King James Version
AFR DVK
1
After these things, and the establishment thereof, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself.
Ná hierdie dinge, en die bevestiging daarvan, het Sanherib koning van Assirië gekom, en in Juda ingeval, en teen die versterkte stede kamp opgeslaan, en gedink om hulle vir homself te wen.
2
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
En toe Hiskía sien dat Sanherib gekom het, en dat hy voornemens was om teen Jérusalem te veg,
3
He took counsel with his princes and his mighty men to stop the waters of the fountains which [were] without the city: and they did help him.
Het hy raad geneem met sy vorstes en sy dapper manne om die waters van die fonteine wat buitekant die stad was, toe te stop; en hulle het hom gehelp.
4
So there was gathered much people together, who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
So het daar dan baie volk bymekaargekom, wat al die fonteine, en die spruit wat deur die midde van die land loop, gestop het, en gesê, Waarom moet die konings van Assirië kom, en baie water vind?
5
Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall that was broken, and raised [it] up to the towers, and another wall without, and repaired Millo [in] the city of David, and made darts and shields in abundance.
Ook het hy homself versterk, en die hele muur wat afgebreek was, opgebou, en dit opgetrek tot by die torings, en ‚'n ander muur buitekant, en Millo in die stad van Dawid versterk, en wapens en skilde in menigte gemaak.
6
And he set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the street of the gate of the city, and spake comfortably to them, saying,
En hy het krygsoverstes oor die volk gestel, en hulle bymekaargemaak by hom in die straat by die poort van die stad, en tot hulle gespreek, en gesê,
7
Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that [is] with him: for [there be] more with us than with him:
Wees sterk en dapper, wees nie bevrees of ontmoedig vir die koning van Assirië nie, of vir die hele menigte wat by hom is nie: want daar is meer by ons as by hom:
8
With him [is] an arm of flesh; but with us [is] the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
By hom is ’n arm van vlees; maar by ons is die HERE onse God om ons te help, en om ons gevegte te veg. En die volk het op die woorde van Hiskía koning van Juda gerus.
9
After this did Sennacherib king of Assyria send his servants to Jerusalem, (but he [himself laid siege] against Lachish, and all his power with him,) unto Hezekiah king of Judah, and unto all Judah that [were] at Jerusalem, saying,
Ná dit het Sanherib koning van Assirië sy dienaars na Jérusalem gestuur, (maar hy self het teen Lakis gelê, en al sy mag by hom,) teen Hiskía koning van Juda, en teen die hele Juda wat in Jérusalem was, en gesê,
10
Thus saith Sennacherib king of Assyria, Whereon do ye trust, that ye abide in the siege in Jerusalem?
So sê Sanherib koning van Assirië, Waarin vertrou julle, dat julle in die beleg in Jérusalem bly?
11
Doth not Hezekiah persuade you to give over yourselves to die by famine and by thirst, saying, The LORD our God shall deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Verlei Hiskía julle nie, om julle oor te gee om van honger en dors te sterwe, deur te sê, Die HERE onse God sal ons uit die hand van die koning van Assirië red nie?
12
Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and burn incense upon it?
Het dieselfde Hiskía nie sy hoogtes en sy altare weggeneem, en tot Juda en Jérusalem gesê, Julle moet voor een altaar aanbid, en daarop reukwerk brand nie?
13
Know ye not what I and my fathers have done unto all the people of [other] lands? were the gods of the nations of those lands any ways able to deliver their lands out of mine hand?
Weet julle nie wat ek en my vaders aan al die volke van die lande gedoen het nie? was die gode van die nasies van daardie lande enigsins in staat om hulle lande uit my hand te red?
14
Who [was there] among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed, that could deliver his people out of mine hand, that your God should be able to deliver you out of mine hand?
Wie was daar onder al die gode van daardie nasies wat my vaders heeltemal vernietig het, wat sy volk uit my hand kon red, dat julle God julle uit my hand sou kan red?
15
Now therefore let not Hezekiah deceive you, nor persuade you on this manner, neither yet believe him: for no god of any nation or kingdom was able to deliver his people out of mine hand, and out of the hand of my fathers: how much less shall your God deliver you out of mine hand?
Nou dan, laat Hiskía julle nie bedrieg, of julle so oortuig nie, en glo hom nie: want geen god van enige nasie of koninkryk was in staat om sy volk uit my hand, en uit die hand van my vaders, te red nie: hoeveel te minder sal julle God julle uit my hand red?
16
And his servants spake yet [more] against the LORD God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
En sy dienaars het nog meer teen die HERE God, en teen sy dienaar Hiskía, gespreek.
