< 2 Tantara 32 >
1 Ie añe i fitoloñañe naho figahiñañe izay, le pok’ eo t’i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asore naname Iehodà le nañarikatoke o rova fatratseo vaho naereñere’e ty hiboroboñak’ ao am-bata’e.
After these things, and this faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself.
2 Aa ie nioni’ Iekizkia te pok’ eo t’i Senakeribe, misafiry ty hialy am’ Ierosalaime,
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
3 le nilahatse amo roandriañeo naho amo fanalolahio ty hamempeañe o rano migoangoañe alafe’ i rovaio vaho nañolots’ aze iereo.
he took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which were without the city; and they helped him.
4 Aa le maro t’indaty nivory nampizenjeñe o rano migoangoañeo naho i torahañe niranga i taney, ami’ty hoe: Aa vaho homb’ etoa hao o mpanjaka’ i Asoreo hañisake rano maro?
So there was gathered much people together, and they stopped all the fountains, and the brook that flowed through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come and find much water?
5 Nañosi-batan-dre namboatse i nirobak’ amy kijoliy naho nampitroatse fitalakesañ’ abo ama’e naho i kijoly alafe’ey naho nifatrare’e ty Milo an-drova’ i Davide ao vaho niranjie’e fialiañe naho aron-defo tsifotofoto.
And he took courage, and built up all the wall that was broken down, and raised it up to the towers, and the other wall without, and strengthened Millo [in] the city of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.
6 Le nampijadoña’e am’ondatio ty mpiaolo añ’aly naho nampivoria’e an-tane midañadaña an-dalambei’ i rovay vaho nisaontsy fañosihañe am’ iereo ami’ty hoe:
And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the broad place at the gate of the city, and spake comfortably to them, saying,
7 Mihafatrara naho mahasibeha, ko hembañe, ko miroreke amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey, ndra i valobohòke mindre ama’ey, amy te bey i aman-tikañey ta i ama’ey;
Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there is a greater with us than with him:
8 fitañe nofotse ty ama’e; fe aman-tika t’Iehovà Andrianañaharentika hañolotse an-tika naho hialy amo hotakotan-tikañeo. Le nampanintsiñe ondatio ty enta’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
with him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
9 Ie añe le nampihitrife’ i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asore mb’e Ierosalaime—ie niatreatre i Lakise henane zay rekets’ i valobohòn-dahin-defo’ey—mb’ amy Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehoda naho mb’e Iehoda vaho Ierosalaime mb’eo o mpitoro’eo nanao ty hoe:
After this did Sennacherib king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem, (now he was before Lachish, and all his power with him, ) unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that were at Jerusalem, saying,
10 Hoe t’i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asore: Ino ty iatoa’ areo kanao ifeaha’ areo ty fañarikatohañe Ierosalaime.
Thus saith Sennacherib king of Assyria, Whereon do ye trust, that ye abide the siege in Jerusalem?
11 Tsy Iekizkia hao ty mamañahy anahareo, hanolora’ areo vatañe hampivetrahe’ ty kerè naho ty harandrano, ami’ty hoe: Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika ty hamotsotse antika am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey?
Doth not Hezekiah persuade you, to give you over to die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God shall deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
12 Tsy Iekizkiay hao ty nañafake o tamboho’eo naho o kitreli’eo vaho nandily Iehoda naho Ierosalaime ami’ty hoe; Añatrefa’ ty kitrely raike ty hitalahoa’ areo, le ama’e ty hisoroña’ areo?
Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and upon it shall ye burn incense?
13 Tsy fohi’ areo hao o nanoeko naho o roaeko amo hene’ ondaty an-taneoo? Ia amo ‘ndrahare’ o kilakila’ ondatioo ty naharombake i tane’ iareoy an-tañako?
Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the peoples of the lands? Were the gods of the nations of the lands any ways able to deliver their land out of mine hand?
14 Ia amo fonga ‘ndrahare’ o kilakila’ ondaty nifongoren-droaekoo ty naharombake ondati’eo an-tañako, te haharombak’ anahareo an-tañako ka t’i Andrianañahare’ areo?
Who was there among all the gods of those nations which my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of mine hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of mine hand?
15 Ie amy zao, ko apo’ areo ho sigìhe’ Iekizkia, ndra ho risihe’e an-tsata inoñe, ko iantofañe; fa tsy eo ze o ndraharem-pifeheañe ndra fifelehañe naharombake ondati’eo an-tañako naho am-pitàn-droaeko zao; somandrake te tsy haharombak’ anahareo an-tañako t’i Andrianañahare’ areo.
Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither believe ye him: for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your God deliver you out of mine hand?
16 Mbe nanovoñ-inje am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare naho niatreatre i mpitoro’e Iekizkiay o mpitoro’eo.
