1 Ke na pacl se Tokosra Hezekiah el lohng ma elos fahk nu sel, el asor ac seya nuknuk lal ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa, ac som nu in Tempul lun LEUM GOD.
When King Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the LORD’s house.
2 El supwalla Eliakim, mwet liyaung inkul sin tokosra, Shebna, mwet sim lun inkul fulat, ac mwet ma matu inmasrlon mwet tol, nu yorol mwet palu Isaiah wen natul Amoz. Elos oayapa nukum nuknuk yohk eoa.
He sent Eliakim, who was over the household, Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
3 Pa inge kas ma el sap elos in fahk nu sel Isaiah: “Misenge sie len in keok. Kalyeiyuk ac akmwekinyeyuk kut. Kut oana sie mutan su akola in isus, tuh munas ac tia ku in orala.
They said to him, “Hezekiah says, ‘Today is a day of trouble, of rebuke, and of rejection; for the children have come to the point of birth, and there is no strength to deliver them.
4 Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el supwama leum lun mwet fulat lal in tuh fahk kas in angon LEUM GOD moul. Finsrak LEUM GOD lom Elan lohng kas in angonkas lalos inge ac sang kai nu selos su fahk ma inge uh. Ke ma inge, pre nu sin God ke mwet lasr su painmoulla.”
It may be the LORD your God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to defy the living God, and will rebuke the words which the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.’”
5 Ke Isaiah el eis kas sel Tokosra Hezekiah inge
So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 el topkol ouinge: “LEUM GOD El fahk nu sum mu kom in tia lela mwet Assyria in aksangengye kom ke elos fahk mu El ac tia ku in molikomla.
Isaiah said to them, “Tell your master this: ‘The LORD says, “Don’t be afraid of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
7 LEUM GOD El ac oru Tokosra Fulat elan lohng sie sramsram su ac oru elan folokla nu in facl sel sifacna, ac LEUM GOD El ac fah oru tuh in anwuki el we.”
Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he will hear news, and will return to his own land. I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.”’”
8 Mwet leum se lun Assyria el etauk lah Tokosra Fulat el som liki acn Lachish, ac mweuni siti Libnah su oan apkuran nu Lachish. Ouinge el som in sramsram nu sel.
So Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
9 Kas se sun mwet Assyria lah mwet mweun lun acn Egypt, kolyuk sin Tokosra Tirhakah lun Ethiopia, ac tuku in mweunelos. Ke Tokosra Fulat el lohng ma inge el supwala leta se nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah lun Judah
When he heard it said of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, “Behold, he has come out to fight against you,” he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
10 in tuh fahk nu sel, “God se ma kom lulalfongi El fahk nu sum mu kom ac tia sruhu sik, tusruktu nimet kom lela ma inge in kiapwekomla.
“Tell Hezekiah king of Judah this: ‘Don’t let your God in whom you trust deceive you, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Kom lohng tari ma Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria el oru nu sin facl nukewa su el nunkauk elan kunausla. Ku kom nunku mu kom ku in kaingkunla?
Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly. Will you be delivered?
12 Mwet matu luk ma somla elos tuh kunausla siti Gozan, Haran, ac Rezeph, ac onela pac mwet in acn Betheden su muta Telassar, ac wangin sie sin god lalos ku in molelosla.
Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed—Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?
13 Pia tokosra lun siti Hamath, Arpad, Sepharvaim, Hena, ac Ivvah?”
Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?’”
14 Tokosra Hezekiah el eisla leta sac sin mwet ma use ah, ac riti. Na el som nu in Tempul ac likiya leta sac ye mutun LEUM GOD,
Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it. Then Hezekiah went up to the LORD’s house, and spread it before the LORD.
15 ac pre, “O LEUM GOD lun Israel, su muta fin tron lom ma oan lucng liki cherub luo, kom mukena pa God su leum fin tokosrai nukewa faclu. Kom orala kusrao ac faclu.
Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, “LORD, the God of Israel, who are enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, even you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
16 A inge, LEUM GOD, liye ma sikyak nu sesr uh. Porongo ma nukewa su Sennacherib el fahk in angon kom, Leum God moul.
Incline your ear, LORD, and hear. Open your eyes, LORD, and see. Hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to defy the living God.
17 O LEUM GOD, kut nukewa etu lah tokosra fulat lun acn Assyria elos sukela facl puspis,
Truly, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
18 ac esukak god lalos, su tia god pwaye a ma sruloala ma poun mwet orala ke sak ac eot.
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 Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD lasr, molikutla liki mwet Assyria, tuh mutanfahl nukewa fah etu lah kom mukena, O LEUM GOD, pa God.”
Now therefore, LORD our God, save us, I beg you, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, LORD, are God alone.”
20 Na Isaiah el supwala kas nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah in fahk lah lohngyuk pre lal,
Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says ‘You have prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, and I have heard you.
21 ac LEUM GOD el fahk ouinge: “Sennacherib, siti Jerusalem isrun kom ac orek tafunkas keim.
This is the word that the LORD has spoken concerning him: ‘The virgin daughter of Zion has despised you and ridiculed you. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.
