1 καὶ μετὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν ταύτην ἦλθεν Σενναχηριμ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπὶ Ιουδαν καὶ παρενέβαλεν ἐπὶ τὰς πόλεις τὰς τειχήρεις καὶ εἶπεν προκαταλαβέσθαι αὐτάς

UHezekhiya uthe ebona ukuthi uSenakheribhi usefikile njalo uhlose ukuhlasela iJerusalema,
3 καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο μετὰ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν δυνατῶν ἐμφράξαι τὰ ὕδατα τῶν πηγῶν ἃ ἦν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως καὶ συνεπίσχυσαν αὐτῷ
wabuza izikhulu zakhe kanye labebutho ukuthi kwakungaba njani ukuthi kuvalwe amanzi avela emithonjeni engaphandle kwedolobho, bahle bamncedisa.
4 καὶ συνήγαγεν λαὸν πολὺν καὶ ἐνέφραξεν τὰ ὕδατα τῶν πηγῶν καὶ τὸν ποταμὸν τὸν διορίζοντα διὰ τῆς πόλεως λέγων μὴ ἔλθῃ βασιλεὺς Ασσουρ καὶ εὕρῃ ὕδωρ πολὺ καὶ κατισχύσῃ
Ixuku elikhulu lamadoda labuthana, lakanye bawavala amanzi awemthonjeni lawesifula esasidabula phakathi kwelizwe. Bathi, “Kungani amakhosi ase-Asiriya afanele afice amanzi amanengi na?”
5 καὶ κατίσχυσεν Εζεκιας καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν πᾶν τὸ τεῖχος τὸ κατεσκαμμένον καὶ πύργους καὶ ἔξω προτείχισμα ἄλλο καὶ κατίσχυσεν τὸ ἀνάλημμα πόλεως Δαυιδ καὶ κατεσκεύασεν ὅπλα πολλά
Ngakho wasebenza ngamandla evuselela umduli lokwakha imiphotshongo phezu kwawo. Wakha omunye umduli ngaphandle kwalowo waseqinisa imithangala eyayivele ingeyoMuzi kaDavida. Wenza lezikhali lezihlangu ezinengi kakhulu.
6 καὶ ἔθετο ἄρχοντας τοῦ πολέμου ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν καὶ συνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν πλατεῖαν τῆς πύλης τῆς φάραγγος καὶ ἐλάλησεν ἐπὶ καρδίαν αὐτῶν λέγων
Wabeka izikhulu zebutho zaphatha abantu wasezimisa phambi kwakhe egcekeni lesango elingasedolobheni wazikhuthaza ngalamazwi:
7 ἰσχύσατε καὶ ἀνδρίζεσθε μὴ πτοηθῆτε ἀπὸ προσώπου βασιλέως Ασσουρ καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου παντὸς τοῦ ἔθνους τοῦ μετ’ αὐτοῦ ὅτι μεθ’ ἡμῶν πλείονες ἢ μετ’ αὐτοῦ
“Qinani libe lesibindi. Lingesabi njalo lingethuselwa libutho elikhulu kangaka lenkosi yase-Asiriya ngoba kulamandla amakhulu akithi adlula akuye.
8 μετ’ αὐτοῦ βραχίονες σάρκινοι μεθ’ ἡμῶν δὲ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν τοῦ σῴζειν καὶ τοῦ πολεμεῖν τὸν πόλεμον ἡμῶν καὶ κατεθάρσησεν ὁ λαὸς ἐπὶ τοῖς λόγοις Εζεκιου βασιλέως Ιουδα
Yena ulengalo yenyama kuphela, kodwa thina siloThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ukusisiza lokusilwela izimpi zethu.” Abantu baba lesibindi ngenxa yalokho okwatshiwo yinkosi yakoJuda uHezekhiya.
