1 Saa nna no mu no, Hesekia yaree owuyare, na Amos babarima Odiyifo Yesaia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔkae se, “Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Toto wʼakwan yiye, efisɛ worebewu; na wo ho renyɛ wo den bio.”
2 Bere a Hesekia tee asɛm yi, otwaa nʼani hwɛɛ ɔfasu, bɔɔ Awurade mpae se, 3 “Kae, Awurade, sɛnea manantew wʼanim nokware mu na mede me koma ayɛ nea ɛfata wɔ wʼanim.” Na Hesekia suu bebree.
4 Na ansa na Yesaia befi adiwo no mfimfini no, Awurade de asɛm yi besii ne so se, 5 “San kɔ Hesekia a ɔyɛ me nkurɔfo kannifo no nkyɛn, na kɔka kyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade a ɔyɛ wʼagya Dawid Nyankopɔn se: Mate wo mpaebɔ no, ahu wo nusu no. Mɛsa wo yare, na nnansa akyi no, wobɛsɔre afi mpa so, na woakɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu. 6 Mede mfe dunum bɛka wo mfe ho, na megye wo ne saa kuropɔn yi afi Asiriahene nsam. Me somfo Dawid nti, mɛyɛ eyi de agye mʼanuonyam.’ ”
7 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia asomfo no se, “Momfa borɔdɔma nyɛ ngo, na momfa nsrasra pɔmpɔ no so.” Wɔyɛɛ saa, na Hesekia nyaa ahoɔden.
8 Ansa na ɔrebenya ayaresa no, Hesekia bisaa Yesaia se, “Nsɛnkyerɛnne bɛn na Awurade bɛyɛ, de akyerɛ sɛ ɔbɛsa me yare, na matumi akɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu nnansa so?”
9 Yesaia buae se, “Eyi ne nsɛnkyerɛnne a Awurade bɛyɛ akyerɛ wo sɛ obedi ne bɔhyɛ so. Wopɛ sɛ sunsuma no kɔ nʼanim anammɔntu du anaa ɛsan nʼakyi anammɔntu du?”
10 Hesekia buae se, “Honhom no kɔ nʼanim bere biara. Na mmom, ma ɛnkɔ nʼakyi.”
11 Enti Yesaia srɛɛ Awurade sɛ ɔnyɛ eyi, na ɔmaa sunsuma no tetew san nʼakyi anammɔntu du wɔ Ahas atrapoe no so.
Babilonia Ananmusifo
12 Saa bere yi mu na Babiloniahene Baladan babarima Merodak-Baladan*Wɔde Merodak too Marduk a ɛyɛ Babilonia nyame no. soma ma wɔkɔmaa Hesekia tirinkwa ne akyɛde, efisɛ na wate sɛ ɔyare dennen bi bɔɔ Hesekia. 13 Hesekia gyee Babilonia ananmusifo yi, kyerɛɛ wɔn biribiara a ɔwɔ wɔ nʼadekoradan mu a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, nnuhuam ne ngo a ɛyɛ huam.

14 Afei Odiyifo Yesaia kɔɔ ɔhene Hesekia nkyɛn, kobisaa no se, “Asɛm bɛn na saa mmarima no kae na he na wofi bae?”
Hesekia buae se, “Wofi akyirikyiri asase bi so. Wofi Babilonia, na wɔbaa me nkyɛn.”
15 Odiyifo no bisae se, “Dɛn na wohuu wɔ wʼahemfi hɔ?”
Hesekia buae se, “Wohuu biribiara a ɛwɔ mʼahemfi ha. Biribiara nni mʼademude mu a mamfa ankyerɛ wɔn.”
16 Na Yesaia ka kyerɛɛ Hesekia se, “Tie saa asɛm a efi Awurade nkyɛn yi: 17 Nokware, bere bi bɛba a, wɔbɛsoa biribiara a ɛwɔ wʼahemfi ne agyapade a wʼagyanom akora de abedu nnɛ no akɔ Babilonia.

19 Na Hesekia ka kyerɛɛ Yesaia se, “Saa asɛm yi a efi Awurade nkyɛn a woaka akyerɛ me yi yɛ asɛm papa.” Nanso na ɔhene no redwene sɛ, ne bere so de, obenya asomdwoe ne bammɔ.
