1Ngomnyaka wetshumi lane wenkosi uHezekhiya, uSaneheribi inkosi yeAsiriya wahlasela yonke imizi ebiyelweyo yakoJuda, wayithumba.
2Inkosi yase-Asiriya yathuma abaphathi baseLakishi eJerusalema enkosini uHezekiya nempi enkulu. Wema ngasemseleni wedamu elingenhla, emendweni wensimu yomhlanzi.
3U-Eliyakimi indodana kaHilikiya owayengamele indlu waphuma waya kuye, noShebina unobhala noJowaki indodana ka-Asafa, umbusi.
4Izikhulu zathi kubo: “Ake nisho kuHezekiya nithi: ‘Isho kanje inkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya, ithi: Yithemba lini leli olethembayo na?
5Ngithi wena, (kodwa lawa ngamazwi ayize) nginesu namandla okulwa; Manje nithembele kubani ukuba nihlubuke Kimi na?
6Bheka, wethemba udondolo lwalo mhlanga owaphukileyo eGibithe; okuthi uma umuntu encika kulo, lungene esandleni sakhe, lusihlabe; unjalo uFaro, inkosi yaseGibithe, nabo bonke abamethembayo.
7Kepha uma nithi kimi: ‘Simethemba uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu, akusiye ozindawo zakhe eziphakemeyo nama-altare akhe uHezekiya akudilizile, wathi kuJuda neJerusalema: “Niyakukhuleka phambi kwaleli altare na?
8Khathesi-ke yenza isibambiso enkosini yami, inkosi yeAsiriya, njalo ngizakunika amabhiza azinkulungwane ezimbili, uba ungabeka abagadi bamabhiza eceleni kwakho.
9Pho, ungabubuyisela kanjani emuva ubuso besinye sezikhulu zezinceku ezincane zenkosi yami, uthembele eGibithe ukuze uthole izinqola nabamahhashi?
10Manje-ke ngenyukele yini ngokumelene naleli zwe ngaphandle kukaJehova ukulibhubhisa? uJehova wathi kimi: “Khuphukela leli zwe, ulichithe.
11Base bethi o-Eliyakimi noShebina noJowaki kuRabi-sake: “Khuluma ezincekwini zakho e-Aramu; ngoba siyakuzwa, kasikhulumi lathi ngolimi lwesiJuda, ezindlebeni zabantu abasodongeni.
12Kodwa induna yathi: Inkosi yami ingithumile yini enkosini yakho lakuwe ukukhuluma lamazwi? Akangithumanga yini kubantu abahlezi phezu komduli ukuba badle ubulongwe bawo, baphuze umchamo wabo kanye nani?
13Khona-ke umlawuli wema, wamemeza ngezwi elikhulu ngolimi lwesiJuda, wathi: “Yizwani amazwi enkosi enkulu, inkosi yase-Asiriya.
14Itsho njalo inkosi: Kangalikhohlisi uHezekhiya, ngoba kayikuba namandla okulisindisa.
15Ningamvumeli uHezekiya anenze nithembele kuJehova ngokuthi: ‘UJehova uyakusophula nokusikhulula; lomuzi awuyikunikelwa esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya.
16Ningamlaleli uHezekiya, ngokuba isho kanje inkosi yase-Asiriya, ithi: Yenzani isivumelwano nami ngesipho, niphume nize kimi; nidle, kube yilowo nalowo emvinini wakhe, kube yilowo nalowo emkhiwaneni wakhe, niphuze, kube yilowo nalowo amanzi omthombo wakhe;
17ngize ngifike nginiyise ezweni elinjengezwe lakini, izwe likakolweni nelewayini, izwe lesinkwa nezivini.
18Qaphelani ukuba uHezekiya anganiyengi ngokuthi: ‘UJehova uyakusisindisa. Onkulunkulu bezizwe walisindisa yini izwe lakhe esandleni senkosi yase-Asiriya na?
19Baphi onkulunkulu baseHamati nase-Arfadi na? baphi onkulunkulu baseSefarivayimi na? balikhulule iSamariya esandleni sami na?
20Ngubani phakathi kwabo bonke onkulunkulu balawa mazwe abasindise izwe labo esandleni sami, ukuba uJehova asindise iJerusalema esandleni sami na?
21Kepha bathula, abamphendulanga ngazwi, ngokuba umyalo wenkosi wawuthi: Ningamphenduli.
22Khona-ke u-Eliyakimi indodana kaHilikiya, owayephethe indlu, noShebina unobhala noJowaki indodana ka-Asafa, umbusi, beza kuHezekiya nezingubo eziklebhukile, bamtshela amazwi kaRabishake.
