2 Kings 6
1 The sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “The place where we live with you is too small for us all.
Alò fis a pwofèt yo te di a Élisée: “Gade byen, plas devan ou kote nou rete a twò piti pou nou.
2 Please let us go to the Jordan, and let every man cut down a tree there, and let us build us a place there where we may live.” Elisha answered, “You may go ahead.”
Souple, annou ale nan Jourdain an e chak nan nou pran soti la yon poto epi annou fè yon plas pou pwòp tèt nou kote nou kab rete a.” Li te reponn: “Ale.”
3 One of them said, “Please go with your servants.” Elisha answered, “I will go.”
Alò youn nan yo te di: “Souple, fè dakò pou ale avèk sèvitè nou yo.” Li te reponn: “M ap prale.”
4 So he went with them, and when they came to the Jordan, they began to cut down trees.
Konsa, li te ale avèk yo. Lè yo rive kote Jourdain an, yo te koupe bwa yo.
5 But as one was chopping, the ax head fell into the water; he cried out and said, “Oh no, my master, it was borrowed!”
Men pandan youn nan yo t ap fè tonbe yon poto, tèt rach la te tonbe nan dlo. Nom nan te kriye fò e te di: “Anmwey, mèt mwen! Paske se prete li te ye!”
6 So the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” The man showed Elisha the place. He then cut off a stick, threw it in the water, and made the iron float.
Epi nonm Bondye a te di: “Se kibò li te tonbe?” Epi lè li te montre li kote a, li te koupe yon bout bwa, e li te voye ladann pou te fè fè a vin monte sou dlo a.
7 Elisha said, “Pick it up.” So the man reached out his hand and grabbed it.
Li te di: “Ranmase l pou kont ou.” Konsa, li te lonje men li pou te pran l.
8 Now the king of Aram was waging war against Israel. He consulted with his servants, saying, “My camp will be in such and such a place.”
Alò, wa Syrie a te fè lagè kont Israël, epi li te konsilte avèk sèvitè li yo. Li te di: “Antre tèl kote ak tèl kote, ki kote nou va fè kan an.”
9 So the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, “Be careful not to pass that place, for the Arameans are going down there.”
Nonm Bondye a te voye kote wa Israël la. Li te di: “Veye pou ou pa pase nan kote sila a, paske Siryen yo ap desann la.”
10 The king of Israel sent a message to the place about which the man of God had spoken and warned him. More than once or twice, when the king went there, he was on his guard.
Wa Israël la te voye nan plas kote nonm Bondye a te pale li a pou avèti l. Konsa, plis ke yon fwa oswa de fwa, li te sove li plizyè fwa.
11 The king of Aram was enraged about these warnings, and he called his servants and said to them, “Will you not tell me who among us is for the king of Israel?”
Alò, kè a wa Syrie a te anraje sou afè sa a. Li te rele sèvitè li yo e te di yo: “Èske ou va di mwen kilès nan nou ki pou wa Israël la?”
12 So one of his servants said, “No, my master, king, for Elisha the prophet in Israel tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your own bedroom!”
Youn nan sèvitè li yo te di: “Non, mèt mwen, O wa a; men Élisée, pwofèt ki an Israël la ap pale wa Israël la pawòl ke ou pale menm nan chanm dòmi ou.”
13 The king replied, “Go and see where Elisha is so I may send men and capture him.” It was told him, “See, he is in Dothan.”
Konsa, li te di: “Ale wè kote li ye a pou m kab voye pran l.” Epi yo te pale li, e te di: “Gade, li Dothan.”
14 So the king sent to Dothan horses, chariots, and a large army. They came by night and surrounded the city.
Li te voye cheval avèk cha avèk yon gwo lame la. Yo te vini pandan lannwit e te antoure vil la.
15 When the servant of the man of God had risen early and gone outside, behold, a large army with horses and chariots surrounded the city. His servant said to him, “Oh, my master! What will we do?”
Alò, lè sèvitè a nonm Bondye a te leve bonè pou te sòti deyò, vwala, yon lame avèk cheval ak cha te antoure vil la. Epi sèvitè li a te di li: “Anmwey, mèt mwen! Kisa n ap fè?”
16 Elisha answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
Konsa, li te reponn: “Pa pè, paske sila ki avèk nou yo plis pase sila ki avèk yo a.”
17 Elisha prayed and said, “Yahweh, I beg that you will open his eyes that he may see.” Then Yahweh opened the servant's eyes, and he saw. Behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha!
Epi Élisée te priye e te di: “O SENYÈ, Mwen priye, ouvri zye li pou li kapab wè.” Epi SENYÈ a te ouvri zye a sèvitè li pou li te wè. Men vwala, tout mòn nan te ranpli avèk cheval avèk cha dife toupatou te antoure Élisée.
18 When the Arameans came down to him, Elisha prayed to Yahweh and said, “Strike these people blind, I ask you.” So Yahweh made them blind, just as Elisha had asked.
Lè yo te desann kote li, Élisée te priye a SENYÈ a e te di: “Mwen priye, frape pèp sa a pou fè yo vin avèg.” Konsa, Li te frape yo pou fè yo vin avèg selon pawòl Élisée a.
