2 Amakhosi 19
1 Kwasekusithi lapho inkosi uHezekhiya isizwile, yadabula izigqoko zayo, yazembesa ngesaka, yangena endlini yeNkosi.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ki ai ʻe Hesekaia, naʻa ne haehae hono kofu, pea kofuʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa, pea hū ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
2 Yasithuma uEliyakhimi owayephezu kwendlu, loShebina umabhalane, labadala babapristi, bembeswe ngamasaka kuIsaya umprofethi indodana kaAmozi.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe ia ʻa Iliakimi, ʻaia naʻe pule ki he fale, mo Sepina ko e tangata tohi, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, kuo kofuʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa kia ʻIsaia ko e palōfita ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi.
3 Basebesithi kuye: Utsho njalo uHezekhiya: Lolusuku lusuku lohlupho lolokusolwa lolokweyiswa; ngoba abantwana sebefikile emlonyeni wesizalo, kanti kakulamandla okubeletha.
Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Hesekaia, Ko e ʻaho ni ko e ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, mo e tautea, mo e kape: he kuo haʻu ʻae fānau ki he fāʻele, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha mālohi ke fāʻeleʻi.
4 Mhlawumbe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho izakuzwa wonke amazwi kaRabi-Shake, inkosi yeAsiriya inkosi yakhe eyamthumayo, ukuthi aklolodele uNkulunkulu ophilayo; njalo izasola amazwi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ewezwileyo: Ngakho phakamiselani insali etholakeleyo umkhuleko.
Heiʻilo ʻe lelei kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ke ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻa Lapisake, ʻaia kuo fekau ʻe heʻene ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ke manukiʻi ʻae ʻOtua moʻui: pea ke ne valoki ʻae ngaahi lea ʻaia kuo ongoʻi ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: ko ia ke ke hiki hake hoʻo lotu koeʻuhi ko e kakai ʻoku toe.”
5 Izinceku zenkosi uHezekhiya zasezifika kuIsaya.
Ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Hesekaia kia ʻIsaia.
6 UIsaya wasesithi kuzo: Lizakutsho njalo enkosini yenu: Utsho njalo uJehova: Ungesabi amazwi owezwileyo inceku zenkosi yeAsiriya ezingithuke ngawo.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIsaia kiate kinautolu, “Te mou tala pehē ki hoʻomou ʻeiki, ʻoku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē ki he ngaahi lea kuo ke ongoʻi, ʻaia kuo kape ʻaki kiate au ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia.
7 Khangela, ngizafaka umoya kuyo, njalo izakuzwa ihungahunga, ibuyele elizweni layo; ngizayenza ukuthi iwe ngenkemba elizweni layo.
Vakai, Te u tuku atu kiate ia ha tuʻoni matangi, pea te ne ongoʻi ha ongoongo, pea ʻe toe ʻalu ia ki hono fonua; pea te u pule ke tō ia ʻi he heletā ʻi hono fonua ʻoʻona.”
8 URabi-Shake wasebuyela, wafica inkosi yeAsiriya isilwa imelene leLibhina; ngoba wayezwile ukuthi isisukile eLakishi.
Ko ia, naʻe toe ʻalu ʻa Lapisake, ʻo ne hoko ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia lolotonga ʻa ʻene tauʻi ʻa Lipina: he naʻe fanongo ʻe ia kuo ʻalu ia mei Lakisi.
9 Kwathi isizwa ngoTirihaka inkosi yeEthiyophiya kuthiwa: Khangela, uphumile ukuyakulwa emelene lawe, yabuya yathuma izithunywa kuHezekhiya, isithi:
Pea ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻae ongoongo kia Tilaka ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻItiopea, Vakai, kuo haʻu kituaʻā ia ke tauʻi koe; naʻe toe fekau ʻe ia ʻene kau talafekau kia Hesekaia, ʻo pehē,
10 Lizakhuluma kanje kuHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda, lithi: UNkulunkulu wakho omthembileyo kangakukhohlisi esithi: IJerusalema kayiyikunikelwa esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya.
“Te mou lea kia Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, ʻOua naʻa tuku ke kākaaʻi koe ʻe ho ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ke falala ki ai, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai tukuange ʻa Selūsalema ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia.’
