1 I A mau la he mai make ko Hezekia. A hele aku la o Isaia ke kaula, ke keiki a Amoza, io na la, i aku la ia ia, Peneia ka olelo a Iehova, E kauoha aku oe i ko ka hale ou, no ka mea, e make no oe, aole e ola.
Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagula okokufa. UIsaya indodana kaAmozi umprofethi wasefika kuye wathi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Laya indlu yakho, ngoba uzakufa, kawuyikuphila.
2 Alaila haliu ae la ia i kona maka ma ka paia, a pule aku la ia Iehova, i aku la,
Wasephendulela ubuso bakhe emdulini, wakhuleka eNkosini esithi:
3 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, ano e hoomanao mai oe i kuu hele ana imua ou me ka oiaio, a me ka naau kupono, a ua hana pono aku au imua o kou maka. Auwe nui iho la o Hezekia.
Ngiyakuncenga Nkosi, ake ukhumbule ukuthi ngihambe phambi kwakho ngobuqotho langenhliziyo epheleleyo, ngenza okulungileyo emehlweni akho. UHezekhiya wasekhala inyembezi ngokukhala okukhulu.
4 A mamua o ka hiki ana'ku o Isaia iwaena konu o ke kulanakauhale, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia ia, i mai la,
Kwasekusithi uIsaya engakaphumi egumeni elingaphakathi, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuye lisithi:
5 E hoi hou, a e olelo aku oe ia Hezekia, i ke alii o kuu poe kanaka, Penei ka olelo a Iehova ke Akua o Davida, o kou kupuna, Ua lohe au i kau pule, ua ike au i kou waimaka: owau no kou kahuna lapaau; i ke kolu o ka la e pii aku oe i ka hale o Iehova.
Buyela uthi kuHezekhiya umbusi wabantu bami: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaDavida uyihlo: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho, ngabona inyembezi zakho; khangela, ngizakusilisa; ngosuku lwesithathu uzakwenyukela endlini yeNkosi.
6 A e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la i na makahiki he umikumamalima; a e hoopakele au ia oe a me keia kulanakauhale mailoko mai o ka lima o ke alii o Asuria; a e malama no au i keia kulanakauhale no'u, a no Davida ka'u kauwa.
Njalo ngizakwengezelela iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu ensukwini zakho; ngikukhulule wena lalumuzi esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya; ngiwuvikele lumuzi ngenxa yami langenxa yenceku yami uDavida.
7 I aku la o Isaia, e lawe i wahi pai fiku: a lawe lakou ia a kau maluna o ka mai hehe, a ola ia.
UIsaya wasesithi: Thathani isigaqa somkhiwa. Basebesithatha, basifaka phezu kwethumba, yasisila.
8 Ninau mai la o Hezekia ia Isaia, Heaha ka hoailona, e hoola mai ai o Iehova ia'u, a e pii aku ai au i ka hale o Iehova i ke kolu o ka la?
UHezekhiya wasesithi kuIsaya: Yisiphi isibonakaliso sokuthi iNkosi izangisilisa, lokuthi ngizakwenyukela endlini yeNkosi ngosuku lwesithathu?
9 I aku la o Isaia, Eia ka hoailona na Iehova mai nou, e hana mai ia i ka mea ana i olelo ai: E hele mamua anei ke aka i na degere he umi, a e hoi hope anei i na degere ho umi?
UIsaya wasesithi: Lesi yisibonakaliso kuwe esivela eNkosini esokuthi iNkosi izayenza into eyikhulumileyo: Isithunzi sizakuya phambili izinyathelo ezilitshumi, loba siye emuva izinyathelo ezilitshumi yini?
10 I mai la ia, He mea uuku ke hele mamua ke aka i na degere he umi; aole ia, aka, e hoi ihope ke aka i na degere he umi.
UHezekhiya wasesithi: Kulula esithunzini ukuthi selule izinyathelo ezilitshumi; hatshi, kodwa isithunzi kasibuyele emuva izinyathelo ezilitshumi.
11 A kahea aku la o Isaia ia Iehova, a hoihoi aku ia i ke aka ihope, i na degere he umi, o na umi degere ana i iho ai ma ka mea hoike degere o Ahaza.
UIsaya umprofethi wasekhala eNkosini, yasibuyisela emuva isithunzi, ngezinyathelo esasehle ngazo esikhwelweni sikaAhazi, izinyathelo ezilitshumi emuva.
