Aizaia 37
1 Hagi anankema kini ne' Hezekaia'ma nentahino'a, ame huno kukena'a tagato tagatu nehuno asunku kukena nehuno, Ra Anumzamofo ra mono nompinka ufre'ne.
When King Hezekiah heard what they reported, he tore his clothes and put on clothes made of rough sackcloth [because he was very distressed]. Then he went into the temple of Yahweh [and prayed].
2 Ana nehuno kini ne'mofo nompi kva ne' Eliakimine avontafe kre eri'zama eneria ne' Sibnane ugotama hu'za pristi eri'zama eneriza vahe'enena huzmanteno, zamasunku kukena hu'neta vuta kasnampa ne' Amosi nemofo Aisaia ome keho huno huzmante'ne.
Then he sent Eliakim, Shebna, and the (older/most important) priests, who were also wearing clothes made of rough sackcloth, to talk to me.
3 Hagi Aisaia avure uhanatite'za, Hezekaia'a amanage hu'ne hu'za ome asami'naze, Menina ama knafina tusi'a knazamo'ene, tazeri fatgo hu'zamo'ene, tagaze hu'zamo tagritera e'ne. E'inama hu'neana mago a'mo mofavre'za negegeno mofavre anteku hianagi, hankave'a omneaza huno hankavetia omne'ne.
He said to them, “Tell this to Isaiah: ‘King Hezekiah says that this is a day when we are greatly distressed. Other nations are causing us to be insulted and disgraced. We are like [SIM] a woman who is about to give birth to a baby, but she does not have the strength that she needs to do it.
4 E'ina hianagi Ra Anumzana kagri Anumzamofontega nunamu hunka antahigegeno, Asiria sondia vahete kva ne' Rabsakima kva'amo Asiria kini ne'mo'ma huntegeno eno, kasefa'ma huno mani'nea Anumzamofoma huhavizama hunte'nea nanekerera antahino ete agrira azeri haviza hugahifi antahigenka nunamu hunka taza hugeta osi'a naga'ma mani'nomota ofrita mani'mneno.
[But] perhaps Yahweh our God has heard what the official from Assyria said. Perhaps he knows that his boss, the King of Assyria, sent him to insult the all-powerful God, and that Yahweh will punish the King of Assyria for what he said. And the king requests that you pray for the few of us who are still alive [here in Jerusalem].’”
5 Hagi Hezekaia eri'za vahe'mo'zama Aisaiante'ma neazageno'a,
After those men gave me that message,
6 Aisaia'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie huta kvatamimofona ome asamiho, Asiria kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'zama Nagri'ma eme huhavizama hunantaza nanekea nentahinka korora osuo.
I replied, “Tell the King, ‘This is what Yahweh says: “Those messengers from the King of Assyria have said evil things about me. But do not be disturbed by what they said.
7 Hanki antahio, Nagra Asiria kinimofo agu'afina mago avamu ante'nugeno mago naneke eme asaminageno nentahino, ete rukrahe huno mopa-arega nevanige'na, mago vahe azampi avrentesnugeno bainati kazinteti ahe frigahie.
Listen to this: I will cause Sennacherib to hear a rumor [that the armies of Babylon are about to attack his country], and that will worry him. So he will return to his own country, and there I will cause him to be assassinated by [men using] swords.”’”
8 Hagi Asiria sondia vahete kva ne' Rabsakima antahiama, Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'a Lakisi rankumara atreno vu'ne nehazageno'a, Jerusalemi kumara ete atreno vuno ome antahiana kini ne'mo'a Libna kumate vuno hara ome nehie hazageno anantega ome ke'ne.
The official from Assyria found out that the King of Assyria [and his army] had captured Lachish [city] and that they were attacking Libnah, [which is a nearby city]. So the official left Jerusalem and went to Libnah [to report to the king what had happened in Jerusalem].
9 Hanki anante Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'ma antahiama, Kusi kumateti Itiopia kini ne' Tirhaka'a hahugantenaku ne-e hu'za hazageno nentahino'a, ke'ma erino vu vahera amanage huno huzmantege'za Hezekaiantega kea eri'za vu'naze,
Soon after that, King [Sennacherib] received a report that King Tirhakah of Ethiopia was leading his army to attack them. So before King Sennacherib left Libnah [with his army to fight against the army from Ethiopia], he sent other messengers to Hezekiah in Jerusalem with a letter. [In the letter he wrote this] to Hezekiah:
10 Amanage huta ome asamiho, kagrama kamentintima hunentana Anumzamo'ma huvempa huno, Asiria kini ne'mo'a eno hara hugagetereno Jerusalemi kumara e'origahiema hu'neana, regavataga hu'neanki anankegura kagesa ontahio.