9 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀπέστειλεν Σενναχηριμ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπὶ Λαχις καὶ πᾶσα ἡ στρατιὰ μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς Εζεκιαν βασιλέα Ιουδα καὶ πρὸς πάντα Ιουδαν τὸν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ λέγων
Muva, uSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya lawo wonke amabutho akhe esavimbezele eLakhishi, wathuma izikhulu zakhe eJerusalema ziphethe lelilizwi elalisiya kuHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda kanye labantu bonke abakoJuda abebekhona lapho wathi:
10 οὕτως λέγει Σενναχηριμ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀσσυρίων ἐπὶ τίνι ὑμεῖς πεποίθατε καὶ κάθησθε ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ ἐν Ιερουσαλημ
“Nanku okutshiwo nguSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya uthi: Usithatha ngaphi wena isibindi, esokuthi wale ulokhu useJerusalema yona ivinjezelwe?
11 οὐχὶ Εζεκιας ἀπατᾷ ὑμᾶς τοῦ παραδοῦναι ὑμᾶς εἰς θάνατον καὶ εἰς λιμὸν καὶ εἰς δίψαν λέγων κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν σώσει ἡμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς βασιλέως Ασσουρ
Nxa uHezekhiya esithi, ‘UThixo uNkulunkulu wethu uzasisindisa ezandleni zenkosi yase-Asiriya,’ uyalikhohlisa, ukuba life ngendlala langomhawu wamanzi.
12 οὐχ οὗτός ἐστιν Εζεκιας ὃς περιεῖλεν τὰ θυσιαστήρια αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ὑψηλὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ιουδα καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ιερουσαλημ λέγων κατέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τούτου προσκυνήσετε καὶ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ θυμιάσετε
UHezekhiya akasuye yini ngokwakhe owasusa izindawo zikankulunkulu lowu eziphakemeyo lama-alithare, esithi kuJuda leJerusalema, ‘Kumele likhonzele e-alithareni elilodwa njalo litshisele kulo imihlatshelo na’?
13 οὐ γνώσεσθε ὅ τι ἐποίησα ἐγὼ καὶ οἱ πατέρες μου πᾶσι τοῖς λαοῖς τῶν χωρῶν μὴ δυνάμενοι ἠδύναντο θεοὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν πάσης τῆς γῆς σῶσαι τὸν λαὸν αὐτῶν ἐκ χειρός μου
Kutsho ukuthi alikwazi yini lokho engikwenzileyo lalokho okwenziwa ngobaba ebantwini bamanye amazwe na? Kambe onkulunkulu balezozizwe benelisa yini ukukhulula ilizwe labo esandleni sami na?
14 τίς ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς θεοῖς τῶν ἐθνῶν τούτων οὓς ἐξωλέθρευσαν οἱ πατέρες μου μὴ ἠδύναντο σῶσαι τὸν λαὸν αὐτῶν ἐκ χειρός μου ὅτι δυνήσεται ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν σῶσαι ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρός μου
Nguphi kubo bonke onkulunkulu bamazwe balezozizwe ezabhujiswa ngobaba owake wenelisa ukukhulula abantu bakhe kimi na? UNkulunkulu wenu angalikhulula njani esandleni sami?
15 νῦν μὴ ἀπατάτω ὑμᾶς Εζεκιας καὶ μὴ πεποιθέναι ὑμᾶς ποιείτω κατὰ ταῦτα καὶ μὴ πιστεύετε αὐτῷ ὅτι οὐ μὴ δύνηται ὁ θεὸς παντὸς ἔθνους καὶ βασιλείας τοῦ σῶσαι τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκ χειρός μου καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς πατέρων μου ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν οὐ μὴ σώσει ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρός μου
Qaphelani lingakhohliswa nguHezekhiya limyekele elilahlekisa. Lingamethembi, ngoba kakho unkulunkulu loba ngowasiphi isizwe loba yiwuphi umbuso oseke wenelisa ukukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami loba esandleni sabokhokho. Pho kanganani ukuba owenu unkulunkulu angalikhulula yini esandleni sami!”
16 καὶ ἔτι ἐλάλησαν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ κύριον θεὸν καὶ ἐπὶ Εζεκιαν παῖδα αὐτοῦ
Izikhulu zikaSenakheribi zaqhubekela phambili zikhuluma kubi ngoThixo uNkulunkulu langenceku yakhe uHezekhiya.
