2 Sarakuna 18
1 A shekara ta uku ta mulkin Hosheya ɗan Ela sarkin Isra’ila, Hezekiya ɗan Ahaz sarkin Yahuda ya fara mulki.
And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea' the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Hezekiah, the son of Achaz the king of Judah, became king.
2 Yana da shekara ashirin da biyar da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara ashirin da tara a Urushalima. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Abiya’yar Zakariya.
Twenty and five years old was he when he became king, and twenty and nine years did he reign in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah.
3 Ya aikata abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji yadda kakansa Dawuda ya yi.
And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that David his father had done.
4 Ya kawar da masujadan kan tudu, ya farfasa keɓaɓɓun duwatsu, ya sassare ginshiƙan Ashera. Ya fashe macijin tagullan da Musa ya yi, gama har zuwa lokacin nan Isra’ilawa suna ƙona turare gare shi. (An ba shi suna Nehushtan.)
He it was that removed the high-places, and broke the statues, and cut down the groves, and stamped in pieces the copper serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days were the children of Israel burning incense to it; and he called it Nechushtan.
5 Hezekiya ya dogara ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila. Ba a yi wani kamar sa ba cikin dukan sarakunan Yahuda; ko kafin shi, ko kuma bayansa.
In the Lord the God of Israel did he trust; and after him there was not his like among all the kings of Judah, nor among those that were before him.
6 Ya manne wa Ubangiji, bai fasa binsa ba; ya yi biyayya da dokokin da Ubangiji ya ba wa Musa.
And he adhered to the Lord, and turned not away from following him; but he kept his commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
7 Ubangiji kuma ya kasance tare da shi, ya yi nasara a duk abin da ya sa hannu. Ya yi tawaye ga sarkin Assuriya, ya ƙi yă bauta masa.
And the Lord was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
8 Daga hasumiya zuwa birni mai katanga, ya ci Filistiyawa da yaƙi, har zuwa Gaza da kewaye.
He it was that smote the Philistines, as far as Gazzah, and its territory, from the tower of the watchmen up to the fortified city.
9 A shekara ta huɗu ta Hezekiya, wato, shekara ta bakwai ke nan ta mulkin Hosheya ɗan Ela sarkin Isra’ila; Shalmaneser Sarkin Assuriya ya tasam ma Samariya da yaƙi; ya kewaye ta.
And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea' the son of Elah the king of Israel, that Shalmanesser the king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
10 A ƙarshen shekara ta uku, Assuriyawa suka ci Samariya da yaƙi. An ci Samariya da yaƙi a shekara ta shida ta mulki Hezekiya, wanda ya zo daidai da shekara ta tara ta mulkin Hosheya sarkin Isra’ila.
And they captured it at the end of three years, —in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea' the king of Israel, was Samaria captured.
11 Sarkin Assuriya ya kwashe Isra’ila zuwa Assuriya ya zaunar da su a Hala, da Gozan a kogin Habor da kuma garuruwan Medes.
And the king of Assyria led away Israel as exiles unto Assyria, and transported them to Chalach and to Chabor, by the river of Gozan, and to the cities of Media;
12 Wannan ya faru ne domin ba su yi biyayya ga Ubangiji Allahnsu ba, amma suka karya alkawarinsu; da dukan abin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarta. Ba su saurari umarnin ba, balle su kiyaye su.
Because they had not obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, but had transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; and had not obeyed, nor done accordingly.
13 A shekara ta goma sha huɗu ta mulkin sarkin Hezekiya, sai sarki Sennakerib sarkin Assuriya ya kai farmaki wa biranen Yahuda masu katanga ya kuma kama su.
And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib the king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and seized on them.
14 Sai Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda ya aika saƙo ga sarkin Assuriya a Lakish cewa, “Na yi laifi, ka janye daga gare ni, zan kuma biya ka duk abin da ake bukata daga gare ni.” Sarkin Assuriya ya karɓi talenti ɗari uku na azurfa, da talenti talatin na zinariya daga hannun Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda.
And Hezekiah the king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: what thou wilt impose on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria exacted from Hezekiah the king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
15 Ya zama kuwa cewa, Hezekiya ya bayar da dukan azurfan da suke a haikalin Ubangiji da kuma a ma’ajin fadan sarki.
And Hezekiah gave up all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house.
16 A wannan lokaci ne Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda ya ɓaɓɓalle zinariyan da aka dalaye ƙofofi da madogaran ƙofofin haikalin Ubangiji, ya ba sarkin Assuriya.
At that time did Hezekiah cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the door-sills which Hezekiah the king of Judah had overlaid, and gave the same to the king of Assyria.
17 Sai sarkin Assuriya ya aika da babban shugaban sojojinsa, da shugaban dattawansa, da wakilinsa daga birnin Lakish tare da ƙungiyar sojoji masu yawa zuwa Urushalima domin su yaƙi Sarki Hezekiya. Da suka haura sai suka tsaya a wurin lambatun da yake kawo ruwa daga Tafkin Tudu, kusa da hanyar Filin Mai Wanki.
And the king of Assyria sent Tharthan and Rub-sariss and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a strong army against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem; and when they were come up, they came and halted by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the washer's field.
18 Suka kira sarki, sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya sarkin fada, da Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf marubuci suka je wurinsu.
And they called for the king, when there came out to them Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder.
19 Jagoran dogarawan sarkin Assuriya ya ce musu, “Ku ce wa Hezekiya, “‘Ga abin da babban sarkin Assuriya ya ce, da wa kake taƙama?
