2 Kings 8
1 After Elisha caused the son of the woman from Shunem [town] to become alive again, he told her that she should leave with her family and live somewhere else for a while, because Yahweh was going to (send a famine/cause food to become very scarce) in the land. He said that the famine would last for seven years.
Nísinsin yìí, Eliṣa wí fún obìnrin náà tí ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin jí padà sáyé pé, “Jáde lọ pẹ̀lú ìdílé rẹ kí o sì lọ dúró fún ìgbà díẹ̀ ní ibikíbi tí o bá le dúró sí, nítorí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ ìyàn ní ìlú tí yóò lò tó ọdún méje.”
2 So the woman did what Elisha told her to do. She and her family went to live in [the] Philistia [region] for seven years.
Obìnrin náà tẹ̀síwájú gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ti sọ. Òun àti ìdílé rẹ̀ sí lọ, wọ́n sì ṣe àtìpó ní ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Filistini fún ọdún méje.
3 After the seven years were ended, they returned to their home. The woman went to the king to request that her house and her land be given back to her.
Ní ẹ̀yìn ọdún méje ó sì padà wá láti ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Filistini ó sì lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba láti lọ bẹ̀ ẹ́ fún ilé àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
4 When she arrived, the king was talking with Gehazi, Elisha’s servant. The king was saying to him, “Tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.”
Ọba sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ sí Gehasi, ìránṣẹ́ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run pé, “Sọ fún mi nípa gbogbo ohun ńlá tí Eliṣa ti ṣe.”
5 While Gehazi was telling the king that Elisha had caused the son of a woman [from Shunem] to become alive again, that woman came in and requested the king to enable her to get her house and land back again. Gehazi exclaimed, “Your Majesty, this is the woman whose son Elisha caused to become alive again!”
Bí Gehasi ti ń sọ bí tí Eliṣa ṣe jí òkú di alààyè, obìnrin náà tí ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tí Eliṣa ti dá padà sí ayé wá láti bẹ ọba fún ilé àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀. Gehasi sì wí pé, “Obìnrin náà nìyìí olúwa mi ọba, ọmọkùnrin rẹ náà nìyí tí Eliṣa ti jí dìde sí ayé.”
6 When the king asked her about it, she told him [that what Gehazi had said was true]. The king summoned one of his officials and said to him, “[I want] everything that this woman possessed previously, including the value of all the crops that have been harvested during these last seven years while she was away from her land, [to] be given back to her.” [So the official did that].
Ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ obìnrin náà nípa rẹ̀, ó sì sọ fún un. Ó sì yan ìjòyè kan fún ún fún ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ẹ fún un padà gbogbo ohun tí ó bá jẹ́ tirẹ̀, àti pẹ̀lú gbogbo èrè ilé rẹ̀ fún ún láti ọjọ́ tí ó ti kúrò ní ìlú títí di àsìkò yìí.”
7 Elisha went to Damascus, [the capital of Syria], when Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, was [very] sick. When someone told the king that Elisha was in Damascus,
Eliṣa lọ sí Damasku, Beni-Hadadi ọba Siria ń ṣe àìsàn. Nígbà tí wọ́n sọ fún ọba pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ti wá láti gbogbo ọ̀nà òkè síbí,”
8 the king told [one of his officials named] Hazael, “Go and talk to that prophet and take a present/gift with you to give to him. Request him to ask Yahweh if I will recover from my illness.”
ọba sì wí fún Hasaeli pé, “Mú ọrẹ lọ́wọ́ rẹ, sì lọ pàdé ènìyàn Ọlọ́run. Kí o sì béèrè Olúwa láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé ṣé èmi yóò sàn nínú àìsàn yìí?”
9 So Hazael went to talk with Elisha. He took with him forty camels that were carrying many kinds of goods that were produced in Damascus. When Hazael met him, he said to him, “Your friend Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, sent me to ask you whether [you think] he will recover from his illness.”
