2 Kings 2
1 When the LORD was about to take Elijah up by a whirlwind into heaven, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
BAWIPA ni Elijah heh bongparui hoi kalvan lah tawm hanlah ao toung dawkvah, Elijah teh Elisha hoi Gilgal hoi a cei roi.
2 Elijah said to Elisha, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel.” Elisha said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel.
Elijah ni, Elisha koevah pahren lahoi hi la awm loe. Bangdawk tet pawiteh, BAWIPA ni Bethel vah pou cei hanelah na patoun atipouh. Hatei Elisha ni BAWIPA hoi na hringnae a hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh ati teh Bethel lah a ceicathuk roi.
3 The sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He said, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
Bethel kaawm e profet capanaw Elisha koe a tho awh teh, sahnin vah BAWIPA ni na bawipa hah na la pouh han tie na panue maw telah a pacei awh. Oe ka panue doeh, duem awm awh atipouh.
4 Elijah said to him, “Elisha, please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to Jericho.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they came to Jericho.
Elijah ni, Elisha koe pahren lahoi hi la awmh. BAWIPA ni Jeriko kho pou ceitakhai hanelah na patoun atipouh. Hatei BAWIPA a hring e hoi nang na hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh ati teh Jeriko vah pou a cei roi.
5 The sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He answered, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
Jeriko kaawm e profet capanaw teh Elisha koe a cei teh, sahnin vah BAWIPA ni na bawipa he na la pouh han toe tie na panue maw atipouh awh. Oe ka panue bokheiyah duem awm awh telah a pathung.
6 Elijah said to him, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to the Jordan.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” Then they both went on.
Elijah ni pahren lahoi hi ma la awm lawih. BAWIPA ni Jordan pou cei hanelah, na patoun telah atipouh. BAWIPA hoi nang na hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh atipouh teh kahni touh hoi rei a cei roi.
7 Fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite them at a distance; and they both stood by the Jordan.
Hahoi profet capanaw thung dawk hoi tami 50 touh a cei teh kahni touh hoi Jordan palang a kangdue navah, ahnimouh koe lahoi kahlathnawn a kamlang roi teh kahlathnawn lah a kangdue roi.
8 Elijah took his mantle, and rolled it up, and struck the waters; and they were divided here and there, so that they both went over on dry ground.
Elijah ni a hni hah a la teh, a taoung hnukkhu, tui hah a hem teh a vangvang lah a kâkapek. Hahoi ahnimouh roi teh talai kaphui dawk a cei roi.
9 When they had gone over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask what I shall do for you, before I am taken from you.” Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be on me.”
Palang namran lah a pha roi torei teh, Elijah ni Elisha koe kai hoi kamphei hoehnahlan vah, bangmaw na sak pouh han, het leih atipouh. Elisha ni nang ni na coe e muitha let hni touh na poe loe atipouh.
10 He said, “You have asked a hard thing. If you see me when I am taken from you, it will be so for you; but if not, it will not be so.”
Ahni ni ka ru poung e doeh na hei, ka ru nakunghai thoseh, nang koehai kai yout la e lah ka o navah na hmawt pawiteh, na coe han. Na hmawt hoehpawiteh, na coe mahoeh atipouh.
11 As they continued on and talked, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
Hahoi teh cungtalah reirei pou a cei roi teh, khenhaw! hmaileng hoi hmaimarang a kamnue teh a rahak roi dawk a bo teh, a kâkapek roi. Elijah teh bongparui dawk hoi, kalvan a luen.
12 Elisha saw it, and he cried, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” He saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them in two pieces.
Hahoi Elisha ni a hmu teh, Apa, Apa Isarelnaw e leng hoi marangransanaw hoi kâvan e, telah a hram teh, ama teh hmawt hoeh toe. A hni hah a kuet teh kahni touh lah a phi.
13 He also took up Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
Elijah koehoi e ka bawt e hni hah a la, hahoi a ban teh Jordan palang teng a kangdue.
14 He took Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and struck the waters, and said, “Where is the LORD, the God of Elijah?” When he also had struck the waters, they were divided apart, and Elisha went over.
Ka bawt e Elijah e hni hah a la teh, tui a hem nah, BAWIPA, Elijah Cathut teh nâmaw ao telah ati. Hahoi tui bout a hem torei teh avangvanglah a kâkapek teh Elisha teh namran lah a takhang.
15 When the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho facing him saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” They came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
Jeriko kho e profet capanaw ni Elisha a hmu awh toteh, Elijah e muitha Elisha koe ao toe telah ati awh. Ahni kâhmo hanlah a cei awh teh talai dawkvah a tabo awh.
16 They said to him, “See now, there are with your servants fifty strong men. Please let them go and seek your master. Perhaps the LORD’s Spirit has taken him up, and put him on some mountain or into some valley.” He said, “Do not send them.”
Ahnimouh ni ama koe khenhaw! na sannaw ni, athakaawme tami 50 touh ni na okhai han, pahren lahoi na bawipa tawng sak hanlah kamthaw sak. BAWIPA e a Muitha ni a luenkhai e patetlah mon dawk na ou, hoeh pawiteh tanghling dawk na ou bout a pabo yawkaw han doeh ati awh. Elisha ni apihai patoun hanh leih atipouh.
17 When they urged him until he was ashamed, he said, “Send them.” Therefore they sent fifty men; and they searched for three days, but did not find him.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni kayatho totouh a kâhei awh toteh, ti boum teh patoun lawih atipouh. Hat torei teh tami 50 touh a patoun awh. Hnin thum touh thung a tawng awh hat ei hmawt awh hoeh toe.
18 They came back to him while he stayed at Jericho; and he said to them, “Did not I tell you, ‘Do not go’?”
Jeriko kho ao navah, ahnimouh bout a tho torei teh ahnimouh koevah, cet hanh awh ka ti nahoehmaw atipouh.
19 The men of the city said to Elisha, “Behold, please, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the land is barren.”
Hote khonaw ni, Elisha koevah khenhaw! hete kho heh bawipa ni na hmu e patetlah phuneppoung e doeh. Hateiteh tui hawihoeh dawkvah camo koung a ro atipouh awh.
20 He said, “Bring me a new jar, and put salt in it.” Then they brought it to him.
Ahni ni tuium katha e na poe awh palawi theng awh ati pouh teh, a poe awh.
21 He went out to the spring of the waters, and threw salt into it, and said, “The LORD says, ‘I have healed these waters. There shall not be from there any more death or barren wasteland.’”
Tuiphuek koe a cei teh, hote hah a thung vah a phuen pouh teh BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Hete tui teh ka thoung sak toe. Atu hoi teh duenae hoi camo rawknae awm hoeh toe.
22 So the waters were healed to this day, according to Elisha’s word which he spoke.
Elisha ni a dei e patetlah atu totouh tui teh a thoung.
23 He went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up by the way, some youths came out of the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldy! Go up, you baldy!”
Hahoi teh Bethel lah a takhang. Hote lam a cei awh navah, nawsainaw a tho awh. Koe a panuikhai awh teh, lû luengpalueng e cet takhang haw. Lû luengpalueng e cet takhang haw atipouh awh.
24 He looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the LORD’s name. Then two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of those youths.
A kamlang sin teh, ahnimanaw a hmu toteh BAWIPA min lahoi thoe a bo. Kahrawngum hoi tavom manu ka hni touh a tâco teh, ahnimouh koe e camo 42 touh a kei pouh.
25 He went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
Hahoi teh Karmel mon lah a cei awh teh Samaria kho vah a ban awh.
