2 Kings 3
1 And Jehoram the son of Achab became king over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, and he reigned twelve years.
Ngayon sa ikalabing walong taon na paghahari ni haring Jehosafat hari ng Juda, si Joram anak ni Ahab ay nagsimulang maghari sa buong Israel sa Samaria; naghari siya ng labindalawang taon.
2 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord; but not like his father, and like his mother; and he removed the statue of Ba'al which his father had made.
Gumawa siya ng kasamaan sa paningin ni Yahweh, pero hindi gaya ng kaniyang ama at ina; dahil tinanggal niya ang sagradong posteng bato ni Baal na ginawa ng kaniyang ama.
3 Nevertheless unto the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who had induced Israel to sin, did he cleave: he departed not therefrom.
Gayun pa man, sumunod siya sa mga kasalanan ni Jeroboam anak ni Nebat, na nagsanhi sa Israel na magkasala; hindi siya lumayo sa kanila.
4 And Mesha' the king of Moab was a sheepmaster, and rendered as tribute unto the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs, and a hundred thousand rams, with the wool.
Ngayon, nagparami ng tupa si Mesa hari ng Moab. Kailangan niyang magbigay sa hari ng Israel ng 100, 000 kordero at 100, 000 ng balahibo ng tupa.
5 And it came to pass, when Achab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Pero pagkatapos mamatay ni haring Ahab, nagrebelde ang hari ng Moab laban sa hari ng Israel.
6 And king Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and numbered all Israel.
Kaya sa oras na iyon, iniwan si Haring Joram ang Samaria para tipunin ang mga Israelita para sa digmaan.
7 And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up, I as thyself, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.
Nagpadala siya ng mensahe kay Jehosafat hari ng Juda, nagsasabing, “nagrebelde ang hari ng Moab laban sa akin. Sasamahan mo ba ako sa labanan sa Moab?” Sumagot si Jehosafat, “Pupunta ako. Ikaw at ako ay iisa, ang aking bayan ay iyong bayan, ang aking mga kabayo ay iyong mga kabayo.”
8 And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he said, The way through the wilderness of Edom.
Pagkatapos kaniyang sinabi, “Saang daanan tayo lulusob?” sumagot si Jehosafat, “Sa daanan sa disyerto ng Edom.”
9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah, and the king of Edom: and they took a circuitous route, a seven days' journey; and there was no water for the camp, and for the cattle that followed in their train.
Kaya ang mga hari ng Israel, Juda, at Edom ay naglakad nang halos paikot ng pitong araw. Walang tubig ang matagpuan para sa mga hukbo, ni para sa mga kabayo o ibang mga hayop.
10 And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the Lord hath called these three kings, to deliver them into the hand of Moab!
Kaya sinabi ng hari ng Israel, “Ano ito? Tinawag ba ni Yahweh ang tatlong hari ng magkakasama para talunin ng Moab?”
11 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire of the Lord from him? And there answered one of the king of Israel's servants and said, Here is Elisha' the son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.
Pero sinabi ni Jehosafat, “Wala ba ritong propeta ni Yahweh, para makapagsangguni tayo kay Yahweh sa pamamagitan niya?” Isa sa mga alipin ng hari ng Israel ang sumagot at sinabi, “Nandito si Eliseo anak ni Safat, ang nagbuhos ng tubig sa mga kamay ni Elias.”
12 And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the Lord is with him. And there went down to him the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom.
Sinabi ni Jehosafat, “Nasasakaniya ang salita ni Yahweh.” Kaya pinuntahan siya ni Jehosafat hari ng Israel, at ng hari ng Edom.
13 And Elisha' said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? go to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Not so; for the Lord hath called these three kings, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.
Sinabi ni Eliseo sa hari ng Israel, “Ano ang kinalaman ko sa iyo? Pumunta ka sa mga propeta ng iyong ama at ina.” Kaya sinabi ng hari ng Israel sa kaniya, “Hindi, dahil tinawag kaming tatlong hari ni Yahweh, para matalo kami ng Moab.”
14 And Elisha' said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.
Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh ng mga hukbo, na siyang aking pinanaligan, kung hindi ko lang totoong ginagalang ang presensya ni Jehosafat hari ng Juda, ni hindi kita papansinin, o titingnan.
