1 Hagi Hesekia'ma agu'areti'ma huno Ra Anumzamofo kema antahino maka eri'zama eri vagama neregeno'a, Asiria kini ne' Senakeripi'a Juda vahera hara eme huzmanteno, hanavenentake vihu kegina me'nea kumatamina zamaheno hanareno kegava huzmanteku hu'ne.
Emva kwalezizenzo zobuqotho uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wafika wangena koJuda, wamisa inkamba maqondana lemizi ebiyelweyo eqonde ukuzifohlelela yona.
2 Hagi Hesekai'ma keama Senakeripi'ma Jerusalemi rankuma'ma ankanireno ha'ma huzmantenaku'ma egeno'a,
UHezekhiya esebonile ukuthi uSenakheribi usefikile lokuthi ubuso bakhe bukhangele impi emelene leJerusalema,
3 megiati'ma Jerusalemi rankumapima enefrea tima rurega humitre antahintahi retro higeno, koroma osu hanave sondia vahe'amozane, ugota eri'za vahe'amo'za aza hu'za megiama me'nea tine, tinkeria renkanire'naze.
wacebisana lezinduna zakhe lamaqhawe akhe ukuvimba amanzi emithombo eyayingaphandle komuzi; basebemsiza.
4 Ana'ma nehazageno'a, tusi'a vahe'mo'za eme atru hu'za osi tintamine, ranra tintaminema maka anama'afima me'neana rurega ome humitre eme humi atre nehu'za amanage hu'naze, Asiria kini vahe'mo'za rama'a tina me'nenige'za eme nesagi renkaniresune.
Kwasekubuthaniswa abantu abanengi, abavimba yonke imithombo lesifula esasigeleza phakathi kwelizwe, besithi: Kungani amakhosi eAsiriya ezafika afice amanzi amanengi.
5 Ana nehuno Hesekai'a Jerusalemi rankuma keginamo'ma havizama hu'neama'a eri so'e nehuno, kuma'ma kegavama hu zaza nona ana agofetu negino, ana have keginamofo amefira mago have kegina nehuno, Deviti kumapima mopamo'ma uraminerega tukeheno mopa kateno ante aviteno evu'ne. Ana nehuno ha'ma hu'zantamine, hankoraminena rama'a tro hu'ne.
Waseziqinisa, wakha umduli wonke owawudilikile, wawukhweza emiphotshongweni, lomunye umduli ngaphandle; waqinisa iMilo emzini kaDavida; wenza lezikhali lezihlangu ngobunengi.
6 Hagi sondia vahete kva vahera Jerusalemi rankumamofo kafante atruma nehazafi Hesekai'a zamazeri atru huno zamazeri hankaveti naneke amanage huno zamasami'ne,
Wasebekela abantu induna zezimpi, wazibuthanisela bona egcekeni lesango lomuzi, wakhuluma kunhliziyo yabo esithi:
7 korora osuta hankavetita otiho. Asiria kini ne'ene rama'a sondia vahe'araminkura korora huta tamahirahikura osiho. Na'ankure tagri kazigama mani'nea ne'mofo hankavemo'a, agri kazigama mani'naza vahe'mofo hankavea razampi agatere'ne.
Qinani lime isibindi; lingesabi lingatshaywa luvalo phambi kwenkosi yeAsiriya laphambi kwexuku lonke elilayo; ngoba kukhona kithi omkhulu kulaye.
8 Asiria kini ne'mofo kazigama mani'naza sondia vahera amne vahetfanke mani'naze. Hianagi Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo tagri kaziga mani'neankino, taza huno ha' vahetia hara huzmantegahie. Hagi Juda kini ne' Hesekai'ma hiankema sondia vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za hankave eri'naze.
Kuye kulengalo yenyama, kodwa kithi kuleNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu ukusisiza lokulwa izimpi zethu. Abantu basebeseyama phezu kwamazwi kaHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda.
