2 Kings 4
1 Forsothe sum womman of the wyues of prophetys criede to Elisee, and seide, Thi seruaunt, myn hosebonde, is deed, and thou knowist that thi seruaunt dredde God; and lo! the creaunser, `that is, he to whom the dette is owid, cometh to take my two sones to serue hym.
Mke wa mmoja wa wana wa manabii akamlilia Elisha, akamwambia, “Mtumishi wako, mume wangu, amekufa, nawe unajua alikuwa anamcha Bwana. Lakini sasa yule anayemdai anakuja kuchukua wanangu wawili kama watumwa wake.”
2 To whom Elisee seide, What wolt thou that Y do to thee? seie thou to me, what hast thou in thin hows? And she answeride, Y thin handmayde haue not ony thing in myn hows, no but a litil of oile, bi which Y schal be anoyntid.
Elisha akamjibu, “Nitawezaje kukusaidia? Niambie, una nini ndani ya nyumba yako?” Akasema, “Mtumishi wako hana kitu chochote kabisa, isipokuwa mafuta kidogo.”
3 To whom he seide, Go thou, and axe bi borewyng of alle thi neiyboris voide vessels not fewe.
Elisha akasema, “Zunguka kwa majirani zako wote ukaombe vyombo vitupu. Usiombe vichache.
4 And entre, and close thi dore, whanne thou art with ynne, thou and thi sones; and putte ye therof in to alle these vessels; and whanne tho schulen be ful, thou schalt take awei.
Kisha ingia ndani na ujifungie mlango, wewe na wanao. Mimina mafuta kwenye vyombo vyote, na kila kimoja kinapojaa, kiweke kando.”
5 Therfor the womman yede, and closide the dore on hir silf and on hir sones, thei brouyten vessels, and sche `heldide in.
Yule mjane akaondoka na kujifungia ndani, yeye na wanawe. Wao wakamletea vyombo, naye akaendelea kumimina mafuta.
6 And whanne the vessels weren fulle, sche seide to hir sone, Brynge thou yit a vessel to me. And he answeride, Y haue not. And the oyle stood.
Vyombo vyote vilipojaa, akamwambia mwanawe, “Niletee chombo kingine.” Lakini mwanawe akajibu, “Hakuna chombo kingine kilichobaki.” Basi mafuta yakakoma kutiririka.
7 Forsothe sche cam, and schewide to the man of God; and he seide, Go thou, sil thou the oile, and yelde to thi creauncer; forsothe thou and thi children lyue of the residue.
Yule mwanamke akaenda akamwambia yule mtu wa Mungu, naye mtu wa Mungu akasema, “Nenda ukayauze hayo mafuta ulipe madeni yako. Wewe na wanao mnaweza kuishi kwa kile kinachosalia.”
8 Forsothe sum day was maad, and Elisee passide bi a citee, Sunam; sotheli a greet womman was there, which helde hym, that he schulde ete breed. And whanne he passide ofte therbi, `he turnede to hir, that he schulde ete breed.
Siku moja Elisha akaenda Shunemu. Huko kulikuwa na mwanamke mmoja mwenye cheo, ambaye alimsisitiza Elisha aje kula chakula. Kwa hiyo kila mara alipitia pale, akaingia humo ili ale.
9 `Which womman seide to hir hosebonde, Y perseyue that this is an hooli man of God, that passith ofte bi vs;
Akamwambia mumewe, “Ninajua kwamba huyu mtu ambaye anakuja kwetu mara kwa mara ni mtu mtakatifu wa Mungu.
10 therfor make we a litil soler to hym, and putte we therynne a litil bed to hym, and a boord, and a chaier, and a candilstike; that whanne he cometh to vs, he dwelle there.
Tutengeneze chumba kidogo juu darini na tuweke ndani yake kitanda na meza, kiti na taa kwa ajili yake. Kisha anaweza kukaa humo kila mara akija kwetu.”
