2 Mpanjaka 19
1 Ie jinanji’ i Kezkià izay, le rinia’e o saro’eo naho nisikin-gony vaho nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’Iehovà ao.
And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
2 Nampihitrife’e mb’am’ Iesaià, mpitoky, ana’ i Amotse, mb’eo t’i Eliakime mpiaolo’ i anjombay, naho i Sebnà mpanokitse, vaho o androanavim-pisoroñeo songa nisaron-gony,
And he sent Elyakim, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebnah the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 ninday ama’e ty hoe: Hoe t’i Kezkià: Andron-kankàñe naho trevoke vaho teratera ty andro toy, fa an-titotse te hisamake o ajajao fe po-haozarañe.
And they said unto him, Thus hath said Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and of rebuke, and derision is this day; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 Hera, ho janjiñe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o i enta’ i Rab’sakè nahitri’ i mpanjaka’ i Asore, talè’eiy, nanigike an’ Andrianañahare veloñe, hitrevoha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o o fivolañe jinanji’eo; le ihalalio i sehanga’ey.
Perhaps the Lord thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God; and who hath reproached with the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up a prayer in behalf of the remnant that is still found here.
5 Aa le nimb’ am’ Iesaià mb’eo i mpitoro’ i Kezkià rey.
And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 Le hoe t’Iesaià tama’e: Zao ty ho saontsie’ areo amy talè’ areoy: Hoe ty tsinara’ Iehovà: Ko hembañ’ amo volañe jinanji’oo, o niteraterà’ o mpitoro’ i mpanjaka’ i Asoreio ahikoo.
And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus hath said the Lord, Be not afraid because of the words which thou hast heard, with which the boys of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Oniño t’ie ho fañahieko hijanjiña’e tolom-boetse naho himpoly mb’an-tane’e añe vaho hampikorovoheko am-pibara an-tane’e ao.
Behold, I will put an [other] spirit in him, that when he will hear a rumor, he shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 Nibalik’ amy zao t’i Rab’sakè, le zoe’e nialy amy Libnà ty mpanjaka’ i Asore; toe jinanji’e ty fienga’e i Lakise,
And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
9 ie jinanjiñe ty amy Tir’hakà mpanjaka’ i Kose ty hoe: Ingo fa niavota’e hialy, aa le nañitrife’e ìrake indraike t’i Kezkià nanao ty hoe:
And he heard it said of Thirhakah the king of Ethiopia, Behold, he is come out to fight with thee; and he again sent messengers unto Hezekiah, saying,
10 Ty hoe ty ho enta’o my Kezkià, mpanjaka’ Iehodà: Ko ado’o hamañahy azo i Andrianañahare iatoa’oy, hanao ty hoe; Tsy hatolotse am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey t’Ierosalaime.
Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah the king of Judah, as followeth, Let not thy God in whom thou trustest deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Toe jinanji’o i nanoem-panjaka’ i Asore ze hene fifeheañey—fonga nimongore’e; aa vaho havotsotse irehe?
Behold, thou thyself hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands, by destroying them utterly: and thou alone shouldst be delivered?
12 Hera namotsotse o nandrotsahan-droaekoo o ‘ndraharem-pifeheañeo, i Gozane, i Karane, i Retsefe, vaho o ana’ i Edene nte Telasàreo?
Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them; as Gozan, and Charan, and Rezeph, and the children of 'Eden, who were in Thelassar?
13 Aia ty mpanjaka’ i Kamate, ty mpanjaka’ i Arpade, ty mpanjaka’ i rova’ i Sefarvainey, ty a i Hena, naho Ivà?
Where is the king of Chamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvayim, of Hena', and 'Ivvah?
14 Rinambe’ i Kezkià i taratasy boak’ am-pità’ i ìrake reiy, le vinaki’e; le nionjoñe mb’ añ’anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo t’i Kezkià, vaho vinela’e añatrefa’ Iehovà.