9 Hagi mago'a kna evutegeno, Asiria kini ne' Senakeripi'a sondia vahe'ane vuno Lakisi kumate vahe'ene hara ome nehuno, Juda kini ne' Hesekaiantegane maka Juda vahetmima Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahetmintega amanage huno kea atrezmante'ne,
Emva kwalokho uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wathuma inceku zakhe eJerusalema (kodwa yena wayephambi kweLakishi lawo wonke amandla akhe elaye) kuHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda lakuJuda wonke oseJerusalema, esithi:
10 Nagra Asiria kini ne' Senakeripi'na amanage hu'na tamantahigoe, tamagra nazante tamenarentinti hu'neta, Jerusalemi kumama avazagi kaginoana, ontahegahie huta mani'nazo?
Utsho njalo uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya: Lithembeni ukuthi lihlale ekuvinjezelweni eJerusalema?
11 Tamagri kini ne' Hesekaia'a huno, Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'a Asiria kini ne' azampintira tamaguvazigahie huno neramasmie. Hianagi reramavatga nehiankita, nezanku'ene tinku'enena frigahaze.
UHezekhiya kalikhohlisi yini ukuthi alinikele ukuthi life yindlala langokoma esithi: INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu izasikhulula esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya?
12 Hagi Hesekai'a agonafima mono'ma nehaza kumatamina eri haviza nehuno, kresramanama nevaza itaramina taganavazi netreno, Juda vahe'motane Jerusalemi vahe'mota magoke Kresramana vu itareke ofa eme Kresramana nevuta, monora hiho hu'ne.
Kasuye yini lo uHezekhiya owasusa indawo zayo eziphakemeyo lamalathi ayo, watshela uJuda leJerusalema esithi: Lizakhonza phambi kwelathi elilodwa, litshise impepha kulo?
13 Hagi mago'a kumate vahetaminte'ma ko'ma nagehe'mo'zama hu'naza zane, nagrama menima nehua zana tamagra ontahi'nazo? Hagi ana vahetmina anumzazmimo'za zamaza hu'za nagri hanavefintira zamagura vazi'nazafi?
Kalazi yini engakwenzayo mina labobaba kubo bonke abantu bamazwe? Onkulunkulu bezizwe zalawomazwe babelakho lokuba lakho yini ukukhulula amazwe abo esandleni sami?
14 Hagi magore huno ana havi anumzamo'za nagri nazampintira zamagura ovazi'naze. Hagi inankna huno nagri nazampintira, tamagri Anumzamo'a tamagura vazigahie?
Nguwuphi kubo bonke onkulunkulu balezozizwe obaba abazitshabalalisayo owaba lakho ukukhulula abantu bakhe esandleni sami, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wenu abe lakho ukulikhulula esandleni sami?
15 E'ina hu'negu atrenkeno Hesekaia'a amanara huno reramavatga osino. Hagi agri kerera tamentintia osiho, na'ankure magore huno mago kumate vahera anumzazmimo'a nagri nazampinti'ene, nafahe'mokizmi zamazampintira zamagura ovazi'ne. E'ina hu'neankino tamagri Anumzamo'a nagri nazampintira tamagura ovazigahie.
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?
16 Anagema nehige'za, Senakeripi eri'za vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofone eri'za ne'a Hesekainena ke ha'rezanante'naze.
Inceku zakhe zatsho lokunye zimelene leNkosi uNkulunkulu njalo zimelene loHezekhiya inceku yayo.
17 Ana nehuno Senakeripi'a mago'a avonkreno Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofona kiza zokago kea amanage huno hu havizana huno hufenkamitre'ne, Mago'a kumate vahe anumzamo'za zamazama osu'nazaza huno, Hesekaia Anumzamo'a nagri nazampintira tamagura ovazigahie.
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 Anagema huteno'a, Jerusalemi rankumamofo have kegina agofetuma mani'naza vahe'tmima Senakeripi eri'za vahe'mo'za zamazeri koro hu'za, ana rankuma'ma zamahe'za hanarenakura, Hibru vahe kefinti ranke hu'za kezati'zami'naze.
