2 Kings 8
1 Elisha told the woman whose son he had brought back to life, “You and your family need to pack up and leave, and live where you can somewhere else like a foreigner. For the Lord announced a famine will come to the land and will last seven years.”
Heliseus autem locutus est ad mulierem cuius vivere fecerat filium dicens surge vade tu et domus tua et peregrinare ubicumque reppereris vocavit enim Dominus famem et veniet super terram septem annis
2 The woman packed up and did what the man of God had told her. She and her family went and lived as foreigners for seven years in the country of the Philistines.
quae surrexit et fecit iuxta verbum hominis Dei et vadens cum domo sua peregrinata est in terra Philisthim diebus multis
3 When the seven years were over, she came back from the country of the Philistines and went to the king to appeal for the return of her house and lands.
cumque finiti essent anni septem reversa est mulier de terra Philisthim et egressa est ut interpellaret regem pro domo sua et agris suis
4 The king was talking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, asking him, “Please tell me about all the wonderful things Elisha did.”
rex autem loquebatur cum Giezi puero viri Dei dicens narra mihi omnia magnalia quae fecit Heliseus
5 It so happened that right then Gehazi was telling the king the story of how Elisha had brought the dead boy back to life when his mother arrived to make her appeal to the king for the return of her house and lands. “My lord the king,” Gehazi called out, “this is the woman, and this is her son that Elisha brought back to life.”
cumque ille narraret regi quomodo mortuum suscitasset apparuit mulier cuius vivificaverat filium clamans ad regem pro domo sua et pro agris suis dixitque Giezi domine mi rex haec est mulier et hic filius eius quem suscitavit Heliseus
6 The king asked the woman about it and she explained the whole story to him. The king gave orders to an official, saying, “Make sure everything that belonged to her is returned to her, together with all the profit from her lands from the day that she left the country until now.”
et interrogavit rex mulierem quae narravit ei deditque ei rex eunuchum unum dicens restitue ei omnia quae sua sunt et universos reditus agrorum a die qua reliquit terram usque ad praesens
7 Elisha went to Damascus when Ben-hadad king of Aram was ill. The king was informed, “The man of God has arrived in town.”
venit quoque Heliseus Damascum et Benadad rex Syriae aegrotabat nuntiaveruntque ei dicentes venit vir Dei huc
8 The king ordered Hazael, “Take a gift with you and go and meet the man of God. Ask him to ask the Lord, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
et ait rex ad Azahel tolle tecum munera et vade in occursum viri Dei et consule Dominum per eum dicens si evadere potero de infirmitate mea hac
9 So Hazael went to meet Elisha. He took with him a gift of all the best things from Damascus—forty camel-loads of goods. He came in and stood before him and said, “Your son Ben-hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
ivit igitur Azahel in occursum eius habens secum munera et omnia bona Damasci onera quadraginta camelorum cumque stetisset coram eo ait filius tuus Benadad rex Syriae misit me ad te dicens si sanari potero de infirmitate mea hac
10 “Go and tell him, ‘You will definitely recover.’ But the Lord has shown me that definitely he is going to die,” Elisha replied.
dixitque ei Heliseus vade dic ei sanaberis porro ostendit mihi Dominus quia morte morietur
11 Elisha stared at him for a long time until Hazael became uncomfortable. Then the man of God started to cry.
stetitque cum eo et conturbatus est usque ad suffusionem vultus flevitque vir Dei
12 “Why are you crying, my lord?” asked Hazael. “Because I know the evil things you are going to do to the Israelites,” Elisha replied. “You will set their fortresses on fire, kill their young men with the sword, dash to pieces their little ones, and rip open their pregnant women.”
cui Azahel ait quare dominus meus flet at ille respondit quia scio quae facturus sis filiis Israhel mala civitates eorum munitas igne succendes et iuvenes eorum interficies gladio et parvulos eorum elides et praegnantes divides
13 “But how could someone like me who's just a ‘dog’ achieve anything like that?” Hazael asked. “The Lord has shown me that you are going to be the king of Aram,” Elisha replied.
dixitque Azahel quid enim sum servus tuus canis ut faciam rem istam magnam et ait Heliseus ostendit mihi Dominus te regem Syriae fore
14 Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha tell you?” Hazael replied, “He told me you would definitely recover.”
qui cum recessisset ab Heliseo venit ad dominum suum qui ait ei quid tibi dixit Heliseus at ille respondit dixit mihi recipiet sanitatem
15 But the following day Hazael took the bed cover, soaked it in water, and spread it over the king's face until he died. Then Hazael took over from him as king.
cumque venisset dies altera tulit sagulum et infudit aqua et expandit super faciem eius quo mortuo regnavit Azahel pro eo
16 Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, began his reign as king of Judah in the fifth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, while Jehoshaphat was still king of Judah.
anno quinto Ioram filii Ahab regis Israhel et Iosaphat regis Iuda regnavit Ioram filius Iosaphat rex Iuda
17 He was thirty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years.
triginta duorum erat annorum cum regnare coepisset et octo annis regnavit in Hierusalem
18 Jehoram followed the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he married a daughter of Ahab and did what was evil in the Lord's sight.
ambulavitque in viis regum Israhel sicut ambulaverat domus Ahab filia enim Ahab erat uxor eius et fecit quod malum est coram Domino
19 But for the sake of David his servant the Lord didn't want to destroy Judah since he had promised him that there would always be a ruler from his descendants, like a lamp forever.
noluit autem Dominus disperdere Iudam propter David servum suum sicut promiserat ei ut daret illi lucernam et filiis eius cunctis diebus
20 During Jehoram's time as king, Edom rebelled against Judah's rule and chose their own king.
in diebus eius recessit Edom ne esset sub Iuda et constituit sibi regem
21 So Jehoram went over to Zair with all his chariots. The Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but he took action and attacked at night. But his army ran back to their homes.
venitque Ioram Seira et omnis currus cum eo et surrexit nocte percussitque Idumeos qui eum circumdederant et principes curruum populus autem fugit in tabernacula sua
22 As a result Edom has been in rebellion against Judah's rule to this day. At the same time Libnah also decided to rebel.
recessit ergo Edom ne esset sub Iuda usque ad diem hanc tunc recessit et Lobna in tempore illo
23 The rest of what happened in Jehoram's reign and all that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
reliqua autem sermonum Ioram et universa quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Iuda
24 Jehoram died and was buried with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
et dormivit Ioram cum patribus suis sepultusque est cum eis in civitate David et regnavit Ahazias filius eius pro eo
25 Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, became king of Judah in the twelfth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel.
anno duodecimo Ioram filii Ahab regis Israhel regnavit Ahazias filius Ioram regis Iudae
26 Ahaziah was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri, king of Israel.
viginti duorum annorum erat Ahazias cum regnare coepisset et uno anno regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Athalia filia Amri regis Israhel
27 Ahaziah also followed the evil ways of the family of Ahab, and did what was evil in the Lord's sight as the family of Ahab had done, for he was related to them by marriage.
et ambulavit in viis domus Ahab et fecit quod malum est coram Domino sicut domus Ahab gener enim domus Ahab fuit
28 Ahaziah went with Joram, son of Ahab, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram,
abiit quoque cum Ioram filio Ahab ad proeliandum contra Azahel regem Syriae in Ramoth Galaad et vulneraverunt Syri Ioram
29 and he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received in Ramah fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went to Jezreel to visit Joram, son of Ahab, because Joram was wounded.
qui reversus est ut curaretur in Hiezrahel quia vulneraverant eum Syri in Rama proeliantem contra Azahel regem Syriae porro Ahazias filius Ioram rex Iuda descendit invisere Ioram filium Ahab in Hiezrahel quia aegrotabat
