< 2 Chronicles 32 >
1 Lẹ́yìn gbogbo èyí ti Hesekiah ti fi òtítọ́ ṣe, Sennakeribu ọba Asiria wá ó sì gbógun ti Juda. Ó gbógun ti àwọn ìlú ààbò, ó ń ronú láti ṣẹ́gun wọn fún ara rẹ̀.
Now after these things and this true-hearted work, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came into Judah, and put his army in position before the walled towns of Judah, designing to make his way into them by force.
2 Nígbà tí Hesekiah rí i pé Sennakeribu ti wá, àti pé ó fẹ́ láti dá ogun sílẹ̀ lórí Jerusalẹmu,
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come for the purpose of fighting against Jerusalem,
3 Ó gbèrò pẹ̀lú àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ láti di orísun omi ní ìta ìlú ńlá, wọ́n sì ràn án lọ́wọ́.
He took up with his rulers and men of war the question of stopping up the water-springs outside the town; and they gave him their support.
4 Ọ̀pọ̀ ogun ọkùnrin péjọ, wọ́n sì dí gbogbo àwọn orísun àti àwọn omi tó ń sàn tí ó ń sàn gba ti ilẹ̀ náà. “Kí ni ó dé tí àwọn ọba Asiria fi wá tí wọ́n sì rí ọ̀pọ̀ omi?” Wọ́n wí.
So they got together a great number of people, and had all the water-springs and the stream flowing through the land stopped up, saying, Why let the kings of Assyria come and have much water?
5 Nígbà náà ó ṣiṣẹ́ gidigidi ní títún gbogbo ara ògiri tí ó ti bàjẹ́ ṣe, ó sì ń kọ́ àwọn ilé ìṣọ́ gíga sókè rẹ̀. Ó kọ́ ògiri mìíràn sí ìta. Ó sì tún pẹ̀lú ibi ìtẹ́jú ilé ní ti ìlú ńlá Dafidi. Ó ṣe ọ̀pọ̀ iye ohun ìjà àti àwọn àpáta.
Then he took heart, building up the wall where it was broken down, and making its towers higher, and building another wall outside; and he made strong the Millo in the town of David, and got together a great store of all sorts of instruments of war.
6 Ó yan àwọn ìjòyè ológun sórí àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì pè wọ́n jọ, níwájú rẹ̀ ní ìbámu ní ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi. Ó sì ki wọ́n láyà pẹ̀lú àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí:
And he put war chiefs over the people, and sent for them all to come together to him in the wide place at the doorway into the town, and to give them heart he said to them,
7 “Ẹ jẹ́ alágbára, àti kí ẹ sì ní ìgboyà. Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù tàbí ní ìrẹ̀wẹ̀sì ọkàn nítorí tí ọba Asiria àti ọ̀pọ̀ ọmọ-ogun pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, nítorí tí agbára ńlá wà pẹ̀lú wa ju òun lọ.
Be strong and take heart; have no fear, and do not be troubled on account of the king of Assyria and all the great army with him: for there is a greater with us.
8 Agbára ẹran-ara nìkan ni ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa pẹ̀lú wa láti ràn wá lọ́wọ́ àti láti ja ìjà wa.” Àwọn ènìyàn sì ní ìgboyà láti ara ohun tí Hesekiah ọba Juda wí.
With him is an arm of flesh; but we have the Lord our God, helping us and fighting for us. And the people put their faith in what Hezekiah, king of Judah, said.
9 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Sennakeribu ọba Asiria àti gbogbo àwọn ogun rẹ̀ ń gbógun sí Lakiṣi. Ó rán àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ sí Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú iṣẹ́ yí fún Hesekiah ọba Juda àti fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda tí ó wà níbẹ̀:
After this, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, sent his servants to Jerusalem (at that time he was stationed with all his army in front of Lachish), to say to Hezekiah and all the men of Judah in Jerusalem,
10 “Èyí ni ohun tí Sennakeribu ọba Asiria wí, ‘Lórí kí ni ẹ̀yin gbé ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé yín lé, tí ẹ̀yin fi dúró sí Jerusalẹmu lábẹ́ ìgbógun sí?’
Sennacherib, king of Assyria, says, In what are you placing your hope, waiting here in the walled town of Jerusalem?
11 Nígbà tí Hesekiah wí pé, ‘Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò gbà wá kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọba Asiria,’ ó ń ṣì yín tọ́ ṣọ́nà, kí ẹ bá lè kú fún ebi àti òǹgbẹ.
