Kings IV 7
1 And Elisaie said, Hear you the word of the Lord; Thus says the Lord, As at this time, to-morrow a measure of fine flour [shall be sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gates of Samaria.
Fa hoy kosa Elisa: Mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah ianareo: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Rahampitso toy izao dia ho sekely iray ny vidin’ ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana, ary ho sekely iray koa ny vidin’ ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana ao am-bavahadin’ i Samaria.
2 And the officer on whose hand the king rested, answered Elisaie, and said, Behold, [if] the Lord shall make flood-gates in heaven, might this thing be? and Elisaie said, Behold, you shall see with your eyes, but shall not eat thereof.
Fa namaly ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ilay mpanafika malaza izay nitehenan’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny tànany ka nanao hoe: Indro, na dia hanao varavarankely amin’ ny lanitra aza Jehovah, dia hisy izany zavatra izany va? Ary hoy Elisa: Indro, ho hitan’ ny masonao indrindra izany, nefa tsy mba hihinananao.
3 And there were four leprous men by the gate of the city: and one said to his neighbour, Why sit we here until we die?
Ary nisy boka efa-dahy teo anoloan’ ny vavahady nifampiresaka hoe: Ahoana no ipetrahantsika foana eto mandra-pahafatintsika?
4 If we should say, Let us go into the city, then [there is] famine in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit here, then we shall die. Now then come, and let us fall upon the camp of the Syrians: if they should take us alive, then we shall live; and if they should put us to death, then we shall [only] die.
Raha hoy isika: Hankato an-tanàna isika, dia misy mosary ao an-tanàna, ka ho faty ao isika; ary raha hipetraka eto isika, dia ho faty ihany koa. Koa andeha isika hankany amin-ny tobin’ ny Syriana; ka raha mamelona antsika moa izy, dia ho velona isika; fa raha mamono antsika kosa izy, dia ho faty ihany isika.
5 And they rose up while it was yet night, to go into the camp of Syria; and they came into a part of the camp of Syria, and behold, there [was] no man there.
Dia niainga izy rehefa takariva hankany amin’ ny tobin’ ny Syriana; ary nony tonga teny an-tsisin’ ny toby izy, indro, tsy nisy olona akory tao.
6 For the Lord had made the army of Syria to hear a sound of chariots, and a sound of horses, [even] the sound of a great host: and [each] man said to his fellow, Now has the king of Israel hired against us the kings of the Chettites, and the kings of Egypt, to come against us.
Fa Jehovah efa nampandre ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana ny fikodiadian-kalesy sy ny fandehan’ ny soavaly, dia ny firodondrodon’ ny miaramila be; ary niresaka hoe izy: Injao, fa ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely efa nanamby ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Egyptiana hiady amintsika.
7 And they arose and fled while it was yet dark, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses in the camp, as they were, and fled for their lives.
Dia niainga izy ka riatra nandositra tamin’ iny takariva iny ihany, ary nilaozany fotsiny ny tobiny, dia ny lainy sy ny soavaliny ary ny borikiny, ka lasa nandositra hamonjy ny ainy izy.
8 And these lepers entered a little way into the camp, and went into one tent, and ate and drank, and took thence silver, and gold, and raiment; and they went and returned thence, and entered into another tent, and took thence, and went and hid [the spoil].
Ary rehefa tonga teny an-tsisin’ ny toby ireo boka ireo, dia niditra tao amin’ ny lay anankiray Izy ka nihinana sy nisotro, dia naka volafotsy sy volamena ary fitafiana, dia nandeha ka nanafina izany; ary nandeha indray izy ka niditra tao amin’ ny lay anankiray koa sady naka avy tao, dia nandeha ka nanafina izany koa.
9 And [one] man said to his neighbour, We are not doing [well] thus: this day is a day of glad tidings, and we hold our peace, and are waiting till the morning light, and shall find mischief: now them come, and let us go into [the city], and report to the house of the king.
Dia nifampilaza hoe izy: Tsy mety izao ataontsika izao; ity andro ity dia andro filazana ny mahafaly, nefa mangìna isika; raha hitoetra eto mandra-pahamarain’ ny andro isika, dia hanan-keloka; fa andeha isika hilaza ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
10 So they went and cried towards the gate of the city, and reported to them, saying, We went into the camp of Syria, and, behold, there is not there a man, nor voice of man, only horses tied and asses, and their tents as they were.
