¹And 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.

¹ Waato kaŋ Bonkoono Hezeciya maa woodin binde, a na nga bankaarayey tooru-tooru, a na bufu zaara haw nga gaa, a koy ka furo Rabbi windo ra.

²And 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.

² A na Eliyacim kaŋ ga faada almayaaley dabari donton mo, nga nda Sebna kaŋ ga tirey hantum, da alfaga ra dottijo zeeney, i go ga daabu nda bufu zaarayaŋ. I koy annabi Isaya, Amoz ize do.

³And 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.

³ I ne a se: «Hezeciya ne: ‹Zaari woone ya taabi nda wowi, da donda-caray zaari no, zama izey to hayyaŋ, gaabi mo si no kaŋ g'i hay.

⁴It may be the LORD thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, 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.

⁴ Hambara Rabbi ni Irikoyo ga maa Rabsake sanney kulu, nga kaŋ a koyo Assiriya bonkoono donton a ma Irikoy Fundikoono kayna, hala Rabbi ni Irikoyo ma kaseeti a gaa sanno kaŋ nga maa din sabbay se. Ni binde, ma ni jinde sambu ka te adduwa jare woone kaŋ cindi se.› »

⁵So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

⁵ Bonkoono Hezeciya tamey mo kaa Isaya do.

⁶And 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.

⁶ Isaya mo ne i se: «Ya-cine no araŋ ga ci araŋ koyo se: Rabbi ne: Ni ma si humburu sanney kaŋ ni maa din, kaŋ yaŋ Assiriya bonkoono tamey n'ay kayna d'a.

⁷Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumor, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

⁷ A go, ay ga biya fo daŋ a ra, a ga maa ruubu fo, a ga ye mo nga laabo ra. Ay mo ga naŋ takuba m'a zeeri noodin a laabo ra.»

⁸So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

⁸ Rabsake mo ye ka koy Assiriya bonkoono do. A n'a gar a goono ga wongu nda Libna kwaara, zama a maa baaru kaŋ a tun Lacis.

⁹And 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,

⁹ A maa Etiyopi bonkoono Tirhaka baaru kaŋ ne: «Guna, a fatta zama nga ma wongu nda nin.» Kala Assiriya bonkoono ye ka diyayaŋ donton Hezeciya gaa ka ne:

¹⁰Thus 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.

¹⁰ «Ya-cine no araŋ ga salaŋ Yahuda bonkoono Hezeciya se d'a, araŋ ma ne a se: ‹Ni Irikoyo kaŋ gaa ni ga de din, a ma si ni halli ka ne Urusalima si furo Assiriya bonkoono kambe ra bo.

¹¹Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou be delivered?

¹¹ A go, ni maa mate kaŋ Assiriya bonkooney te laabu kulu se k'i halaci parkatak. Ni binde, ni ga yana no?

¹²Have 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?

¹² Ndunnya dumey din kaŋ yaŋ ay kaayey halaci sanda Gozan, da Haran, da Resef, da Eden izey kaŋ yaŋ go Telassar ra, i de-koyey n'i faaba no?

¹³Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?

¹³ Man Hamat bonkoono, da Arpad bonkoono, da Sefarbayim gallo wano, da Hena nda Abba wano?› »

¹⁴And 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.

¹⁴ Hezeciya mo na tira ta diyey kambey ra k'a caw. Hezeciya ziji mo ka koy Rabbi windo ra ka tira feeri Rabbi jine.

¹⁵And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubim, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.

¹⁵ Hezeciya na adduwa te Rabbi gaa mo ka ne: «Ya Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo, ciiti malaykey boŋ gorokwa, ni hinne no ga ti Irikoy ndunnya mayrayey kulu ra. Nin no ka beene nda ganda te.

¹⁶LORD, 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.

¹⁶ Ya Rabbi, ma ni hanga jeeri ka maa, ma ni moy fiti ka guna. Ma maa Sennakerib sanney kaŋ a na Rabsake donton d'a zama nga ma Irikoy Fundikoono kayna se.

¹⁷Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,

¹⁷ Daahir, ya Rabbi, Assiriya bonkooney na laabey da ngey batamey halaci.

¹⁸And 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.

¹⁸ I n'i toorey mo catu danji ra, zama manti irikoyyaŋ no, amma borey kambe goyyaŋ no, tuuri nda tondi yaŋ no. Woodin se no i hin k'i halaci.

¹⁹Now 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.

¹⁹ Sohõ mo, ya Rabbi iri Irikoyo, ay ga ni ŋwaaray, m'iri faaba Sennakerib kambe ra, hala ndunnya mayrayey kulu ma bay kaŋ nin, ya Rabbi, ni hinne no ga ti Irikoy.»