11 Therfor sum dai was maad, and he cam, and turnede in to the soler, and restide there.
Siku moja Elisha alipofika, akapanda chumbani kwake na kulala humo.
12 And he seide to Giezi, his child, Clepe thou this Sunamyte. And whanne he hadde clepid hir, and sche hadde stonde
Akamwambia mtumishi wake Gehazi, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Hivyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mbele yake.
13 bifor hym, he seide to his child, Speke thou to hir, Lo! thou hast mynystride to vs bisili in alle thingis; what wolt thou that Y do to thee? Whether thou hast a cause, and wolt that Y speke to the kyng, ether to the prince of the chyualrye? And sche answeride, I dwelle in the myddis of my puple.
Elisha akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwambie huyu mwanamke, ‘Umetaabika sana kwa ajili yetu. Sasa utendewe nini? Je, tunaweza kuzungumza na mfalme au jemadari wa jeshi kwa niaba yako?’” Akajibu, “Mimi ninaishi kwangu miongoni mwa watu wangu.”
14 And he seide, What therfor wole sche that Y do to hir? Giezi seide to hym, Axe thou not, for she hath no sone, and hir hosebonde is eeld.
Elisha akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Je, ni nini kinachoweza kufanyika kwa ajili yake?” Gehazi akasema, “Hakika, hana mwana, na mume wake ni mzee.”
15 Therfor Elisee comaundide, that he schulde clepe hir. And whanne sche was clepid, and stood bifor the dore,
Ndipo Elisha akasema, “Mwite huyo mwanamke.” Kwa hiyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mlangoni.
16 he seide to hir, In this tyme and in this same our, if lijf schal be felow, thou schalt haue a sone in the wombe. And sche answeride, Nyle thou, my lord, the man of God, Y biseche, nyle thou lye to thin hondmaide.
Elisha akamwambia, “Mwaka ujao, wakati kama huu utabeba mwana mikononi mwako.” Yule mama akapinga, akasema, “La hasha, bwana wangu, usimpotoshe mtumishi wako, ee mtu wa Mungu!”
17 And the womman conseyuede, and childide a sone in the tyme, and in the same our, in which Elisee hadde seid.
Lakini yule mwanamke akapata mimba, na mwaka uliofuata wakati kama ule ule akamzaa mwana, kama vile Elisha alivyokuwa amemwambia.
18 Sotheli the child encreeside; and whanne sum day was, and the child was goon out, and yede to his fadir,
Mtoto akakua, naye siku moja akamwendea baba yake, ambaye alikuwa pamoja na wavunaji.
19 and to the repers, he seide to his fadir, Myn heed akith, myn heed akith. And he seide to a child, Take, and lede hym to his modir.
Akamwambia baba yake, “Kichwa changu! Kichwa changu!” Baba yake akamwambia mtumishi, “Mchukue umpeleke kwa mama yake.”
20 And whanne he hadde take, and hadde brouyt hym to his modir, sche settide hym on hir knees `til to myddai, and he was deed.
Baada ya mtumishi kumbeba na kumpeleka kwa mama yake, mtoto akaketi mapajani mwa mama yake mpaka adhuhuri, kisha akafa.
21 Sotheli she stiede, and leide hym on the litil bed of the man of God, and closide the dore.
Mama akampandisha na kumlaza juu ya kitanda cha yule mtu wa Mungu, kisha akafunga mlango, akatoka nje.
22 And sche yede out, and clepide hir hosebonde, and seide, Y biseche, sende thou with me oon of the children, and an asse, and Y schal renne out `til to the man of God, and Y schal turne ayen.
Akamwita mume wake na kusema, “Tafadhali mtume mmoja miongoni mwa mtumishi pamoja na punda ili niweze kwenda kwa mtu wa Mungu haraka na kurudi.”
23 And he seide to hir, For what cause goist thou to hym? to dai ben not calendis, nether sabat. And she answeride, Y schal go.