Zasezimemeza ngelizwi elikhulu ngesiJuda ebantwini beJerusalema ababephezu komduli ukubethusa lokubahlupha ukuze ziwuthumbe umuzi.
19 Ana vahe'mo'za mago'a kumate vahe'mo'zama zamazanteti'ma tro'ma hu'naza havi anumzantaminku'ma hu'nazankna ke Jerusalemi kumate nemaniza vahe'mo'zama mono'ma hunentaza Anumzamofonkura hu'naze.
Zasezikhuluma ngoNkulunkulu weJerusalema njengabonkulunkulu bezizwe zomhlaba, umsebenzi wezandla zomuntu.
20 Hagi anankema nentahikea, kini ne' Hezekai'a ene kasnampa ne' Emosi nemofo Aisaia'enena zanazama hanigura Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'na'e.
Kodwa uHezekhiya inkosi loIsaya umprofethi indodana kaAmozi bakhuleka ngenxa yalokhu, bakhala emazulwini.
21 Ana'ma hakeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a mago ankero huntegeno, maka sondia vahetamine, sondia vahete ugagota kva vahetmina Asiria kini nemofo seli nonkumapintira zamahe hana hu'ne. Ana higeno Sinakeripi'a agazegu nehuno atreno mopa'arega vuno havi anumzama'amofo nompima unefregeno'a, mago'a ne' mofavre naga'amo'za bainati kazinteti eme ahe fri'naze.
INkosi yasithuma ingilosi eyaquma wonke amaqhawe alamandla labaphathi lezinduna enkambeni yenkosi yeAsiriya. Ngakho yabuyela elizweni layo ilobuso obulenhloni. Isingenile endlini kankulunkulu wayo, abaphuma emathunjini ayo bamenza wawa lapho ngenkemba.
22 Ana higeno Asiria kini ne' Senakerepi azampinti'ene, mago'a ha' vahetmimofo zamazampintira Hesekaiane, Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahetmina Ra Anumzamo'a zamagu nevazino, maka'zama hazazampina kegava huzmantege'za fru hu'za mani'naze.
Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uHezekhiya labahlali beJerusalema esandleni sikaSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya lesandleni sabo bonke; yasibakhokhela inhlangothi zonke.
23 Ana higeno rama'a vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofontega musezana eri'za Jerusalemi kumatera ne-eza, zago'amo marerisa muse zana Juda kini ne' Hesekaiana eri'za eme ami'naze. Ana'ma hutege'za mika kumate vahe'mo'za Hesekaiana ra agi amiza husga hunte'naze.
Abanengi basebeletha izipho eNkosini eJerusalema, lezinto eziligugu kuHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda; wasephakanyiswa emehlweni ezizwe zonke emva kwalokhu.
24 Hagi ana knafina Hesekaia'a kri erino fri'za hu'ne. Hagi ana'ma nehuno'a, Hesekaia'a Ra Anumzamofontega nunamu higeno, kri'amo'ma vagamarenogura Ra Anumzamo'a mago avame'za eri averi hu'ne.
Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagulela ukufa; wasekhuleka eNkosini; yasikhuluma laye yamnika isibonakaliso.
25 Hianagi Hesekai'a avufga ra nehuno, Ra Anumzamo'ma knare'ma hunteno azama hia zankura, musena huonte'ne. E'ina higeno Ra Anumzamo'a agri'ene Juda vahetminku'ene, Jerusalemi kumate'ma nemaniza vahetminkura tusi arimpa ahezmante'ne.
Kodwa uHezekhiya kabuyiselanga njengokwenzuzo ayeyenzelwe, ngoba inhliziyo yakhe yayiphakeme. Ngakho kwaba lolaka phezu kwakhe laphezu kukaJuda leJerusalema.