Is it not Hezekiah who has got you to do it, causing your death from need of food and water, by saying, The Lord our God will give us salvation out of the hands of the king of Assyria?
12 Ṣé Hesekiah fúnra rẹ̀ kò mú àwọn ọlọ́run ibi gíga àti àwọn pẹpẹ kúrò, tí ó ń wí fún Juda àti Jerusalẹmu pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin gbọdọ̀ sìn níwájú pẹpẹ kan àti láti sun àwọn ẹbọ lórí rẹ̀’?
Has not this same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, Give worship before one altar only, burning offerings on it?
13 “Ṣé ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀ ohun tí èmi àti àwọn baba mi ti ṣe sí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ mìíràn? Ǹjẹ́ àwọn Ọlọ́run tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè mìíràn ní agbára láti gba ilẹ̀ wọn kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi?
Have you no knowledge of what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of every land? were the gods of the nations of those lands able to keep their land from falling into my hands?
14 Ta ni nínú gbogbo àwọn òrìṣà orílẹ̀-èdè wọ̀nyí tí àwọn baba mi ti parun, tí ó le gbà ènìyàn rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ mi, tí Ọlọ́run yín yóò fi le gbà yín lọ́wọ́ mi?
Who was there among all the gods of those nations, which my fathers put to destruction, who was able to keep his people safe from my hands? and is it possible that your God will keep you safe from my hands?
15 Nísinsin yìí, ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah ó tàn yín àti ṣì yín tọ́ ṣọ́nà báyìí. Ẹ má ṣe gbà á gbọ́, nítorí tí kò sí ọlọ́run orílẹ̀-èdè mìíràn tàbí ìjọba tí ó ní agbára láti gba àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi tàbí lọ́wọ́ àwọn baba mi, mélòó mélòó wa ni Ọlọ́run yín tí yóò gbà yín kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi!”
So do not be tricked by Hezekiah or let him get you to do this, and do not put any faith in what he says: for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to keep his people safe from my hands, or the hands of my fathers: how much less will your God keep you safe from my hands!
16 Àwọn ìjòyè Sennakeribu sọ̀rọ̀ síwájú sí i ní ìlòdì sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àti sí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Hesekiah.
And his servants said even more against the Lord God and against his servant Hezekiah.
17 Ọba pẹ̀lú sì kọ àwọn ìwé ní bíbú Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli àti ní sísọ èyí ní ìlòdì sí: “Ní gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ọlọ́run àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ mìíràn kò ṣe gba àwọn ènìyàn wọn kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Ọlọ́run Hesekiah kì yóò gba àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi.”
And he sent letters, in addition, to put shame on the Lord, the God of Israel, and to say evil against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of other lands have not been able to keep their people safe from my hands, no more will the God of Hezekiah keep his people safe from my hands.
18 Lẹ́yìn náà wọ́n pè jáde ní èdè Heberu sí àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu tí ó wà lára ògiri, láti dá ọjọ́ fún wọn, ki wọn kí ó lè fi agbára mú ìlú náà.
These things they said, crying out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, with the purpose of troubling them and putting fear into them, so that they might take the town;
19 Wọ́n sọ̀rọ̀ nípa Ọlọ́run Jerusalẹmu bí wọ́n ti ṣe nípa àwọn ọlọ́run àwọn ènìyàn mìíràn ti àgbáyé, iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.
Talking of the God of Jerusalem as if he was like the gods of the peoples of the earth, the work of men's hands.
20 Ọba Hesekiah àti wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi sọkún jáde nínú àdúrà sí ọ̀run nípa èyí.
And Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, made prayer because of this, crying out to heaven.
21 Olúwa sì ran angẹli tí ó pa gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun àti àwọn adarí àti àwọn ìjòyè tí ó wà nínú àgọ́ ọba Asiria run. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó padà sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ní ìtìjú. Nígbà tí ó sì lọ sínú ilé ọlọ́run rẹ̀, díẹ̀ nínú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ gé e lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà.
And the Lord sent an angel who put to death all the men of war and the chiefs and the captains in the army of the king of Assyria. So he went back to his country in shame. And when he came into the house of his god, his sons, the offspring of his body, put him to death there with the sword.
22 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa yọ Hesekiah àti àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu kúrò lọ́wọ́ Sennakeribu ọba Asiria àti lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn mìíràn. Ó tọ́jú wọn ní gbogbo ọ̀nà.
