2 Kings 7

1 Then Elisha saide, Heare ye the worde of the Lord: thus saith the Lord, To morowe this time a measure of fine floure shalbe solde for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel in the gate of Samaria.

Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa, “Mou fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova; ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Feʻunga nai mo e feituʻulaʻā ni ʻapongipongi ʻe fakatau ʻae fuaʻanga mahoaʻa lelei ʻe taha ki he sikeli ʻe taha, mo e fuaʻanga ʻe ua ʻoe paʻale ki he sikeli ʻe taha, ʻi he matanikolo ʻo Samēlia.”

2 Then a prince, on whose hande the King leaned, answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, could this thing come to passe? And he said, Beholde, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.

Pea ko e ʻeiki ko ia naʻe faʻaki ai ʻae tuʻi ki hono nima naʻe tali ʻo pehēange ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Vakai, ka ne ngaohi ʻe Sihova ha ngaahi kātupa ʻi he langi, ʻe faʻa fai koā ʻae meʻa ni?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai te ke mamata ki ai ʻaki ho mata ʻoʻou, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke kai mei ai.”

3 Nowe there were foure leprous men at the entring in of the gate: and they saide one to an other, Why sitte we here vntill we die?

Pea naʻe nofo ʻae kau tangata kilia ʻe toko fā ʻi he hūʻanga matapā [ʻoe kolo ]pea naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā ʻoku tau nofo ai pe ʻi heni ke tau mate ai?

4 If we say, We will enter into the citie, the famine is in the citie, and we shall die there: and if we sit here, we dye also. Nowe therefore come, and let vs fall into the campe of the Aramites: if they saue our liues, we shall liue: and if they kill vs, we are but dead.

Kapau te tau pehē, “Ke tau hū atu ki loto kolo, ʻoku ʻi he kolo ʻae honge, pea te tau mate ai; pea kapau te tau nofo ai pe ʻi heni, te tau mate foki. Ko ia ke tau ō mo hoko ange ki he kautau mei Silia: kapau te nau fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu, pehē te tau moʻui; pea kapau te nau tāmateʻi ʻakitautolu, te tau mate pe.”

5 So they rose vp in the twilight, to goe to the campe of the Aramites: and when they were come to the vtmost part of the campe of the Aramites, loe, there was no man there.

Ko ia naʻa nau tuʻu hake ʻi he kei fakapoʻupoʻuli ke ʻalu ki he ʻapitanga ʻoe kakai Silia; pea ʻi heʻenau hoko ange ki he ngataʻanga ʻaupito ʻoe ʻapitanga ʻoe kakai Silia, vakai naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi ai.

6 For the Lord had caused the campe of the Aramites to heare a noyse of charets and a noise of horses, and a noise of a great armie, so that they sayde one to another, Beholde, the King of Israel hath hired against vs the Kings of the Hittites, and the Kings of the Egyptians to come vpon vs.

He naʻe meʻa ʻe Sihova ke fanongo ʻe he kakai Silia ki he patū ʻoe ngaahi saliote, mo e longoaʻa ʻoe ngaahi fanga hoosi, ʻio, ki he patū mai ʻoe fuʻu kautau tokolahi: pea naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, Vakai kuo piutau ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mei he ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kakai Heti, mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ke haʻu ʻo tauʻi ʻakitautolu.

7 Wherefore they arose, and fled in the twilight, and left their tentes and their horses, and their asses, euen the campe as it was, and fledde for their liues.

Pea ko ia naʻa nau tutuʻu hake ai ʻo hola ʻi heʻene kei fakapoʻupoʻuli, mo nau siʻaki honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki, mo ʻenau fanga hoosi, mo ʻenau fanga ʻasi, ʻio, ʻae ʻapitanga kotoa mo ia naʻe ʻi ai, ka nau hola ke nau moʻui.

8 And when these lepers came to the vtmost part of the campe, they entred into one tent, and did eate and drinke, and caryed thence siluer and golde, and raiment, and went and hid it: after they returned, and entred into another tent, and caryed thence also, and went and hid it.

Pea ʻi he hoko atu ʻae kau kilia ni ki he ngataʻanga ʻaupito ʻoe ʻapitanga, naʻa nau hū atu ki he fale fehikitaki ʻe taha, ʻonau kai mo inu, mo nau ʻave mei ai ʻae siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi kofu, mo nau ʻalu ʻo fufū ia; mo nau toe haʻu ʻo hū ki he fale fehikitaki ʻe taha, ʻo fetuku foki mei ai, mo nau ʻalu ʻo fufū ia.

9 Then saide one to another, We doe not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we holde our peace. if we tary till day light, some mischiefe will come vpon vs. Nowe therefore, come, let vs goe, and tell the Kings housholde.

Hili ia naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “ʻOku ʻikai lelei ʻae meʻa ʻoku tau fai: ko e ʻaho eni ko e ʻaho ʻoe ongoongolelei, ka ʻoku tau fakalongo pe: kapau te tau tatali kaeʻoua ke ʻaho, ʻe hoko ha kovi kiate kitautolu: ko ia mou omi, koeʻuhi ke tau ʻalu ʻo fakahā eni ki he kaungāfale ʻoe tuʻi.”

10 So they came, and called vnto the porters of the citie, and tolde them, saying, We came to the campe of the Aramites, and loe, there was no man there, neither voyce of man, but horses tyed and asses tyed: and the tents are as they were.

