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:
‘Okakadona kaSion take ku dini, take ku sheke.

22 Olyelye ou, ove we mu dina nowe mu tuka?

25 ‘Ino shi uda?

ndele handi ku shunifa nondjila oyo we uya nayo.
29 ‘Ndele oshinima eshi tashi ka kala edidiliko kwoove: Neudo eli, lyeni, eshi tashi mene shoovene, ndele momudo omutivali osho tashi mene natango. Ndelenee momudo omutitatu, kuneni, nye mu teye, twikeni oikokola yomiviinyu nye mu lye eeviinyu dayo. 30 Opo nee ovaxupifwa vomeumbo laJuda, ava va xupa po, tava ka twamifa omidi davo medu, ndele tava ka imika oiimati pombada, 31 osheshi muJerusalem tamu ka dja oshixupe, novaxupifwa komhunda yaSion.”
Ouladi wOmwene womatanga ovakwaita tau ke shi ninga.
32 “Onghee hano Omwene ta ti mokupopya ohamba yaAsiria: Yo itai uya mo moshilando eshi, ndele itai umbile mo oshikuti, yo itai shi totele nande noikelelifo, ndele itai tungu ko omatelendja. 33 Nondjila tuu oyo e uya nayo, yo i nokushuna. Ndelenee moshilando tuu eshi yo itai ke uya mo nande. 34 Ndele Ame ohandi ka amena oshilando eshi, ndi shi xupife omolwange mwene nomolwomupiya wange David.’ ”

Omukwaniilwa ta pula oondunge kuJesaja
(Jes. 37:1-7)1 Hiskia sho u uvu ehokololo lyawo, okwa tuula oonguwo dhe moluhodhi e ta zala ehahi e ta yi kotempeli yOmuwa. 2 Okwa tumu elenga lyomuuwa Eliakim, amushangampangu Shebna naayambi aakuluntu komuhunganeki Jesaja yaAmos. Oya li ya zala omahahi. 3 Okwe ya tumu kuJesaja nelaka tali ti: “Esiku lyonena olyomalwa, olyegeelo nolyeshundulo. Otwa fa omukiintu ta thetwa, ihe ita vulu okupulumutha. 4 Omupangeli gwaAssur okwa tumu elenga lye ekuluntu okusheka Kalunga omunamwenyo. Omuwa, Kalunga koye, na uve omasheko ngaka nokugeela ngoka e ga popi. Galikana Kalunga omolwaamboka yomaantu yetu ya hupa ko.”
5 Jesaja sho u uvu elaka lyomukwaniilwa Hiskia, 6 okwa yamukula ta ti: “Omuwa ota ti: ‘Ino tila oohapu ndhoka dhuumatyona womupangeli gwaAssur we dhi uvu tadhi sheke ndje! 7 Otandi tumine omupangeli onkundana ndjoka tayi mu galukithile koshilongo she mwene, nankoka tandi ke mu dhipagithila.’ ”
Aayassur taa homona ishewe
(Jes. 37:8-20)8 Elenga lyokuAssur olya koneke kutya omupangeli a zi mo muLakish nokwa li ta kondjitha oshilando shopopepi Libna; onkee a yi kuye. 9 Onkundana ya adha Aayassur, oya ti kutya etangakwiita lyAayegipiti mewiliko lyomukwaniilwa Tirhaka gwaSudan oli li mondjila, li ya homone. Omupangeli sho e shi uvu, okwa tumu aatumwa komukwaniilwa Hiskia, 10 ye mu lombwele ngeyi: “Kalunga ngoka we mu inekela, okwe ku lombwele kutya ito ka ya miikaha yandje, ihe shika inashi ku tula muugoya. 11 Owa kundana shoka omupangeli gwaAssur ta ningile iilongo ayihe mbyoka a tokola e yi hanagule po. Oto dhiladhila kutya oto ka hunuka? 12 Ootatekulu oya hanagula po iilando Gosan, Haran naRezef noya dhipaga aantu yaBeteden mboka ya kala muTelassar, ko kakwa li nando okalunga kamwe ta vulu oku ya hupitha. 13 Aakwaniilwa yomiilando Hamat, Arpad, Sefarvaim, Hena naIvva oye li peni?”
14 Omukwaniilwa Hiskia okwa taamba ontumwafo miikaha yaatumwa e te yi lesha. Nena okwa yi kotempeli e ta aneke ontumwafo koshipala shOmuwa 15 e ta galikana ta ti: “Omuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael, ngoka wa kuutumba koshipangelapundi shoye kombanda yaakerubi, ongoye awike Kalunga ngoka to lele iilongo ayihe yomuuyuni. Ongoye wa shiti egulu nevi wo. 16 Ngashingeyi, Omuwa, tala, nkene tatu ningwa.

