2 Mpanjaka 20
1 Ie amy andro rezay, natindry fa heta’e t’i Kezkià, le nimb’ ama’e mb’eo t’Iesaià, ana’ i Amotse, le nanoe’e ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Hajario ty anjomba’o fa hihomake, tsy ho veloñe.
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 Nampitolihe’e mb’an-drindriñe ty añ’ambone’e, vaho nihalaly amy Iehovà ami’ty hoe.
Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the LORD, saying,
3 Midrakadrakak’ ama’o ry Iehovà, tiahio hey t’ie nañavelo añ’ atrefa’o an-kavañonañe naho an-troke vantañe vaho nanao ty hasoa am-pivazohoa’o. Le nangololoike ty rovetse t’i Kezkià.
“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 Aa ie mbe tsy anteñateña’ i kiririsay t’Iesaià, le niheo ama’e ty tsara’ Iehovà, ami’ty hoe:
Before Isaiah had gone out into the middle part of the city, the LORD’s word came to him, saying,
5 Mibaliha indraike le saontsio t’i Kezkià mpifehe ondatikoo, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Davide rae’o, Tsinanoko i halali’oy, fa nitreako o ranom-pihaino’oo, inao te ho jangañeko, Mionjona mb’ añanjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo ami’ty andro fahatelo.
“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 Le ho tovoñako taoñe folo-lime amby o andro’oo naho havotsoko am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey, ihe naho ty rova toy, vaho harovako ho Ahy naho ho a i Davide, mpitorokoy, ty rova toy.
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 Le hoe t’Iesaià, Angalao garaton-tsakoa. Aa le nangalake le nabatra’ iereo amy honay le nisotrake re.
Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
8 Le hoe t’i Kezkià am’ Iesaià, Ino ty ho viloñe te hampijangañe ahy t’Iehovà, naho himoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao iraho te herone?
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 Le hoe t’Iesaià, Zao ty viloñe ho azo’o am’ Iehovà, te hanoe’ Iehovà i tsinara’ey: ke hionjo miaolo fange’e folo i talinjoy, he hibalike fange folo, akore?
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 Le hoe ty natoi’ i Kezkià, Raha maivañe ty hizotsoa’ i talinjoy fange’e folo: Aiy! ampibaliho fange folo i talinjoy.
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 Aa le kinanji’ Iesaià t’Iehovà, le nahere’e ami’ ty fange folo nizotsoa’e amy tarehem-pamatarañ’ andro i Ahkazeo i talinjoy.
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 Ie henane zay, nañitrike taratasy naho ravoravo amy Kezkià t’i Berodake-baladàne, ana’ i Baladane, mpanjaka’ i Bavele; fa jinanji’e te natindry t’i Kezkià.
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 Nihaoñe’ i Kezkià iereo, le fonga nitoroa’e o am-pañajam-bara’eo, o volafotio, naho o volamenao, naho o raha mafirio, naho o solike sarotseo naho i anjombam-pikalaña’ey, vaho ze nitendrek’ am-panontonam-bara’e ao; ndra loli’e amy anjomba’ey tsy napo’e, ndra amy fifehea’e iabiy, ze tsy natoro’ i Kezkià iareo.
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 armor, 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 Pok’ amy mpanjakay amy zao t’Iesaià mpitoky, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ino ty enta’ indaty rey, naho boak’ aia iereo te nivotrak’ ama’o? Le hoe t’i Kezkià, toe boake tsietoitane añe iereo, hirike Bavele ao.
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 Le hoe re: Ino ty nioni’ iereo añ’anjomba’o ao? Le hoe ty natoi’ i Kezkià, Hene niisa’ iereo ze an-trañoko ao, tsy eo ty napoko tsy natoroko.
He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.”
16 Le hoe t’Iesaià amy Kezkià, Janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà.
Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the LORD’s word.
17 Inao! ho avy ty andro te fonga hendeseñe mb’e Bavele mb’eo o añ’ anjomba’oo, naho ze vinandron-droae’o pak’ androany; tsy eo ty hapoke, hoe t’Iehovà.
‘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 Le haneseañe añe o tariratse hiboak’ ama’oo, o hasama’oo, ho mpiatrak’ añ’ anjombam-panjaka’ i Bavele ao.
‘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 Le hoe t’i Kezkià am’ Iesaià, Soa i tsara’ Iehovà tinaro’oy. Ie natao’e ty hoe: Aa tsy ho soa izay! te fierañerañañe naho hatò ty ho amo androkoo?
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 Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Kezkià ila’eo, i haozara’ey, vaho ie namboatse ty antara naho zoho nampom-ba’e rano mb’ an-drova ao; tsy misokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
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 Nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Kezkià; nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Menasè, ana’e.
Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
