1 Mumazuva iwayo Hezekia akarwara zvokuda kufa. Muprofita Isaya mwanakomana waAmozi akaenda kwaari akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: Gadzira imba yako, nokuti uchafa, hausi kuzorarama.”
Matukũ-inĩ macio Hezekia akĩrwara, na aarĩ hakuhĩ gũkua. Mũnabii Isaia mũrũ wa Amozu agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Thondeka maũndũ ma mũciĩ waku, tondũ nĩũgũkua, ndũkũhona.”
2 Hezekia akatendeukira kumadziro uye akanyengetera kuna Jehovha akati,
Hezekia akĩhũgũra ũthiũ wake, akĩrora rũthingo-inĩ, na akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ,
3 “Haiwa Jehovha, rangarirai kuti ndakafamba sei pamberi penyu nokutendeka uye nomwoyo wose uye ndikaita zvakanaka pamberi penyu.” Hezekia akachema zvikuru.
“Wee Jehova, ririkana ũrĩa ngoretwo ngĩthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya kwĩhokeka mbere yaku, na ngeheana na ngoro yakwa yothe, na ngeeka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ maku.” Nake Hezekia akĩrĩra mũno.
4 Isaya asati abva paruvanze rwapakati, shoko raJehovha rakauya kwaari richiti,
Isaia atanakinya nja ya gatagatĩ-rĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩmũkinyĩra, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
5 “Dzokera undoudza Hezekia, mutungamiri wavanhu vangu kuti, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari wababa vako Dhavhidhi: Ndanzwa munyengetero wako uye ndaona misodzi yako; ndichakuporesa. Nezuva retatu kubva zvino uchakwira kutemberi yaJehovha.
“Cooka, ũkeere Hezekia mũtongoria wa andũ akwa atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Ngai wa thoguo Daudi ekuuga ũũ: Nĩnjiguĩte ihooya rĩaku, na ngoona maithori maku; nĩngũkũhonia. Mũthenya wa ĩtatũ kuuma rĩu nĩũkambata ũthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
6 Ndichawedzera paupenyu hwako makore gumi namashanu. Uye ndichakurwira iwe neguta rino. Ndicharwira guta iri kubva muruoko rwamambo weAsiria nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwomuranda wangu Dhavhidhi.’”
Nĩngũkuongerera mĩaka ikũmi na ĩtano ya gũtũũra muoyo. Na nĩngũkũhonokia hamwe na itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũthamaki wa Ashuri. Nĩngũgitĩra itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene nĩ ũndũ wakwa, na nĩ ũndũ wa Daudi ndungata yakwa.’”
7 Ipapo Isaya akati, “Gadzirai bundu ramaonde.” Vakaita saizvozvo vakariisa pamota, uye akapora.
Ningĩ Isaia akiuga atĩrĩ, “Thondekai gĩkũmba kĩa ngũyũ.” Nao magĩĩka o ũguo, na magĩkĩigĩrĩra ihũha-inĩ rĩu, nake Hezekia akĩhona.
8 Hezekia akanga abvunza Isaya achiti, “Chiratidzo chichava chei chokuti Jehovha achandiporesa uye kuti ndichakwira kutemberi yaJehovha pazuva retatu kubva zvino here?”
Hezekia nĩoorĩtie Isaia atĩrĩ, “Kĩmenyithia gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩrĩkũ kĩa atĩ Jehova nĩekũũhonia, na atĩ nĩngambata thiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova mũthenya wa gatatũ kuuma ũmũthĩ?”
9 Isaya akapindura akati, “Ichi ndicho chiratidzo chaJehovha kwauri kuti Jehovha achaita zvaavimbisa: Ko, ungada kuti mumvuri uende nhambwe gumi mberi here kana kudzoka mushure nhambwe gumi?”
Nake Isaia akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩmenyithia kĩrĩa Jehova egũkũhe, kĩa atĩ Jehova nĩegwĩka ũndũ ũcio akwĩrĩire: Ũkwenda kĩĩruru gĩthiĩ mbere makinya ikũmi, kana gĩcooke thuutha makinya ikũmi?”
10 Hezekia akati, “Zvakareruka kuti mumvuri uende mberi nhambwe gumi. Saka ngaudzoke nhambwe gumi mushure.”
Nake Hezekia akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kĩĩruru gũthiĩ na mbere makinya ikũmi nĩ ũndũ mũhũthũ, nĩ kaba kĩĩruru gĩcooke na thuutha makinya ikũmi.”
11 Ipapo muprofita Isaya akadana kuna Jehovha, Jehovha akadzorera mumvuri shure nhambwe gumi pamanera aAhazi.
Nake mũnabii Isaia agĩkaĩra Jehova, nake Jehova agĩtũma kĩĩruru gĩcooke na thuutha makinya macio ikũmi marĩa gĩaikũrũkĩte ngathĩ-inĩ ya Ahazu.
