2 Kings 2
1 And it comes to pass, at YHWH’s taking up Elijah to the heavens in a whirlwind, that Elijah goes, and Elisha, from Gilgal,
Succedeu pois que, havendo o Senhor de elevar a Elias n'um redemoinho ao céu, Elias partiu com Eliseo de Gilgal.
2 and Elijah says to Elisha, “Please abide here, for YHWH has sent me to Beth-El”; and Elisha says, “YHWH lives, and your soul lives, if I leave you”; and they go down to Beth-El.
E disse Elias a Eliseo: Fica-te aqui, porque o Senhor me enviou a Bethel. Porém Eliseo disse: Vive o Senhor, e vive a tua alma, que te não deixarei. E assim foram a Bethel.
3 And sons of the prophets who [are] in Beth-El come out to Elisha, and say to him, “Have you known that today YHWH is taking your lord from your head?” And he says, “I also have known—keep silent.”
Então os filhos dos prophetas que estavam em Bethel sairam a Eliseo, e lhe disseram: Sabes que o Senhor hoje tomará o teu senhor por de cima da tua cabeça? E elle disse: Tambem eu bem o sei; calae-vos.
4 And Elijah says to him, “Elisha, please abide here, for YHWH has sent me to Jericho”; and he says, “YHWH lives, and your soul lives, if I leave you”; and they come to Jericho.
E Elias lhe disse: Eliseo, fica-te aqui, porque o Senhor me enviou a Jericó. Porém elle disse: Vive o Senhor, e vive a tua alma, que te não deixarei. E assim vieram a Jericó.
5 And sons of the prophets who [are] in Jericho come near to Elisha, and say to him, “Have you known that today YHWH is taking your lord from your head?” And he says, “I also have known—keep silent.”
Então os filhos dos prophetas que estavam em Jericó se chegaram a Eliseo, e lhe disseram: Sabes que o Senhor hoje tomará o teu senhor por de cima da tua cabeça? E elle disse: Tambem eu bem o sei; calae-vos.
6 And Elijah says to him, “Please abide here, for YHWH has sent me to the Jordan”; and he says, “YHWH lives, and your soul lives, if I leave you”; and both of them go on—
E Elias disse: Fica-te aqui, porque o Senhor me enviou ao Jordão. Mas elle disse: Vive o Senhor, e vive a tua alma, que te não deixarei. E assim ambos foram juntos.
7 and fifty men of the sons of the prophets have gone on, and stand opposite [them] far off—and both of them have stood by the Jordan.
E foram cincoenta homens dos filhos dos prophetas, e de longe pararam defronte: e elles ambos pararam junto ao Jordão.
8 And Elijah takes his robe, and wraps [it] together, and strikes the waters, and they are halved, here and there, and both of them pass over on dry land.
Então Elias tomou a sua capa, e a dobrou, e feriu as aguas, as quaes se dividiram para as duas bandas: e passaram ambos em secco.
9 And it comes to pass, at their passing over, that Elijah has said to Elisha, “Ask what I do for you before I am taken from you.” And Elisha says, “Indeed, please let there be a double portion of your spirit to me”;
Succedeu pois que, havendo elles passado, Elias disse a Eliseo: Pede-me o que queres que te faça, antes que seja tomado de ti. E disse Eliseo: Peço-te que haja porção dobrada de teu espirito sobre mim
10 and he says, “You have asked a hard thing; if you see me taken from you, it is to you so; and if not, it is not.”
E disse: Coisa dura pediste; se me vires quando fôr tomado de ti, assim se te fará, porém, se não, não se fará
11 And it comes to pass, they are going, going on and speaking, and behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire [appear], and they separate between them both, and Elijah goes up to the heavens in a whirlwind.
E succedeu que, indo elles andando e fallando, eis que um carro de fogo, com cavallos de fogo, os separou um do outro: e Elias subiu ao céu n'um redemoinho.
12 And Elisha is seeing, and he is crying, “My father! My father! The chariot of Israel and its horsemen!” And he has not seen him again; and he takes hold on his garments and tears them into two pieces.
