2 Kings 7
1 Then said Elisha—Hear ye the word of Yahweh, —Thus, saith Yahweh—About this time to-morrow, a measure of fine meal for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
Epi Élisée te di: “Koute pawòl SENYÈ a. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Demen vè lè sa a, yon mezi farin fen va vann pou yon sik, e de mezi lòj pou yon sik nan pòtay Samarie a.’”
2 Then the officer on whose hand the king leaned responded to the man of God, and said, Even if Yahweh were making windows in the heavens, could this thing, come to pass? And he said—Lo! thou, art about to see it with thine own eyes, but, thereof, shalt thou not eat!
Ofisye wayal la sou men a sila wa a te apiye a te reponn nonm Bondye a. Li te di: “Gade byen, menm si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske bagay sa a ta kab rive?” Konsa, Élisée te reponn: “Gade byen, ou va wè l ak pwòp zye pa w, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
3 Now there were, four men, lepers, at the entrance of the gate, —and they said one to another—Why are, we, sitting here until we are dead?
Alò, te genyen kat mesye lalèp nan antre pòtay la. Yo te di youn ak lòt: “Poukisa n ap chita la jiskaske nou mouri?
4 If we say—Let us enter into the city, Then, the famine, is in the city, and we shall die there, and, if we remain here, then shall we die. Now, therefore, let us fall away unto the camp of the Syrians, if they save us alive, we shall live, and, if they put us to death, we shall die.
Si nou di: ‘N ap antre nan vil la’, alò grangou nan vil la, nou va mouri la. Epi si nou chita isit la, nou va mouri tou. Pou sa, vini, annou janbe lòtbò nan kan Siryen yo. Si yo lese nou viv, nou va viv; epi si yo touye nou, nou p ap gen plis pase mouri.”
5 So they rose up in the twilight, to enter into the camp of the Syrians, —and, when they entered the outskirts of the camp of the Syrians, lo! there was not there, a man.
Konsa, yo te leve avan l fènwa pou ale nan kan Siryen yo, epi gade byen, pa t gen moun la.
6 Now, the Lord, had caused the camp of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, noise of horses, a noise of a great host, —and they said one to another—Lo! the king of Israel hath hired against us—the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come against us.
Paske SENYÈ a te fè lame Siryen an tande bwi a cha yo avèk bwi cheval yo, son a yon gwo lame, jiskaske yo te di youn ak lòt: “Men gade, wa Israël la gen tan mete an sèvis kont nou wa Etyen yo avèk wa Ejipsyen yo pou yo vini sou nou.”
7 So they arose, and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, —the camp, just as it was, —and fled for their lives.
Pou sa, yo te leve kouri pandan tenèb la t ap pwoche e te kite tant yo avèk cheval yo avèk bourik yo ak kan an, jis jan ke li te ye a pou te sove ale e sove lavi yo.
8 When, therefore, these lepers came in as far as the outskirts of the camp, they entered into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried from thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went away and hid them, —and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried from thence—and went and hid them.
Lè moun lalèp sa yo te rive nan landwa kan an, yo te antre nan yon tant pou te manje ak bwè e yo te pote soti la, ajan avèk lò avèk rad pou te ale sere yo. Epi yo te tounen antre nan yon lòt tant pou te pote soti la tou pou te ale sere yo.
9 Then said they one to another—Not a right thing, are, we, doing. This day, is, a day of good tidings, and, we, are holding our peace, if we tarry until the light of the morning, there will come upon us, some misfortune, —Now, therefore, come and let us go in, and tell the household of the king.
Men konsa, yo te pale youn ak lòt: “Nou pa fè byen. Jou sa a se yon jou bòn nouvèl, men nou rete an silans. Si nou tann jis rive maten an, pinisyon va vin rive sou nou. Alò, pou sa, annou ale pale moun lakay wa a.”
10 So they came in and called unto the gate of the city, and told them, saying, We entered into the camp of the Syrians, and lo! there was not there, a man, nor sound of human being, —only horses tied, and asses tied, and their tents, just as they were!
