2 Amakhosi 20
1 Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagula okokufa. UIsaya indodana kaAmozi umprofethi wasefika kuye wathi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Laya indlu yakho, ngoba uzakufa, kawuyikuphila.
A kwanakin nan sai Hezekiya ya kamu da rashin lafiya har ya kusa mutuwa. Sai annabi Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya zo wurinsa ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ka kintsa gidanka domin za ka mutu, ba za ka warke ba.”
2 Wasephendulela ubuso bakhe emdulini, wakhuleka eNkosini esithi:
Hezekiya ya juya fuskarsa wajen bango ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji ya ce,
3 Ngiyakuncenga Nkosi, ake ukhumbule ukuthi ngihambe phambi kwakho ngobuqotho langenhliziyo epheleleyo, ngenza okulungileyo emehlweni akho. UHezekhiya wasekhala inyembezi ngokukhala okukhulu.
“Ya Ubangiji, ka tuna yadda na yi tafiya a gabanka da aminci da zuciya ɗaya, na kuma aikata abin da yake daidai a gabanka.” Sai Hezekiya ya yi kuka mai zafi.
4 Kwasekusithi uIsaya engakaphumi egumeni elingaphakathi, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuye lisithi:
Kafin Ishaya yă bar tsakiyar filin gida, sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo masa cewa,
5 Buyela uthi kuHezekhiya umbusi wabantu bami: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaDavida uyihlo: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho, ngabona inyembezi zakho; khangela, ngizakusilisa; ngosuku lwesithathu uzakwenyukela endlini yeNkosi.
“Ka koma ka ce wa Hezekiya, shugaban mutanena, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Allah na mahaifinka Dawuda ya ce, na ji addu’arka na kuma ga hawayenka; zan warkar da kai. A rana ta uku daga yau za ka haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji.
6 Njalo ngizakwengezelela iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu ensukwini zakho; ngikukhulule wena lalumuzi esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya; ngiwuvikele lumuzi ngenxa yami langenxa yenceku yami uDavida.
Zan ƙara maka shekara goma sha biyar. Zan kuma cece ka daga hannun sarkin Assuriya. Zan kāre birnin nan saboda kaina da kuma bawana Dawuda.’”
7 UIsaya wasesithi: Thathani isigaqa somkhiwa. Basebesithatha, basifaka phezu kwethumba, yasisila.
Sai Ishaya ya ce, “A kwaɓa ɓaure.” Sai aka yi haka, aka shafa wa marurun, ya kuma warke.
8 UHezekhiya wasesithi kuIsaya: Yisiphi isibonakaliso sokuthi iNkosi izangisilisa, lokuthi ngizakwenyukela endlini yeNkosi ngosuku lwesithathu?
Hezekiya ya tambayi Ishaya, “Wace alama ce za tă nuna cewa Ubangiji zai warkar da ni, kuma cewa in tafi haikalin Ubangiji kwana uku daga yanzu?”
9 UIsaya wasesithi: Lesi yisibonakaliso kuwe esivela eNkosini esokuthi iNkosi izayenza into eyikhulumileyo: Isithunzi sizakuya phambili izinyathelo ezilitshumi, loba siye emuva izinyathelo ezilitshumi yini?
Sai Ishaya ya ce, “Ga alamar Ubangiji zuwa gare ka da za tă nuna cewa Ubangiji zai cika alkawarinsa. Kana so inuwa tă yi gaba da taki goma, ko tă koma baya da taki goma?”
10 UHezekhiya wasesithi: Kulula esithunzini ukuthi selule izinyathelo ezilitshumi; hatshi, kodwa isithunzi kasibuyele emuva izinyathelo ezilitshumi.
“Ai, abu mai sauƙi ne inuwa tă yi gaba da taki goma.” In ji Hezekiya, “Gwamma dai tă koma baya da taki goma.”
11 UIsaya umprofethi wasekhala eNkosini, yasibuyisela emuva isithunzi, ngezinyathelo esasehle ngazo esikhwelweni sikaAhazi, izinyathelo ezilitshumi emuva.
