ʻIsaia 38
1 ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe mahaki ʻa Hesekaia ʻo meimei mate. Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻIsaia ko e palōfita ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Teuteu ho fale: he te ke mate, pea ʻikai moʻui.”
Ngalezonsuku uHezekhiya wagula waphos'ukufa. UIsaya indodana kaAmozi umprofethi wasefika kuye, wathi kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Layezela indlu yakho, ngoba uzakufa, kawuyikuphila.
2 Pea naʻe toki tafoki ʻa Hesekaia ʻo hanga hono mata ki he holisi ʻoe fale, pea lotu kia Sihova,
UHezekhiya wasephendulela ubuso bakhe ngasemdulini, wakhuleka eNkosini,
3 Pea ne pehē, “ʻE Sihova, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke manatu ki he anga ʻo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva ʻi ho ʻao ʻi he moʻoni pea mo e loto haohaoa, pea kuo u fai ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho ʻao.” Pea naʻe tangi mamahi ʻa Hesekaia.
wathi: Ngiyakuncenga, Nkosi, ake ukhumbule ukuthi ngihambe phambi kwakho ngobuqotho langenhliziyo epheleleyo, ngenza okulungileyo emehlweni akho. UHezekhiya wasekhala inyembezi ngokukhala okukhulu.
4 Pea toki hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē,
Kwasekufika ilizwi leNkosi kuIsaya, lisithi:
5 “ʻAlu, ʻo tala kia Hesekaia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo Tevita ko hoʻo tamai, kuo u fanongo ki hoʻo hū, kuo u mamata ki hoʻo loʻimata: vakai, te u fakalahi ʻaki hoʻo ngaahi ʻaho ʻae taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma nima.
Hamba, uthi kuHezekhiya: Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaDavida uyihlo: Ngiwuzwile umkhuleko wakho, ngibonile inyembezi zakho; khangela, ngizakwengezelela iminyaka elitshumi lanhlanu ensukwini zakho,
6 Pea te u fakamoʻui koe mo e kolo ni mei he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia: pea te u maluʻi ʻae kolo ni.
ngikukhulule wena lalumuzi esandleni senkosi yeAsiriya, ngiwuvikele lumuzi.
7 Pea ko e fakaʻilonga eni kiate koe meia Sihova, ki heʻene fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ni ʻaia kuo ne folofola ki ai;
Lalesi yisibonakaliso kuwe esivela eNkosini, esokuthi iNkosi izayenza le into eyikhulumileyo.
8 Vakai, te u toe ʻomi ki mui ʻae ʻata ʻoe ngaahi tikeli, ʻaia kuo ʻalu hifo ʻi he meʻa fakaʻilonga laʻā ʻo ʻAhasi, ko e vahe ʻe hongofulu. Pea naʻe foki ki mui ʻae laʻā ʻi he tikeli ʻe hongofulu, ʻae ngaahi vahe ko ia ʻaia kuo ʻalu hifo ai ia.”
Khangela, ngizabuyisela emuva isithunzi sezinyathelo esesehlile ezinyathelweni zelanga zikaAhazi, izinyathelo ezilitshumi emuva. Ilanga laselibuyela emuva izinyathelo ezilitshumi, ngezinyathelo elalehle ngazo.
9 Ko e tohi [eni ]e Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻi he hili ʻa hono mahaki, pea kuo moʻui ia mei hono mahaki;
Umbhalo kaHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda lapho egula, esesile emkhuhlaneni wakhe.
10 Naʻaku pehē ʻi he tuʻusi ʻa hoku ngaahi ʻaho, “Te u ʻalu hifo ki he matapā ʻoe fonualoto: kuo faʻao ʻiate au hono toe ʻo hoku ngaahi taʻu.” (Sheol h7585)
Mina ngathi: Ekuqunyweni kwezinsuku zami ngizakuya emasangweni engcwaba; ngemukiwe insali yeminyaka yami. (Sheol h7585)
11 Naʻaku pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u mamata kia Sihova, ʻio, ko Sihova, ʻi he fonua ʻoe moʻui: ʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata ki he tangata fakataha mo e kakai ʻo māmani.
Ngathi: Kangiyikubona uJehova, uJehova elizweni labaphilayo; kangisayikubona muntu labahlali bomhlaba.
12 Kuo ʻalu hoku ngaahi taʻu, pea kuo ʻave ia ʻiate au ʻo hangē ko e fale fehikitaki ʻoe tauhi sipi: naʻaku tuʻusi ʻeku moʻui ʻo hangē ko e tangata lalanga tupenu: te ne tuʻusi ke motu au ʻi he fakaʻauʻausino: mei he ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki he pō ʻoku ke fakaʻosi au.
