1 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lane wokubusa kwenkosi uHezekhiya, uSenakheribhi inkosi yase-Asiriya wahlasela wonke amadolobho avikelweyo akoJuda wawathumba.
In yac aksingoul akosr ke Hezekiah el tokosra lun Judah, Sennacherib, Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, el mweuni siti nukewa lun Judah ma potiyukyak, ac eisla.
2 Emva kwalokho inkosi yase-Asiriya yathuma umlawuli wayo lebutho elikhulu lisuka eLakhishi lisiya enkosini uHezekhiya eJerusalema. Kwathi umlawuli webutho esemi emgelweni wechibi elingaphezulu, elisendleleni eya eNsimini yoMgezisi,
Na el sap sie mwet kol fulat lal in som liki Lachish nu Jerusalem ac us sie un mwet mweun lulap, in sap Tokosra Hezekiah elan srasrapo ac tia mweun. Mwet leum se inge el som muta ke inkanek yen mwet orek nuknuk muta we, sisken laf ma use kof liki lulu se ma oan tafunyen lucng.
3 u-Eliyakhimu indodana kaHilikhiya umgcini wesigodlo, loShebhina umabhalane kanye loJowa indodana ka-Asafi umbhali, baya kuye.
Mwet Judah tolu tufokme in sonol — elos pa Eliakim wen natul Hilkiah, su mwet liyaung inkul sin tokosra; Shebna, mwet sim ke inkul sin tokosra; ac Joah wen natul Asaph, su liyaung ma simusla.
4 Umlawuli webutho wathi kubo, “Tshelani uHezekhiya ukuthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo yinkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya ithi: Uthembeni ngalesisibindi sakho na?
Na mwet kol fulat lun mwet Assyria el fahk nu seltal lah Tokosra Fulat el ke etu lah mea Tokosra Hezekiah el kukin uh.
5 Uthi ulamaqhinga lamandla ebutho kodwa ukhuluma amazwi ayize. Uthembe bani uze ungihlamukele nje?
El fahk ouinge, “Ku kowos nunku mu kas uh ku in sang alein ku lulap ac pisrla ke mweun? Su kowos lulalfongi mu ac kasrekowos lain acn Assyria?
6 Khangela, ngiyazi uthembe iGibhithe, yona enjengomhlanga ozimvava osika isandla somuntu umlimaze nxa eweyamile. Unjalo uFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe kubo bonke abathembele kuye.
Kowos lulalfongi mu acn Egypt ac kasrekowos, tuh fin ouinge ac oana ke kowos sikalkin loa — ac mau kaptelik ac kanteya pouwos. Pa ingan luman tokosra lun Egypt nu sin mwet su tupan kasru sel uh.”
7 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”?
Na mwet kol fulat sac lun mwet Assyria el tafwela ac fahk, “Ku kowos ac fahk nu sik lah kowos ac lulalfongi na LEUM GOD lowos? Nien alu sin LEUM GOD ac loang lal pa Hezekiah el tuh kunausla ke el fahk nu sin mwet Judah ac Jerusalem elos in alu ke loang sefanna.
8 Khathesi woza wenze isivumelwano lenkosi yami, inkosi yase-Asiriya: Ngizakunika amabhiza azinkulungwane ezimbili nxa bekhona abazawagada!
Nga ac oru sie pwapa nu suwos inen Tokosra Fulat. Nga ac sot nu suwos tausin luo ke horse kowos fin ku in konauk pisen mwet ma ac fal in kasrusr fac.
9 Pho ungayehlula njani induna eyodwa yezikhulu ezincane zenkosi yami, lanxa uthembele eGibhithe ekutholeni izinqola zempi labagadi bamabhiza na?
Finne mwet ma srik emeet wal la sin mwet leum lun Assyria, kowos tia apkuran in lainulos. Ne ouinge kowos finsrak mu mwet Egypt ac supwama chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse nu suwos.
10 Phezu kwalokho, kanti ngizehlasela lokuzochitha ilizwe leli kungatshongo uThixo na? UThixo uqobo nguye othe ngizohlasela ilizwe leli ngilichithe.’”
Ya kowos nunku mu nga mweuni facl suwos ac kunausla sayen kasru sin LEUM GOD? LEUM GOD sifacna El fahk nu sik in mweuni ac kunausla.”
11 Ngakho u-Eliyakhimu loShebhina loJowa bathi kumlawuli webutho, “Ake ukhulume ezincekwini zakho ngesi-Aramayikhi ngoba siyasizwa. Ungasikhulumisi ngesiHebheru lababantu abasemdulini besizwa.”