²⁰Then 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.

²⁰ Isaya Amoz izo mo donton Hezeciya gaa ka ne a se: «Yaa no Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo ci: Za kaŋ ni na adduwa te ay gaa Assiriya bonkoono Sennakerib ciine ra, ay maa ni se.

²¹This 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.

²¹ Sanni kaŋ Rabbi ci a boŋ neeya: Sihiyona ize wandiya donda nin ka donda-caray haari te ni se. Urusalima ize wayo na boŋ saku-saku ni banda!

²²Whom 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.

²² May no ni kayna? May no ni donda din? May gaa no ni na jinde sambu, Ni na ni boŋ sambu ka beene guna ka gaaba nd'a Israyla wane Koy Hanna?

²³By 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.

²³ Ni na ni tamey daŋ i ma Rabbi kayna. Ay torkey kunda no ay kaaru nd'a, Hala tondi kuukey boŋ, Hala yongo Liban carawey gaa. Ay ga sedre* beerey da sipres* suubanantey mo beeri ka zeeri. Ay ga furo saaji tuuri zugu booba ra, Hala lunku-lunkey ra.

²⁴I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.

²⁴ Ay fansi ka yawtaray hari haŋ, Ay ce taamu no ay na Misira isey kulu koogandi nd'a.

²⁵Hast 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.

²⁵ Haba? Ni mana maa baaru za gaayaŋ? Ay no ka woodin te k'a waadu mo za waato zamaney ra. Sohõ mo ay n'a toonandi kaŋ ga ti ni ma gallu kaŋ gonda cinari beeri halaci, K'i ciya laabu gusam.

²⁶Therefore 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 house tops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.

²⁶ I gorokoy ciya hina kayna koyyaŋ, I humburu, i haaw, I go sanda saaji subu cine, sanda kobto tayo, Sanda subu tayo kaŋ go garu boŋ cine kaŋ ga kukure za a mana beeri.

²⁷But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.

²⁷ Amma ay wo ga ni gora bay, Da ni fattayaŋo, da ni furoyaŋo, Da ni futay beero ay gaa.

²⁸Because 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.

²⁸ Ay gaa futa kaŋ ni te ay sabbay se binde, Zama ni boŋbeera baaru kaaru hal a furo ay hangey ra, Kal ay m'ay darb'izo daŋ ni niina ra, D'ay alzamo mo ni meyo ra, Ya ni bare ka ye da nin fonda kaŋ ni gana ka kaa din ra.

²⁹And 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.

²⁹ Ya nin Hezeciya, woone no ga ciya ni se alaama: Haran araŋ ga jaraw ŋwa, Yeesi mo kala woodin jarawo, Jiiri hinzanta mo araŋ ma duma ka wi, Araŋ ma reyzin* kaliyaŋ tilam, araŋ m'i nafa ŋwa mo.

³⁰And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.

³⁰ Yahuda duma jara kaŋ cindi kaŋ du ka yana mo, A ga ye ka te kaaji ganda, a ma izey te beene.

³¹For 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.

³¹ Zama Urusalima ra no jare fo kaŋ cindi din ga fatta, Ngey kaŋ yaŋ yana ga fatta Sihiyona tondo ra. Rabbi Kundeykoyo anniya no ga woodin te.

³²Therefore 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.

³² Woodin sabbay se, yaa no Rabbi ci Assiriya bonkoono boŋ: A si kaa gallu woone ra. A si hangaw hay a ra, a si kaa a jine da koray, A si laabu tulluwa te a se mo.

³³By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.

³³ Fonda kaŋ a gana ka kaa d'a din, Nga no a ga gana ka ye koyne. A si kaa mo kwaaro wo do, Yaadin no Rabbi ci.

³⁴For I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

³⁴ Zama ay no ga te gallu woone se kosaray y'a faaba ay boŋ se no, Ay boŋ se d'ay tamo Dawda mo sabbay se.»

³⁵And 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.

³⁵ Kala cino din ra Rabbi malayka fatta ka koy ka Assiriyancey wongu marga ra boro zambar zangu nda wahakku cindi gu wi. Waato kaŋ borey tun susuba, a go, i kulu buukoyaŋ no.

³⁶So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.

³⁶ Assiriya bonkoono Sennakerib mo tun ka ye nga ce banda ka goro Ninawiya kwaara.

³⁷And 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.

³⁷ A ciya mo, waato kaŋ a goono ga sududu nga de-koyo Nisrok se tooro windo ra, kal a izey Adrammelek da Sarezar n'a wi nda takuba. I zuru ka yana mo ka koy Ararat laabo ra. Sennakerib ize Esar-Haddon no te bonkooni a nango ra.
