2 Amakhosi 18
1 Ngomnyaka wesithathu kaHosheya indodana ka-Ela inkosi yako-Israyeli, uHezekhiya indodana ka-Ahazi inkosi yakoJuda waqalisa ukubusa.
Elaⱨning oƣli, Israilning padixaⱨi Ⱨoxiyaning sǝltǝnitining üqinqi yilida, Yǝⱨudaning [sabiⱪ] padixaⱨi Aⱨazning oƣli Ⱨǝzǝkiya Yǝⱨudaƣa padixaⱨ boldi.
2 Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu esiba yinkosi, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lasificamunwemunye. Ibizo likanina lalingu-Abhija indodakazi kaZakhariya.
U padixaⱨ bolƣanda yigirmǝ bǝx yaxta bolup, Yerusalemda yigirmǝ toⱪⱪuz yil sǝltǝnǝt ⱪildi. Uning anisining ismi Abi idi; u Zǝkǝriyaning ⱪizi idi.
3 Wenza okulungileyo phambi kukaThixo, njengalokho okwakwenziwe nguyise uDavida.
Ⱨǝzǝkiya bolsa atisi Dawutning barliⱪ ⱪilƣinidǝk, Pǝrwǝrdigarning nǝziridǝ durus bolƣanni ⱪilatti.
4 Wadiliza izindawo zokukhonzela, wabhidliza amatshe ababewakhonza njalo wagamulela phansi insika zika-Ashera. Watshaya wenza izicucu inyoka yethusi eyayenziwe nguMosi, ngoba kuze kube yilesosikhathi abako-Israyeli babelokhu beyitshisela impepha. (Yayibizwa ngokuthi Nehushithani.)
U «yuⱪiri jaylar»ni yoⱪitip, «but tüwrüklǝr»ni qeⱪip «Axǝraⱨ»larni kesip taxlap, Musa yasatⱪan mis yilanni qeⱪip parǝ-parǝ ⱪilip (qünki u qaƣⱪiqǝ Israillar uningƣa huxbuy yaⱪatti), uningƣa «Nǝⱨuxtan!» dǝp isim ⱪoydi.
5 UHezekhiya wayethembele kuThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli. Kakho owayenjengaye kuwo wonke amakhosi akoJuda, loba kulabo abamandulelayo kumbe labo abamlandelayo ekubuseni.
Ⱨǝzǝkiya Israilning Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa tayandi. Bu jǝⱨǝttǝ nǝ uningdin keyin kǝlgǝn nǝ uningdin ilgiri ɵtkǝn Yǝⱨuda padixaⱨlirining arisidiki ⱨeqbiri uningƣa yǝtmǝytti.
6 Wabambelela kuThixo kazange ekele ukumlandela, wagcina imilayo uThixo ayeyinike uMosi.
U Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa qing baƣlinip uningƣa ǝgixixtin qiⱪmay, bǝlki Pǝrwǝrdigar Musaƣa buyruƣan ǝmrlǝrni tutatti.
7 UThixo wayelaye; waphumelela kukho konke ayekwenza. Wahlamukela inkosi yase-Asiriya kasabanga ngaphansi kwayo.
Pǝrwǝrdigar uning bilǝn billǝ idi; u ⱪaysila ixⱪa qiⱪsa xuningda rawajliⱪ bolatti. U Asuriyǝ padixaⱨining ⱨakimiyitigǝ ⱪarxi qiⱪip uningƣa beⱪindi boluxtin yandi.
8 Kusukela emphongolweni wesilindo kusiya emzini oyinqaba, wanqoba amaFilistiya, kuze kuyefika khonale eGaza lamazwe akhona.
U Filistiylǝrgǝ ⱨujum ⱪilip ularni Gaza xǝⱨiri wǝ uning ǝtrapidiki zeminliriƣiqǝ, kɵzǝt munaridin mustǝⱨkǝm ⱪorƣanƣiqǝ besip mǝƣlup ⱪildi.
9 Ngomnyaka wesine wenkosi uHezekhiya, okwakungumnyaka wesikhombisa wokubusa kukaHosheya indodana ka-Ela inkosi yako-Israyeli, uShalimaneseri inkosi yase-Asiriya wayahlasela iSamariya wayivimbezela.