12 Ia manawa, o Merodakebaladana, ke keiki a Baladana, ke alii o Babulona, hoouna mai ia i na palapala a me ka makana ia Hezekia, no kona lohe, ua mai o Hezekia.
Ngalesosikhathi uMerodaki-Baladani indodana kaBaladani, inkosi yeBhabhiloni, wathumela izincwadi lesipho kuHezekhiya, ngoba wayezwile ukuthi uHezekhiya ubekade egula.
13 A hoolohe no o Hezekia ia lakou, a hoike aku ia lakou i ko ka halepapaa a pau, i ke kala, i ke gula, a i na mea ala, a me ka aila ala, a mo ko ka hale a pau o kana mea kaua, a me na mea a pau i loaa ma kona waihonakala, aohe mea e koe iloko o kona hale, a maloko o kona aupuni a pau, ana i hoike ole ai ia lakou.
UHezekhiya wabalalela, wabatshengisa yonke indlu yakhe yezinto eziligugu, isiliva legolide lamakha lamafutha amahle lendlu yezikhali zakhe, lakho konke okwakutholakala endlini yakhe yokuligugu; kakulalutho endlini yakhe lembusweni wonke wakhe uHezekhiya angabatshengisanga lona.
14 Alaila hele mai o Isaia ke kanla ia Hezekia ke alii, ninau mai ia ia, Heaha ka keia poe kanaka i olelo ai? a nohea lakou i hele mai nei i ou la? I aku la o Hezekia, No ka aina loihi aku lakou i hele mai nei, no Babulona.
UIsaya umprofethi wasesiza enkosini uHezekhiya wathi kiyo: Batheni lababantu? Futhi bebevela ngaphi besiza kuwe? UHezekhiya wasesithi: Bebevela elizweni elikhatshana, eBhabhiloni.
15 Ninau mai la kela, Heaha ka lakou i ike ai maloko o kou hale? I aku la o Hezekia, Ua ike lakou i na mea a pau, maloko o ko'u hale: aole he mea i koe ma ko'u waihonakala a'u i hoike ole ai ia lakou.
Wasesithi: Baboneni endlini yakho? UHezekhiya wasesithi: Babone konke okusendlini yami; kakulalutho phakathi kokuligugu kwami engingabatshengisanga khona.
16 I mai la o Isaia la Hezekia, E hoolohe oe i ka olelo a Iehova.
UIsaya wasesithi kuHezekhiya: Zwana ilizwi leNkosi.
17 Aia hoi, e hiki mai auanei na la e laweia'ku ai, ma Babulona, na mea a pau iloko o kou hale, a me na mea a kou poe kupuna i hoiliili ai, a hiki i keia la; aole e waihoia kekahi mea, wahi a Iehova.
Khangela, insuku ziyeza lapho konke okusendlini yakho lalokho oyihlo abakubekelelayo kuze kube lamuhla kuzathwalelwa eBhabhiloni; kakuyikusala lutho, itsho iNkosi.
18 A e lawe aku lakou i kau poe keikikane e puka ana mai ou mai la, i na mea au e hoohanau ai, a e lilo lakou i poe luna i poaia ma ka halealii o ke alii o Babulona.
Njalo bazathatha emadodaneni akho azaphuma kuwe, ozawazala, abe ngabathenwa esigodlweni senkosi yeBhabhiloni.
19 I aku ia o Hezekia ia Isaia, Ua pono ka olelo a Iehova au i olelo mai nei. A i aku la hoi, Aole anei e mau ana ka malu i kuu mau la?
UHezekhiya wasesithi kuIsaya: Lihle ilizwi leNkosi olikhulumileyo. Wasesithi: Kakunjalo yini, uba kuzakuba khona ukuthula lokuvikeleka ensukwini zami?
20 A o na hana i koe a Hezekia, a me kona ikaika a pau, a me ka loko, a me ka auwai ana i hana'i, a hookahe i ka wai iloko o ke kulanakauhale, aole anei i kakauia lakou iloko o ka buke oihanaalii a na'lii o ka Iuda?
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaHezekhiya, lawo wonke amandla akhe, lokuthi wenza ichibi, lomgelo, wangenisa amanzi phakathi komuzi, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
21 A hiamoe iho la o Hezekia me kona poe kupuna: a noho alii iho la o Manase kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
UHezekhiya waselala laboyise. UManase indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
