2 Kings 2
1 And when the Lord would take vp Eliiah into heauen by a whirle winde, Eliiah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
Bere a Awurade pɛɛ sɛ ɔnam ahum so fa Elia kɔ soro no, na Elia ne Elisa nam Gilgal kwan so.
2 Then Eliiah saide to Elisha, Tarie here, I pray thee: for the Lord hath sent me to Bethel. But Elisha said, As the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth, I will not leaue thee. So they came downe to Beth-el.
Na Elia ka kyerɛɛ Elisa se, “Tena ha na Awurade aka akyerɛ me se, menkɔ Bet-El.” Na Elisa buae se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase no, merennyaw wo da.” Enti wɔnantew kɔɔ Bet-El.
3 And the children of the Prophets that were at Beth-el, came out to Elisha, and said vnto him, Knowest thou that the Lord will take thy master from thine head this day? And he said, Yea, I knowe it: holde ye your peace.
Adiyifo kuw a wofi Bet-El no baa Elisa nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Na wunim sɛ Awurade rebɛfa wo wura afi wo nkyɛn nnɛ?” Elisa buae se, “Yiw, minim saa. Enti monyɛ komm.”
4 Againe Eliiah saide vnto him, Elisha, tarie here, I pray thee: for the Lord hath sent me to Iericho: But he said, As the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth, I will not leaue thee. So they came to Iericho.
Na Elia ka kyerɛɛ Elisa se, “Tena ha, na Awurade aka akyerɛ me se, menkɔ Yeriko.” Nanso Elisa buaa bio se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase yi, merennyaw wo da.” Enti wɔnantew kɔɔ Yeriko.
5 And the children of the Prophets that were at Iericho, came to Elisha, and saide vnto him, Knowest thou, that the Lord will take thy master from thine head this day? And he sayde, Yea, I knowe it: holde ye your peace.
Na adiyifo kuw a wofi Yeriko baa Elisa nkyɛn bebisaa no se, “Na wunim sɛ Awurade rebɛfa wo wura afi wo nkyɛn nnɛ ana?” Obuaa bio se, “Yiw, minim. Enti monyɛ komm.”
6 Moreouer Eliiah saide vnto him, Tarie, I pray thee, here: for the Lord hath sent me to Iorden. But he saide, As the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth, I will not leaue thee. So they went both together.
Na Elia ka kyerɛɛ Elisa se, “Tena ha, na Awurade aka akyerɛ me sɛ, menkɔ Asubɔnten Yordan ho.” Nanso, Elisa buaa bio se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase yi, merennyaw wo.” Enti wɔtoaa so kɔe.
7 And fiftie men of the sonnes of the Prophets went and stoode on the other side a farre off, and they two stoode by Iorden.
Mmarima aduonum fi adiyifo kuw no mu nso kɔ kogyinaa akyirikyiri baabi, de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ faako a na Elia ne Elisa gyina wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan ho hɔ no.
8 Then Eliiah tooke his cloke, and wrapt it together, and smote the waters, and they were deuided hither and thither, and they twaine went ouer on the dry lande.
Na Elia bobɔw nʼatade, de bɔɔ nsu no ani. Nsu no mu kyɛɛ abien, ma wɔfaa asase kesee so twae.
9 Nowe when they were passed ouer, Eliiah saide vnto Elisha, Aske what I shall doe for thee before I be taken from thee. And Elisha saide, I pray thee, let thy Spirit be double vpon me.
Wotwa wiei no, Elia bisaa Elisa se, “Dɛn na menyɛ mma wo ansa na wɔahwim me akɔ?” Na Elisa buae se, “Mesrɛ wo, ma minnya wo honhom tumi no mmɔho.”
10 And he saide, Thou hast asked an hard thing: yet if thou see me when I am taken from thee, thou shalt haue it so: and if not, it shall not be.
Elia kae se, “Woabisa ade a ne yɛ yɛ den. Na sɛ wuhu sɛ wɔrefa me afi wo nkyɛn a, wo nsa bɛka wʼabisade no. Na sɛ amma saa de a, wo nsa renka.”
11 And as they went walking and talking, beholde, there appeared a charet of fire, and horses of fire, and did separate them twaine. So Eliiah went vp by a whirle winde into heauen.
Wɔnam na wɔredi nkɔmmɔ no, prɛko pɛ, ogya teaseɛnam bae a ogya apɔnkɔ retwe. Ɛfaa wɔn ntam ma wɔn ntam tetewee, na ahum bi faa Elia de no kɔɔ ɔsoro.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cryed, My father, my father, the charet of Israel, and the horsemen thereof: and he sawe him no more: and he tooke his owne clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
Elisa huruw, teɛɛ mu se, “Mʼagya! Mʼagya! Israel nteaseɛnam ne nteaseɛnamkafo!” Na Elisa anhu no bio, Elisa suanee nʼatade mu abien.