Wǝ xundaⱪ boldiki, Ⱨǝzǝkiya padixaⱨning sǝltǝnitining tɵtinqi yilida, yǝni Israilning [sabiⱪ] padixaⱨi Elaⱨning oƣli Ⱨoxiyaning sǝltǝnitining yǝttinqi yilida, Asuriyǝning padixaⱨi Xalmanǝzǝr Samariyǝgǝ ⱨujum ⱪilip uni ⱪamal ⱪildi.
10 Ngemva kweminyaka emithathu ama-Asiriya alithumba. Ngakho iSamariya yathunjwa ngomnyaka wesithupha wokubusa kukaHezekhiya, okwakungumnyaka wesificamunwemunye wokubusa kukaHosheya inkosi yako-Israyeli.
Üq yildin keyin ular xǝⱨǝrni aldi; Ⱨǝzǝkiyaning sǝltǝnitining toⱪⱪuzinqi yili, yǝni Israil padixaⱨi Ⱨoxiyaning sǝltǝnitining toⱪⱪuzinqi yilida, Samariyǝ ixƣal ⱪilindi.
11 Inkosi yase-Asiriya yaxotshela abako-Israyeli e-Asiriya yabahlalisa eHala ngaseGozani eMfuleni uHabhori lasemizini yamaMede.
Andin Asuriyǝning padixaⱨi Israillarni Asuriyǝgǝ elip ketip, ularni Halaⱨda, Gozandiki Habor dǝryasining boylirida wǝ Medialarning xǝⱨǝrliridǝ makanlaxturdi.
12 Lokhu kwenzakala ngoba bengalalelanga uThixo wabo, kodwa sebephule isivumelwano sakhe, lakho konke uMosi inceku kaThixo ayebalaye ngakho. Abazanga balalele njalo abazanga bakwenze.
Qünki ular ɵz Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarning awaziƣa itaǝt ⱪilmidi, bǝlki Uning ǝⱨdisigǝ, yǝni Pǝrwǝrdigarning ⱪuli Musa buyruƣanning ⱨǝmmisigǝ hilapliⱪ ⱪildi; ular yaki ⱪulaⱪ salmidi, yaki ǝmǝl ⱪilmidi.
13 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lane wokubusa kwenkosi uHezekhiya, uSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya wahlasela wonke amadolobho avikelweyo akoJuda wawathumba.
Ⱨǝzǝkiya padixaⱨning sǝltǝnitining on tɵtinqi yili, Asuriyǝning padixaⱨi Sǝnnaherib Yǝⱨudaning barliⱪ ⱪorƣanliⱪ xǝⱨǝrlirigǝ ⱨujum ⱪilip qiⱪip, ularni ixƣal ⱪildi.
14 Ngakho uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda wathumela ilizwi enkosini yase-Asiriya eLakhishi esithi, “Ngiphambanisile. Suka kimi, mina ngizakubhadala konke okufunayo kimi.” Inkosi yase-Asiriya yathi uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda kayinike amathalenta esiliva angamakhulu amathathu kanye legolide elingamathalenta angamatshumi amathathu.
U waⱪitta Yǝⱨudaning padixaⱨi Ⱨǝzǝkiya Laⱪixⱪa adǝm ǝwǝtip, Asuriyǝning padixaⱨiƣa: Mǝn gunaⱨkar! Mǝndin qekingǝyla, üstümgǝ ⱨǝrnemǝ qüxürsilǝ xuni [tɵlǝymǝn], — dedi. Asuriyǝning padixaⱨi Ⱨǝzǝkiyaƣa üq yüz talant kümüx bilǝn ottuz talant altun tohtitip ⱪoydi.
15 Ngakho uHezekhiya wamnika sonke isiliva esatholakala ethempelini likaThixo lasezindlini zenotho yesigodlweni senkosi.
Ⱨǝzǝkiya Pǝrwǝrdigarning ɵyidiki wǝ padixaⱨning ordisining hǝzinisidiki barliⱪ kümüxni elip bǝrdi.
16 Ngalesisikhathi uHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda waxexebula igolide elalisezivalweni zethempeli likaThixo lelalinanyathiselwe emigubazini yethempeli likaThixo, walinika inkosi yase-Asiriya.
Xuning bilǝn bir waⱪitta Yǝⱨudaning padixaⱨi Ⱨǝzǝkiya Pǝrwǝrdigarning ɵyining ixikliridin wǝ ɵzi ǝslidǝ ⱪaplatⱪan ixik kexǝkliridin altunni ajritip elip, Asuriyǝning padixaⱨiƣa bǝrdi.
