< 2 Kings 4 >
1 Now a certain woman, from the wives of the prophets, cried out to Elisha, saying: “My husband, your servant, is dead. And you know that your servant was one who fears the Lord. And behold, a creditor has arrived, so that he may take away my two sons to serve him.”
Profet capa a yunaw thung dawk hoi napui buet touh ni, Elisha koe na san e a vâ teh a due toe. Na san ni teh, BAWIPA a taki tie hai na panue. Laiba ka ba pouh e tami niyah, ka ca roi heh san lah hrawi hane a tho toe telah runae kong hah a dei pouh.
2 And Elisha said to her: “What do you want me to do for you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” And she responded, “I, your handmaid, do not have anything in my house, except a little oil, with which I may be anointed.”
Elisha ni napui koevah, bangmaw na sak pouh han. Im vah bangmaw na tawn, na dei pouh haw, telah atipouh. Napui ni, satuium buet touh hloilah teh banghai im dawk ka tawn e awm hoeh atipouh.
3 And he said to her: “Go, ask to borrow from all your neighbors empty vessels, more than a few.
Ahni ni cet nateh na imrinaw e hlaam a tawn e hlai loe atipouh.
4 And enter and close your door. And when you are inside with your sons, pour from the oil into all those vessels. And when they are full, take them away.”
Hahoi kâen awh nateh, nang nama hoi na capanaw hoi imthung vah tho kâkhan awh nateh, hlaamnaw pueng dawk satui hah hlun awh nateh kakawi e naw pueng teh alouklah tat awh atipouh.
5 And so, the woman went and closed the door upon herself and her sons. They were bringing her the vessels, and she was pouring into them.
Ahni koehoi a cei teh, ama hoi a capanaw hoi im tho a kâkhan awh teh, hlaam a dâw pouh teh, ahnimouh ni a hlun awh.
6 And when the vessels had been filled, she said to her son, “Bring me another a vessel.” And he responded, “I have none.” And there was oil remaining.
Hlaam akawi hoi a capa koe, Hlaam na poe ei atipouh. Ahni ni hlaam awm hoeh toe ati hoi teh satui roup a hak.
7 Then she went and told the man of God. And he said: “Go, sell the oil, and repay your creditor. Then you and your sons may live on what remains.”
Hahoi teh Cathut tami ni cet awh lawih, satui hah yawt awh nateh na laiba teh patho lawih. Ka cawi e teh na canaw hoi na khosak na koe hno awh lawih telah atipouh.
8 Now it happened that, on a certain day, Elisha passed by Shunem. And there was a great woman there, who took him to eat bread. And since he frequently passed by there, he turned aside to her house, so that he might eat bread.
Hnin touh teh, ELisha hah Shunem kho a cei. Hawvah ka tawnta e napui ao teh, hote napui ni bu a kaw khai. Hottelah a cei nah tangkuem haw vah bu ca hanlah ouk a luen pouh.
9 And she said to her husband: “I have noticed that he is a holy man of God, who passes by us frequently.
Napui ni a vâ koevah khenhaw! maimouh roi pou na ka pâtam e heh Cathut e tami kathoung doeh tie ka panue.
10 Therefore, let us prepare a small upper room for him, and place a bed in it for him, and a table, and a chair, and a lampstand, so that when he comes to us, he may stay there.”
Tho haw, im van kathoungcalah, sak pouh haw sei, ikhun caboi, tungkhung hoi hmaiimkhok hrueng pouh haw sei, hahoi teh maimouh koe a tho karoitawi a kâen, a luen nahanlah atipouh.
11 Then it happened that, on a certain day, arriving, he turned aside into the upper room, and he rested there.
Hnin touh hnin teh bout a cei teh, im a sak pouh e dawkvah a roe.
12 And he said to his servant Gehazi, “Call this Shunammite woman.” And when he had called her, and she stood before him,
Hahoi a san Gehazi koe hete Shunam napui heh kaw haw atipouh. A kaw teh a hmalah a kangdue sak.
13 he said to his servant: “Say to her: Behold, you have ministered to us attentively in all things. What do you want, that I might do for you? Do you have any business, or do you want me to speak to the king, or to the leader of the military?” And she responded, “I live in the midst of my own people.”
Elisha ni nang ni na khetyawt, nang hanlah bangmaw na sak pouh han, siangpahrang thoseh, ransabawi thoseh, na pato pouh hanelah na ngai maw telah napui koe a dei pouh. Napui ni ka hmaunawngha hoi miphunnaw koe doeh kho ka sak atipouh.
14 And he said, “Then what does she want, that I might do for her?” And Gehazi said: “You need not ask. For she has no son, and her husband is elderly.”
Elisha ni, bangmaw kai ni na sak pouh han vai atipouh. Gehazi ni, atangcalah tetpawiteh, a capa tawn roi hoeh ni teh a vâ haiyah a matawng toe atipouh.