Dia avy izy ka niantso ny mpiambina ny vavahadin-tanàna ary nilaza taminy hoe: Tonga tany an-tobin’ ny Syriana izahay, ary indro fa tsy misy olona ao, na feon’ olona akory aza, fa soavaly mifatotra sy boriky mifatotra, ary ny lay nilaozana fotsiny.
11 And the porters cried aloud, and reported to the house of the king within.
Ary niantso ny mpiambina ny vavahady izy, ary ireo kosa nilaza izany tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
12 And the king rose up by night, and said to his servants, I will now tell you what the Syrians have done to us. They knew that we are hungry; and they have gone forth from the camp and hidden themselves in the field, saying, They will come out of the city, and we shall catch them alive, and go into the city.
Ary ny mpanjaka nifoha raha mbola alina ka niteny tamin’ ny mpanompony hoe: Aoka hambarako aminareo ange izao ataon’ ny Syriana amintsika izao e! Fantany fa mosarena isika, ka dia niala tamin’ ny toby izy mba hanotrika any an-tsaha ka nanao hoe: Raha mivoaka avy any an-tanàna izy dia hataontsika sambo-belona, ary dia hidirantsika ny tanàna.
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let them now take five of the horses that were left, which were left here; behold, they are the number left to all the multitude of Israel; and we will send there and see.
Ary ny mpanompony anankiray namaly hoe: Mifona aminao aho, aoka hangalana soavaly dimy amin’ izay sisa ato an-tanàna (indro toy ny hamaroan’ ny Isiraely rehetra izay mitoetra ato ireo; eny, tahaka ny hamaroan’ ny Isiraely rehetra izay efa lany ritra ireo) ka haniraka hizaha izany.
14 So they took two horsemen; and the king of Israel sent after the king of Syria, saying, Go, and see.
Dia nalainy ny soavalin’ ny kalesy roa; ary ny mpanjaka naniraka hanaraka ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana ka nanao hoe: Mandehana, ka izahao.
15 And they went after them even to Jordan: and, behold, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their panic. and the messengers returned, and brought word to the king.
Dia nandeha nanaraka azy hatrany Jordana ireo; ary, indreny, ny lalambe rehetra feno fitafiana sy fanaka izay efa narian’ ny Syriana, raha nandositra tamin’ ny fahatairana izy. Ary ny iraka niverina ka nilaza tamin’ ny mpanjaka.
16 And the people went out, and plundered the camp of Syria: and a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord, and two measures of barley for a shekel.
Dia nivoaka ny olona ka namabo ny tobin’ ny Syriana. Koa ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana, dia sekely iray monja no vidiny, ary ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana, dia sekely iray ihany koa ny vidiny, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
17 And the king appointed the officer on whose hand the king leaned [to have charge] over the gate: and the people trampled on him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God [had] said, who spoke when the messenger came down to him.
Ary ilay mpanafika malaza izay nitehenan’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny tànany dia notendreny hiambina ny vavahady; ary voahitsaka teo am-bavahady izy, ka dia maty araka izay nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, dia ilay nolazainy, raha nidina tany aminy ny mpanjaka.
18 So it came to pass as Elisaie had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley [shall be sold] for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel; and it shall be as at this time to-morrow in the gate of Samaria.
Koa dia tanteraka ilay teny nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra tamin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Raha, maraina toy izao ao am-bavahadin’ i Samaria dia sekely iray monja no ho vidin’ ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana, ary ho sekely iray ihany koa ny vidin’ ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana;
19 And the officer answered Elisaie, and said, Behold, [if] the Lord makes flood-gates in heaven, shall this thing be? and Elisaie said, Behold, you shall see [it] with your eyes, but you shall not eat thereof.
ka izany mpanafika malaza izany no namaly ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra hoe: Indro, na dia hanao varavarankely amin’ ny lanitra aza Jehovah, dia hisy izany zavatra izany va? Fa hoy Elisa: Indro, ho hitan’ ny masonao indrindra izany, fa tsy mba hihinananao.
20 And it was so: for the people trampled on him in the gate, and he died.
Ary dia toy izany no nanjo azy, fa ny olona nanitsaka azy teo am-bavahady, ka dia maty izy.
