Hezekiah Seeks Isaiah’s Help
1Segera sesudah raja Hizkia mendengar itu, dikoyakkannyalah pakaiannya dan diselubunginyalah badannya dengan kain kabung, lalu masuklah ia ke rumah TUHAN. 2Disuruhnyalah juga Elyakim, kepala istana, Sebna, panitera negara, dan yang tua-tua di antara para imam, dengan berselubungkan kain kabung, kepada nabi Yesaya bin Amos. 3Berkatalah mereka kepadanya: "Beginilah kata Hizkia: Hari ini hari kesesakan, hari hukuman dan penistaan; sebab sudah datang waktunya untuk melahirkan anak, tetapi tidak ada kekuatan untuk melahirkannya. 4Mungkin TUHAN, Allahmu, sudah mendengar perkataan juru minuman agung yang telah diutus oleh raja Asyur, tuannya, untuk mencela Allah yang hidup, sehingga TUHAN, Allahmu, mau memberi hukuman karena perkataan-perkataan yang telah didengar-Nya. Maka baiklah engkau menaikkan doa untuk sisa yang masih tinggal ini!"
1Now when King Hezekiah heard the report, he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and entered the house of the LORD. 2Then he sent Eliakim, who was in charge of the household, with Shebna the scribe and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz. 3And they said to him, “This is what Hezekiah says: ‘This day is a day of distress, rebuke, and humiliation; for children have come to the point of birth, and there is no strength to deliver them. 4‘Perhaps the LORD your God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to taunt the living God, and will avenge the words which the LORD your God has heard. Therefore, offer a prayer for the remnant that is left.’”
5Ketika pegawai-pegawai raja Hizkia sampai kepada Yesaya, 6berkatalah Yesaya kepada mereka: "Beginilah kamu katakan kepada tuanmu: Beginilah firman TUHAN: Janganlah engkau takut terhadap perkataan yang kaudengar yang telah diucapkan oleh budak-budak raja Asyur untuk menghujat Aku. 7Sesungguhnya, Aku akan menyuruh suatu roh masuk di dalamnya, sehingga ia mendengar suatu kabar dan pulang ke negerinya; Aku akan membuat dia mati rebah oleh pedang di negerinya sendiri."
5So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah. 6And Isaiah said to them, “This is what you shall say to your master: ‘This is what the LORD says: “Do not be afraid because of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. 7“Behold, I am going to put a spirit in him so that he will hear news and return to his own land. And I will make him fall by the sword in his own land.”’”
8Ketika juru minuman agung pulang, didapatinyalah raja Asyur berperang melawan Libna; sebab sudah didengarnya bahwa raja telah berangkat dari Lakhis. 9Dalam pada itu raja mendengar tentang Tirhaka, raja Etiopia, berita yang demikian: "Ia telah keluar berperang melawan engkau," dan ketika mendengar itu, disuruhnyalah utusan-utusan kepada Hizkia dengan pesan: 10"Beginilah harus kamu katakan kepada Hizkia, raja Yehuda: Janganlah Allahmu yang kaupercayai itu memperdayakan engkau dengan menjanjikan: Yerusalem tidak akan diserahkan ke tangan raja Asyur. 11Sesungguhnya, engkau ini telah mendengar tentang yang dilakukan raja-raja Asyur kepada segala negeri, yakni bahwa mereka telah menumpasnya; masakan engkau ini akan dilepaskan ? 12Sudahkah para allah dari bangsa-bangsa yang telah dimusnahkan oleh nenek moyangku, dapat melepaskan mereka, yakni Gozan, Haran, Rezef dan bani Eden yang di Telasar ? 13Di manakah raja negeri Hamat dan Arpad raja kota Sefarwaim, raja negeri Hena dan Iwa ?"
8Then Rabshakeh returned and found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah, for he had heard that the king had left Lachish. 9Now he heard them say regarding Tirhakah king of Cush, “He has come out to fight against you,” and when he heard it he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, 10“This is what you shall say to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you by saying, “Jerusalem will not be handed over to the king of Assyria.” 11‘Behold, you yourself have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands, destroying them completely. So will you be saved? 12‘Did the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed save them: Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the sons of Eden who were in Telassar? 13‘Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, and of Hena and Ivvah?’”
