< 2 Kings 4 >
1 And a certain woman, of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried unto Elisha', saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou well knowest that thy servant was one who feared the Lord: and now the creditor is come to take my two sons unto himself for servants.
Alò, yon sèten fanm pami madanm fis a pwofèt yo te kriye kont Élisée: “Sèvitè ou a, mari mwen an mouri e ou konnen ke sèvitè ou te gen lakrent SENYÈ a. Konsa, mesye ki vèse prè kòb la, gen tan parèt pou pran de pitit mwen yo kòm esklav li.”
2 And Elisha' said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thy hand-maid hath nothing in the house, save a pot of oil.
Élisée te di li: “Kisa pou m ta fè pou ou? Di mwen kisa ou gen nan kay la?” Epi li te di: “Sèvant ou pa gen anyen nan kay la sof ke yon bokal lwil.”
3 And he said, Go, borrow for thyself vessels from abroad from all thy neighbors, empty vessels, let them not be a few.
Alò, li te di: “Ale, prete veso vid toupatou pou kont ou nan men tout vwazen ou yo. Pa manke pran anpil.
4 And then go home, and lock the door behind thee and behind thy sons, and then pour out into all those vessels; and that which is full thou shalt set aside.
Ou va antre anndan, fèmen pòt la dèyè ou avèk fis ou yo, vide nan tout veso sa yo, e sa ki plen yo, mete yo akote.”
5 So she went from him, and locked the door behind her and behind her sons, who brought the vessels near to her, and she poured out.
Konsa, li te ale kite li e te fèmen pòt la dèyè li avèk fis li yo. Yo t ap mennen veso kote li pou l te plen.
6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring near to me yet another vessel; and he said unto her, There is not a vessel more: and the oil stayed.
Lè tout veso yo te plen li te di a fis li yo: “Mennen ban mwen yon lòt veso.” Epi li reponn li: “Nanpwen menm yon veso ankò.” Konsa, lwil la te sispann.
7 Then came she and told it to the man of God; and he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and thou with thy children shalt live of the rest.
Alò, li te vin pale nonm Bondye a. Li te di l: “Ale vann lwil la pou peye dèt ou. Epi ou menm avèk fis ou yo kab viv sou sa ki rete a.”
8 And it happened one day, that Elisha' passed over to Shunem, and there was a great woman, and she constrained him to eat bread; and it happened, that as oft as he passed by, he used to turn in thither to eat bread.
Alò, te vin rive yon jou lè Élisée te pase bò kote Sunem, kote te gen yon fanm enpòtan. Konsa, fanm nan te konvenk li manje pen. Se konsa li te vin rive, ke nenpòt lè li te pase, li te vire antre la pou manje pen.
9 And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who passeth through by us continually.
Fanm nan te di a mari li: “Gade byen, mwen apèsi ke sa se yon nonm sen a Bondye k ap pase bò kote nou tout tan.
10 Let us then make a little upper chamber, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a chair, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.
Souple, annou fè yon ti chanm sou twati kay la. Annou mete yon kabann pou li la, avèk yon tab ak chèz avèk yon chandelye. Konsa li va ye ke lè li vini kote nou, li kapab vire antre la.”
11 And it happened one day, that he came thither, and he turned into the upper chamber, and lay there.
Yon jou, li te vini la e te vire antre nan chanm anwo a pou te repoze.
12 And he said to Gechazi his servant, Call this Shunammite: and he called her, and she stood before him.
Konsa li te di a Guéhazi, sèvitè li a: “Rele fanm Sinamit lan.” Epi lè li te fin rele li, li te parèt kanpe devan l.
13 And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been at pains to take all this trouble for us: what is to be done for thee? wouldst thou be spoken for to the king, or to the chief of the army? And she said, I dwell in the midst of my own people.
Li te di Guéhazi: “Koulye a di li: ‘Gade, ou te byen pran swen nou avèk tout swen sila a. Se kisa nou kapab fè pou ou? Èske ou ta renmen m pale ak wa a pou ou, oswa kapitèn lame a?’” Li te reponn: “Mwen rete pami pwòp pèp pa m.”
14 And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gechazi said, Verily, she hath no son, and her husband is old.
