2 Ruodhi 7
1 Elisha nowacho niya, “Winjuru wach ma Jehova Nyasaye. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Kiny kar sa maka ma, nengo gorogoro achiel mar mogo ibiro ngʼiewo silingʼ achiel, kendo gorogoro ariyo mar mogo mar shairi bende nongʼiew silingʼ ariyo e dhoranga Samaria.”
Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time [shall] a measure of fine flour [be sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
2 Jatelo ma ruoth ne yiengore e goke nowachone ngʼat Nyasaye niya, “Winji, kata ka Jehova Nyasaye nyalo yawo dhorangeye mag polo, bende manyalo timore adier?” Elisha nodwoke niya, “Ibiro neno ma gi wengeni iwuon, to ok inicham gimoro amora kuomgi!”
Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, [if] the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see [it] with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
3 Koro ne nitie ji angʼwen ma jodhoho, mane bet e dhoranga dala maduongʼ. Negiwacho e kindgi giwegi niya, “Angʼo momiyo dwabed ka nyaka watho?
And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
4 Ka wawacho ni wabiro dhi e dala maduongʼ, to kech ni kuno kendo wabiro tho. To bende ka wabet ka, pod wabiro mana tho. Kuom mano wadhiuru e kambi jo-Aram mondo wachiwre e lwetgi. Ka giweyowa to wanabed mangima, to ka ginegowa to wanatho.”
If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine [is] in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
5 Kar kogwen negiwuok ma gidhi e kambi jo-Aram. Kane gichopo e dho kambi, kata mana ngʼat achiel ne onge kanyo,
And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, [there was] no man there.
6 nikech Ruoth Nyasaye nosekelo luoro e chuny jo-Aram ma giwinjo geche, farese kod jolweny mangʼeny, mani nomiyo giwacho e kindgi giwegi niya, “Neyeuru kaka ruodh Israel osengʼiewo pinje mag jo-Hiti gi ruodhi mag Misri mondo omonjwa!”
For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, [even] the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
7 Kuom mano negia malo kar kogwen ma giringo ka giweyo hembegi, farese kod punde. Negiweyo kambigi gi mwandu duto mondo gitony gires ngimagi.
Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it [was], and fled for their life.
8 Jodhohogo nodhi nyaka dho kambi ma gidonjo e achiel kuom hembego. Negichamo chiemo kendo gimetho bangʼe gitingʼo fedha, dhahabu kod lewni mine gidhi gipandogi. Negidwogo kendo mi gidonjo e hema machielo, ma gikawo gik moko kanyo kendo gidok gipando.
And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid [it; ] and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence [also], and went and hid [it].
9 Eka negiwacho kendgi giwegi niya, “Ok watim gima kare. Ma en odiechiengʼ mar wach maber, to eka walingʼ-go mana kendwa. Ka warito ma piny oyawore, to wabiro yudo kum. Kuom mano wadhiuru sani sani mondo water wachni ni joka ruoth.”
Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day [is] a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king’s household.
10 Omiyo negidhi magiluongo jorit rangeye mag dala maduongʼ kendo giwachonegi niya, “Ne wadhi e kambi jo-Aram to ok wayudo kata ngʼato achiel kata dwond ngʼato ne ok wawinjo to mana farese motwe gi punde kod hembe mowe mana kaka ne gin.”
So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, [there was] no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they [were].
11 Jorit rangeye nogoyo koko kowinjo wach maberno mi wachno notundo ne joka ruoth.
And he called the porters; and they told [it] to the king’s house within.
12 Ruoth nochungʼ malo otienono mowachone jodonge niya “Abiro nyisou gima jo-Aram osetimonwa. Gingʼeyo ni kech omakowa, omiyo giringo gia e kambigi ka gidhi pondo e bungu, ka giparo ni, ‘Jogi biro wuok oko kendo wabiro dhi ma wakawgi duto ka gingima miwadonji e dala maduongʼ.’”
And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we [be] hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city.
13 Achiel kuom jodonge nodwoko niya, “Yier jomoko odhi e dala maduongʼ mondo okaw farese abich modongʼ kanyo. Ngima joidh faresego biro chalo mana gi ngima jo-Israel mowe ka; adier, gibiro chalo mana gi jo-Israel ma kech kayogi. Kuom mano waorgi mondo gidhi ginon gima timore.”
And one of his servants answered and said, Let [some] take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they [are] as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, [I say], they [are] even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed: ) and let us send and see.
14 Eka ne giyiero geche lweny ariyo gi faresegi kendo ruoth noorogi luwo bangʼ jolweny mag Aram. Nowachone joriemb gechego niya, “Dhiuru mondo unon-ane gima osetimore.”
They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15 Negiluwo bangʼ-gi nyaka aora Jordan mine giyudo ka yo opongʼ gi lewni kod gik moko mane lwar ka jo-Aram ringo ka kihondko ogoyogi. Bangʼ mano jootego noduogo monyiso ruoth gima gisetimo.
And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way [was] full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
16 Eka ji nowuok modhi oyako kambi jo-Aram. Kuom mano nengo gorogoro achiel mar mogo ne en silingʼ achiel to mogo mar shairi gorogoro ariyo nongʼiew silingʼ achiel mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho.
And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was [sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
17 Ruoth noketo jatend lweny mane oyiengore goke cha mondo orit dhorangach, to ji nonyone ka gimwomore e dhorangach motho mana kaka ngʼat Nyasaye ne osekoro e kinde mane ruoth obiro neno janabino e ode.
And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.
18 Notimore mana kaka ngʼat Nyasaye ne osewacho ni ruoth niya, “Kiny e sa maka ma, nengo mar mogo gorogoro achiel nongʼiew silingʼ achiel to mogo mar shairi gorogoro ariyo nongʼiew silingʼ achiel e dhoranga Samaria.”
And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:
19 To jateloni nowachone ngʼat Nyasaye niya, “Winji, kata ka Jehova Nyasaye nyalo yawo dhorangeye mag polo, bende manyalo timore adier?” Ngʼat Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Ibiro nene gi wangʼi, to ok inicham gimoro amora kuome!”
And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, [if] the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
20 Kendo mano e gima ne otimorene, nimar ji nomwomore gie dhorangach monyone mi otho.
And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.