Isizukulwana sami sesisukile, sasuswa kimi njengethente lomelusi; ngiqume impilo yami njengomeluki; uzangiquma njengomkhuhlane ocikizayo; kusukela emini kuze kube sebusuku uzangiqeda.
13 Naʻaku lau ki he pongipongi, koeʻuhi ʻo hangē ko e laione te ne fesiʻi pehē hoku ngaahi hui kotoa pē: mei he ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki he pō ʻoku ke fai ke fakaʻosi au.
Ngabalisa kwaze kwaba sekuseni; njengesilwane, ngokunjalo uzakwephula amathambo ami wonke; kusukela emini kuze kube sebusuku uzangiqeda.
14 ʻO hangē ko e kaleni pe ko e sualo, naʻe pehē ʻeku lea: ne u tangi ʻo hangē ko e lupe: kuo vaivai hoku mata ʻi he sio ki ʻolunga: ʻE Sihova, kuo u taʻomia; ke ke langomakiʻi au.”
Njengenkonjane kumbe ihemu, ngokunjalo ngatshiyoza; ngilila njengejuba; amehlo ami afiphala ngokukhangela phezulu. Nkosi, ngicindezelwe; woba yisibambiso sami.
15 Ko e hā te u lea aki? Kuo talaʻofa ia kiate au, pea kuo ne fai ki ai: te u ʻalu ʻi he angavaivai ʻi hoku ngaahi taʻu kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e mamahi ʻa hoku laumālie.
Ngingathini? Ikhulumile kimi, yona uqobo ikwenzile. Ngizahamba kabuthakathaka yonke iminyaka yami ebuhlungwini bomphefumulo wami.
16 ʻE Sihova, ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni ʻoku moʻui ai ʻae tangata, pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ʻoku ai ʻae moʻui ʻa hoku laumālie: kuo pehē hoʻo fakamoʻui au, pea ngaohi au ke u moʻui.
Nkosi, ngalezizinto bayaphila, lakuzo zonke lezizinto kulempilo yomoya wami. Njalo uzangelapha, ungiphilise.
17 Vakai, ne u maʻu ʻae mamahi lahi ko e fetongi ʻoe fiemālie: ka ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ki hoku laumālie kuo ke fakamoʻui ia mei he luo ʻoe fakaʻauha: he kuo ke lī ʻeku ngaahi hia kotoa pē ki ho tuʻa.
Khangela, kulokuthula ngibe lobuhlungu obukhulu, kodwa wena uwuthandile umphefumulo wami wawukhulula egodini lencithakalo, ngoba uphosele ngemva komhlana wakho zonke izono zami.
18 He ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakamālō kiate koe ʻae faʻitoka, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa fakaongoongoleleiʻi koe ʻe he mate: ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he luo ʻoku ʻikai te nau faʻa ʻamanaki ki he moʻoni. (Sheol h7585)
Ngoba ingcwaba lingekubonge; ukufa kungekudumise; labo abehlela emgodini bangelithembele iqiniso lakho. (Sheol h7585)
19 Ko e kakai moʻui, ko e kakai moʻui, ko ia ʻe fakamālō kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku ou fai ʻi he ʻaho ni: ʻe fakahā hoʻo moʻoni ʻe he tamai ki he fānau.
Ophilayo, ophilayo, yena uzakudumisa, njengami lamuhla; uyise uzakwazisa abantwana iqiniso lakho.
20 Naʻe tatali ʻe Sihova ke fakamoʻui au: ko ia te mau hiva ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi hiva ʻi he meʻa faiva ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻemau moʻui ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
INkosi yayilungele ukungisindisa; ngakho sizahlabelela izingoma zami ngamachacho insuku zonke zempilo yethu endlini yeNkosi.
21 He naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIsaia, “Tuku ke nau toʻo ʻae ngaahi fiki, pea ʻai ia ko e pulusi ki he hala, pea te ne moʻui.”
Ngoba uIsaya wayethe: Kabathathe isigaqa somkhiwa, basifake njengomnameko phezu kwethumba, njalo uzasila.
22 Pea ne pehē foki ʻe Hesekaia, “Ko e hā ʻae fakaʻilonga te u ʻalu hake ai ki he fale ʻo Sihova?”
UHezekhiya laye wayethe: Siyini isibonakaliso sokuthi ngizakwenyukela endlini yeNkosi?