“Do not allow your god, on whom you are relying, to deceive you by promising you that Jerusalem will not be captured by my army.
11 Tagrama Asiria kini vahe'motama mago'a kuma'ma hahu zamagateretama maka zama eri havizama hu'nonana, kagra ko antahi'nane. Hanki kagrama antahinana mago'a vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hu'noa zana hu'na, kagrira kazeri havizantfana osugahufi?
You have certainly heard what the armies of the kings of Assyria have done to all the other countries; our armies have destroyed them completely. So, (do you think that you will escape?/do not think that your god will save you!) [RHQ]
12 Hagi Gosani kuma'ma, Harani kuma'ma, Rezefi kuma'ene, Edeni vahe'ma Tel-Asari kumate'ma nemaniza vahe'enema, ko'ma nagehe'mozama ha'ma huzmante'zama zamazeri havizama hu'nazana, anumza zamimo'a magore hunora zamaza osu'ne.
Did the gods of the nations that were about to be destroyed by the armies of the previous kings of Assyria rescue them? Did those gods rescue Gozan [region], and Haran and Rezeph [cities in northern Syria], and the people of Eden [region] who were forced to go to Tel-Assar [city]?
13 Hagi Hamati kini ne'ene Arpati kini ne'ene Sefarvaim rankumate kini ne'ene Hena kini ne'ene Ivva kini ne'enena inantega mani'naze?
What happened to the King of Hamath and the King of Arpad? What happened to the kings of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah [cities]? [Did their gods rescue them] [RHQ]?”
14 Asiria kini ne'mo'ma kretre'nea avona, ke'ma eri'za e'naza vahe zamazampinti Hezekaia'a erino hamprino keteno, Ra Anumzamofo ra mono nontega ana avona erino marerino Ra Anumzamofo avure omeri atarente'ne.
Hezekiah received the letter that the messengers gave him, and he read it. Then he went up to the temple and spread out the letter in front of Yahweh.
15 Anama huteno'a Hezekaia'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne,
And [then] Hezekiah prayed this:
16 Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mota Anumzamoka Kagra hankavenentake hu'namoka, serabimi ankeroramimofo amunompi kini traka'a me'ne. Kagrake'za tamage Anumzana mani'nenka, maka ama mopa kva hu'nane. Na'ankure monane mopanena kagrake tro hu'nane.
“O Yahweh, Commander of the armies of angels, the God to whom [we] Israelis belong, you are seated on your throne above the statues of the creatures with wings, [above the Sacred Chest]. Only you are [truly] God. You rule all the kingdoms on this earth. You are the one who created everything on the earth and in the sky.
17 Ra Anumzamoka kavua negenka kagesa antenka nunamuni'a nentahinka, Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'ma kasefa'ma hunka mani'nana Anumzamoka'ma kazanava kema atregeno'ma e'neana antahio.
[So], Yahweh, [please] listen to what I am saying, and look at [what is happening]! And listen to what Sennacherib has said to insult you, the all-powerful God!
18 Tamage huno Ra Anumzamoka, Asiria kini vahe'mo'za mago'a kumatmimpi vahe'ene mopazaminena eri haviza hu'naze.
Yahweh, it is true that [the armies of] the kings of Assyria have completely destroyed many nations and ruined their land.
19 Ana nehu'za anumza zaminena tevefi hanavazi'za kre'naze. Na'ankure zamagra tamage anumzana omani'nazanki, vahe'mo'za havi anumzantamina zafareti'ene havereti erite'za zamazanteti tro hu'naza zantaminki'za anara hu'naze.
And they have thrown all the idols of those nations into fires and burned them. But they were not [really] gods. They were only idols made of wood and stone, [and that is why they were destroyed easily].
20 E'ina hu'negu menina Ra Anumzana Anumzantimoka taza hunka Senakeribi azampintira tagu'vazio. Anama hananke'za maka ama mopafima mani'naza vahe'mo'za nege'za Ra Anumzana Agrake tamage Anumzana mani'ne hu'za kagrira kage'za antahi'za hugahaze.