11 Khangela, wena usuzwile ukuthi amakhosi eAsiriya enzeni kuwo wonke amazwe, ngokuwatshabalalisa. Wena-ke uzakhululwa yini?
Vakai, kuo ke fanongo ki he meʻa kuo fai ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ki he fonua kotoa pē, ʻi he fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu: pea te ke hao koe?
12 Onkulunkulu bezizwe bazikhululile yini, obaba abazichithayo, iGozani leHarani leRezefi labantwana bakaEdeni ababeseTelasari?
He naʻe fakamoʻui ʻe he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻakinautolu naʻe fakaʻauha ʻe heʻeku ngaahi tamai: ko Kosani, mo Halani, mo Lesefi, mo e ngaahi fānau ʻa Iteni ʻaia naʻe ʻi Tilasa?
13 Ingaphi inkosi yeHamathi, lenkosi yeArpadi, lenkosi yomuzi weSefavayimi, iHena, leIva?
Kofaʻā ia ʻae tuʻi ʻo Hemati, mo e tuʻi ʻo ʻApati, mo e tuʻi ʻoe kolo ko Sifaveimi, ʻo Hena, mo Iva?”
14 UHezekhiya waseyemukela incwadi esandleni sezithunywa, wayibala, wasesenyukela endlini yeNkosi, uHezekhiya wayichaya phambi kweNkosi.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Hesekaia ʻae tohi ʻi he nima ʻae kau fekau ʻo ne lau ia: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa Hesekaia ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa ne folahi ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
15 UHezekhiya wasekhuleka phambi kweNkosi, wathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ohlala phakathi kwamakherubhi, wena unguNkulunkulu, wena wedwa, wayo yonke imibuso yomhlaba; wena wenze amazulu lomhlaba.
Pea naʻe lotu ʻa Hesekaia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻoku ke ʻafio ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ongo selupi, ko koe ko e ʻOtua, ʻio, ʻa koe pe, ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo māmani; kuo ke fakatupu ʻe koe ʻae langi mo māmani.
16 Nkosi, thoba indlebe yakho, uzwe, Nkosi, vula amehlo akho, ubone; uzwe amazwi kaSenakheribi amthume ngawo ukuklolodela uNkulunkulu ophilayo.
ʻE Sihova, punou hifo ho fofonga, pea ke fakafanongo: ʻe Sihova fakaʻā ho fofonga, pea ke ʻafioʻi: pea ongoʻi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa Senakalipe, ʻaia kuo ne fekau mai ia ke lea kovi ai ki he ʻOtua moʻui.
17 Qiniso, Nkosi, amakhosi eAsiriya azichithile izizwe lelizwe lazo,
Ko e moʻoni, ʻe Sihova, kuo fakaʻauha ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga mo honau ngaahi fonua.
18 aphosela onkulunkulu bazo emlilweni; ngoba babengeyisibo onkulunkulu, kodwa umsebenzi wezandla zabantu, izigodo lamatshe; ngakho bababhubhisa.
Pea kuo nau lī honau ngaahi ʻotua ki he afi: he naʻe ʻikai ko e ʻotua ʻakinautolu, ka ko e ngāue ʻae nima ʻoe tangata, ko e ʻakau mo e maka: ko ia kuo nau fakaʻauha ai ʻakinautolu.
19 Ngakho-ke, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wethu, ngicela usisindise esandleni sakhe, ukuze yonke imibuso yomhlaba yazi ukuthi wena uyiNkosi uNkulunkulu, wena wedwa.
Pea ko eni, ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei hono nima, koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ko koe ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻio ko koe pe.”
20 UIsaya indodana kaAmozi wasethumela kuHezekhiya esithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli: Lokho okukhuleke kimi mayelana loSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya ngikuzwile.
Pea naʻe toki fekau ai ʻe ʻIsaia ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi kia Hesekaia ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Ko ia kuo ke lotu ai kiate au kia Senakalipe ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia kuo u ongoʻi.
