< 2 Ahemfo 20 >
1 Saa nna no mu no, Hesekia yaree owuyare, na Amos babarima Odiyifo Yesaia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔkae se, “Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Toto wʼakwan yiye, efisɛ worebewu; na wo ho renyɛ wo den bio.”
Masiku amenewo Hezekiya anadwala ndipo anali pafupi kufa. Mneneri Yesaya, mwana wa Amozi anapita kukamuona ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Yehova akuti: Konza nyumba yako chifukwa umwalira ndipo suchira.”
2 Bere a Hesekia tee asɛm yi, otwaa nʼani hwɛɛ ɔfasu, bɔɔ Awurade mpae se,
Hezekiya anatembenuka nayangʼana ku khoma ndipo anapemphera kwa Yehova kuti,
3 “Kae, Awurade, sɛnea manantew wʼanim nokware mu na mede me koma ayɛ nea ɛfata wɔ wʼanim.” Na Hesekia suu bebree.
“Inu Yehova, kumbukirani ndithu mmene ndayendera mokhulupirika ndi mtima wonse ndipo ndachita zolungama pamaso panu.” Hezekiya analira kwambiri.
4 Na ansa na Yesaia befi adiwo no mfimfini no, Awurade de asɛm yi besii ne so se,
Yesaya asanatuluke mʼbwalo lapakati, Yehova anayankhula kuti,
5 “San kɔ Hesekia a ɔyɛ me nkurɔfo kannifo no nkyɛn, na kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade a ɔyɛ wʼagya Dawid Nyankopɔn se: Mate wo mpaebɔ no, ahu wo nusu no. Mɛsa wo yare, na nnansa akyi no, wobɛsɔre afi mpa so, na woakɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu.
“Bwerera, kamuwuze Hezekiya mtsogoleri wa anthu anga kuti, ‘Yehova Mulungu wa Davide kholo lako akuti: Ndamva pemphero lako ndipo misozi yako ndayiona ndipo ndidzakuchiritsa. Tsiku lachitatu kuchokera lero udzapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova.
6 Mede mfe dunum bɛka wo mfe ho, na megye wo ne saa kuropɔn yi afi Asiriahene nsam. Me somfo Dawid nti, mɛyɛ eyi de agye mʼanuonyam.’”
Ndidzawonjezera zaka khumi ndi zisanu pa moyo wako. Ndidzakupulumutsa iwe pamodzi ndi mzinda umenewu mʼdzanja la mfumu ya ku Asiriya. Ndidzateteza mzinda umenewu chifukwa cha Ine mwini ndiponso chifukwa cha Davide mtumiki wanga.’”
7 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia asomfo no se, “Momfa borɔdɔma nyɛ ngo, na momfa nsrasra pɔmpɔ no so.” Wɔyɛɛ saa, na Hesekia nyaa ahoɔden.
Pamenepo Yesaya anati, “Konzani phala lankhuyu.” Iwo anakonza phalalo nalipaka pa chithupsacho ndipo Hezekiya anachira.
8 Ansa na ɔrebenya ayaresa no, Hesekia bisaa Yesaia se, “Nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛn na Awurade bɛyɛ, de akyerɛ sɛ ɔbɛsa me yare, na matumi akɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu nnansa so?”
Tsono Hezekiya anafunsa Yesaya kuti, “Kodi padzakhala chizindikiro chanji choonetsa kuti Yehova adzandichiritsa ndi kuti ndidzapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova pa tsiku lachitatu kuchokera lero lino?”
9 Yesaia buae se, “Eyi ne nsɛnkyerɛnne a Awurade bɛyɛ akyerɛ wo sɛ obedi ne bɔhyɛ so. Wopɛ sɛ sunsuma no kɔ nʼanim anammɔntu du anaa ɛsan nʼakyi anammɔntu du?”
Yesaya anayankha kuti, “Chizindikiro cha Yehova chosonyeza kuti Iye adzachita chimene walonjeza ndi ichi: Kodi chithunzithunzi chipite patsogolo kapena chibwerere pambuyo makwerero khumi?”
10 Hesekia buae se, “Honhom no kɔ nʼanim bere biara. Na mmom, ma ɛnkɔ nʼakyi.”
Hezekiya anati, “Nʼchapafupi kuti chithunzithunzi chipite patsogolo makwerero khumi, kulekana nʼkuti chithunzithunzicho chibwerere mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi.”
11 Enti Yesaia srɛɛ Awurade sɛ ɔnyɛ eyi, na ɔmaa sunsuma no tetew san nʼakyi anammɔntu du wɔ Ahas atrapoe no so.
Pamenepo mneneri Yesaya anapemphera kwa Yehova ndipo Yehova anachititsa kuti chithunzithunzi chibwerere mʼmbuyo makwerero khumi pa makwerero amene mfumu Ahazi anamanga.