13 He tooke vp also the cloke of Eliiah that fell from him, and returned, and stoode by the banke of Iorden.
Na Elisa faa Elia atade nguguso a efii ne ho gui no, na ɔsan kɔɔ Asubɔnten Yordan konkɔn no so.
14 After, he tooke the cloke of Eliiah, that fell from him, and smote the waters, and sayde, Where is the Lord God of Eliiah? And so he also, after he had striken the waters, so that they were deuided this way and that way, went ouer, euen Elisha.
Ɔde atade nguguso no bɔɔ asu no ani teɛɛ mu se, “Awurade, Elia Nyankopɔn wɔ he?” Ɛhɔ ara asu no mu paee abien maa Elisa faa mu.
15 And when the children of the Prophets, which were at Iericho, saw him on the other side, they sayde, The Spirite of Eliiah doeth rest on Elisha: and they came to meete him, and fell to the grounde before him,
Bere a adiyifo kuw a wɔwɔ Yeriko huu asɛm a asi no, wɔteɛɛ mu se, “Elisa abedi Elia ade!” Na wokohyiaa no, kotow no.
16 And said vnto him, Beholde nowe, there be with thy seruants fiftie strong men: let them go, we pray thee, and seeke thy master, if so be the Spirite of the Lord hath taken him vp, and cast him vpon some mountaine, or into some valley. But he said, Ye shall not sende.
Wɔkae se, “Owura, ka biribi, na yɛn mu ahoɔdenfo aduonum bekyinkyin sare no so, ahwehwɛ wo wura. Ebia na Awurade honhom agyaa no asi bepɔw bi so anaa obon bi mu.” Elisa kae se, “Dabi, monnsoma wɔn.”
17 Yet they were instant vpon him, til he was ashamed: wherefore he saide, Sende. So they sent fiftie men, which sought three dayes, but founde him not.
Nanso wɔkɔɔ so haw no ara, kosii sɛ, onhu nea ɔnyɛ ne ho, nti akyiri no ɔkaa se, “Eye, monsoma wɔn.” Enti, mmarima aduonum, de nnansa kyinkyin, hwehwɛe, nanso wɔanhu Elia.
18 Therefore they returned to him, (for he taryed at Iericho) and he said vnto them, Did not I say vnto you, Goe not?
Bere a wɔsan wɔn akyi no, na Elisa da so wɔ Yeriko. Obisaa wɔn se, “Manka ankyerɛ mo sɛ monnkɔ?”
19 And the men of the citie saide vnto Elisha, Beholde, we pray thee: the situation of this citie is pleasant, as thou, my lorde, seest, but the water is naught, and the ground baren.
Afei, Yeriko mpanyimfo kɔsraa Elisa. Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɔdɛɛfo, yɛwɔ dadwen bi. Saa kurow yi dabea ne nneɛma a atwa ho ahyia yɛ fɛ, sɛnea wuhu no. Nanso nsu no nye, na asase no nso mma nnɔbae.”
20 Then he saide, Bring me a newe cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
Elisa kae se, “momma me nsukorade foforo a wɔde nkyene agu mu.” Na wɔde bae.
21 And he went vnto the spring of the waters, and cast there the salt, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I haue healed this water: death shall no more come thereof, neither barennesse to the ground.
Afei, ɔkɔɔ asu no a kurom hɔfo no saw nom no mu, kɔtow nkyene no guu mu. Na ɔkae se, “Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Mayɛ asu yi yiye. Ɛremma owu, na asase no bɛma ne nnɔbae.”
22 So the waters were healed vntill this day, according to the worde of Elisha which hee had spoken.
Na ampa ara, efi saa bere no, asu no ayɛ asu pa sɛnea Elisa kae no.
23 And he went vp from thence vnto Beth-el. And as he was going vp the way, litle children came out of the citie, and mocked him, and saide vnto him, Come vp, thou balde head, come vp, thou balde head.
Elisa fii Yeriko kɔɔ Bet-El. Ɔrekɔ no, mmarimaa bi a wofi kurow no mu dii ne ho fɛw, serew no se, “Tipae, foro kɔ ɛ! Tipae, foro kɔ ɛ!”
24 And he turned backe, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And two beares came out of the forest, and tare in pieces two and fourtie children of them.
Elisa dan ne ho hwɛɛ wɔn na ɔde Awurade din domee wɔn. Na sisi abien pue fii wuram, bekunkum wɔn mu aduanan abien.
25 So he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
Elisa fii hɔ no, ɔkɔɔ bepɔw Karmel so, na ofii hɔ kɔɔ Samaria.