Hasaeli lọ láti pàdé Eliṣa, ó mú lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ẹ̀bùn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ogójì ẹrù ìbákasẹ tí gbogbo ìní tí ó dára jù fún wíwò ti Damasku, ó sì wọlé lọ ó sì dúró níwájú rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Ọmọ rẹ Beni-Hadadi ọba Siria rán mi láti béèrè pé, ‘Ṣé èmi yóò sàn nínú àìsàn mi yìí?’”
10 Elisha said to Hazael, “Go and say to him, ‘Yes, you will certainly not die from this illness,’ but Yahweh has shown me that he will certainly die [before he recovers].”
Eliṣa da á lóhùn pé, “Lọ kí o lọ sọ fún un pé, ‘Ìwo ìbá sàn nítòótọ́’; ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ti fihàn mí pé nítòótọ́ òun yóò kùú.”
11 Then Elisha stared at him and had a terrified look on his face. That caused Hazael to feel uneasy/embarrassed. Then [suddenly] Elisha started to cry.
Ó sì ranjú mọ́ ọn pẹ̀lú àtẹjúmọ́ gidigidi títí tí ojú fi ti Hasaeli. Nígbà náà ènìyàn Ọlọ́run bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọkún.
12 Hazael said, “Sir, why are you crying?” Elisha replied, “Because [Yahweh has enabled] me [to] know the terrible things that you will do to the people of Israel: You will burn their cities with walls around them, you will kill their fine young men with a sword, you will bash the heads of their children, and you will rip open the bellies of their pregnant women [with a sword].”
“Kí ni ó dé tí olúwa mi fi ń sọkún?” Hasaeli béèrè. “Nítorí pé èmi mọ ibi tí ìwọ yóò ṣe sí Israẹli,” ó sì dáhùn pé, “Ìwọ yóò fi iná si odi agbára wọn, ìwọ yóò, pa àwọn ọ̀dọ́ ọmọkùnrin wọn pẹ̀lú idà, ìwọ yóò kọlù àwọn ọmọ wẹ́wẹ́ wọn, ìwọ ó sì fọ́ wọn túútúú, ìwọ o sì la inú àwọn aboyún wọn.”
13 Hazael replied, “I am [as insignificant as] [MET] a dog; (how could I do such things?/I would never do such terrible things!)” [RHQ] Elisha replied, “Yahweh has also revealed to me that you will become the king of Syria.”
Hasaeli sì wí pé. “Báwo ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ajá lásán làsàn yóò ṣe ṣe irú nǹkan ńlá bẹ́ẹ̀?” “Olúwa ti fihàn mí pé ìwọ ni yóò jẹ ọba Siria,” Eliṣa dá a lóhùn.
14 Then Hazael left and returned to his master/boss [the king], who asked him, “What did Elisha say?” He replied, “He told me that you would certainly recover.”
Nígbà náà Hasaeli fi Eliṣa sílẹ̀ ó sì padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ̀gá rẹ̀. Nígbà tí Beni-Hadadi béèrè, “Kí ni ohun tí Eliṣa sọ fún ọ?” Hasaeli dá a lóhùn, “Ó sọ fún mi wí pé ìwọ yóò sàn nítòótọ́.”
15 But the next day, [while the king was sleeping, ] Hazael took a blanket and soaked it in water. Then he spread it on the king’s face [in order that he could not breathe], and he died. Then Hazael became the king of Syria instead of Ben-Hadad.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọjọ́ kejì ó mú aṣọ tí ó nípọn, ó sì kì í bọ inú omi ó sì tẹ̀ ẹ́ sí ojú ọba, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì kú. Nígbà náà Hasaeli sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
16 After King Joram, the son of Ahab, had been ruling in Israel for almost five years, Jehoshaphat’s son Jehoram became the king of Judah.
Ní ọdún karùn-ún ti Joramu ọmọ Ahabu ọba Israẹli, nígbà tí Jehoṣafati jẹ́ ọba Juda, Jehoramu ọmọ Jehoṣafati bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba Juda.
17 He was thirty-two years old when he became the king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eight years.
Ó jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́jọ.
18 His wife was the daughter of King Ahab. And like everyone in Ahab’s family, he continually did the evil things that the previous kings of Israel had done. He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil.
