< 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.
Fa hoy kosa Elisa: Mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah ianareo: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Rahampitso toy izao dia ho sekely iray ny vidin’ ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana, ary ho sekely iray koa ny vidin’ ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana ao am-bavahadin’ i Samaria.
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!
Fa namaly ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ilay mpanafika malaza izay nitehenan’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny tànany ka nanao hoe: Indro, na dia hanao varavarankely amin’ ny lanitra aza Jehovah, dia hisy izany zavatra izany va? Ary hoy Elisa: Indro, ho hitan’ ny masonao indrindra izany, nefa tsy mba hihinananao.
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?
Ary nisy boka efa-dahy teo anoloan’ ny vavahady nifampiresaka hoe: Ahoana no ipetrahantsika foana eto mandra-pahafatintsika?
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.
Raha hoy isika: Hankato an-tanàna isika, dia misy mosary ao an-tanàna, ka ho faty ao isika; ary raha hipetraka eto isika, dia ho faty ihany koa. Koa andeha isika hankany amin-ny tobin’ ny Syriana; ka raha mamelona antsika moa izy, dia ho velona isika; fa raha mamono antsika kosa izy, dia ho faty ihany isika.
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.
Dia niainga izy rehefa takariva hankany amin’ ny tobin’ ny Syriana; ary nony tonga teny an-tsisin’ ny toby izy, indro, tsy nisy olona akory tao.
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.
Fa Jehovah efa nampandre ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana ny fikodiadian-kalesy sy ny fandehan’ ny soavaly, dia ny firodondrodon’ ny miaramila be; ary niresaka hoe izy: Injao, fa ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely efa nanamby ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Egyptiana hiady amintsika.
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.
Dia niainga izy ka riatra nandositra tamin’ iny takariva iny ihany, ary nilaozany fotsiny ny tobiny, dia ny lainy sy ny soavaliny ary ny borikiny, ka lasa nandositra hamonjy ny ainy izy.
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.
Ary rehefa tonga teny an-tsisin’ ny toby ireo boka ireo, dia niditra tao amin’ ny lay anankiray Izy ka nihinana sy nisotro, dia naka volafotsy sy volamena ary fitafiana, dia nandeha ka nanafina izany; ary nandeha indray izy ka niditra tao amin’ ny lay anankiray koa sady naka avy tao, dia nandeha ka nanafina izany koa.
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.
Dia nifampilaza hoe izy: Tsy mety izao ataontsika izao; ity andro ity dia andro filazana ny mahafaly, nefa mangìna isika; raha hitoetra eto mandra-pahamarain’ ny andro isika, dia hanan-keloka; fa andeha isika hilaza ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
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!
Dia avy izy ka niantso ny mpiambina ny vavahadin-tanàna ary nilaza taminy hoe: Tonga tany an-tobin’ ny Syriana izahay, ary indro fa tsy misy olona ao, na feon’ olona akory aza, fa soavaly mifatotra sy boriky mifatotra, ary ny lay nilaozana fotsiny.
11 And the watchers of the gate called and told it to the household of the king, within.
Ary niantso ny mpiambina ny vavahady izy, ary ireo kosa nilaza izany tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
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.
Ary ny mpanjaka nifoha raha mbola alina ka niteny tamin’ ny mpanompony hoe: Aoka hambarako aminareo ange izao ataon’ ny Syriana amintsika izao e! Fantany fa mosarena isika, ka dia niala tamin’ ny toby izy mba hanotrika any an-tsaha ka nanao hoe: Raha mivoaka avy any an-tanàna izy dia hataontsika sambo-belona, ary dia hidirantsika ny tanàna.
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!
Ary ny mpanompony anankiray namaly hoe: Mifona aminao aho, aoka hangalana soavaly dimy amin’ izay sisa ato an-tanàna (indro toy ny hamaroan’ ny Isiraely rehetra izay mitoetra ato ireo; eny, tahaka ny hamaroan’ ny Isiraely rehetra izay efa lany ritra ireo) ka haniraka hizaha izany.
14 So they took two chariots and horses, —and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see!
Dia nalainy ny soavalin’ ny kalesy roa; ary ny mpanjaka naniraka hanaraka ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana ka nanao hoe: Mandehana, ka izahao.
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.
Dia nandeha nanaraka azy hatrany Jordana ireo; ary, indreny, ny lalambe rehetra feno fitafiana sy fanaka izay efa narian’ ny Syriana, raha nandositra tamin’ ny fahatairana izy. Ary ny iraka niverina ka nilaza tamin’ ny mpanjaka.
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.
Dia nivoaka ny olona ka namabo ny tobin’ ny Syriana. Koa ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana, dia sekely iray monja no vidiny, ary ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana, dia sekely iray ihany koa ny vidiny, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
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.
Ary ilay mpanafika malaza izay nitehenan’ ny mpanjaka tamin’ ny tànany dia notendreny hiambina ny vavahady; ary voahitsaka teo am-bavahady izy, ka dia maty araka izay nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, dia ilay nolazainy, raha nidina tany aminy ny mpanjaka.
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:
Koa dia tanteraka ilay teny nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra tamin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Raha, maraina toy izao ao am-bavahadin’ i Samaria dia sekely iray monja no ho vidin’ ny vary hordea indroan’ ny famarana, ary ho sekely iray ihany koa ny vidin’ ny koba tsara toto eran’ ny famarana;
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.
ka izany mpanafika malaza izany no namaly ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra hoe: Indro, na dia hanao varavarankely amin’ ny lanitra aza Jehovah, dia hisy izany zavatra izany va? Fa hoy Elisa: Indro, ho hitan’ ny masonao indrindra izany, fa tsy mba hihinananao.
20 Yea it fell out to him, thus, —and the people trode upon him in the gate, that he died.
Ary dia toy izany no nanjo azy, fa ny olona nanitsaka azy teo am-bavahady, ka dia maty izy.
