Byonna ebyali mu bugagga bwe, tewaali kintu mu nnyumba ye newaakubadde mu bwakabaka bwe bwonna Keezeekiya ky’ataabalaga.
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.”
Awo Isaaya nnabbi n’ajja eri kabaka Keezeekiya n’amubuuza nti, “Abasajja banno bagamba ki? Era bavudde wa okujja gy’oli?” Keezeekiya n’amuddamu nti, “Bazze wange, bava mu nsi ey’ewala e Babulooni.”
4 Muprofita akamubvunza achiti, “Vakaoneiko mumuzinda menyu?” Hezekia akati, “Vakaona zvose zviri mumuzinda mangu. Pakati pepfuma yangu hapana chandisina kuvaratidza.”
N’amubuuza nti, “Balabye ki mu nnyumba yo?” Keezeekiya n’addamu nti, “Byonna ebiri mu nnyumba yange babirabye, tewali kintu mu byobugagga bwange kye sibalaze.”
5 Ipapo Isaya akati kuna Hezekia, “Inzwa shoko raJehovha Wamasimba Ose:
Awo Isaaya n’agamba Keezeekiya nti, “Wuliriza Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye ky’agamba:
6 Zvirokwazvo nguva ichauya iyo zvose zviri mumba mako, nezvose zvakaunganidzwa namadzibaba ako kusvikira nhasi, zvichatakurwa zvichiendeswa kuBhabhironi. Hapana chichasara, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Laba, ennaku zijja, byonna ebiri mu nnyumba yo n’ebyo bajjajjaabo bye baaterekanga ebikyaliwo n’okutuusa leero, lwe biritwalibwa e Babulooni, ne watasigala kintu na kimu, bw’ayogera Mukama.
7 Uye vamwe vavana vako, venyama neropa rako chairo vauchabereka, vachatorwa uye vachava varanda mumuzinda wamambo weBhabhironi.”
N’abamu ku batabani bo, ggwe kennyini b’ozaala balitwalibwa mu lubiri lwa kabaka w’e Babulooni ne balaayibwa.”
8 Hezekia akapindura achiti, “Shoko raJehovha rawataura rakanaka.” Nokuti akafunga kuti, “Pachava norugare nokudzivirirwa pamazuva oupenyu hwangu.”
Awo Keezeekiya n’agamba Isaaya nti, “Ekigambo kya Mukama ky’oŋŋambye kirungi.” Kubanga yalowooza nti, “Kasita emirembe, n’obutebenkevu binaabangawo mu mulembe gwange.”
