Isaia 39
1 Na rĩrĩ, ihinda rĩu Merodaki-Baladani mũrũ wa Baladani mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩatũmĩire Hezekia marũa na kĩheo, tondũ nĩaiguĩte ũhoro wa ndwari yake na kũhona gwake.
At that time, Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylon, sent letters and gifts to Hezekiah. For he had heard that he had fallen ill and had recovered.
2 Hezekia akĩamũkĩra andũ arĩa maatũmĩtwo na gĩkeno, na akĩmoonia indo ciothe iria aigĩte makũmbĩ make; akĩmoonia betha, na thahabu na mahuti marĩa manungi wega na maguta marĩa mega mũno, na indo ciake ciothe cia mbaara na indo ciothe iria ciarĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciake. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kana kĩarĩ ũthamaki-inĩ wake wothe Hezekia ataamoonirie.
And Hezekiah rejoiced over them, and he showed them the storehouses of his aromatic spices, and of the silver and gold, and of the perfumes and precious ointments, and all the repositories for his belongings, and all the things that were found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Isaia agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Hezekia, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ acio moiga atĩa, na mekuumĩte kũ?” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Moimĩte bũrũri wa kũraya; megũkĩte kuuma bũrũri wa Babuloni.”
Then Isaiah the prophet entered before king Hezekiah, and he said to him, “What did these men say, and from where did they come to you?” And Hezekiah said, “They came to me from a far away land, from Babylon.”
4 Nake mũnabii akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ moonire nyũmba-inĩ yaku ya ũthamaki.” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Moonire indo ciothe cia nyũmba yakwa ya ũthamaki. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩrĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciakwa itanamoonia.”
And he said, “What did they see in your house?” And Hezekiah said: “They have seen all the things that are in my house. There was nothing that I did not show them among my treasures.”
5 Nake Isaia akĩĩra Hezekia atĩrĩ, “Ta igua kiugo kĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe:
And Isaiah said to Hezekiah: “Hear the word of the Lord of hosts:
6 Ti-itherũ ihinda nĩrĩgakinya, rĩrĩa indo ciothe iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yaku ya ũthamaki, na iria ciothe maithe maku matũire maigĩte nginya ũmũthĩ, igaakuuo itwarwo Babuloni. Gũtirĩ o na kĩmwe gĩgaatigara. Ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and all that your fathers have stored up, even to this day, will be taken away to Babylon. There will be nothing left behind, says the Lord.
7 Na andũ amwe a rũciaro rwaku, o arĩa moimĩte mũthiimo waku, o arĩa wee ũgaaciara, nĩmagathaamio, na nĩmakaahakũrwo nĩguo matungatage nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
And your children, who will issue from you, whom you will produce, they will be taken away. And they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
8 Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa waria nĩ kĩega,” tondũ eeciiririe atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngũtũũra muoyo nĩgũgũkorwo kũrĩ na thayũ na ũgitĩri.”
And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the Lord which he has spoken is good.” And he said, “But let there be peace and truth in my days.”
