< 2 Kings 7 >
1 Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the LORD says: ‘About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel.’”
Elisha el topuk, “Lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk uh! Pacl se inge lutu, in acn Samaria kom ac ku in moli paun singoul ke wheat wowo ku paun longoul ke barley ke ipin silver sefanna.”
2 But the officer on whose arm the king leaned answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” “You will see it with your own eyes,” replied Elisha, “but you will not eat any of it.”
Mwet tutafpo fulat lun tokosra el fahk nu sel Elisha, “Ma ingan tia ku in sikyak, LEUM GOD El finne sifacna supwama wheat ingena!” Elisha el fahk, “Kom ac fah liye ke ma ingan ac sikyak, tusruktu kom ac tia ku in wi mongo kac.”
3 Now there were four men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate, and they said to one another, “Why just sit here until we die?
Mwet akosr su musen lepa, ac muta likin mutunpot nu Samaria, elos fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Mwe mea kut in mutana inse inge soan misa?
4 If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ we will die there from the famine in the city; but if we sit here, we will also die. So come now, let us go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they let us live, we will live; if they kill us, we will die.”
Wangin sripa kut in som nu in siti uh, mweyen kut ac tuh masrinsral ac misa we. Ac kut fin mutana inge kut ac misa pacna. Tari kut som nu yen mwet mweun Syria elos aktuktuk we. Sahp elos ac pakomutasr na kut ac moul, tuh elos fin tia, na kut ac nuna misa na.”
5 So they arose at twilight and went to the camp of the Arameans. But when they came to the outskirts of the camp, there was not a man to be found.
Ouinge ke mutawauk in lohsrani, elos som nu nien aktuktuk lun mwet Syria ah, tusruktu ke elos sun acn we tia mwet se we.
6 For the Lord had caused the Arameans to hear the sound of chariots, horses, and a great army, so that they said to one another, “Look, the king of Israel must have hired the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to attack us.”
LEUM GOD El tuh oru mwet Syria elos lohng pusra se ma oana pusren un mwet mweun puspis wi horse ac chariot, na mwet Syria elos nunku mu tokosra Israel el moli su sin mwet mweun lun tokosra Hit ac tokosra Egypt in mweunelos.
7 Thus the Arameans had arisen and fled at twilight, abandoning their tents and horses and donkeys. The camp was intact, and they had run for their lives.
Na ke ekela, mwet Syria elos tuh kaingla in suk moul lalos, ac sisla lohm nuknuk selos oayapa horse ac donkey natulos, ac som liki nien aktuktuk lalos, ac ma nukewa oanna yen oan we.
8 When the lepers reached the edge of the camp, they went into a tent to eat and drink. Then they carried off the silver, gold, and clothing, and went and hid them. On returning, they entered another tent, carried off some items from there, and hid them.
Ke mwet akosr ah sun sisken nien aktuktuk sac elos utyak nu in sie lohm nuknuk, kangla ac numla ma oan we, ac srukak silver, gold ac nuknuk ma elos konauk we, ac usla okanla. Na elos sifilpa folokyak nu in sie pac lohm nuknuk, ac oru oapana ma elos oru meet ah.
9 Finally, they said to one another, “We are not doing what is right. Today is a day of good news. If we are silent and wait until morning light, our sin will overtake us. Now, therefore, let us go and tell the king’s household.”
Na elos asmakla ac fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Tia wo kut in oru ouinge! Oasr pweng wo sesr, ac tia wo kut in okanla. Kut fin soano in lenelik na kut fah fahkak, kalem lah ac kalyeiyuk kut. Kut som ingena ac fahkak nu sin mwet fulat lun tokosra!”
10 So they went and called out to the gatekeepers of the city, saying, “We went to the Aramean camp and no one was there—not a trace—only tethered horses and donkeys, and the tents were intact.”
Ouinge elos som liki nien aktuktuk lun mwet Syria, folokla nu Samaria ac pangyak nu sin mwet topang ke mutunpot, ac fahk, “Kut som nu ke nien aktuktuk lun mwet Syria tuh na wangin mwet kut liye we ac wangin pac pusren mwet kut lohng. Horse ac donkey ah tia pac tuleyukla, ac lohm nuknuk ah oanna oana ke mwet Syria som liki ah.”
11 The gatekeepers shouted the news, and it was reported to the king’s household.
Mwet topang uh fahkak pweng sac, na srumunyukelik inkul sin tokosra.
12 So the king got up in the night and said to his servants, “Let me tell you what the Arameans have done to us. They know we are starving, so they have left the camp to hide in the field, thinking, ‘When they come out of the city, we will take them alive and enter the city.’”
Srakna fong, a tokosra el tukakek liki motul lal ac fahk nu sin mwet pwapa lal, “Ngan fahk nu suwos lah mea se mwet Syria elos ako in oru inge. Elos etu ke sracl se yenu inge, pa elos som liki acn elos mutangan aktuktuk we ac wikla insak uten acn uh. Elos nunku mu kut ac som liki siti uh in sukok mwe mongo, na elos ac sapmoulikuti ac eisla siti uh.”
13 But one of his servants replied, “Please, have scouts take five of the horses that remain in the city. Their plight will be no worse than all the Israelites who are left here. You can see that all the Israelites here are doomed. So let us send them and find out.”
Sie sin mwet pwapa lal ah fahk, “Mwet in siti se inge ac nuna misa pacna, oana mwet ma misa tari. Ke ma inge kut supwala kutu mwet uh wi horse limekosr sin horse ma lula uh kut in mau ku in konauk lah mea sikyak.”
14 Then the scouts took two chariots with horses, and the king sent them after the Aramean army, saying, “Go and see.”
Elos sulela mwet ekasr, ac tokosra el supwala mwet inge fin chariot lukwa, ac sang kas nu selos mu elos in som suk lah mea sikyak nu sin mwet mweun Syria ah.
15 And they tracked them as far as the Jordan, and indeed, the whole way was littered with the clothing and equipment the Arameans had thrown off in haste. So the scouts returned and told the king.
Mwet inge som na nwe sun Infacl Jordan, ac elos liye na nuknuk ac kufwen orekma ma mwet Syria elos sisla inkanek ah ke elos kaing. Na elos folokla ac fahkak ma inge nu sin tokosra.
16 Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Arameans. It was then that a seah of fine flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
Mwet Samaria elos yuyak ac orani ma wap ke nien aktuktuk lun mwet Syria. Na oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh fahk, paun in wheat wowo singoul ku paun in barley longoul kukakinyukla ke ipin silver sefanna.
17 Now the king had appointed the officer on whose arm he leaned to be in charge of the gate, but the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died, just as the man of God had foretold when the king had come to him.
Sikyak tuh na tokosra lun Israel el sang taranyen mutunpot lun siti uh nu ye kolyuk lun mwet tutafpo fulat se lal ah. Na mwet sac tuh lolongyuki sin mwet uh, ac el misa ke mutunpot ah, oana ke Elisha el palye ac fahk ke pacl se tokosra el tuh som nu yorol.
18 It happened just as the man of God had told the king: “About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel.”
Elisha el tuh fahk nu sin tokosra lah in pacl sacna ke len se tok ah, paun singoul ke wheat wowo ku paun longoul ke barley ac fah kukala ke ipin silver sefanna in Samaria,
19 And the officer had answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” So Elisha had replied, “You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it!”
na ke Elisha el tuh fahk ouinge, leum sac tuh fahk, “Ma ingan tia ku in sikyak, LEUM GOD El finne sifacna supwama wheat ingena!” Ac Elisha el tuh topuk mu, “Kom ac fah liye ke ma ingan ac sikyak, tusruktu kom ac tia ku in wi mongo kac.”
20 And that is just what happened to him. The people trampled him in the gateway, and he died.
Na pa ingan ma sikyak nu sel — lolongyuki el nwe ke el misa ke mutunpot nu in siti ah.
