1 Då kong Hizkia høyrde det, reiv han sund klædi sine, og sveipte syrgjebunad kring seg og gjekk inn i Herrens hus.
And it was when heard the king Hezekiah and he tore clothes his and he covered himself with sackcloth and he went [the] house of Yahweh.
2 So sende han drottseten Eljakim og riksskrivaren Sebna og dei eldste av prestarne syrgjeklædde til profeten Jesaja Amosson.
And he sent Eliakim who [was] over the house and - Shebna the scribe and [the] elders of the priests covered with sackcloth to Isaiah [the] son of Amoz the prophet.
3 Og dei sagde til han: «So segjer Hizkia: «Dette er ein dag full av naud og straff og skjemsla; fosteri hev nått fødsli, men det finst ikkje kraft til å føda.
And they said to him thus he says Hezekiah [is] a day of distress and rebuke and insult the day this for they have come children to birth and [is] strength there not for giving birth.
4 Kann henda høyrer Herren, din Gud, det Rabsake hev sagt, han som er send av assyrarkongen, herren sin, til å svivyrda den livande Gud, so han straffar honom for dei ordi som Herren, din Gud, hev høyrt. Ber då fram ei bøn for den leivning som endå er att.»»
Perhaps he will hear Yahweh God your - [the] words of [the] chief commander whom he has sent him [the] king of Assyria - master his to taunt [the] God living and he will rebuke the words which he has heard Yahweh God your and you will lift up prayer for the remnant which is found.

And they came [the] servants of the king Hezekiah to Isaiah.
6 sagde Jesaja til deim: «So skal de svara herren dykkar: «So segjer Herren: Ver ikkje rædd for dei ordi du høyrde, då trælarne åt assyrarkongen spotta meg!
And he said to them Isaiah thus you will say! to master your thus - he says Yahweh may not you be afraid of the words which you have heard which they have blasphemed [the] servants of [the] king of Assyria me.
7 Eit hugskot skyt eg i hugen hans; han høyrer ei tiend, og heim att snur han; der let eg honom falla for sverd i sitt land.»»
Here I [am] about to put in him a spirit and he will hear a report and he will return to own land his and I will make fall him by the sword in own land his.

And he returned [the] chief commander and he found [the] king of Assyria fighting on Libnah if he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
9 Då han so fekk tiend at ætiopkongen Tirhaka hadde drege ut i herferd mot honom, sende han eit nytt bod til Hizkia med dei ordi:
And he heard on Tirhakah [the] king of Cush saying he has come out to do battle with you and he heard and he sent messengers to Hezekiah saying.
10 «Seg med Juda-kongen Hizkia: «Ikkje lat din Gud, som du lit på, narra deg til å tenkja at ikkje Jerusalem skal falla i henderne på assyrarkongen!
Thus you will say! to Hezekiah [the] king of Judah saying may not he deceive you God your whom you [are] trusting in him saying not it will be given Jerusalem in [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria.
11 Du hev nok høyrt gjete sjølv kor assyrarkongarne hev fare åt med mot alle landi: at dei bannstøytte deim. Og so skulde du berga deg undan?
Here! - you you have heard [that] which they have done [the] kings of Assyria to all the lands by totally destroying them and you will you be delivered?
12 Kunde vel folkegudarne berga sine folk, som federne mine øydde ut: Gozan og Haran og Resef og Edens-sønerne som er i Telassar?
¿ Did they deliver them [the] gods of the nations which they destroyed ancestors my Gozan and Haran and Rezeph and [the] people of Eden who [were] in Telassar.
13 Kvar er Hamat-kongen eller Arpad-kongen eller kongen i Sefarvajim-byen, yver Hena og Ivva?»»
Where? [is] [the] king of Hamath and [the] king of Arpad and [the] king of Lair Sepharvaim Hena and Ivvah.