22 Su kom nunku mu kom angon ac isrun an? Kom tiana sunakinyu, su LEUM GOD mutal lun Israel.
Whom have you defied and blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice and lifted up your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel!
23 Kom supwama mwet utuk kas lom in tungak nu sik mu chariot puspis nutum oru kom fanukya fineol ma fulat liki nukewa in acn Lebanon. Kom konkin pac mu kom pakiya sak cedar ma loes emeet ac sak cypress ma wo emeet, ac kom sun acn ma loal emeet insak uh.
By your messengers, you have defied the Lord, and have said, “With the multitude of my chariots, I have come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon, and I will cut down its tall cedars and its choice cypress trees; and I will enter into his farthest lodging place, the forest of his fruitful field.
24 Kom konkin pac mu kom pukanak luf in kof ke mutunfacl saya ac nim ke kof we, oayapa falken mwet mweun lom futfutungya Infacl Nile pulamlamla.
I have dug and drunk strange waters, and I will dry up all the rivers of Egypt with the sole of my feet.”
25 “Ya kom soenna lohng lah nga nuna akoela ma inge ke pacl loeloes somla? Ac inge nga orala tari. Nga tuh sot ku nu sum kom in kunausla siti ma potiyukyak nu ke yol in kutkut.
Haven’t you heard how I have done it long ago, and formed it of ancient times? Now I have brought it to pass, that it should be yours to lay waste fortified cities into ruinous heaps.
26 Mwet ma muta in acn ingo wangin ma elos ku in oru. Elos sangengla ac tuninfongla. Elos oana mah inimae, ku mah ma kapak fin lohm uh ke pacl eng fol kutulap me tuhyak ac okla.
Therefore their inhabitants had little power. They were dismayed and confounded. They were like the grass of the field and like the green herb, like the grass on the housetops and like grain blasted before it has grown up.
27 “Tuh nga etu ma nukewa keim — ma kom oru ac acn kom som nu we. Nga etu lupan kasrkusrak lom sik.
But I know your sitting down, your going out, your coming in, and your raging against me.
28 Nga lohng tari pungen kasrkusrak lom ac inse fulat lom, ac inge nga ac sang sie ring srumasrla infwem, ac soko osra nu ke oalum, ac amakin kom folokla inkanek soko na kom tuku kac me.”
Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance has come up into my ears, therefore I will put my hook in your nose, and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.’
29 Na Isaiah el fahk nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah, “Pa inge sie akul ke ma ac fah sikyak. Yac se inge, ac yac fahsru uh, kom ac fah mongona ke wheat inima, tusruktu ke yac se toko an kom ac fah ku in yukwiya wheat sunom ac kosrani pac kac, ac yukwiya fain ac mongo grape kac.
“This will be the sign to you: This year, you will eat that which grows of itself, and in the second year that which springs from that; and in the third year sow and reap, and plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
30 Elos su painmoulla in acn Judah elos ac kapak oana sak ma kapla okah loal nu infohk uh, ac rukruk fahko.
The remnant that has escaped of the house of Judah will again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
31 Ac fah oasr mwet in Jerusalem ac Fineol Zion su ac fah painmoulla, mweyen LEUM GOD El wotela tari sel mu ac ouinge.
For out of Jerusalem a remnant will go out, and out of Mount Zion those who shall escape. The LORD’s zeal will perform this.
32 “Ac pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria: ‘El ac fah tia utyak nu in siti se inge ku pisrikya sokofanna osra in pisr natul nu kac. Wangin mwet mweun su us mwe loeyuk ac fah tuku apkuran nu ke siti uh, oayapa ac fah wangin ma ac etoatyak elos in fanyak kac nu in siti uh.
“Therefore the LORD says concerning the king of Assyria, ‘He will not come to this city, nor shoot an arrow there. He will not come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it.
33 El ac fah folokla ke inkanek sokona el ut we tuku ac, ac tiana utyak nu in siti se inge. Nga, LEUM GOD, fahkla ouinge.
He will return the same way that he came, and he will not come to this city,’ says the LORD.
34 Nga ac loango siti se inge ac liyaung ke sripen Inek sifacna, ac ke sripen wuleang su nga tuh orala nu sel David mwet kulansap luk.”’
‘For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for my servant David’s sake.’”
35 In fong sac sie lipufan lun LEUM GOD som nu yen mwet mweun lun mwet Assyria elos aktuktuk we, ac uniya mwet mweun siofok oalngoul limekosr tausin. Toangna ke lotu se tok ah elos nukewa alapla oan misa!
That night, the LORD’s angel went out and struck one hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians. When men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.
36 Na Sennacherib, Tokosra Fulat lun acn Assyria, el tui ke mweun ah, ac folokla nu Nineveh.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went home, and lived at Nineveh.
37 Sie len ah ke el alu in tempul lal Nisroch, god lal, luo sin wen natul, Adrammelech ac Sharezer, eltal sang cutlass natultal unilya, ac kaingla nu in facl Ararat. Na Esarhaddon, sie pac sin wen natul ah, aolulla in Tokosra Fulat.
As he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer struck him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. Esar Haddon his son reigned in his place.