15 But now bring me a musician. And it came to pass, when the musician played, that the inspiration of the Lord came upon him.
Pero magdala kayo ngayon ng isang manunugtog.” At nang tapos na ang pagtugtog ng manunugtog ng alpa, lumapit ang kamay ni Yahweh kay Eliseo.
16 And he said, Thus hath said the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches.
Sinabi niya, “Sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Gawan ninyo ang tuyong ilog na ito ng maraming kanal.'
17 For thus hath said the Lord, Ye shall not perceive wind, nor shall ye see rain; yet this valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, yourselves, and your flocks, and your cattle.
Dahil sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Hindi kayo makakakita ng hangin, ni makakakita ng ulan, pero mapupuno ng tubig ang ilog na ito, at iinom kayo, ikaw at inyong mga baka at lahat ng inyong mga alagang hayop.'
18 And this is yet too light a thing in the eyes of the Lord; and he will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
Madaling bagay lamang ito sa paningin ni Yahweh. Bibigyan niya din kayo ng tagumpay laban sa mga Moabita.
19 And ye shall smite every fortified city, and every choice city, and every good tree shall ye fell, and all springs of water shall ye stop, and every good piece of land shall ye spoil with stones.
Lulusob kayo sa bawat matitibay na lungsod at magagandang lungsod, puputulin ang bawat magagandang puno, ihihinto ang lahat ng tubig na bukal, at sisirain ang bawat magagandang bahagi ng lupain sa pamamagitan ng bato.”
20 And it came to pass in the morning, at the time when the meat-offering is offered, that, behold, there came water by the way from Edom, and the country was filled with the water.
Kaya kinaumagahan, nang halos oras na ng paghahandog ng alay, dumating ang tubig sa direksyon ng Edom; napuno ang bansa ng tubig.
21 And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they were called together from every one who was girded with a sword, and upward, and they posted themselves on the border.
Nang narinig ng lahat ng Moabita na dumating ang mga hari para lumaban sa kanila, tinipon nila ang kanilang mga sarili, lahat nang may kakayahan na magsuot ng baluti, at tumayo sila sa hangganan.
22 And when they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, the Moabites saw the water at a distance as red as blood.
Gumising sila nang maaga at sumalamin ang araw sa tubig. Nang nakita ito ng mga Moabita, ang tubig sa kanilang banda, mukhang kasing pula ng dugo.
23 And they said, This is blood; the kings have certainly had a contest among themselves, and they have smitten one another: and now, up to the spoil, Moab.
Sumigaw sila, “Dugo ito! Tiyak na nawasak na ang mga hari, at pinatay nila ang isa't-isa! Kaya ngayon, Moab, Nakawan na natin sila!”
24 But when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they smote the Moabites completely, even in their own country.
Nang dumating sila sa kampo ng Israel, binigla sila ng mga Israelita at nilusob ang mga Moabita, na tumakas mula sa kanila. Hinabol ng mga hukbo ng Israel ang mga Moabita sa kabilang lupain at pinatay sila.
25 And the cities they pulled down, and into every good piece of land they cast every man his stone, and filled it up, and every spring of water they stopped, and every good tree they felled, until they left only its stones in Kir-chareseth, and this the slingers encompassed and smote it.
Winasak ng Israel ang mga lungsod, at sa bawat magagandang bahagi ng lupain, naghahagis ang bawat tao ng bato at napuno ng bato ang mayabong na mga sakahan. Pinahinto nila ang lahat ng bukal ng tubig at pinutol ang lahat ng magagandang puno, maliban lamang sa Kir-Haseret, kung saan iniwan nila ang mga bato sa lugar. Pero inatake ito ng mga sundalong may tirador.
26 And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too strong for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew the sword, to break through unto the king of Edom; but they could not.
Nang nakita ni Haring Mesa ng Moab na natalo na sila sa laban, sinama niya ang pitong-daan na mga lalaking gumagamit ng espada para lusubin ang hari ng Edom, pero nabigo sila.
27 Then took he his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt-offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their land.
Pagkatapos, sinama niya ang kaniyang panganay, na maghahari sana pagkatapos niya, hinandog niya ito bilang susunuging alay sa pader. Kaya nagkaroon ng labis na galit laban sa Israel, at iniwan ng hukbo ng Israelita si Haring Mesa at bumalik sa kanilang sariling lupain.
