The sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "See now, the place where we dwell before you is too small for us.

Please let us go to the Jordan, and every man take a beam from there, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell." He answered, "Go."
3 Te vaengah pakhat loh, “Ueh mai lamtah na sal rhoek taengah pongpa mai,” a ti nah hatah, “Ka pongpa bitni,” a ti nah.
One said, "Please be pleased to go with your servants." He answered, "I will go."
4 Amih neh cet tih Jordan la a pawk vaengah thing te a saek uh.
So he went with them. When they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.
5 Pakhat loh tungpum a vung vaengah thi te tui khuila a tlak pah. Te dongah pang tih, “Ka boeipa aw, te te ka vat dae ta,” a ti nah.
But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water. Then he cried, and said, "Alas, my master. For it was borrowed."
6 Te dongah Pathen kah hlang loh, “Melam a tlak,” a ti nah tih a hmuen te a tueng. Te phoeiah thing a saih tih te ah te a khoh hata thi te a loe hang.
The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" He showed him the place. He cut down a stick, threw it in there, and made the iron float.
7 Te phoeiah, “Namah ham rhut laeh,” a ti nah dongah a kut a yueng tih a rhuh.
He said, "Take it." So he put out his hand and took it.
8 Te vaengah aka om Aram manghai loh Israel a vathoh thil. A sal rhoek te a uen tih, “Kamah kah buep te tongmang hmuen ah,” a ti nah.
Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel; and he took counsel with his servants, saying, "My camp will be in such and such a place."
9 Pathen kah hlang loh Israel manghai te a tah tih, “He hmuen la kat ham te ngaithuen, Aram te singling singloei lah ko te,” a ti nah.
The man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, "Beware that you not pass such a place; for the Arameans are coming down there."
10 Pathen kah hlang loh anih taengah a thui pah hmuen la Israel manghai a tueih vaengah tah a thuituen phoeiah khaw a thuituen dongah a tuem uh te vai bueng pawt tih hnavoei bueng bal moenih.
The king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of; and he saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Hekah ol soah Aram manghai kah lungbuei tah thikthuek coeng. A sal rhoek te a khue tih amih te, “Kai taengah na puen uh mah nim? Mamih khui lamloh he Israel manghai taengla aka puen te unim?” a ti nah.
The heart of the king of Aram was very troubled about this. He called his servants, and said to them, "Won't you show me which of us is for the king of Israel?"
12 Tedae a sal rhoek khuikah pakhat loh, “Moenih, ka boei manghai aw, Israel ah tonghma Elisha om ta, na imkhui ah thingkong dongah na thui ol khaw Israel manghai taengla puen ta,” a ti nah.
One of his servants said, "No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom."
13 Te dongah, “Cet uh, anih te melam nim so uh, hlang ka tueih saeh lamtah anih ka tu eh?,” a ti nah. Tedae a taengla puen tih, “Dothan ah om ke,” a ti nah.
He said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and get him." It was told him, saying, "Look, he is in Dothan."
14 Te lam te marhang neh leng neh tatthai muep a tueih. Khoyin ah a paan uh tih khopuei te pin a vael uh.
Therefore he sent horses, chariots, and a great army there. They came by night, and surrounded the city.
15 Pathen kah hlang aka bongyong te thoo tih, pai tih, a tawn uh vaengah tah caem loh khopuei te marhang neh leng neh tarha ana vael. Te dongah a tueihyoeih loh Elisha te, “Ka boeipa aw, metlam n'saii eh?” a ti nah.
When the servant of the man of God had risen early, and gone out, look, an army with horses and chariots was around the city. His servant said to him, "Alas, my master. What shall we do?"
16 Tedae, “Rhih boeh, mamih taengkah he amih taengkah lakah yet,” a ti nah.
He answered, "Do not be afraid; for those who are with us are more than those who are with them."
17 Elisha te thangthui tih, “BOEIPA aw, a mik he tueng sak mai lamtah hmu van saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah BOEIPA loh tueihyoeih kah mik te a tueng sak tih tlang kah marhang, leng a bae neh Elisha kaepvai kah hmai te kak a hmuh.
Then Elisha prayed and said, "LORD, please open his eyes, that he may see." The LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and look, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha.
18 Anih taengla a suntlak uh vaengah Elisha te BOEIPA taengah thangthui tih, “Hekah namtom he mikdael neh ngawn laeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah amih te Elisha ol bangla mikdael neh a ngawn.
When they came down to him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, and said, "Please strike this people with blindness." He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
19 Te vaengah Elisha loh amih te, “He he longpuei moenih, he he khopuei bal moenih. Kai hnuk ham vai uh lamtah na tlap uh hlang taengla nangmih te kan thak eh?,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah amih te Samaria la a thak.
