2 Lengte 7

1 Elisha’n adonbut in, “Pakai thupeh ngaijin! Pakaiyin hitin aseije, tuphat don jingteng le Samaria thil kijohna mun’ah antuitah chu atena khat dimchu dangka khatna kijohding, sakol chaang atena dim ni jong dangka khat dinga hung kijoh ding ahi,” ati.

And Eliseus said: Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus saith the Lord: Tomorrow about this time a bushel of fine hour shall be sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, in the gate of Samaria.

2 Hichun lengpa kithopi jing asepai lamkaipa chun Pathen mipa jah a chun, “Pakai amatah in vanna kona van bangkot ahondoh a, hitobang thilchu abol ding hijongleh hithei mong ding hi nam?” atin ahileh Elisha’n jong adonbut in, “Athilsoh ho chu namit tah a vang namu ding ahin, khatcha naneh khah louding ahi,” atipeh tan ahi.

Then one of the lords, upon whose hand the king leaned, answering the man of God, said: If the Lord should make flood-gates in heaven, can that possibly be which thou sayest? And he said: Thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

3 Tun khopi kelkot lutna kom’ah miphah li ana um’in ahi. Amaho chu khat le khat akidongto uvin, “Eiho hi thi ngah mai maija ihiti tou thim jingdiu hitam?” akitiuvin ahi.

Now there were four lepers, at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another: What mean we to stay here till we die?

4 “Eiho hitia hi ium uleh anngol’a ithi teidiu ahi, khopi sunga lut jong leuhen kel-khoh jeh a ithi thou thou diu ahi, hijehchun Syria sepaite kom’ahin kipelut jing leuhen eihing hoi maitheiju ahi, ijemtia eitha jingu jongleh ithi thou thoudiu ahin, hichu phajolou ham?” akitiuve.

If we will enter into the city, we shall die with the famine: and if we will remain here, we must also die: come, therefore, and let us run over to the camp of the Syrians. If they spare us, we shall live: but if they kill us, we shall but die.

5 Hiti chun jingpi phalvah-in amaho Syria ngahmun ah alut tauvin ahi. Hitia chu angah munna agalut uleh koimacha ana umpon ahi,

So they arose in the evening, to go to the Syrian camp, And when they were come to the first part of the camp of the Syrians, they found no man there.

6 Ajeh chu Pathen’in sakol lhaigin leh sakol kangtalai lhaigin chule sepai tamtah hung lhailut gin akithonsah in ahileh Israel lengpa hin, “Hit mite le Egypt mite akikou uva eihin nokhum mu ahitai,” atiuva kaple penga jammang gam'a ahitauve.

For the Lord had made them hear, in the camp of Syria, the noise of chariots, and of horses, and of a very great army, and they said one to another: Behold the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hethites, and of the Egyptians, and they are come upon us.

7 Hijeh a chu kicha behseh uva aponbuh u, asakol teu, asangan teu chuleh athildang ho jouse adalhah uva ahinkhou kihuhhing nading a ana jamdoh gam’ah ahitauve.

Wherefore they arose, and fled away in the dark, and left their tents, and their horses and asses in the camp, and fled, desiring to save their lives.

8 Miphah hochu ponbuh sungkhatna alut’un chuleh khat’ah alut’un aneuvin adon’un, sana dangka leh ponho akichom’un akisel’un ahi.

So when these lepers were come to the beginning of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank: and they took from thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went, and hid it: and they came again, and went into another tent, and carried from thence in like manner, and hid it.

9 Ajonan amaho akihouvun, “Ibol uhi adih tapoi, tunihi nikhopha khat ahibouve, hichehi eihon mitoh ichankhom lou uhi adihpoi, eihon hitia hi jing geija iche piuva ahileh hamsetna itotei diu ahi. Hijeh chun hung’un eiho cheu hitin lengte khopi sunga miho gahetsah uhite,” akitiuvin ahi.

Then they said one to another: We do not well: for this is a day of good tidings. If we hold our peace, and do not tell it till the morning, we shall be charged with a crime: come, let us go and tell it in the king’s court.

10 Hiti chun amaho acheuvin khopi sunga kelkot ngah ho chu thilsoh ho agahetsah tauvin ahi. “Keiho Syria mite ngahmun na kalut’un ahile koimacha anaum tapon ahi! Sakol hole Sangan ho ana kihen nalaijin, ponbuh ho jong abang bang in ana um’in, mihem koimacha anaum tapon ahi,” atiuve.

