1 Ngaloo mihla wayesifa uHezekiya, eza kufa. Waya umprofeti uIsaya, unyana ka-Amotse, wathi kuye, Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Yolela; ngokuba ùya kufa wena, akuyi kuphila.
2 Wabubhekisa eludongeni ubuso bakhe, wathandaza kuYehova, esithi,
3 Khawukhumbule, ndiyakukhunga, Yehova, okokuba ndihambé phambi kwakho ngokunyanisa nangentliziyo ephelelisileyo, ndakwenza okulungileyo emehlweni akho. Wasitsho uHezekiya isililo esikhulu.
4 Kwathi, uIsaya engekaphumi kophakathi umzi, lafika ilizwi likaYehova kuye, lisithi,
5 Buya uye kuthi kuHezekiya, ingànga yabantu bam, Utsho uYehova, uThixo kaDavide uyihlo, ukuthi, Ndiwuvile umthandazo wakho, ndizibonile iinyembezi zakho; uyabona, ndiya kukuphilisa; ngomhla wesithathu uya kunyuka uye endlwini kaYehova;
6 ndongèze kwimihla yakho ishumi elinesihlanu leminyaka; ndikuhlàngule wena nalo mzi esandleni sokumkani waseAsiriya, ndiwukhusele lo mzi ngenxa yam, nangenxa kaDavide umkhonzi wam.
7 Wathi uIsaya, Thabathani isicumba samakhiwane; basithabatha ke, babeka ethumbeni, waphila.