Elisha said to them, "This is not the way, neither is this the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek." He led them to Samaria.
20 Amih te Samaria la a kun van neh Elisha loh, “BOEIPA amih mik he tueng sak lamtah hmu uh saeh,” a ti. BOEIPA loh amih mik te a tueng sak tih a hmuh uh vaengah Samaria khui la tarha a pawk pah.
It happened, when they had come into Samaria, that Elisha said, "LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see." The LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and look, they were in the midst of Samaria.
21 Amih te a hmuh vaengah Israel manghai loh Elisha te, “A pa ka ngawn la ka ngawn aya?” a ti nah.
The king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, "My father, shall I strike them? Shall I strike them?"
22 Tedae, “Ngawn boeh, na cunghang neh na lii neh na sol te nim na ngawn eh? Amih mikhmuh ah buh neh tui khaw tawn pah, a caak a ok uh phoeiah a boei rhoek taengla mael uh saeh,” a ti nah.
He answered, "You shall not strike them. Would you strike those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master."
23 Te dongah amih ham buhloei muep a tael pah tih a caak a ok uh phoeiah amih te a tueih. A boei rhoek taengla a mael uh phoeiah tah Aram caem te Israel khohmuen la mop ham khoep uh voel pawh.
He prepared great feast for them. When they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. The bands of Aram stopped raiding the land of Israel.
24 Te phoeiah pataeng Aram manghai Benhadad loh amah kah caem boeih te a coi. Te phoeiah cet tih Samaria te a dum.
It happened after this, that Benhadad king of Aram gathered all his army, and went up and besieged Samaria.
25 Te dongah Samaria ah khokha la muep pai. Amih taengah laak lu pakhat te tangka sawmrhet neh, vahui aek pataeng, vahui aek boem pali he tangka phik nga la a om pha hil a dum uh.
There was a great famine in Samaria. Look, they besieged it, until a donkey's head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.
26 Te tlam te a om vaengah Israel manghai te vongtung dongah a pongpa vaengah a taengah huta pakhat pang tih, “Ka boei manghai aw n'khang lah,” a ti nah.
As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, saying, "Help, my lord, O king."
27 Tedae, “BOEIPA loh nang n'khang pawt atah me lamkah nim? Cangtilhmuen lamkah nim? va-am lamkah nim nang kang khang eh?” a ti nah.
He said, "If the LORD doesn't help you, from where could I help you? From of the threshing floor, or from the winepress?"
28 Te phoeiah manghai loh anih te, “Nang te balae?” a ti nah hatah, “He huta loh kai taengah, 'Na capa te m'pae lamtah tihnin ah ca sih, thangvuen ah kai capa he n'caak bitni,’ a ti.
The king said to her, "What ails you?" She answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.'
29 Te dongah kai capa te ka thong rhoi tih ka caak rhoi. Tedae hnin at ah tah anih te, 'Na capa te m'pae lamtah ca van pawn sih,’ ka ti nah hatah a capa te a thuh,” a ti nah.
So we boiled my son, and ate him: and I said to her on the next day, 'Give your son, that we may eat him;' and she has hidden her son."
30 Huta ol te manghai loh a yaak van neh a himbai te a phen. Amah khaw vongtung dongah a caeh doela pilnam a sawt vaengah a pum dongkah tlamhni te a khui hil tarha a hmuh.
It happened, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he tore his clothes. Now he was passing by on the wall, and the people looked and saw that he had sackcloth against his skin.
31 Te dongah, “Tihnin ah anih soah Shaphat capa Elisha kah lu te a om pueng atah Pathen loh kai he n'rhaem saeh lamtah n'talh van saeh,” a ti.
Then he said, "God do so to me, and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stay on him this day."
32 Elisha te amah im ah ngol tih a taengah a ham rhoek ngol uh. Te vaengah a mikhmuh ah hlang a tueih pah dae anih taengla puencawn a pha hlan ah amah loh a ham rhoek te, “Hlang ngawn capa a tueih te na hmuh uh nama? So uh kai lu aka tloek ham ni ke. Puencawn ha pawk hlan ah thohkhaih te khai uh lamtah anih te thohkhaih neh nen thiluh. A hnuk kah te a boei kholaeh ol pawt nim?” a ti nah.
But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. Then the king sent a man from before him; but before the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, "Do you see how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and hold the door shut against him. Isn't the sound of his master's feet behind him?"
33 Amih te a voek li vaengah puencawn khaw anih taengla pakcak suntla tih, “Boethae he BOEIPA taeng lamkah ni he, balae tih BOEIPA te n'ngaiuep voel eh?” a ti.
While he was still talking with them, look, the messenger came down to him. Then he said, "Look, this disaster is from the LORD. Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"
