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 Eliakim, who [was] over the household, and Shebna 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 to him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day [is] a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy: for the children have 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.
It may be the LORD thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up [thy] prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 Aa le nimb’ am’ Iesaià mb’eo i mpitoro’ i Kezkià rey.
So 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 to them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants 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 send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumor, and 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,
So Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he had 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 when he heard it said of Tirhakah king of Cush, Behold, he hath come out to fight against thee: he sent messengers again to 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 speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God in whom thou trustest deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered 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 hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou 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 delivered them which my fathers have destroyed; [as] Gozan and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who [were] in Thelasar?
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 Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?
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 received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the LORD, and spread it 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 cherubim, thou art the God, [even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and 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.
LORD, bow down thy ear, and hear: open, LORD, thy eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent him to reproach the living God.
17 Vata’e to, ry Iehovà te nampangoakoahe’ o mpanjaka’ i Asoreo o fifeheañeo naho o tane’eo;
Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,
18 naho nafetsa’ iareo añ’afo ao o ‘ndrahare’ iareoo (o tsy Andriañahareo, fa satam-pità’ ondaty, hatae naho vato) vaho rinotsa’ iereo.
And have cast their gods into the fire: for they [were] no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
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.
Now therefore, O LORD our God, I beseech thee, save thou us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou [art] the LORD God, [even] thou only.
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 Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, [That] which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have 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 concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath despised thee, [and] laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
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 reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted [thy] voice, and lifted up thy eyes on high: [even] 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 reproached the LORD, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the hight of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down its tall cedar trees, [and] its choice fir trees: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, [and into] the forest of his Carmel.
24 Nihaly vovon-draho naho ninon-dranon’ ambahiny, vaho nimaiheko an-dela-tomboko o hene saka’ i Mitsraimeo.
I have digged and drank strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers 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,
Hast thou not heard long ago [how] I have done it, [and] of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldst be to lay waste fortified cities [in] ruinous heaps.
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.
Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were [as] the grass of the field, and [as] the green herb, [as] the grass on the house-tops, and [as corn] blasted before it is grown up.
27 Fe apotako ty fiongaha’o naho ty fitoboha’o, ty fiakara’o naho ty fiziliha’o vaho o fitroña’o amakoo.
But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage 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 thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into my ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by 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] a sign to thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits of it.
30 Mbe hamahatse mañambane naho hamoa mañambone ty sehangan’ anjomba’ Iehoda;
And the remnant that hath escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take 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 they that escape from mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD [of hosts] shall 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 saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
33 Amy lalañe nigodaña’e mb’ etoa ty himpolia’e añe fa tsy hifoak’ ami’ ty rova toy, hoe t’Iehovà.
By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.
34 Toe harovako ty rova toy, ho rombaheko ho Ahiko naho ho a i Davide mpitoroko.
For I will defend this city, to save it, for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
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 that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty five thousand: and when they 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.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria 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 worshiping 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 Armenia. And Esar-haddon his son reigned in his stead.
