< 2 Kings 2 >
1 Forsothe it was don, whanne the Lord wolde reise Elie bi a whirlewynd in to heuene, Elie and Elisee yeden fro Galgalis.
Yehova ali pafupi kutenga Eliya kupita kumwamba mu kamvuluvulu, Eliya ndi Elisa anali pa ulendo wopita ku Giligala.
2 And Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me til into Bethel. To whom Elisee seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. And whanne thei hadden come doun to Bethel,
Eliya anawuza Elisa kuti, “Iwe khala pano pakuti Yehova wandituma kuti ndipite ku Beteli.” Koma Elisa anati, “Pali Yehova wamoyo ndiponso pali inu nomwe, ineyo sindidzakusiyani.” Motero awiriwo anapita ku Beteli.
3 the sones of prophetis, that weren in Bethel, yeden out to Elisee, and seiden to hym, Whether thou knowist, that the Lord schal take awey thi lord to dai fro thee? Which answeride, And I knowe; be ye stille.
Ana a aneneri a ku Beteli anabwera kwa Elisa namufunsa kuti, “Kodi ukudziwa kuti lero Yehova akuchotsera mbuye wako?” Elisa anayankha kuti, “Inde ndikudziwa, koma musakambe zimenezi.”
4 Forsothe Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me into Jerico. And he seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. And whanne thei hadden come to Jerico,
Ndipo Eliya anati kwa Elisa, “Iwe khala pano pakuti Yehova wandituma kuti ndipite ku Yeriko.” Koma Elisa anayankha kuti, “Pali Yehova wamoyo ndiponso pali inu, ineyo sindidzakusiyani.” Motero awiriwo anapita ku Yeriko.
5 the sones of prophetis, that weren in Jerico, neiyiden to Elisee, and seiden to hym, Whether thou knowist, that the Lord schal take awei thi lord to dai fro thee? And he seide, Y knowe; be ye stille.
Ana a aneneri amene anali ku Yeriko anapita kwa Elisa, namufunsa kuti, “Kodi ukudziwa kuti lero Yehova akuchotsera mbuye wako?” Elisa anayankha kuti, “Inde ndikudziwa, koma inu musakambe zimenezi.”
6 Forsothe Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me `til to Jordan. Which seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. Therfor bothe yeden togidere;
Ndipo Eliya anati kwa Elisa, “Iwe khala pano pakuti Yehova wandituma kuti ndipite ku Yorodani.” Elisa anayankha kuti, “Pali Yehova wamoyo ndiponso pali inu nomwe, ineyo sindidzakusiyani.” Motero awiriwo anapitirira ulendo wawo.
7 and fifti men of the sones of prophetis sueden, which also stoden fer euen ayens; sothely thei bothe stoden ouer Jordan.
Anthu makumi asanu mwa ana a aneneri anawatsatira nayima chapatali moyangʼanana nawo ndipo Eliya ndi Elisa anayima mʼmphepete mwa Yorodani.
8 And Elie took his mentil, and wlappide it, and smoot the watris; whiche weren departid `into euer ethir part, and bothe yeden bi the drie.
Eliya anatenga chovala chake nachipinda, napanda madzi ndi chovalacho. Madziwo anagawikana, ena kwina ena kwina, ndipo awiriwo anawoloka powuma.
9 And whanne thei hadden passid, Elie seide to Elisee, Axe thou that, that thou wolt that Y do to thee, bifor that Y be takun awey fro thee. And Elisee seide, Y biseche, that thi double spirit be `maad in me.
Atawoloka, Eliya anati kwa Elisa, “Ndifotokozere, ndikuchitire chiyani ndisanachotsedwe pamaso pako?” Elisa anayankha kuti, “Ndikupemphani kuti mundipatse magawo awiri a mphamvu za mzimu wanu wa uneneri.”
10 Which Elie answeride, Thou axist an hard thing; netheles if thou schalt se me, whanne Y schal be takun awei fro thee, that that thou axidist schal be; sotheli, if thou schalt not se, it schal not be.
Eliya anati, “Wapempha chinthu chapatali, komabe ukandiona pamene ndikuchotsedwa pamaso pako, mphamvu wapemphayi idzakhala yako, koma ukapanda kundiona sizidzachitika.”
11 And whanne thei yeden, and spaken goynge, lo! a chare of fier and horsys of fier departiden euer either; and Elie stiede bi a whirlewynd in to heuene.
Akuyenda ndi kumakambirana, mwadzidzidzi galeta lamoto ndi akavalo amoto anaonekera ndi kuwasiyanitsa awiriwo, ndipo Eliya anapita kumwamba mʼkamvuluvulu.
12 Forsothe Elise siy, and criede, My fadir! my fadir! the chare of Israel, and the charietere therof. And he siy no more Elie. And he took hise clothis, and to-rente tho in to twei partis.
Elisa anaona zimenezi ndipo anafuwula kuti, “Abambo anga! Abambo anga! Magaleta a Israeli ndi anthu ake okwera pa akavalo!” Ndipo Elisa sanamuonenso Eliyayo. Pamenepo Elisa anagwira zovala zake nazingʼamba pakati.
