2 Kings 4
1 And one of the wiues of the sonnes of the Prophets cryed vnto Elisha, saying, Thy seruant mine husband is dead, and thou knowest, that thy seruant did feare the Lord: and the creditour is come to take my two sonnes to bee his bondmen.
Otu ụbọchị, otu nwanyị nʼime ndị inyom ndị amụma bịakwutere Ịlaisha rịọ ya sị, “Ohu gị, bụ di m anwụọla. Ị matara na ọ na-atụ egwuOnyenwe anyị. Ma ugbu a, onye o ji ụgwọ na-abịa ịkpọrọ ụmụ m ndị ikom abụọ ime ka ha bụrụ ndị ohu ya.”
2 Then Elisha saide vnto her, What shall I do for thee? tell mee, what hast thou at home? And she sayd, Thine handmayd hath nothing at home, saue a pitcher of oyle.
Ịlaisha jụrụ ya ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị ka m ga-emere gị? Gwa m, gịnị ka i nwere nʼụlọ?” Nwanyị ahụ zara sị, “O nweghị ihe ọbụla ohu gị nwanyị nwere nʼụlọ karịa naanị ntakịrị mmanụ.”
3 And he sayde, Goe, and borowe thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, emptie vessels, and spare not.
Ịlaisha sịrị, “Jegharịa na-ezi, gaa nata ndị agbataobi gị niile ite nke ihe ọbụla na-adịghị nʼime ya. Ha abụkwala ole na ole.
4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the doore vpon thee and vpon thy sonnes, and powre out into all those vessels, and set aside those that are full.
Mgbe ahụ, baa nʼime ụlọ, gị na ụmụ gị, mechibido onwe unu ụzọ. Malite ịgbanye mmanụ ahụ nʼime ite ahụ niile, mgbe nke ọbụla juru, bupụ ya nʼotu akụkụ.”
5 So shee departed from him, and shut the doore vpon her, and vpon her sonnes. And they brought to her, and she powred out.
Nwanyị ahụ hapụrụ ya, ga mechibido onwe ya na ụmụ ya ndị ikom ụzọ. Ha na-ebutere ya ite niile ahụ nso, ebe ya onwe ya na-agbanye agbanye nʼime ha.
6 And when the vessels were full, shee sayde vnto her sonne, Bring mee yet a vessel. And hee said vnto her, There is no moe vessels. And the oyle ceased.
Mgbe ọ gbajuru ite ndị ahụ niile, ọ sịrị nwa ya, “Butere m ite ọzọ.” Ma ọ zara, “O nweghị ite ọzọ fọdụrụ.” Mgbe ahụ, mmanụ ahụ kwụsịrị ịgbapụta.
7 Then shee came and tolde the man of God. And he saide, Goe, and sell the oyle, and pay them that thou art in debt vnto, and liue thou and thy children of the rest.
Ọ gara gwa onye nke Chineke ahụ, onye sịrị, “Gaa, ree mmanụ ahụ, kwụkwaa ụgwọ unu ji. Gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom were nke fọdụrụ mee mkpa dịrị unu.”
8 And on a time Elisha came to Shunem, and there a woman of great estimation constrained him to eate bread: and as he passed by, he turned in thither to eate bread.
Otu ụbọchị, Ịlaisha gara nʼobodo Shunem. Otu nwanyị nwere ugwu bi nʼebe ahụ. Nwanyị ahụ rịọsiri ya ike ka o rie nri. Nʼihi ya, mgbe ọbụla Ịlaisha si nʼebe ahụ gafee, ọ na-akwụsị nʼebe ahụ rie ihe.
9 And she sayde vnto her husband, Beholde, I know now, that this is an holy man of God that passeth by vs continually.
Ma nwanyị ahụ gwara di ya okwu sị, “O doro m anya nke ọma na nwoke a na-akwụsị nʼụlọ anyị mgbe niile bụ onye nsọ nke Chineke.
10 Let vs make him a litle chamber, I pray thee, with walles, and let vs set him there a bed, and a table, and a stoole, and a candlesticke, that hee may turne in thither when hee commeth to vs.
Biko, ka anyị doziere ya otu ọnụụlọ nta nʼime ụlọ elu anyị, ka anyị tinyere ya ihe ndina na tebul, na oche, na oriọna, ka o nwee ebe ọ ga na-anọ mgbe ọbụla ọ bịakwutere anyị.”
11 And on a day, hee came thither and turned into the chamber, and lay therein,
Otu ụbọchị, mgbe Ịlaisha bịakwara nʼebe ahụ, ọ bara nʼọnụụlọ ahụ, dinaa nʼebe ahụ.
