< 2 Kings 2 >

1 Now it happened that, when the Lord willed to lift up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were going out of Gilgal.
Pakaiyin Elijah chu chimpei mangchan vanna alahtou ding kuon in Elijah leh Elisha chu Gilgal la kon’in ahung kijot lhonnin ahi.
2 And Elijah said to Elisha: “Remain here. For the Lord has sent me as far as Bethel.” And Elisha said to him, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not forsake you.” And when they had descended to Bethel,
Elijah in Elisha kom’ah “Nangma hiche mun a hin ana umtan, Pakaiyin keima Bethel chengeija cheding in eiseije,” ati. Ahin Elisha’n adonbut in, “Hing jing Pakai leh nangma hinlai sen, Keiman nangma kadalha louhel ding ahi!” ati. Hiti chun amani Bethel kho ah akijot lut lhon tai.
3 the sons of the prophets, who were at Bethel, went out to Elisha. And they said to him, “Do you not know that today the Lord will take away your lord from you?” And he responded: “I know it. Be silent.”
Themgao kiloikhom phabep ho chu Bethel’a konin Elisha kom’ah ahungun hitin anadong tauve, “Tunia hi Pakaiyin napupa hi nanga kona alahtouding ahitai ti nahet hinam?” atiuve. Elishain adonbutin, “Kahenai, ahin, hiche thua hin thip beh’in um uvin,” atin ahi.
4 Then Elijah said to Elisha: “Remain here. For the Lord has sent me to Jericho.” And he said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not forsake you.” And when they had arrived at Jericho,
Chujouvin Elijah in Elisha kom’ah, “Nangma hikom’a hin ana umtan keima vang Pakaiyin Jericho chan che dingin eideije,” ati. Ahin Elisha’n adonbutin kitin, “Hinjing Pakai leh nangma na hinjing laisen keiman nadalha ponge” ati. Hiti chun Jericho geijin achekhom kit lhontai.
5 the sons of the prophets, who were at Jericho, drew near to Elisha. And they said to him, “Do you not know that today the Lord will take away your lord from you?” And he said: “I know it. Be silent.”
Hijou chun Jerichoa konin themgao phabep Elisha kom’ah ahung un, “Pakaiyin napupa hi nanga kona tuni nikhoa hi alah mangding ahitai ti nahet nam?” atiuve. Elisha’n adonbut in “Kahenai, ahin thipbeh in ummun,” atin ahi.
6 Then Elijah said to him: “Remain here. For the Lord has sent me as far as the Jordan.” And he said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not forsake you.” And so, the two of them continued on together.
Hijeh chun, Elijah in Elisha kom’ah aseijin “Hichea hin ana umtan ajeh chu keihi Pakaiyin Jordan Vadung geija che dingin aseije,” ati. Ahin Elisha’n adonbut in, “Hinjing Pakai leh nangma nahinjing laisen, Keiman nangma dalha ponge” ati. Hiti chun amani akijot kit lhon tan ahi.
7 And fifty men from the sons of the prophets followed them, and they stood opposite them, at a distance. But the two of them were standing above the Jordan.
Themgao honho lah’a konin mi som nga acheuvin Elijah leh Elisha Jordan vadung changei akijot lhon chu agal vet un ahi.
8 And Elijah took his cloak, and he rolled it up, and he struck the waters, which were divided into two parts. And they both went across on dry ground.
Hichun Elijah in aponsil chu ajel tumin twi chung chu ajep a ahileh, vadung chu ahung kikhen in, anilhon chun agalkai lhon tan ahi.
9 And when they had gone across, Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask what you wish that I may do for you, before I am taken from you.” And Elisha said, “I beg you, that twice your spirit may be accomplished in me.”
Amani agalkai lhonphat’in Elijah in Elisha kom’ah, “Keima lahtouva kaum kah’in ipi kabolpeh theiding um am seijin,” ati. Chuin, Elisha’n adonbut in, “Nangma thalheng kahi thei na dingin nalhagao chan hi ajatnin neichan sah in,” ati.
10 And he responded: “You have requested a difficult thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, you will have what you requested. But if you do not see, it shall not be.”
Elijah in adonbut in, “Nathil thum hi thil hahsatah khat nathum ahi, ahin nangin keima hi nanga kona lahtouva kaum neimua ahileh nathum chu namu ding ahi,” atipeh in ahi.
11 And as they continued on, they were conversing while walking. And behold, a fiery chariot with fiery horses divided the two. And Elijah ascended by a whirlwind into heaven.
Hitia chu amani kihoulim puma akijotpet lhon chun, pohphungin sakol kangtalai meikong pum in ahung kilah in, meikong lomlah’a chun sakol in ahin kaijin ahi. Amani kikah a chun atol lut in, amani chu asep khen lhon in, Elijah chu chimpaijin van langa apuitou tan ahi.
12 Then Elisha saw it, and he cried out: “My father, my father! The chariot of Israel with its driver!” And he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own garments, and he tore them into two parts.
