2 Kings 6
1 And the sons of the prophets said to Eliseus: Behold the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.
Profet capanaw ni Elisha koevah, khenhaw! nang koe khosaknae hmuen heh, maimouh hanelah a thoungca toe.
2 Let us go as far as the Jordan and take out of the wood every man a piece of timber, that we may build us there a place to dwell in. And he said: Go.
Pahren lahoi Jordan palang na cetsak awh nateh, Hawvah thing tâtueng awh han, mamouh khosak nahanelah sak awh han telah atipouh. Elisha ni oe cet awh leih telah kâ a poe.
3 And one of them said: But come thou also with thy servants. He answered: I will come.
Tami buet touh ni, na sannaw koe ka cei han telah ati. Oe cet van lawih atipouh.
4 So he went with them. And when they were come to the Jordan they cut down wood.
Hahoi teh ahnimouh koe a cei van. Jordan palang a pha toteh, thing a tâtueng awh.
5 And it happened, as one was felling some timber, that the head of the axe fell into the water: and he cried out, and said: Alas, alas, alas, my lord, for this same was borrowed.
Tami buet touh ni, thing a tâtueng lahun nah, cakâ hah tui thung a bo teh ahni ni Aiyoe! ka bawipa, ka hlai e doeh, telah a hram.
6 And the man of God said: Where did it fall? and he shewed him the place. Then he cut off a piece of wood, and cast it in thither: and the iron swam.
Cathut e tami ni, nâtueng tapat maw a bo telah atipouh. Ahni ni a bonae tueng hah a patue. Hahoi thing buet touh a tâtueng hote hmuen koe a tâkhawng teh cakâ teh avanlah a kâlaw.
7 And he said: Take it up. And he put out his hand and took it.
Hatdawkvah ahni ni, racawng leih, atipouh hahoi a kâyap teh a racawng.
8 And the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying: In such and such a place let us lay ambushes.
Siria siangpahrang ni Isarel hah a tuk teh awi haw vah, awi hi vah pawm awh sei telah a sannaw hah a dei pouh.
9 And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying: Beware that thou pass not to such a place: for the Syrians are there in ambush.
Cathut e tami ni, Isarel siangpahrang koe vah, hote hmuen koe cei hoeh hanlah kâhruetcuet. Bangkongtetpawiteh hote hmuen koehoi Sirianaw ni na tâco sin awh han telah tami a patoun.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God had told him, and prevented him, and looked well to himself there not once nor twice.
Isarel siangpahrang ni, Cathut tami ni a dei e hmuen, panue thai nahanlah tami a patoun. Awi haw hoi teh vai touh vai hni touh nahoeh. Voutsout a kârungngang awh toe.
11 And the heart of the king of Syria was troubled for this thing. And calling together his servants, he said: Why do you not tell me who it is that betrays me to the king of Israel?
Hatdawkvah, hote kecu dawk Siria siangpahrang teh a lungreithai poung. A sannaw hah a kaw awh teh, ahnimouh koe vah, maimouh thung dawk hoi, apimaw Isarel Siangpahrang koe lah kampang e kaawm awh vai tie hah kai na panuek sak awh mahoeh maw atipouh.
12 And one of his servants said: No one, my lord O king: but Eliseus the prophet, that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel all the words, that thou speakest in thy privy chamber.
A sannaw thung dawk hoi tami buet touh ni, apihai panuesaknae awm hoeh. Siangpahrang ka bawipa, hatei Isarel ram e kaawm profet Elisha ni na i khan koe na dei e lawk patenghai yah Isarel siangpahrang koe ouk a dei pouh dawk doeh atipouh.
13 And he said to them: Go, and see where he is: that I may send, and take him. And they told him, saying: Behold he is in Dothan.
Siangpahrang ni tami hah a patoun teh, man thai nahanelah na maw ao, tawng awh leih atipouh. Khenhaw! Dothan kho ao atipouh awh.
14 Therefore he sent thither horses and chariots, and the strength of an army: and they came by night, and beset the city.
Marang hoi leng hoi, ransa moikapap lah a patoun. Karum vah a cei awh teh, kho hah a kalup awh.
15 And the servant of the man of God rising early, went out, and saw an army round about the city, and horses and chariots: and he told him, saying: Alas, alas, alas, my lord, what shall we do?
Cathut tami e a san teh amom vah a thaw teh, a tâco toteh khenhaw! ransanaw ni marang hoi leng hoi kho hah king a kalup awh. A sanpa ni a bawipa koe ayâ ka bawipa bangtelamaw ti han toung atipouh.
16 But he answered: Fear not: for there are more with us than with them.
Ahni ni, taket hanh, ahnimouh koelae hlak vah, maimouh koelae a paphnawn atipouh.
17 And Eliseus prayed, and said: Lord, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the servant, and he saw: and behold the mountain was full of horses, and chariots of fire round about Eliseus.
Elisha ni a ratoum teh BAWIPA a hmu thai nahan a mit ang sak haw atipouh. Hahoi BAWIPA ni hote thoundoun e mit a ang sak teh a hmu thai van. Elisha tengpam e mon dawkvah, hmaimarang hoi rangleng hoi akawi.
18 And the enemies came down to him, but Eliseus prayed to the Lord, saying: Strike, I beseech thee, this people with blindness. And the Lord struck them with blindness, according to the word of Eliseus.
Siria taminaw ni ateng a pha awh toteh, Elisha ni BAWIPA koevah a ratoum. Hetnaw heh a mitdawn sak haw atipouh. Elisha e lawk patetlah a mit a dawn sak.