And his servants spake yet more against the LORD God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
17 Nanokitse taratasy ka re nanigìke Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele naho nañabiañe Aze, ami’ty hoe: Hambañe amy te tsy naharombake ondati’eo an-tañako o ndrahare’ o fifeheañe an-taneoo ro tsy haharombahan’ Añahare’ Iekizkia an-tañako ondati’eo.
He wrote also letters, to rail on the LORD, the God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of the lands which have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of mine hand.
18 Le nitazataza am-peo mafe ami’ty saontsin-te-Iehoda am’ ondati’ Ierosalaime ambone’ i kijoliio, hampirevendreveñe naho hañembañe, handrambesa’ iareo i rovay.
And they cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language unto the people of Jerusalem that were on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.
19 Le nampanahafe’ iareo talily amo ndraharen-kilakila-ndati’ ty tane toio, o toe satam-pità’ ondatio, t’i Andrianañahare’ Ierosalaime.
And they spake of the God of Jerusalem, as of the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of men’s hands.
20 Aa le izay ty nihalalia’ Iekizkia mpanjaka naho Iesaià mpitoky ana’ i Amotse, an-toreo mb’an-dindiñ’ añe.
And Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, prayed because of this, and cried to heaven.
21 Nañirak’ anjely amy zao t’Iehovà, nampaito o fanalolahy iabio naho o mpifeheo naho o mpifeleke an-tobem-panjaka’ i Asoreo. Aa le nimpoly an-kasalaran-daharan-dre mb’an-tane’e mb’eo. Aa ie nimoak’ an-trañon-drahare’e ao, le nanjevoñ’ aze am-pibara o nimoak’ an-kova’eo.
And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains, in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
22 Aa le rinomba’ Iehovà t’Iekizkia naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo am-pità’ i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asore naho am-pità’ iareo iaby vaho nañaro iareo añ’ariary.
Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all [other], and guided them on every side.
23 Le maro ty ninday ravoravo mb’am’ Iehovà e Ierosalaime ao naho raha fanjàka am’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehoda, ie nonjoneñe am-pahaisaha’ o kilakila’ondatio henane zay.
And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and precious things to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
24 Natindry an-tihy fa heta’e t’Iekizkia tamy andro rezay le nihalaly amy Iehovà naho nanoiñe aze t’Iehovà vaho tinolo’e viloñe.
In those days Hezekiah was sick even unto death: and he prayed unto the LORD; and he spake unto him, and gave him a sign.
25 Fe nifotetse amy hasoa nanoeñe ama’ey t’Iekizkia, fa nitoabotse ty arofo’e le nivotrak’ ama’e naho am’Iehodà vaho am’ Ierosalaime ty haviñerañe
But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Aa le nirèke amy fitoaborañ’ arofo’ey t’Iekizkia, ie naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo vaho tsy nifetsak’ am’ iereo ty haviñera’ Iehovà tañ’ andro’ Iekizkia.
Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Nanam-bara naho asiñe ra’elahy t’Iekizkia; le namboare’e fañajàñe volafoty naho volamena naho vatosoa naho fampafiriañe naho fikalañe vaho ze hene karazam-panake soa;
And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honour: and he provided him treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of goodly vessels;
28 riha ho amo nivokareñeo, ty ampemba naho divay vaho menake; naho lapalapa ho a ze hene karazan-kare naho mpirai-troke vaho mpirai-lia.
storehouses also for the increase of corn and wine and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and flocks in folds.
29 Mbore nañoren-drova ho am-bata’e naho nanontoñe mpirai-lia naho mpirai-troke tsifotofoto; fa nitoloran’ Añahare vara bey.
Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance: for God had given him very much substance.
30 Iekizkia ty nanampe ty loha-rano’ i Gihone vaho nampizotsoe’e mivantañe mañandrefa’ i rova’ i Davidey. Le niraorao amo fitoloña’e iabio t’Iekizkia.
This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and brought them straight down on the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
31 Fe o sorotà’ i Bavele niraheñe mb’ama’e mb’eo hañontane o halatsàñe nanoeñe amy taneioo, le nengan’ Añahare re hitsoha’e aze haharofoana’e ze hene añ’arofo’e ao.
Howbeit in [the business of] the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart.
32 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iekizkia naho o fatariha’eo, oniño t’ie misokitse amy aroñaro’ Iesaia mpitoky ana’ i Amotsey vaho amy bokem-panjaka’ Iehodà naho Israeley.
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his good deeds, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz, in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’Iekizkia naho nalente’ iareo amy talèn-kiborin’ ana’ i Davidey; le hene niasy aze amy havilasi’ey t’Iehodà naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Menasè ana’e.
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the ascent of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
