< U-Isaya 39 >
1 Ngalesosikhathi uMerodakhi-Bhaladani indodana kaBhaladani inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, wathumela izincwadi lesipho kuHezekhiya, ngoba wayezwile ngokugula kwakhe lokusila kwakhe.
Hiche phat chomkhat jouvin, Baladan chapa Merodach-baladan Babylon lengpan, Hezekiah chu deisahna thuthot leh thilpeh ho athotnin ahi. Aman Hezekiah chu nasatah in anadam mon, tun adamdoh tai tithu ana jah ahi.
2 UHezekhiya wazamukela izithunywa ngokuthaba, wazitshengisa okwakusendlini yakhe yokugcinela impahla, isiliva, igolide, iziyoliso, amafutha acengekileyo, izikhali zakhe zonke, lakho konke okwakukhona enothweni yakhe. Akulalutho esigodlweni sakhe loba embusweni wakhe wonke angazitshengisanga khona.
Babylon akon'a hung palai ho chunga Hezekiah akipah lheh jengin, athikhol na mun jouse avetsah soh keijin-sana, dangka, gouho leh thao namtiu ho. Gal manchah kikoina ho vedin apui kitnin, leng thilkholna jouse avetsah soh keijin ahi! Hezekiah in leng inpi sung hihen lang, lenggam sung hijong leh avetsah lou a umpon ahi.
3 Ngakho u-Isaya umphrofethi waya kuHezekhiya inkosi wambuza wathi, “Atheni amadoda lawana, njalo avela ngaphi?” UHezekhiya waphendula wathi, “Avela elizweni elikhatshana. Aze kimi evela eBhabhiloni.”
Hichun themgao Isaiah chu Hezekiah lengpa kom'a achen, a dongtan ahi. “Hiche miho hin ipi angaichat uham? Hoilai akon'a hung hiuva ham? Hezekiah in adonbut in, “Amaho hi gamla tah aum Babylon'a kon hung ahiuve.”
4 Umphrofethi wabuza wathi, “Aboneni esigodlweni sakho?” UHezekhiya wathi, “Abone konke okusesigodlweni sami. Akulalutho phakathi kwempahla zami eziligugu engingawatshengisanga khona.”
“Leng inpi sunga chu ipi pi amu uvem?” tin Isaiah in adongin ahi. “Imajouse amu soh keijuve,” tin Hezekiah in adonbut in, “Kanei jouse- thilkholna jouse kavetsah soh keijin ahi: ati.
5 Ngakho u-Isaya wasesithi kuHezekhiya, “Zwana ilizwi likaThixo uSomandla lithi:
Hichun Isaiah in Hezekiah hnga aseitan, “Van Janel Pakai in thuhil nahin thot hi ngaijin:
6 Isikhathi sizafika sibili lapho konke okusesigodlweni sakho lakho konke oyihlo abakugcinayo kusiyafika lolosuku, kuzathwalelwa eBhabhiloni. Akuyikusala lutho, kutsho uThixo.
'Phat ahung lhunge, leng inpi a'um umajouse-napu napa gou anakhol jouse leh tua na kikhol tup jouseu, Babylon'a poh doh gam ding ahitai. Imacha kidalha lou ding ahi, tin Pakai in aseije.
7 Njalo abanye besizukulwane sakho, abenyama legazi lakho, abazazalwa nguwe, bazathathwa bayekuba ngabathenwa esigodlweni senkosi yaseBhabhiloni.”
'Na chateu pasal phabep puimang umdiu ahi. Amaho chu Babylon lengpa insunga nukiso'a pangu va, mi jenle'a umdiu ahi.”
8 UHezekhiya waphendula wathi, “Ilizwi likaThixo olikhulumileyo lilungile.” Ngoba wayenakana esithi, “Kuzakuba lokuthula lokuvikeleka ekuphileni kwami.”
Hichun Hezekiah in Isaiah henga aseijin “Hichu thuhil Pakai'a kon'a neipeh hi aphaleh jenge.” Ajehchu lengpan ageldan chu, “Ka hin sunga hi chamna leh bitna umding ahinai,” ti ahi.
