Yesaia 39
1 Saa ɛberɛ no Merodak-Baladan a ɔyɛ Babiloniahene Baladan babarima soma ma wɔde krataa ne akyɛdeɛ kɔmaa Hesekia, ɛfiri sɛ na wate sɛ wayare ama ne ho atɔ no.
Nthawi imeneyo Merodaki-Baladani, mwana wa Baladani mfumu ya ku Babuloni anatumiza nthumwi kwa Hezekiya nawapatsira makalata ndi mphatso, pakuti anamva za kudwala kwake ndi kuti anachira.
2 Hesekia gyee asomafoɔ no fɛw so, na afei ɔde deɛ ɔwɔ wɔ nʼakoradan mu kyerɛɛ wɔn: dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, nnuhwam, ngohwam, nʼakodeɛ akoraeɛ ne biribiara a ɛka nʼademudeɛ ho. Biribiara nni nʼahemfie ne nʼahennie mu a Hesekia amfa ankyerɛ wɔn.
Hezekiya anawalandira mwasangala ndipo anawaonetsa zonse zimene zinali mʼnyumba zake zosungiramo siliva, golide, zokometsera zakudya, mafuta abwino kwambiri, zida zonse zankhondo ndiponso zonse zimene zinkapezeka mʼnyumba zake zosungiramo chuma. Panalibe kanthu kalikonse ka mʼnyumba yaufumu kapena mu ufumu wake onse kamene sanawaonetse.
3 Afei Odiyifoɔ Yesaia kɔɔ ɔhene Hesekia nkyɛn, kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Asɛm bɛn na saa mmarima no kaaeɛ na ɛhe na wɔfiri baeɛ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔfiri akyirikyiri asase bi so. Wɔfiri Babilonia, na wɔbaa me nkyɛn.”
Tsono mneneri Yesaya anapita kwa mfumu Hezekiya ndipo anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi anthu aja anakuwuzani chiyani, ndipo anachokera kuti?” Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Anachokera ku dziko lakutali, ku Babuloni.”
4 Odiyifoɔ no bisaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wɔhunuu wɔ wʼahemfie hɔ?” Hesekia buaa sɛ, “Wɔhunuu biribiara a ɛwɔ mʼahemfie ha. Biribiara nni mʼademudeɛ mu a mamfa ankyerɛ wɔn.”
Mneneri anafunsanso kuti, “Kodi mʼnyumba yanu yaufumu anaonamo chiyani?” Hezekiya anati, “Anaona chilichonse cha mʼnyumba yanga yaufumu. Palibe ndi chimodzi chomwe za mʼnyumba yosungiramo chuma changa chimene sindinawaonetse.”
5 Afei, Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia sɛ, “Tie asɛm a ɛfiri Asafo Awurade nkyɛn:
Pamenepo Yesaya anati kwa Hezekiya, “Imvani mawu a Yehova Wamphamvuzonse:
6 Nokorɛm, ɛberɛ bi bɛba a, wɔbɛsoa biribiara a ɛwɔ wʼahemfie ne agyapadeɛ a wʼagyanom akora de abɛduru ɛnnɛ no akɔ Babilonia. Biribiara renka, sei na Awurade seɛ.
Yehova akuti, nthawi idzafika ndithu pamene zonse za mʼnyumba mwanu ndi zonse zimene makolo anu anazisonkhanitsa mpaka lero lino, zidzatengedwa kupita nazo ku Babuloni. Sipadzatsalapo ndi kanthu kamodzi komwe.
7 Na afei wʼasefoɔ mu bi, wʼankasa wo mogya a wɔbɛwo wɔn ama wo no, wɔbɛsoa wɔn akɔ na wɔakɔyɛ apiafoɔ wɔ Babiloniahene ahemfie.”
Ndipo ena mwa ana anu, obala inu amene adzatengedwanso, ndipo adzawasandutsa adindo ofulidwa mʼnyumba ya mfumu ya ku Babuloni.”
8 Hesekia dwenee sɛ ne ɔman no bɛnya asomdwoeɛ ne banbɔ wɔ ne mmerɛ so, enti ɔbuaa sɛ, “Awurade asɛm a woabɛka yi yɛ asɛm papa.”
Hezekiya anayankha kuti, “Mawu a Yehova amene mwayankhula ndi abwino.” Ponena izi iye ankaganiza kuti, “Padzakhala mtendere ndi chitetezo masiku a moyo wanga onse.”