And he took Hezekiah the letters from [the] hand of the messengers and he read it and he went up [the] house of Yahweh and he spread out it Hezekiah before Yahweh.
15 Og Hizkia bad til Herren og sagde:
And he prayed Hezekiah to Yahweh saying.
16 «Herre, allhers drott, Israels Gud, du som tronar yver kerubarne! Einast du er Gud yver alle rike på jordi; du hev gjort himmelen og jordi.
O Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel [who] sits the cherubim you he [are] God to alone you of all [the] kingdoms of the earth you you have made the heavens and the earth.
17 Herre, legg øyra til og lyd! Herre, lat augo upp og sjå! Høyr dei ordi Sanherib sende og svivyrde den livande Gud!
Incline O Yahweh - ear your and hear open O Yahweh eyes your and see and hear all [the] words of Sennacherib which he has sent to taunt [the] God living.
18 Herre, det er sant: assyrarkongarne hev øydt ut folki og deira land,
Truly O Yahweh they have made desolate [the] kings of Assyria all the lands and land their.
19 og dei hev kasta gudarne deira på elden; for dei er ikkje gudar, berre manneverk utav stokk og stein, og dei hev tynt deim.
And they have put gods their in the fire for not [were] gods they that except [the] work of [the] hands of a person wood and stone and they destroyed them.
20 Men no må du, Herre, vår Gud, frelsa oss frå hans magt, so alle rike på jordi må røyna at einast du er Herren!»
And now O Yahweh God our save us from hand his so they may know all [the] kingdoms of the earth that you [are] Yahweh to alone you.
21 Då sende Jesaja Amosson bod til Hizkia med dei ordi: «So segjer Herren, Israels Gud: «Med umsyn på bøni di til meg um Sanherib, assyrarkongen,
And he sent Isaiah [the] son of Amoz to Hezekiah saying thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel that you have prayed to me concerning Sennacherib [the] king of Assyria.
22 då er dette det ordet som Herren hev tala imot honom: Ho vanvyrder deg, ho spottar deg, ungmøyi, Sions dotter, ho rister på hovudet åt deg, Jerusalems dotter.
This [is] the word which he has spoken Yahweh on him she has despised you she has mocked you [the] virgin of [the] daughter of Zion behind you a head she has shaken [the] daughter of Jerusalem.
23 Kven hev du svivyrdt? kven hev du spotta? Kven hev røysti di ropa imot? Augo lyfte du høgt, mot Israels Heilage.
Whom? have you taunted and have you blasphemed? and on whom? have you raised a voice and have you lifted up? height eyes your against [the] holy [one] of Israel.
24 Ved tenarane hædde du Herren og sagde: «Med dei mange vognerne mine for eg upp på dei høgste fjelli, ja, langt burti Libanons utmark, der høgg eg ned hennar høge cedrar og dei hæve cypressorne hennar; eg tek meg fram i dei øvste heimar, inn i den tettaste hagen;
By [the] hand of servants your you have taunted - [the] Lord and you have said with [the] abundance of chariotry my I I have gone up [the] height[s] of mountains [the] remotest parts of Lebanon so I may cut down [the] height of cedars its [the] choicest of pines its so I may come [to the] height of end its [the] forest of orchard its.
25 eg hev grave og drukke vatn; med fotsolen min eg turkar ut alle Egyptarlands elvar.»
I I have dug and I have drunk water so I may dry up with [the] sole of feet my all [the] canals of Egypt.
26 Hev du’kje høyrt at eg hev longe laga det so? Frå ævordsleg tid hev eg fyreåt fastsett dette! Og no let eg det koma i verk! Du fekk magt til å øyda sterke borgar til steinrøysar aude.
¿ Not have you heard from distant [time] it I appointed from days of antiquity and I planned it now I have brought it and you are [about] to make desolate heaps ruined cities fortified.
27 Folki deira vart veike og valne, skalv og stod til skammar. Det gjekk deim som graset på marki og grøne urtar, som vokstrar på taket, som kornåker fyrr han hev skote.
And inhabitants their [were] short of hand they were dismayed and they were ashamed they were [the] vegetation of [the] field and [the] greenery of vegetation grass of roofs and a field before standing grain.
28 Eg veit når du sit, gjeng ut og gjeng inn, kor du slær deg vill imot meg.
And sitting down your and going out you and coming in you I know and raging you against me.
29 Av di du er vill imot meg, og eg høyrer kor kaut du er, eg hektar min krok i nosi di, legg min taum i munnen din og vikjer deg heim att den vegen du kom.»
Because raging you against me and arrogance your it has come up in ears my and I will put hook my in nose your and bridle my on lips your and I will turn back you by the way which you came by it.
30 Og dette skal du hava til merke: I år skal de eta sjølvsått korn, næste år sjølvrunne. Men tridje året skal de så og hausta og planta vinhagar og eta frukti av deim.
And this for you [will be] the sign you will eat this year self-sown grain and in the year second self-seeded plant[s] and in the year third sow and reap and plant vineyards (and eat *Q(K)*) fruit their.
31 Og leivningen som er att av Juda hus, skyt djupare røter nedantil, og ovantil ber han si frukt.
And it will add [the] escaped remnant of [the] house of Judah which remains a root downwards and it will produce fruit upwards.
32 For ein leivning kjem frå Jerusalem, og ein rest frå Sionsfjellet. Brennhugen åt Herren, allhers drott, skal gjera dette.
For from Jerusalem it will go out a remnant and an escaped remnant from [the] mountain of Zion [the] zeal of Yahweh of hosts it will accomplish this.
33 Difor segjer Herren so um assyrarkongen: Ikkje skal han koma inn i denne byen, og ikkje skjota nokor pil der inn; ikkje skal han storma fram mot han med skjold, og ikkje byggja skansar upp imot han.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh concerning [the] king of Assyria not he will come into the city this and not he will shoot there an arrow and not he will confront it a shield and not he will pour out on it a mound.

37 Då tok assyrarkongen Sanherib ut og drog burt og snudde heim att, og heldt seg sidan i Nineve.
And he set out and he went and he returned Sennacherib [the] king of Assyria and he remained in Nineveh.
38 Ein gong han heldt bøn i huset åt Nisrok, guden sin, hogg sønerne hans, Adrammelek og Sareser, honom ned med sverd. Dei kom seg undan til Araratlandet, og Asarhaddon, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