Hezekiah’s Prayer in the Temple
14Hizkia menerima surat itu dari tangan para utusan, lalu membacanya; kemudian pergilah ia ke rumah TUHAN dan membentangkan surat itu di hadapan TUHAN. 15Hizkia berdoa di hadapan TUHAN, katanya: 16"Ya TUHAN semesta alam, Allah Israel, yang bertakhta di atas kerubim ! Hanya Engkau sendirilah Allah segala kerajaan di bumi; Engkaulah yang menjadikan langit dan bumi. 17Sendengkanlah telinga-Mu, ya TUHAN, dan dengarlah; bukalah mata-Mu, ya TUHAN, dan lihatlah; dengarlah segala perkataan Sanherib yang telah dikirimnya untuk mencela Allah yang hidup. 18Ya TUHAN, memang raja-raja Asyur telah memusnahkan semua bangsa dan negeri-negeri mereka 19dan menaruh para allah mereka ke dalam api, sebab mereka bukanlah Allah, hanya buatan tangan manusia, kayu dan batu; sebab itu dapat dibinasakan orang. 20Maka sekarang, ya TUHAN, Allah kami, selamatkanlah kami dari tangannya, supaya segala kerajaan di bumi mengetahui, bahwa hanya Engkau sendirilah TUHAN."
14Then Hezekiah took the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went up to the house of the LORD and spread it out before the LORD. 15Hezekiah prayed to the LORD, saying, 16“LORD of armies, God of Israel, who is enthroned above the cherubim, You are the God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You made heaven and earth. 17“Incline Your ear, LORD, and hear; open Your eyes, LORD, and see; and listen to all the words of Sennacherib, who sent them to taunt the living God. 18“Truly, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the countries and their lands, 19and have thrown their gods into the fire, for they were not gods but only the work of human hands, wood and stone. So they have destroyed them. 20“But now LORD, our God, save us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that You alone, LORD, are God.”
God Answers through Isaiah
21Lalu Yesaya bin Amos menyuruh orang kepada Hizkia mengatakan: "Beginilah firman TUHAN, Allah Israel: Tentang yang telah kaudoakan kepada-Ku mengenai Sanherib, raja Asyur, 22inilah firman yang telah diucapkan TUHAN mengenai dia: Anak dara, yaitu puteri Sion, telah menghina engkau, telah mengolok-olokkan engkau; dan puteri Yerusalem telah geleng-geleng kepala di belakangmu. 23Siapakah yang engkau cela dan engkau hujat ? terhadap siapakah engkau menyaringkan suaramu, dan memandang dengan sombong-sombong ? Terhadap Yang Mahakudus, Allah Israel ! 24Dengan perantaraan hamba-hambamu engkau telah mencela Tuhan, dan engkau telah berkata: Dengan banyaknya keretaku aku naik ke tempat-tempat tinggi di pegunungan, ke tempat yang paling jauh di gunung Libanon; aku telah menebang pohon-pohon arasnya yang tinggi besar, pohon-pohon sanobarnya yang terpilih; aku telah masuk ke tempat tinggi yang paling ujung, ke hutan pohon-pohonannya yang lebat. 25Aku ini telah menggali air dan telah minum air; aku telah mengeringkan dengan telapak kakiku segala sungai di Mesir ! 26Bukankah telah kaudengar, bahwa Aku telah menentukannya dari jauh hari dan telah merancangnya dari zaman purbakala ? Sekarang Aku mewujudkannya, bahwa engkau membuat sunyi senyap kota-kota yang berkubu menjadi timbunan batu, 27sedang penduduknya yang tak berdaya menjadi terkejut dan malu; mereka menjadi seperti tumbuh-tumbuhan di padang dan seperti rumput hijau, seperti rumput di atas sotoh, atau gandum yang layu sebelum ia masak. 28Aku tahu, jika engkau bangun atau duduk, jika keluar atau masuk, atau jika engkau mengamuk terhadap Aku. 29Oleh karena engkau telah mengamuk terhadap Aku, dan kata-kata keangkuhanmu telah naik sampai ke telinga-Ku, maka Aku akan menaruh kelikir-Ku pada hidungmu dan kekang-Ku pada bibirmu, dan Aku akan memulangkan engkau melalui jalan, dari mana engkau datang.
21Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent word to Hezekiah, saying, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘Because you have prayed to Me about Sennacherib king of Assyria, 22this is the word that the LORD has spoken against him:
“She has shown contempt for you and derided you,
The virgin daughter of Zion;
The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head behind you! 23“Whom have you taunted and blasphemed?
And against whom have you raised your voice
And haughtily raised your eyes?