Konsa, li te mande: “Alò, se kisa ki kab fèt pou li?” Epi Guéhazi te reponn: “Anverite, li pa gen fis, e mari li fin granmoun.”
15 And he said, Call her: and he called her, and she stood in the door.
Li te di: “Rele li.” Lè li te rele li, li te kanpe nan pòtay la.
16 And he said, At this season, next year, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, No, my Lord, man of God, do not deceive thy hand-maid.
Epi li te di: “Nan sezon sila nan ane k ap vini an, ou va anbrase yon fis.” Epi li te reponn: “Non, mèt mwen, O nonm Bondye a, pa bay manti a sèvant ou.”
17 But the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season in the following year, as Elisha' had spoken unto her.
Konsa, Fanm nan te vin ansent e te fè yon fis nan menm sezon sa a nan ane ki vini an, jan Élisée te pale li a.
18 And the child grew up; and it happened one day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
Lè pitit la te fin grandi, jou a te rive pou li te ale kote papa li avèk moun rekòlt yo.
19 And he said unto his father, My head, my head: and he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.
Li te di a papa li: “Tèt mwen, tèt mwen.” Epi papa l te pale sèvitè li: “Pote li bay manman li.”
20 And he took him up, and brought him to his mother, and he sat on her knees till noon, when he died.
Lè li te pran li pou te mennen li bay manman l, li te chita sou jenou li jis rive midi e li te mouri.
21 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and locked the door behind him, and went out.
Li te monte anlè a, li te kouche li sou kabann nonm Bondye a, li te fèmen pòt la dèyè l e li te sòti.
22 And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the she-asses, that I may hasten as far as the man of God, and return.
Konsa, li te rele mari li, e li te di l: “Souple, voye ban m youn nan bourik yo pou m ka al jwenn nonm Bondye a epi tounen.”
23 And he said, Wherefore art thou going to him today? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It is well.
Li te di, “Poukisa ou w ap al kote l jodi a? Lalin pa nèf, ni li pa Saba a.” Li te reponn: “L ap bon.”
24 Then she saddled the she-ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; do not restrain me in riding, unless I say it to thee.
Alò, li te sele yon bourik e te di a sèvitè li: “Kondwi pou avanse! Pa ralanti vitès sof ke se mwen ki di ou sa.”
25 So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel; and it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gechazi his servant, Behold, yonder that Shunammite.
Konsa li te ale e te vin kote nonm Bondye a sou Mòn Carmel. Lè nonm Bondye a te wè li a yon distans li te di a Guéhazi, sèvitè li a: “Men vwala se Sinamit lan.
26 Now do run to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with thy child? and she answered, It is well.
Souple, kouri koulye a rankontre li, epi mande li: ‘Èske tout bagay byen pou ou? Èske sa byen pou mari ou? Èske sa byen pou fis ou a?’” Konsa, li te reponn: “L ap bon”.
27 And she came to the man of God to the mount, and caught hold of his feet; and Gechazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is grieved within her; and the Lord hath hidden it from me, and hath not told it me.
Lè l te rive kote nonm Bondye a sou ti mòn nan, li te kenbe de pye li. Guéhazi te parèt pou pouse l fè l sòti; men nonm Bondye a te di: “Kite li, paske nanm li twouble anndan l. SENYÈ a te kache sa de mwen sa, e pa t di m sa.”
28 And she said, Did I request a son from my Lord? did I not say, Do not lead me astray?
Fanm nan te di: “Èske mwen te mande mèt mwen pou yon fis? Èske mwen pa t di ou: ‘Pa twonpe m’?”
29 Then said he to Gechazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, thou shalt not salute him; and if any salute thee, thou shalt not answer him; and lay my staff upon the face of the lad.
Alò, li te di a Guéhazi: “Mare senti ou, pran baton mwen nan men ou pou al fè wout ou. Si ou rankontre nenpòt moun, pa salye li, e si nenpòt moun salye ou, pa reponn li. Al mete baton mwen an kouche sou figi gason an.”
30 And the mother of the lad said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose and followed her.
Manman a gason an te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, e jan ou menm viv la, mwen p ap kite ou.” Konsa, li te leve e te swiv li.
