¹V tých dňoch onemocnel Ezechiáš na smrť. A prišiel k nemu Izaiáš, syn Ámosov, prorok, a riekol mu: Takto hovorí Hospodin: Zriaď svoj dom, lebo zomrieš a nebudeš žiť.

¹In those days Hezekiah was sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.

²A obrátil svoju tvár ku stene a modlil sa Hospodinovi a povedal:

²And he turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Jehovah saying,

³Prosím, ó, Hospodine, rozpomeň sa na to, že som chodil pred tebou v pravde a celým srdcom úprimným a robil som to, čo je dobré v tvojich očiach.- A Ezechiáš plakal veľmi.

³Ah! Jehovah, remember, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done what is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept much.

⁴A stalo sa, keď ešte nebol vyšiel Izaiáš ani do prostredného dvora, že stalo sa k nemu slovo Hospodinovo povediac:

⁴And it came to pass before Isaiah had gone out into the middle city that the word of Jehovah came to him saying,

⁵Vráť sa a povedz Ezechiášovi, vodcovi môjho ľudu: Takto hovorí Hospodin, Bôh Dávida, tvojho otca: Počul som tvoju modlitbu, videl som tvoje slzy. Hľa, uzdravím ťa; tretieho dňa vyjdeš hore do domu Hospodinovho.

⁵Return, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears; behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up to the house of Jehovah;

⁶A pridám ku tvojim dňom pätnásť rokov a z ruky assýrskeho kráľa ťa vytrhnem i toto mesto a budem chrániť toto mesto pre seba a pre Dávida, svojho služobníka.

⁶and I will add to thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

⁷A Izaiáš riekol: Vezmite hrudu suchých fíkov. A vzali a priložili na vred, a bol uzdravený a žil.

⁷And Isaiah said, Take a cake of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

⁸A Ezechiáš povedal Izaiášovi: Čo bude znamením toho, že ma uzdraví Hospodin, a že tretieho dňa vyjdem hore do domu Hospodinovho?

⁸And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, What [shall be] the sign that Jehovah will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of Jehovah the third day?

⁹Na to riekol Izaiáš: Toto ti bude znamením od Hospodina, že Hospodin učiní vec, ktorú hovoril: Či chceš, aby tieň postúpil o desať stupňov a či aby sa vrátil o desať stupňov a či by sa vrátil o desať stupňov?

⁹And Isaiah said, This [shall be] the sign to thee from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

¹⁰A Ezechiáš odpovedal: Ľahko je tieňu nakloniť sa a tak postúpiť o desať stupňov. Nie tak, ale nech sa tieň vráti o desať stupňov nazpät.

¹⁰And Hezekiah said, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: no, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

¹¹Vtedy volal prorok Izaiáš k Hospodinovi, a navrátil tieň po stupňoch, ktorý bol sišiel na slnečných hodinách Achazových, nazpät o desať stupňov.-

¹¹And Isaiah the prophet cried to Jehovah, and he brought the shadow back on the degrees by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward.

¹²V tom čase poslal Berodach Baladán, syn Baladánov, babylonský kráľ, Ezechiášovi list a dar, pretože počul, že bol Ezechiáš nemocný.

¹²At that time Berodach-Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.

¹³A Ezechiáš ich vypočul a ukázal im všetky schrany svojich klenotov, striebro i zlato, voňavé veci aj výborný olej i svoju zbrojáreň i všetko, čo sa nachádzalo v jeho pokladoch; nebolo ničoho, čo by im nebol Ezechiáš ukázal vo svojom dome i v celom svojom panstve.

¹³And Hezekiah hearkened to them, and shewed them all his treasure-house, the silver and the gold, and the spices and the fine oil, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found among his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah did not shew them.

¹⁴Potom prišiel prorok Izaiáš ku kráľovi Ezechiášovi a riekol mu: Čo povedali tí mužovia a odkiaľ prišli k tebe? A Ezechiáš povedal: Prišli z ďalekej zeme, z Babylona.

¹⁴Then came the prophet Isaiah to king Hezekiah and said to him, What said these men? and from whence came they to thee? And Hezekiah said, They came from a far country, from Babylon.

¹⁵A riekol: Čo videli v tvojom dome? A Ezechiáš povedal: Videli všetko, čo je v mojom dome. Nie je ničoho v mojich pokladoch, čoho by som im nebol ukázal.

¹⁵And he said, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah said, All that is in my house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewn them.

¹⁶Vtedy riekol Izaiáš Ezechiášovi: Počuj slovo Hospodinovo!

¹⁶And Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of Jehovah:

¹⁷Hľa, prijdú dni, že všetko, čo je v tvojom dome, a čo nashromaždili tvoji otcovia až do tohoto dňa, bude odnesené do Babylona; nič nezostane, hovorí Hospodin.

¹⁷Behold, days come that all that is in thy house, and what thy fathers have laid up until this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, saith Jehovah.

¹⁸Aj z tvojich synov, ktorí pojdú z teba, ktorých splodíš, vezmú niektorých, a budú komorníkmi v paláci babylonského kráľa.

¹⁸And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be chamberlains in the palace of the king of Babylon.

¹⁹Na to povedal Ezechiáš Izaiášovi: Dobré je slovo Hospodinovo, ktoré si hovoril. A ešte povedal: Lebo či nie je dobré, akže pokoj a pravda bude za mojich dní?

¹⁹And Hezekiah said to Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not so? if only there shall be peace and truth in my days!

²⁰A ostatné deje Ezechiášove a všetka jeho udatnosť a jako spravil rybník a vodovod a voviedol vodu do mesta, či nie je to napísané v knihe letopisov kráľov Júdových?

²⁰And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool and the aqueduct, and brought the water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²¹A tak ľahol Ezechiáš a ležal so svojimi otcami, a kraľoval Manasses, jeho syn, miesto neho.

²¹And Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
