< 2 Kings 2 >
1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
At nangyari, nang kukunin na ni Yahweh si Elias paakyat sa langit sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo, umalis si Elias kasama si Eliseo sa Gilgal.
2 And Elijah said to Elisha, Tarry here, I pray you; for the LORD has sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said to him, As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. So they went down to Bethel.
Sinabi ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Pakiusap, manatili ka rito dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Bethel.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya pumunta sila sa Bethel.
3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Know you that the LORD will take away your master from your head to day? And he said, Yes, I know it; hold you your peace.
Pumunta ang mga anak ng mga propeta na nasa Bethel kay Eliseo at sinabi sa kaniya, “Alam mo ba na kukunin ni Yahweh ang panginoon mo ngayong araw na ito?” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Oo, alam ko, pero huwag ninyo ng banggitin iyon.”
4 And Elijah said to him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray you; for the LORD has sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. So they came to Jericho.
Sinabi ni Elias sa kaniya, “Eliseo, pakiusap, manatili ka rito, dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Jerico.” At sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya nagpunta sila sa Jerico.
5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said to him, Know you that the LORD will take away your master from your head to day? And he answered, Yes, I know it; hold you your peace.
Pagkatapos pumunta ang mga anak ng mga propeta kay Eliseo na nasa Jerico at sinabi sa kaniya, “Alam mo ba na kukunin ni Yahweh ang panginoon mo ngayong araw na ito?” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Oo, alam ko, pero huwag ninyo ng banggitin iyon.”
6 And Elijah said to him, Tarry, I pray you, here; for the LORD has sent me to Jordan. And he said, As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. And they two went on.
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Elias sa kaniya, “Eliseo, pakiusap, manatili ka rito, dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Jordan.” At sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya nagtungo ang dalawa.
7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.
Kinalaunan, limampung anak ng mga propeta ang tumayo sa harap ng dalawa habang nakatayo sa kabilang dako ng Jordan.
8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided here and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
Hinubad ni Elias ang kaniyang balabal, tinupi, at hinampas ang tubig gamit ito. Nahati sa dalawang bahagi ang ilog kaya nakalakad ang dalawa sa tuyong lupa.
9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for you, before I be taken away from you. And Elisha said, I pray you, let a double portion of your spirit be on me.
At iyon nga ang nangyari pagkatapos nilang tumawid sa kabila, sinabi ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Hilingin mo sa akin ang ibig mong gawin ko para sa iyo bago ako kunin sa piling mo.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Kung maaari hayaan mong mapunta sa akin ang dalawang ulit ng iyong espiritu.”
10 And he said, You have asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so to you; but if not, it shall not be so.
Sumagot si Elias, “Humihiling ka ng mahirap na bagay. Gayun pa man, kung makikita mo ako kapag kinuha ako mula sa iyo, mangyayari ito sa iyo, pero kung hindi, hindi mangyayari iyon.”
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, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
Habang naglalakad sila at nag-uusap, biglang may isang karwahe ng apoy at mga kabayong apoy ang lumitaw, na nagpahiwalay sa kanila, at nilipad pataas si Elias sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo sa langit.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot 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.
Nakita iyon ni Eliseo at nanangis, “Ama ko, ama ko, ang mga karwahe ng Israel at kanilang kabalyero!” Hindi na niya nakita si Elias, at hinawakan ang kaniyang damit at pinunit sa dalawang bahagi.
13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
Dinampot niya ang nahulog na balabal mula kay Elias, at bumalik sa pampang ng Jordan para tumayo roon.
14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted here and thither: and Elisha went over.
Hinampas niya ang tubig gamit ang nahulog na balabal ni Elias at sinabi, “Nasaan si Yahweh, ang Diyos ni Elias?” Nang hinampas niya ang tubig, nahati ito sa dalawalang bahagi at tumawid si Eliseo.
15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah does rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
Nang nakita ng mga anak ng mga propeta na mula sa Jerico na nakatawid siya, sinabi nila, “Napunta ang espiritu ni Elias kay Eliseo!” Kaya nagpunta sila para salubungin siya, at iniyuko ang kanilang mga sarili sa lupa sa kaniyang harapan.
16 And they said to him, Behold now, there be with your servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray you, and seek your master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the LORD has taken him up, and cast him on some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, You shall not send.
Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Tingnan mo, may limampung malalakas na lalaki mula sa iyong mga alipin. Hinihiling namin na ipadala mo sila para hanapin ang iyong panginoon, kung sakali na kinuha siya ng Espiritu ni Yahweh at hinagis sa ilang bundok o ilang lambak.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hindi, huwag ninyo silang ipadala.”
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.
Pero nang napilit nila si Eliseo hanggang sa mahiya na siya, sinabi niya, “Ipadala ninyo na sila.” Pagkatapos nagpadala sila ng limampung kalalakihan, at naghanap sila ng tatlong araw, pero hindi siya nahanap.
18 And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho, ) he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?
Bumalik sila kay Eliseo, habang nanatili siya sa Jerico, at sinabi niya sa kanila, “Hindi ba sinabi ko na sa inyo, 'Huwag na kayong pumunta'?”
19 And the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold, I pray you, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees: but the water is naught, and the ground barren.
Sinabi ng mga lalaki sa lungsod kay Eliseo, “Nagmamakaawa kami sa iyo, nakikita mo na mabuti ang kalagayan ng lungsod na ito, gaya ng nakikita ng panginoon ko, pero madumi ang tubig at hindi mabunga ang lupain.”
20 And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
Sumagot si Eliseo, “Magdala kayo sa akin ng bagong mangkok at lagyan ito ng asin,” kaya dinala nila iyon sa kaniya.
21 And he went forth to the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus says the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from there any more death or barren land.
Nagpunta si Eliseo sa bukal ng tubig at tinapon ang asin doon; at kaniyang sinabi, “Sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Pinagaling ko na ang tubigang ito. Mula sa oras na ito, walang ng kamatayan at lupaing hindi mamumunga,'”
22 So the waters were healed to this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spoke.
Kaya gumaling ang tubigan sa araw ding iyon, sa pamamagitan ng mga salita na sinabi ni Eliseo.
23 And he went up from there to Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, you bald head; go up, you bald head.
Pagkatapos pumunta si Eliseo mula roon hanggang sa Bethel. Habang papunta siya sa kaniyang daraanan, may mga batang lalaki ang lumabas mula sa lungsod at hinamak siya; sinabi nila sa kaniya,” Umakyat ka, kalbo! Umaakyat ka, kalbo!”
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
Tumingin si Eliseo sa kaniyang likuran at nakita sila; tumawag siya kay Yahweh para sumpain sila. Pagkatapos dalawang babaeng oso ang lumabas sa kakahuyan at sinugod ang apatnapu't dalawang bata.
25 And he went from there to mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
Pagkatapos pumunta si Eliseo mula roon sa Bundok Carmel, at mula roon bumalik siya sa Samaria.
