Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kana kĩarĩ ũthamaki-inĩ wake wothe Hezekia ataamoonirie.
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.”
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.”

Nake mũnabii akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ moonire nyũmba-inĩ yaku ya ũthamaki.” Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Moonire indo ciothe cia nyũmba yakwa ya ũthamaki. Gũtirĩ kĩndũ o na kĩmwe kĩrĩ igĩĩna-inĩ ciakwa itanamoonia.”
5 Ipapo Isaya akati kuna Hezekia, “Inzwa shoko raJehovha Wamasimba Ose:
Nake Isaia akĩĩra Hezekia atĩrĩ, “Ta igua kiugo kĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe:
6 Zvirokwazvo nguva ichauya iyo zvose zviri mumba mako, nezvose zvakaunganidzwa namadzibaba ako kusvikira nhasi, zvichatakurwa zvichiendeswa kuBhabhironi. Hapana chichasara, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Ti-itherũ ihinda nĩrĩgakinya, rĩrĩa indo ciothe iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yaku ya ũthamaki, na iria ciothe maithe maku matũire maigĩte nginya ũmũthĩ, igaakuuo itwarwo Babuloni. Gũtirĩ o na kĩmwe gĩgaatigara. Ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.

Na andũ amwe a rũciaro rwaku, o arĩa moimĩte mũthiimo waku, o arĩa wee ũgaaciara, nĩmagathaamio, na nĩmakaahakũrwo nĩguo matungatage nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
8 Hezekia akapindura achiti, “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.” Nokuti akafunga kuti, “Pachava norugare nokudzivirirwa pamazuva oupenyu hwangu.”
Nake Hezekia agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa waria nĩ kĩega,” tondũ eeciiririe atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngũtũũra muoyo nĩgũgũkorwo kũrĩ na thayũ na ũgitĩri.”
