaThixo uSomandla kuzakwenza ukuba lokhu kufezeke.
32 “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 eƒe akpoxɔnu alo aƒu kpo ɖe du sia ŋuti o.
Ngakho-ke mayelana lenkosi yase-Asiriya uThixo uthi: ‘Kasoze angene kulelidolobho loba atshoke umtshoko lapha. Kasoze eze kulo elehawu kumbe akhe umduli wokulivimbezela.
33 Mɔ si wòto va la, eya ke dzie wòato adzo. Mage ɖe du sia me akpɔ gbeɖe o. Yehowae gblɔe.
Uzabuyela ngendlela eza ngayo, kasoze angene kulelidolobho, kutsho uThixo.
34 Maʋli du sia ta eye maɖe du sia le nye ŋutɔ nye ŋkɔ kple nye dɔla, David ta.’”
Idolobho leli ngizalivikela ngilihlenge, ngenxa yami langenxa kaDavida inceku yami.’”
35 Emegbe Yehowa ƒe dɔla yi ɖe Asiriatɔwo ƒe aʋasaɖa la me hewu ame akpe alafa ɖeka blaenyi-vɔ-atɔ̃. Esi amewo fɔ ŋdi la, kpɔ ɖa ame kukuwo sɔŋ koe wokpɔ.
Ngalobobusuku ingilosi kaThixo yasuka yayabulala abantu abalikhulu elilamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lanhlanu lezinkulungwane ezihonqweni zama-Asiriya. Kwathi lapho abantu bevuka ekuseni kwakhona bonke kwasekuyizidumbu kuphela!
36 Ale Asiria fia, Senakerib kaka asaɖa la eye wòho dzo. Etrɔ yi Ninive eye wònɔ afi ma.
Ngakho uSenakheribhi inkosi yama-Asiriya wasuka ezihonqweni wahamba. Wabuyela eNiniva wahlala khona.
37 Gbe ɖeka esi wònɔ gbe dom ɖa le eƒe mawu, Nisrɔk ƒe gbedoxɔ me la, Via ŋutsu eve, Adramelek kple Sarezer, wowui kple yi hesi yi Ararat eye via Esarhadon ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
Kwathi ngolunye usuku ekhonza ethempelini likaNisirokhi unkulunkulu wakhe, amadodana akhe u-Adrameleki loShareza ambulala ngenkemba asebalekela elizweni lase-Ararathi. U-Esarihadoni indodana yakhe yaba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