31 And Gechazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the lad; but there was neither voice, nor perceptible sound; wherefore he went back to meet him, and told him, saying, The lad is not awakened.
Guéhazi te pase devan yo e te kouche baton an sou figi a gason an, men li pa t fè bwi, ni li pa t reponn. Konsa, li te retounen rankontre Élisée e te di li: “Gason an pa t leve.”
32 And when Elisha' was come into the house, behold, the lad was dead, laid upon his bed.
Lè Élisée te vini nan kay la, men vwala, gason an te kouche tou mouri sou kabann li an.
33 And he went in and locked the door behind both of them, and prayed unto the Lord.
Pou sa, li te antre fèmen pòt la dèyè yo toude a, e te priye a SENYÈ a.
34 And he went up, and laid himself upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands; and he stretched himself upon him: and the flesh of the child became warm.
Konsa, li te pwoche kouche sou pitit la, li te mete bouch li sou bouch pa li, zye li sou zye pa li, men li sou men pa li. Li te lonje kò li sou li, e chè pitit la te kòmanse vin cho.
35 Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself [again] upon him; and the lad sneezed as many as seven times, and the lad opened his eyes.
Li te retounen nan kay la e te mache yon fwa ale retou, epi li te monte lonje li menm sou li. Gason an te touse sèt fwa e gason an te ouvri zye li.
36 And he called Gechazi, and said, Call this Shunammite: so he called her, and she came in unto him; and he said, Take up thy son.
Li te rele Guéhazi e te di: “Rele Sinamit lan.” Konsa, li te rele li. Lè li te antre kote li, li te di: “Ranmase pran pitit ou a.”
37 Then went she in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.
Alò, fanm nan te antre anndan; li te tonbe nan pye li e li te bese li menm jis atè. Epi li te pran fis li, e te sòti.
38 And Elisha' returned to Gilgal; and there was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the large pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.
Lè Élisée te retounen Guilgal, te gen yon gwo grangou nan peyi a. Pandan fis a pwofèt yo te chita devan l, li te di a sèvitè li a: “Mete gwo bonm nan e fè yon bouyon pou fis a pwofèt yo.”
39 And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild colocynths his garment full, and came and cut them up into the pot of pottage; for they knew them not.
Epi youn te ale nan chan an pou ranmase epis yo e yo te twouve yon lyann sovaj. Li te ranmase sou li kont joumou pou plen vètman li. Li te vin koupe yo, pou fè yo antre nan bouyon, paske yo pa t rekonèt yo.
40 And they poured it out for the men to eat; and it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, Death is in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat.
Konsa, yo te vide li pou mesye yo manje. Epi pandan yo t ap bwè bouyon an, yo te kriye fò. Yo te di: “O nonm Bondye, gen lanmò nan po a.” Epi yo pa t kab manje.
41 But he said, Then bring some meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour it out for the people, that they may eat. And there was nothing bad in the pot.
Men li te di: “Alò, pote sereyal moulen an.” Li te jete li nan bonm nan e te di: “Vide li pou pèp la pou yo kab manje.” Epi pa t gen okenn mal nan po a.
42 And there came a man from Ba'alshalishah, and brought unto the man of God bread of the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley bread, and fresh ears of corn in his scrip: and he said, Give it unto the people, that they may eat.
Alò, yon mesye te sòti Baal-Shalisha, e li te pote pou nonm Bondye a, pen premye fwi yo, ven pen lòj avèk tèt sereyal nèf nan sak li. Epi li te di: “Bay pèp la pou yo kab manje.”
43 And his servitor said, What, shall I set this before a hundred men? And he said, Give it unto the people, that they may eat; for thus hath said the Lord, They shall eat, and shall leave [thereof].
Asistan li an te di: “Kisa, èske mwen va mete sa a devan san moun?” Men li te di: “Bay pèp la pou yo kab manje, paske se konsa SENYÈ a pale: ‘Yo va manje e va genyen ki rete.’”
44 So he set it before them, and they ate, and left thereof, according to the word of the Lord.
Konsa, li te mete li devan yo, yo te manje e te genyen ki te rete, selon pawòl SENYÈ a.