17
He wrote also letters to rail on the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against him, saying, As the gods of the nations of [other] lands have not delivered their people out of mine hand, so shall not the God of Hezekiah deliver his people out of mine hand.
Hy het ook briewe geskrywe om die HERE, die God van Israel, te tart, en om teen Hom te spreek, en gesê, Soos die gode van die nasies van ander lande hulle volk nie uit my hand gered het nie, so sal die God van Hiskía sy volk nie uit my hand red nie.
18
Then they cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ speech unto the people of Jerusalem that [were] on the wall, to affright them, and to trouble them; that they might take the city.
Toe het hulle met ’n groot stem in die Jode se taal teen die volk van Jérusalem wat op die muur was, geroep, om hulle te verskrik, en om hulle te ontmoedig; dat hulle die stad mag inneem.
19
And they spake against the God of Jerusalem, as against the gods of the people of the earth, [which were] the work of the hands of man.
En hulle het van die God van Jérusalem gespreek soos van die gode van die volke van die aarde, wat die werk van mensehande is.
20
And for this [cause] Hezekiah the king, and the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz, prayed and cried to heaven.
En vir hierdie saak het Hiskía die koning, en die profeet Jesaja die seun van Amos, gebid en tot die hemel geroep.
21
And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
En die HERE het ’n engel gestuur, wat al die dapper manne van mag, en die leiers en kapteins in die kamp van die koning van Assirië, uitgeroei het. So het hy dan met skaamte van aangesig na sy eie land teruggekeer. En toe hy in die huis van sy god ingegaan het, het dié wat uit sy eie liggaam voortgekom het, hom daar met die swaard neergeslaan.
22
Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all [other], and guided them on every side.
So het die HERE dan Hiskía en die inwoners van Jérusalem uit die hand van Sanherib die koning van Assirië, en uit die hand van almal, gered, en hulle aan alle kante gelei.
23
And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
En baie het geskenke aan die HERE in Jérusalem gebring, en geskenke aan Hiskía koning van Juda: sodat hy daarna verhef is in die aangesig van al die nasies.
24
In those days Hezekiah was sick to the death, and prayed unto the LORD: and he spake unto him, and he gave him a sign.
In daardie dae was Hiskía siek tot die dood toe, en hy het tot die HERE gebid: en Hy het met hom gespreek, en hom ’n teken gegee.
25
But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit [done] unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem.
Maar Hiskía het nie weer vergoed volgens die weldaad wat aan hom bewys is nie; want sy hart is verhef: daarom was daar toorn op hom, en op Juda en Jérusalem.
26
Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, [both] he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
Nogtans het Hiskía homself verneder vir die verhewenheid van sy hart, beide hy en die inwoners van Jérusalem, sodat die toorn van die HERE nie in die dae van Hiskía op hulle gekom het nie.
27
And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honour: and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of pleasant jewels;
En Hiskía het baie rykdom en eer gehad: en hy het vir hom skatte gemaak vir silwer, en vir goud, en vir edelgesteentes, en vir speserye, en vir skilde, en vir alle soorte aangename vate;
28
Storehouses also for the increase of corn, and wine, and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and cotes for flocks.
Voorraadkamers ook vir die toename van koring, en wyn, en olie; en stalle vir alle soorte beeste, en stalle vir kuddes.
29
Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance: for God had given him substance very much.
Bowendien het hy vir hom stede gemaak, en besittings van kuddes en troppe in menigte: want God het hom baie goed gegee.
30
This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon, and brought it straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works.
Hierdie selfde Hiskía het ook die boonste waterbron van Gihon gestop, en dit reguit afgelei na die westekant van die stad van Dawid. En Hiskía het in al sy werke voorspoedig gewees.
31
Howbeit in [the business of] the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to inquire of the wonder that was [done] in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all [that was] in his heart.
Hoebeit in die saak van die gesante van die vorstes van Babel, wat na hom gestuur is om die wonderwerk te ondersoek wat in die land gebeur het, het God hom verlaat, om hom te beproef, dat Hy alles kon weet wat in sy hart was.
32
Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, behold, they [are] written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, [and] in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Nou die res van die dade van Hiskía, en sy goedheid, kyk, hulle is geskrywe in die visioen van Jesaja die profeet, die seun van Amos, en in die boek van die konings van Juda en Israel.
33
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the chiefest of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
En Hiskía het by sy vaders ontslaap, en hulle het hom in die voorste deel van die grafte van die seuns van Dawid begrawe: en die hele Juda en die inwoners van Jérusalem het hom eer bewys by sy dood. En Manasse sy seun het in sy plek as koning geregeer.
