1 Ngomnyaka wokufika kukaTharithani eAshidodi, lapho uSarigoni inkosi yeAsiriya emthuma, lapho walwa leAshidodi wayithumba;
Assyria lengpa Sargon in, a sepai jalam kaipa henga Philistine khopi Ashdod lo dinga thu apeh khum chun,
2 ngalesosikhathi iNkosi yakhuluma ngesandla sikaIsaya indodana kaAmozi isithi: Hamba, ukhulule isaka ekhalweni lwakho, ukhuphe inyathela lakho enyaweni zakho. Wasesenza njalo, ehambaze engafakanga manyathela.
Pakai in Amoz chapa Isaiah henga aseijin, “Na von chu sutlhan lang na kengchot teni jongchu koidoh in.” Isaiah in akisei bang chun abolin, sagoh keoleh kengkeo in avahlen ahi.
3 INkosi yasisithi: Njengalokhu inceku yami uIsaya isihambeze ingafakanga manyathela okweminyaka emithathu, kube yisibonakaliso lesimanga phezu kweGibhithe laphezu kweEthiyophiya;
Hichun Pakai in ahin seijin, “Ka sohpa Isaiah hi kumthum ahitai sagoh keo leh kengkeo va avalena hi. Hiche hi melchihna ahi-Egypt leh Ethiopia chunga hahsatna lentah kalhun sah ding vetsahna lim ahi.
4 ngokunjalo inkosi yeAsiriya izaqhuba abathunjiweyo beGibhithe labaxotshiweyo beEthiyophiya, abatsha labadala, beze bengafakanga manyathela, lezibunu zisegcekeni, kube lihlazo eGibhithe.
Ajeh chu Assyria lengpan Egypt teleh Ethiopia te songkul tang dinga apui mang ding ahi. Sagoh keo leh kengchot beija avaleh sah ding, Egypt mite jumna dinga aneo alen atokeu uva alhat lesah ding ahi.
5 Basebesethuka baba lenhloni ngeEthiyophiya ithemba labo, langeGibhithe udumo lwabo.
Chuteng Philistine te lung linglao a umdiu ahi. Ajehchu amahon Ethiopia thanei akisonpiu va, chuleh akisamkai piu Egypt a kiletsah piu ahi.
6 Abahlali balesisihlenge bazakuthi ngalolosuku: Khangela, linjalo ithemba lethu, lapho esabalekelela usizo khona ukuze sikhululwe ebusweni benkosi yeAsiriya. Pho, thina sizaphunyuka njani?
Hitia hi asei diu ahi, 'Hitobang hi Egypt te chunga ahunglhun theileh, eihon ipi agom kom phat inei diu ham? Assyria lengpa akona eihuhdoh dinguva Egypt te ina kisonpiu ahi.”