So now, Yahweh our God, [please] rescue us from the power [MTY] of [the King of Assyria], in order that [the people in] all the kingdoms of the world will know that you, Yahweh, are the only one who is [truly] God.”
21 Hanki anante kasnampa ne' Amosi nemofo Aisaia'a amanage huno Hezekaintega kea atrentegeno, kema erino vu vahe'mo'a erino vu'ne, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mota Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'ma hia zanku'ma nunamu hunka antahiganku,
Then I sent this message to Hezekiah: “This is what Yahweh, the God to whom [we] Israelis belong, says: Because you prayed about what King Sennacherib of Assyria [said],
22 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Senakeribiga Saioni mofa'mo'a kazanava ke nehuno, kiza zokago ke huneganteno Jerusalemi mofa'mo'a koro'ma atrenka nefresnankeno'a agena rugahie.
this is what I say to him: ‘The people of Jerusalem despise you and make fun of you. They will wag/shake their heads to mock you while you flee from here.
23 Senakeribigama azanvanke hunentenka, huhaviza hunentenka, ranke hunka kavufga erisga hu keaga nehunka, kagrama kana kavugura nagra so'e hu'noe nehunka, Israeli vahete'ma Ruotage'ma hu'noa Anumzamo'na nazeri haviza hu kea hu'nane.
Whom do you think you have been despising and ridiculing? Whom do you think you were shouting at? Whom do you think you were looking at [very] proudly/arrogantly? [It was I], the Holy One whom the Israelis worship!
24 Kagra eri'za vaheka'a huzmantanke'za e'za, Ra Anumzamo'na nazeri havizahu kea hu'naze. Hagi kagra'agura amanage hunka hu'nane, nagra karisiramini'afi mani'ne'na, marerigatere'nea agonaramimofo morusapi vano nehu'na, Lebanoni zafa tanopafina vahe ovu'afi ufre'na knare'nare sida zafaramine, saipresi zafaraminena antagi'noe hunka hu'nane.
The messengers whom you sent made fun of me. You said, “With my many chariots I have gone to the highest mountains, [even] to the highest mountains in Lebanon. We have cut down its tallest cedar [trees] and its nicest pine/cypress [trees]. We have been to the most distant/remote peaks and to its densest forests.
25 Anage nehunka inantego vanoma huana nagra'a tinkerirami kafina anampinti tina nene'na, Isipi mopafima maka'ma me'nea tintamina nagareti rerane'noe hunka hu'nane.
We have dug wells [in many countries] and drunk water [from them]. And by marching through [MTY] the streams of Egypt, we dried them all up [HYP]!”
26 Ana hu'nananagi Senakeribiga menina antahio, Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na e'ina hu'za fore hugahie hu'na korapa retro hunte'noa zamo menina efore nehianki ontahi'nano? Nagra e'ina huo hu'na hugenka hankave vihu keginama hu'naza kumatmina tapage hunka, eri mopafi atrankeno kugupaseno hihi huno mareri'ne.
[But I, Yahweh, reply], “Have you never heard that long ago I determined [those things]; I planned them long ago, and now I have been causing those things to occur. I planned that your army would destroy cities and cause them to become piles of rubble.
27 Ana nehige'za ana kumapi vahera hankavezamia omanege'za antahintahi hakare nehu'za zamagazegu hu'naze. Ana nehu'za hozafi ne'zamo mensi amumpa anteno nehagegeno, nomofo agofetu nehagea trazamo hageno ra osu'negeno zagemo te vamagiankna hu'naze.
The people in those cities have no power, and as a result they are dismayed and discouraged. They are [as frail as] [MET] grass and plants in the fields, as frail as grass that grows on the roofs of houses and is scorched by the hot east wind.
28 Hianagi kagrama noma nemaninazane, kama vanoma nehanazane, Nagri'ma tusi karimpama ahenantana zanena, nagra ko kage'na antahi'na hu'noe.
[But] I know [everything about you]; I know when you are [in your house and] when you go outside; I also know that you are (raging/speaking very angrily) against me.
29 Na'ankure kagrama tusi krimpama ahenenantenka, veganokno kavukvama hu'nana zana, nagra hago antahi'noe. E'ina hu'negu Nagra hukuni'a kagonagampi vazi rusi nehu'na, hosimofo agipima nentaza aini atupa kagipina ante'na kavazu hanugenka, ete e'nana kantega vugahane.
