2 Mootota 20
1 Bara sana keessa Hisqiyaas dhukkubsatee duʼuu gaʼee ture. Isaayyaas ilmi Amoos raajichi gara isaa dhaqee, “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ‘Mana kee tottolfadhu; ati ni duuta malee hin fayyituutii’” jedheen.
In those days was Ezekias sick [even] to death. And the prophet Esaias the son of Amos came in to him, and said to him, Thus says the Lord, Give charge to your household; [for] you shall die, and not live.
2 Hisqiyaasis fuula isaa gara keenyan manaatti garagalfatee akkana jedhee Waaqayyoon kadhate;
And Ezekias turned to the wall, and prayed to the Lord, saying,
3 “Yaa Waaqayyo, akka ani amanamummaa fi garaa tokkoon fuula kee dura jiraadhee waan fuula kee duratti gaarii taʼes hojjedhe yaadadhu.” Hisqiyaasis hiqqifatee ni booʼe.
Lord, remember, I pray you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your eyes. And Ezekias wept with a great weeping.
4 Utuu Isaayyaas oobdii gara gidduu jiru sana keessaa hin baʼin dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara isaa dhufe;
And Esaias was in the middle court, and the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
5 “Deebiʼii dhaqiitii akkana jedhii Hisqiyaas hoogganaa saba kootiitti himi; ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni abbaa kee Daawit akkana jedha: Ani kadhannaa kee dhagaʼeera; imimmaan kees argeera; ani sin fayyisa. Ati ammaa jalqabdee guyyaa sadaffaatti gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti ol baata.
Turn back, and you shall say to Ezekias the ruler of my people, Thus says the Lord God of your father David, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will heal you: on the third day you shall go up to the house of the Lord.
6 Ani umurii kee irratti waggaa kudha shan siifan dabala. Ani siʼii fi magaalaa kana harka mooticha Asooriitii nan baasa. Ani sababii kootii fi sababii garbicha koo Daawitiif jedhee magaalaa kana nan eega.’”
And I will add to your days fifteen years; and I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians, and I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant's David sake.
7 Kana irratti Isaayyaas, “Maxinoo harbuu tolchaa” jedhe. Isaanis qopheessanii dhullaa isaa irra kaaʼaniif; innis ni fayye.
And he said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it upon the ulcer, and he shall be well.
8 Hisqiyaasis, “Akka Waaqayyo na fayyisuu fi akka ani guyyaa sadaffaatti gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti ol baʼuuf maaltu mallattoo taʼa?” jedhee Isaayyaasin gaafate.
And Ezekias said to Esaias, What [is] the sign that the Lord will heal me, and I shall go up to the house of the Lord on the third day?
9 Isaayyaasis akkana jedhee deebise; “Akka Waaqayyo waan waadaa gale sana hojjetuuf mallattoon Waaqayyo siif kennu kunoo kanaa dha; gaaddidduun tokko tarkaanfii kudhan gara fuula duraatti haa deemuu moo yookaan tarkaanfii kudhan gara dugda duubaatti haa deebiʼuu?”
And Esaias said, This [is] the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will perform the word which he has spoken, the shadow [of the dial] shall advance ten degrees: [or] if it should go back ten degrees [this would also be the sign].
10 Hisqiyaas immoo, “Tarkaanfii kudhan gara fuula duraatti deemuun gaaddidduu tokkoof waan salphaa dha; qooda kanaa akka gaaddidduun sun tarkaanfii kudhan gara dugda duubaatti deebiʼu godhi” jedhe.
And Ezekias said, [It is] a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return ten degrees backward on the dial.
11 Kana irratti Isaayyaas raajichi iyyee Waaqayyoon ni kadhate; Waaqayyos akka gaaddidduun sun tarkaanfii kudhan gulantaa Aahaaz irra gara fuula duraatti deemee ture sana irraa tarkaanfii kudhan gara dugda duubaatti deebiʼu godhe.
