2 Kings 4
1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead: and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two children to be bondmen.
Mwasi moko kati na basi ya bayekoli ya basakoli abondelaki Elize: — Mosali na yo, mobali na ngai, akufa. Oyebi malamu ete azalaki kotosa Yawe. Kasi moto oyo adefisaki ye niongo ayei mpo na kozwa bana na ngai mibale ya mibali mpo ete bakoma bawumbu na ye.
2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me; what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
Elize azongiselaki ye: — Ndenge nini nakoki kosunga yo? Yebisa ngai eloko oyo ozali na yango kati na ndako na yo. Azongisaki: — Mwasi mowumbu na yo azali na eloko moko te, longola kaka mwa mafuta.
3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.
Elize alobaki: — Kende kosenga na baninga na yo nyonso bambeki ya pamba, kosenga moke te.
4 And thou shalt go in, and shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and pour out into all those vessels; and thou shalt set aside that which is full.
Sima, zonga na ndako na yo, kanga ekuke sima na yo elongo na bana na yo ya mibali; sopa mafuta kati na mbeki moko na moko, mpe tia pembeni mbeki oyo etondi.
5 So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons; they brought [the vessels] to her, and she poured out.
Atikaki Elize mpe akangaki ekuke sima na ye elongo na bana na ye ya mibali. Bana na ye bazalaki kopesa ye bambeki, mpe azalaki kotondisa yango na mafuta.
6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
Tango bambeki nyonso etondaki, alobaki na moko kati na bana na ye ya mibali: — Pesa ngai lisusu mbeki moko. Kasi mwana yango azongiselaki ye: — Bambeki nyonso esili. Kaka na tango yango, mafuta etikaki kobima.
7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy sons of the rest.
Mwasi yango akendeki koyebisa moto na Nzambe. Mpe moto na Nzambe alobaki na ye: — Kende, teka mafuta yango mpe futa niongo na yo; bongo, yo elongo na bana na yo ya mibali, bokobika na oyo ekotikala.
8 And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
Mokolo moko, Elize akendeki na Sunemi. Mpe kuna, mwasi moko ya bomengo atungisaki ye mpo na kosenga na ye ete andima kolia na ndako na ye. Boye, tango nyonso Elize azalaki kolekela na Sunami, azalaki kotelema na ndako ya mwasi yango mpo na kolia.
9 And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.
Mwasi yango alobaki na mobali na ye: « Nayebi ete moto oyo ayaka mbala mingi epai na biso azali mobulami ya Nzambe.
10 Let us make, I pray thee, a little chamber on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.
Nabondeli yo, tika ete tobongisela ye shambre ya moke na likolo ya ndako mpe totia kati na yango mbeto, mesa, kiti mpe mwinda. Boye, tango nyonso akoya epai na biso, akoki kovanda kuna. »
11 And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber and lay there.
Mokolo moko, Elize ayaki na Sunami, amataki na shambre na ye mpe alalaki kuna.
12 And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.
Bongo alobaki na mosali na ye, Geazi: « Benga mwasi oyo ya Sunami. » Geazi abengaki mwasi ya Sunami, mpe mwasi yango ayaki kotelema liboso ya Elize.
13 And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people.
Elize alobaki na Geazi: — Loba na ye: « Omitungisi mingi mpo na biso. Eloko nini tokoki sik’oyo kosalela yo? Tolobela yo epai ya mokonzi to epai ya mokonzi ya basoda? » Mwasi ya Sunami azongisaki: — Navandaka na kimia kati na bato na ngai.
14 And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no son, and her husband is old.
Elize atunaki mosali na ye, Geazi: — Eloko nini tokoki kosala mpo na ye? Geazi azongisaki: — Azali na mwana te, mpe mobali na ye azali mobange.
15 And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.
Elize alobaki: — Benga ye! Geazi abengaki ye, mpe ayaki kotelema na ekuke.
16 And he said, At this season, when the time cometh round, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
Elize alobaki: — Na mobu oyo ekoya, na eleko oyo, maboko na yo ekosimba mwana mobali. Mwasi ya Sunami agangaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai, moto na Nzambe, kopesa na ngai mwasi mosali na yo elikya ya lokuta te!
17 And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season, when the time came round, as Elisha had said unto her.
Nzokande, mwasi ya Sunami akomaki na zemi. Mpe na mobu oyo elandaki, na eleko yango kaka, abotaki mwana mobali, ndenge kaka Elize alobaki na ye.
18 And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
Mwana akolaki. Mokolo moko, mwana akendeki epai ya tata na ye, oyo azalaki elongo na babuki mbuma.
19 And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to his servant, Carry him to his mother.
Alobaki na tata na ye: — Moto pasi! Moto pasi! Tata na ye alobaki na mosali moko: — Zongisa ye epai ya mama na ye!
20 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.
Mosali amemaki ye mpe akomisaki ye epai ya mama na ye. Mwana mobali avandaki na makolo ya mama na ye kino na midi mpe, na sima, akufaki.
21 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut [the door] upon him, and went out.
Mama na ye amataki na shambre ya mosakoli, alalisaki ye na mbeto ya moto na Nzambe, akangaki ekuke mpe abimaki.
22 And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the servants, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.
Bongo abengaki mobali na ye mpe alobaki na ye: — Nabondeli yo, tindela ngai elenge moko kati na basali mpe ane moko ya mwasi, mpo ete nakende noki epai ya moto na Nzambe mpe nazonga mbala moko.
23 And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him today? it is neither new moon nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.
Mobali na ye atunaki: — Mpo na nini olingi kokende epai na ye lelo? Lelo ezali ebandeli ya sanza te! Ezali mpe mokolo ya Saba te! Azongisaki: — Komitungisa te! Nyonso ezali malamu.
24 Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slacken me not the riding, except I bid thee.
Mwasi ya Sunami abongisaki ane mpe alobaki na elenge mosali na ye: « Tokeyi! Tambolisa ane; kotelema na nzela te soki nalobi na yo te. »
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 Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is the Shunammite:
Boye, akendeki mpe akomaki na ngomba Karimeli epai wapi moto na Nzambe azalaki kovanda. Tango Elize amonaki ye na mosika, alobaki na mosali na ye, Geazi: — Tala! Ezali mwasi ya Sunami!
26 run, I pray thee, now to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.
Nabondeli yo, pota mbangu sik’oyo mpo na kokutana na ye, mpe tuna ye: « Boni, kimia ezali? Ozali malamu? Mobali na yo azali malamu? Mwana na yo azali malamu? » Azongisaki: — Nyonso ezali malamu.
27 And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone: for her soul is vexed within her; and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.
Boye akobaki nzela na ye kino akomaki na ngomba, epai ya moto na Nzambe. Mpe amibwakaki na makolo na ye. Geazi apusanaki mpo na kolongola ye na makolo ya Elize, kasi moto na Nzambe alobaki: — Tika ye bongo! Azali na pasi makasi kati na motema na ye, kasi Yawe abombeli ngai yango mpe atalisi ngai te tina na yango.
28 Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?
Mwasi ya Sunami alobaki: — Boni, nasengaki mwana epai ya nkolo na ngai? Te! Kutu, nalobaki na yo: « Kopesa ngai elikya ya lokuta te! »
29 Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.
Elize alobaki na Geazi: — Lata mokaba na yo, kamata nzete na ngai na loboko na yo mpe kende. Soki okutani na moto na nzela, kopesa ye mbote te. Mpe soki moto apesi yo mbote, kozongisa te. Okotia nzete na ngai na elongi ya mwana mobali.
30 And the mother of the child said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.
Kasi mama ya mwana alobaki: — Na Kombo na Yawe mpe na kombo na yo, nakotika yo te. Boye Elize atelemaki mpe alandaki mwasi ya Sunami.
31 And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.
Geazi akendeki liboso na bango mpe atiaki nzete na elongi ya mwana mobali, kasi ata eloko moko te esalemaki, ezala mongongo to koningana. Geazi azongaki mpo na kokutana na Elize mpe alobaki na ye: — Mwana alamuki te.
32 And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.
Tango Elize akomaki na ndako, akutaki ebembe ya mwana mobali elali na mbeto na ye.
33 He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD.
Elize akotaki, amikangelaki na shambre elongo na mwana mobali, mpe asambelaki Yawe.
34 And he went up, and lay 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 waxed warm.
Bongo Elize amataki na mbeto mpe alalelaki mwana mobali, atutisaki monoko na ye na monoko ya mwana, miso na ye na miso ya mwana, mpe maboko na ye na maboko ya mwana. Lokola amitandaki bongo na likolo ya mwana mobali, nzoto ya mwana mobali ekomaki moto.
35 Then he returned, and walked in the house once to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
Elize alongwaki, atambolaki na bangambo nyonso ya shambre; bongo amataki lisusu na mbeto mpe amitandaki na likolo ya mwana. Mbala moko, mwana akosolaki mbala sambo mpe afungolaki miso.
36 And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in onto him, he said, Take up thy son.
Elize abengaki Geazi mpe alobaki na ye: — Benga mwasi ya Sunami! Geazi abengaki ye. Tango ayaki epai ya Elize, Elize alobaki: — Zwa mwana na yo!
37 Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out.
Mwasi ya Sunami apusanaki, akweyaki na makolo ya Elize mpe agumbamaki kino na se; bongo azwaki mwana na ye mpe abimaki.
38 And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.
Elize azongaki na Giligali. Nzokande etuka yango ezalaki kati na nzala makasi. Wana bayekoli ya basakoli bavandaki na mayangani elongo na Elize, alobaki na mosali na ye: « Tia nzungu ya monene na moto mpe lamba elubu mpo na basakoli oyo. »
39 And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not.
Moko kati na bango akendeki na bilanga mpo na kobuka ndunda, mpe amonaki nzete ya vino ya zamba. Abukaki na nzete yango ndambo ya bakolokente mpe atondisaki yango na elamba na ye. Tango azongaki, akataki yango mike-mike mpe atiaki yango kati na nzungu ya elubu; moto moko te ayebaki soki ezali nini.
40 So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.
Bakabolelaki bato elubu. Tango kaka babandaki kolia yango, bagangaki: — Moto na Nzambe, kufa ezali kati na nzungu oyo! Mpe bakokaki lisusu te kolia yango.
41 But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
Elize alobaki: — Bomemela ngai farine! Atiaki farine kati na nzungu mpe alobaki: — Bokabolela yango bato mpo ete balia. Mpe kati na elubu oyo ezalaki kati na nzungu, ezalaki lisusu na eloko moko te ya mabe.
42 And there came a man from Baal-shalishah, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of corn in his sack. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat.
Moto moko awutaki na Bala-Shalisha, amemelaki moto na Nzambe mapa tuku mibale ya orje oyo ewutaki na bambuma ya liboso ya elanga, elongo na saki moko ya bambuma ya ble. Elize alobaki na mosali na ye: — Pesa yango na bato mpo ete balia!
43 And his servant said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? But he said, Give the people, that they may eat; for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof.
Mosali na ye atunaki: — Nakokoka ndenge nini kokabola mapa oyo na bato nkama moko? Elize alobaki lisusu: — Kabolela yango bato nyonso mpo ete balia, pamba te tala Liloba oyo Yawe alobi: « Bakolia, bakotonda mpe bakotika mosusu. »
44 So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of the LORD.
Boye mosali akabolelaki bango mapa yango. Baliaki mpe batikaki mosusu, kolanda Liloba na Yawe.
