Isaiah 38
1 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Hesekiah ṣe àìsàn dé ojú ikú. Wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi sì lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Ohun tí Olúwa wí nìyìí: Palẹ̀ ilé è rẹ mọ́, bí ó ti yẹ nítorí pé ìwọ yóò kú; ìwọ kì yóò dìde àìsàn yìí.”
In those days Hezekiah fell sick unto death; and there came unto him Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Give thy charge to thy house; for thou shalt die, and not live.
2 Hesekiah yí ojú u rẹ̀ sí ara ògiri, ó sì gba àdúrà sí Olúwa,
Then did Hezekiah turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord.
3 “Rántí, Ìwọ Olúwa, bí mo ti rìn pẹ̀lú òtítọ́ níwájú rẹ, àti bí mo ti fi ọkàn dídúró ṣinṣin ṣe ohun tí ó dára ní ojú ù rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Hesekiah sì sọkún kíkorò.
And he said, O Lord, I beseech thee remember now that I have walked before thee in truth, and with an undivided heart, and have done what is good in thy eyes. And Hezekiah wept aloud.
4 Lẹ́yìn náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Isaiah wá pé,
Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
5 “Lọ kí o sì sọ fún Hesekiah pé, ‘Ohun tí Olúwa wí nìyìí, Ọlọ́run Dafidi baba rẹ sọ pé, Èmi ti gbọ́ àdúrà rẹ mo sì ti rí omijé rẹ, Èmi yóò fi ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún kún ọjọ́ ayé rẹ.
Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6 Èmi yóò sì gba ìwọ àti ìlú yìí sílẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọba Asiria. Èmi yóò sì dáàbò bo ìlú yìí.
And out of the hand of the king of Assyria will I deliver thee and this city; and I will shield this city.
7 “‘Èyí yìí ni àmì tí Olúwa fún ọ láti fihàn wí pé Olúwa yóò mú ìpinnu rẹ̀ ṣẹ.
And this shall be unto thee the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing which he hath spoken:
8 Èmi yóò mú òjìji oòrùn kí ó padà sẹ́yìn ní ìṣísẹ̀ mẹ́wàá nínú èyí tí ó fi sọ̀kalẹ̀ ní ibi àtẹ̀gùn ti Ahasi.’” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni oòrùn padà sẹ́yìn ní ìṣísẹ̀ mẹ́wàá sí ibi tí ó ti dé tẹ́lẹ̀.
Behold, I will cause the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down on the dial of Achaz by the sun, to return backward ten degrees. So the sun returned ten degrees, by the degrees which he was gone down.
9 Ìwé tí Hesekiah ọba Juda kọ lẹ́yìn àìsàn rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó ti gbádùn tán.
The writing of Hezekiah the king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:
10 Èmi wí pé, “Ní àárín gbùngbùn ọjọ́ ayé mi èmi ó ha kọjá lọ ní ibodè ikú kí a sì dùn mí ní àwọn ọdún mi tí ó ṣẹ́kù?” (Sheol h7585)
I had said, In the midst of my days, must I enter the gates of the nether world; I am deprived of the residue of my years. (Sheol h7585)
11 Èmi wí pé, “Èmi kì yóò lè tún rí Olúwa mọ́, àní Olúwa, ní ilẹ̀ àwọn alààyè; èmi kì yóò lè síjú wo ọmọ ènìyàn mọ́, tàbí kí n wà pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó sì ń gbe orílẹ̀ ayé báyìí.
I had said, I shall not see the Lord, the Lord, in the land of the living: I shall not behold man any more among the inhabitants of the regions of death.
12 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgọ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, ilé mi ni a ti wó lulẹ̀ tí a sì gbà kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ahunṣọ mo ti ká ayé mi nílẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun sì ti ké mi kúrò lára àṣà; ọ̀sán àti òru ni ìwọ ṣe òpin mi.
My dwelling is broken down, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off, like a weaver, my life; with pining sickness will he snatch me away: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.
13 Èmi fi sùúrù dúró títí di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, ṣùgbọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí kìnnìún ó ti fọ́ gbogbo egungun mi; ọ̀sán àti òru ni ìwọ fi ṣe òpin mi.
I waited [with patience] till morning, [whether] as a lion, so would he break all my bones: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.
14 Èmi dún gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkọ̀ tàbí alápáǹdẹ̀dẹ̀, èmi káàánú gẹ́gẹ́ bí aṣọ̀fọ̀ àdàbà. Ojú mi rẹ̀wẹ̀sì gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti ń wo àwọn ọ̀run. Ìdààmú bá mi, Ìwọ Olúwa, wá fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi!”
Like a swallow or a crane, so did I chirp; I did moan like a dove; my eyes were lifted up on high: O Lord, I am oppressed; grant me ease.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ni èmi lè sọ? Òun ti bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ àti pé òun tìkára rẹ̀ ló ti ṣe èyí. Èmi yóò máa rìn ní ìrẹ̀lẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́ mi nítorí ìpọ́njú ẹ̀mí mi yìí.
What shall I speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages [to God's house] all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.
16 Olúwa, nípa nǹkan báwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ènìyàn ń gbé; àti pé ẹ̀mí mi rí iyè nínú wọn pẹ̀lú. Ìwọ dá ìlera mi padà kí o sì jẹ́ kí n wà láààyè.
O Lord, by these [things men] will live, and in all these [things] is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause me to live.
17 Nítòótọ́ fún àlàáfíà ara mi ni, ní ti pé mo ní ìkorò ńlá. Nínú ìfẹ́ rẹ ìwọ pa mí mọ́, kúrò nínú ọ̀gbun ìparun; ìwọ sì ti fi gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi sí ẹ̀yìn rẹ.
Behold, for peace I had great bitterness; but thou hast, in loving my soul, delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast behind thy back all my sins.
18 Nítorí pé isà òkú kò le è yìn ọ́, ipò òkú kò le è kọ orin ìyìn rẹ; àwọn tí ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ sínú ọ̀gbun kò lè ní ìrètí fún òtítọ́ rẹ. (Sheol h7585)
For the nether world will not thank thee, death will not praise thee: they that go down into the pit will not hope for thy truth. (Sheol h7585)
19 Alààyè, àwọn alààyè wọ́n ń yìn ọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti ń ṣe lónìí; àwọn baba sọ fún àwọn ọmọ wọn nípa òtítọ́ rẹ.
The living, the living alone shall thank thee, like me this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
20 Olúwa yóò gbà mí là bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwa yóò sì kọrin pẹ̀lú ohun èlò olókùn ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé wa nínú tẹmpili ti Olúwa.
The Lord is there to help me; therefore we will play my hymns all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
21 Isaiah ti sọ pé, “Pèsè ìṣù ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ (ohun gbígbóná tí a dì mọ́ ojú egbò) kí o sì fi sí ojú oówo náà, òun yóò sì gbádùn.”
And Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the inflammation, and he shall recover.
22 Hesekiah sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni yóò jẹ́ àmì pé èmi yóò gòkè lọ sí tẹmpili Olúwa?”
And Hezekiah had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?
