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.
Kwathi lapho uHezekhiya, inkosi, esezwe lokhu, wadabula izigqoko zakhe wagqoka amasaka, wasesiya ethempelini likaThixo.
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.
Wathuma u-Eliyakhimu umphathi wesigodlo, uShebhina umabhalane labaphristi abangabakhokheli, bonke begqoke amasaka, baya kumphrofethi u-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi.
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.
Bathi kuye, “UHezekhiya uthi: ilanga lanamhla lusuku losizi lokusolwa kanye lehlazo njengalapho abantwana sekufike isikhathi sokuthi bazalwe kodwa amandla okubeletha engekho.
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.
Mhlawumbe uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho izawezwa amazwi omlawuli webutho, onkosi yakhe, inkosi yase-Asiriya, emthume ukuba athuke uNkulunkulu ophilayo, lokuthi uzamthuka ngenxa yamazwi uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho ewazwileyo. Ngakho-ke khulekela insali elokhu iphila.”
5 Hagi Hezekaia eri'za vahe'mo'zama Aisaiante'ma neazageno'a,
Kwathi izithunywa zenkosi uHezekhiya sezifikile ku-Isaya,
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.
u-Isaya wathi kuzo, “Tshelani inkosi yenu lithi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Ungesabi lokhu okuzwileyo, amazwi lawana izinceku zenkosi yase-Asiriya ezingithuke ngawo.
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.
Lalela! Ngizafaka umoya ozamenza athi nxa esizwa umbiko othile, afune ukubuyela elizweni lakhe, athi angafika khonale ngenze ukuba abulawe ngenkemba.’”
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.
Kwathi lapho umlawuli webutho esezwile ukuthi inkosi yase-Asiriya yayisisukile eLakhishi, laye wasuka wayathola inkosi isilwa leLibhina.
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,
USenakheribhi wemukela umbiko othi uThirihaka inkosi yaseKhushi, wayesiza ukuba amhlasele. Esezwe lokho wathumela izithunywa kuHezekhiya lombiko othi:
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.
“Tshela uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ukuthi: Ungavumi ukuthi unkulunkulu omthembileyo akukhohlise esithi, ‘IJerusalema kaliyikunikelwa enkosini yase-Asiriya.’
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?
Ngempela usukuzwile okwenziwa ngamakhosi ase-Asiriya emazweni wonke, ewabhidliza okupheleleyo. Wena-ke uzaphepha na?
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.
Onkulunkulu bezizwe ezatshabalaliswa ngokhokho bami bake bazikhulula na, onkulunkulu beGozani, iHarani, iRezefi kanye labantu base-Edeni ababeseThelasari?
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?
Ingaphi inkosi yaseHamathi, inkosi yase-Ariphadi, angaphi amakhosi aseLayiri leSefavayimi, loba eyaseHena kumbe eyase-Iva?”
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.
UHezekhiya wemukela incwadi eyeza lezithunywa wayibala. Emva kwalokho waya ethempelini leNkosi, wayichaya phambi kukaThixo.
15 Anama huteno'a Hezekaia'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne,
UHezekhiya wakhuleka kuThixo esithi:
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.
“Thixo Somandla, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli osebukhosini phakathi kwamaKherubhi, wena kuphela nguwe onguNkulunkulu wemibuso yonke yasemhlabeni. Nguwe owenza izulu lomhlaba.
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.
Beka indlebe Thixo, uzwe; vula amehlo akho Thixo, ubone. Lalela uzwe wonke amazwi uSenakheribhi awathumele ukuzathuka uNkulunkulu ophilayo.
18 Tamage huno Ra Anumzamoka, Asiria kini vahe'mo'za mago'a kumatmimpi vahe'ene mopazaminena eri haviza hu'naze.
Kuliqiniso, Thixo, ukuthi amakhosi ase-Asiriya abatshabalalisa bonke lababantu kanye lamazwe abo.
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.
Aphosele onkulunkulu bawo emlilweni abatshabalalisa, ngoba kungesibo onkulunkulu kodwa yizigodo lamatshe kuphela, okubunjwe ngezandla zabantu.
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.
Khathesi, Thixo, Nkulunkulu wethu, sikhulule esandleni sakhe, ukuze imibuso yonke emhlabeni ibekwazi ukuthi wena Thixo, nguwe wedwa onguNkulunkulu.”
