< 2 Kings 6 >

1 And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with you is too strait for us.
Ary hoy ireo zanaky ny mpaminany tamin’ i Elisa: Indro, tsy omby anay ny toerana izay itoeranay eto aminao.
2 Let us go, we pray you, to Jordan, and take there every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go you.
Masìna ianao, aoka hankany Jordana izahay, ka samy haka hazo iray avy any, dia hanao trano ho anay any mba hitoeranay. Ary hoy izy: mandehana ary ianareo.
3 And one said, Be content, I pray you, and go with your servants. And he answered, I will go.
Fa hoy ny anankiray: Masìna ianao, aoka mba hiaraka amin’ ny mpanomponao ho any koa ianao. Ary izy namaly hoe: Handeha ihany aho.
4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.
Ka dia niaraka taminy izy. Ary nony tonga tany Jordana ireo, dia nikapa hazo.
5 But as one was felling a beam, the ax head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.
Fa nony nikapa hazo ny anankiray, dia latsaka tany anaty rano ny lela-famaky; ka dia nitaraina hoe izy: Indrisy, tompoko, nindramina iny.
6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he showed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.
Ary hoy ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra: Taiza no nahalatsahany? Dia natorony azy izay nahalatsahany. Ary Elisa nanapaka hazo, ka natsipiny teo, dia nitsinkafona ilay lela-famaky.
7 Therefore said he, Take it up to you. And he put out his hand, and took it.
Ary hoy izy: Indro, raisonao izy. Dia narosony ny tànany, ka noraisiny.
8 Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place shall be my camp.
Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Syria niady tamin’ ny Isiraely ka nilaza tamin’ ny mpanompony hoe: Any Anonana no hitobiako.
9 And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, Beware that you pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
Ary ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra kosa naniraka tany amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nanao hoe: Tandremo fandrao mankany Ananona ianao; fa any no hidinan’ ny Syriana.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely naniraka tany amin’ izay nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra taminy sy nananarany azy, ka nampiambina tany tsy indray mandeha, na indroa aza.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said to them, Will you not show me which of us is for the king of Israel?
Dia sosotra indrindra ny fon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria noho izany zavatra izany; koa niantso ny mpanompony izy ary nanao taminy hoe: Tsy hambaranareo ahy va izay eto amintsika momba ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely?
12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedchamber.
Ary hoy ny mpanompony anankiray: Tsy misy, ry mpanjaka tompoko; fa Elisa mpaminany ao amin’ ny Isiraely ihany no milaza amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely na dia izay teny lazainao ao amin’ ny trano fandrianao aza.
13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Andeha, izahao izay itoerany mba hanirahako hisambotra azy. Ary nolazaina taminy hoe: Indro, ao Dotana izy.
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
Ary dia nampandeha soavaly sy kalesy ary miaramila be ho any izy; ka tonga alina ireo ary nanodidina ny tanàna.
15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
Ary rehefa nifoha maraina koa ny zatovon’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ka nivoaka, dia, indreo, nisy miaramila sy soavaly ary kalesy manodidina ny tanàna. Dia hoy ilay zatovo taminy: Indrisy, tompoko! Ahoana no hataontsika?
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
Ary hoy Elisa: Aza matahotra; fa ny momba antsika dia be noho ny momba azy.
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray you, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
Ary Elisa nivavaka hoe: Jehovah ô, mifona aminao aho, ampahirato ny masony mba hahitany. Ary Jehovah nampahiratra ny mason’ ilay zatovo; ary dia nahita izy, ka, indro, ny tendrombohitra feno soavaly sy kalesy afo manodidina an’ i Elisa.
18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray you, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
Dia nidina nankany aminy ireo, ary Elisa nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Mifona aminao aho, ataovy manjambena ireto olona ireto. Ary dia nataony manjambena ireo araka ny tenin’ i Elisa.
19 And Elisha said to them, This is not the way, neither is this the city: follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek. But he led them to Samaria.
Ary hoy Elisa taminy: Tsy ity no lalana, ary tsy ity no tanàna; fa manaraha ahy ianareo, dia hitondra anareo ho any amin’ ny lehilahy tadiavinareo aho. Dia nentiny nankany Samaria ireo.
20 And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria, that Elisha said, LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see. And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and, behold, they were in the middle of Samaria.