17 καὶ βιβλίον ἔγραψεν ὀνειδίζειν τὸν κύριον θεὸν Ισραηλ καὶ εἶπεν περὶ αὐτοῦ λέγων ὡς θεοὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν τῆς γῆς οὐκ ἐξείλαντο τοὺς λαοὺς αὐτῶν ἐκ χειρός μου οὕτως οὐ μὴ ἐξέληται ὁ θεὸς Εζεκιου λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκ χειρός μου
Inkosi yaloba lezincwadi ithuka uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, isitsho lokhu okubi ngaye: “Njengoba onkulunkulu babantu bamanye amazwe behluleka ukukhulula abantu babo esandleni sami, kuyafanana kunjalo uNkulunkulu kaHezekhiya kasoze enelise ukukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami.”
18 καὶ ἐβόησεν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ Ιουδαϊστὶ ἐπὶ λαὸν Ιερουσαλημ τὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ τείχους τοῦ φοβῆσαι αὐτοὺς καὶ κατασπάσαι ὅπως προκαταλάβωνται τὴν πόλιν
Basebememeza ngesiHebheru ebantwini baseJerusalema ababephezu komduli, bebethusela ukuze besabe babesebethumba idolobho.

INkosi uHezekhiya lomphrofethi u-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi bakhala ngomkhuleko ngalokhu.
21 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν κύριος ἄγγελον καὶ ἐξέτριψεν πᾶν δυνατὸν πολεμιστὴν καὶ ἄρχοντα καὶ στρατηγὸν ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ βασιλέως Ασσουρ καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν μετὰ αἰσχύνης προσώπου εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν ἐξελθόντων ἐκ κοιλίας αὐτοῦ κατέβαλον αὐτὸν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ
UThixo wathuma ingilosi, eyabhubhisa wonke amadoda empi labakhokheli lezikhulu enkambeni yenkosi yase-Asiriya. Ngakho wabuyela elizweni lakhe ngokuyangeka. Esengene ethempelini likankulunkulu wakhe, amanye amadodana akhe amjuqa ngenkemba.
22 καὶ ἔσωσεν κύριος Εζεκιαν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἐκ χειρὸς Σενναχηριμ βασιλέως Ασσουρ καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων καὶ κατέπαυσεν αὐτοὺς κυκλόθεν

23 καὶ πολλοὶ ἔφερον δῶρα τῷ κυρίῳ εἰς Ιερουσαλημ καὶ δόματα τῷ Εζεκια βασιλεῖ Ιουδα καὶ ὑπερήρθη κατ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν μετὰ ταῦτα
Abanengi balethela uThixo iminikelo eJerusalema kanye lezipho eziligugu kuHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda. Kusukela lapho waba lesithunzi wahlonitshwa yizizwe zonke.
24 ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἠρρώστησεν Εζεκιας ἕως θανάτου καὶ προσηύξατο πρὸς κύριον καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτοῦ καὶ σημεῖον ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ
Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagula eselengela ekufeni. Wakhuleka kuThixo, wamphendula ngokumnika isibonakaliso.
25 καὶ οὐ κατὰ τὸ ἀνταπόδομα ὃ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ἀνταπέδωκεν Εζεκιας ἀλλὰ ὑψώθη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπ’ αὐτὸν ὀργὴ καὶ ἐπὶ Ιουδαν καὶ Ιερουσαλημ
Kodwa inhliziyo kaHezekhiya yagcwala ngokuzikhukhumeza ngakho kazange azihluphe ngesihawu ayesitshengisiwe; ngakho intukuthelo kaThixo yehlela phezu kwakhe lasebantwini bakoJuda labaseJerusalema.
26 καὶ ἐταπεινώθη Εζεκιας ἀπὸ τοῦ ὕψους τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιερουσαλημ καὶ οὐκ ἐπῆλθεν ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς ὀργὴ κυρίου ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Εζεκιου

30 αὐτὸς Εζεκιας ἐνέφραξεν τὴν ἔξοδον τοῦ ὕδατος Γιων τὸ ἄνω καὶ κατηύθυνεν αὐτὰ κάτω πρὸς λίβα τῆς πόλεως Δαυιδ καὶ εὐοδώθη Εζεκιας ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ
