2 Ruodhi 8

1 Koro Elisha nowachone dhako mane ochiero wuode niya, “Wuogi idhi mabor gi joodi kuma inyalo dake bangʼ ndalo moko, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osekelo kech ma biro tieko higni abiriyo.”

Now Elisha had spoken to the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, "Arise, and go, you and your household, and stay for a while wherever you can; for YHWH has called for a famine. It shall also come on the land seven years."

2 Dhakono nodhi motimo kaka ngʼat Nyasaye nowacho, en kod joode ne giwuok ma gidhi mabor e piny jo-Filistia ma gidakie higni abiriyo.

The woman arose, and did according to the word of the man of God. She went with her household, and lived in the land of the Philistines seven years.

3 Ka higni abiriyo norumo noduogo koa e piny jo-Filistia modhi kwayo ruoth mondo odwokne ode kod lope.

It happened at the seven years' end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines. Then she went forth to cry to the king for her house and for her land.

4 Ruoth ne wuoyo gi Gehazi jatich ngʼat Nyasaye, kowachone niya, “Nyisa e honni madongo ma Elisha osetimo.”

Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, "Please tell me all the great things that Elisha has done."

5 Kane oyudo Gehazi nyiso ruoth kaka ne Elisha ochiero ngʼato motho, to dhako mane Elisha ochiero wuode cha nochopo kanyo mondo okwa ruoth odwokne ode kod lope. Eka Gehazi nowachone ruoth niya, “Ruodha, ma e dhakono, kendo ma e wuode mane Elisha odwogone ngimane.”

It happened, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life him who was dead, that look, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. Gehazi said, "My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life."

6 Eka ruoth nopenjo dhakono kuom wach nyathineno kendo nowachone ni en kamano. Eka ruoth nogolo chik ne jatelo kuom dhakono kowacho niya, “Dwokne dhakono gige duto, kaachiel gi ohala duto mosewuok e puotheno chakre chiengʼ mane oa e pinyni nyaka chiengʼ mane oduogoe.”

When the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, "Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now."

7 Chiengʼ moro Elisha nodhi Damaski moyudo ka Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram tuo. Kane onyis ruoth ni ngʼat Nyasaye osebiro mochopo ka,

Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Aram was sick. It was told him, saying, "The man of God has come here."

8 nowachone Hazael niya, “Kaw mich mondo idhi iromnego ngʼat Nyasaye. Kone openj Jehova Nyasaye ni, ‘Bende abiro chango kuom tuoni?’”

The king said to Hazael, "Take a present in your hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of YHWH by him, saying, 'Will I recover from this sickness?'"

9 Hazael nodhi romo kod Elisha kotingʼo mich mar mwandu motingʼ gi ngamia piero angʼwen ma gin gik mabeyo mag piny Damaski. Nodhi ir Elisha mochungʼ e nyime mowachone niya, “Wuodi ma Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram oora mondo apenji ka bende obiro chango kuom tuoni.”

So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels' burden, and came and stood before him, and said, "Your son Benhadad king of Aram has sent me to you, saying, 'Will I recover from this sickness?'"

10 Elisha nodwoke niya, “Dhi iwachne ni, ‘Kuom adier obiro chango.’ To kata kamano Jehova Nyasaye osenyisa ni obiro tho bangʼe.”

Elisha said to him, "Go, say to him, 'You shall surely recover;' however YHWH has shown me that he shall surely die."

11 Elisha nochomo wangʼe tir kuom Hazael, mi Hazael wiye nokuot. Bangʼe ngʼat Nyasaye nochako ywak.

He settled his gaze steadfastly on him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept.

12 Hazael nopenjo Elisha niya, “Ruodha, iywago angʼo?” To nodwoke niya, “Aywak nikech angʼeyo masira ma ibiro kelone jo-Israel. Ibiro wangʼo kuondegi mochiel motegno, ibiro nego yawuotgi matindo gi ligangla, ibiro nyono nyithindgi matindo kendo ibiro baro iye mon ma yach.”

