1 Mu nnaku ezo Keezeekiya n’alwala nnyo, katono afe. Nnabbi Isaaya mutabani wa Amozi n’ajja gy’ali n’amugamba nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, Teekateeka ennyumba yo, kubanga togenda kulama, ogenda kufa.”
Mumazuva iwayo Hezekia akarwara kusvikira oda kufa. Muprofita Isaya mwanakomana waAmozi akaenda kwaari akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: Gadzirisa zveimba yako, nokuti uri kuzofa; hausi kuzopona.”
2 Awo Keezeekiya n’akyuka n’atunuulira ekisenge n’asaba ne yeegayirira Mukama
Hezekia akatendeukira kumadziro akanyengetera kuna Jehovha achiti,
3 ng’agamba nti, “Jjukira kaakano, Ayi Mukama, nkwegayiridde, engeri gye natambuliranga mu maaso go n’amazima n’omutima ogutuukiridde, ne nkola ebisaanidde mu maaso go.” Era Keezeekiya n’akaaba nnyo amaziga.
“Rangarirai henyu, Jehovha, kuti ndakafamba sei nokutendeka pamberi penyu nomwoyo wose nechokwadi uye ndikaita zvakanaka pamberi penyu.” Hezekia akachema kwazvo.
4 Awo Ekigambo kya Katonda ne kijja eri Isaaya,
Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakauya kuna Isaya richiti,
5 nga Mukama agamba nti, “Genda ogambe Keezeekiya nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda wa Dawudi kitaawo nti, Mpulidde okusaba kwo, ndabye amaziga go: laba nzija kwongera ku nnaku zo emyaka kkumi n’ettaano.
“Enda undoti kuna Hezekia, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari wababa vako Dhavhidhi: Ndanzwa munyengetero wako uye ndaona misodzi yako; ndichawedzera makore gumi namashanu paupenyu hwako.
6 Era ndikuwonya ggwe n’ekibuga kino mu mukono gwa kabaka w’e Bwasuli: Era ndikuuma ekibuga kino.
Uye ndichakurwira iwe neguta rino kubva muruoko rwamambo weAsiria. Ndicharwira guta rino.
7 “‘Era kano ke kabonero k’onoofuna okuva eri Mukama nti Mukama alikola ekigambo ky’ayogedde.
“‘Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chaJehovha kwauri kuti Jehovha achaita zvose zvaakavimbisa:
8 Laba nzija kuzza emabega ekisiikirize ebigere kkumi enjuba bw’eneeba egwa, ky’eneekola ku madaala kabaka Akazi ge yazimba.’” Bw’etyo enjuba n’edda emabega ebigere kkumi.
Ndichaita kuti mumvuri waitwa pazuva udzokere shure nhambwe gumi pamutaro wawanga wafamba pamanera aAhazi.’” Saizvozvo zuva rakadzokera shure nhambwe gumi dzarakanga radzika.
9 Awo Keezeekiya Kabaka wa Yuda bwe yassuuka, n’awandiika ebigambo bino;
Chinyorwa chaHezekia mambo weJudha mushure mokurwara nokupora kwake:
10 nayogera nti, “Mu maanyi g’obulamu bwange mwe nnali ŋŋenda okufiira nnyingire mu miryango gy’emagombe, nga simazeeyo myaka gyange egisigaddeyo.” (Sheol h7585)
Ndakati, “Mazuva oupenyu hwangu achangotanga ndingafanira kupinda mumasuo orufu here? Ndigotorerwa makore angu asara here?” (Sheol h7585)
11 Ne ndyoka njogera nti, “Sigenda kuddayo kulaba Mukama, mu nsi y’abalamu. Sikyaddamu kulaba bantu mu nsi abantu mwe babeera.
Ndakati, “Handichazoonizve Jehovha, iye Jehovha, munyika yavapenyu; handichazotarisizve kuvanhu kana kuva naavo vagere munyika ino zvino.
12 Obulamu bwange buzingiddwako ng’eweema y’omusumba w’endiga bw’enzigibwako. Ng’olugoye lwe babadde balanga ate ne balusala ku muti kwe babadde balulukira, bwe ntyo bwe nawuliranga emisana n’ekiro nga obulamu bwange obumalirawo ddala.
