39 Ngaleso sikhatsi, Merodaki-baladani inkhosi yaseBhabhulona, loyindvodzana yaBaladani, watfumela tincwadzi kanye nesipho kuHezekiya+ ngobe bekevile kutsi Hezekiya bekagula futsi besekeluleme.+
2 Hezekiya watemukela* ngenjabulo letitfunywa futsi watikhombisa indlu yakhe lehlala umcebo+ lobewufaka ekhatsi lisiliva, ligolide, emafutsa ebhalisamu kanye nalamanye emafutsa laligugu, tikhali takhe kanye nako konkhe lobekukhona etindzaweni takhe tekubeka umcebo. Kute Hezekiya langazange atikhombise kona letitfunywa endlini* yakhe nakuyo yonkhe indzawo lebeyingaphansi kwakhe.
3 Ngemuva kwaloko Isaya umphrofethi wefika eNkhosini Hezekiya, wayibuta watsi: “Atsiteni lamadvodza, futsi bekabuyaphi?” Hezekiya watsi: “Bekabuya eveni lelikhashane, eBhabhulona.”+
4 Wachubeka wambuta watsi: “Yini layibonile endlini* yakho?” Hezekiya waphendvula watsi: “Abone konkhe lokusendlini* yami. Kute lengingakawakhombisi kona etindzaweni tami letihlala umcebo.”
5 Isaya wabese utsi kuHezekiya: “Lalela nali livi laJehova wemabutfo,
6 Jehova+ utsi: ‘Kuta emalanga lapho konkhe lokusendlini* yakho nako konkhe lobekucongelelwe bokhokho bakho kuze kube ngulamuhla, kuyawutsatfwa kuyiswe eBhabhulona. Kute lokuyawusala.+
7 Lamanye emadvodzana akho lotawatala ayawutsatfwa futsi ayawuba tindvuna tasesigodlweni senkhosi yaseBhabhulona.’”+
8 Hezekiya wabese utsi ku-Isaya: “Livi laJehova lolikhulumile lihle.” Wengeta watsi: “Kuhle nangabe kutawuba nekuthula nenhlalakahle nangisaphila.”*+
