2 Kings 6
1 And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.
Sinabi ng mga anak ng mga propeta kay Eliseo, “Ang lugar kung saan kami nakatira kasama ka ay masyadong maliit para sa ating lahat.
2 Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.
Hayaan mo kaming pumunta sa Jordan, at magputol ng puno roon at magtayo ng matitirahan.” Tumugon si Eliseo sinabing, “Sige.”
3 And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.
Sinabi ng isa sa kanila, “Pakiusap samahan mo ang iyong mga lingkod.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Sasama ako.”
4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.
Kaya sumama siya sa kanila, at nang makarating sila sa Jordan, nag-umpisa silang magputol ng mga puno.
5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.
Pero habang nagpuputol ang isa sa kanila, nalaglag ang ulo ng palakol sa tubig; sumigaw siya at sinabinig, “Naku, panginoon, hiniram ko lang iyon!”
6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast [it] in thither; and the iron did swim.
Kaya sinabi ng lingkod ng Diyos, “Saan ito nahulog?” Tinuro ng lalaki kay Eliseo ang lugar. Pumutol siya ngayon siya ng isang patpat, tinapon ito sa tubig at pinalutang ang palakol.
7 Therefore said he, Take [it] up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.
Sinabi ni Eliseo, “Kunin mo.” Kaya inabot ito ng lalaki ng kaniyang kamay.
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.
Ngayon nakikipagdigma ang hari ng Aram laban sa Israel. Sumangguni siya sa kaniyang mga lingkod, sinasabing, “Ang kampo ko ay nasa ganitong lugar.”
9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
Kaya nagpunta ang lingkod ng Diyos sa hari ng Israel, sinasabing, “Sikapin ninyong hindi dumaan sa lugar na iyon, dahil ang mga Aramean ay bababa roon.”
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.
Pagkatapos nagpadala ang hari ng Israel ng mga tauhan sa lugar na iyon kung saan binalaan siya ng lingkod ng Diyos. Iniligtas siya ng babalang iyon ng ilang beses.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us [is] for the king of Israel?
Gulong-gulo ang isip ng hari ng Aram dahil sa babalang ito, at tinawag niya ang kaniyang mga lingkod at sinabi sa kanila, “Wala ba sa inyo ang magsasabi kung sino sa inyo ang pumapanig sa hari ng Israel?”
12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that [is] in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.
Kaya sinabi ng isa sa kaniyang mga lingkod, “Hindi, panginoong hari, dahil si Eliseo na propeta ng Israel ang nagsasabi sa hari ng Israel ng mga sinasabi mo sa iyong silid!”
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.
Tumugon ang hari, “Humayo kayo at tingnan ninyo kung nasaan si Eliseo nang makapagpadala ako ng mga tauhan para dakpin siya.” At sinabi sa kaniya, “Nasa Dotan siya.”
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
Kaya nagpadala ang hari ng mga kabayo, mga karwahe at isang malaking hukbo sa Dotan. Dumating sila nang gabi at pinalibutan ang lungsod.
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 unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
Nang ang alipin ng lingkod ng Diyos ay maagang bumangon at lumabas, pagmasdan mo, isang malaking hukbo at mga kabayo ang nakapaligid sa lungsod. Sinabi ng kaniyang alipin sa kaniya, “Panginoon! Anong gagawin natin?”
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that [be] with us [are] more than they that [be] with them.
Sumagot si Eliseo, “Huwag kang matakot, dahil ang mga kasama natin ay higit na mas marami kumpara sa kanila.”
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, 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.
Nanalangin si Eliseo at sinabing, “Yahweh, Nakiki-usap ako na buksan mo ang mga mata niya nang makakita siya.” Kaya't binuksan ni Yahweh ang mga mata ng kaniyang alipin at nakakita siya. Ang bundok ay puno ng mga kabayo at karwahe na nag-aapoy sa paligid ni Eliseo!
18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
Nang bumaba ang mga Aramean sa kaniya, nanalangin si Eliseo kay Yahweh at sinabing, “Hinihiling kong bulagin mo sila.” Kaya't binulag sila ni Yahweh, gaya ng hiling ni Eliseo.
19 And Elisha said unto them, This [is] not the way, neither [is] this the city: follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom ye seek. But he led them to Samaria.