So they came to the gate of the city, and told them, saying: We went to the camp of the Syrians, and we found no man there, but horses, and asses tied, and the tents standing.

11 Hichun kelkot ngahho chun khopi sunga mipiho lah’a chun hasap in asamphong tauvin ahi.

Then the guards of the gate went, and told it within the king’s palace.

12 Lengpa chu jan khangkim in alupna a konin ahung thoudoh in, anoija lamkai pipui ho kom’a chun hitin aseitan ahi, “Keiman thilsoh hohi kahei, Syria mite hin eiho an ngolla ium uhi ahet ahin, hijeh a chu angah mun u adalhah uva gamlah’a gakisel’ah ahiuve. Amaho hin khopi idalhah uva ipotdoh tenguleh eihohi ahinga matna khopi chu lonkhum ding atiu ahi,” ati.

And he arose in the night and said to his servants: I tell you what the Syrians have done to us: They know that we suffer great famine, and therefore they are gone out of the camp, and lie hid in the fields, saying: When they come out of the city we shall take them alive, and then we may get into the city.

13 Anoija lamkai holah’a khat chun ahin donbut’in, “Ipi hileh eihon gakholtoh poupou uhite. Sakol athimoh nga hokhu mangchao hitin akholtoh ding sol’u hite. Ijemtia achung'uva thilkhat ahungso tah jongleh, hilai mun ah umjong leu eiho chengto ithikhom thou thoudiu ahin, akhoh dehpoi,” ahin tin ahi.

And one of his servants answered: Let us take the five horses that are remaining in the city (because there are no more in the whole multitude of Israel, for the rest are consumed, ) and let us send and see.

14 Hiti chun sakol kangtalai nichu agongun lengpan Syria sepaite chunga thilsoh chu gakhol toh dingin asol tauvin ahi.

They brought therefore two horses, and the king sent into the camp of the Syrians, saying: Go, and see.

15 Amaho Jordan vadung geijin acheuvin Syria sepaite ponho, manchahho ajamcheh nauva apai thanghou chu aga mu uvin ahung kile un, lengpa kom’a aseitauvin ahi.

And they went after them as far as the Jordan: and behold all the way was full of garments, and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their fright, and the messengers returned and told the king.

16 Hijou chun Samaria khopi miho chu alhaidoh un, Syria te ngahmun chu agachom tauvin ahi. Hiti chun antuitah tah chu atena dim nga chu dangka khat aman’in chuleh sakol chang atena dim som chu dangka khat man’in, Pakaiyin ana tepbang bang chun akijoh tan ahi.

And the people going out pillaged the camp of the Syrians: and a bushel of fine flour was sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, according to the word of the Lord.

17 Lengpan a sepai lamkaipa chu kelkot na mipi ting ding chun ana pansah in ahileh mipi hon anolhu uvin, achonlih tauvin ahi. Hiti chun Pathen mipan ain na hung lengpa kom’a ana phondoh tobang bang chun ana sohdoh tan ahi.

And the king appointed that lord on whose hand he leaned, to stand at the gate: and the people trod upon him in the entrance of the gate; and he died, as the man of God had said, when the king came down to him.

18 Pathen mipan lengpa kom’achun, “Jing nikho tuphat dontah leh antui tah chu atena dim nga chu dangka khatna kicho ding chuleh sakol chang atena dim som chu dangka khatna kicho ding,” anati ahi.

And it came to pass according to the word of the man of God, which he spoke to the king, when he said: Two bushels of barley shall be for a stater, and a bushel of fine flour for a stater, at this very time tomorrow in the gate of Samaria.

19 Hiche pet tah’a chu lengpa noija sepai lamkai pachun, “Pakaiyin vanna van bangkot jouse ahon lhahding hijongleh hithei ponte ana tin,” ahileh, Pathen mipachun, “Nangin thilsoh chu na mittah a namu ding ama vang naneh mantah louding ahi,” ana tipeh chu,

When that lord answered the man of God, and said: Although the Lord should make flood-gates in heaven, could this come to pass which thou sayest? And he said to him: Thou shalt see with thy eyes, and shalt not eat thereof.

20 Alollhina anahitai, ajeh chu mipihon amachu kotphung ah chun ana chonlih tauvin ahi.

And so it fell out to him as it was foretold, and the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died.