Na Eliakim, Shebna ac Joah fahk nu sin mwet kol sac, “Kaskas nu sesr ke kas Aramaic. Kut kalem na kac. Nimet kas Hebrew — mwet nukewa fin pot uh lohng na ma kom fahk an.”
12 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?”
Ac el topuk, “Mea, komtal nunku mu komtal ac tokosra mukena pa Tokosra Fulat el supweyume ngan fahk ma inge nu se uh? Mo, nga tuku in fahk pac nu sin mwet ma muta fin pot uh, su ac fah kang fohk lalos ac nim kifwalos oana ke kowos ac mau oru uh.”
13 Umlawuli webutho wasukuma wasememeza ngesiHebheru esithi, “Zwanini amazwi enkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya!
Na mwet kol fulat sac tuyak ac wowoyak ke kas Hebrew, “Lohng ma Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el fahk nu suwos.
14 Lokhu yikho okutshiwo yinkosi: Lingamvumeli uHezekhiya ukuba alikhohlise. Angeke alikhulule.
El sensenkakin kowos tuh kowos in tia lela Hezekiah elan kiapwekowos. Hezekiah el tia ku in molikowosla.
15 Lingamvumeli uHezekhiya elincenga ukuba lithembele kuThixo lapho esithi ‘Ngempela uThixo uzasikhulula; idolobho leli kaliyikuphiwa esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya.’”
Ac nimet lela elan furokkowosla in lulalfongi ke LEUM GOD. Nimet nunku mu LEUM GOD El ac molikowos, ac sikulya un mwet mweun lun Assyria in tia sruokya siti suwos an.
16 Lingamlaleli uHezekhiya. Nanku okutshiwo yinkosi yase-Asiriya: Yenza isivumelwano sokuthula lami, uphume uze kimi. Lapho-ke omunye lomunye uzakudla esivinini sakhe lasemikhiweni yakhe, anathe lamanzi emthonjeni wakhe,
Nimet lohngol Hezekiah! Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el sap kowos in ilme liki siti an ac srasrapo. Kowos nukewa ac filfilla in mongo grape ke ima lowos sifacna ac fig ke sak sunowos sifacna, ac in nim kof ke lufin kof lowos sifacna —
17 ngize ngifike ngilithathe, ngilise elizweni elifanana lelakini, ilizwe lamabele lewayini elitsha, ilizwe lesinkwa lezivini.
nwe ke na Tokosra Fulat lasr el sifilpa oaki kowos in sie facl ma oapana acn suwos, acn ma oasr ima in grape in orala wain, ac wheat mwe orek bread.
18 “Lingavumeli uHezekhiya ukuthi alikhohlise esithi, ‘UThixo uzasikhulula.’ Kulonkulunkulu wesinye isizwe osewake wakhulula ilizwe lakhe esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya na?
Nimet lela Hezekiah elan kiapwekowos in nunku mu LEUM GOD El ac molikowosla. Ya god lun mutunfacl saya uh nu molelosla liki poun Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria?
19 Bangaphi onkulunkulu baseHamathi le-Ariphadi na? Bangaphi onkulunkulu baseSefavayimi na? Bayikhululile iSamariya esandleni sami na?
God lun Hamath ac Arpad elos oasr oya inge? Ac pia god lun Sepharvaim? Ya oasr selos tuh molela acn Samaria?
20 Nguphi kubo bonke onkulunkulu bamazwe la oke wenelisa ukukhulula ilizwe lakhe kimi na? Pho uThixo angayikhulula njani iJerusalema esandleni sami na?”
Ya oasr pacl se sie sin god lun mutunfacl inge nu molelosla liki Tokosra Fulat lasr uh? Na mea se oru kowos in nunku mu LEUM GOD El ku in molela acn Jerusalem?”
21 Kodwa abantu bathula kabazange batsho lutho, ngoba inkosi yayilaye yathi, “Lingamphenduli.”
Mwet uh mislana tia kas, oana ke Tokosra Hezekiah el sapkin nu selos. Elos tiana topuk sie kas.
22 U-Eliyakhimu indodana kaHilikhiya umgcini wesigodlo loShebhina umabhalane loJowa indodana ka-Asafi umbhali, baya kuHezekhiya izigqoko zabo zidabukile bamtshela okwakutshiwo ngumlawuli webutho.
Na Eliakim, Shebna ac Joah seya nuknuk lalos ke asor, ac som fahkak nu sin tokosra ma mwet kol fulat lun Assyria el fahk ah.
