< 2 Tarihi 32 >
1 Bayan dukan abin da Hezekiya ya yi cikin aminci, sai Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya zo ya yaƙi Yahuda. Ya yi kwanto wa biranen katanga, yana zato zai ci su da yaƙi wa kansa.
After these things and veritable events came Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and invaded Judah, and encamped against the fortified cities, and thought to break them open for himself.
2 Sa’ad da Hezekiya ya ga Sennakerib ya zo yana kuma niyya yă yaƙi Urushalima,
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was coming, and that his face [was directed] for war against Jerusalem,
3 sai ya yi shawara da fadawansa da hafsoshin mayaƙansa cewa su datse ruwa daga maɓulɓulan ruwan da yake waje da birnin, suka kuwa taimake shi.
He consulted with his princes and his mighty men to stop up the waters of the springs which were without the city: and they helped him.
4 Sai babban taro suka haɗu suka datse dukan maɓulɓulai da rafuffukan da suke gudu cikin ƙasar. Suka ce “Me zai sa sarakunan Assuriya su zo su sami ruwa barkatai?”
And there were gathered together a very numerous body of people, and they stopped up all the springs, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
5 Sai suka yi aiki tuƙuru suna gyaran dukan sassan katangar da suka fāɗi, suna kuma gina hasumiya a kai. Ya gina wata katanga a waje da wannan, ya kuma ƙara ƙarfin madogaran gini na Birnin Dawuda. Ya yi makamai masu yawa da kuma garkuwoyi.
Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall where it was broken down, and heightened the towers, and [built] without another wall, and fortified the Millo of the city of David, and made weapons in abundance and shields.
6 Ya naɗa manyan hafsoshi a kan mutane, ya tattara su a gabansa a fili a ƙofar birni, ya kuma ƙarfafa su da waɗannan kalmomi.
And he appointed war-officers over the people, and gathered them together unto him in the open place at the gate of the city, and spoke comfortingly to them, saying,
7 “Ku ƙarfafa, ku yi ƙarfin hali. Kada ku ji tsoro ko ku yi fargaba saboda sarkin Assuriya, da mayaƙan nan masu yawa da suke tare da shi, gama shi wanda yake tare da mu, ya fi wanda yake tare da su.
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear and be not dismayed because of the king of Assyria, and because of all the multitude that is with him; for with us there is One greater than with him:
8 Mayaƙa na jiki ne kawai suke tare da shi, amma Ubangiji Allahnmu ne yake tare da mu, zai kuwa taimake mu yă kuma yi yaƙinmu.” Mutane kuwa suka amince da maganar Hezekiya, Sarkin Yahuda.
With him there is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people relied upon the words of Hezekiah the king of Judah.
9 Daga baya, sa’ad da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya da dukan mayaƙansa suke kwanto wa Lakish, sai ya aiki hafsoshinsa da wannan saƙo wa Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda da kuma wa dukan mutanen Yahuda waɗanda suke can cewa,
After this did Sennacherib the king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem, while he was himself lying before Lachish, and all [the chief troops of] his dominion with him, against Hezekiah the king of Judah, and against all Judah that were at Jerusalem, saying,
10 “Ga abin da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya ce ga me kake dogara, har da ka dāge cikin Urushalima da aka yi mata kwanto?
Thus hath said Sennacherib the king of Assyria, On what do ye trust, that ye remain besieged in Jerusalem?
11 Ai, Hezekiya, ruɗinku yake yi, don yă sa ku mutu da yunwa da ƙishirwa sa’ad da yake ce muku, ‘Ubangiji Allahnmu zai cece mu daga hannun sarkin Assuriya.’
Doth not Hezekiah mislead you to give you up to die by famine and by thirst, when he saith, The Lord our God will deliver us out of the grasp of the king of Assyria?
12 Hezekiya kansa bai rushe waɗannan masujadan kan tudu da bagadai, yana ce wa Yahuda da Urushalima, ‘Dole ku yi sujada a gaban bagade guda ku kuma ƙone hadayu a kansa ba’?
Is it not this Hezekiah that hath removed his high-places and his altars, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, saying, Before one altar shall ye prostrate yourselves, and upon it shall ye burn incense?
13 “Ba ku san abin da ni da kuma kakannina suka yi wa dukan mutanen sauran ƙasashe ba? Allolin ƙasashen nan sun taɓa iya ceton ƙasarsu daga hannuna ne?
Know ye not what I have done, I and my fathers, unto all the people of [other] lands? were the gods of the nations of those lands at all able to deliver their land out of my hand?
14 Wanne a cikin dukan allolin waɗannan ƙasashe da kakannina suka hallaka ya taɓa iya ceton mutanensa daga gare ni? To, yaya Allahnku zai iya cetonku daga hannuna?
Who among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed, was it, that was able to deliver his people out of my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of my hand?
15 Yanzu fa, kada ku bar Hezekiya yă ruɗe ku yă kuma ɓad da ku haka. Kada ku gaskata shi, gama babu allahn wata ƙasa ko masarautar da ya taɓa iya ceton mutanensa daga hannuna ko kuwa hannun kakannina. Balle har Allahnku yă cece ku daga hannuna!”
And now let not Hezekiah deceive you, and let him not mislead you in this manner, nor believe him; for no god of any nation or kingdom whatever was able to deliver his people out of my hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less will you Gods, deliver you out of my hand!