Konsa, yo te antre e yo te rele gadyen pòtay lavil yo pou te pale yo e te di: “Nou te rive nan kan Siryen yo e vwala, pa t gen moun la, ni menm vwa a yon moun, men sèlman cheval ki te mare ak bourik mare e tant yo menm jan yo te ye.”
11 And the watchers of the gate called and told it to the household of the king, within.
Gadyen pòtay yo te rele pale anndan kay wa a.
12 Then arose the king by night, and said unto his servants, Let me tell you, I pray you, what the Syrians have done to us, —they knew that we were, famished, so they have gone forth out of the camp, to hide in the field, saying, When they come forth out of the city, then shall we take them alive, and, into the city, will we enter.
Wa a te leve nan lannwit lan e li te di a sèvitè li yo: “Mwen va pale ou koulye a sa ke Siryen yo gen tan fè. Yo konnen ke nou grangou; pou sa, yo te kite kan an pou kache yo menm nan chan an. Y ap di: ‘Lè yo sòti lavil la, nou va kaptire yo vivan e antre nan vil la.’”
13 Then responded one of his servants, and said—Let there be taken, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which have been left therein, there they are, according to all the multitude of Israel who have been left therein, there they are, according to all the multitude of Israel, who have been consumed, —and let us send and see!
Youn nan sèvitè li yo te di: “Souple, kite kèk moun pran senk nan cheval ki rete lavil la. Gade byen, malgre nenpòt nan yo va menm jan ak tout rès foul moun ki rete ladann nan. Gade byen, yo tankou tout foul ki gen tan peri deja. Pou sa, annou voye gade.”
14 So they took two chariots and horses, —and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see!
Konsa, yo te pran de cha avèk cheval e wa a te voye yo dèyè lame Siryen an, e te di: “Ale gade.”
15 And they followed them as far as the Jordan, and lo! all the way, was full of garments, and utensils, which the Syrians had cast away in their fright, —and the messengers returned, and told the king.
Yo te ale dèyè yo jis rive nan Jourdain an, e gade, tout chemen an te ranpli avèk rad ak ekipaj ke Siryen yo te jete nan sove ale. Alò, mesaje yo te retounen pou te pale wa a.
16 Then went the people forth and spoiled the camp of the Syrians, —and so there came to be—a measure of fine meal for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of Yahweh.
Konsa, pèp la te sòti e te piyaje kan Siryen an. Alò, yon mezi farin fen te vann pou yon sik e de mezi lòj pou yon sik, selon pawòl SENYÈ a.
17 Now, the king, had set the officer on whose hand he leaned, in charge over the gate, and the people trode upon him in the gate, that he died, —as spake the man of God, who said it when the messenger came down to him.
Alò, wa a te chwazi menm ofisye wayal la, sou men a sila li te konn apiye a, pou pran chaj pòtay la; men pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la e li te vin mouri jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a, ki t ap pale pandan wa a te vin desann kote l la.
18 Yea it came to pass, as the man of God had spoken unto the messenger, saying, —Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine meal for a shekel, shall there be about this time to-morrow, in the gate of Samaria:
Li te vin rive jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a wa a, lè l te di: “De mezi lòj pou yon sik e yon mezi farin fen pou yon sik, va vann demen vè lè sa a nan pòtay Samarie.”
19 And when the officer responded to the man of God, and said, Lo! then, if Yahweh were making windows in the heavens, could it be according to this word? And he said, —Lo! thou art about to see it with thine own eyes, but, thereof, shalt thou not eat.
Epi ofisye wayal la te reponn nonm Bondye a e te di: “Alò gade byen, Si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske yon bagay konsa ta kab rive?” Epi li te di: “Gade byen, ou va wè li avèk pwòp zye pa ou, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
20 Yea it fell out to him, thus, —and the people trode upon him in the gate, that he died.
Epi se konsa sa te vin rive li, paske pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la, e li te vin mouri.