Elaka lyaJesaja komukwaniilwa
(Jes. 37:21-38)20 Nena Jesaja okwa tumu komukwaniilwa Hiskia elaka tali mu tseyithile eyamukulo kegalikano lye. 21 Omuwa okwa ti: “Sennakerib, oshilando Jerusalem otashi ku yolo e tashi ku dhini. 22 Olye ngoka andola we mu sheke noku mu popya nayi? Ongoye owa dhini ndje, ngame Kalunga kaIsrael omuyapuki. 23 Owa tumu aatumwa yoye, u inenepekele ndje kutya ngoye nomatembakwiita goye agehe wa sindi oondundu oondeendeka dhaLibanon.

25 “Ino shi uva nani kutya shika ongame nde shi dhiladhila nalenale? Ngashingeyi onde shi gwanitha. Onde ku pe oonkondo, u kumune po iilandohote, yi ninge omakulukuma. 26 Aantu mboka ya kala mo oya tyololoka; oya li ya haluka noya kunkwa. Oya li ya fa omwiidhi melundu nenge iigwanga tayi mene kombanda yondunda, uuna ombepo ompyu yokuuzilo tayi yi pepele.
27 “Ihe ngame onde ku tseya aguhe, shoka to ningi naankoka to yi. Onda tseya, nkene wa pindjala okukondjitha ndje. 28 Onda taamba etseyitho lyepindjalo lyoye nomwiityo gwoye, nongashingeyi otandi tula ondjolo momayulu goye noshitomo mokana koye e tandi ku shunitha nondjila ndjoka we ya nayo.”
29 Nena Jesaja okwa ti komukwaniilwa Hiskia: “Endhindhiliko lyashika tashi ka ningwa, olyo ndika. Nuumvo nomumvo tagu ya omu na okulya oshinkumbwe ashike, ihe omumvo tagu ka landula ko otamu ka vula okukuna nokuteya iilya yeni, notamu ka tsika omiviinu e tamu li omandjembele. 30 Oomboka taa hupile muJuda, otaa ka tsapuka ya fa iimeno tayi fala omidhi dhayo muule mevi e tayi imi iiyimati.” 31 MuJerusalem otamu ka kala aantu nokondundu Sion oomboka ya hupu ko, oshoka Omuwa oye ta ningitha ayihe mbika.
32 Omuwa okwa popi omupangeli gwaAssur ta ti: “Ite ya mo, a hite meni lyoshilando shika nenge a umbile mo nando oshikuti shimwe molugodhi. Kape na omukwiita e na ehuuyanza ta vulu okuya popepi noshilando, noshilando itashi tungilwa omutuni gwekondekela. 33 Ota ka shuna nondjila ndjoka e ya nayo ye ite ya meni lyoshilando shika. Ongame, Omuwa, nde dhi tya. 34 Otandi popile oshilando shika e tandi shi gamene omolwesimano lyandje mwene nomolweuvaneko nde li uvanekele omuntu gwandje David.”
35 Uusiku mbwiyaka omuyengeli gwOmuwa okwa yi kontanda yAayassur e ta dhipagele ko aakwiita 185 000. Sho kwa shi, oya adhika ya lala ya sa ayehe. 36 Nena omupangeli gwaAssur Sennakerib okwa zi po e ta shuna kuNinive. 37 Esiku limwe, sho a li ta saagele motempeli yoshikalunga she Nisrok, yaali yomoyanamati, Adrammelek naSharezer, oye mu dhipaga nomagongamwele e taa fadhuka po taa yi koshilongo Ararat. Gumwe gwomoyanamati Asarhaddon okwe mu landula muukwaniilwa.