16 Hafsoshin Sennakerib suka ci gaba da maganar banza wa Ubangiji Allah da kuma a kan bawansa Hezekiya.
And yet more did his servants speak against the Lord God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
17 Sarki ya kuma rubuta wasiƙu yana zagin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, yana faɗin wannan a kansa, “Kamar yadda sauran allolin mutanen sauran ƙasashe ba su iya kuɓutar da mutane daga hannuna ba, haka Allahn Hezekiya ba zai kuɓutar da mutanensa daga hannuna ba.”
He wrote also letters to blaspheme against the Lord the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands, who have not delivered their people out of my hand, so will the God of Hezekiah not deliver his people out of my hand.
18 Sa’an nan suka yi magana da ƙarfi cikin Yahudanci wa mutanen Urushalima waɗanda suke kan katanga, don su firgita su, su kuma sa su ji tsoro don su iya cin birnin.
Then did they call out with a loud voice in the Jewish language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to frighten them, and to terrify them: in order that they might capture the city.
19 Suka yi magana game da Allah na Urushalima yadda suka yi game da allolin sauran mutanen duniya, aikin hannuwan mutane.
And they spoke of the God of Jerusalem, as concerning the gods of the nations of the earth, the work of the hands of man.
20 Sarki Hezekiya da annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz suka yi kuka cikin addu’a ga sama game da wannan.
And king Hezekiah and Isaiah the son of Amos the prophet prayed for this cause, and they cried to heaven.
21 Sai Ubangiji ya aiki mala’ika, wanda ya karkashe dukan jarumawa da shugabanni da kuma hafsoshi a sansanin sarkin Assuriyawa. Saboda haka sai sarkin Assuriya ya janye zuwa ƙasarsa da kunya. Da ya shiga haikalin Allahnsa, sai waɗansu a cikin’ya’yansa maza suka yanka shi da takobi.
And the Lord sent an angel, who cut off every mighty man of valor and leader and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria: and when he was returned with shame of face to his own land, he went into the house of his god, and [those] that were come forth from his own bowels felled him there with the sword.
22 Ta haka Ubangiji ya ceci Hezekiya da mutanen Urushalima daga hannun Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya da kuma daga hannun dukan sauran. Ya magance su a kowane gefe.
Thus did the Lord save Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem out of the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and out of the hand of all, and guided them [safely] on every side.
23 Yawanci mutane suka kawo hadayun ƙonawa zuwa Urushalima wa Ubangiji da kuma kyautai masu daraja wa Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda. Daga lokacin zuwa gaba dukan ƙasashe suka girmama shi.
And many brought presents unto the Lord to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah the king of Judah: so that he was exalted before the eyes of all the nations after that time.
24 A kwanakin nan Hezekiya ya yi ciwo, ya yi kusan mutuwa. Sai ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, wanda ya amsa masa ya kuma ba shi alama.
In those days fell Hezekiah sick to the death; and he prayed unto the Lord: and he spoke unto him, and he gave him a wonderful token.
25 Amma zuciyar Hezekiya ta yi girman kai, bai kuwa yi amfani da alherin da aka nuna masa ba, saboda haka fushin Ubangiji ya sauko a kansa da kuma a kan Yahuda da Urushalima.
But not according to the mercy shown unto him did Hezekiah act in return; for his heart was lifted up: wherefore there came wrath over him, and over Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Sai Hezekiya ya tuba daga girma kan zuciyarsa, haka ma mutanen Urushalima; saboda haka fushin Ubangiji bai zo a kansu a kwanakin Hezekiya ba.
Then became Hezekiah humbled because of the lifting up of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Hezekiya mai arziki da girma ne ƙwarai, ya kuma yi baitulmali domin azurfa da zinariyarsa da kuma domin duwatsu masu daraja, kayan yaji, garkuwoyi da kuma domin dukan kayayyaki masu daraja nasa.
And Hezekiah had riches and honor in exceeding abundance; and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of costly vessels;
28 Ya kuma yi gine-gine domin ajiyar hatsi, sabon ruwa inabi da mai; ya kuma yi wuraren ajiyar kowane irin shanu dabam-dabam, da kuma turke domin tumaki.
And storehouses for the produce of corn, and new wine, and oil; and stalls for all kinds of cattle, and sheepfolds for flocks.
29 Ya gina ƙauyuka ya kuma samo shanu da garkuna masu yawa, gama Allah ya ba shi arziki mai yawa sosai.
Moreover he erected for himself cities, and [acquired] possessions of flocks and herds in multitude; for God had given him wealth in great abundance.
30 Hezekiya ne ya datse ruwan bisa na maɓulɓular Gihon, ya sa ruwan ya gangara zuwa gefe yamma na Birnin Dawuda. Ya yi nasara a kome da ya yi.
This same Hezekiah also stopped up the upper mouth of the waters of Gichon, and brought them straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
31 Amma da masu mulkin Babilon suka aika da jakadu su tambaye shi game alamar da ta faru a ƙasar, Allah ya rabu da shi don yă gwada shi don yă kuma san kome da yake cikin zuciyarsa.
And in the same manner in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire concerning the wonder that had happened in the land, God left him, to prove him, to know all that was in his heart.
32 Sauran ayyukan mulkin Hezekiya da kuma kyawawa ayyukansa, suna a rubuce a cikin wahayin annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz, a cikin littafin sarakunan Yahuda da Isra’ila.
And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his pious deeds, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, [and] in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Hezekiya ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi a kan tudu inda makabartan zuriyar Dawuda suke. Dukan Yahuda da kuma mutanen Urushalima suka girmama shi sa’ad da ya mutu. Sai Manasse ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the highest place of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem showed him honor at his death. And Manasseh his son became king in his stead.