17 Inkosi yase-Asiriya yathumela umlawuli omkhulu wamabutho ayo, lesikhulu somndlunkulu kanye lomlawuli wamabutho lamabutho amanengi, besuka eLakhishi besiya enkosini uHezekhiya eJerusalema. Bafika eJerusalema bema emgelweni wechibi elingaphezulu, elisendleleni yeNsimu yoMgezisi.
Xu qaƣda Asuriyǝ padixaⱨi Sǝnnaherib Tartan, Rab-Saris wǝ Rab-Xakǝⱨlirini qong ⱪoxun bilǝn Laⱪix xǝⱨiridin Yerusalemƣa, Ⱨǝzǝkiyaning yeniƣa ǝwǝtti. Ular Yerusalemƣa qiⱪip kǝldi. Qiⱪⱪanda, ular kir yuƣuqilarning etizining boyidiki yolda, yuⱪiri kɵlqǝkning norining bexiƣa kelip turdi.
18 Babiza inkosi ngokwayo: Kodwa kweza u-Eliyakhimu indodana kaHilikhiya umphathi wesigodlo, loShebhina umabhalane, loJowa indodana ka-Asafi umbhali.
Ular padixaⱨni qaⱪirƣanda, Ⱨilⱪiyaning oƣli, ordini baxⱪuridiƣan Eliakim, ordining diwanbegi Xǝbna wǝ Asafning oƣli, orda mirzibegi Yoaⱨlar ularning yeniƣa kǝldi.
19 Umlawuli webutho wathi kubo, “Tshelani uHezekhiya ukuthi: ‘Nanku okutshiwo yinkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya ithi: Uthembeni ngalesisibindi sakho na?
Wǝ Rab-Xakǝⱨ ularƣa mundaⱪ dedi: — «Silǝr Ⱨǝzǝkiyaƣa: — «Uluƣ padixaⱨ, yǝni Asuriyǝ padixaⱨi sanga mundaⱪ dedi, dǝnglar: — Sening muxu ixǝngǝn tayanqing zadi nemidi?
20 Uthi ulamaqhinga lamandla ebutho, kodwa ukhuluma amazwi ayize. Uthembe bani uze ungihlamukele nje?
Sǝn: «Urux ⱪilixⱪa tǝdbir-mǝsliⱨǝtimiz ⱨǝm küqimiz bar, dǝysǝn — bu pǝⱪǝt bir ⱪuruⱪ gǝp, halas! — Sǝn zadi kimgǝ tayinip manga ⱪarxi ɵktǝ ⱪopisǝn?
21 Khangela, ngiyazi uthembe iGibhithe, yona enjengomhlanga ozimvava osika isandla somuntu umlimaze nxa eweyamile. Unjalo uFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe kubo bonke abathembele kuye.
Mana ǝmdi sǝn yeriⱪi bar axu ⱪomux ⱨasa, yǝni Misirƣa tayinisǝn. Birsi uningƣa yɵlǝnsǝ, uning ⱪoliƣa sanjip kiridu; Misir padixaⱨi Pirǝwngǝ tayanƣanlarning ⱨǝmmisi xundaⱪ bolidu!
22 Njalo nxa lisithi kimi, “Thina sithembe uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu”: kasuye yini uHezekhiya asusa izindawo zakhe eziphakemeyo lama-alithare akhe, esithi kuJuda leJerusalema, “Kumele likhonzele phambi kwaleli i-alithari eliseJerusalema”?
Əgǝr silǝr manga: «Biz Hudayimiz bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa tayinimiz» — desǝnglar, Ⱨǝzǝkiya ɵzi Yǝⱨudadikilǝrgǝ wǝ Yerusalemdikilǝrgǝ: «Silǝr pǝⱪǝt Yerusalemdiki muxu ibadǝtgaⱨ aldidila ibadǝt ⱪilixinglar kerǝk» dǝp, uningƣa atalƣan «yuⱪiri jaylar»ni ⱨǝm ⱪurbangaⱨlarni yoⱪ ⱪiliwǝttiƣu? Ular axu Pǝrwǝrdigarning yuⱪiri jayliri ǝmǝsmidi?
23 Khathesi woza wenze isivumelwano lenkosi yami, inkosi yase-Asiriya: Ngizakunika amabhiza azinkulungwane ezimbili nxa bekhona abazawagada!