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,
U-Isaya indodana ka-Amozi wathumela ilizwi kuHezekhiya elithi, “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: Ngenxa yokuthi ukhulekile kimi mayelana ngoSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya,
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.
nanti ilizwi uThixo aselikhulume ngaye wathi: INdodakazi eGcweleyo iZiyoni iyakweyisa njalo iyakuklolodela. INdodakazi iJerusalema inqekuza ikhanda layo lapho wena ubaleka.
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.
Ngubani lowo omthukileyo wamhlazisa? Ngubani lowo omphakamisele ilizwi lakho wamphakamisela lamehlo akho ngokuzigqaja na? NgoNgcwele ka-Israyeli!
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.
Ngezithunywa zakho umthukile uThixo. Utshilo njalo ukuthi, ‘Ngezinqola zami ezinengi ngikhwelile eziqongweni zezintaba iziqongo eziphezulu kakhulu zaseLebhanoni. Sengigamule ngawisa izihlahla ezinde zemisedari, izihlahla ezikhethiweyo zamaphayini. Ngifikile eziqongweni zalo ezikhatshana, emaguswini alo amahle kakhulu.
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.
Ngigebhile imithombo ezizweni nganatha amanzi khona. Ngezinyawo zami ngomisile zonke izifula zaseGibhithe.’
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.
Kawuzwanga na? Lokhu ngakumisa endulo. Ngakuceba ensukwini zasendulo; khathesi sengenze ukuba kufezeke, ukuthi usudilize amadolobho avikelweyo aba yizinqwaba zamatshe.
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.
Abantu bakhona, abangaselamandla, badangele njalo bayangekile. Banjengezilimo ensimini, njengamahlumela aluhlaza, lanjengotshani obuhluma ephahleni lwendlu bubuye butshe bungakakhuli.
28 Hianagi kagrama noma nemaninazane, kama vanoma nehanazane, Nagri'ma tusi karimpama ahenantana zanena, nagra ko kage'na antahi'na hu'noe.
Kodwa ngiyakwazi lapho okhona, lalapho usiza uphinde uhambe; kanye lokuthi ungithukuthelela kangakanani.
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.
Ngenxa yokungithukuthelela kwakho langenxa yokuthi ubuqholo bakho sebufikile ezindlebeni zami, ngizafaka umkhala wami emakhaleni akho lamatomu ami emlonyeni wakho, njalo ngizakwenza ubuyele ngendlela oze ngayo.
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.
Lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kuwe, Hezekhiya: Lonyaka lizakudla okuzikhulela kodwa, ngomnyaka wesibili lidle umkhukhuzela wakhona. Kodwa ngomnyaka wesithathu hlanyelani livune, hlanyelani izivini lidle izithelo zazo.
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.
Futhi insali yendlu kaJuda izagxilisa njalo impande phansi ithele izithelo ngaphezulu.
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.
Ngoba eJerusalema kuzavela insali, kuthi entabeni iZiyoni kuphume ixuku labasindayo. Ukutshiseka kukaThixo uSomandla kuzakwenza ukuba lokhu kufezeke.
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.
Ngakho-ke mayelana lenkosi yase-Asiriya uThixo uthi: Kasoze angene kulelidolobho loba atshoke umtshoko lapha. Kasoze eze kulo elehawu kumbe akhe umduli wokulivimbezela.
34 Agra Jerusalemi rankumapi efreku egahianagi, ete rukrahe huno anama enesia kantega vugahie huno Ra Anumzamo'a ama ana nanekea huama hu'ne.
Uzabuyela ngendlela eza ngayo; kasoze angene kulelidolobho, kutsho uThixo.
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!
Idolobho leli ngizalivikela ngilihlenge, ngenxa yami langenxa kaDavida inceku yami!
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!
Lapho-ke ingilosi kaThixo yasuka yayabulala abantu abalikhulu elilamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lanhlanu lezinkulungwane ezihonqweni zama-Asiriya. Kwathi lapho abantu bevuka ekuseni kwakhona bonke kwasekuyizidumbu kuphela!
37 Ana higeno Asiria kini ne' Senakeribi'a seli nonkumama eme ante'noma mani'neana atreno kuma'arega Asiria viazamo, Ninive rankumate umani'ne.
Ngakho uSenakheribhi inkosi yama-Asiriya wasuka ezihonqweni wahamba. Wabuyela eNiniva wahlala khona.
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.
Kwathi ngolunye usuku ekhonza ethempelini likaNisirokhi unkulunkulu wakhe, amadodana akhe u-Adrameleki loShareza ambulala ngenkemba asebalekela elizweni lase-Ararathi. U-Esarihadoni indodana yakhe yaba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.”
