Okuxupifwa kwaJerusalem
1 Nohamba Hiskia eshi ye shi uda, oya pombaula oikutu yayo ndele tai djala oikutu yeefya, ndele tai i mongulu yOmwene. 2 Opo nee ye a tuma komuxunganeki Jesaja yaAmos Eliakim, elenga leumbo lohamba naSebna, omushangi, novakulunhu vomovapristeli, va djala oikutu yeefya. 3 Ndele vo otava ti kuye: “Hiskia ta ti ngaha: Efiku eli, olo efiku loudjuu nolehandu nolesheko. Osheshi ounona ve uya poshivelo shoshidalelo, ndelenee kape neenghono dokudala. 4 Kashiimba Omwene Kalunga koye ta udu eendjovo adishe daRabsake, ou a tumwa komwene waye, ohamba yaAsiria, opo a sheke Kalunga, ndele Ye ote mu handukile omolweendjovo odo Omwene Kalunga koye a uda. Yelula hano eindilo molwoshixupe osho shi li po natango.” 5 Ndele ovapiya vohamba Hiskia eshi ve uya kuJesaja, 6 Jesaja ta ti kuvo: “Omwene weni, mu lombweleni: ‘Omwene osho ta ti: Ino tila eendjovo odo we di uda, da shekifwa nge kovapiya vohamba yaAsiria. 7 Tala, Ame ohandi ke mu pa omhepo, nokutya ta udu eenghundana, ndele ta shuna koshilongo shaye, ndele Ame ohandi ke mu dipaa neongamukonda moshilongo shaye.’ ”
8 Opo nee Rabsake a shuna, ndele ta hange ohamba yaAsiria tai lwifa Libna, osheshi okwa li, a uda nokutya, yo ya dja muLakis. 9 Ndele ye eshi a uda Tirhaka, ohamba yaEtiopia, taku tiwa: “Ye okwa fikama e ku lwife,” okwa tumununa ovatumwa kuHiskia nondaka tai ti: 10 “Ka lombweleni Hiskia, ohamba yaJuda, mu tye: ‘Ino shiivika oulai kuKalunga koye, ou we mu lineekela, eshi to ti, Jerusalem itashi yandjwa momake ohamba yaAsiria. 11 Tala, ove mwene wa uda, eshi eehamba daAsiria da ningila oilongo aishe ndele de i teya po. Oove ngeno u xupifwe? 12 Oikalunga yoiwana oyo ya hanaunwa po kutate, oye i xupifa ngeno, Gosan naHaran naResef novana vaEden sha li muTelassar? 13 Ohamba yaHamat oi li peni? Nohamba yaArpad nohamba yoshilando shaSefarvaim, noyaHena noyaIva, oi li peni?’ ”
14 Hiskia eshi a tambula onhumwafo oyo momake ovatumwa nokwe i lesha, ye okwa ya mongulu yOmwene. Ndele Hiskia okwe i yala koshipala shOmwene. 15 Ndele Hiskia okwa indila koshipala shOmwene ndele ta ti: “Omwene, Kalunga kaIsrael, Ove ho kala omutumba kovakerubi, Oove auke Kalunga koilongo aishe yokombada yedu. Ove wa shita eulu nedu! 16 Akutu Omwene, ameka okutwi kwoye, ove u ude ko. Pashula omesho oye, Omwene, u tale. Ndele uda eendjovo daSanheerib, ou a tuma okusheka Kalunga omunamwenyo! 17 Oshili, Omwene eehamba daAsiria oda hanauna po oiwana noilongo yayo, 18 noikalunga yayo ya xwikwa momundilo, osheshi kai li oikalunga ndelenee oilonga yomake ovanhu, oshiti nemanya. Onghee hano odo da dula oku i hanauna po. 19 Tu xupifa, Omwene Kalunga ketu, momake ayo, opo oilongo aishe yokombada yedu i shiive nokutya, Oove Omwene auke Kalunga kashili.”
20 Opo nee Jesaja yaAmos a tuma kuHiskia, ta ti: “Omwene Kalunga kaIsrael ta ti ngaha: ‘Osho we shi indila nge omolwaSanheerib, ohamba yaAsiria, Ame nde shi uda.’ 21 Ondjovo ei, Omwene e i tongela Hiskia:
