2 Kings 6
1 And sons of the prophet say to Elisha, “Now behold, the place where we are dwelling before you is too narrow for us;
Àwọn ọmọ wòlíì sọ fún Eliṣa pé, “Wò ó, ní ibi tí a ti pàdé pẹ̀lú rẹ, ó kéré fún wa.
2 please let us go to the Jordan, and we each take one beam from there, and we make a place there for ourselves to dwell there”; and he says, “Go.”
Jẹ́ kí àwa kí ó lọ sí Jordani, ní ibi tí ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan ti le rí ọ̀pá kan, jẹ́ kí àwa kí ó kọ́lé síbẹ̀ fún wa láti gbé.” Ó sì wí pé, “Lọ.”
3 And the one says, “Please be willing, and go with your servants”; and he says, “I go.”
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀kan lára wọn wí pé, “Kí ó wù ọ́, èmí bẹ̀ ọ́, láti bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lọ?” Eliṣa dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi yóò lọ,”
4 And he goes with them, and they come to the Jordan, and cut down the trees,
Ó sì lọ pẹ̀lú wọn. Wọ́n sì lọ sí Jordani wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní gé igi.
5 and it comes to pass, the one is felling the beam, and the iron [ax head] has fallen into the water, and he cries and says, “Aah! My lord, for it was borrowed!”
Bí ọ̀kan ṣe gé igi náà, àáké irin náà bọ́ sínú omi, ó kígbe sókè pé, “O! Olúwa mi, mo yá a ni!”
6 And the man of God says, “To where has it fallen?” And he shows him the place, and he cuts a stick, and casts [it] there, and causes the iron to swim,
Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run sì béèrè pé, “Níbo ni ó bọ́ sí?” Nígbà tí ó fi ibẹ̀ hàn án, Eliṣa gé igi kan ó sì jù ú síbẹ̀, ó sì mú irin náà fò lójú omi.
7 and says, “Raise [it] up for yourself”; and he puts forth his hand and takes it.
Ó wí pé, “Gbé e jáde.” Lẹ́yìn náà ọkùnrin náà na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde ó sì mú un.
8 And the king of Aram has been fighting against Israel, and takes counsel with his servants, saying, “At such and such a place [is] my encamping.”
Nísinsin yìí ọba Aramu wà ní ogun pẹ̀lú Israẹli ó sì bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ gbèrò, ó wí pé, “Èmi yóò ṣe ibùdó mi sí ibí yìí nínú èyí náà àti bí ibí yìí.”
9 And the man of God sends to the king of Israel, saying, “Take heed of passing by this place, for the Arameans are coming down there”;
Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run rán iṣẹ́ sí ọba Israẹli pé, “Kíyèsi ara láti kọjá ní ibẹ̀ yẹn, nítorí pé ará Aramu wọ́n sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ síbẹ̀.”
10 and the king of Israel sends to the place of which the man of God spoke to him, and warned him, and he is preserved there not [just] once and not [just] twice.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli wo ibi tí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà fihàn, ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan sí i Eliṣa kìlọ̀ fún ọba, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó wà lórí sísọ ní ibẹ̀.
11 And the heart of the king of Aram is tossed about concerning this thing, and he calls to his servants and says to them, “Do you not declare to me who of us [is] for the king of Israel?”
Èyí mú ọba Aramu bínú. Ó pe àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ṣé ìwọ kò ní sọ fún mi èwo nínú wa ni ó wà ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ọba Israẹli?”
12 And one of his servants says, “No, my lord, O king, for Elisha the prophet, who [is] in Israel, declares to the king of Israel the words that you speak in the inner part of your bed-chamber.”
Ọ̀kan lára ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì wí pé, “Kò sí ọ̀kan nínú wa, olúwa ọba mi, ṣùgbọ́n Eliṣa, wòlíì tí ó wà ní Israẹli, sọ fún ọba Israẹli ọ̀rọ̀ gangan tí ó sọ nínú yàrá rẹ̀.”
13 And he says, “Go and see where he [is], and I send and take him”; and it is declared to him, saying, “Behold—in Dothan.”
Ọba pa á láṣẹ, “Lọ, kí ẹ lọ wo ibi tí ó wà, kí èmi kí ó lè rán ènìyàn láti lọ mú un wá.” Ìròyìn padà wá wí pé, “Ó wà ní Dotani.”
14 And he sends horses and chariot, and a heavy force there, and they come in by night, and go around against the city.
Nígbà náà ni ó rán àwọn ẹṣin àti kẹ̀kẹ́ àti ogun ńlá tí ó le síbẹ̀. Wọ́n sì lọ ní alẹ́ wọ́n sì yí ìlú náà ká.
15 And the servant of the man of God rises early, and goes out, and behold, a force is surrounding the city, and horse and chariot, and his young man says to him, “Aah! My lord, how do we do?”
Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run dìde ó sì jáde lọ ní òwúrọ̀ kùtùkùtù ọjọ́ kejì, ogun pẹ̀lú ẹṣin àti kẹ̀kẹ́ wọn ti yí ìlú náà ká. “Yé è, olúwa mi! Kí ni kí àwa kí ó ṣe?” ìránṣẹ́ náà béèrè.
16 And he says, “Do not fear, for more [are] they who [are] with us than they who [are] with them.”
“Má ṣe bẹ̀rù,” wòlíì náà dáhùn, “Àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wa, wọ́n pọ̀ ju àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wọn lọ.”
17 And Elisha prays and says, “YHWH, please open his eyes, and he sees”; and YHWH opens the eyes of the young man, and he sees, and behold, the hill is full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha.
Eliṣa sì gbàdúrà, “Olúwa, la ojú rẹ̀ kí ó ba à lè ríran.” Nígbà náà Olúwa la ojú ìránṣẹ́ náà, ó sì wò, ó sì rí òkè ńlá tí ó kún fún ẹṣin àti kẹ̀kẹ́ iná gbogbo yí Eliṣa ká.
18 And they come down to it, and Elisha prays to YHWH and says, “Please strike this nation with blindness”; and He strikes them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha.
Bí àwọn ọ̀tá ṣe ń sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá níwájú rẹ, Eliṣa gbàdúrà sí Olúwa pé. “Bu ìfọ́jú lu àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí,” Olúwa sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Eliṣa ti béèrè.
19 And Elisha says to them, “This [is] not the way, nor [is] this the city; come after me, and I lead you to the man whom you seek”; and he leads them to Samaria.
Eliṣa sọ fún wọn pé, “Èyí kì í ṣe ọ̀nà bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èyí kì í ṣe ìlú náà. Tẹ̀lé mi, èmi yóò mú u yín lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọkùnrin tí ẹ̀yin ń wá.” Ó sì sìn wọ́n lọ sí Samaria.
20 And it comes to pass, at their coming to Samaria, that Elisha says, “YHWH, open the eyes of these, and they see”; and YHWH opens their eyes, and they see, and behold, [they are] in the midst of Samaria!
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n wọ ìlú náà, Eliṣa wí pé, “Olúwa, la ojú àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí kí wọn kí ó lè ríran.” Nígbà náà Olúwa la ojú wọn, wọ́n sì ríran, wọ́n sì wà níbẹ̀, nínú Samaria.
21 And the king of Israel says to Elisha at his seeing them, “My father, do I strike, do I strike?”
Nígbà tí ọba Israẹli rí wọn, ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ Eliṣa pé, “Ṣé kí èmi kí ó pa wọ́n, baba mi? Ṣé kí èmi kí ó pa wọ́n?”
22 And he says, “You do not strike; are you striking those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, and they eat, and drink, and go to their lord.”
“Má ṣe pa wọ́n,” ó dáhùn. “Ṣé ìwọ yóò pa àwọn ọkùnrin tí ìwọ mú pẹ̀lú idà rẹ tàbí ọrun rẹ? Gbé oúnjẹ àti omi síwájú wọn kí wọn kí ó lè jẹ kí wọn sì mu, nígbà náà kí wọn padà lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ̀gá wọn.”
23 And he prepares great provision for them, and they eat and drink, and he sends them away, and they go to their lord: and troops of Aram have not added to come into the land of Israel anymore.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó pèsè àsè ńlá fún wọn, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n jẹ tí wọ́n mu, ó sì rán wọn lọ, wọ́n sì padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ̀gá wọn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹgbẹ́ láti Aramu dáwọ́ ìgbógunti ilẹ̀ Israẹli dúró.
24 And it comes to pass afterward, that Ben-Hadad king of Aram gathers all his camp, and goes up, and lays siege to Samaria,
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, ni Beni-Hadadi ọba Aramu kó gbogbo àwọn ogun rẹ̀ jọ wọ́n sì yan sókè wọ́n sì dúró ti Samaria.
