Isaya 39

1 Panguva iyoyo Merodhaki-Bharadhani mwanakomana waBharadhani mambo weBhabhironi, akatumira matsamba nechipo kuna Hezekia, nokuti akanga anzwa nezvokurwara nokupora kwake.

At that time Merodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and had recovered.

2 Hezekia akagamuchira nhume nomufaro akavaratidza zvakanga zviri mumatura ake: sirivha, goridhe, zvinonhuhwira namafuta anokosha nenhumbi dzake dzose dzokurwa uye nezvose zvaiwanikwa papfuma yake. Hapana chinhu mumuzinda wake kana muumambo hwake chavasina kuratidzwa naHezekia.

And Hezekiah was glad of them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasuries: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not show them.

3 Ipapo muprofita Isaya akaenda kuna Mambo Hezekia akabvunza achiti, “Varume avo vakati kudini, uye vakabvepi?” Hezekia akapindura achiti, “Vakabva kunyika iri kure. Vakauya kwandiri vachibva kuBhabhironi.”

Then came Isaiah the prophet to king Hezekiah, and said to him, What said these men? and from where came they to thee? And Hezekiah said, They have come to me, from a far country, even from Babylon.

4 Muprofita akamubvunza achiti, “Vakaoneiko mumuzinda menyu?” Hezekia akati, “Vakaona zvose zviri mumuzinda mangu. Pakati pepfuma yangu hapana chandisina kuvaratidza.”

Then said he, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in my house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them.

5 Ipapo Isaya akati kuna Hezekia, “Inzwa shoko raJehovha Wamasimba Ose:

Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts:

6 Zvirokwazvo nguva ichauya iyo zvose zviri mumba mako, nezvose zvakaunganidzwa namadzibaba ako kusvikira nhasi, zvichatakurwa zvichiendeswa kuBhabhironi. Hapana chichasara, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.

Behold, the days come, that all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

7 Uye vamwe vavana vako, venyama neropa rako chairo vauchabereka, vachatorwa uye vachava varanda mumuzinda wamambo weBhabhironi.”

And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

8 Hezekia akapindura achiti, “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.” Nokuti akafunga kuti, “Pachava norugare nokudzivirirwa pamazuva oupenyu hwangu.”

Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