And Esaias the prophet cried to the Lord: and the shadow returned back ten degrees on the dial.
12 Yeroo sanatti Meroodak Baladaan ilmi Baladaan mootiin Baabilon sababii akka Hisqiyaas dhukkubsate dhagaʼeef xalayootaa fi kennaa ergeef.
At that time Marodach Baladan, son of Baladan king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Ezekias, because he had heard that Ezekias was sick.
13 Hisqiyaasis ergamoota sana simatee waan mankuusa isaa keessa ture hunda jechuunis meetii, warqee, urgooftuu fi zayitii qulqulluu akkasumas kuusaa miʼa lolaa isaa fi waan mankuusa isaa keessatti argamu hunda isaanitti argisiise. Wanni Hisqiyaas masaraa mootummaa isaa keessaa yookaan mootummaa isaa hunda keessaa isaanitti hin argisiisin tokko iyyuu hin turre.
And Ezekias rejoiced at them, and showed all the house of his spices, the silver and the gold, the spices, and the fine oil, and the armory, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing which Ezekias did not show them in his house, and in all his dominion.
14 Kana irratti Isaayyaas raajichi gara Hisqiyaas mootichaa dhaqee, “Namoonni sun maal jedhan? Isaan eessaa dhufan?” jedhee gaafate. Hisqiyaasis, “Isaan Baabilonii biyya fagoodhaa dhufan” jedhee deebise.
And Esaias the prophet went in to king Ezekias, and said to him, What said these men? and whence came they to you? And Ezekias said, they came to me from a distant land, [even] from Babylon.
15 Raajichi, “Jarri masaraa mootummaa keetii keessatti maal argan?” jedhee gaafate. Hisqiyaas immoo, “Isaan waan masaraa mootummaa koo keessa jiru hunda argan. Wanni ani mankuusa koo keessaa isaanitti hin argisiisin tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedheen.
And he said, What saw they in your house? And he said, They saw all things that [are] in my house: there was nothing in my house which I showed not to them; yes, all that was in my treasures also.
16 Isaayyaasis kana irratti Hisqiyaasiin akkana jedhe; “Dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼi:
And Esaias said to Ezekias, Hear the word of the Lord:
17 Yeroon itti wanni masaraa mootummaa keetii keessa jiru hundii fi wanni abbootiin kee hamma harʼaatti kuusan hundinuu saamamee gara Baabilonitti geeffamu tokko dhugumaan ni dhufa. Wanni tokko iyyuu hin hafu, jedha Waaqayyo.
Behold, the days come, that all things that are in your house shall be taken, and all that your fathers have treasured up until this day, to Babylon; and there shall not fail a word, which the Lord has spoken.
18 Sanyii kee keessaa namoonni tokko tokko, foonii fi dhiigni kee kanneen siif dhalatan boojiʼamanii masaraa mootummaa mooticha Baabilon keessatti xuʼaashiiwwan taʼu.”
And as for your sons which shall come forth of you, which you shall beget, [the enemy] shall take them, and they shall be eunuchs in the house of the king of Babylon.
19 Hisqiyaasis, “Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan ati dubbatte kun gaarii dha” jedhee deebise. Inni, “Bara jireenya koo keessa nagaa fi tasgabbiin hin jiraatuu?” jedhee yaadee tureetii.
And Ezekias said to Esaias, Good [is] the word of the Lord which he has spoken: [only] let there be peace in my days.
20 Wantoonni bara mootummaa Hisqiyaas keessa hojjetaman kanneen biraa, jabinni isaa hundii fi akki inni itti haroo fi ujummoo ittiin bishaan harkisanii gara magaalaatti fidan hojjetes kitaaba seenaa mootota Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
And the rest of the acts of Ezekias, and all his might, and all that he made, the fountain and the aqueduct, and [how] he brought water into the city, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
21 Hisqiyaasis abbootii isaa wajjin boqote. Ilmi isaa Minaaseen iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
And Ezekias slept with his fathers: and Manasses his son reigned in his stead.