15 And so, he instructed him to call her. And when she had been called, and was standing before the door,
Ahni ni napui kaw haw, atipouh, a kaw teh napui teh takhang koe a kangdue.
16 he said to her, “At this time, and at this same hour, with life as a companion, you will have a son in your womb.” But she responded, “Do not, I ask you, my lord, a man of God, do not be willing to lie to your handmaid.”
Elisha ni atu e tuektue a pha toteh ca tongpa na tawm han atipouh. Napui ni telah nahoeh ka bawipa, nang Cathut e tami na sannu koe laithoe dei hanh atipouh.
17 And the woman conceived. And she bore a son, in the time and at the same hour as Elisha had said.
Hahoi napui teh camo a vawn. Elisha ni ahni koe a dei e patetlah hote tue nah camo a khe.
18 And the boy grew. And on a certain day, when he had gone out to his father, to the harvesters,
Camo teh a roung teh hnin touh teh a na pa canganae koe a cei van.
19 he said to his father: “I have a pain in my head. I have a pain in my head.” But he said to his servant, “Take him, and lead him to his mother.”
Hahoi teh a na pa koe ka lû a pataw, ka lû a pataw, telah a dei pouh. A sanpa koevah a manu koe cetkhai haw atipouh.
20 But when he had taken him, and he had led him to his mother, she placed him upon her knees, until midday, and then he died.
A ceikhai teh a manu koe a phakhai toteh a phai dawk kanîthun totouh a tahung teh oun a due.
21 Then she went up and laid him out on the bed of the man of God, and she closed the door. And departing,
Napui ni im van a luenkhai teh Cathut tami e ikhun dawk a payan. Tho khik a khan teh a tâco takhai.
22 she called her husband, and she said: “Send with me, I beg you, one of your servants, and a donkey, so that I may hurry to the man of God, and then return.”
A vâ hah a kaw teh, pahren lahoi na san hoi la buet touh na rakueng pouh haw, Cathut e tami koe ka yawng vaiteh, bout ka ban han atipouh.
23 And he said to her: “What is the reason that you would go to him? Today is not the new moon, and it is not the Sabbath.” She responded, “I will go.”
A vâ ni, bangkongmaw sahnin kuekluek ahni koe cei han na kâcai. Thapa hai rei hoeh rah, sabbath hnin lah hai tho hoeh atipouh toteh, napui ni telah ma, ahawi doeh atipouh.
24 And she saddled a donkey, and she instructed her servant: “Drive, and hurry on. You shall cause no delay for me in departing. And do whatever I instruct you to do.”
La e a hnukthun a padoun pouh teh, a sanpa koe yawng sak haw, pou cetsak lawih. Kâ na poe hoehroukrak hnawng sak hanh loe atipouh.
25 And so she set out. And she came to the man of God, on mount Carmel. And when the man of God had seen her at a distance, he said to his servant Gehazi: “Behold, it is that Shunammite woman.
A cei teh, Cathut e tami koe Karmel mon vah a cei. Cathut e tami ni ahla poungnae koehoi a hmu nah, a sanpa Gehazi koevah, khenhaw! hot teh Shunam napui doeh khe.
26 So then, go to meet her, and say to her, ‘Does all go well concerning you, and your husband, and your son?’” And she answered, “It is well.”
Ahni dawn hanelah, yawng nateh ahni koevah na dam maw, na vâ a dam maw, camo hah a dam maw telah tet pouh. Napui ni ka dam doeh atipouh.
27 And when she had arrived at the man of God, on the mount, she took hold of his feet. And Gehazi drew near, so that he might remove her. But the man of God said: “Permit her. For her soul is in bitterness. And the Lord has concealed it from me, and has not revealed it to me.”
Hahoi mon vah Cathut e tami koe a pha toteh, a khok a tapam pouh teh, ahni ngang hanelah, Gehazi teh a tho. Hatei Cathut tami ni ngang hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungreithai dawk doeh atipouh. BAWIPA ni kai koe a hro rah na dei pouh hoeh rae doeh telah atipouh.
28 And she said to him: “Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say to you, ‘You should not deceive me?’”
Napui ni, ka bawipa, capa hah kai ni kahei maw Na dum han loe ka ti nahoehmaw telah atipouh.
29 And so he said to Gehazi: “Gird your waist, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If any man will meet you, you shall not greet him. And if anyone greets you, you shall not respond to him. And place my staff upon the face of the boy.”
Ahni ni, Gehazi koevah, na hni na keng dawk yeng leih. Na sonron heh sin nateh cet, na kâhmo e naw pueng a kut man hanh. Ayâ ni na kut ka man nakunghai man hanh. Kaie ka sonron heh camo e minhmai van toung pouh loe atipouh.
30 But the mother of the boy said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not release you.” Therefore, he rose up, and he followed her.
Camo manu ni, BAWIPA hoi nang na hring e patetlah kai ni na tha roeroe mahoeh. Hahoi a thaw teh a kâbang.