12 And sayd to Gehazi his seruant, Call this Shunammite: and when hee called her, she stood before him.
Ọ sịrị Gehazi onye na-ejere ya ozi, “Gaa kpọọ onye Shunem a,” Ya mere, ọ kpọrọ ya, ọ bịara guzo nʼihu ya,
13 Then he sayd vnto him, Say vnto her now, Beholde, thou hast had all this great care for vs, what shall we doe for thee? Is there any thing to bee spoken for thee to the King or to the captaine of the hoste? And shee answered, I dwell among mine owne people.
Ịlaisha gwara Gehazi, “Gwa nwanyị ahụ, sị, ‘Lee, otu i si enye onwe gị nsogbu niile ndị a maka anyị. Ugbu a, gịnị ka a ga-emere gị? Ọ bụ ka anyị gwa eze okwu banyere gị, ka ọ bụ ịgwa onyeisi ndị agha?’” Ọ zara, “Ebi m nʼetiti ndị m.”
14 Againe he sayde, What is then to be done for her? Then Gehazi answered, In deede she hath no sonne, and her husband is olde.
Ịlaisha jụrụ, “Gịnịkwa ka anyị ga-emere nwanyị a?” Gehazi sịrị, “Nʼezie, o nweghị nwa nwoke, di ya emeekwala agadi.”
15 Then said he, Cal her. And hee called her, and shee stoode in the doore.
Ịlaisha sịrị, “Kpọọ ya.” Ya mere, Gehazi kpọrọ ya, ọ bịara guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ.
16 And he said, At this time appointed, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a sonne. And she sayd, Oh my Lord, thou man of God, doe not lye vnto thine handmayd.
Ịlaisha sịrị, “Na mgbe dị otu a nʼafọ ọzọ, ị ga-eku nwa nwoke nʼaka gị abụọ.” Ọ sịrị, “Mba, onyenwe m, biko, gị onye nke Chineke, agwala ohu gị nwanyị okwu ụgha.”
17 So the woman conceiued, and bare a sonne at that same season, according to the time of life, that Elisha had sayd vnto her.
Ma dịka Ịlaisha si kwuo, nwanyị ahụ tụụrụ ime, na mgbe ahụ nʼafọ ọzọ ya, ọ mụrụ nwa nwoke.
18 And when the childe was growen, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father, and to the reapers.
Nwata ahụ toputara, otu ụbọchị ọ pụrụ jekwuru nna ya nʼubi, ebe ha nọ na-aghọ ọka.
19 And he sayde to his father, Mine head, mine head. Who sayd to his seruant, Beare him to his mother.
O tikuru nna ya sị ya, “Isi m o, isi m o!” Nna ya sịrị otu nʼime ndị ohu ya, “Kuru ya kulaara nne ya.”
20 And hee tooke him and brought him to his mother, and hee sate on her knees till noone, and dyed.
O kuuru ya, kulaara ya nne ya, nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ nọdụrụ nʼapata nne ya ruo etiti ehihie, mgbe ọ nwụrụ.
21 Then shee went vp, and layed him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the doore vpon him, and went out.
Nne ya kuuru ya rigoo nʼelu ụlọ ahụ, tọgbọ ya nʼelu ihe ndina ahụ onye nke Chineke ahụ na-edina, mechie ụzọ pụọ.
22 Then she called to her husband, and sayd, Send with me, I pray thee, one of the yong men and one of the asses: for I will haste to the man of God, and come againe.
O ziri ozi kpọọ di ya sị ya, “Biko, zitere m otu okorobịa na otu ịnyịnya ibu, ka m jekwuru onye Chineke ahụ. Aga m alọtakwa ọsịịsọ.”
23 And he sayd, Wherefore wilt thou goe to him to day? it is neither newe moone nor Sabbath day. And she answered, All shalbe well.
Ọ sịrị, “Gịnị mere i ji ejekwuru ya taa? Ọ bụghị Ọnwa ọhụrụ, ọ bụghịkwa ụbọchị izuike.” Ọ zara sị, “Udo dị.”
24 Then she sadled an asse, and sayde to her seruant, Driue, and goe forward: staye not for me to get vp, except I bid thee.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ nọkwasịrị nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ahụ, nye nwokorobịa ahụ iwu sị ya, “Gbasie ọsọ ike. Akwụsịkwala ịgba ọsọ ma ọ bụghị mgbe m gwara gị kwụsị.”