[So], because you have raged against me and because I have heard you speak very proudly/arrogantly, [it will be as though] I will put a hook in your nose and I will put an iron (bit/metal bar) in your mouth [in order that I can lead you where I want you to go], and I will force you to return [to your own country], on the same road on which you came [here, without conquering Jerusalem].”’
30 Hanki Hezekaiaga kagritera amanahu avame'za fore hugahie. Meni kafufina agra'ama hageno marerisnia witireti erita neneta, anaga'a kafufina ana witifinti'ma taniramino hageno rentesnia witireti erita negahaze. Hianagi nampa 3 kafurera tamagra'a hoza erita anteta neneta, waini hozanena nenteta raga'a tagita negahaze.
[Then I said to Hezekiah], ‘This will prove to you [that what I said will happen]: “This year, you(pl) will eat [only the crops] that grow by themselves, and next year the same thing will happen. But in the third year you will plant [crops] and harvest them; you will take care of your vineyards and eat the grapes.
31 Hagi Juda vahe'ma zamahe nefri'za osi'ama eme zamatrage'zama mani'naza naga'mo'za, waini zafamo hiaza hu'za, rafuna atresnageno mopafi uramisnige'za hage'za mareriza raga rentegahaze.
And [you] people who are still [here] in Judah, will be strong and prosper again [MET].
32 Na'ankure ha' vahe'mo'za nezmahe'za osi'ama zamatresnaza naga'mo'za Jerusalemi kumapintira atiramiza ne-enageno, knazampintima ofrizama osi'a naga'ma manisnamo'za Saioni agonaretira egahaze. Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'na e'ina hu'za fore hugahie hu'na hankave antahintahi retro hu'noankino, tamagerfa huno ana zana efore hugahie.
A small number of my people will survive, and they will spread out from Jerusalem [DOU].” That will happen because [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, am desiring very much to accomplish it.’
33 E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a Asiria kini nekura amanage hu'ne, Agra ama Jerusalemi rankumapina eofrege, magore huno keve'a aheotrege, hanko'a erino erava'o osuge, mani'neno'ma ha'ma hania nonkumara have kegina tvaontera eme trora osugahie.
And this is what [I], Yahweh, say about the King of Assyria: ‘His [armies] will not enter Jerusalem; they will not [even] shoot arrows into it. His soldiers will not [march outside] the city gates holding their shields, and they will not build high mounds of dirt against the walls of the city [to enable them to attack the city].
34 Agra Jerusalemi rankumapi efreku egahianagi, ete rukrahe huno anama enesia kantega vugahie huno Ra Anumzamo'a ama ana nanekea huama hu'ne.
And their king will return [to his own country] on the same road on which he came [here]. He will not enter this city!’ [That will happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!
35 Ra Anumzamo'na ra nagigu'ene, eri'za vahe'ni'a Devitima huvempama hunte'noa kegu nagesa nentahi'na, Jerusalemi rankumara agu'vazina kegava hugahue!
For the sake of my own reputation and because of what I promised King David, who served me [well], I will defend this city and prevent it from being destroyed.”
36 Ra Anumzamo'a mago Ankero huntegeno Asiria vahe'ma seli nonkuma'ma eme ante'za mani'nafi vuno, ana kenageke'za 1hantret 85 tauseni'a Asiria sondia vahera zamahe fri vagare'ne. Ana higeno nanterama masama higeno ana kumapima kazana fri'nea vahe'mofo zamavufagamoke'za avite'ne!
[That night], an angel from Yahweh went out to where the army of Assyria had set up their tents and killed 185,000 of their soldiers. When [the rest of the soldiers] woke up the next morning, they saw that there were corpses everywhere.
37 Ana higeno Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'a seli nonkumama eme ante'noma mani'neana atreno kuma'arega Asiria viazamo, Ninive rankumate umani'ne.
Then King Sennacherib left and returned home to Nineveh [in Assyria], and stayed there.
38 Mago knazupa Nisroku'e nehaza anumza'amofo mono nompi Senakaribi'a mono hunenteno mani'negeke, tare mofavre'a Adrameleki'ene Sareselikea vuke bainati kazinteti ome ahe friteke, koro freke va'azamoke Ararati moparega umani'na'e. Ana hutakeno mago mofavre'a Esarhadoni agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.
[One day], when he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his two sons, Adrammelech and Sharezer, killed him with their swords. Then they escaped and went to the Ararat [region northwest of Nineveh]. And another of Sennacherib’s sons, Esarhaddon, became the King of Assyria.
