< 2 Kings 2 >
1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah by a whirlwind into heaven, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
BAWIPA ni Elijah heh bongparui hoi kalvan lah tawm hanlah ao toung dawkvah, Elijah teh Elisha hoi Gilgal hoi a cei roi.
2 And Elijah said unto Elisha: 'Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me as far as Beth-el.' And Elisha said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' So they went down to Beth-el. —
Elijah ni, Elisha koevah pahren lahoi hi la awm loe. Bangdawk tet pawiteh, BAWIPA ni Bethel vah pou cei hanelah na patoun atipouh. Hatei Elisha ni BAWIPA hoi na hringnae a hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh ati teh Bethel lah a ceicathuk roi.
3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Beth-el came forth to Elisha, and said unto him: 'Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day?' And he said: 'Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.' —
Bethel kaawm e profet capanaw Elisha koe a tho awh teh, sahnin vah BAWIPA ni na bawipa hah na la pouh han tie na panue maw telah a pacei awh. Oe ka panue doeh, duem awm awh atipouh.
4 And Elijah said unto him: 'Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho.' And he said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' So they came to Jericho. —
Elijah ni, Elisha koe pahren lahoi hi la awmh. BAWIPA ni Jeriko kho pou ceitakhai hanelah na patoun atipouh. Hatei BAWIPA a hring e hoi nang na hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh ati teh Jeriko vah pou a cei roi.
5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said unto him: 'Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day?' And he answered: 'Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.' —
Jeriko kaawm e profet capanaw teh Elisha koe a cei teh, sahnin vah BAWIPA ni na bawipa he na la pouh han toe tie na panue maw atipouh awh. Oe ka panue bokheiyah duem awm awh telah a pathung.
6 And Elijah said unto him: 'Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to the Jordan.' And he said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' And they two went on.
Elijah ni pahren lahoi hi ma la awm lawih. BAWIPA ni Jordan pou cei hanelah, na patoun telah atipouh. BAWIPA hoi nang na hring e patetlah kaawm mahoeh atipouh teh kahni touh hoi rei a cei roi.
7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood over against them afar off; and they two stood by the Jordan.
Hahoi profet capanaw thung dawk hoi tami 50 touh a cei teh kahni touh hoi Jordan palang a kangdue navah, ahnimouh koe lahoi kahlathnawn a kamlang roi teh kahlathnawn lah a kangdue roi.
8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
Elijah ni a hni hah a la teh, a taoung hnukkhu, tui hah a hem teh a vangvang lah a kâkapek. Hahoi ahnimouh roi teh talai kaphui dawk a cei roi.
9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha: 'Ask what I shall do for thee, before I am taken from thee.' And Elisha said: 'I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.'
Palang namran lah a pha roi torei teh, Elijah ni Elisha koe kai hoi kamphei hoehnahlan vah, bangmaw na sak pouh han, het leih atipouh. Elisha ni nang ni na coe e muitha let hni touh na poe loe atipouh.
10 And he said: 'Thou hast asked a hard thing; nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.'
Ahni ni ka ru poung e doeh na hei, ka ru nakunghai thoseh, nang koehai kai yout la e lah ka o navah na hmawt pawiteh, na coe han. Na hmawt hoehpawiteh, na coe mahoeh atipouh.
11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, which parted them both assunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
Hahoi teh cungtalah reirei pou a cei roi teh, khenhaw! hmaileng hoi hmaimarang a kamnue teh a rahak roi dawk a bo teh, a kâkapek roi. Elijah teh bongparui dawk hoi, kalvan a luen.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried: 'My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof!' And he saw him no more; and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
Hahoi Elisha ni a hmu teh, Apa, Apa Isarelnaw e leng hoi marangransanaw hoi kâvan e, telah a hram teh, ama teh hmawt hoeh toe. A hni hah a kuet teh kahni touh lah a phi.
13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
Elijah koehoi e ka bawt e hni hah a la, hahoi a ban teh Jordan palang teng a kangdue.
14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said: 'Where is the LORD, the God of Elijah?' and when he also had smitten the waters, they were divided hither and thither; and Elisha went over.
Ka bawt e Elijah e hni hah a la teh, tui a hem nah, BAWIPA, Elijah Cathut teh nâmaw ao telah ati. Hahoi tui bout a hem torei teh avangvanglah a kâkapek teh Elisha teh namran lah a takhang.
15 And when the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho some way off saw him, they said: 'The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha.' And they came to meet him, and bowed down to the ground before him.
Jeriko kho e profet capanaw ni Elisha a hmu awh toteh, Elijah e muitha Elisha koe ao toe telah ati awh. Ahni kâhmo hanlah a cei awh teh talai dawkvah a tabo awh.
16 And they said unto him: 'Behold now, there are with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master; lest peradventure the spirit of the LORD hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley.' And he said: 'Ye shall not send.'
Ahnimouh ni ama koe khenhaw! na sannaw ni, athakaawme tami 50 touh ni na okhai han, pahren lahoi na bawipa tawng sak hanlah kamthaw sak. BAWIPA e a Muitha ni a luenkhai e patetlah mon dawk na ou, hoeh pawiteh tanghling dawk na ou bout a pabo yawkaw han doeh ati awh. Elisha ni apihai patoun hanh leih atipouh.
17 And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said: 'Send.' They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni kayatho totouh a kâhei awh toteh, ti boum teh patoun lawih atipouh. Hat torei teh tami 50 touh a patoun awh. Hnin thum touh thung a tawng awh hat ei hmawt awh hoeh toe.
18 And they came back to him, while he tarried at Jericho; and he said unto them: 'Did I not say unto you: Go not?'
Jeriko kho ao navah, ahnimouh bout a tho torei teh ahnimouh koevah, cet hanh awh ka ti nahoehmaw atipouh.
19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha: 'Behold, we pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth; but the water is bad, and the land miscarrieth.
Hote khonaw ni, Elisha koevah khenhaw! hete kho heh bawipa ni na hmu e patetlah phuneppoung e doeh. Hateiteh tui hawihoeh dawkvah camo koung a ro atipouh awh.
20 And he said: 'Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein.' And they brought it to him.
Ahni ni tuium katha e na poe awh palawi theng awh ati pouh teh, a poe awh.
21 And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast salt therein, and said: 'Thus saith the LORD: I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or miscarrying.'
Tuiphuek koe a cei teh, hote hah a thung vah a phuen pouh teh BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Hete tui teh ka thoung sak toe. Atu hoi teh duenae hoi camo rawknae awm hoeh toe.
22 So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
Elisha ni a dei e patetlah atu totouh tui teh a thoung.
23 And he went up from thence unto Beth-el; and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him: 'Go up, thou baldhead; go up, thou baldhead.'
Hahoi teh Bethel lah a takhang. Hote lam a cei awh navah, nawsainaw a tho awh. Koe a panuikhai awh teh, lû luengpalueng e cet takhang haw. Lû luengpalueng e cet takhang haw atipouh awh.
24 And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty and two children of them.
A kamlang sin teh, ahnimanaw a hmu toteh BAWIPA min lahoi thoe a bo. Kahrawngum hoi tavom manu ka hni touh a tâco teh, ahnimouh koe e camo 42 touh a kei pouh.
25 And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
Hahoi teh Karmel mon lah a cei awh teh Samaria kho vah a ban awh.