25 So she went, and came vnto the man of God to mount Carmel. And when the man of God sawe her ouer against him, he sayd to Gehazi his seruant, Beholde, the Shunammite.
Ya mere, o buliri ije, gakwuru onye nke Chineke nʼugwu Kamel. Mgbe o lepụrụ anya hụ ya ka ọ na-abịa, onye nke Chineke sịrị odibo ya bụ Gehazi, “Lee nwanyị Shunem ahụ.
26 Runne nowe, I say, to meete her, and say vnto her, Art thou in health? is thine husband in health? and is the child in health? And she answered, We are in health.
Gbara ọsọ gaa zute ya jụọ ya sị ya, ‘Ọ dịkwa mma? Dị gị ọ nọkwa nʼudo? Nwa gị ọ nọkwa nʼudo?’” Mgbe Gehazi zutere ya jụọ ajụjụ ndị a, nwanyị ahụ zara Gehazi sị ya, “E, anyị niile nọ nʼudo, ihe niile na-aga nke ọma.”
27 And when shee came to the man of God vnto the moutaine, she caught him by his feete: and Gehazi went to her, to thrust her away: but the man of God said, Let her alone: for her soule is vexed within her, and the Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told it mee.
Ma mgbe ọ bịakwutere onye nke Chineke, ọ dara nʼala nʼihu ya, jide ya nʼụkwụ ya abụọ. Gehazi bịaruru nso inupu ya, ma onyeozi Chineke sịrị ya, “Hapụ ya aka, nʼihi na ọ dị ihe na-enye ya nsogbu nʼime mmụọ ya, ma Onyenwe anyị zonarịrị m ya, ọ gwaghịkwa m ihe mere.”
28 Then she said, Did I desire a sonne of my lord? did I not say, Deceiue me not?
Nwanyị ahụ sịrị, “Onyenwe m, arịọrọ m gị nye m nwa nwoke? Ọ bụ na m asịghị gị, ‘emeela m ka m nwee olileanya’?”
29 Then he sayd to Gehazi, Gird thy loynes, and take my staffe in thine hand, and goe thy way: if thou meete any, salute him not: and if any salute thee, answere him not: and laye my staffe vpon the face of the childe.
Ịlaisha sịrị Gehazi, “Ngwa, were ihe ike nʼukwu jikọta uwe mwụda gị, werekwa mkpanaka m nʼaka gị, bilie gaa Shunem. Mgbe ị na-aga ekelekwala onye ọbụla ekele. Ọ bụrụkwa na onye ọbụla ekelee gị, azala ekele ya. Gaa nʼụlọ ahụ. I ruo, tụkwasị mkpanaka m nʼihu nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ.”
30 And the mother of the childe sayde, As the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth, I will not leaue thee. Therefore he arose, and followed her.
Ma nne nwantakịrị ahụ zara sị, “Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ, na dịka gị onwe gị nọkwa na-adị ndụ, agaghị m ahapụ gị laa.” Ịlaisha biliri soro ya bido ịla nʼụlọ ya.
31 But Gehazi was gone before them, and had layed the staffe vpon the face of the childe, but he neither spake nor heard: wherefore hee returned to meete him, and told him, saying, The childe is not waken.
Ma Gehazi butere ụzọ rute nʼụlọ ahụ, were mkpanaka ahụ tụkwasị nʼihu nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ, ma nke a emeghị ka nwantakịrị ahụ teta ma ọ bụkwanụ kuo ume. Ya mere, Gehazi laghachiri izute Ịlaisha, gwa ya sị, “Nwata ahụ etetaghị.”
32 Then came Elisha into the house, and beholde, the childe was dead, and layed vpon his bedde.
Mgbe Ịlaisha rutere nʼụlọ ahụ, ọ hụrụ ka nwantakịrị ahụ nwụrụ anwụ dina nʼelu ihe ndina ya.
33 He went in therefore, and shut the doore vpon them twayne, and prayed vnto the Lord.
Ọ banyere nʼime ọnụụlọ ahụ, mechibido ha abụọ ụzọ, kpee ekpere, kpọkuo Onyenwe anyị.
34 After he went vp, and lay vpon the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes vpon his eies, and his hands vpon his handes, and stretched himselfe vpon him, and the flesh of the child waxed warme.
Emesịa, ọ makpuuru nʼelu nwantakịrị ahụ, tụkwasị ọnụ ya nʼọnụ nwantakịrị ahụ, na anya ya abụọ na nke nwantakịrị ahụ, na aka ya abụọ na nke ya. Mgbe o si otu a dinara nʼelu nwantakịrị ahụ, ahụ nwantakịrị ahụ malitere ikpo ọkụ ọzọ.