19 Then Elisha told the Arameans, “This is not the way, neither is this the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you are looking for.” Then he led them to Samaria.
Konsa, Élisée te di yo: “Sa se pa chemen, ni se pa vil sa a. Swiv mwen e mwen va mennen ou kote nonm ke w ap chache a.” Epi li te mennen yo rive Samarie.
20 It came about that when they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, “Yahweh, open the eyes of these men that they may see.” Yahweh opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the middle of the city of Samaria.
Lè yo te rive Samarie, Élisée te di: “O SENYÈ, ouvri zye a moun sila yo pou yo kapab wè.” Konsa, SENYÈ a te ouvri zye yo pou yo te wè; epi vwala, yo te nan mitan Samarie.
21 The king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, “My father, should I kill them? Should I kill them?”
Konsa, wa Israël la, lè li te wè yo, li te di Élisée: “Papa mwen, èske m dwe touye yo? Èske m dwe touye yo?”
22 Elisha answered, “You must not kill them. Would you kill those whom you had taken captive with your sword and bow? Put bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.”
Li te reponn: “Ou pa pou touye yo. Èske ou ta touye sila ke ou fin pran an kaptivite avèk nepe oubyen ak banza ou? Mete pen avèk dlo devan yo pou yo kab manje ak bwè e ale kote mèt pa yo.”
23 So the king prepared much food for them, and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went back to their master. Those bands of Aramean soldiers did not return for a long time into the land of Israel.
Konsa, li te prepare yon gran repa pou yo, epi lè yo te fin manje e bwè, li te voye yo ale. Yo te ale kote mèt pa yo, epi bann piyajè Siryen yo pa t vini ankò nan peyi Israël.
24 Later after this Ben Hadad king of Aram gathered all his army and attacked Samaria and besieged it.
Alò, li te vin rive apre sa ke Ben-Hadad, wa Syrie a, te rasanble tout lame li a e te monte fè syèj kont Samarie.
25 So there was a great famine in Samaria. Behold, they besieged it until a donkey's head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.
Te gen yon gwo grangou nan Samarie. Konsa, gade byen, yo te fè syèj la jis li rive ke tèt a yon bourik te vann pou katreven sik an ajan e yon ka kab poupou toutrèl pou senk sik ajan.
26 As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, saying, “Help, my master, king.”
Pandan wa Israël la t ap pase sou mi an, yon fanm te kriye fò a li menm e te di: “Fè m sekou, mèt mwen, O Wa a!”
27 He said, “If Yahweh does not help you, how can I help you? Is there anything coming from the threshing floor or winepress?”
Wa a te di: “Si SENYÈ a pa ede ou, soti kibò mwen kab ede ou? Depi nan glasi vannen an, oswa avèk aparèy peze rezen an?”
28 The king continued, “What is troubling you?” She answered, “This woman said to me, 'Give your son so that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.'”
Epi wa a te mande l: “Kisa ou genyen?” Epi li te reponn: “Fanm sa a te di mwen: ‘Ban m ti fis ou a pou nou kab manje li jodi a e nou va manje fis pa ou a demen.’
29 So we boiled my son and ate him, and I said to her on the next day, “Give your son that we may eat him, but she has hidden her son.”
Konsa, nou te bouyi fis mwen an e manje li; epi mwen te di li sou jou ki vini an: ‘Ban m fis ou a pou nou kab manje li,’ men li te kache fis li a.”
30 So when the king heard the words of the woman, he tore his clothes (now he was passing by on the wall), and the people looked and saw that he had sackcloth underneath, against his skin.
Lè wa a te tande pawòl a fanm nan, li te chire rad li—epi koulye a, li t ap pase sou mi an—-e pèp la t ap gade, epi vwala, li te gen twal sak anba vètman a sou kò li.
31 Then he said, “May God do so to me, and more also, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on him today.”
Konsa, li te di: “Ke Bondye fè m sa, e menm plis, si tèt a Élisée, fis a Schaphath la rete sou kò li jodi a.”
32 But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. The king sent a man from before him, but when the messenger came to Elisha, he said to the elders, “See how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and hold the door shut against him. Is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?”
Alò, Élisée te chita lakay li a, e ansyen yo te chita avèk li. Epi wa a te voye yon mesye soti nan prezans li; men avan mesaje a te rive kote li, Élisée te di a ansyen yo: “Èske ou wè kijan mesye sa a, fis a yon asasen te voye pou retire pran tèt mwen? Gade, lè mesaje a vini, fèmen pòt la kont li e kenbe pòt la fèmen kont li. Èske se pa son a pye mèt li a ki dèyè li?”
33 While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him. The king had said, “Behold, this trouble comes from Yahweh. Why should I wait for Yahweh any longer?”
Pandan li te toujou ap pale avèk yo, men vwala, mesaje a te desann kote li. Li te di: “Men gade, mechanste sa a sòti nan SENYÈ a; poukisa mwen ta dwe tann SENYÈ a ankò?”
