< 2 Kings 4 >

1 And a woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisha saying, Thy servant my husband is dead, and thou knowest that thy servant feared Jehovah; and the creditor is come to take my two children to be bondmen.
Ìyàwó ọkùnrin kan láti ara ẹgbẹ́ wòlíì sọkún tọ Eliṣa wá, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ọkọ mi ti kú, ó sì mọ̀ wí pé ó bu ọlá fún Olúwa. Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, onígbèsè rẹ̀ ti ń bọ̀ láti wá kó ọmọ ọkùnrin mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹrú rẹ̀.”
2 And Elisha said to her, What shall I do for thee? Tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thy handmaid has not anything at all in the house but a pot of oil.
Eliṣa dá a lóhùn pé, “Báwo ni èmi ṣe lè ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́? Sọ fún mi; kí ni ìwọ ní ní ilé rẹ?” Ó wí pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kò ní ohunkóhun níbẹ̀ rárá, àyàfi òróró kékeré.”
3 And he said, Go, borrow for thyself vessels abroad from all thy neighbours, empty vessels; let it not be few;
Eliṣa wí pé, “Lọ yíká kí o sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn aládùúgbò fún ìkòkò òfìfo. Má ṣe béèrè fún kékeré.
4 and go in, and shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and pour out into all those vessels, and set aside what is full.
Nígbà náà, lọ sí inú ilé kí o sì pa lẹ́kun dé ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ ọkùnrin, dà òróró sínú gbogbo ìkòkò, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo rẹ̀ ti kún, kó o sí apá kan.”
5 And she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons: they brought [the vessels] to her, and she poured out.
Ó sì fi sílẹ̀ lẹ́yìn náà ó ti ìlẹ̀kùn ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀. Wọ́n gbé ìkòkò wá fún un ó sì ń dà á.
6 And it came to pass when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said to her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
Nígbà tí gbogbo ìkòkò náà kún, ó sọ fún ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ gbé òmíràn fún mi wá.” Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Kò sí ìkòkò tí ó kù mọ́.” Nígbà náà ni òróró kò dà mọ́.
7 And she came and told the man of God; and he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou [and] thy sons on the rest.
Ó sì lọ ó sì lọ sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ó sì wí pé, “Lọ, ta òróró náà kí o sì san gbèsè rẹ. Ìwọ àti ọmọ rẹ kí ẹ máa sinmi lórí èyí tí ó kù.”
8 And it came to pass on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a wealthy woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, [that] as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
Ní ọjọ́ kan Eliṣa lọ sí Ṣunemu. Obìnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ kan sì wà níbẹ̀, ẹni tí ó rọ̀ ọ́ kí ó dúró jẹun. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nígbàkígbà tí ó bá ń kọjá lọ, ó máa ń dúró níbẹ̀ láti jẹun.
9 And she said to her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who passes by us continually.
Ó sọ fún ọkọ rẹ̀, “Mo mọ̀ pé ọkùnrin tí ó máa ń sábà wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ wa jẹ́ ọkùnrin mímọ́ Ọlọ́run.
10 Let us make, I pray thee, a small upper chamber with walls, and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a seat, and a lampstand; and it shall be when he cometh to us, he shall turn in thither.
Jẹ́ kí a ṣe yàrá kékeré kan sórí ilé kí a sì gbé ibùsùn àti tábìlì oúnjẹ, àga kan àti fìtílà fún un. Nígbà náà ó lè dúró níbẹ̀ ní ìgbàkúgbà tí ó bá wá sọ́dọ̀ wa.”
11 And it came to pass on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the upper chamber, and lay there.
Ní ọjọ́ kan nígbà tí Eliṣa wá, ó lọ sí orí òkè ní yàrá rẹ̀ ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ síbẹ̀.
12 And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And he called her, and she stood before him.
Ó sì wí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Gehasi pé, “Pe ará Ṣunemu.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì pè é wá, ó sì dúró níwájú rẹ̀.
13 And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she said, I dwell among mine own people.
Eliṣa wí fún un pé, “Wí fún un, ‘Ìwọ ti lọ ṣe gbogbo àníyàn iṣẹ́ ìyìnrere fún wa. Nísinsin yìí kí ni a lè ṣe fún ọ?’” “Ṣé a lè jẹ́ agbẹnusọ fún ọ ní ọ̀dọ̀ ọba tàbí olórí ogun?”
14 And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi said, Verily, she has no son, and her husband is old.
“Kí ni a lè ṣe fún obìnrin yìí?” Eliṣa béèrè. Gehasi wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, kò ní ọmọ, ọkọ rẹ̀ náà sì tún di arúgbó.”
15 And he said, Call her; and he called her; and she stood in the doorway.
Nígbà náà Eliṣa wí pé, “Pè é,” bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì pè é, ó sì dúró ní àbáwọlé ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
16 And he said, At this appointed time, when thy term is come, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, No, my lord, man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid.