Setende romufudzi, imba yangu yakoromorwa uye yatorwa. Somuruki ndapeta upenyu hwangu, uye iye andigura kubva pachirukiso; masikati namadekwana makaita kuti ndigume.
13 Ekiro kyonna nakaabanga olw’obulumi nga ndi ng’empologoma gw’emmenyaamenya amagumba, ekiro n’emisana nga ndowooza nga Mukama yali amalawo obulamu bwange.
Ndakamirira nomwoyo murefu kusvikira mambakwedza, asi iye akavhuna mapfupa angu ose kufanana nezvinoitwa neshumba; masikati namadekwana makaita kuti ndigume.
14 Nakaabanga ng’akasanke oba akataayi, n’empuubaala ng’enjiibwa, amaaso gange ne ganfuyirira olw’okutunula mu bbanga eri eggulu. Ne nkaaba nti, Ayi Mukama, nga nnyigirizibwa, nziruukirira.”
Ndakarira senyenganyenga kana kondo. Ndakachema sokuchema kunoita njiva. Meso angu akaneta nokutarisa kudenga. Haiwa Jehovha, ndine nhamo, uyai mundinunure!”
15 Naye ate nga naagamba ki? Yali ayogedde nange nga ye yennyini ye yali akikoze. N’atambulanga n’obwegendereza mu bulumi buno obw’obulamu bwange.
Asi ndingati kudiniko? Iye ataura neni, uye iye ndiye aita izvi. Ndichafamba nokuzvininipisa pamakore angu ose, nokuda kwokurwadziwa kwomwoyo wangu.
16 Ayi Mukama, olw’ebyo, abantu babeera abalamu, era mu ebyo omwoyo gwange mwe gubeerera omulamu. Omponye, mbeere mulamu.
Ishe, vanhu vanorarama nezvinhu zvakadai; uye mweya wangu unowana upenyu mazviriwo. Makandiporesa mukandiraramisa.
17 Ddala laba okulumwa ennyo bwe ntyo kyali ku lwa bulungi bwange, naye ggwe owonyezza obulamu bwange okugwa mu bunnya obw’okuzikirira. Kubanga otadde ebibi byange byonna emabega wo.
Zvirokwazvo kutambudzika kwangu kukuru kwakandivigira rugare. Murudo rwenyu makandirwira pagomba rokuparadzwa; makaisa zvivi zvangu zvose shure kwenyu,
18 Kubanga tewali n’omu mu nsi y’abafu ayinza kukutendereza, abafu tebayinza kukusuuta; tebaba na ssuubi mu bwesigwa bwo. (Sheol h7585)
Nokuti guva haringagoni kukurumbidzai, rufu harugoni kukurumbidzai nenziyo; vanodzika kugomba havangagoni kutarisira kutendeka kwenyu. (Sheol h7585)
19 Akyali omulamu, y’akutendereza nga nze bwe nkola leero; bakitaabwe b’abaana babategeeza nga bw’oli omwesigwa ennyo.
Vapenyu, ivo vapenyu, ndivo vanokurumbidzai, sezvandiri kuita iye nhasi; madzibaba anoudza vana vavo nezvokutendeka kwenyu.
20 Mukama alindokola, kyetunaavanga tuyimba ne tukuba n’ebivuga eby’enkoba ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwaffe, mu nnyumba ya Mukama.
Jehovha achandiponesa, uye tichaimba nemitengeranwa, mazuva ose oupenyu hwedu mutemberi yaJehovha.
21 Isaaya yali agambye nti, “Baddire ekitole ky’ettiini bakisiige ku jjute, liwone.”
Zvino Isaya akanga ati, “Gadzirai bundu ramaonde mugoriisa pamota, uye achapora.”
22 Kubanga Keezeekiya yali abuuzizza nti, “Kabonero ki akalaga nga ndiwona ne ntuuka okulagako mu nnyumba ya Mukama?”
Hezekia akanga abvunza achiti, “Chiratidzo chichava chei chokuti ndiende kutemberi yaJehovha?”