Ó sì rìn ní ọ̀nà ọba Israẹli, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé Ahabu ti lọ, nítorí ó fẹ́ ọmọbìnrin Ahabu ó sì ṣe ohun búburú níwájú Olúwa.
19 But Yahweh did not want to get rid of the people of Judah, because of what he had promised David, who served him [very well]. He had promised David that his descendants [MET] would always rule Judah.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé, nítorí ti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Dafidi. Olúwa kò fẹ́ pa Juda run, ó ti ṣèlérí láti ṣètọ́jú ìmọ́lẹ̀ fún Dafidi àti àwọn ilé rẹ̀ títí láéláé.
20 During the time that Jehoram ruled, [the king of] Edom rebelled against Judah, and they appointed their own king.
Ní àkókò Jehoramu, Edomu ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Juda, wọ́n sì gbé ọba tiwọn kalẹ̀.
21 So Jehoram went with his army and all their chariots to Zair [city near the border of Edom]. There the army of Edom surrounded them. But during the night, Jehoram and the commanders in their chariots were able to get through the enemy lines and escaped. And all his soldiers also fled to their homes.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehoramu lọ sí Sairi pẹ̀lú gbogbo kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀. Àwọn ará Edomu sì yí i ká àti kẹ̀kẹ́ àwọn olórí wọn, ṣùgbọ́n ó dìde dúró ní òru; àwọn ogun rẹ̀ síbẹ̀síbẹ̀, sá padà lọ ilé.
22 So after that, Edom was no longer controlled by Judah, and it is still like that. During that same time, the people of Libnah [city] also freed themselves from being controlled by Judah.
Títí ó fi di òní, Edomu wà nínú ọ̀tẹ̀ lórí Juda, Libina ṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní àkókò kan náà.
23 [If you want to read about] the other things that Jehoram did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí fún iṣẹ́ mìíràn ti ìjọba Jehoramu, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Juda?
24 Jehoram died [EUP] and was buried where the other kings of Judah had been buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then Jehoram’s son Ahaziah became the king.
Jehoramu sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú wọn ní ìlú Dafidi, Ahasiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
25 After Ahab’s son Joram has been ruling in Israel for almost twelve years, Jehoram’s son Ahaziah became the king of Judah.
Ní ọdún méjìlá Joramu ọmọkùnrin Ahabu ọba Israẹli, Ahasiah ọmọkùnrin Jehoramu ọba Juda bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba rẹ̀.
26 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he started to rule. He ruled in Jerusalem for [only] one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, [the daughter of King Ahab and] the granddaughter of King Omri of Israel.
Ahasiah jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìlélógún nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba ní ọdún kan ní Jerusalẹmu. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a sì máa jẹ́ Ataliah, ọmọbìnrin Omri ọba Israẹli.
27 King Ahab conducted his life just like the members of Ahab’s family had done. He did things that Yahweh considered to be very evil.
Nígbà tí ó rin ọ̀nà ilé Ahabu ó sì ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé Ahabu ti ṣe, nítorí ó tan nípa ìgbéyàwó sí ìdílé Ahabu.
28 Ahaziah’s army joined the army of King Joram of Israel to fight against the army of King Hazael of Syria. Their armies started fighting at Ramoth [city] in [the] Gilead [region], and the soldiers of Syria wounded Joram.
Ahasiah sì lọ pẹ̀lú Joramu ọmọ Ahabu lọ sí ogun lórí Hasaeli ọba Aramu ní Ramoti Gileadi. Àwọn ará Siria ṣẹ́ Joramu lẹ́sẹ̀.
29 King Joram returned to Jezreel [city] to recover from his wounds. King Ahaziah went to visit him there.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Joramu padà sí Jesreeli láti wo ọgbẹ́ rẹ̀ sàn tí ará Siria ti jẹ ní yà lórí rẹ̀ ní Ramoti ní ojú ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Hasaeli ọba Aramu. Nígbà náà Ahasiah ọmọ Jehoramu ọba Juda sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Jesreeli láti lọ wo Joramu ọmọ Ahabu nítorí tí ó fi ara pa.
