2 Kings 1
1 And Moab rebelled against Israel, after the death of Achab.
Ary Moaba niodina tamin’ ny Isiraely, rehefa maty Ahaba.
2 And Ochozias fell through the lattices of his upper chamber which he had in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, saying to them: Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my illness.
Ary Ahazia nianjera avy teo amin’ ny makarakara teo amin’ ny efi-trano ambony tao Samaria ka narary; dia naniraka olona izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mandehana, anontanio amin’ i Bala-zeboba, andriamanitr’ i Ekrona, na ho sitrana ihany aho amin’ ity aretiko ity, na tsia.
3 And an angel of the Lord spoke to Elias the Thesbite, saying: Arise, and go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them: Is there not a God in Israel, that ye go to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron?
Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Elia Tisbira hoe: Miaingà, miakara hihaona amin’ ny iraky ny mpanjakan’ i Samaria, ka manaova aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Moa ataonareo fa tsy misy Andriamanitra eo amin’ ny Isiraely va, no mandeha hanontany amin’ i Bala-zeboba, andriamanitr’ i Ekrona, ianareo?
4 Wherefore thus saith the Lord: From the bed, on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. And Elias went away.
Koa noho izany dia tsy hidina hiala amin’ ny farafara izay niakaranao ianao, fa ho faty tokoa. Ary dia lasa Elia.
5 And the messengers turned back to Ochozias. And he said to them: Why are you come back?
Dia niverina tany amin’ ny mpanjaka ny iraka, ka hoy izy taminy: Nahoana re no niverina ianareo?
6 But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that thou sendest to Beelzebub the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but then shalt surely die.
Ary hoy ireo taminy: Nisy lehilahy niakatra nitsena anay ka nanao taminay hoe: Mandehana miverina any amin’ ny mpanjaka izay naniraka anareo, ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Moa ataonareo fa tsy misy Andriamanitra eo amin’ ny Isiraely va, no maniraka hanontany amin’ i Bala-zeboba, andriamanitr’ i Ekrona, ianareo? Koa noho izany dia tsy hidina hiala amin’ ny farafara izay niakaranao ianao, fa ho faty tokoa.
7 And he said to them: What manner of man was he who met you, and spoke these words?
Ary hoy izy taminy: Lehilahy toy inona izay niakatra nitsena anareo izay ka nilaza izany teny izany taminareo?
8 But they said: A hairy man with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said: It is Elias the Thesbite.
Ary ireo namaly azy hoe: Lehilahy mitafy volom-biby izy, sady nisy fehin-kibo hoditra tamin’ ny valahany. Dia hoy izy: Elia Tisbita izay.
9 And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down.
Ary ny mpanjaka naniraka mpifehy dimam-polo anankiray mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny hankany aminy. Dia niakatra tany aminy izy; ka indro izy nipetraka teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra; ary niteny taminy ralehilahy hoe: Ry lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ô, midìna ianao, antsoin’ ny mpanjaka.
10 And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him.
Fa Elia namaly ka nanao tamin’ ny mpifehy dimam-polo hoe: Raha lehilahin’ Andriamanitra tokoa aho, dia aoka hisy afo milatsaka avy any an-danitra handevona anao sy ny dimam-polo fehinao. Ary dia nisy afo nilatsaka avy tany an-danitra ka nandevona azy mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny.
11 And again he sent to him another captain of fifty men, and his fifty with him. And he said to him: Man of God, thus saith the king: Make haste and come down.
Dia naniraka mpifehy dimam-polo anankiray mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny hankany aminy koa ny mpanjaka. Dia niteny izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ô, midìna faingana ianao, antsoin’ ny mpanjaka.
12 Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
Fa namaly Elia ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha lehilahin’ Andriamanitra tokoa aho, dia aoka hisy afo milatsaka avy any an-danitra ka handevona anao mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehinao. Ary dia nisy afon’ Andriamanitra nilatsaka avy tany an-danitra ka nandevona azy mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny.
13 Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees, before Elias, and besought him and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me.
Ary dia naniraka mpifehy dimam-polo anankiray koa indray mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny izy. Dia niakatra ilay mpifehy dimam-polo ka tonga, ary nandohalika teo anatrehan’ i Elia ka nifona taminy nanao hoe: Masìna ianao, ry lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ô, aoka ho zava-tsoa eo imasonao ny aiko sy ny ain’ ireto mpanomponao dimam-polo ireto.
14 Behold fire came down from heaven, and consumed the two first captains of fifty men, and the fifties that were with them: but now I beseech thee to spare my life.
Indro, efa nisy afo nilatsaka avy tany an-danitra ka nandevona ireo roa lahy mpifehy dimam-polo ireo mbamin’ ny dimam-polo fehiny avy; fa aoka kosa ho zava-tsoa eo imasonao ny aiko ankehitriny.
15 And the angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, saying: Go down with him, fear not. He arose therefore, and went down with him to the king,
Ary hoy Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Elia: Midìna ihany hiaraka aminy ianao; fa aza matahotra azy. Ary dia niainga izy ka nidina niaraka taminy ho any amin’ ny mpanjaka.
16 And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die.
Ary hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Satria naniraka olona hanontany amin’ i Bala-zeboba, andriamanitr’ i Ekrona, ianao, hoatra ny tsy misy Andriamanitra eo amin’ ny Isiraely, dia tsy hidina hiala amin’ ny farafara izay niakaranao ianao fa ho faty tokoa.
17 So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elias spoke, and Joram his brother reigned in his stead, in the second year of Joram the son of Josaphat king of Juda: because he had no son.
Ka dia maty izy araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nolazain’ i Elia. Ary satria tsy nanan-janaka izy, dia Jorama no nanjaka nandimby azy tamin’ ny taona faharoa nanjakan’ i Jehorama, zanak’ i Josafata, mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
18 But the rest of the acts of Ochozias which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Ary ny asan’ i Ahazia sisa izay nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely va izany?
