1 Ní ọdún kẹrìnlá ìjọba Hesekiah, Sennakeribu ọba Asiria kọlu gbogbo àwọn ìlú olódi ní ilẹ̀ Juda ó sì kó gbogbo wọn.
Nowe in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against al the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.
2 Lẹ́yìn náà, ọba Asiria rán olórí ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọmọ-ogun láti Lakiṣi sí ọba Hesekiah ní Jerusalẹmu. Nígbà tí ọ̀gágun náà dúró níbi ojúṣàn adágún ti apá òkè, ní ojú ọ̀nà sí pápá alágbàfọ̀,
And the King of Asshur sent Rabshakeh from Lachish toward Ierusalem vnto King Hezekiah, with a great hoste, and he stood by ye conduite of the vpper poole in the path of the fullers fielde.
3 Ṣebna Eliakimu ọmọ Hilkiah alábojútó ààfin, Ṣebna akọ̀wé, àti Joah ọmọ Asafu akọ̀wé jáde lọ pàdé rẹ̀.
Then came foorth vnto him Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah the steward of the house, and Shebna the chanceler, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.
4 Ọ̀gágun náà sọ fún wọn wí pé, “Ẹ sọ fún Hesekiah, “‘Èyí yìí ni ohun tí ọba ńlá, ọba Asiria sọ pé: Lórí i kí ni ìwọ gbé ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé tìrẹ yìí lé?
And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell you Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus sayth the great King, the King of Asshur, What confidence is this, wherein thou trustest?
5 Ìwọ sọ wí pé ìwọ ní ète àti agbára ogun—ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ asán. Ta ni ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé tí ìwọ fi ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi?
I say, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre: on whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
6 Wò ó nísinsin yìí, ìwọ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Ejibiti ẹ̀rún igi ọ̀pá lásán tí í gún ni lọ́wọ́ tí í sì í dọ́gbẹ́ sí ni lára tí a bá gbára lé e! Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Farao ọba Ejibiti sí àwọn tí ó bá gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e.
Loe, thou trustest in this broken staffe of reede on Egypt, whereupon if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh King of Egypt, vnto all that trust in him.
7 Bí o bá sì sọ fún mi pé, “Àwa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa,” kì í ṣe òun ni Hesekiah ti mú àwọn ibi gíga àti pẹpẹ rẹ̀ kúrò, tí ó sì wí fún Juda àti Jerusalẹmu pé, “Ẹ̀yin gbọdọ̀ sìn níwájú pẹpẹ yìí”?
But if thou say to me, We trust in the Lord our God. Is not that he, whose hie places and whose altars Hezekiah tooke downe, and said to Iudah and to Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
8 “‘Ẹ wá nísinsin yìí, bá ọ̀gá mi pa ìmọ̀ pọ̀, ọba Asiria, èmi yóò fún ọ ní ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ẹṣin bí ìwọ bá le è fi agẹṣin lé wọn lórí!
Nowe therefore giue hostages to my lorde the King of Asshur, and I wil giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders vpon them.
9 Báwo ni ẹ ṣe lè lé ẹyọ kan ṣoṣo padà nínú èyí tí ó kéré jù nínú àwọn balógun olúwa mi, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ẹ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Ejibiti fún kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin?
For howe canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my lordes seruants? and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and for horsemen?
10 Síwájú sí i, ǹjẹ́ mo wa lè wá bá ilẹ̀ yìí jà kí n sì pa á run láìsí Olúwa? Olúwa fún rara rẹ̀ ló sọ pé kí n bá orílẹ̀-èdè yìí jà kí n sì pa á run.’”
And am I now come vp without the Lord to this land to destroy it? The Lord sayd vnto me, Goe vp against this land and destroy it.
11 Lẹ́yìn náà ni Eliakimu, Ṣebna àti Joah sọ fún ọ̀gágun náà pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ máa bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ sọ̀rọ̀ ní èdè Aramaiki, nítorí pé àwa gbọ́ ọ. Má ṣe bá wa sọ̀rọ̀ ní èdè Heberu ní etí àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà lórí ògiri mọ́.”