Əmdi ⱨazir hojayinim Asuriyǝ padixaⱨi bilǝn bir tohtamƣa kelinglar: — «Əgǝr silǝrdǝ ularƣa minǝligüdǝk ǝskǝrliringlar bolsa, mǝn silǝrgǝ ikki ming atni bikarƣa berǝy!»
24 Pho ungayehlula njani induna yezikhulu ezincane zenkosi yami eyodwa, lanxa uthembele eGibhithe ekutholeni izinqola zempi labagadi bamabhiza na?
Silǝrdǝ undaⱪlar bolmisa, hojayinimning ǝmǝldarlirining ǝng kiqiki bolƣan bir lǝxkǝr bexini ⱪandaⱪmu qekindürǝlǝysilǝr?! Gǝrqǝ silǝr jǝng ⱨarwiliri wǝ atlarni elix üqün Misirƣa tayinisilǝr!
25 Phezu kwalokho, kanti ngizehlasela lokuzochitha lindawo ngaphandle kwelizwi elivela kuThixo na? UThixo uqobo nguye othe ngizohlasela ilizwe leli ngilichithe.’”
Mǝn muxu yǝrni ⱨalak ⱪilix üqün Pǝrwǝrdigarsiz kǝldimmu? Qünki Pǝrwǝrdigar manga: «Muxu zeminni ⱨalak ⱪilixⱪa qiⱪⱪin» — dedi!».
26 Ngakho u-Eliyakhimu indodana kaHilikhiya, loShebhina loJowa bathi kumlawuli webutho, “Ake ukhulume ezincekwini zakho ngesi-Aramayikhi, ngoba siyasizwa. Ungasikhulumisi ngesiHebheru lababantu abasemdulini besizwa.”
Eliakim, Xǝbna wǝ Yoaⱨ Rab-Xakǝⱨgǝ: — Peⱪirliriƣa aramiy tilida sɵzlisilǝ; biz buni qüxinimiz. Bizgǝ ibraniy tilida sɵzlimisilǝ, gǝpliri sepilda turƣanlarning ⱪuliⱪiƣa kirmisun! — dedi.
27 Kodwa umlawuli webutho waphendula esithi, “Inkosi yami ingithume ukuba izinto lezi ngizitsho kuphela enkosini yenu lakini, hatshi ebantwini abahlezi emdulini, okuzakuthi labo, njengani badle ubulongwe babo banathe lomchamo wabo na?”
Biraⱪ Rab-Xakǝⱨ: — Hojayinim meni muxu gǝpni hojayininglarƣa wǝ silǝrgila eytixⱪa ǝwǝtkǝnmu? Muxu gǝpni silǝr bilǝn birliktǝ sepilda olturƣanlarƣa deyixkǝ ǝwǝtkǝn ǝmǝsmu? Qünki ular ɵz poⱪini yegüqi ⱨǝm ɵz süydükini iqküqi bolidu!» — dedi.
28 Umlawuli webutho wasukuma wasememeza ngesiHebheru esithi, “Zwanini ilizwi lenkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya!
Andin Rab-Xakǝⱨ ibraniy tilida yuⱪiri awaz bilǝn: «Uluƣ padixaⱨ, yǝni Asuriyǝ padixaⱨining sɵzlirini anglap ⱪoyunglar!» — dǝp warⱪiridi.
29 Lokhu yikho okutshiwo yinkosi: Lingamvumeli uHezekhiya ukuba alikhohlise. Angeke alikhulule.
— «Padixaⱨ mundaⱪ dǝydu: — Ⱨǝzǝkiya silǝrni aldap ⱪoymisun! Qünki u silǝrni [padixaⱨning] ⱪolidin ⱪutⱪuzalmaydu.
30 Lingamvumeli uHezekhiya elincenga ukuba lithembe kuThixo lapho esithi, ‘Ngempela uThixo uzasikhulula; idolobho leli kaliyikuphiwa esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya.’
Uning silǝrni: — «Pǝrwǝrdigar bizni jǝzmǝn ⱪutⱪuzidu; muxu xǝⱨǝr Asuriyǝ padixaⱨining ⱪoliƣa qüxüp kǝtmǝydu» dǝp Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa tayanduruxiƣa yol ⱪoymanglar!