Eliṣa sọ wí pé, “Ìwòyí ọdún tí ń bọ̀, ìwọ yóò fi ọwọ́ rẹ gbé ọmọ.” “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, olúwa mi!” n kò fi ara mọ́ ọn. “Jọ̀wọ́, ìwọ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ma ṣe ṣi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lọ́nà!”
17 And the woman conceived, and bore a son at that appointed time in the next year as Elisha had said to her.
Ṣùgbọ́n obìnrin náà lóyún ní ọdún kejì ní àkókò náà, ó bí ọmọ ọkùnrin kan, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Eliṣa ti sọ fún un.
18 And the child grew, and it came to pass one day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
Ọmọ náà dàgbà, ní ọjọ́ kan, ó jáde lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ baba rẹ̀, ó wà pẹ̀lú àwọn olùkórè.
19 And he said to his father, My head, my head! And he said to the servant, Carry him to his mother.
“Orí mi! Orí mi!” Ó wí fún baba rẹ̀. Baba rẹ̀ sọ fún ìránṣẹ́, “Gbé e lọ sọ́dọ̀ ìyá rẹ̀.”
20 And he carried him, and brought him to his mother; and he sat on her knees till noon, and died.
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ìránṣẹ́ náà ti gbé e sókè tí ó sì gbé e tọ ìyá rẹ̀ lọ, ọmọ ọkùnrin náà jókòó sórí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ títí ó fi di ọ̀sán gangan, nígbà náà ó sì kú.
21 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut [the door] upon him, and went out.
Ó lọ sí òkè ó sì tẹ́ ọmọ náà lórí ibùsùn ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ó sì tìlẹ̀kùn, ó jáde lọ.
22 And she called to her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, and I will run to the man of God, and come again.
Ó pe ọkọ rẹ̀ ó sì wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ rán ọ̀kan lára àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan kí èmi kí ó lè lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run kíákíá kí n sì padà.”
23 And he said, Why wilt thou go to him to-day? It is neither new moon nor sabbath. And she said, [It is] well.
“Kí ni ó dé tí o fi fẹ́ lọ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ lónìí?” Ó béèrè. “Kì í ṣe oṣù tuntun tàbí ọjọ́ ìsinmi.” Ó wí pé, “Gbogbo rẹ̀ ti dára.”
24 Then she saddled the ass, and said to her servant, Drive and go forward; slack not the riding for me, except I bid thee.
Ó sì di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì ó sì wí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Máa nìṣó; má ṣe dẹ́sẹ̀ dúró dè mí àyàfi tí mo bá sọ fún ọ.”
25 And she went and came to the man of God, to mount Carmel. And it came to pass when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, there is the Shunammite:
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì jáde wá, ó sì wá sọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ní orí òkè Karmeli. Nígbà tí ó sì rí i láti òkèrè, ènìyàn Ọlọ́run sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Gehasi, “Wò ó! Ará Ṣunemu nì!
26 run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she said, It is well.
Sáré lọ pàdé rẹ̀ kí o sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ‘Ṣé o wà dáradára? Ṣé ọkọ rẹ wà dáradára? Ṣé ọmọ rẹ wà dáradára?’” Ó wí pé, “Gbogbo nǹkan wà dáradára.”
27 And she came to the man of God to the mountain, and caught him by the feet; and Gehazi drew near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone, for her soul is troubled within her, and Jehovah has hidden it from me, and has not told me.
Nígbà tí ó dé ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ní orí òkè, ó gbá a ní ẹsẹ̀ mú. Gehasi wá láti wá lé e dànù, ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Fi í sílẹ̀! Ó wà nínú ìpọ́njú kíkorò, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa fi pamọ́ fún mi kò sì sọ ìdí rẹ̀ fún mi.”
28 And she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?
“Ṣé mo béèrè ọmọ lọ́wọ́ rẹ, olúwa mi?” Obìnrin náà wí pé, “Ṣé mi ò sọ fún ọ pé kí o, ‘Má ṣe fa ìrètí mi sókè’?”
29 And he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way. If thou meet any man, salute him not, and if any salute thee, answer him not again; and lay my staff upon the face of the lad.
Eliṣa wí fún Gehasi pé, “Ká agbádá rẹ sínú ọ̀já àmùrè, mú ọ̀pá mi sí ọwọ́ rẹ kí o sì sáré. Tí o bá pàdé ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe kí i, tí ẹnikẹ́ni bá kí ọ, má ṣe dá a lóhùn, fi ọ̀pá náà lé ojú ọmọ ọkùnrin náà.”
30 And the mother of the lad said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And he rose up and followed her.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìyá ọmọ náà wí pé, “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ láààyè àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti wà láààyè, èmi kò ní í fi ọ́ sílẹ̀.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì dìde ó sì tẹ̀lé e.
31 And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the lad; but there was neither voice, nor sign of attention. And he returned to meet him, and told him saying, The lad is not awaked.
