1At that time, Merodach Baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah; for he heard that he had been sick, and had recovered.
1 Jirbey din ra Merodak-Baladan, Baladan ize, Babila bonkoono na diyayaŋ donton i ma kande tirayaŋ da nooyaŋ Hezeciya se. Zama a maa baaru kaŋ Hezeciya zaŋay, hal a te baani.
1At that time Merodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah; for he heard that he had been sick, and was recovered.
2Hezekiah was pleased with them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, and all 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.
2 Hezeciya mo farhã d'ey. A naŋ i di nga jinay darzantey fuwo kaŋ ra gonda nzarfu, da wura, da yaazi jinay, da ji caadante, da nga wongu jinay fuwo kulu, da hay kulu kaŋ go jisiri nango ra. Hay kulu si no kaŋ go a windo ra wala a mayra ra kaŋ Hezeciya mana cabe i se.
2And Hezekiah was glad of them, and showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and all 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 showed them not.
3Then Isaiah the prophet came to king Hezekiah, and asked him, “What did these men say? Where did they come from to you?” Hezekiah said, “They have come from a country far from me, even from Babylon.”
3 Gaa no annabi* Isaya kaa Bonkoono Hezeciya do ka ne a se: «Ifo no borey din ne? Man mo no i fun ka kaa ni do?» Hezeciya mo ne: «I fun laabu fo kaŋ ga mooru ka kaa ay do, kaŋ ga ti Babila.»
3Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon.
4Then he asked, “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.”
4 Isaya ye ka ne a se: «Ifo no i di ni windo ra?» Hezeciya mo tu ka ne: «Hay kulu kaŋ go ay windo ra, i di a. Hay kulu si no ay jisiri nangey ra kaŋ ay mana cabe i se.»
4Then said he, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in my house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them.
5Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of Yahweh of Armies:
5 Waato din gaa Isaya ne Hezeciya se: «To, ma maa Rabbi Kundeykoyo sanno:
5Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of Jehovah of hosts:
6‘Behold, the days are coming when all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have stored up until this day, will be carried to Babylon. Nothing will be left,’ says Yahweh.
6 Guna, jirbiyaŋ goono ga kaa kaŋ hay kulu kaŋ go ni windo ra, da hay kulu kaŋ ni kaayey jisi hala ka kaa hunkuna, i g'i sambu ka kond'ey Babila. Hay kulu si cindi. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
6Behold, the days are coming, when all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith Jehovah.
7‘They will take away your sons who will issue from you, whom you shall father, and they will be eunuchs in the king of Babylon’s palace.’”
7 Ni izey mo kaŋ yaŋ ga fun ni gunda ra, kaŋ yaŋ ni ga hay, i ga konda i ra afooyaŋ i ma ciya mantawyaŋ Babila bonkoono faada ra.»
7And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
8Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “Yahweh’s word which you have spoken is good.” He said moreover, “For there will be peace and truth in my days.”
8 Waato din gaa Hezeciya ne Isaya se: «Rabbi sanno kaŋ ni ci ga boori.» A ye ka ne koyne: «Zama ay wo, ay jirbey ra laakal kanay da cimi ga bara.»
8Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.
