1في تلك الايام مرض حزقيا للموت. فجاء اليه اشعياء بن آموص النبي وقال له. هكذا قال الرب اوص بيتك لانك تموت ولا تعيش.
1In those days was Hezekiah sick to death. Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live.’”
2فوجّه وجهه الى الحائط وصلى الى الرب قائلا
2Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Yahweh, saying,
3آه يا رب اذكر كيف سرت امامك بالامانة وبقلب سليم وفعلت الحسن في عينيك. وبكى حزقيا بكاء عظيما.
3“Remember now, Yahweh, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight.” Hezekiah wept bitterly.
4ولم يخرج اشعياء الى المدينة الوسطى حتى كان كلام الرب اليه قائلا.
4It happened, before Isaiah had gone out into the middle part of the city, that the word of Yahweh came to him, saying,
5ارجع وقل لحزقيا رئيس شعبي هكذا قال الرب اله داود ابيك. قد سمعت صلاتك. قد رأيت دموعك. هانذا اشفيك. في اليوم الثالث تصعد الى بيت الرب.
5“Turn back, and tell Hezekiah the prince of my people, ‘Thus says Yahweh, the God of David your father, “I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day, you shall go up to the house of Yahweh.
6وازيد على ايامك خمس عشرة سنة وانقذك من يد ملك اشور مع هذه المدينة وأحامي عن هذه المدينة من اجل نفسي ومن اجل داود عبدي.
6I will add to your days fifteen years. I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.”’”
7فقال اشعياء خذوا قرص تين. فأخذوها ووضعوها على الدبّل فبرئ.
7Isaiah said, “Take a cake of figs.” They took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
8وقال حزقيا لاشعياء ما العلامة ان الرب يشفيني فاصعد في اليوم الثالث الى بيت الرب.
8Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “What shall be the sign that Yahweh will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of Yahweh the third day?”
9فقال اشعياء هذه لك علامة من قبل الرب على ان الرب يفعل الامر الذي تكلم به. هل يسير الظل عشر درجات او يرجع عشر درجات.
9Isaiah said, “This shall be the sign to you from Yahweh, that Yahweh will do the thing that he has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?”
10فقال حزقيا انه يسير على الظل ان يمتد عشر درجات. لا بل يرجع الظل الى الوراء عشر درجات.
10Hezekiah answered, “It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward ten steps. Nay, but let the shadow return backward ten steps.”
11فدعا اشعياء النبي الرب فارجع الظل بالدرجات التي نزل بها بدرجات آحاز عشر درجات الى الوراء
11Isaiah the prophet cried to Yahweh; and he brought the shadow ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.
12في ذلك الزمان ارسل برودخ بلادان بن بلادان ملك بابل رسائل وهدية الى حزقيا لانه سمع ان حزقيا قد مرض.
12At that time Berodach Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah; for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
13فسمع لهم حزقيا واراهم كل بيت ذخائره والفضة والذهب والاطياب والزيت الطيب وكل بيت اسلحته وكل ما وجد في خزائنه. لم يكن شيء لم يرهم اياه حزقيا في بيته وفي كل سلطنته.
13Hezekiah listened to them, and showed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armor, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah didn’t show them.
14فجاء اشعياء النبي الى الملك حزقيا وقال له. ماذا قال هؤلاء الرجال ومن اين جاءوا اليك. فقال حزقيا جاءوا من ارض بعيدة من بابل.
14Then Isaiah the prophet came to king Hezekiah, and said to him, “What did these men say? From where did they come to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come from a far country, even from Babylon.”
15فقال ماذا رأوا في بيتك. فقال حزقيا رأوا كل ما في بيتي. ليس في خزائني شيء لم أرهم اياه.
15He said, “What have they seen in your house?” Hezekiah answered, “They have seen all that is in my house. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.”
16فقال اشعياء لحزقيا اسمع قول الرب.
16Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of Yahweh.
17هوذا تأتي ايام يحمل فيها كل ما في بيتك وما ذخره آباؤك الى هذا اليوم الى بابل. لا يترك شيء يقول الرب.
17‘Behold, the days come, that all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store to this day, shall be carried to Babylon. Nothing shall be left,’ says Yahweh.
18ويؤخذ من بنيك الذين يخرجون منك الذين تلدهم فيكونون خصيانا في قصر ملك بابل.
18‘Of your sons who shall issue from you, whom you shall father, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.’”
19فقال حزقيا لاشعياء جيد هو قول الرب الذي تكلمت به. ثم قال فكيف لا ان يكن سلام وامان في ايامي.
19Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of Yahweh which you have spoken is good.” He said moreover, “Isn’t it so, if peace and truth shall be in my days?”
20وبقية أمور حزقيا وكل جبروته وكيف عمل البركة والقناة وادخل الماء الى المدينة اما هي مكتوبة في سفر اخبار الايام لملوك يهوذا.
20Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
21ثم اضطجع حزقيا مع آبائه وملك منسّى ابنه عوضا عنه
21Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his place.
