2 Kings 3
1 Now in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Joram son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria; he reigned twelve years.
In yac aksingoul oalkosr ke pacl in leum lal Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah, Joram wen natul Ahab, el tokosrala lun Israel, ac el leum in Samaria ke yac singoul luo.
2 He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, but not like his father and his mother; for he removed the sacred stone pillar of Baal that his father had made.
El oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, tuh tia oana lupan koluk lun papa tumal ku Jezebel, nina kial. El kunausla ma sruloala ma papa tumal ah orala mwe alu nu sel Baal.
3 Nevertheless he held on to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin; he did not turn away from them.
Tusruktu el oapana Tokosra Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su tokosra meet lukel — el tiana tui in kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab bred sheep. He had to give to the king of Israel 100,000 lambs and the wool of 100,000 rams.
Tokosra Mesha lun Moab el tohf sheep, ac ke yac nukewa el ac supu siofok tausin sheep fusr ac oayapa unen sheep matu tausin siofok nu sin tokosra lun Israel tuh in mwe takma lal nu sel.
5 But after Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Tusruktu ke Tokosra Ahab lun Israel el misa, Tokosra Mesha el tuyak lain acn Israel.
6 So King Joram left Samaria at that time to mobilize all Israel for war.
In pacl sacna, Tokosra Joram el som liki acn Samaria, ac orani un mwet mweun nukewa lal.
7 He sent a message to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me against Moab to battle?” Jehoshaphat replied, “I will go. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
El supwala kas nu sel Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah ac fahk, “Tokosra lun acn Moab el tuyak lainyu. Kom ku in tuku wiyu mweun lainul?” Tokosra Jehoshaphat el topuk, “Aok, nga ac wi kom! Nga filiyuwot nu sum, oayapa mwet luk ac horse nutik.
8 Then he said, “By which way should we attack?” Jehoshaphat answered, “By way of the wilderness of Edom.”
Kut ac ut ya nu ke mweun uh?” Joram el topuk, “Kut ac ut ke inkanek loeloes, fahla sasla acn turangang uten acn Edom.”
9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. They wandered around for seven days, and then there was no water for the army or for the animals that followed them.
Ouinge Tokosra Joram ac tokosra lun Judah ac Edom elos mukuiyak. Tukun elos fahsr len itkosr, lisr kof ah, na wangin ma nimen mwet uh oayapa kosro in utuk natulos.
10 So the king of Israel said, “What is this? Has Yahweh called three kings to give them into the hand of Moab?”
Tokosra Joram el fahk, “Kut ac lalna! LEUM GOD El asang tokosra tolu inge nu inpoun tokosra lun Moab!”
11 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, that we may consult Yahweh by him?” One of the king of Israel's servants answered and said, “Elisha son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”
Tokosra Jehoshaphat el siyuk, “Ku oasr sie mwet palu inge ma ac ku in tafwekut ac lolngok nu sin LEUM GOD?” Sie sin mwet leum lun mwet mweun lal Tokosra Joram el topuk, “Elisha wen natul Shaphat el oasr inge. El tuh mwet kasru lal Elijah.”
12 Jehoshaphat said, “The word of Yahweh is with him.” So the king of Israel, Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom went down to him.
Tokosra Jehoshaphat el fahk, “El mwet palu na pwaye se.” Ouinge tokosra tolu ah som nu yorol Elisha.
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and mother.” So the king of Israel said to him, “No, because Yahweh has called these three kings together to give them into the hand of Moab.”
Elisha el fahk nu sel tokosra lun Israel, “Efu ku ngan kasrekom? Fahla lolngok sin mwet palu ma papa tomom ac nina kiom ah muta lolngok nu se ah.” Joram el topuk, “Mo. LEUM GOD pa eiskutyang, tokosra tolu inge, nu inpoun tokosra lun acn Moab uh.”
14 Elisha replied, “As Yahweh of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely were it not for the fact that I honor the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not pay any attention to you, or even look at you.
Elisha el topuk, “Inen LEUM GOD moul su nga kulansupu, nga fulahk lah nga lukun tiana kasrekom nga funu tia akfulatyal Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah, su wi kom ingan.
15 But now bring me a musician.” Then it came to pass when the harpist played, the hand of Yahweh came upon Elisha.
Inge, sap sie mwet orek on an in tuku nu yuruk.” Ke mwet sac srital ke harp natul ah, na ku lun LEUM GOD tuku nu facl Elisha.
