2 Kings 19
1 Nígbà tí ọba Hesekiah gbọ́ èyí, ó fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya ó sì wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ ó sì lọ sí àgọ́ Olúwa
AND it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
2 Ó sì rán Eliakimu olùtọ́jú ààfin, Ṣebna akọ̀wé àti olórí àlùfáà gbogbo wọn sì wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀, sí ọ̀dọ̀ wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi.
And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 Wọ́n sì sọ fún ún pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Hesekiah sọ: ọjọ́ òní yí jẹ́ ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú àti ìbáwí àti ẹ̀gàn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà tí ọmọdé wá sí ojú ìbímọ tí kò sì sí agbára láti fi bí wọn.
And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
4 Ó lè jẹ́ wí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yóò gbọ́ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ olùdarí pápá, ẹni tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀, ọba Asiria, ti rán láti fi Ọlọ́run alààyè ṣẹ̀sín, yóò sì bá a wí fún ọ̀rọ̀ ti Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ti gbọ́. Nítorí náà gbàdúrà fún ìyókù àwọn tí ó wà láààyè.”
It may be the Lord thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ ọba Hesekiah lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Isaiah,
So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 Isaiah wí fún wọn pé, “Sọ fún ọ̀gá rẹ, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ pé: Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù ohun tí ẹ̀yin ti gbọ́—àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ìhàlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú èyí ti ọba Asiria ti sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí mi.
And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 Gbọ́! Èmi yóò rán ẹ̀mí kan sínú rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó bá sì gbọ́ ariwo, yóò sì padà sí ìlú rẹ̀, níbẹ̀ ni èmi yóò sì gbé gé e lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà.’”
Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
8 Nígbà tí olùdarí pápá gbọ́ wí pé ọba Asiria ti kúrò ní Lakiṣi ó sì padà ó sì rí ọba níbi ti ó gbé ń bá Libina jà.
So Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
9 Nísinsin yìí, Sennakeribu sì gbọ́ ìròyìn wí pé Tirakah, ọba Etiopia ti Ejibiti wá ó sì ń yan jáde lọ láti lọ bá a jagun. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì tún rán oníṣẹ́ sí Hesekiah pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ yìí pé,
And when he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, Behold, he is come out to fight against thee: he sent messengers again unto Hezekiah, saying,
10 “Sọ fún Hesekiah ọba Juda pé, má ṣe jẹ́ kí òrìṣà tí ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé kí ó tàn ó jẹ nígbà tí ó wí pé, ‘Jerusalẹmu a kò ní fi lé ọwọ́ ọba Asiria.’
Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God in whom thou trustest deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Lóòótọ́ ìwọ ti gbọ́ gbogbo ohun tí ọba Asiria tí ó ṣe sí gbogbo àwọn ìlú, ó pa wọ́n run pátápátá. Ìwọ yóò sì gbàlà?
Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou be delivered?
12 Ṣé àwọn òrìṣà orílẹ̀-èdè tí a ti parun láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn baba ńlá mi gbà wọ́n là: òrìṣà Gosani, Harani Reṣefu àti gbogbo ènìyàn Edeni tí wọ́n wà ní Teli-Assari?
Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my fathers have destroyed; as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which were in Thelasar?
13 Níbo ni ọba Hamati wa, ọba Arpadi, ọba ìlú Sefarfaimi, ti Hena, tàbí ti Iffa gbé wà?”
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?
14 Hesekiah gba lẹ́tà láti ọ̀dọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ ó sì kà á. Nígbà náà ó sì lọ sí òkè ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa ó sì tẹ́ ẹ síwájú Olúwa.
And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord.
15 Hesekiah gbàdúrà sí Olúwa: “Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, tí ń gbé ní àárín àwọn kérúbù, ìwọ nìkan ni Ọlọ́run lórí gbogbo ìjọba tí ó wà láyé, ìwọ ti dá ọ̀run àti ayé.
And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord, and said, O Lord God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.
16 Dẹtí sílẹ̀, Olúwa kí o sì gbọ́; la ojú rẹ, Olúwa, kí o sì rí i, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Sennakeribu tí ó rán láti fi bú Ọlọ́run alààyè.
Lord, bow down thine ear, and hear: open, Lord, thine eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent him to reproach the living God.
17 “Òtítọ́ ni, Olúwa, wí pé ọba Asiria ti pa orílẹ̀-èdè wọ̀nyí run àti ilẹ̀ wọn.
Of a truth, Lord, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,
18 Wọ́n ti ju òrìṣà wọn sínú iná wọn sì ti bà wọ́n jẹ́, nítorí pé wọn kì í ṣe ọlọ́run. Ṣùgbọ́n, wọ́n jẹ́ igi àti òkúta tí a ṣe lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ ènìyàn.
And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.
19 Nísinsin yìí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, gbà wá kúrò lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ìjọba lórí ilẹ̀ ayé le mọ̀ pé ìwọ nìkan ṣoṣo ni, Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.”
Now therefore, O Lord our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord God, even thou only.