Against the Holy One of Israel! 24“Through your servants you have taunted the Lord,
And you have said, ‘With my many chariots I came up to the heights of the mountains,
To the remotest parts of Lebanon;
And I cut down its tall cedars and its choice junipers.
And I will come to its highest peak, its thickest forest. 25‘I dug wells and drank waters,
And with the sole of my feet I dried up
All the canals of Egypt.’ 26“Have you not heard?
Long ago I did it,
From ancient times I planned it.
Now I have brought it about
That you would turn fortified cities into ruined heaps. 27“Therefore their inhabitants were powerless,
They were shattered and put to shame;
They were like the vegetation of the field and the green grass,
Like grass on the housetops that is scorched before it has grown. 28“But I know your sitting down,
Your going out, your coming in,
And your raging against Me. 29“Because of your raging against Me
And because your complacency has come up to My ears,
I will put My hook in your nose
And My bridle in your lips,
And I will turn you back by the way that you came.
“She has shown contempt for you and derided you,
The virgin daughter of Zion;
The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head behind you! 23“Whom have you taunted and blasphemed?
And against whom have you raised your voice
And haughtily raised your eyes?
Against the Holy One of Israel! 24“Through your servants you have taunted the Lord,
And you have said, ‘With my many chariots I came up to the heights of the mountains,
To the remotest parts of Lebanon;
And I cut down its tall cedars and its choice junipers.
And I will come to its highest peak, its thickest forest. 25‘I dug wells and drank waters,

30Dan inilah yang akan menjadi tanda bagimu, hai Hizkia: Dalam tahun ini orang makan apa yang tumbuh sendiri, dan dalam tahun yang kedua, apa yang tumbuh dari tanaman yang pertama, tetapi dalam tahun yang ketiga, menaburlah kamu, menuai, membuat kebun anggur dan memakan buahnya. 31Dan orang-orang yang terluput di antara kaum Yehuda, yaitu orang-orang yang masih tertinggal, akan berakar pula ke bawah dan menghasilkan buah ke atas. 32Sebab dari Yerusalem akan keluar orang-orang yang tertinggal dan dari gunung Sion orang-orang yang terluput; giat cemburu TUHAN semesta alam akan melakukan hal ini.
30“Then this shall be the sign for you: you will eat this year what grows of itself, in the second year what grows from the same, and in the third year sow, harvest, plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. 31“The survivors that are left of the house of Judah will again take root downward and bear fruit upward. 32“For out of Jerusalem a remnant will go, and out of Mount Zion survivors. The zeal of the LORD of armies will perform this.”’
33Sebab itu beginilah firman TUHAN mengenai raja Asyur: Ia tidak akan masuk ke kota ini dan tidak akan menembakkan panah ke sana; juga ia tidak akan mendatanginya dengan perisai dan tidak akan menimbun tanah menjadi tembok untuk mengepungnya. 34Melalui jalan, dari mana ia datang, ia akan pulang, tetapi ke kota ini ia tidak akan masuk, demikianlah firman TUHAN. 35Dan Aku akan memagari kota ini untuk menyelamatkannya, oleh karena Aku dan oleh karena Daud, hamba-Ku."
33“Therefore, this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria: ‘He will not come to this city nor shoot an arrow there; and he will not come before it with a shield, nor heap up an assault ramp against it. 34‘By the way that he came, by the same he will return, and he will not come to this city,’ declares the LORD. 35‘For I will protect this city to save it for My own sake, and for My servant David’s sake.’”
Assyrians Destroyed
36Keluarlah Malaikat TUHAN, lalu dibunuh-Nyalah seratus delapan puluh lima ribu orang di dalam perkemahan Asyur. Keesokan harinya pagi-pagi tampaklah, semuanya bangkai orang-orang mati belaka! 37Sebab itu berangkatlah Sanherib, raja Asyur dan pulang, lalu tinggallah ia di Niniwe. 38Pada suatu kali ketika ia sujud menyembah di dalam kuil Nisrokh, allahnya, maka Adramelekh dan Sarezer, anak-anaknya, membunuh dia dengan pedang, dan mereka meloloskan diri ke tanah Ararat. Kemudian Esarhadon, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
36Then the angel of the LORD went out and struck 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when the rest got up early in the morning, behold, all of the 185,000 were dead. 37So Sennacherib the king of Assyria departed and returned home and lived in Nineveh. 38Then it came about, as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer killed him with the sword; and they escaped to the land of Ararat. And his son Esarhaddon became king in his place.