Pagkatapos sinabi ni Eliseo sa mga Aramean, “Hindi ito ang daan, ni ito ang lungsod. Sumunod kayo sa akin at dadalhin ko kayo sa taong hinahanap ninyo.” At dinala niya sila sa Samaria.
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 midst of Samaria.
Nang dumating sila sa Samaria, sinabi ni Eliseo, “Buksan mo ang mga mata nila, Yahweh, nang makakita sila.” Binuksan ni Yahweh ang mga mata nila at nakakita sila, at nakita nilang nasa gitna sila ng lungsod ng Samaria.
21 And the king of Israel said unto Elisha, when he saw them, My father, shall I smite [them]? shall I smite [them]?
Nang makita sila ng hari ng Israel, sinabi niya kay Eliseo, “Ama, dapat ko na ba silang patayin? Papatayin ko na ba sila?”
22 And he answered, Thou shalt not smite [them: ] wouldest thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.
Sumagot si Eliseo, “Huwag mo silang patayin. Papatayin mo ba silang mga kinuha mong bihag gamit ang espada at pana mo? Maghain ka ng tinapay at tubig sa kanila para makakain at makainom sila at makapunta sa kanilang panginoon.”
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.
Kaya't naghain ng pagkain ang hari para sa kanila, at nang nakakain at nakainom sila, pinalaya niya sila at pinabalik sa kanilang panginoon. Ang mga grupo ng sundalong Aramean na iyon ay hindi bumalik sa lupain ng Israel nang mahabang panahon.
24 And it came to pass after this, that Ben-hadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.
Matapos nito, tinipon ni Ben Hadad, hari ng Aram, ang lahat ng kaniyang hukbo at lumusob sa Samaria at binihag ito.
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.
Kaya't nagkaroon ng matinding taggutom sa Samaria. Binihag nila ito hanggang ang isang asno ay maibenta sa halagang walumpung pirasong pilak, at ikaapat na bahagi ng isang kab ng dumi ng kalapati sa halagang limang pirasong pilak.
26 And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman unto him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.
Habang dumadaan ang hari ng Israel sa may pader, isang babae ang umiyak sa kaniya, sinasabing, “Tulungan mo ako, panginoong hari.”
27 And he said, If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?
Sinabi niya, “Kung hindi ka tinutulungan ni Yahweh, paano kita matutulungan? Mayroon bang nanggagaling sa giikan o pigaan ng alak?”
28 And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.
Sinabi pa ng hari, “Ano ang bumabagabag sa iyo?” Tumugon siya, “Sinabi ng babeng ito sa akin, 'Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong anak para kainin natin ngayon, at bukas kakainin natin ang anak ko.'”
29 So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.
Kaya't nilaga namin ang anak ko at kinain ito, at sinabi ko sa kaniya kinabukasan, “'Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong anak para kainin natin, pero tinago niya ito.”
30 And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by upon the wall, and the people looked, and, behold, [he had] sackcloth within upon his flesh.
Kaya nang narinig ng hari ang sinabi ng babae, pinunit niya ang kaniyang damit (dumadaan siya sa may pader), at tumingin ang mga tao at nakita na mayroon siyang sako bilang panloob na kasuotan.
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.
Sinabi niya, “Parusahan nawa ako ng Diyos, at lalong higit pa, kung matatapos ang araw na nananatili pa rin ang ulo ni Eliseo sa kaniya, anak ni Safat.”
32 But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and [the king] sent a man from before him: but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: [is] not the sound of his master’s feet behind him?
Pero nakaupo si Eliseo sa kaniyang bahay kasama ng mga nakatatanda. Nagpadala ng tao ang hari pero nang dumating ang mensahero kay Eliseo, sinabi niya sa mga nakatatanda, “Tingnan ninyo kung paanong nagpadala ng tao ang anak ng mamamatay-tao na ito para patayin ako? Kapag dumating siya, isara ninyo ang pinto at pigilan ninyong mabuksan niya ito. Hindi ba't kasunod niya ay ang mga yapak ng kaniyang panginoon?”
33 And while he yet talked with them, behold, the messenger came down unto him: and he said, Behold, this evil [is] of the LORD; what should I wait for the LORD any longer?
Habang nakikipag-usap siya sa kanila, dumating ang mensahero sa kaniya. Sinabi ng hari, “Ang suliraning ito ay galing kay Yahweh. Bakit kailangan ko pang maghintay kay Yahweh?”