20 Nígbà náà Isaiah ọmọ Amosi rán oníṣẹ́ sí Hesekiah pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ: Mo ti gbọ́ àdúrà rẹ nípa ti Sennakeribu ọba Asiria.
Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.
21 Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa ti sọ nípa rẹ̀, “‘Wúńdíá ọmọbìnrin Sioni kẹ́gàn rẹ ó sì fi ọ́ ṣe ẹlẹ́yà. Ọmọbìnrin Jerusalẹmu mi orí sí ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti sálọ.
This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
22 Ta ni ìwọ ti bú tí o sì kẹ́gàn rẹ̀? Lórí ta ni ìwọ ti gbé ohùn rẹ sókè tí ó sì gbé ojú sókè sí ọ ní ìgbéraga? Lórí ẹni mímọ́ ti Israẹli!
Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.
23 Nípa àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ìwọ ti sọ̀rọ̀ búburú sí Olúwa. Tì wọ sì wí pé, “Pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́ mi ni èmi sì fi dé orí àwọn òkè ńlá, sí ibi gíga jùlọ Lebanoni. Èmi a sì ké igi kedari gíga rẹ̀ lulẹ̀, àti ààyò igi firi rẹ̀. Èmi a sì lọ sí orí òkè ìbùwọ̀ rẹ̀ sínú ibi tí ó dára jù nínú igbó rẹ̀.
By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.
24 Mo ti gbẹ́ kànga ní ilẹ̀ àjèjì, mo sì mu omi níbẹ̀. Pẹ̀lú àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ mi, èmi ti gbẹ́ gbogbo omi odò tí ó wà ní Ejibiti.”
I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.
25 “‘Ṣé ìwọ kò tí ì gbọ́? Ní ọjọ́ pípẹ́ sẹ́yìn mo yàn án. Ní ọjọ́ ogbó ni mo ṣètò rẹ̀; nísinsin yìí mo ti mú wá sí ìkọjá pé ìwọ ti yí ìlú olódi padà dí òkìtì àlàpà òkúta.
Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.
26 Àwọn ènìyàn wọn ń gbẹ nípa, wọ́n ti dà á láàmú wọ́n sì ti ṣọ́ di ìtìjú. Wọ́n dàbí koríko igbó lórí pápá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkà tí ó rẹ̀ dànù kí ó tó dàgbàsókè, gẹ́gẹ́ bí fífún ọkà tí ó hù jáde.
Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.
27 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ ibi tí ìwọ dúró àti ìgbà tí ìwọ bá dé tàbí lọ àti bí ìwọ ṣe ìkáàánú rẹ: sí mi.
But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n ìkáàánú rẹ sí mi àti ìrora rẹ dé etí mi, Èmi yóò gbé ìwọ̀ mi sí imú rẹ àti ìjánu mi sí ẹnu rẹ, èmi yóò mú ọ padà nípa wíwá rẹ.’
Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
29 “Èyí yóò jẹ́ àmì fún ọ, ìwọ Hesekiah: “Ọdún yìí ìwọ yóò jẹ ohun tí ó bá hù fún rara rẹ̀, àti ní ọdún kejì ohun tí ó bá hù jáde láti inú ìyẹn. Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún kẹta, gbìn kí o sì kórè, gbin ọgbà àjàrà kí o sì jẹ èso rẹ̀.
And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits thereof.
30 Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i ìyókù ti ilé Juda yóò sì tún hu gbòǹgbò lábẹ́, yóò sì so èso lókè.
And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
31 Láti inú Jerusalẹmu ní àwọn ìyókù yóò ti wá àti láti orí òkè Sioni ni ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn tí ó sá àsálà. Ìtara Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun yóò ṣe èyí.
For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall do this.
32 “Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ nípa ti ọba Asiria: “Kò ní wọ ìlú yìí tàbí ta ọfà síbí. Kò ní wá níwájú rẹ pẹ̀lú àpáta tàbí kó ìdọ̀tí àgbò sí ọ̀kánkán rẹ.
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
33 Nípa ọ̀nà tí ó gbà wá ni yóò padà; kì yóò wọ ìlú ńlá yìí, ni Olúwa wí.
By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the Lord.
34 Èmi yóò dá ààbò bo ìlú ńlá yìí, èmi yóò sì pa á mọ́ fún èmi tìkára mi àti fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi.”
For I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.
35 Ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, angẹli Olúwa jáde lọ ó sì pa ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́sàn-án lé ẹgbẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n ènìyàn ní ibùdó àwọn ará Asiria. Nígbà tí wọ́n sì dìde dúró ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì níbẹ̀ ni gbogbo òkú wà!
And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the Lord went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
36 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Sennakeribu ọba Asiria wọ àgọ́ ó sì padà, ó sì padà sí Ninefe ó sì dúró níbẹ̀.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
37 Ní ọjọ́ kan, nígbà tí ó sùn nínú ilé òrìṣà Nisroki, ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ Adrameleki àti Ṣareseri gé e lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà, wọ́n sì sálọ sí ilẹ̀ Ararati Esarhadoni ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
