2 Mpanjaka 20
1 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia narary saiky maty Hezekia. Ary Isaia mpaminany, zanak’ i Amoza, nankao aminy ka nilaza taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hafaro ny ankohonanao, fa ho faty ianao, fa tsy ho velona.
In those days Hezekiah was sick and dying. Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Set your house in order; for you will die, and not live.’”
2 Dia nitodika nankany amin’ ny rindrina izy ka nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah hoe:
Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the LORD, saying,
3 Jehovah ô, enga anie ka hotsarovanao ny nandehanako teo anatrehanao tamin’ ny fahamarinana sy tamin’ ny foko rehetra ary ny nanaovako izay tsara eo imasonao. Dia nitomany mafy dia mafy izy.
“Remember now, LORD, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4 Ary raha tsy mbola tafavoaka ny tanàna afovoany Isaia, dia tonga taminy ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
Before Isaiah had gone out into the middle part of the city, the LORD’s word came to him, saying,
5 Miverena, ka lazao amin’ i Hezekia, mpanapaka ny oloko, hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Davida rainao: Efa nohenoiko ny fitarainanao, ary efa hitako ny ranomasonao; indro, hahasitrana anao Aho, ka raha afaka ampitso dia hiakatra ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ianao.
“Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, ‘The LORD, the God of David your father, says, “I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day, you will go up to the LORD’s house.
6 Ary hampiako dimy ambin’ ny folo taona ny andronao; sady hamonjy anao sy ity tanàna ity amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria Aho; ary hiaro ity tanàna ity Aho noho ny amin’ ny tenako sy Davida mpanompoko.
I will add to your days fifteen years. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.”’”
7 Ary hoy Isaia: Makà ampempan’ aviavy. Ary dia nalainy ka napetany tamin’ ny vay, dia sitrana izy.
Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
8 Ary hoy Hezekia tamin’ i Isaia: Inona no famantarana fa hositranin’ i Jehovah aho ka hiakatra any an-tranon’ i Jehovah raha afaka ampitso?
Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I will go up to the LORD’s house the third day?”
9 Dia hoy Isaia: Izao no famantarana ho anao avy amin’ i Jehovah hahalalanao fa Jehovah hanao izay zavatra nolazainy: handroso hàdiny folo va ny aloka, sa hiverina hàdiny folo?
Isaiah said, “This will be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he has spoken: should the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?”
10 Ary Hezekia namaly hoe: Mora foana ny handrosoan’ ny aloka hàdiny folo; tsy izany, fa aoka ny aloka hiverina hàdiny folo.
Hezekiah answered, “It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward ten steps. No, but let the shadow return backward ten steps.”
11 Ary Isaia mpaminany nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah, ka nampiverina ny aloka hàdiny folo Jehovah, dia ilay nidinany teo amin’ ny dialin’ i Ahaza.
Isaiah the prophet cried to the LORD; and he brought the shadow ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the sundial of Ahaz.
12 Tamin’ izany andro izany no nampitondran’ i Berodaka baladana, zanak’ i Baladana, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, taratasy sy fanomezana ho an’ i Hezekia; fa efa reny fa narary izy.
At that time Berodach Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
13 Ary Hezekia nandray azy ka naneho azy ny trano rehetra fitehirizany zava-tsoa, dia volafotsy sy volamena sy zava-manitra ary menaka tsara, sy ny trano fitehirizana ny fiadiany rehetra mbamin’ izay rehetra tao amin’ ny firaketany: tsy nisy zavatra tsy nasehon’ i Hezekia azy, na ny tao an-tranony, na ny tao amin’ ny fanjakany rehetra.
Hezekiah listened to them, and showed them all the storehouse of his precious things—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, or in all his dominion, that Hezekiah didn’t show them.
14 Dia nankany amin’ i Hezekia mpanjaka Isaia mpaminany ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana no nolazain’ ireo olona nankaty aminao ireo, ary avy taiza moa izy? Ary hoy Hezekia: Avy tany an-tany lavitra izy, dia avy tany Babylona.
Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah, and said to him, “What did these men say? From where did they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, even from Babylon.”
15 Dia hoy izy: Ka inona avy anefa no hitany tato an-tranonao? Ary hoy Hezekia: Izay rehetra ato an-tranoko dia efa hitany avokoa: tsy misy zavatra tsy nasehoko azy ny ato amin’ ny firaketako rehetra.
He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing amongst my treasures that I have not shown them.”
16 Ary hoy Isaia tamin’ i Hezekia: Henoy ary ny tenin’ i Jehovah:
Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the LORD’s word.
17 Indro, avy ny andro, ka ho entina ho any Babylona izay rehetra ao an-tranonao sy izay rehetra noharin’ ny razanao ka voarakitra mandraka androany; eny, tsy hisy sisa hijanona na inona na inona, hoy Jehovah.
‘Behold, the days come that all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store to this day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left,’ says the LORD.
18 Ary na dia ny terakao aza dia hisy ho entiny koa; ka ho tandonaka any amin’ ny lapan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ireo.
‘They will take away some of your sons who will issue from you, whom you will father; and they will be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.’”
19 Dia hoy Hezekia tamin’ Isaia: Tsara ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nolazainao. Ary hoy koa izy: Eny, tsy izany va, raha misy fiadanana amin’ ny androko ka handry fahizay?
Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The LORD’s word which you have spoken is good.” He said moreover, “Isn’t it so, if peace and truth will be in my days?”
20 Ary ny tantaran’ i Hezekia sisa sy ny heriny rehetra mbamin’ ny nanaovany ny kamory sy ny lakan-drano nitarihany rano ho ao an-tanàna, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
21 Ary Hezekia lasa nodimandry any amin’ ny razany; ary Manase zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy
Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