12 Saa bere yi mu na Babiloniahene Baladan babarima Merodak-Baladan soma ma wɔkɔmaa Hesekia tirinkwa ne akyɛde, efisɛ na wate sɛ ɔyare dennen bi bɔɔ Hesekia.
Pa nthawi imeneyo Merodaki-Baladani mwana wa Baladani mfumu ya Babuloni anatumiza amithenga kwa Hezekiya kukapereka makalata ndi mphatso, chifukwa nʼkuti atamva za kudwala kwa Hezekiyayo.
13 Hesekia gyee Babilonia ananmusifo yi, kyerɛɛ wɔn biribiara a ɔwɔ wɔ nʼadekoradan mu a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, nnuhuam ne ngo a ɛyɛ huam. Afei nso, ɔde wɔn kɔɔ nʼadekorabea, san kyerɛɛ wɔn nʼadekoradan mu biribiara. Biribiara nni nʼahemfi hɔ anaa nʼaheman mu hɔ a Hesekia ankyerɛ wɔn.
Hezekiya analandira amithengawo ndipo anawaonetsa zonse zimene zinali mʼnyumba zake zosungiramo chuma. Anawaonetsa siliva, golide, zonunkhiritsa zakudya ndi mafuta abwino kwambiri, zida zake zankhondo ndiponso china chilichonse chimene chinali mosungiramo zinthu zake. Panalibe chinthu mʼnyumba yake yaufumu kapena mu ufumu wake wonse chimene Hezekiya sanawaonetse.
14 Afei Odiyifo Yesaia kɔɔ ɔhene Hesekia nkyɛn, kobisaa no se, “Asɛm bɛn na saa mmarima no kae na he na wofi bae?” Hesekia buae se, “Wofi akyirikyiri asase bi so. Wofi Babilonia, na wɔbaa me nkyɛn.”
Tsono mneneri Yesaya anapita kwa Mfumu Hezekiya namufunsa kuti, “Kodi anthu aja anakuwuzani zotani ndipo anachokera kuti?” Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Anachokera ku dziko lakutali, ku Babuloni.”
15 Odiyifo no bisae se, “Dɛn na wohuu wɔ wʼahemfi hɔ?” Hesekia buae se, “Wohuu biribiara a ɛwɔ mʼahemfi ha. Biribiara nni mʼademude mu a mamfa ankyerɛ wɔn.”
Mneneriyo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi anaona chiyani mʼnyumba yanu yaufumu?” Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Anaona china chilichonse mʼnyumba yanga yaufumu ndipo palibe ndi chinthu chimodzi chomwe chimene sindinawaonetse mʼnyumba zanga zosungiramo chuma.”
16 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia se, “Tie saa asɛm a efi Awurade nkyɛn yi:
Pamenepo Yesaya anawuza Hezekiya kuti, “Imvani zimene Yehova akunena:
17 Nokware, bere bi bɛba a, wɔbɛsoa biribiara a ɛwɔ wʼahemfi ne agyapade a wʼagyanom akora de abedu nnɛ no akɔ Babilonia. Biribiara renka, sɛɛ na Awurade se.
Taonani, masiku akubwera ndithu pamene zonse za mʼnyumba yanu yaufumu, zonse zimene makolo anu anazisunga mpaka lero, zidzatengedwa kupita ku Babuloni. Palibe chimene chidzatsale, akutero Yehova.
18 Wʼankasa wʼasefo bi mpo, wɔbɛfa wɔn nnommum. Wɔbɛyɛ piamfo a wɔbɛsom wɔ Babiloniahene ahemfi.”
Ndipo ena mwa ana anu omwe, amene mudzabereke adzatengedwa ndipo adzawasandutsa anthu ofulidwa mʼnyumba yaufumu ya mfumu ya Babuloni.”
19 Na Hesekia ka kyerɛɛ Yesaia se, “Saa asɛm yi a efi Awurade nkyɛn a woaka akyerɛ me yi yɛ asɛm papa.” Nanso na ɔhene no redwene sɛ, ne bere so de, obenya asomdwoe ne bammɔ.
Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Mawu a Yehova amene mwayankhulawa ndi abwino. Pakuti iye ankaganiza kuti, ‘Kodi pa nthawi yanga sipadzakhala mtendere ndi bata?’”
20 Nsɛm a esisii Hesekia ahenni mu nkae no a ne tumidi ka ho, ne sɛnea ɔyɛɛ subun, twaa suka maa nsu baa kurow no mu no nyinaa, wɔankyerɛw angu Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nhoma no mu ana?
Ntchito zina za Hezekiya ndi zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Yuda?
21 Bere a Hesekia wui no, ne babarima Manase na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
Hezekiya anamwalira nagona pamodzi ndi makolo ake. Ndipo Manase mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