26 Ana hu'neanagi Hesekaia'ene Jerusalemi kumate'ma nemaniza vahe'mo'zanena zamagu'a anteramiza manizageno, Hesekaia'ma kinima mani'nea kna'afina Ra Anumzamo'a arimpa ahe ozmante'ne.
Kodwa uHezekhiya wazithoba ngenxa yokuphakama kwenhliziyo yakhe, yena labahlali beJerusalema; ngakho ulaka lweNkosi kalwehlelanga phezu kwabo ensukwini zikaHezekhiya.
27 Hesekaia'a tusi zagofeno ne' mani'nege'za vahe'mo'za husga hunte'naze. Hagi Hesekaia'a silvama, golima zago'amo'ma marerisa haveramima, mnanentake zama, hankoramima, mago'a zago'amo marerisa zantaminema antesia nona ki'ne.
Njalo uHezekhiya wayelenotho lodumo kakhulukazi, wazenzela iziphala zesiliva lezegolide lezamatshe aligugu lezamakha lezezihlangu lezezinto zonke eziloyisekayo.
28 Hagi hozafi ne'zantamina, witima, wainima, olivi masavema, antenia nona negino, bulimakao afutamine, sipisipi afutaminema ante'nia keginane nontaminena tro huntetere hu'ne.
Leziphala zesivuno samabele lewayini elitsha lamafutha, lezibaya zenhlobo zonke zezifuyo, lezibaya zemihlambi.
29 Ana nehuno rankumatmi tro huno sipisipi afutamine, bulimakao afutaminena zamante'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Hesekaina tusi afu kevune, zagofenone amigeno tusi zagofeno ne' mani'negu anara hu'ne.
Wazenzela lemizi, lemfuyo yezimvu lenkomo ngobunengi, ngoba uNkulunkulu wayemnikile impahla enengi kakhulu.
30 Hagi Hesekai'a Kihoni tina mopa agu'a avreno Deviti rankumamofona zage fre kaziga e'ne. Hagi Hesekai'a maka zama hia zamo'a knare zanke hu'ne.
UHezekhiya lo wasevimba umthombo wamanzi angaphezulu eGihoni, wawaqondisa ehla ngentshonalanga komuzi kaDavida. UHezekhiya waphumelela kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe.
31 Hagi Babiloni kumate kva vahe'mo'zama antahizama Anumzamo'ma Juda kumate'ma kaguvazama hiankema nentahiza, mago'a vahe huzmantazage'za ana kaguvazanku Hesekaia eme antahige'za kenaku e'naze. Hagi Anumzamo'a Hesekaiana agu'a reheno kenaku agrira atreneno ke'ne.
Kodwa kwakunjalo, mayelana lezithunywa zeziphathamandla zeBhabhiloni, ezathumela kuye ukubuza ngesibonakaliso esenzakalayo elizweni, uNkulunkulu wamtshiya ukuze amhlole ukuthi azi konke okusenhliziyweni yakhe.
32 Hesekaia'ma kinima mani'neno hu'nea zantmimofo agenkea kasnampa ne' Amosi nemofo Aisaia'ma, Judane Israeli kini vahetmimofo zamagenkema krente'nea avontafepi krente'ne.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaHezekhiya lomusa wakhe, khangela, kubhaliwe embonweni kaIsaya umprofethi indodana kaAmozi, egwalweni lwamakhosi akoJuda lawakoIsrayeli.
33 Hagi Hesekai'ma frige'za, Deviti naga'mofo matipi agonafi asente'naze. Hagi anama asente'nazana maka Juda vahetamine, Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'mo'za marerisa vahe'ma asenezamantaza'za hu'za asente'naze. Ana hazageno, Manase nefa nona erino kinia mani'ne.
UHezekhiya waselala laboyise; basebemngcwabela kweliphezulu kakhulu lamangcwaba amadodana kaDavida; uJuda wonke labahlali beJerusalema basebemenzela inhlonipho ekufeni kwakhe. UManase indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
