1 Hanki ana knafina Babiloni kini ne' Baladani nemofo Merodak-Baladani'a Hezekaia'ma krima erino mase'nefinti'ma kanamre'ne hu'zama haza nanekema nentahino'a, mago avonkreno nanekema eri'za vu'za e'za hu vahe nezamino, muse zanena antentege'za eri'za Hesekaiantega vu'naze.
Ngalesosikhathi uMerodakhi-Bhaladani indodana kaBhaladani inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, wathumela izincwadi lesipho kuHezekhiya, ngoba wayezwile ngokugula kwakhe lokusila kwakhe.
2 Hesekaia'a ana vahe'ma azageno'a, muse nehuno zamazeri frufra huteno zagoma nentea nonki, silvane goline mnanentake zantamine knare'nare masavene ha' zama nentea none, ana maka fenozama nentea nontamina zamaveri huvagare'ne. Hagi Hesekaia'ma kegava hu'nea mopa'afima me'nea zantamine, kinimofo nompima me'nea zantaminena magore huno otreno ana maka zamaveri huvagare'ne.
UHezekhiya wazamukela izithunywa ngokuthaba, wazitshengisa okwakusendlini yakhe yokugcinela impahla, isiliva, igolide, iziyoliso, amafutha acengekileyo, izikhali zakhe zonke, lakho konke okwakukhona enothweni yakhe. Akulalutho esigodlweni sakhe loba embusweni wakhe wonke angazitshengisanga khona.
3 Anante kasnampa ne' Aisaia'a, kini ne' Hesekaiante eno amanage huno antahige'ne, Amama ete'zama vaza vahera igati ete'za, na'ane hu'za eme hute'za vaze. Anage higeno Hesekaia'a kenona'a huno, afete mopa Babiloni moparegati e'naze.
Ngakho u-Isaya umphrofethi waya kuHezekhiya inkosi wambuza wathi, “Atheni amadoda lawana, njalo avela ngaphi?” UHezekhiya waphendula wathi, “Avela elizweni elikhatshana. Aze kimi evela eBhabhiloni.”
4 Anage higeno Aisaia'a amanage huno antahige'ne, Kinimoka nompina na'a ke'naze? Higeno Hesekaia'a kenona huno, Kinimo'na nompima me'nea zantamina ana maka kevagare'naze. Ana nehu'na zago fenoma nentoa nontamina magore hu'na otre'na ana maka zamaverihu vagaroge'za kevagare'naze.
Umphrofethi wabuza wathi, “Aboneni esigodlweni sakho?” UHezekhiya wathi, “Abone konke okusesigodlweni sami. Akulalutho phakathi kwempahla zami eziligugu engingawatshengisanga khona.”
5 Hagi anante Aisaia'a amanage huno Hesekaiana asami'ne, Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a amanahu naneke hianki kagesa antenka antahio,
Ngakho u-Isaya wasesithi kuHezekhiya, “Zwana ilizwi likaThixo uSomandla lithi:
6 tamagerfa huno mago kna ne-eankino ananknama ehanatisnigeno'a, ana maka kinimoka nompima me'nea marerisa feno zantamine, kafahe'mozama ko'ma eritruma hazageno meno eno meninema me'nea zantaminena magore hu'za otre'za ana maka eri'za Babiloni moparega vugahaze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
Isikhathi sizafika sibili lapho konke okusesigodlweni sakho lakho konke oyihlo abakugcinayo kusiyafika lolosuku, kuzathwalelwa eBhabhiloni. Akuyikusala lutho, kutsho uThixo.
7 Ana nehu'za kagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza mofavrerampinti mago'a zamavare'za Babiloni moparega vute'za, zamagonknaza ome harisnage'za mani'ne'za Babiloni kini ne'mofo nompi eri'zana erigahaze.
Njalo abanye besizukulwane sakho, abenyama legazi lakho, abazazalwa nguwe, bazathathwa bayekuba ngabathenwa esigodlweni senkosi yaseBhabhiloni.”
8 Hanki anagema higeno'a Hesekaia'a antahiteno, agrama antahiana Aisaia'ma eme hia zantamimo'a, agrama manisnia kna'afina ha' zana forera osina mani fru huta manigahune huno agesa nentahino, amanage huno Aisaiana asami'ne, Ra Anumzamofo nanekema kagrama eme nasamina nanekemo'a knare hie.
UHezekhiya waphendula wathi, “Ilizwi likaThixo olikhulumileyo lilungile.” Ngoba wayenakana esithi, “Kuzakuba lokuthula lokuvikeleka ekuphileni kwami.”