31 But Gehazi had gone before them, and he had placed the staff upon the face of the boy. And there was no voice, nor any response. And so he returned to meet him. And he reported to him, saying, “The boy did not rise up.”
Gehazi ni, hmalah pou a yawngtahrei teh, sonron teh camo e minhmai dawk a toung pouh. Hatei camo teh kâroe hoeh a lawk tho hoeh. Hahoi teh ama kâhmo hanlah bout a ban teh. Ama koe camo teh kâhlaw hoeh atipouh.
32 Therefore, Elisha entered the house. And behold, the boy was lying dead upon his bed.
ELisha teh im a kâen navah, khenhaw! camo teh yo a due dawkvah, ikhun dawkvah a payan roi.
33 And entering, he closed the door upon himself and the boy. And he prayed to the Lord.
Hatdawkvah a kâen teh tho rouk a khan. BAWIPA koevah a ratoum.
34 And he climbed up, and lay across the boy. And he put his mouth over his mouth, and his eyes over his eyes, and his hands over his hands. And he leaned himself over him, and the body of the boy grew warm.
Im van a luen teh camo e van vah a tabo. Apâhni hoi a pahni a mit hoi mit, a kut hoi kut a ta sin teh, a tabo sin. Hottelah hoi camo e tak teh phubet hruethruet ao.
35 And returning, he walked around the house, first here and then there. And he went up, and lay across him. And the boy gasped seven times, and he opened his eyes.
A kum teh imvan vah a kâhlai, bout a luen teh, a van rek a tabo sin, hahoi camo teh vai sari touh a ekthi teh a mit a padai.
36 And he called Gehazi, and said to him, “Call this Shunammite woman.” And having been called, she entered to him. And he said, “Take up your son.”
Gehazi a kaw teh, Shunam napui kaw haw atipouh. A kaw teh ahni koe a pha awh toteh, na capa tawm haw atipouh.
37 She went and fell at his feet, and she reverenced upon the ground. And she took up her son, and departed.
Hahoi imthung a kâen teh a khok koe a tabo pouh. A capa teh a tawm teh a tâcokhai.
38 And Elisha returned to Gilgal. Now there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets were living in his sight. And he said to one of his servants, “Set out a large cooking pot, and boil a soup for the sons of the prophets.”
Elisha teh Gilgal vah a ban teh, a ram dawk takang a tho. Hahoi profet capanaw a hmalah a tahung teh, a sanpa koevah hlaam kalen pui dawkvah, profet capanaw hane anhang dam pouh loe atipouh.
39 And one went out into the field, so that he might collect wild herbs. And he found something like a wild vine, and he gathered from it bitter fruits of the field, and he filled his cloak. And returning, he cut these up for the pot of soup. But he did not know what it was.
Hahoi tami buet touh kahrawng lah a tawng teh kahrawng tangdun hah a hmu teh, kahrawng tuium pawnaw hah a khi teh be a bawng hnukkhu, a thawng e dawk a thum. Bangnama aw ti teh panuek hoeh.
40 Then they poured it out for their companions to eat. And when they had tasted the mixture, they cried out, saying, “Death is in the cooking pot, O man of God!” And they were unable to eat.
Hahoi a ca hanlah a so teh, hote anhang a pahra navah Aiyoe! oe Cathut tami hlaam dawk duenae ao atipouh teh, cat thai awh hoeh.
41 But he said, “Bring some flour.” And when they had brought it, he cast it into the cooking pot, and he said, “Pour it out for the group, so that they may eat.” And there was no longer any bitterness in the cooking pot.
Ahni ni, vaiyei na poe awh haw atipouh. Hlaam dawk a thum pouh teh hetnaw heh ca hanelah so haw, atipouh. Hahoi teh hlaam dawk banghai takinae awm hoeh toe.
42 Now a certain man arrived from Baal-Shalishah, carrying, for the man of God, bread from the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and new grain in his satchel. But he said, “Give it to the people, so that they may eat.”
Baalshalisha koe lahoi tami buet touh a tho teh, Cathut e tami hanlah cang aluepaw hoi yei e vaiyei, 20 touh hoi apawhiknaw hai cawngko dawk hoi a sin pouh. Elisha ni hete taminaw paca loe atipouh.
43 And his servant responded to him, “What amount is this, that I should set it before a hundred men?” But he said again: “Give it to the people, so that they may eat. For thus says the Lord, ‘They shall eat, and there shall be still more.’”
Hatei a sannaw ni, bangtelane, hete tami 100 touh hmalah ka tâcokhai han na maw atipouh. Oe hetnaw a ca hanelah poe loe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni telah a dei. Cat awh vaiteh puk a cawi han atipouh.
44 And so, he set it before them. And they ate, and there was still more, in accord with the word of the Lord.
Hahoi teh a paawng awh teh a ca awh. BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah pukcawi pouh.