Elisha’n hichu amun apengjah jengin, “Hepa! Hepa! Keiman Israelte sakol kangtalai leh sakol kangtalai tol ho kamun ahi,” ati. Chuin Elijah chu lahtouva aum a, Elisha akoma kona amuphah lou phat in Elisha’n lungkham tah in apon chu abot-tel in ahi.
13 And he picked up the cloak of Elijah, which had fallen from him. And turning back, he stood above the bank of the Jordan.
Elijah lahtouva aum phat’in, ahung lenglha Elijah poncho chu Elijah in akilah tan ahi. Hijouchun Elisha chu Jordan vadung panga chun ahung kiletan ahi.
14 And he struck the waters with the cloak of Elijah, which had fallen from him, and they were not divided. And he said, “Where is the God of Elijah, even now?” And he struck the waters, and they were divided here and there. And Elisha went across.
Aman vadung twi chu Elijah ponchol chun ajep in hitin asamtan ahi, “Elijah Pathen Pakai chu hoiya umma ham?” ati. Hichun vadung chu akikhen in Elisha agalkai tai.
15 Then the sons of the prophets, who were at Jericho, watching from a distance, said, “The spirit of Elijah has rested upon Elisha.” And approaching to meet him, they reverenced him prone on the ground.
Jericho a kona themgao kiloikhom ho chu Jericho a konin thilsoh chu agalmu uvin, hiti hin asam tauvin ahi, “Elijah lhagao chu Elisha chunga achutai,” atiuve. Amaho chu ama kimupi dingin acheuvin amasanga tol’ah abohkhup un,
16 And they said to him, “Behold, with your servants there are fifty strong men, who are able to go forth and to seek your lord. For perhaps, the Spirit of the Lord has taken him up and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley.” But he said, “Do not send them.”
“Hepu – nangin thu neipe uvin lang keiho lah a ahatcheh mi somnga in gam mang lah’a hi napupa hol uvinge. Ijem atileh Pakai lhagaovin molchung ham, phaicham chungham, khatna adalhah maithei ahi.” atiuve. Elisha’n adonbut in, “Ahipoi, sol hih in,” ati.
17 And they urged him, until he acquiesced and said, “Send them.” And they sent fifty men. And after they had searched for three days, they did not find him.
Ahinlah amahon aseitei tei jingun ahileh, aman anil nomlou phat in, “Aphai sol tauvin,” ati. Hichun mi somnga in nithum lhingset ahol un amupouvin ahi.
18 And they returned to him, for he was living in Jericho. And he said to them: “Did I not say to you, ‘Do not send them?’”
Elisha chu amaho hung kilekit geijin Jericho a ana um nalaijin ahi. “Che hih un kati hilou ham?” ati.
19 Also, the men of the city said to Elisha: “Behold, this city is a very good habitation, as you yourself perceive, O lord. But the waters are very bad, and the ground is barren.”
Nikhat hi Jericho khopia lamkai hon Elisha chu ahung kimupiuvin, “Keihon boina khat kaneijuve, Hepu!” ahung tiuve, “Nangin namu bangin hiche khopi nomtah le hoitah ahi. Ahinla twi ahah in chuleh agam leiset a jong hin ima aputpon ahi,” ahung tiuvin ahi.
20 And so he said, “Bring a new vessel to me, and place salt in it.” And when they had brought it,
Elisha’n amaho kom’ah, khonthah khatna chi hinchoujun ati. Hichun amahon jong ahinchoijun ahi.
21 he went out to the source of the waters, and he cast the salt into it. And he said: “Thus says the Lord: I have healed these waters, and no longer shall there be death or barrenness in them.”
Hijou chun, aman hiche khopi sunga twi hunglonlut patna twinah'a chun chi aga seplut in hitin asei tai, “Pakaiyin hitin aseje, keiman hiche twihi kasutheng tai, hichea kon hin thi nale ga phalou um talou ding ahi,” ati.
22 Then the waters were healed, even to this day, in accord with the word of Elisha, which he spoke.
Hiti chun Elisha’n aseibang in hiche nikhoa pat chun twi chu atheng jengtan ahi.
23 Then he went up from there into Bethel. And as he was ascending along the way, little boys departed from the city. And they were mocking him, saying: “Go up, bald head! Go up, bald head!”
Elisha’n Jericho chu adalhan Bethel lam ajontan ahi. Hitia chu lamlen na achepet jing lai chun, hiche khopi sunga kona chapang phabep in atot khum’un noise tah in, “Lutolpa chedoh in, Lutolpa chedoh in atiuvin,” ahi.
24 And when he had looked back, he saw them, and he cursed them in the name of the Lord. And two bears went out from the forest, and they wounded forty-two boys among them.
Elisha akiheijin amaho chu aven Pakai minnin asamse tan ahi. Hichun gam’ahng lah’a konin Vompi ni ahung potdoh'in chapang somli le ni chu abot tellin athat gamtan ahi.
25 Then he went away from there to mount Carmel. And he returned from there into Samaria.
Hichea kon chun Elisha chu Carmel lhang lam chu ajonnin khonungin Samaria langa akile in ahi.