And Hezekiah took the letters out of the hand of the messengers, and read them: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the Lord, and spread them out before the Lord.
15 Le nihalaly amy Iehovà t’i Kezkià ami’ty hoe: O ry Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, mpiambesatse añivo’ o keròbeo, Ihe ro Andrianañahare, Ihe avao, amy ze kila fifehea’ ty tane toy; Ihe ty namboatse i likerañey naho ty tane toy.
And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord, and said, O Lord God of Israel, who dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the [true] God, thou alone, for all the kingdoms of the earth; for it is thou who hast made the heavens and the earth.
16 Manokilaña ravembia ry Iehovà le janjiño, manokafa fihaino ry Iehovà le vazohò, vaho haoño o enta’ i Senakeribe nahitri’e hiteratera i Andrianañahare veloñeio.
Bend down, O Lord, thy ear, and hear! open, O Lord, thy eyes, and see! and hear the words of Sennacherib, that which he hath sent to blaspheme the living God.
17 Vata’e to, ry Iehovà te nampangoakoahe’ o mpanjaka’ i Asoreo o fifeheañeo naho o tane’eo;
Truly, Lord, the kings of Assyria have devastated the nations and their land,
18 naho nafetsa’ iareo añ’afo ao o ‘ndrahare’ iareoo (o tsy Andriañahareo, fa satam-pità’ ondaty, hatae naho vato) vaho rinotsa’ iereo.
And they have placed their gods into the fire; for they are no gods, but the work of man's hands, wood and stone: and these have they destroyed.
19 Ie amy zao, ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay, Ehe rombaho am-pità’e zahay hahafohina’ ze hene fifehea’ ty tane toy te Ihe ry Iehovà ro Andrianañahare, Ihe avao.
And now, O Lord our God, save us, I beseech thee, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord God, thou alone.
20 Nahitri’ Iesaià, ana’ i Amotse amy Kezkià, ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Kanao nihalalia’o amako i Senakeribe mpanjaka’ i Asorey, le tsinanoko.
Then sent Isaiah the son of Amoz to Hezekiah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, What thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib the king of Assyria have I heard.
21 Hoe ty tsara nafè’ Iehovà ama’e: Malaim-bintañe azo ty anak’ ampela’ i Tsione naho itohafa’e an-tìtse; mikofi-doha ama’o ty anak’ ampela’ Ierosalaime.
This is the word that the Lord hath spoken over him: She despiseth thee, she laugheth thee to scorn, the virgin daughter of Zion; behind thee shaketh her head the daughter of Jerusalem.
22 Ia ty ninjè’o naho nonjira’o? Ia o nipoñafa’o feo naho niandrandrà’o maso am-pirengevohañeo hatretrè’o i Masi’ Israeley!
Whom hast thou blasphemed, and [whom] hast thou scorned? and against whom hast thou raised thy voice, and lifted up thy eyes on high? against the Holy One of Israel.
23 O ìra’oo ty nañinjea’o i Talè naho nanao ty hoe, Amo saretekoo ty añamboneako andigiligi’ o haboañeo, pak’an-tsifitsifi’ i Lebanone añe; firaeko ty abo amo mendorave’eo, ty soa fijoboñe amo talì’eo; izilihako i fipalira’e lavitse ama’ey, i ala’e loho matahetsey.
By thy messengers thou hast blasphemed the Lord and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I indeed come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its fir-trees: and I will enter into the lodgings on its summit, the forest of its fruitful soil.
24 Nihaly vovon-draho naho ninon-dranon’ ambahiny, vaho nimaiheko an-dela-tomboko o hene saka’ i Mitsraimeo.
I have dug and drunk strange waters, and I will dry up with the sole of my feet all the streams of besieged places.
25 Tsy jinanji’o hao? fa haehae te nanoeko? sinafiriko taolo añe, naho nampifetsahako henanekeo, eka fa fonitse, te havali’o ho votrem-piantoañe o rova fatratseo,
Hadst thou not heard that in distant ages I had prepared this? in the times of antiquity when I formed it? now have I brought it along, and it came to pass, to desolate into ruinous heaps fortified cities.
