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.
Emva kwalezizenzo zobuqotho uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wafika wangena koJuda, wamisa inkamba maqondana lemizi ebiyelweyo eqonde ukuzifohlelela yona.
2 Sa’ad da Hezekiya ya ga Sennakerib ya zo yana kuma niyya yă yaƙi Urushalima,
UHezekhiya esebonile ukuthi uSenakheribi usefikile lokuthi ubuso bakhe bukhangele impi emelene leJerusalema,
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.
wacebisana lezinduna zakhe lamaqhawe akhe ukuvimba amanzi emithombo eyayingaphandle komuzi; basebemsiza.
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?”
Kwasekubuthaniswa abantu abanengi, abavimba yonke imithombo lesifula esasigeleza phakathi kwelizwe, besithi: Kungani amakhosi eAsiriya ezafika afice amanzi amanengi.
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.
Waseziqinisa, wakha umduli wonke owawudilikile, wawukhweza emiphotshongweni, lomunye umduli ngaphandle; waqinisa iMilo emzini kaDavida; wenza lezikhali lezihlangu ngobunengi.
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.

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.
Qinani lime isibindi; lingesabi lingatshaywa luvalo phambi kwenkosi yeAsiriya laphambi kwexuku lonke elilayo; ngoba kukhona kithi omkhulu kulaye.
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.
Kuye kulengalo yenyama, kodwa kithi kuleNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ukusisiza lokulwa izimpi zethu. Abantu basebeseyama phezu kwamazwi kaHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda.
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,

10 “Ga abin da Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya ce ga me kake dogara, har da ka dāge cikin Urushalima da aka yi mata kwanto?
Utsho njalo uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya: Lithembeni ukuthi lihlale ekuvinjezelweni eJerusalema?
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.’
UHezekhiya kalikhohlisi yini ukuthi alinikele ukuthi life yindlala langokoma esithi: INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu izasikhulula esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya?
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’?
Kasuye yini lo uHezekhiya owasusa indawo zayo eziphakemeyo lamalathi ayo, watshela uJuda leJerusalema esithi: Lizakhonza phambi kwelathi elilodwa, litshise impepha kulo?
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?
Kalazi yini engakwenzayo mina labobaba kubo bonke abantu bamazwe? Onkulunkulu bezizwe zalawomazwe babelakho lokuba lakho yini ukukhulula amazwe abo esandleni sami?
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?
Nguwuphi kubo bonke onkulunkulu balezozizwe obaba abazitshabalalisayo owaba lakho ukukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wenu abe lakho ukulikhulula esandleni sami?
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!”
Ngalokho-ke uHezekhiya kangalikhohlisi, kangaliduhisi ngokunjalo, lingamkholwa; ngoba kakho unkulunkulu owasiphi isizwe lombuso owaba lakho ukukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami lesabobaba. Laye sibili uNkulunkulu wenu kayikulikhulula esandleni sami yini?

Wabhala lezincwadi zokuthuka iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli lokukhuluma zimelene layo zisithi: Njengabonkulunkulu bezizwe zalawomazwe abangakhululanga abantu babo esandleni sami, ngokunjalo uNkulunkulu kaHezekhiya kayikukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami.
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.
Zasezimemeza ngelizwi elikhulu ngesiJuda ebantwini beJerusalema ababephezu komduli ukubethusa lokubahlupha ukuze ziwuthumbe umuzi.
19 Suka yi magana game da Allah na Urushalima yadda suka yi game da allolin sauran mutanen duniya, aikin hannuwan mutane.
