Isaia 38
1 Matukũ-inĩ macio Hezekia akĩrwara, hakuhĩ akue. Mũnabii Isaia mũrũ wa Amozu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Thondeka maũndũ ma mũciĩ waku, tondũ nĩũgũkua, ndũkũhona.”
About that time was Hezekiah sicke vnto the death, and the Prophet Isaiah sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and sayd vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Put thine house in an order, for thou shalt dye, and not liue.
2 Hezekia akĩhũgũra ũthiũ wake, akĩrora rũthingo-inĩ, na akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ,
Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
3 “Wee Jehova, ririkana ũrĩa ngoretwo ngĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya kwĩhokeka mbere yaku, na ngeheana na ngoro yakwa yothe, na ngeeka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ maku.” Nake Hezekia akĩrĩra mũno.
And saide, I beseeche thee, Lord, remember nowe howe I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfite heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.
4 Hĩndĩ ĩyo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Isaia, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
Then came the worde of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
5 “Cooka ũkeere Hezekia atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: Nĩnjiguĩte ihooya rĩaku na ngoona maithori maku; nĩngũkuongerera mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtano ya gũtũũra muoyo.
Goe, and say vnto Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord God of Dauid thy father, I haue heard thy prayer, and seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.
6 Nĩngũkũhonokia hamwe na itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩngũgitĩra itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene.
And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the King of Asshur, and this citie: for I will defende this citie.
7 “‘Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩmenyithia kĩrĩa Jehova egũkũhe atĩ Jehova nĩegwĩka ũndũ ũcio akwĩrĩire:
And this signe shalt thou haue of ye Lord, that ye Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken,
8 Nĩngatũma kĩĩruru kĩa riũa gĩcooke na thuutha makinya ikũmi marĩa gĩikũrũkĩte ngathĩ-inĩ ya Ahazu.’” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũtheri wa riũa ũgĩcooka na thuutha makinya ikũmi marĩa waikũrũkĩte.
Beholde, I will bring againe the shadowe of the degrees (whereby it is gone downe in the diall of Ahaz by the sunne) ten degrees backeward: so the sunne returned by tenne degrees, by the which degrees it was gone downe.
9 Maya nĩmo maandĩko ma Hezekia mũthamaki wa Juda marĩa aandĩkire thuutha wa kũrũara na kũhona:
The writing of Hezekiah King of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sickenesse.
10 Niĩ ndoigire atĩrĩ, “O rĩrĩa matukũ ma muoyo wakwa magaacĩra-rĩ, no rĩo ngũthiĩ ndonye ihingo-inĩ cia gĩkuũ, na ndunywo mĩaka yakwa ĩrĩa ĩtigarĩte?” (Sheol h7585)
I saide in the cutting off of my dayes, I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres. (Sheol h7585)
11 Ngĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndikona Jehova rĩngĩ, ndikona Jehova ndĩ bũrũri ũyũ wa arĩa matũũraga muoyo; gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ ngona mũndũ wa thĩ, kana ngorwo hamwe na arĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩ.
I said, I shall not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shall see man no more among the inhabitants of the world.
12 Nyũmba yakwa nĩĩtharĩĩtio, ĩkeherio kũrĩ niĩ, o ta ũrĩa hema ya mũrĩithi yambũragwo. Nĩngũnjĩte muoyo wakwa ta ũrĩ taama wa mũndũ ũrĩa ũtumaga na mĩtambo, na rĩu nĩkũndinia ekũndinia anjeherie mũtambo-inĩ ũcio wake; mũthenya na ũtukũ-rĩ, ũtuĩkĩte o wa kũũniina.
Mine habitation is departed, and is remoued from me, like a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut me off from the height: from day to night, thou wilt make an ende of me.
13 Ndetereire ngirĩrĩirie nginya gũgĩkĩa, na akiunanga mahĩndĩ makwa mothe o ta mũrũũthi. Mũthenya na ũtukũ-rĩ, wee ũtuĩkĩte o wa kũũniina.
I rekoned to the morning: but he brake all my bones, like a lion: from day to night wilt thou make an ende of me.
14 Ngĩkaya ta hũngũrũrũ kana mũrũaru, ngĩcaaya o ta ũrĩa ndutura ĩcaayaga. Maitho makwa makĩaga hinya nĩgũcũthĩrĩria igũrũ. Ndĩ mũthĩĩnĩku; Wee Mwathani ũka ũndeithie!”
Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourne as a doue: mine eies were lift vp on high: O Lord, it hath oppressed me, comfort me.
15 No ingĩkiuga atĩa? Nĩanjarĩirie, na nĩwe mwene wĩkĩte ũguo. Mĩaka yakwa yothe ndĩrĩthiiaga ndĩnyiihĩtie, tondũ wa ruo rũrũ rwa ngoro yakwa.
What shall I say? for he hath said it to me, and he hath done it: I shall walke weakely all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.
16 Mwathani, andũ matũũraga moonaga maũndũ ta maya; o naguo roho wakwa ũtũũraga muoyo wonaga maũndũ o ta macio. Wanjookeirie ũgima wa mwĩrĩ, na ũkĩreka ndũũre muoyo.
O Lord, to them that ouerliue them, and to all that are in them, the life of my spirite shalbe knowen, that thou causedst me to sleepe and hast giuen life to me.
17 Ti-itherũ ũhoro ũcio warĩ wa kũngʼuna, nĩkĩo ndaiguire ruo rũnene ũguo. Nĩ ũndũ wa wendo waku, nĩwagirĩrĩirie ndoonye irima rĩa mwanangĩko; mehia makwa mothe nĩũriganĩirwo nĩmo.
Beholde, for felicitie I had bitter griefe, but it was thy pleasure to deliuer my soule from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
18 Nĩgũkorwo mbĩrĩra ndĩngĩhota gũkũgooca, o nakĩo gĩkuũ gĩtingĩkũgooca; arĩa maharũrũkaga irima rĩu matingĩgĩa na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩa wĩhokeku waku. (Sheol h7585)
For the graue cannot confesse thee: death cannot praise thee: they that goe downe into the pit, cannot hope for thy trueth. (Sheol h7585)
19 Arĩa marĩ muoyo, o acio matũũraga muoyo-rĩ, nĩmakũgoocaga, ta ũrĩa ndĩreka ũmũthĩ; maithe ma ciana nĩo meraga ciana ũhoro wa wĩhokeku waku.
But the liuing, the liuing, he shall confesse thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall declare thy trueth.
20 Jehova nĩakahonokia, na nĩtũkaina tũrĩ na inanda cia mũgeeto matukũ mothe ma muoyo witũ, tũrĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my song, all the dayes of our life in the House of the Lord.
21 Isaia oigĩte atĩrĩ, “Thondekai ngũmba ya ngũyũ, mũmĩigĩrĩre ihũha-inĩ, na nĩekũhona.”
Then said Isaiah, Take a lumpe of drye figs and lay it vpon the boyle, and he shall recouer.
22 Hezekia oorĩtie atĩrĩ, “Kĩmenyithia gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩrĩkũ atĩ nĩngambata thiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova?”
Also Hezekiah had said, What is ye signe, that I shall goe vp into the House of the Lord?