O que vendo Eliseo, clamou: Meu pae, meu pae, carros de Israel, e seus cavalleiros! E nunca mais o viu: e, travando dos seus vestidos, os rasgou em duas partes.
13 And he takes up the robe of Elijah that fell from off him, and turns back and stands on the edge of the Jordan,
Tambem levantou a capa de Elias, que lhe caira: e tornou-se, e parou á borda do Jordão.
14 and he takes the robe of Elijah that fell from off him, and strikes the waters, and says, “Where [is] YHWH, God of Elijah—even He?” And he strikes the waters, and they are halved, here and there, and Elisha passes over.
E tomou a capa de Elias, que lhe caira, e feriu as aguas, e disse: Onde está o Senhor, Deus de Elias? Então feriu as aguas, e se dividiram ellas d'uma e outra banda; e Eliseo passou.
15 And they see him—the sons of the prophets who [are] in Jericho—from opposite [them], and they say, “The spirit of Elijah has rested on Elisha”; and they come to meet him, and bow themselves to him to the earth,
Vendo-o pois os filhos dos prophetas que estavam defronte em Jericó, disseram: O espirito de Elias repousa sobre Eliseo. E vieram-lhe ao encontro, e se prostraram diante d'elle em terra.
16 and say to him, “Now behold, there are fifty men with your servants, sons of valor: please let them go, and they seek your lord, lest the Spirit of YHWH has taken him up, and casts him on one of the hills or into one of the valleys”; and he says, “You do not send.”
E disseram-lhe: Eis que com teus servos ha cincoenta homens valentes; ora deixa-os ir para buscar a teu senhor; pode ser que o elevasse o Espirito do Senhor, e o lançasse n'algum dos montes, ou n'algum dos valles. Porém elle disse: Não os envieis.
17 And they press on him, until he is ashamed, and he says, “Send”; and they send fifty men, and they seek three days, and have not found him;
Mas elles apertaram com elle, até se enfastiar; e disse-lhes: Enviae. E enviaram cincoenta homens, que o buscaram tres dias, porém não o acharam.
18 and they return to him—and he is abiding in Jericho—and he says to them, “Did I not say to you, Do not go?”
Então voltaram para elle, tendo elle ficado em Jericó: e disse-lhes: Eu não vos disse que não fosseis?
19 And the men of the city say to Elisha, “Now behold, the site of the city [is] good, as my lord sees, and the waters [are] bad, and the earth sterile.”
E os homens da cidade disseram a Eliseo: Eis que boa é a habitação d'esta cidade, como o meu senhor vê; porém as aguas são más, e a terra é esteril
20 And he says, “Bring a new dish to me, and place salt there”; and they bring [it] to him,
E elle disse: Trazei-me uma salva nova, e ponde n'ella sal. E lh'a trouxeram.
21 and he goes out to the source of the waters, and casts salt there, and says, “Thus said YHWH: I have given healing to these waters; there is not anymore death and sterility there.”
Então saiu elle ao manancial das aguas, e deitou sal n'elle; e disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Sararei a estas aguas; não haverá mais n'ellas morte nem esterilidade.
22 And the waters are healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha that he spoke.
Ficaram pois sãs aquellas aguas até ao dia d'hoje, conforme á palavra que Eliseo tinha dito.
23 And he goes up from there to Beth-El, and he is going up in the way, and little youths have come out from the city, and scoff at him, and say to him, “Go up, bald-head! Go up, bald-head!”
Então subiu d'ali a Bethel: e, subindo elle pelo caminho, uns moços pequenos sairam da cidade, e zombavam d'elle, e diziam-lhe: Sobe, calvo, sobe, calvo!
24 And he looks behind him, and sees them, and declares them vile in the Name of YHWH, and two bears come out of the forest and ripped apart forty-two of the boys.
E, virando-se elle para traz, os viu, e os amaldiçoou no nome do Senhor: então duas ursas sairam do bosque, e despedaçaram d'elles quarenta e dois meninos.
25 And he goes from there to the hill of Carmel, and from there he has turned back to Samaria.
E foi-se d'ali para o monte Carmelo: e d'ali voltou para Samaria.