Ary rehefa tonga tany Samaria izy ireo, dia hoy Elisa: Jehovah ô, ampahirato ny mason’ ireto mba hahitany. Ary Jehovah nampahiratra ny masony, dia nahita izy; ka, indro, tao afovoan’ i Samaria izy.
21 And the king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, My father, shall I smite them? shall I smite them?
Ary nony nahita azy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Elisa: Ry ikaky ô, hasiako va izy? Hasiako va izy?
22 And he answered, You shall not smite them: would you smite those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.
Fa izy namaly hoe: Aza asianao izy; moa asianao izay nobaboinao tamin’ ny sabatrao sy ny tsipìkanao? Rosoy mofo sy rano eo anoloany mba hohaniny sy hosotroiny ary handehanany any amin’ ny tompony.
23 And he prepared great provision for them: and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. So the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.
Dia nanao fanasana lehibe ho azy ny mpanjaka; ary rehefa nihinana sy nisotro ireo, dia nampandehaniny, ary dia nankany amin’ ny tompony izy. Koa dia tsy nankany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely intsony ny mpitoha adin’ i Syria.
24 And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, namory ny miaramilany rehetra, dia niakatra ka nanao fahirano an’ i Samaria.
25 And there was a great famine in Samaria: and, behold, they besieged it, until an ass’s head was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of dove’s dung for five pieces of silver.
Dia nisy mosary mafy tany Samaria; fa indro, nanao fahirano azy ireo mandra-pahatongan’ ny loham-boriky ho lafo sekely valo-polo sy ny taim-boromailala ampahefatry ny kaba ho sekely dimy.
26 And as the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, there cried a woman to him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.
Ary raha nitsangantsangana teny ambonin’ ny manda ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia nisy vehivavy nitaraina taminy hoe: Vonjeo aho, ry mpanjaka tompoko.
27 And he said, If the LORD do not help you, from where shall I help you? out of the barn floor, or out of the wine press?
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Raha tsy vonjen’ i Jehovah ianao, aiza no hamonjeko anao? Amin’ ny famoloana va, sa amin’ ny famiazam-boaloboka?
28 And the king said to her, What ails you? And she answered, This woman said to me, Give your son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.
Ary hoy koa ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona ary no alahelonao? Ary ravehivavy namaly hoe: Hoy ity vehivavy ity tamiko: Aiza ny zanakao hohanintsika anio, ary ny zanako kosa hohanintsika rahampitso.
29 So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said to her on the next day, Give your son, that we may eat him: and she has hid her son.
Ka dia nandrahoinay ny zanako ka nohaninay; ary nony ampitso, dia hoy izaho taminy: Aiza kosa ny zanakao mba hohanintsika? kanjo nafeniny ny zanany.
30 And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by on the wall, and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth within on his flesh.
Ary nony nandre ny tenin-dravehivavy ny mpanjaka, dia nandriatra ny fitafiany; ary nitsangantsangana teny ambonin’ ny manda izy, ka hitan’ ny olona fa, indro lamba fisaonana no nataony manolo-koditra.
31 Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.
Dia hoy izy: Hataon’ Andriamanitra amiko anie izany, eny, mihoatra noho izany aza, raha tsy hotapahina anio ny lohan’ i Elisa, zanak’ i Safata.
32 But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him: but before the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See you how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: is not the sound of his master’s feet behind him?
Fa Elisa nipetraka tao an-tranony, ary ny loholona nipetraka tao aminy; ary ny mpanjaka naniraka olona avy teo aminy; fa raha tsy mbola tonga tany amin’ i Elisa iny iraka iny, dia hoy izy tamin’ ny loholona: Hitanareo va ny nanirahan’ ity zanaky ny mpamono olona ity hanapaka ny lohako? Izahao, ka raha avy ny iraka, dia arindrino ny varavarana, ary atoseho mafy hisakana azy; tsy eo aoriany koa va ny fingadongadon’ ny tongotry ny tompony?
33 And while he yet talked with them, behold, the messenger came down to him: and he said, Behold, this evil is of the LORD; what should I wait for the LORD any longer?
Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy izy, indro, nidina nankao aminy ny iraka ka nanao hoe: Indro, izao loza izao avy amin’ i Jehovah; ka inona intsony no anantenako an’ i Jehovah?