19 And Eliseus said to them: This is not the way, neither is this the city: follow me, and I will shew you the man whom you seek. So he led them into Samaria.
Elisha ni ahnimouh koe, het heh lam nahoeh. Kho hai kho nahoeh. Ka hnukkâbang awh, na tawng e tami koe na ceikhai awh han telah atipouh. Hottelah hoi Samaria vah a ceikhai awh.
20 And when they were come into Samaria, Eliseus said: Lord, open the eyes of these men, that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw themselves to be in the midst of Samaria.
Samaria a pha toteh, Elisha ni BAWIPA koe vah a ratoum hetnaw heh a mit a hmu thai nahan a mit padai sak haw atipouh. Hahoi BAWIPA ni a mit a padai sak awh teh, koung a ang pouh. Khenhaw! Samaria doeh ao awh.
21 And the king of Israel said to Eliseus, when he saw them: My father, shall I kill them?
Isarel siangpahrang ni a hmu awh toteh Elisha koevah apa ka thei awh han maw, thet laipalah maw ka ta han telah atipouh.
22 And he said: Thou shalt not kill them: for thou didst not take them with thy sword, or thy bow, that thou mayst kill them: but set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.
Hatei ahni ni thet hanh. Na tahloi hoi na lilava hoi na man e san hah, na thei han na maw, vaiyei hoi tui hah poe awh na teh cat net awh naseh, a bawipa koe bout phat awh naseh.
23 And a great provision of meats was set before them, and they ate and drank, and he let them go, and they went away to their master, and the robbers of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.
Hahoi teh canei kawi moi a poe awh teh be a canei awh hoi teh, a ban sak awh. A bawipa koe koung a pha awh, hahoi teh Sirianaw ni Isarel ram taran bout thaw awh hoeh toe.
24 And it came to pass after these things, that Benadad king of Syria gathered together all his army, and went up, and besieged Samaria.
Hahoi teh hettelah doeh. Siria siangpahrang Benhadad ni ransanaw a pâkhueng teh Samaria king a kalup awh.
25 And there was a great famine in Samaria: and so long did the siege continue, till the head of an ass was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cabe of pigeon’s dung, for five pieces of silver.
Samaria teh takangnae a patawpoung. Khenhaw! king a kalup awh teh, la e a lû hah tangka 80 touh lah a yo awh. Bakhu ei, pung pali touh dawk pung touh tangka shekel panga touh lah a pâphu awh.
26 And as the king of Israel was passing by the wall, a certain woman cried out to him, saying: Save me, my lord O king.
Isarel siangpahrang teh, rapan koe a cei navah, napui buet touh ni, oe siangpahrang ka bawipa na kabawm ei atipouh.
27 And he said: If the Lord doth not save thee, how can I save thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress? And the king said to her: What aileth thee? And she answered:
Siangpahrang ni BAWIPA laipalah hoi kai ni bangtelah hoi maw na kabawp thai han aw, cangkatin nah koe, misur katinnae koe lahoi atipouh.
28 This woman said to me: Give thy son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.
Siangpahrang ni napui koevah, Bangpatete runae maw bout atipouh. Napui ni, hete napui kai koe sahnin vah na capa heh ca hanelah thei roi han. Tangtho vah kaie capa hah ca roi han atipouh.
29 So we boiled my son, and ate him. And I said to her on the next day: Give thy son that we may eat him. And she hath hid her son.
Hatdawkvah, ka capa hah ka thawng teh ka ca roi toe. Atangtho teh kai ni hai na capa ca hanelah thet van leih ka ti pouh toteh, a capa te oun a hro telah atipouh.
30 When the king heard this, he rent his garments, and passed by upon the wall. And all the people saw the haircloth which he wore within next to his flesh.
Siangpahrang ni hote napui ni a dei e a thai toteh, amae angki a phi teh, rapan van a kâhlai lahun nah, tami moikapap ni a khet toteh, burihni hah un a kâkhu.
31 And the king said: May God do so and so to me, and may he add more, if the head of Eliseus the son of Saphat shall stand on him this day.
Siangpahrang ni Shaphat capa Elisha e a lû teh sahnin a tak hoi kâkapek laipalah awm rah pawiteh, Cathut ni a ngai e patetlah na sak naseh, hot hlak ka pataw lahai yah a ti.
32 But Eliseus sat in his house, and the ancients sat with him. So he sent a man before: and before that messenger came, he said to the ancients: Do you know that this son of a murderer hath sent to cut off my head? Look then, when the messenger shall come, shut the door, and suffer him not to come in: for behold the sound of his master’s feet is behind him.
Hatei Elisha ni a im van a tahung teh a lungkahanaw hai a tahung awh van. Siangpahrang ni ahni koe patoune a patoun. Hatei hote a patoune a tho hoehnahlan vah, Elisha ni tami ka thet e a ca teh kaie lahuen tâtueng hanlah, a patoun e na panuek awh hoeh maw. Hote a patoun e a tho toteh tho na khan awh teh, takhang teng vah ahni hah ngang awh. Ahnie a hnuklah a bawipa e lamcei pawlawk tho hoeh maw a ti.
33 While he was yet speaking to them, the messenger appeared who was coming to him. And he said: Behold, so great an evil is from the Lord: what shall I look for more from the Lord?
Hot patetlah ahnimouh a pato lahun nah, patoune teh ahnimouh koe a pha, hahoi a patoun e naw ni khenhaw! rawkphainae heh BAWIPA ni a patoun e doeh. BAWIPA teh bangkong bout ka ring han vaw telah a ti.