31 Lingamlaleli uHezekhiya. Nanku okutshiwo yinkosi yase-Asiriya: Yenza isivumelwano sokuthula lami, uphume uze kimi. Lapho-ke omunye lomunye uzakudla esivinini sakhe lasemkhiweni wakhe anathe lamanzi emthonjeni wakhe,
Ⱨǝzǝkiyaƣa ⱪulaⱪ salmanglar; qünki Asuriyǝ padixaⱨi mundaⱪ dǝydu: — Mǝn bilǝn sülⱨilixip, mǝn tǝrǝpkǝ ɵtünglar; xundaⱪ ⱪilsanglar ⱨǝrbiringlar ɵzünglarning üzüm baringidin ⱨǝm ɵzünglarning ǝnjür dǝrihidin mewǝ yǝysilǝr, ⱨǝrbiringlar ɵz su kɵlqikinglardin su iqisilǝr;
32 ngize ngifike ngilithathe, ngilise elizweni elifanana lelakini, ilizwe lamabele lewayini elitsha, ilizwe lesinkwa lezivini, ilizwe lezihlahla zama-oliva loluju. Khethani impilo hatshi ukufa, Lingamlaleli uHezekhiya, ngoba uyalikhohlisa nxa esithi, ‘UThixo uzasikhulula.’
ta mǝn kelip silǝrni buƣdayliⱪ ⱨǝm xarabliⱪ bir zeminƣa, neni, üzümzarliri wǝ zǝytun dǝrǝhliri bar, ⱨǝsǝl qiⱪiridiƣan bir zeminƣa, yǝni zemininglarƣa ohxax bir zeminƣa apirip ⱪoyƣuqǝ yǝp-iqiweringlar! Xuning bilǝn silǝr tirik ⱪelip, ɵlmǝysilǝr! Ⱨǝzǝkiya silǝrgǝ: — «Pǝrwǝrdigar bizni ⱪutⱪuzidu» desǝ uningƣa ⱪulaⱪ salmanglar!
33 Kambe ukhona unkulunkulu wesinye isizwe osewake wakhulula ilizwe lakhe esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya na?
Əl-yurtlarning ilaⱨ-butlirining biri ɵz zeminini Asuriyǝ padixaⱨining ⱪolidin ⱪutⱪuzƣanmu?
34 Bangaphi onkulunkulu baseHamathi le-Ariphadi na? Bangaphi onkulunkulu baseSefavayimi labaseHena labase-Iva na? Bayikhululile iSamariya esandleni sami na?
Hamat wǝ Arpad degǝn yurtlarning ilaⱨ-butliri ⱪeni? Sǝfarwaim, Hena wǝ Iwwaⱨ xǝⱨǝrlirining ilaⱨ-butliri ⱪeni? Ular Samariyǝni mening ⱪolumdin ⱪutⱪuzƣanmu?!
35 Nguphi kubo bonke onkulunkulu bamazwe la oke wenelisa ukukhulula ilizwe lakhe kimi na? Pho uThixo angayikhulula njani iJerusalema esandleni sami na?”
Muxu ǝl-yurtlarning ilaⱨ-butliridin ɵz zeminini ⱪutⱪuzƣan zadi kim bar? Xundaⱪ ikǝn, Pǝrwǝrdigar Yerusalemni mening ⱪolumdin ⱪutⱪuzalamdu?» — dedi.
36 Kodwa abantu bathula kabazange batsho lutho, ngoba inkosi yayilaye yathi, “Lingamphenduli.”
Əmma hǝlⱪ süküt ⱪilip uningƣa jawabǝn ⱨeqⱪandaⱪ bir sɵz ⱪilmidi; qünki padixaⱨning buyruⱪi xuki: — «Uningƣa jawab bǝrmǝnglar».
37 U-Eliyakhimu indodana kaHilikhiya umgcini wesigodlo loShebhina umabhalane loJowa indodana ka-Asafi umbhali, baya kuHezekhiya izigqoko zabo zidabukile bamtshela okwakutshiwo ngumlawuli webutho.
Andin Ⱨilⱪiyaning oƣli, ordini baxⱪuridiƣan Eliakim, orda diwanbegi Xǝbna wǝ Asafning oƣli, orda mirzibegi Yoaⱨlar kiyim-keqǝklirini yirtixip, Ⱨǝzǝkiyaning yeniƣa kelip, Rab-Xakǝⱨning gǝplirini uningƣa uⱪturdi.