35 And hee went from him, and walked vp and downe in the house, and went vp and spred himselfe vpon him: then the childe neesed seuen times, and opened his eyes.
Ịlaisha biliri jegharịa nʼime ụlọ ahụ ugboro ole na ole, laghachikwa makpuru nʼelu nwantakịrị ahụ ọzọ. Emesịa, nwantakịrị ahụ zere uzere ugboro asaa, meghe anya ya abụọ.
36 Then he called Gehazi, and sayd, Call this Shunammite. So he called her, which came in vnto him. And he said vnto her, Take thy sonne.
Ịlaisha kpọrọ Gehazi sị ya, “Kpọọ nwanyị Shunem.” Ya mere, ọ kpọrọ ya. Mgbe ọ bịakwutere ya, ọ sịrị, “Kuru nwa gị.”
37 And she came, and fell at his feete, and bowed her selfe to the ground, and tooke vp her sonne, and went out.
Ọ batara, daa nʼala nʼụkwụ ya, kpọọ isiala. Emesịa, o kuuru nwa ya nwoke pụọ.
38 Afterward Elisha returned to Gilgal, and a famine was in the land, and the children of the Prophets dwelt with him. And hee sayd vnto his seruant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the children of the Prophets.
Ịlaisha lọghachiri na Gilgal, mgbe ụnwụ dị nʼala ahụ. Otu ụbọchị, mgbe ya na ụfọdụ ndị amụma nọ na-enwe nzukọ, ọ gwara onye na-ejere ya ozi okwu sị ya: “Sikwasị ite ukwu ahụ nʼọkụ, siere ndị a mụ na ha nọ ihe oriri.”
39 And one went out into the fielde, to gather herbes, and founde, as it were, a wilde vine, and gathered thereof wilde gourdes his garment ful, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew it not.
Otu onye nʼime ha pụrụ banye nʼọhịa ịchịkọta akwụkwọ nri. Ọ hụrụ osisi vaịnị toro nʼọhịa, chịkọtaa ụfọdụ afụfa ọhịa, nke o kpojuru nʼuwe mwụda ya dịka ọ ga-ejideli. Mgbe ọ lọghachiri, o gbupịasịrị afụfa ọhịa ndị a, wụnye ha nʼime ite ahụ si nʼọkụ, ọ bụ ezie na o nweghị onye maara ihe ha bụ.
40 So they powred out for the men to eate: and when they did eate of the pottage, they cryed out, and sayde, O thou man of God, death is in the pot: and they could not eate thereof.
Mgbe o ghere, a wụpụtara ya nye ndị ikom ndị ahụ. Ma mgbe ha bidoro iri ya, ha tiri mkpu akwa sị, “Onye nke Chineke, lee, ọnwụ dị nʼite nri a.” Ha enwekwaghị ike iri ya.
41 Then he said, Bring meale. And hee cast it into the potte, and sayd, Powre out for the people, that they may eate: and there was none euill in the pot.
Ịlaisha kwuru okwu sị, “Kpotanụ ụtụ ọka.” Ọ ghanyere ya nʼime ite ahụ sị, “Kunyerenụ ha nri ka ha rie.” Ha riri ya. O nwekwaghị ihe na-egbu egbu dị nʼite ahụ.
42 Then came a man from Baal-shalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, euen twenty loaues of barley, and full eares of corne in the huske. And hee saide, Giue vnto the people, that they may eate.
Otu nwoke si Baal-Shalisha bịa, butere onye nke Chineke ogbe achịcha iri abụọ nke e ji ọka balị mbụ a ghọtara nʼubi mee. O butekwaara ya isi ọka ole na ole nʼakpa. Ịlaisha sịrị, “Were ihe ndị a nye ndị anyị ka ha rie.”
43 And his seruant answered, How shoulde I set this before an hundreth men? He sayd againe, Giue it vnto the people, that they may eate: for thus sayth the Lord, They shall eate, and there shall remaine.
Onye na-ejere ya ozi jụrụ, “Olee otu m ga-esi chee ihe a nʼihu narị mmadụ?” Ma Ịlaisha zara, “Chịrị ya nye ndị mmadụ a ka ha rie, nʼihi na otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Ha ga-eriju afọ ha, nwekwa ndị ga-afọdụkwa.’”
44 So he set it before them, and they did eate, and left ouer, according to the word of the Lord.
Ya mere, o chere ya nʼihu ha, ha rikwara, nri ahụ fọdụkwara dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị si dị.
