< 2 Kings 7 >

1 And Elisha said: 'Hear ye the word of the LORD; thus saith the LORD: To-morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.'
Le hoe t’i Elisà, Mijanjiña ty tsara’ Iehovà, Hoe t’Iehovà, Ie manao hoe io te maray le haletake sekele raik’ an-dalambei’ i Somerone eo ty kapoan’ ampemba mona’e, vaho sekele raike ty vare hordea kapoake roe.
2 Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said: 'Behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might this thing be?' And he said: 'Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.'
Tinoi’ ty mpifehe iatoam-pità’ i mpanjakay amy zao indatin’Añaharey ami’ty hoe: Inao! Ndra te nanoe’ Iehovà tsingara­karake ty andikerañe eñe, aia t’ie ho tendreke? Hoe re, Inay! ho isam-pihaino’o, fe tsy hikama’o.
3 Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate; and they said one to another: 'Why sit we here until we die?
Teo ty lahilahy angamae efatse am-pimoahan-dalambey eo; ie nifampivesoveso ty hoe, Ino ty hitobohan-tika etoa am-para’ te mate?
4 If we say: We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there; and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Arameans; if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.'
naho manao ty hoe tika: Antao hizilik’ an-drova: fe ho zoeñe ao i hasalikoañey vaho hivetrak’ ao; ie mboe mitoboke etoa, le hikenkañe ka. Antao arè, hihotrake am-balobohò’ o nte-Ara­meo; he apo’ iereo velon-tika le ho veloñe, ke ho vonoe’ iereo, le ho mate avao.
5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Arameans; and when they were come to the outermost part of the camp of the Arameans, behold, there was no man there.
Aa le niongake te nangoañe, nigodañe mb’an-tobe’ o nte-Arameo; aa ie pok’ añ’ olo’ i tobey, hehe t’ie tsy ama’ ondaty.
6 For the Lord had made the host of the Arameans to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host; and they said one to another: 'Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.'
Amy te nampijanjiñe’ i Talè feon-tsarete o nte-Ara­meo, naho ty feon-tsoavala vaho ty fikoraham-balobohòke, le hoe ty nifanalilia’ iereo: Inao, kinarama’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley haname an-tika o mpanjaka’ o nte-Kiteoo, naho o mpanjaka’ o nte-Mits­raimeoo.
7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
Aa le niongake iereo nitriban-day te mangararak’ atiñanañe, le nado­ke o kiboho’eo naho o soavala’eo naho o borìke’eo, naho nado’ iareo i tobey hoe i teoy avao vaho niherereake mb’eo handrombak’ay.
8 And when these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and they came back, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.
Ie pok’ añ’olo’ i tobey i angamae rey, le nizilik’ ami’ty kibohotse ao nikama naho ninoñe, naho nakare’ iereo ty volafoty naho ty volamena naho sikiñe, le nenteñe mb’eo vaho naetake; nimoaha’ iareo ty kibohotse raike ka le nangalak’ ao naho nente’ iereo vaho naetake.
9 Then they said one to another: 'We do not well; this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace; if we tarry till the morning light, punishment will overtake us; now therefore come, let us go and tell the king's household.'
Le hoe ty fifanaontsia’ iareo, Tsy soa o anoen-tikañeo; toe andro fi­ta­li­lian-tsoa androany, itika mitsiñe avao; aa naho liñisan-tika te manjirike i àndroy le hiambotraham-pandilovañe; antao arè homb’eo hitalily amo añ’anjomba’ i mpanjakaio.
10 So they came and called unto the porters of the city; and they told them, saying. 'We came to the camp of the Arameans, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but the horses tied, and the asses tied, and the tents as they were.'
Aa le nimb’eo iereo nitoka o mpitan-dalambeio, nitalily ty hoe; Nimb’ an-toben-te Arame añe zahay, le hehe te leo ondaty tsy ao, po-piarañanaña’ ondaty, fe soavala mirohy naho borìke mirohy, vaho napoke ey avao o kibohotseo.
11 And the porters called, and they told it to the king's household within.
Aa le nikoike o mpitan-dalañeo, nitali­ly añ’ anjomba’ i Mpanjakay.
12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants: 'I will now tell you what the Arameans have done to us. They know that we are hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying: When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.'
Le nitroatse amy haleñey i mpanjakay nanao ty hoe amo mpitoro’eo, Hatoroko anahareo ty nanoa’ o nte-Arameo aman-tika. Fohi’ iareo t’ie kerè; aa le niakara’ iereo i tobey hietak’ an-kivok’ ao, nikilily ty hoe: Ie miakatse i rovay iereo, le ho tsepahen-tika veloñe vaho himoak’ amy rovay.
13 And one of his servants answered and said: 'Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city — behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it; behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are consumed — and let us send and see.'
Aa hoe ty natoi’ ty mpi­toro’e raike: Ehe, angao hendeseñe i soavala lime honka’e an-drova atoa rey—ndra t’ie manahake ty valobohò’ Israele sisa ama’e ao; ie ho hambañe amy valobohò’ Israele fa nagodrañey—antao hañirake naho handrendreke.
14 They took therefore two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the host of the Arameans, saying: 'Go and see.'
Rinambe’ iereo ty sarete roe reketse soavala; vaho nampihitrife’ i mpanjakay hañorike i valobohò’ o nte-Arameoy iereo ami’ty hoe: Akia mandrendreha.
15 And they went after them unto the Jordan; and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Arameans had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
Aa le norihe’ iereo pak’ am’ Iordaney añe; le hehe te tsi­tsike sikiñe naho haraotse i lalañey, ze naria’ o nte-Arameo amy falisa’ iareoy. Aa le nimpoly o niraheñeo nita­lily amy mpanjakay.
16 And the people went out, and spoiled the camp of the Arameans. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
Niavotse mb’eo ondatio, nikopake ty tobe’ o nte-Arameo. Aa le naletake sekele raike ty kapoak’ ampemba mona’e, naho sekele raike ty kapoake vare-hordea roe, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
17 And the king appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate; and the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.
Tinendre’ i mpanjakay hañambeñe ty lalambey i mpifehe iatoam-pità’ey; f’ie linialia’ ondatio an-dalambey eo, le nivetrake hambañe amy nitokia’ indatin’ Añahareiy, amy saontsi’e amy fizotsoa’ i mpanjakay mb’ ama’e mb’eoy.
18 And it came to pass, as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying: 'Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to-morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria';
Aa le nitendreke, hambañe amy sinaontsi’ indatin’Añaharey amy mpanjakaiy ty hoe: Vare-hordea kapoake roe, sekele raike, le ty kapoake bon’ ampemba: sekele raike, ty ho zoeñe an-dalambei’ i Somerone te hamaray manahake henanekeo.
19 and that captain answered the man of God, and said: 'Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be?' and he said: 'Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof';
Tinoi’ i mpifehey ty hoe indatin’ Añaharey: Eo hey; ndra te nanoe’ Iehovà tsin­garagarake ty andike­rañe eñe, tsy ho nitendreke o raha zao. Le hoe ty na­vale’e: Inao! ho isam-pihano’o, fe tsy hikama’o.
20 it came to pass even so unto him; for the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died.
Aa le izay ty nife­tsak’ ama’e kanao linialia’ ondatio an-dalambey eo, vaho nihomake.