26 le salatse naho malovilovy o mpimone’e nitomoreñeo, ie hoe rongoñe an-kivok’ ao naho ahetse maindoñe, manahake ty boka ambone’ kivoho eo vaho ampemba pikole’e ie mbe tsy bey.
And thus their inhabitants were short of power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the herbs of the field, and as the green grass; as the moss on the housetops, and as corn blasted before the ear appeareth.
27 Fe apotako ty fiongaha’o naho ty fitoboha’o, ty fiakara’o naho ty fiziliha’o vaho o fitroña’o amakoo.
But thy abiding and thy going out and thy coming in do I know, and thy raging against me.
28 Aa kanao itreña’o, vaho niheo an-tsofiko ao ty fitoabora’o, le hatsatoko an-doak’ oro’o ao ty porengoko naho ami’ty montsili’o ao ty laboridiko; vaho hampipolieko amy lalañe nimba’o mb’ etoiy.
Because of thy raging against me and thy tumult that is come up into my ears, will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle between thy lips; and I will cause thee to turn back on the way by which thou camest.
29 Inao ty ho viloñe hahafohina’ areo izay: Ho kamae’ areo ze mitiry ho asa’e ami’ty taoñe toy, le ze mijirik’ ama’e ami’ty taom-paha roe; le mitongisa ami’ty taom-pahatelo, mambolea an-tanem-bahe vaho kamao o voa’eo.
And this shall be unto thee the sign, Ye shall eat this year what groweth of itself, and in the second year what springeth up after the same; and in the third year sow and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
30 Mbe hamahatse mañambane naho hamoa mañambone ty sehangan’ anjomba’ Iehoda;
And the remnant of the house of Judah that is escaped shall yet again strike root downward, and bear fruit upward.
31 fa hiavotse am’ Ierosalaime ty sengaha’e, naho boak’ ankaboa’ i Tsione ao o nahafipoliotseo. Hanoe’ ty fahimbaña’ Iehovà’ i Màroy izay.
For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and that which escapeth out of mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
32 Aa le hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà amy mpanjaka’ i Asorey: T’ie tsy himoak’ an-drova atoy, tsy hañiririña’e ana-pale, tsy hiheova’e aolo’e ey reketse fikalañe, vaho tsy haobo’e ama’e ty tambohom-panameañe.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, and he shall not shoot an arrow thereon, nor come before it with shield, nor cast up against it an embankment.
33 Amy lalañe nigodaña’e mb’ etoa ty himpolia’e añe fa tsy hifoak’ ami’ ty rova toy, hoe t’Iehovà.
On the way by which he came, by the same shall he return, and into this city shall he not come, saith the Lord.
34 Toe harovako ty rova toy, ho rombaheko ho Ahiko naho ho a i Davide mpitoroko.
And I will shield this city, to save it, for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.
35 Ie amy haleñey, nimb’eo ty anjeli’ Iehovà nanjevoñe ty rai-hetse-tsi-valo-ale-tsi-lime-arivo an-tobe’ o nte-Asoreo. Ie mañampitso ondatio le nizoeñe t’ie fonga lolo.
And it came to pass, on the same night, that an angel of the Lord went out and smote in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred eighty and five thousand men: and when people arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
36 Nienga amy zao t’i Senakeribe, mpanjaka’ i Asore, nimpoly, vaho nimoneñe e Nineve ao.
And Sennacherib the king of Assyria then departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
37 Ie nitalaho añ’ anjomba’ i Nisroke, ‘ndrahare’e ao, le nanjevoñe aze am-pibara ty ana’e Adrameleke naho i Saretsere vaho nipolititse mb’an-tane Ararate añe. Nandimbe aze t’i Esarsadone, ana’e.
And it came to pass, as he was prostrating himself in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Essar-chaddon his son became king in his stead.