Hazael said, "Why do you weep, my lord?" He answered, "Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel. You will set their strongholds on fire, and you will kill their young men with the sword, and will dash in pieces their little ones, and rip up their women with child."

13 Hazael nopenjo niya, “Ere kaka jatichni marom gi guok aguoka nyalo timo gik ma kama?” Elisha nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osenyisa ni ibiro bedo ruodh jo-Aram.”

Hazael said, "But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he should do this great thing?" Elisha answered, "YHWH has shown me that you will be king over Aram."

14 Eka Hazael noa ir Elisha modok ir ruodhe. To kane Ben-Hadad openje niya, “Angʼo mane Elisha owachoni.” Hazael nodwoke niya, “Nowachona ni kuom adier ibiro chango.”

Then he departed from Elisha, and came to his master, who said to him, "What did Elisha say to you?" He answered, "He told me that you would surely recover."

15 To kinyne nokawo nanga mapek mobudo e pi, mi oumo wangʼ ruoth mothungʼe nyaka otho. Eka Hazael nobedo ruoth kare.

It happened on the next day, that he took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died. Then Hazael reigned in his place.

16 E higa mar abich mar Joram wuod Ahab ruodh Israel, kane Jehoshafat ne ruodh Juda, Jehoram wuod Jehoshafat nochako tich kaka ruodh Juda.

In the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat then being king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

17 Ne en ja-higni piero adek gariyo kane obedo ruodh Juda, kendo norito Jerusalem kuom higni aboro.

He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign. He reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 Noluwo timbe mag ruodhi Israel, mana kaka jood Ahab notimo, nimar nokendo nyar Ahab. Notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.

He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife. He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH.

19 Kata kamano, Jehova Nyasaye ne ok otieko jo-Juda nikech noparo Daudi jatichne. Nosesingore ne Daudi gi ogandane ni ginibed e loch nyaka chiengʼ.

However YHWH would not destroy Judah, for David his servant's sake, as he promised him to give to him a lamp for his children always.

20 E ndalo loch Jehoram, Edom nongʼanyo ne Juda mi gibedo gi ruodhgi giwegi.

In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

21 Omiyo Jehoram nodhi Zair gi gechene duto mag lweny. Jo-Edom nolwore kaachiel gi gechene mag lweny, to nochiewo gotieno momwomogi; ka jolweny mage to noringo modok dala.

Then Joram passed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, and the captains of the chariots; and the people fled to their tents.

22 Nyaka chil kawuono jo-Edom pod ongʼanyo ne jo-Juda. Jo-Libna bende nongʼanyo e ndalono.

So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

23 To kuom weche moko mane otimore e ndalo loch Jehoram, kod gik moko duto mane otimo, ondiki e kitepe motingʼo weche mag ndalo mag ruodhi Juda.

The rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24 Jehoram notho moyweyo gi kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi, kendo wuode ma Ahazia nobedo ruoth bangʼe.

Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.

25 E higa mar apar gariyo mar loch Joram wuod Ahab ma ruodh Israel, Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nobedo e loch.

In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.

26 Ahazia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gariyo kane obedo ruoth, kendo norito piny kuom achiel kodak Jerusalem. Min mare ne nyinge Athalia, ma nyakwar Omri ruodh Israel.

Twenty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

27 Noluwo timbe mag od Ahab kendo notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka od Ahab nosetimo, nimar ne gin wede e kendgi gi jood Ahab.

He walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, as did the house of Ahab; for he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

28 Ahazia gi Joram wuod Ahab nodhi kedo gi Hazael ruodh Aram e piny Ramoth Gilead. Jo-Aram nohinyo Joram;

He went with Joram the son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead: and the Arameans wounded Joram.

29 omiyo ruoth Joram nodok Jezreel mondo ochangi kuom hinyruok mane jo-Aram ohinyego e piny Ramoth ka nokedo gi Hazael ruodh Aram. Eka Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nodhi Jezreel mondo one Joram wuod Ahab nikech nosehinye.

King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Arameans had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