Then sayd Eliakim and Shebna and Ioah vnto Rabshakeh, Speake, I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, (for we vnderstand it) and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n aláṣẹ dáhùn pé, “Ṣé fún ọ̀gá rẹ àti ìwọ nìkan ní ọ̀gá mi rán mi sí láti sọ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí kì í sì í ṣe fún àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó jókòó lórí odi ni gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ, ni yóò ní láti jẹ ìgbẹ́ ará wọn kí wọ́n sì mu ìtọ̀ ará wọn?”
Then said Rabshakeh, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee to speake these wordes, and not to the men that sit on the wall? that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you?
13 Lẹ́yìn náà ni ọ̀gágun náà dìde tí ó sì ké síta ní èdè Heberu pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ọba ńlá, ọba Asiria!
So Rabshakeh stood, and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and sayd, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the King of Asshur.
14 Ohun tí ọba wí nìyìí, Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah tàn yín jẹ. Òun kò le è gbà yín sílẹ̀!
Thus saith the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you.
15 Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah rọ̀ yín láti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa nígbà tí ó sọ pé, ‘Olúwa yóò kúkú gbà wá; a kì yóò fi ìlú yìí lé ọba Asiria lọ́wọ́.’
Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs: this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the King of Asshur.
16 “Ẹ má ṣe tẹ́tí sí Hesekiah. Ohun tí ọba Asiria wí nìyìí. Ẹ fi ẹ̀bùn bá mi rẹ́, kí ẹ sì jáde tọ̀ mí wá. Lẹ́yìn náà, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan yín yóò sì jẹ nínú àjàrà àti igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni yóò sì mu omi nínú kànga rẹ̀,
Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus sayth the King of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne fig tree, and drinke euery man the water of his owne well,
17 títí tí èmi yóò fi mú un yín lọ sí ilẹ̀ kan tí ó dàbí i tiyín, ilẹ̀ tí ó ní irúgbìn oníhóró àti wáìnì tuntun, ilẹ̀ tí ó ní àkàrà àti ọgbà àjàrà.
Till I come and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate, and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes,
18 “Ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí Hesekiah ṣì yín lọ́nà nígbà tí ó sọ wí pé, ‘Olúwa yóò gbà wá.’ Ǹjẹ́ ọlọ́run orílẹ̀-èdè kan ha ti gbà á kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọba Asiria bí?
Least Hezekiah deceiue you, saying, The Lord wil deliuer vs. Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his land out of the hand of the King of Asshur?
19 Níbo ni àwọn òrìṣà Hamati àti Arpadi ha wà? Níbo ni àwọn òrìṣà Sefarfaimi ha wà? Ǹjẹ́ wọn ti já Samaria gbà kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi bí?
Where is the god of Hamath, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim? or howe haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?
20 Èwo nínú àwọn òrìṣà orílẹ̀-èdè wọ̀nyí ló ha ti dáàbò bo ilẹ̀ ẹ rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi? Báwo ni Olúwa ṣe wá le gba Jerusalẹmu kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi?”
Who is hee among all the gods of these lands, that hath deliuered their countrey out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?
21 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn náà dákẹ́ rọ́rọ́ wọn kò sì mú èsì kankan wá, nítorí ọba ti pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe dá a lóhùn.”
Then they kept silence, and answered him not a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere him not.
22 Lẹ́yìn náà ni Eliakimu ọmọ Hilkiah alákòóso ààfin, Ṣebna akọ̀wé àti Joah ọmọ Asafu akọ̀wé àkọsílẹ̀ lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Hesekiah pẹ̀lú aṣọ wọn ní fífàya, wọ́n sì sọ ohun tí ọ̀gágun ti wí.
Then came Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah the steward of the house, and Shebna the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder, vnto Hezekiah with rent clothes, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