13 And he reiside the mentil of Elie, that felde doun to hym; and he turnede ayen, and stood ouer the ryuer of Jordan.
Iye anatola chovala cha Eliya chomwe chinagwa nabwerera ndi kukayima mʼmphepete mwa Yorodani.
14 And with the mentil of Elie, that felde doun to hym, he smoot the watris, whiche weren not departid. And he seide, Where is God of Elie also now? And he smoot the watris, and tho weren departid hidur and thidur; and Elisee passide.
Ndipo Elisa anatenga chovala chomwe chinagwa kuchokera kwa Eliya napanda nacho madzi. Iye anafunsa kuti, “Ali kuti Mulungu wa Eliya?” Atapanda madzi, madziwo anagawika pakati, ena kwina ena kwina, ndipo iye anawoloka.
15 Sotheli the sones of prophetis, that weren in Jerico euene ayens, siyen, and seiden, The spirit of Elie restide on Elisee. And thei camen in to the meetyng of hym, and worschipiden hym lowli to erthe.
Ndipo ana a aneneri ochokera ku Yeriko atamuona anati, “Mzimu wa Eliya wakhazikika pa Elisa.” Ndipo anapita kukakumana naye nagwada ndi kuweramitsa mitu yawo pansi pamaso pake.
16 And thei seiden to hym, Lo! with thi seruauntis ben fifti stronge men, that moun go, and seke thi lord, lest perauenture the Spirit of the Lord hath take hym, and hath cast forth hym in oon of the hillis, ethir in oon of the valeys.
Ndipo anawuza Elisa kuti, “Ife atumiki anu tili ndi anthu amphamvu makumi asanu. Aloleni apite kuti akafunefune mbuye wanu. Mwina Mzimu wa Yehova wamutenga ndi kukamuponya ku phiri lina kapena ku chigwa china.” Elisa anayankha kuti, “Ayi, musawatume.”
17 Which seide, `Nyle ye sende. And thei constreyneden hym, til he assentide to hem, and seide, Sende ye. And thei senten fifti men; and whanne thei hadden souyt bi thre daies, thei founden not.
Koma anamukakamizabe mpaka Elisayo anachita manyazi moti sakanatha kukana. Choncho iye anati, “Atumizeni.” Ndipo anatumiza anthu makumi asanu amene anakafunafuna Eliya kwa masiku atatu koma sanamupeze.
18 And thei turneden ayen to hym; and he dwelide in Jerico. And he seide to hem, Whether Y seide not to you, Nyle ye sende?
Atabwerera kwa Elisa (chifukwa anali akanali ku Yeriko), iye anawawuza kuti, “Kodi sindinakuwuzeni kuti musapite?”
19 Therfor the men of the citee seiden to Elisee, Lo! the dwellyng of this cite is ful good, as thou thi silf, lord, seest; but the watris ben ful yuele, and the lond is bareyn.
Anthu a mu mzindamo anati kwa Elisa, “Mbuye wathu, taonani mzinda uno uli pamalo pabwino, monga mukuoneramu, koma madzi ake ndi oyipa, nthaka yakenso ndi yosabereka.”
20 And he seide, Brynge ye to me a newe vessel, and sende ye salt in to it. And whanne thei hadden brouyt it,
Iye anati, “Patseni mbale yatsopano ndipo muyikemo mchere.” Ndipo anabweretsa mbaleyo kwa iye.
21 he yede out to the welle of watris, and sente salt in to it, and seide, The Lord seith these thingis, Y haue helid these watris, and nethir deeth, nether bareynesse, schal be more in tho.
Kenaka Elisa anapita ku kasupe wa madziwo, nathiramo mchere mʼkasupemo nati, “Yehova akuti, ‘Ndachiritsa madzi awa. Madzi amenewa sadzabweretsanso imfa kapena kuchititsa kuti nthaka ikhale yosabereka.’”
22 Therfor the watris weren heelid til in to this dai, bi the word of Elisee, which he spak.
Kotero madziwo ndi abwino mpaka lero, molingana ndi mawu amene Elisa anayankhula.
23 Forsothe Elisee stiede fro thennus in to Bethel; and whanne he stiede bi the weie, litle children yeden out of the citee, and scorneden hym, and seiden, Stie, thou ballard! stie, thou ballard!
Kuchokera kumeneko Elisa anapita ku Beteli. Ndipo pamene ankayenda mu msewu, anyamata ena achichepere anatuluka mu mzindamo nʼkumamuseka. Iwo ankanena kuti, “Choka iwe, wachidazi! Choka iwe wachidazi”
24 And whanne he hadde biholde, he siy hem, and curside hem in the name of the Lord. And twey beeris yeden out of the forest, and to-rente fourti children of hem.
Iye anatembenuka nawayangʼana ndipo anawatemberera mʼdzina la Yehova. Nthawi yomweyo panatulukira zimbalangondo ziwiri kuchokera kuthengo, ndi kuphapo anyamata 42.
25 Sotheli Elisee wente fro thennus in to the hil of Carmele, and fro thennus he turnede `ayen to Samarie.
Ndipo iye anapita ku phiri la Karimeli. Pochoka kumeneko anabwerera ku Samariya.
