1 Saa ɛberɛ no mu, ɔhene Hesekia yaree yarewuo, ɛnna Amos babarima odiyifoɔ Yesaia kɔsraa no. Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ ɔhene no, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Hyɛ wo nsamanseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, wobɛwu. Wo yadeɛ no rennyae.”
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Hezekia dze dɔ eye wòɖo kudo nu. Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya, Amoz ƒe vi yi egbɔ eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ɖɔ wò aƒe ɖo elabena èle kuku ge eye màhaya o.’”
2 Ɛberɛ a Hesekia tee asɛm yi, ɔtwaa nʼani hwɛɛ fasuo, bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ sɛ,
Hezekia trɔ mo ɖo ɖe gli ŋu eye wòdo gbe ɖa, ɖe kuku na Yehowa be,
3 “Kae, Ao, Awurade, sɛdeɛ manante wʼanim nokorɛm na mede mʼakoma ayɛ deɛ ɛfata wɔ wʼanim.” Na Hesekia suu bebree.
“Oo Yehowa, ɖo ŋku ale si mezɔ le ŋkuwòme le anukwareɖiɖi me kple ale si metsɔ nye dzi blibo la wɔ nu si nyo le ŋkuwò me la dzi.” Eye Hezekia fa avi vevie.
4 Na ansa na Yesaia bɛfiri adihɔ no mfimfini no, Awurade de asɛm yi bɛsii ne so sɛ,
Hafi Yesaya nado le xɔxɔnu titinatɔ me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va nɛ bena,
5 “Sane kɔ Hesekia a ɔyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ ɔkannifoɔ no nkyɛn, na kɔka kyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Sei na Awurade a ɔyɛ wʼagya Dawid Onyankopɔn seɛ: Mate wo mpaeɛbɔ no, ahunu wo nisuo no. Mɛsa wo yadeɛ, na nnansa akyi no, wobɛsɔre afiri mpa so, na woakɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu.
“Trɔ nàyi ɖagblɔ na Hezekia, nye dukɔ ƒe kplɔla be, ‘Ale Yehowa, fofowò David ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: Mese wò gbedodoɖa eye mekpɔ wò aɖatsiwo. Mayɔ dɔ wò. Ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi la, àyi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
6 Mede mfeɛ dunum bɛka wo mfeɛ ho, na mɛgye wo ne saa kuropɔn yi afiri Asiriahene nsam. Me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid enti, mɛyɛ yei, de agye mʼanimuonyam.’”
Mada ƒe wuiatɔ̃ ɖe wò agbenɔƒewo dzi eye maɖe wò kple du sia tso Asiria fia ƒe asi me. Maʋli du sia ta le nye ŋkɔ kple nye dɔla David ta.’”
7 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia asomfoɔ no sɛ, “Momfa borɔdɔma nyɛ ngo, na momfa nsrasra pɔmpɔ no so.” Wɔyɛɛ saa, na Hesekia nyaa ahoɔden.
Tete Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Tu gbotsetsewo wòabla nyuie.” Wotui eye wokae ɖo ƒoƒoeawo dzi nɛ eye eƒe lãme se.
8 Ansa na ɔrebɛnya ayaresa no, Hesekia bisaa Yesaia sɛ, “Nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bɛn na Awurade bɛyɛ, de akyerɛ sɛ ɔbɛsa me yadeɛ, na matumi akɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu nnansa so?”
Hezekia bia Yesaya be, “Nu kae anye dzesi be Yehowa ayɔ dɔm eye mayi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me ŋkeke etɔ̃ tso egbe sia dzi?”
9 Yesaia buaa sɛ, “Yei ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a Awurade bɛyɛ akyerɛ wo sɛ ɔbɛdi ne bɔhyɛ so. Wopɛ sɛ sunsum a ɛda sunsumma susuniwa no kɔ nʼanim anammɔntuo edu anaa ɛsane nʼakyi anammɔntuo edu?”
Yesaya ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Esiae nye Yehowa ƒe dzesi na wò be Yehowa awɔ nu si ƒe ŋugbe wòdo; àdi be vɔvɔli nayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo loo wòayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewoa?”
10 Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Sunsum no kɔ nʼanim ɛberɛ biara. Na mmom, ma ɛnkɔ nʼakyi.”
Hezekia gblɔ nɛ be, “Enye nu bɔbɔe be vɔvɔli nayi ŋgɔ ɖoƒe ewo, eya ta na wòayi megbe ɖoƒe ewo boŋ.”
11 Enti, Yesaia bisaa Awurade sɛ ɔnyɛ yei, na ɔmaa sunsum no tete sane nʼakyi anammɔntuo edu wɔ Ahas sunsumma susuniwa no so.
Tete Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya do ɣli na Yehowa eye Yehowa na vɔvɔli yi megbe ɖoƒe ewo le Ahaz ƒe ɣega te.
12 Yei akyi, Babiloniahene Baladan babarima Merodak-Baladan soma ma wɔkɔmaa Hesekia tirinkwa ne akyɛdeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na wate sɛ yare denden bi bɔɔ Hesekia.

13 Hesekia gyee Babilonia ananmusifoɔ yi, kyerɛɛ wɔn biribiara a ɔwɔ wɔ nʼadekoradan mu a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, nnuhwam ne ngo a ɛyɛ hwam. Afei nso, ɔde wɔn kɔɔ nʼadekorabea, sane kyerɛɛ wɔn nʼadekoradan mu biribiara. Biribiara nni nʼahemfie hɔ anaa nʼahemman mu hɔ a Hesekia ankyerɛ wɔn.

14 Na odiyifoɔ Yesaia kɔɔ ɔhene Hesekia nkyɛn, kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na saa nnipa no repɛ? Na wɔfiri he na wɔbaeɛ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔfiri Babilonia akyirikyiri asase so pɛɛ.”
Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya yi Fia Hezekia gbɔ eye wòbiae be, “Nu ka dim ame siawo le? Afi ka wotso?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Wotso Babilonia ke.”
15 Yesaia bisaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wɔhunuu wɔ wʼahemfie hɔ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔhunuu biribiara a ɛwɔ mʼahemfie ha. Biribiara nni mʼademudeɛ mu a mamfa ankyerɛ wɔn.”
Yesaya biae be, “Nu kawoe wokpɔ le wò fiasã me?” Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Metsɔ nye kesinɔnuwo katã fia wo.”
16 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia sɛ, “Tie saa asɛm a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn yi:
Yesaya gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖo to Yehowa ƒe nya sia:

19 Na Hesekia ka kyerɛɛ Yesaia sɛ, “Saa asɛm yi a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn a woaka akyerɛ me yi yɛ asɛm papa.” Nanso, na ɔhene no redwene sɛ, “Me berɛ so deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ yɛnya asomdwoeɛ ne banbɔ.”
Hezekia ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa ƒe nya si nègblɔ la nyo.” Ke nu si tututu wòbu le eɖokui me lae nye, “Ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ ɖeɖe nanɔ anyi le nye ŋutɔ nye agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo me ko!”