16 He said, “Yahweh says this, 'Make this dry river valley full of trenches.'
Na Elisha el fahk, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Pukanak laf pukanten yen nukewa ke infacl soko ma paola inge.
17 For Yahweh says this, 'You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, but this river valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, you and your livestock and all your animals.'
Kowos finne tia liye af ku eng, a infacl soko inge ac sessesla ke kof, na kowos, ac kosro nutuwos nukewa, ac fah mut ke kof.’”
18 This is an easy thing in the sight of Yahweh. He will also give you victory over the Moabites.
Ac Elisha el sifilpa fahk, “Tuh ma inge ma na fisrasr sin LEUM GOD in oru. El ac fah oayapa sot tuh kowos in kutangla mwet Moab.
19 You will attack every fortified city and every good city, cut down every good tree, stop up all springs of water, and ruin every good piece of land with rocks.”
Kowos fah kutangla fin siti oasku nukewa lalos ma potiyukla. Ac kowos fah pakiya sak nukewa sunalos ma oasr fahko, ac fonosya unon in kof nukewa lalos, ac kunausla acn in ima nukewa lalos ma infohk uh wo nu ke yok uh, ke kowos nwakla ke eot.”
20 So in the morning about the time of offering the sacrifice, there came water from the direction of Edom; the country was filled with water.
Lotu se tok ah, ke pacl in kisa in lotutang, kof uh sororma layen nu Edom me, ac afunla infohk uh.
21 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, and they stood at the border.
Ke mwet Moab elos lohngak lah tokosra tolu ah tuku in mweunelos, mukul nukewa ma ku in utuk mwe mweun, sin mwet matu emeet nwe ke mwet fusr emeet, elos pangonyukeni in som tu ke masrol uh.
22 They awakened early in the morning and the sun reflected on the water. When the Moabites saw the water opposite them, it looked as red as blood.
Ke elos tukakek ke lotu se tok ah faht ah sreya fin kof ah, oru kof uh srusrala oana srah.
23 They exclaimed, “This is blood! The kings have certainly been destroyed, and they have killed each other! So now, Moab, let us go plunder them!”
Elos lut ac fahk, “Srah pa ngi! Kalem lah mwet mweun lun u tolu ah forani aacnwuki nwe sifacna onelosi. Kut som tella ma lalos liki nien aktuktuk lalos uh!”
24 When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites surprised them and attacked the Moabites, who fled before them. The army of Israel drove the Moabites across the land, killing them.
Tusruktu ke elos sun nien aktuktuk lun mwet Israel ah, mwet Israel elos sroang mweunelos ac folokunulosla. Mwet Israel elos ukwe na mwet Moab nwe onelosla,
25 They destroyed the cities, and on every good piece of land every man threw a rock until it was covered up. They stopped up every spring of water and chopped down all the good trees. Only Kir Hareseth was left with its rocks in place. But the soldiers armed with slings surrounded and attacked it.
ac kunausla siti selos. Ke mwet Israel inge ac fahsr ke acn in ima wowo uh, kais sie selos ac srukak eot se ac sisang nu ke ima sac, nwe ke na eot ah afunla ima nukewa. Elos oayapa fonosya unon in kof uh, ac pakiya sak oasr fahko kac. Fahsr nwe siti sefanna lula, siti fulat selos su pangpang Kir Heres, na mwet utuk fuht elos kuhlasla ac mweuni.
26 When King Mesha of Moab saw that the battle was lost, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed.
Ke pacl se tokosra lun acn Moab ah akilenak lah ac kutangyukla el, na el us mwet itfoko su mwet mweun ke cutlass in welul, ac el srike na elan sasla inmasrlon mwet lokoalok inge ac kaingla nu yurin tokosra lun Syria, tuh el tiana orala.
27 Then he took his oldest son, who should have reigned after him, and offered him as a burnt offering upon the wall. So there was great anger against Israel, and the Israelite army left King Mesha and returned to their own land.
Ouinge el eis mukul matu se natul su ac aolul in tokosra, ac kisakunulla fin pot lun siti sac nu sin god lun acn Moab. Mwet Israel elos arulana rarla kac, na elos foloki liki siti sac ac folokla nu facl selos.