25 and there is a great famine in Samaria, and behold, they are laying siege to it, until the head of a donkey is at eighty pieces of silver, and a forth of the cab of dove’s dung at five pieces of silver.
Ìyàn ńlá sì mú ní ìlú Samaria; wọ́n dúró tí ì tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí a fi ń ta orí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan ní ọgọ́rùn-ún ìwọ̀n fàdákà àti ìdámẹ́rin òsùwọ̀n kábù imí ẹyẹlé, fún ìwọ̀n fàdákà márùn-ún.
26 And it comes to pass, the king of Israel is passing by on the wall, and a woman has cried to him, saying, “Save, my lord, O king.”
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba Israẹli ti ń kọjá lọ lórí odi, obìnrin kan sọkún sí i pé, “Ràn mí lọ́wọ́, olúwa ọba mi!”
27 And he says, “YHWH does not save you—from where do I save you? Out of the threshing-floor or out of the wine-vat?”
Ọba sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Bí Olúwa kò bá gbà ọ́, níbo ni èmi yóò gbé ti gbà ọ́? Láti inú ilẹ̀ ìpakà, tàbí láti inú ibi ìfúntí?”
28 And the king says to her, “What is [troubling] you?” And she says, “This woman said to me, Give your son, and we eat him today, and we eat my son tomorrow;
Nígbà náà ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ obìnrin náà pé, “Kí ni ó ṣẹlẹ̀?” Obìnrin náà dáhùn pé, “Obìnrin yìí wí fún mi pé, ‘Mú ọmọkùnrin rẹ wá kí àwa kí ó lè jẹ ẹ́ lónìí, ní ọ̀la àwa yóò jẹ ọmọkùnrin tèmi.’
29 and we boil my son and eat him, and I say to her on the next day, Give your son, and we eat him; and she hides her son.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ṣe ọmọkùnrin mi a sì jẹ ẹ́. Ní ọjọ́ kejì mo wí fún un pé, ‘Mú ọmọkùnrin rẹ wá kí àwa kí ó lè jẹ,’ ṣùgbọ́n ó ti gbé e pamọ́.”
30 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the woman, that he tears his garments, and he is passing by on the wall, and the people see, and behold, the sackcloth [is] within on his flesh.
Nígbà tí ọba gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ obìnrin náà, ó fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó sì ti ń kọjá lọ sí orí odi, àwọn ènìyàn wò ó níbẹ̀ ní abẹ́, ó ní aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ ní ara rẹ̀.
31 And he says, “Thus God does to me and thus He adds, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on him this day.”
Ó sì wí pé, “Kí Ọlọ́run kí ó fi ìyà jẹ mí, àti jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ dájúdájú, pé orí ọmọkùnrin Eliṣa ọmọ Ṣafati kì ó wà ní ọrùn rẹ̀ ní òní!”
32 And Elisha is sitting in his house, and the elderly are sitting with him, and [the king] sends a man from before him; before the messenger comes to him, even he himself said to the elderly, “Have you seen that this son of the murderer has sent [him] to turn aside my head? See, at the coming in of the messenger, shut the door, and you have held him fast at the door, is not the sound of the feet of his lord behind him?”
Nísinsin yìí Eliṣa jókòó ní ilé rẹ̀ àwọn àgbàgbà náà jókòó pẹ̀lú rẹ̀. Ọba sì rán oníṣẹ́ síwájú rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó tó dé ibẹ̀, Eliṣa sọ fún àwọn àgbàgbà pé, “Ṣé ẹ̀yin kò rí bí apànìyàn ti ń rán ẹnìkan láti gé orí mi kúrò? Ẹ wò ó, nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ náà bá dé, ẹ ti ìlẹ̀kùn kí ẹ sì dìímú ṣinṣin ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà, ìró ẹsẹ̀ olúwa rẹ̀ kò ha wà lẹ́yìn rẹ?”
33 He is yet speaking with them, and behold, the messenger is coming down to him, and he says, “Behold, this [is] the calamity from YHWH; why do I wait for YHWH anymore?”
Nígbà tí ó sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ sí wọn, ìránṣẹ́ náà sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá bá a. Ọba náà sì wí pé, “Ibi yìí láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa ni. Kí ni ó dé tí èmi yóò fi dúró de Olúwa sí i?”