Sai annabi Ishaya ya roƙi Ubangiji, Ubangiji kuwa ya sa inuwa ta koma baya da taki goma bisa ga magwajin rana wanda Sarki Ahaz ya gina.
12 Ngalesosikhathi uMerodaki-Baladani indodana kaBaladani, inkosi yeBhabhiloni, wathumela izincwadi lesipho kuHezekhiya, ngoba wayezwile ukuthi uHezekhiya ubekade egula.
A wannan lokaci, Merodak-Baladan ɗan Baladan sarkin Babilon ya aika wa Hezekiya wasiƙu tare da kyauta, domin ya sami labarin rashin lafiyar Hezekiya.
13 UHezekhiya wabalalela, wabatshengisa yonke indlu yakhe yezinto eziligugu, isiliva legolide lamakha lamafutha amahle lendlu yezikhali zakhe, lakho konke okwakutholakala endlini yakhe yokuligugu; kakulalutho endlini yakhe lembusweni wonke wakhe uHezekhiya angabatshengisanga lona.
Hezekiya ya karɓi jakadun, ya nuna musu dukan abin da yake a ɗakunan ajiyarsa, azurfa, zinariya, kayan ƙanshi da mai, wurin ajiye makamansa da kuma dukan abin da aka samu a ɗakin ajiyarsa. Babu wani abu a fadansa ko a dukan mulkinsa da Hezekiya bai nuna musu ba.
14 UIsaya umprofethi wasesiza enkosini uHezekhiya wathi kiyo: Batheni lababantu? Futhi bebevela ngaphi besiza kuwe? UHezekhiya wasesithi: Bebevela elizweni elikhatshana, eBhabhiloni.
Sai annabi Ishaya ya tafi wurin Sarki Hezekiya ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Me mutanen nan suka ce, kuma daga ina suka fito?” Sai Hezekiya ya ce, “Daga ƙasa mai nisa. Daga Babilon.”
15 Wasesithi: Baboneni endlini yakho? UHezekhiya wasesithi: Babone konke okusendlini yami; kakulalutho phakathi kokuligugu kwami engingabatshengisanga khona.
Annabin ya yi tambaya, “Me suka gani a fadanka?” Hezekiya ya ce, “Ba abin da yake a ma’ajina da ban nuna musu ba.”
16 UIsaya wasesithi kuHezekhiya: Zwana ilizwi leNkosi.
Sai Ishaya ya ce wa Hezekiya, “Ka ji kalmar Ubangiji.
17 Khangela, insuku ziyeza lapho konke okusendlini yakho lalokho oyihlo abakubekelelayo kuze kube lamuhla kuzathwalelwa eBhabhiloni; kakuyikusala lutho, itsho iNkosi.
Lokaci yana zuwa da za a kwashe kome a fadanka da kuma dukan abubuwan da kakanninka suka tara har yă zuwa yau, a kai su Babilon. Ba abin da za a rage, in ji Ubangiji.
18 Njalo bazathatha emadodaneni akho azaphuma kuwe, ozawazala, abe ngabathenwa esigodlweni senkosi yeBhabhiloni.
Za a kuma kwashe waɗansu daga cikin zuriyarka, na jiki da jininka waɗanda za a haifa maka, su zama bābānni a fadan sarkin Babilon.”
19 UHezekhiya wasesithi kuIsaya: Lihle ilizwi leNkosi olikhulumileyo. Wasesithi: Kakunjalo yini, uba kuzakuba khona ukuthula lokuvikeleka ensukwini zami?
Hezekiya ya ce, “Maganar Ubangiji da ka faɗa ta yi kyau.” Gama ya yi tunani cewa, “Ai, ba ni da damuwa, tun da yake za a yi zaman lafiya da salama a kwanakina.”
20 Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaHezekhiya, lawo wonke amandla akhe, lokuthi wenza ichibi, lomgelo, wangenisa amanzi phakathi komuzi, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Hezekiya, dukan nasarorinsa da yadda ya yi tafki da kuma bututun ruwa inda ya kawo ruwa cikin birni, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Yahuda.
21 UHezekhiya waselala laboyise. UManase indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
Hezekiya ya huta tare da kakanninsa. Manasse ɗansa kuma ya gāje shi.