12 Panguva iyo yaMerodhaki-Bharadhani, mwanakomana waBharadhani mambo weBhabhironi, akatumira tsamba nechipo kuna Hezekia, nokuti akanga anzwa nezvokurwara kwaHezekia.
Ihinda-inĩ rĩu-rĩ, Merodaki-Baladani mũrũ wa Baladani mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩatũmĩire Hezekia marũa na kĩheo, tondũ nĩaiguĩte ũhoro wa ndwari ya Hezekia.
13 Hezekia akagamuchira nhume akadziratidza zvose zvakanga zviri mumatura ake, sirivha negoridhe, nezvinonhuhwira, namafuta anokosha, nedura rezvombo nezvose zvaiwanikwa pakati pepfuma yake. Hezekia haana chaasina kuvaratidza mumuzinda make kana muushe hwake hwose.
Hezekia akĩamũkĩra andũ arĩa maatũmĩtwo, na akĩmoonia indo ciothe iria aigĩte makũmbĩ make, akĩmoonia betha, na thahabu, na mahuti marĩa manungi wega, na maguta marĩa mega mũno, na indo ciake cia mbaara, na indo ciothe iria ciarĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciake. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kana kĩarĩ ũthamaki-inĩ wake wothe Hezekia ataamoonirie.
14 Ipapo muprofita Isaya akaenda kuna Mambo Hezekia akamubvunza akati, “Zvanzi kudini navarume avo, uye vabvepi?” Hezekia akapindura akati, “Vabva kunyika iri kure. Vabva kuBhabhironi.”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Isaia agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Hezekia akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ acio moiga atĩa, na mekuumĩte kũ?” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Moimĩte bũrũri wa kũraya, megũkĩte kuuma bũrũri wa Babuloni.”
15 Muprofita akamubvunza akati, “Chii chavaona mumuzinda mako?” Hezekia akapindura akati, “Vaona zvose zviri mumuzinda mangu. Hapana chinhu chiri pakati pepfuma yangu chandisina kuvaratidza.”
Nake mũnabii akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ monire nyũmba-inĩ yaku ya ũthamaki?” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Monire indo ciothe nyũmba-inĩ yakwa ya ũthamaki. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩrĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciakwa itanamonia.”
16 Ipapo Isaya akati kuna Hezekia, “Chinzwa shoko raJehovha:
Nake Isaia akĩĩra Hezekia atĩrĩ, “Ta igua kiugo kĩa Jehova:
17 Zvirokwazvo nguva ichasvika yokuti zvose zviri mumuzinda mako, nezvose zvakaunganidzwa nababa vako kusvikira pazuva ranhasi, zvichatakurwa zvichiendeswa kuBhabhironi. Hapana chichasara, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Ti-itherũ ihinda nĩrĩgakinya, rĩrĩa indo ciothe iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yaku ya ũthamaki, na indo iria ciothe maithe maku matũire maigĩte nginya ũmũthĩ, ĩgaakuuo itwarwo Babuloni. Gũtirĩ o na kĩmwe gĩgaatigara, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
18 Uye vamwe vavanakomana vako, venyama yako chaivo neropa rako, vauchabereka, vachatorwa kubva kwauri, uye vachava varanda mumuzinda wamambo weBhabhironi.”
Na andũ amwe a rũciaro rwaku, o arĩa moimĩte mũthiimo-inĩ na thakame-inĩ yaku, o arĩa wee ũgũciara, nĩmagathaamio, na nĩmakaahakũrwo nĩguo matungatage nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
19 Hezekia akapindura akati, “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.” Nokuti akafungawo akati, “Hakuchavi here norugare nokudzivirirwa munguva youpenyu hwangu?”
Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa waria nĩ kĩega,” Tondũ eeciiririe atĩrĩ, “Githĩ gũtigũkorwo na thayũ na ũgitĩri matukũ-inĩ mothe ma muoyo wakwa?”
20 Kana zviri zvimwe zvakaitika panguva yokutonga kwaHezekia, nezvose zvaakaita uye namavakiro aakaita dziva nomugero waakauyisa nawo mvura muguta, hazvina kunyorwa here mubhuku renhoroondo dzamadzimambo eJudha?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Hezekia, na marĩa mothe eekire, na ũrĩa aathondekire Karia, o na mũtaro wa kũrehe maaĩ itũũra-inĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
21 Hezekia akazorora namadzibaba ake. Manase mwanakomana wake akamutevera paumambo.
Nake Hezekia akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Manase agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