Gehasi sì ń lọ síbẹ̀ ó sì fi ọ̀pá náà lé ojú ọmọ náà, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ohùn tàbí ìdáhùn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Gehasi padà lọ láti lọ bá Eliṣa láti sọ fún un pé, “Ọmọ ọkùnrin náà kò tí ì dìde.”
32 And when Elisha came into the house, behold, the child was dead, [and] laid upon his bed.
Nígbà tí Eliṣa dé inú ilé, níbẹ̀ ni òkú ọmọ ọkùnrin náà dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn.
33 And he went in and shut the door upon them both, and prayed to Jehovah.
Ó sì wọ ilé, ó sì ti ìlẹ̀kùn mọ́ àwọn méjèèjì ó sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa.
34 And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands, and bent over him; and the flesh of the child grew warm.
Nígbà náà ó dé orí ibùsùn, ó sùn sórí ọmọ ọkùnrin náà, ẹnu sí ẹnu, ojú sí ojú, ọwọ́ sí ọwọ́. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti nà ara rẹ̀ lórí rẹ̀, ara ọmọ náà sì gbóná.
35 And he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and bent over him. And the lad sneezed seven times, and the lad opened his eyes.
Eliṣa yípadà lọ, ó sì rìn padà ó sì jáde wá sínú ilé nígbà náà ó sì padà sí orí ibùsùn ó sì tún nà lé e ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan sí i. Ọmọ ọkùnrin náà sì sín ní ìgbà méje ó sì ṣí ojú rẹ̀.
36 And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. And he called her; and she came to him. And he said, Take up thy son.
Eliṣa sì pe Gehasi ó sì wí pé, “Pe ará Ṣunemu.” Ó sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀. Nígbà tí ó dé, ó wí pé, “Gba ọmọ rẹ.”
37 And she came and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out.
Ó sì wọlé, ó sì kúnlẹ̀ síwájú ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ó sì tẹ̀ orí sílẹ̀. Nígbà náà ó sì mú ọmọ rẹ̀ ó sì jáde lọ.
38 And Elisha came again to Gilgal. And there was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him. And he said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.
Eliṣa padà sí Gilgali ìyàn sì wà ní ilẹ̀ náà. Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ wòlíì ṣe ìpàdé pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Gbé ìkòkò ńlá ka iná kí o sì se ọbẹ̀ aláta díẹ̀ fún àwọn ọkùnrin yìí.”
39 Then one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered from it his lap full of wild colocynths, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage; for they did not know them.
Ọ̀kan lára wọn jáde lọ sí orí pápá láti kó ewébẹ̀ jọ àti láti wá àjàrà igbó. Ó sì kó díẹ̀ nínú ẹ̀fọ́ gbọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ jọ, ó sì ka a kún aṣọ agbádá rẹ̀. Nígbà tí ó padà dé, ó sì gé wọn sínú ìkòkò ọbẹ̀, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé kò sí ẹni tí ó mọ ohun tí wọ́n ń jẹ.
40 And they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out and said, Man of God, there is death in the pot! And they could not eat [it].
Wọ́n da ọbẹ̀ náà jáde fun àwọn ọkùnrin náà, ṣùgbọ́n bí wọ́n ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní jẹ oúnjẹ náà, wọ́n sọkún jáde, “Ìwọ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ikú ń bẹ nínú ìkòkò yìí!” Wọn kò sì le jẹ ẹ́.
41 And he said, Then bring meal. And he cast [it] into the pot, and said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
Eliṣa sì wí pé, “Mú ìyẹ̀fun díẹ̀ wá,” Ó sì fi sínú ìkòkò ó sì wí pé, “Kí ó sì fi fún àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ.” Kò sì sí ohun tí ó léwu nínú ìkòkò náà.
42 And there came a man from Baal-shalishah, and brought the man of God bread of the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of corn in his sack. And he said, Give to the people that they may eat.
Ọkùnrin kan wá láti Baali-Ṣaliṣa, ó sì mú àkàrà àkọ́so èso, ogún ìṣù àkàrà barle, tí wọ́n dín láti ara àkọ́so èso àgbàdo, àti pẹ̀lú síírí ọkà tuntun nínú àpò rẹ̀ wá fún ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà. Òun sì wí pé, “Fún àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ.”
43 And his attendant said, How shall I set this before a hundred men? And he said, Give the people that they may eat; for thus saith Jehovah: They shall eat, and shall have to spare.
“Báwo ni èmi yóò ṣe gbé èyí ka iwájú àwọn ọgọ́rùn-ún ènìyàn?” ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ béèrè. Ṣùgbọ́n Eliṣa dá a lóhùn pé, “Gbé e fún àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ, nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ: ‘Wọn yóò jẹ yóò sì tún ṣẹ́kù.’”
44 And he set [it] before them, and they ate and left [thereof], according to the word of Jehovah.
Nígbà náà ó gbé e ka iwájú wọn, wọ́n sì jẹ ẹ́, wọ́n sì ní èyí tó ṣẹ́kù, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
