Ayɛ te sɛ deɛ mmɔfra awoɔ duru so na ahoɔden a wɔde bɛwo wɔn nni hɔ. 4 Nanso, ebia Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn ate sɛ Asiria ɔnanmusini no regu Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ no anim ase, na wɔbɛtwe nʼaso wɔ ne nsɛnkeka no ho. Enti mommɔ mpaeɛ mma nkaeɛfoɔ a wɔte nkwa mu no.”
5 Na ɔhene Hesekia mpanimfoɔ no kɔkaa ɔhene nkra no kyerɛɛ Yesaia, 6 na Yesaia buaa sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ wo wura sɛ, ‘Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Mma abususɛm a Asiriahene asomafoɔ no ka tiaa me no nha wo. 7 Montie!

Na ansa na ɔbɛsane akohyia akodɔm no, ɔtoo saa nkra yi sɛ wɔmfa nkɔma Hesekia wɔ Yerusalem. 10 “Monka nkyerɛ Yudahene Hesekia sɛ: Ɛmma onyame a wode wo ho ato no so no nnaadaa mo nka sɛ, ‘Asiriahene rentumi mfa Yerusalem.’ 11 Moate deɛ Asiria ahemfo ayɛ amanaman no nyinaa.

14 Hesekia nsa kaa krataa a abɔfoɔ no de baeɛ no, ɔkenkaneeɛ. Afei ɔforo kɔɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu kɔtrɛɛ mu wɔ Awurade anim. 15 Na Hesekia bɔɔ mpaeɛ kyerɛɛ Awurade sɛ: “Ao, Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn a wodi ɔhene firi Kerubim ntam, wo nko ara na woyɛ Onyankopɔn wɔ asase so ahennie nyinaa so. Wo na wobɔɔ ɔsoro ne asase. 16 Brɛ wʼaso ase, Ao Awurade, na tie! Bue wʼani, Ao Awurade, na hwɛ! Tie Sanaherib nsɛm a ɔka de bu Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ no animtiaa.
17 “Awurade, ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ Asiria ahemfo asɛe aman yi nyinaa, sɛdeɛ nkra no ka no. 18 Na wɔato aman yi anyame agu ogya mu, ahye wɔn. Asiriafoɔ no tumi sɛe wɔn ɛfiri sɛ na wɔnyɛ anyame koraa.

Na woaka sɛ,
“Mede me nteaseɛnam bebrebe no

Mobɛyɛ bobe nturo, na moadi nʼaba no.
30 Na mo a moaka Yuda a moatumi agyina ntua no mu ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ no ano no,

35 Saa anadwo no, Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ kɔɔ Asiria sraban mu, kɔkumm Asiria akodɔm no mpem ɔha aduɔwɔtwe enum. Asiriafoɔ a wɔkaeɛ no nyanee anɔpa no, wɔhunuu sɛ afunu gugu mmɔntene so baabiara. 36 Na Asiriahene Sanaherib gyaee ɔko no, kɔɔ nʼankasa nʼasase so. Ɔkɔtenaa nʼahenkuro Ninewe mu.