So the Lord gave Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem salvation from the power of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, and from all others, giving them rest on every side.
23 Ọ̀pọ̀ mú ọrẹ wá sí Jerusalẹmu fún Olúwa àti àwọn ẹ̀bùn iyebíye fún Hesekiah ọba Juda. Ó sì gbéga lójú gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè lẹ́yìn náà.
And great numbers came to Jerusalem with offerings for the Lord, and things of great price for Hezekiah, king of Judah: so that he was honoured among all nations from that time.
24 Ní ọjọ́ wọ́n nì Hesekiah ṣe àárẹ̀, ó sì dójú ikú. Ó gbàdúrà sí Olúwa tí ó dá a lóhùn, tí ó sì fún un ní àmì àgbàyanu.
In those days Hezekiah was ill and near death; and he made prayer to the Lord, and the Lord in answer gave him a sign.
25 Ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn Hesekiah ṣe ìgbéraga, kò sì kọbi ara sí i inú rere tí a fihàn án. Nítorí náà, ìbínú Olúwa wà lórí rẹ̀ àti lórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
But Hezekiah did not do as had been done to him; for his heart was lifted up in pride; and so wrath came on him and on Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Nígbà náà ni Hesekiah ronúpìwàdà ní ti ìgbéraga ọkàn rẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, nítorí náà, ìbínú Olúwa kò wá sí orí wọn ní ìgbà àwọn ọjọ́ Hesekiah.
But then, Hezekiah, in sorrow for what he had done, put away his pride; and he and all Jerusalem made themselves low, so that the wrath of the Lord did not come on them in Hezekiah's life-time.
27 Hesekiah ní ọ̀pọ̀ ọrọ̀ ńlá àti ọlá, ó sì ṣe àwọn ilé ìṣúra fún fàdákà àti wúrà rẹ̀ àti fún àwọn òkúta iyebíye rẹ̀, àwọn tùràrí olóòórùn dídùn àwọn àpáta àti gbogbo oríṣìí nǹkan iyebíye.
And Hezekiah had very great wealth and honour; and he made himself store-houses for his gold and silver and jewels and spices, and for body-covers and all sorts of beautiful vessels.
28 Ó kọ́ àwọn ilé pẹ̀lú láti tọ́jú àwọn ọkà àwọn tí wọ́n ka, ọtí tuntun àti òróró; ó sì ṣe àwọn àtíbàbà fún oríṣìí àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn àti àwọn àṣémọ́ fun àwọn ọ̀wọ̀ ẹran.
And store-houses for the produce of grain and wine and oil; and buildings for all sorts of beasts and flocks.
29 Ó kọ́ àwọn ìletò, ó sì gba ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ẹran àti agbo ẹran, nítorí tí Ọlọ́run ti fún un ní ọ̀pọ̀ ọrọ̀ ńlá.
And he made towns for himself, and got together much property in flocks and herds: for God had given him great wealth.
30 Hesekiah ni ó dí ojú ìṣúra apá òkè ti orísun Gihoni. Ó sì gbe gba ìsàlẹ̀ sí ìhà ìwọ oòrùn ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi. Ó ṣe àṣeyọrí rere nínú gbogbo ohun tí ó dáwọ́lé.
It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. In everything he undertook, Hezekiah did well.
31 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí a rán àwọn oníṣẹ́ ọba wá láti Babeli láti bi í lérè nípa àmì ìyanu tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ nì, Ọlọ́run fi sílẹ̀ láti dán an wò àti láti mọ gbogbo nǹkan tí ó wà lọ́kàn rẹ̀.
However, in the business of the representatives sent by the rulers of Babylon to get news of the wonder which had taken place in the land, God gave up guiding him, testing him to see what was in his heart.
32 Gbogbo iṣẹ́ yòókù ti ìjọba Hesekiah àti àwọn ìṣe rẹ̀, ìfarajì rẹ̀ ni a kọ sínú ìwé ìran wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi nínú ìwé àwọn ọba Juda àti Israẹli
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and the good he did, are recorded in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Hesekiah sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀. A sì sin ín sórí òkè níbi tí àwọn ibojì àwọn àtẹ̀lé Dafidi wà. Gbogbo Juda àti àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu ni ó bu ọlá fún un nígbà tí ó kú. Manase ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
So Hezekiah went to rest with his fathers, and they put his body into the higher part of the resting-places of the sons of David: and all Judah and the people of Jerusalem gave him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son became king in his place.