And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherewith thou hast trusted?
20 Ka ce kana da dabara da ƙarfin soji, amma bagu kawai kake yi. Da wa ka dogara har da za ka yi mini tawaye?
Thou saidst, but it was only a word uttered with the lips, [I have] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom didst thou trust, that thou rebelledst against me?
21 Na sani kana dogara da Masar, wadda take kamar karar masara, wadda in ka jingina a kai, za tă karye tă soki hannunka. Haka Fir’auna sarkin Masar yake ga dukan wanda ya dogara da shi.
Now, behold, thou trustedst thee upon yon cracked reed-staff, upon Egypt, which, if a man lean on it, will enter into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh the king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
22 Sai ya ci gaba da cewa, in kuma ka ce mini “Muna dogara ga Ubangiji Allahnmu ne,” ba masujadansa da bagadansa ne Hezekiya ya ciccire, yana ce wa Urushalima da Yahuda, “Dole ku yi sujada a gaban wannan bagade a Urushalima”?
But if ye should say unto me, In the Lord our God have we trusted: is he not the one whose high-places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, when he said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar shall ye prostrate yourselves in Jerusalem?
23 “‘Yanzu, ka zo ku shirya da shugabana, sarkin Assuriya. Zan ba ka dawakai dubu biyu, in za ka sami mahayansu!
And now, I pray thee, enter into a contest with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
24 Yaya za ka yi tsayayya da mafi ƙanƙantan hafsan shugabana, ko da kana dogara da Masar don kekunan yaƙi da mahaya dawakai?
How then wilt thou turn back the face of a single chieftain among the least of my master's servants, while thou hast put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen!
25 Ban da haka ma, kana gani cewa na zo in hallaka wannan wuri ne ba tare da na ji daga Ubangiji ba? Ubangiji da kansa ne ya ce da ni in kawo wa wannan ƙasa hari in hallaka ta.’”
Now am I come up without the Lord ['s will] against this place to destroy it? The Lord hath said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
26 Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya, da Shebna, da Yowa suka ce wa jagoran dakarun, “Muna roƙonka ka yi wa bayinka magana da harshen Arameyik da yake muna ji. Kada ka yi mana magana da Yahudanci domin kada mutanen da suke bisa katanga su ji!”
Then said Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, and Shebnah, and Yoach, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not with us in the Jewish language before the ears of the people that are on the wall.
27 Amma shugaban sojojin ya ce, “Ai, ba gare ku da sarkinku kaɗai ne shugabana ya aike ni ba. Amma har ga mutanen da suke zaune a kan katangar birnin, waɗanda za su ci kashinsu, su sha fitsarinsu!”
But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master then sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own excrement, and drink their own urine with you?
28 Sai shugaban sojojin ya yi kira da Yahudanci ya ce, “Ku ji muryar babban sarki, sarkin Assuriya!
Then stood Rabshakeh up and called out with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:
29 Ga abin da sarki ya faɗa; kada ku bar Hezekiya yă ruɗe ku. Ba zai iya cetonku daga hannuna ba.
Thus hath said the king. Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand;
30 Kada ku yarda Hezekiya yă rinjaye ku cewa ku dogara ga Allah, sa’ad da ya ce da ku, ‘Ba shakka Ubangiji zai cece mu; yana ce da ku birnin nan ba zai faɗa a hannun sarkin Assuriya ba.’
Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city will not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria:
31 “Kada ku saurari Hezekiya. Ga abin da sarkin Assuriya ya ce, ku shirya zaman lafiya da ni, ku fito zuwa wurina. Kowane ɗayanku kuwa zai ci’ya’yan inabinsa da’ya’yan ɓaurensa, yă kuma sha ruwa daga randarsa,
Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me, and eat ye every man of his own vine, and every man of his fig-tree, and drink ye every man the waters of his cistern;
32 har lokacin da zan zo in kwashe ku, in kai ku wata ƙasa mai kama da taku, ƙasa mai yalwar hatsi, da ruwan inabi, da abinci, da gonakin inabi, da itatuwan zaitun, da zuma, don ku rayu, kada ku mutu! “Kada ku saurari Hezekiya, don karya yake muku, sa’ad da ya ce, ‘Ubangiji zai cece mu.’
Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil-olive trees, and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah; for he will mislead you, saying, The Lord will deliver us.
33 Akwai allahn wata al’ummar da ya taɓa ceton ƙasarsa daga hannun sarkin Assuriya?
Have the gods of the nations delivered in anywise each his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
34 Ina allolin Hamat da na Arfad? Ina allolin Sefarfayim, da na Hena, da na Iffa? Sun cece Samariya daga hannuna?
Where are the gods of Chamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvayim, Hena', and 'Ivvah? have they then delivered Samaria out of my hand?
35 Wanne a cikin dukan allolin ƙasashen nan ya iya ceton ƙasarsa da gare ni? Shugaban sojojin ya kuma ci gaba da cewa, ta yaya Ubangiji zai ceci Urushalima daga hannuna?”
Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
36 Amma mutane suka yi shiru ba su amsa masa ba, domin sarki ya umarta cewa, “Kada ku amsa masa.”
But the people remained silent, and answered him not a word; for it was the king's command, saying, Ye shall not answer him.
37 Sai Eliyakim ɗan Hilkiya, sarkin fada, da Shebna magatakarda, da Yowa ɗan Asaf, marubuci, suka je wurin Hezekiya da tufafinsu a kece, suka faɗa masa abin da shugaban sojojin ya faɗa.
Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyah, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told unto him the words of Rabshakeh.