Ko ia naʻa nau haʻu mo nau ui ki he tangata leʻo ʻoe kolo: pea naʻa nau tala kiate kinautolu ʻo pehē, naʻa mau hoko ange ki he ʻapitanga ʻoe kakai Silia, pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi ai, pea naʻe ʻikai ongo ai ʻae leʻo ʻo ha tangata, ka naʻe noʻotaki ʻae fanga hoosi, mo e fanga ʻasi naʻe noʻotaki, mo e ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo hangē pe ko ʻenau tuʻu.

11 And the porters cryed and declared to the Kings house within.

Pea naʻa ne ui ʻe ia ki he kau leʻo pea naʻa nau fakahā ia ki he kaungāfale ʻoe tuʻi ʻi loto fale.

12 Then the King arose in the night, and saide vnto his seruants, I wil shew you now, what the Aramites haue done vnto vs. They know that we are affamished, therefore they are gone out of the campe to hide them selues in the fielde, saying, When they come out of the citie, we shall catch them aliue, and get into the citie.

Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae tuʻi ʻi he kei poʻuli, ʻo ne pehē ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, Te u fakahā eni kiate kimoutolu ʻae meʻa kuo fai ʻe he kakai Silia kiate kitautolu. “ʻOku nau ʻilo ʻetau fiekaia; ko ia kuo nau ʻalu atu mei he ʻapitanga ke malumu ʻi he vao, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOka nau ka hū mai mei he kolo, te tau puke moʻui ʻakinautolu, mo hū atu ai ki he kolo.’”

13 And one of his seruants answered, and said, Let me take now fiue of the horses that remaine, and are left in the citie, (behold, they are euen as all the multitude of Israel that are left therein: beholde, I say, they are as the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed) and we wil send to see.

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ha tokotaha ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke tuku ke toʻo ʻe ha niʻihi ʻae fanga hoosi ʻe nima ʻoku toe, ʻaia ʻoku kei toe ʻi he kolo, (vakai, ʻoku nau tatau pe mo e tokolahi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia ʻoku kei toe ʻi ai: vakai, ʻoku nau hangē pe ko e tokolahi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia kuo fakaʻauʻausino: ) pea ke tau fekau atu ʻo mamata.”

14 So they tooke two charets of horses, and the King sent after the hoste of the Aramites, saying, Goe and see.

Ko ia naʻa nau toʻo ai ʻae ongo hoosi toho saliote ʻe ua; pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe he tuʻi ki he kautau ʻo Silia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻAlu ʻo vakai.”

15 And they went after them vnto Iorden, and loe, all the way was full of clothes and vessels which the Aramites had cast from them in their hast: and the messengers returned, and told ye King.

Pea naʻa nau muimui kiate kinautolu ʻo aʻu atu ki Sioatani: pea vakai, naʻe felefeleʻi ʻi he hala ʻae ngaahi kofu mo e ngaahi ipu, ʻaia naʻe liʻaki ʻe he kakai Silia ʻi heʻenau hola fakavavevave. Pea naʻe liliu mai ʻae kau talafekau, mo nau fakahā ia ki he tuʻi.

16 Then the people went out and spoyled the campe of the Aramites: so a measure of fine floure was at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel according to the word of the Lord.

Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae kakai, mo nau veteki ʻae ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻoe kakai Silia. Pea pehē, naʻe fakatau ʻae fuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe mahoaʻa lelei ʻaki ʻae sikeli ʻe taha, mo e fuaʻanga paʻale ʻe ua ʻaki ʻae sikeli ʻe taha, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.

17 And the King gaue the prince (on whose hande he leaned) the charge of the gate, and the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed, as the man of God had saide, which spake it, when the King came downe to him.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ki he ʻeiki ʻaia naʻa ne faʻaki ki hono nima ke ʻaʻana ʻae leʻohi ʻoe matapā: pea naʻe malamalaki ia ʻe he kakai ʻi he matapā, pea naʻa ne mate, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fakahā ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe lea kiate ia ʻi heʻene ʻalu hifo ʻae tuʻi ki ai.

18 And it came to passe, as the man of God had spoken to the King, saying, Two measures of barley at a shekel, and a measure of fine floure shall be at a shekel, to morowe about this time in the gate of Samaria.

Pea naʻe hoko ia ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, Ko e fuaʻanga ʻe ua ʻoe paʻale ki he sikeli ʻe taha, mo e fuaʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe mahoaʻa lelei ki he sikeli ʻe taha, ʻe [fakatau ]ʻapongipongi ʻo feʻunga nai mo e feituʻulaʻā ni ʻi he matapā ʻo Samēlia:

19 But the prince had answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, coulde it come so to passe? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.

Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he ʻeiki ko ia ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Vakai mai, kapau ʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ha ngaahi kātupa ʻi he langi, ʻe mafai ai ha meʻa pehē?” Pea naʻa ne pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai, te ke sio ki ai ʻaki ho mata, ka ʻe ʻikai te ke kai mei ai.”

20 And so it came vnto him: for the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed.

Pea naʻe pehē pe ʻae meʻa naʻe hoko kiate ia: he naʻe malamalaki ia ʻe he kakai ʻi he matapā, pea naʻa ne mate.