21 Yileli ilizwi iNkosi elikhulume mayelana laye: Intombi emsulwa, indodakazi yeZiyoni, iyakudelela, iyakuklolodela; indodakazi yeJerusalema inikina ikhanda ngemva kwakho.
Pea ko e lea eni ʻaia kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova kiate ia: Ko e tāupoʻou ko e taʻahine ʻa Saione ʻoku ne manukiʻi koe, pea katakata lumaʻi koe; kuo kalokalo ʻe he taʻahine ʻo Selūsalema ʻa hono ʻulu kiate koe.
22 Ngubani omeyisileyo wamhlambaza? Njalo uphakamisele bani ilizwi, waphakamisela amehlo akho phezulu? Umelene loNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
Ko hai ia naʻa ke manukiʻi mo kapekape ki ai? Pea naʻa ke hiki ho leʻo pea tangaki hake ho mata ki ʻolunga kia hai? ʻIo, ki he [Toko Taha ]Māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.
23 Ngesandla sezithunywa zakho uyeyisile iNkosi, wathi: Ngobunengi bezinqola zami ngenyuke indawo ephezulu yezintaba, inhlangothi zeLebhanoni. Ngizagamula imisedari yayo emide, lamafiri ayo akhethekileyo. Ngizangena endaweni yokuhlala yamaphethelo ayo, igusu eliminyeneyo.
ʻI hoʻo kau talafekau kuo ke manukiʻi ʻa Sihova, mo ke pehē, Kuo u hoko ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi saliote ki he māʻolunga ʻo hono ngaahi moʻunga, ki he ngaahi tafaʻaki ʻo Lepanoni, pea te u tā ke hinga ʻae ngaahi sita lōloa ʻo ia, mo e ngaahi ʻakau matamatalelei ʻo ia ko e paini: pea te u hū ki he ngaahi fale nofoʻanga ʻo ia, pea ki he vaoʻakau ʻo hono Kameli.
24 Mina ngagebha nganatha amanzi angaziwayo, langengaphansi yenyawo zami ngomisa yonke imifula yezindawo ezivinjelweyo.
Kuo u keli peau inu ʻae ngaahi vai kehe, pea kuo u fakamomoa ʻaki hoku ʻaofi vaʻe ʻae ngaahi vaitafe ʻoe ngaahi potu naʻe kapui ʻaki ʻae tau.
25 Kawuzwanga yini ukuthi ngakwenza endulo, ngakubumba ensukwini zendulo. Khathesi ngikufikisile, ukuthi ube ngowokudiliza imizi evikelweyo ibe zinqumbi zamanxiwa.
Naʻe ʻikai te ke fanongo talu mei muʻa, Ko au naʻaku fai ia, pea talu mei muʻa naʻaku fakafuofua ia? Pea ko eni kuo u fakahoko ia, koeʻuhi ke ke fakalala ʻae ngaahi kolotau pea ngaohi ia ko e ngaahi potu ngaongao pe.
26 Ngakho abahlali bayo babelesandla esifitshane, besaba babe lenhloni, baba njengotshani beganga lemibhida eluhlaza, utshani bempahla, lamabele ahanguliweyo engakami.
Ko ia naʻe siʻi ai ʻae mālohi ʻo honau kakai, naʻa nau lilika ai mo puputuʻu; naʻa nau tatau mo e mohuku ʻoe ngoue, pea hangē ko e ʻakau mata, ʻo hangē ko e mohuku ʻi he ngaahi tuʻa fale, pea hangē ko e uite kuo mahunu ʻi he teʻeki tupu hake.
27 Kodwa ngiyakwazi ukuhlala kwakho lokuphuma kwakho lokungena kwakho lokungithukuthelela kwakho.
Ka ʻoku ou ʻilo ho nofoʻanga, mo ho fehufaki ki loto mo tuʻa, mo hoʻo lili kiate au.
28 Ngenxa yokungithukuthelela kwakho, lokuthi umsindo wakho wenyukele endlebeni zami, ngizafaka umkhala wami emakhaleni akho, letomu lami endebeni zakho, ngikwenze ubuyele ngendlela oweza ngayo.
Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene hoko hake ʻa hoʻo lili mo hoʻo maveuveu ki hoku telinga, ko ia te u ʻai ai ʻa ʻeku mataʻu ki ho ihu, mo ʻeku meʻa taʻofi ki ho loungutu, pea te u fakatafoki koe ʻi he hala ʻaia naʻa ke haʻu ai.”
29 Lokhu-ke kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kuwe; lonyaka uzakudla okuzikhulelayo, langomnyaka wesibili umkhukhuzela, kuthi ngomnyaka wesithathu lihlanyele livune, lihlanyele izivini lidle izithelo zazo.
Pea ko e fakaʻilonga eni kiate koe, “Te mou kai ʻi he taʻu ni ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻe tupu vao pe, pea ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻae meʻa ʻoku tupu mei ai; pea ʻi hono tolu ʻoe taʻu, mou tūtuuʻi, pea tuʻusi, pea tō ngoue vaine, pea kai hono ngaahi fua ʻo ia.
30 Lokuphephileyo kwendlu yakoJuda okuseleyo kuzaphinda kugxumeke impande phansi, kuthele izithelo ngaphezulu.
Pea ko e toenga kakai kuo hao ʻi he fale ʻo Siuta ʻe toe aka ia ʻo ʻalu hifo, pea tupu ai ʻae fua ʻi ʻolunga.
31 Ngoba kuzaphuma eJerusalema insali, lokuphephileyo entabeni yeZiyoni. Ukutshiseka kweNkosi yamabandla kuzakwenza lokhu.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻalu atu mei Selūsalema ha toenga kakai, mo kinautolu ʻe hao mei he moʻunga ko Saione: ko e feinga ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi te ne feia ʻae meʻa ni.
32 Ngakho utsho njalo uJehova ngenkosi yeAsiriya: Kayiyikungena kulumuzi, kayiyikutshoka umtshoko khona, kayiyikuza phambi kwawo ilesihlangu, kayiyikubuthelela idundulu maqondana lawo.
Ko ia, ʻoku folofola pehē ʻa Sihova ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ‘ʻE ʻikai hū ia ki he kolo ni, pe fana ki ai ha ngahau ʻe taha, pe hoko mai ki ai ʻaki ʻae pā, pe te ne tanu puke ki ai.
33 Ngendlela eyeza ngayo, ngayo izabuyela, kayiyikungena kulo umuzi, itsho iNkosi.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻi he hala ko ia naʻa ne haʻu ai, ko ia ia te ne toe ʻalu ai, pea ʻe ʻikai hū ia ki he kolo ni.
34 Ngoba ngizawuvikela lumuzi ukuwusindisa, ngenxa yami, langenxa kaDavida inceku yami.
He te u maluʻi ʻae kolo ni, ke fakamoʻui ia, koeʻuhi ko au, pea koeʻuhi ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita.’”
35 Kwasekusithi ngalobobusuku ingilosi yeNkosi yaphuma yatshaya enkambeni yamaAsiriya izinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lanhlanu. Lapho bevuka ekuseni kakhulu, khangela, bonke babeyizidumbu ezifileyo.
Pea ʻi he hokosia ʻae pō ko ia, naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻi he ʻapitanga ʻae kakai ʻAsilia, ko e tokotaha kilu mo e toko valu mano, mo e toko nima afe: pea ʻi heʻenau tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻi he ʻapongipongi, ʻiloange ko e kakai mate ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.
36 Ngakho uSenakheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wasuka wahamba wabuyela, wahlala eNineve.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Senakalipe, pea ʻalu ia ʻo liliu ʻo nofo ʻi Ninive.
37 Kwasekusithi ekhonza endlini kaNisiroki unkulunkulu wakhe, oAdrameleki loSharezeri amadodana akhe bamtshaya ngenkemba, bona baphephela elizweni leArarathi. UEsarihadoni indodana yakhe wasebusa esikhundleni sakhe.
Pea ʻi heʻene lotu ʻi he fale ʻo Nisiloki ko hono ʻotua, naʻe taaʻi ia ʻe ʻAtalameleki mo Salesa, ko hono ongo foha, ʻaki ʻae heletā: pea naʻa na hola ki he fonua ko ʻAminia. Pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Esa-Hatoni ko hono foha.
