< 2 Wafalme 20 >
1 Katika siku hizo, Hezekia akaugua, naye akawa karibu kufa. Nabii Isaya mwana wa Amozi akaenda kwake na kumwambia, “Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: Tengeneza mambo ya nyumba yako, kwa sababu utakufa, hutapona.”
In the days those he became sick Hezekiah to die and he came to him Isaiah [the] son of Amoz the prophet and he said to him thus he says Yahweh command to household your that [are] about to die you and not you will live.
2 Hezekia akaelekeza uso wake ukutani, akamwomba Bwana:
And he turned around face his to the wall and he prayed to Yahweh saying.
3 “Ee Bwana, kumbuka jinsi nilivyoenenda mbele zako kwa uaminifu na kujitoa kwa moyo wangu wote, na kufanya yaliyo mema machoni pako.” Naye Hezekia akalia kwa uchungu.
I beg you O Yahweh remember please this: I have walked about before you in faithfulness and with a heart complete and the good in view your I have done and he wept Hezekiah weeping great.
4 Kabla Isaya hajaondoka katika ua wa kati, neno la Bwana likamjia, akaambiwa:
And it was Isaiah not he had gone out ([the] court *Q(K)*) middle and [the] word of Yahweh it came to him saying.
5 “Rudi ukamwambie Hezekia, kiongozi wa watu wangu, ‘Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana, Mungu wa baba yako Daudi: Nimeyasikia maombi yako na nimeona machozi yako; nitakuponya. Siku ya tatu kuanzia sasa utapanda kwenda Hekalu la Bwana.
Go back and you will say to Hezekiah [the] ruler of people my thus he says Yahweh [the] God of David ancestor your I have heard prayer your I have seen tear[s] your here I [am] about to heal you on the day third you will go up [the] house of Yahweh.
6 Nitakuongezea miaka kumi na mitano katika maisha yako. Nami nitakuokoa wewe pamoja na mji huu mkononi mwa mfalme wa Ashuru. Nitaulinda mji huu kwa ajili yangu, na kwa ajili ya mtumishi wangu Daudi!’”
And I will add to days your fif-teen year[s] and from [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria I will deliver you and the city this and I will defend the city this for own sake my and for [the] sake of David servant my.
7 Kisha Isaya akasema, “Tengenezeni dawa ya kubandika ya tini.” Wakafanya hivyo na kuiweka kwenye jipu, naye akapona.
And he said Isaiah take a cake of figs and people took [it] and they put [it] on the boil and he lived.
8 Hezekia alikuwa amemuuliza Isaya, “Kutakuwa na ishara gani kwamba Bwana ataniponya mimi, na kwamba nitapanda kwenda Hekalu la Bwana siku ya tatu tangu leo?”
And he said Hezekiah to Isaiah what? [will be] a sign that he will heal Yahweh me and I will go up on the day third [the] house of Yahweh.
9 Isaya akajibu, “Hii ndiyo ishara ya Bwana kwako kwamba Bwana atafanya kile alichoahidi: Je, kivuli kiende hatua kumi mbele, au kivuli kirudi nyuma hatua kumi?”
And he said Isaiah this for you [will be] the sign from with Yahweh that he will do Yahweh the thing which he has spoken it has gone the shadow ten steps or? will it go back ten steps.
10 Hezekia akasema, “Ni jambo rahisi kwa kivuli kutangulia mbele hatua kumi, kuliko kukifanya kirudi nyuma hatua kumi.”
And he said Hezekiah it is trifling to the shadow to stretch out ten steps In-deed let it go back the shadow backwards ten steps.
11 Ndipo nabii Isaya akamwita Bwana, naye Bwana akakifanya kivuli kurudi nyuma hatua kumi ambazo kilikuwa kimeshuka kwenye ngazi ya Ahazi.
And he called out Isaiah the prophet to Yahweh and he turned back the shadow on the steps which it had gone down on [the] steps of Ahaz backwards ten steps.
12 Wakati huo Merodaki-Baladani, mwana wa Baladani mfalme wa Babeli, akamtumia Hezekia barua na zawadi, kwa sababu alikuwa amesikia habari za kuugua kwa Hezekia.
At the time that he sent Merodach-Baladan [the] son of Baladan [the] king of Babylon letters and a gift to Hezekiah for he had heard that he had been sick Hezekiah.
13 Hezekia akawapokea wale wajumbe na kuwaonyesha vitu vyote vile vilivyokuwa katika ghala zake: yaani fedha, dhahabu, vikolezo na mafuta safi, ghala la silaha na kila kitu kilichokuwa katika hazina zake. Hapakuwa na kitu chochote katika jumba lake la kifalme au katika ufalme wake wote ambacho Hezekia hakuwaonyesha.
And he listened to them Hezekiah and he showed them all [the] house of (treasure his *Q(K)*) the silver and the gold and the spices and - [the] oil of the good and [the] house of weapons his and all that it was found in storehouses his not it was anything which not he showed them Hezekiah in house his and in all realm his.
14 Ndipo nabii Isaya akaenda kwa Mfalme Hezekia na kumuuliza, “Watu hao walisema nini, na wametoka wapi?” Hezekia akamjibu, “Wametoka nchi ya mbali. Walikuja kutoka Babeli.”
And he came Isaiah the prophet to the king Hezekiah and he said to him what? did they say - the men these and from where? are they coming to you and he said Hezekiah from a land distant they came from Babylon.
15 Nabii akauliza, “Waliona nini katika jumba lako la kifalme?” Hezekia akajibu, “Waliona kila kitu katika jumba langu la kifalme. Hakuna kitu chochote katika hazina yangu ambacho sikuwaonyesha.”
And he said what? did they see in house your and he said Hezekiah all that [is] in house my they saw not it was anything which not I showed them in storehouses my.
16 Ndipo Isaya akamwambia Hezekia, “Sikia neno la Bwana:
And he said Isaiah to Hezekiah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
17 Hakika wakati unakuja ambapo vitu vyote katika jumba lako la kifalme, na vyote ambavyo baba zako waliweka akiba mpaka siku hii, vitachukuliwa kwenda Babeli. Hakuna chochote kitakachosalia, asema Bwana.
Here! days [are] coming and it will be carried off - all that [is] in house your and [that] which they have stored up ancestors your until the day this Babylon towards not it will be left behind anything he says Yahweh.
18 Nao baadhi ya wazao wako, nyama yako na damu yako mwenyewe watakaozaliwa kwako, watachukuliwa mbali, nao watakuwa matowashi katika jumba la mfalme wa Babeli.”
And some of descendants your who they will come forth from you whom you will father (people will take away *Q(K)*) and they will be eunuchs in [the] palace of [the] king of Babylon.
19 Hezekia akamjibu Isaya, “Neno la Bwana ulilosema ni jema.” Kwa kuwa alifikiri, “Lakini si patakuwa na amani na usalama wakati wa uhai wangu?”
And he said Hezekiah to Isaiah [is] good [the] word of Yahweh which you have spoken and he said ¿ not if peace and stability it will be in days my.
20 Matukio mengine ya utawala wa Hezekia, mafanikio yake yote, na jinsi alivyotengeneza bwawa na mfereji ambao ulileta maji katika mji, je, hayakuandikwa katika kitabu cha kumbukumbu za wafalme wa Yuda?
And [the] rest of [the] matters of Hezekiah and all might his and which he made the pool and the conduit and he brought the waters the city towards ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Judah.
21 Hezekia akafa, akazikwa pamoja na baba zake. Naye Manase mwanawe akawa mfalme baada yake.
And he lay down Hezekiah with ancestors his and he became king Manasseh son his in place of him.
