2 Kings 20
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.'
1那時， 希西家 病得要死。 亞摩斯 的兒子先知 以賽亞 去見他，對他說：「耶和華如此說：『你當留遺命與你的家，因為你必死，不能活了。』」
2Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying:
2希西家 就轉臉朝牆，禱告耶和華說：
3'Remember now, O LORD, I beseech Thee, how I have walked before Thee in truth and with a whole heart, and have done that which is good in Thy sight.' And Hezekiah wept sore.
3「耶和華啊，求你記念我在你面前怎樣存完全的心，按誠實行事，又做你眼中所看為善的。」 希西家 就痛哭了。
4And it came to pass, before Isaiah was gone out of the inner court of the city, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying:
4以賽亞 出來，還沒有到中院，耶和華的話就臨到他，說：
5'Return, and say to Hezekiah the prince of My people: Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears; behold, I will heal thee; on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.
5「你回去告訴我民的君 希西家 說：耶和華－你祖 大衛 的上帝如此說：『我聽見了你的禱告，看見了你的眼淚，我必醫治你；到第三日，你必上到耶和華的殿。
6And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for Mine own sake, and for My servant David's sake.'
6我必加增你十五年的壽數，並且我要救你和這城脫離 亞述 王的手。我為自己和我僕人 大衛 的緣故，必保護這城。』」
7And Isaiah said: 'Take a cake of figs.' And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
7以賽亞 說：「當取一塊無花果餅來。」人就取了來，貼在瘡上，王便痊癒了。
8And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah: 'What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up unto the house of the LORD the third day?'
8希西家 問 以賽亞 說：「耶和華必醫治我，到第三日，我能上耶和華的殿，有甚麼兆頭呢？」
9And Isaiah said: 'This shall be the sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that He hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?
9以賽亞 說：「耶和華必成就他所說的。這是他給你的兆頭：你要日影向前進十度呢？是要往後退十度呢？」
10And Hezekiah answered: 'It is a light thing for the shadow to decline ten degrees; nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.'
10希西家 回答說：「日影向前進十度容易，我要日影往後退十度。」
11And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD; and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.
11先知 以賽亞 求告耶和華，耶和華就使 亞哈斯 的日晷向前進的日影，往後退了十度。
12At that time Berodach-baladan the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present unto Hezekiah; for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
12那時， 巴比倫 王 巴拉但 的兒子 米羅達‧巴拉但 聽見 希西家 病而痊癒，就送書信和禮物給他。
13And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and showed them all his treasure-house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures; there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.
13希西家 聽從使者的話，就把他寶庫的金子、銀子、香料、貴重的膏油，和他武庫的一切軍器，並他所有的財寶，都給他們看。他家中和他全國之內， 希西家 沒有一樣不給他們看的。
14Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him: 'What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee?' And Hezekiah said: 'They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.'
14於是先知 以賽亞 來見 希西家 王，問他說：「這些人說甚麼？他們從哪裏來見你？」 希西家 說：「他們從遠方的 巴比倫 來。」
15And he said: 'What have they seen in thy house?' And Hezekiah answered: 'All that is in my house have they seen; there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shown them.'
15以賽亞 說：「他們在你家裏看見了甚麼？」 希西家 說：「凡我家中所有的，他們都看見了；我財寶中沒有一樣不給他們看的。」
16And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah: 'Hear the word of the LORD.
16以賽亞 對 希西家 說：「你要聽耶和華的話，
17Behold, the days come, that all that is in thy house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.
17日子必到，凡你家裏所有的，並你列祖積蓄到如今的，都要被擄到 巴比倫 去，不留下一樣。這是耶和華說的。
18And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, whom thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be officers in the palace of the king of Babylon.'
18並且從你本身所生的眾子，其中必有被擄去在 巴比倫 王宮裏當太監的。」
19Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah: 'Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken.' He said moreover: 'Is it not so, if peace and truth shall be in my days?'
19希西家 對 以賽亞 說：「你所說耶和華的話甚好！若在我的年日中有太平和穩固的景況，豈不是好嗎？」
20Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20希西家 其餘的事和他的勇力，他怎樣挖池、挖溝、引水入城，都寫在 猶大 列王記上。
21And Hezekiah slept with his fathers; and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
21希西家 與他列祖同睡。他兒子 瑪拿西 接續他作王。