Mume wake akamuuliza, “Kwa nini uende kwake leo? Leo si mwandamo wa mwezi, wala si Sabato.” Mwanamke akasema, “Yote ni sawa.”
24 And sche sadlide the asse, and comaundide to the child, Dryue thou, and haaste; make thou not tariyng to me in goyng, and do thou this thing which Y comaunde to thee.
Akatandika punda na kumwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwongoze huyo punda. Usinipunguzie mwendo mpaka nikuambie.”
25 Therfor sche yede forth, and cam to the man of God, in to the hil of Carmele. And whanne the man of God hadde seyn hir euene ayen, he seide to Giezi, his child, Lo! thilke Sunamyte; go thou therfor in to the metyng of hir,
Kwa hiyo akaenda na kumfikia huyo mtu wa Mungu katika Mlima Karmeli. Alipomwona kwa mbali, huyo mtu wa Mungu akamwambia mtumishi wake Gehazi, “Tazama, yule Mshunami!
26 and seie thou to hir, Whether it is doon riytfuli aboute thee, and aboute thin hosebonde, and aboute thi sone? And sche answeride, Riytfuli.
Kimbia ukamlaki, umuulize, ‘Je, wewe hujambo? Mume wako hajambo? Mtoto wako ni mzima?’” Akasema, “Kila kitu ni sawasawa.”
27 And whanne sche hadde come to the man of God, in to the hil, sche took his feet; and Giezi neiyede, that he schulde remoue hir. And the man of God seide, Suffre thou hir; for hir soule is in bitternesse, and the Lord helde priuy fro me, and schewide not to me.
Alipomfikia huyo mtu wa Mungu pale mlimani, akashika miguu yake. Gehazi akaja ili amwondoe, lakini yule mtu wa Mungu akasema, “Mwache! Yuko katika uchungu mkubwa, lakini Bwana amenificha jambo hili na hajaniambia kwa nini.”
28 And sche seide to hym, Whether I axide my sone of my lord? Whether Y seide not to thee, Scorne thou not me?
Yule mwanamke akasema, “Je, bwana wangu, mimi nilikuomba mwana? Je, sikukuambia, ‘Usiamshe matumaini yangu’?”
29 And he seide to Giezi, Girde thi leendis, and take my staf in thin hond, and go; if a man metith thee, grete thou not hym; and if ony man gretith thee, answere thou not hym; and putte thou my staf on the face of the child.
Elisha akamwambia Gehazi, “Jikaze viuno, chukua fimbo yangu mkononi mwako na ukimbie. Ikiwa utakutana na mtu yeyote, usimsalimie, na mtu yeyote akikusalimu, usimjibu. Ilaze fimbo yangu juu ya uso wa mtoto.”
30 Forsothe the `modir of the child seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, Y schal not leeue, `ether forsake, thee. Therfor he roos, and suede hir.
Lakini mama mtoto akasema, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo na wewe uishivyo, sitakuacha.” Kwa hiyo Elisha akainuka, akafuatana naye.
31 Sotheli Giezi yede bifor hem, and puttide the staaf on the face of the child; and `vois was not, nether wit. And Giezi turnede ayen to the meetyng of hym; and telde to him, and seyde, The child `roos not.
Gehazi akatangulia mbele na kuilaza fimbo juu ya uso wa mtoto, lakini hapakuwa na sauti wala itikio. Hivyo Gehazi akarudi kukutana na Elisha, na kumwambia, “Mtoto hajaamka.”
32 Therfor Elisee entride in to the hows, and, lo! the deed child lai in his bed.
Elisha alipofika kwenye ile nyumba, mtoto alikuwa amelala juu ya kitanda chake angali amekufa.
33 And he entride, and closide the dore on hym silf, and on the child; and preiede to the Lord.
Akaingia ndani, akajifungia yeye na yule mtoto, akamwomba Bwana.
34 And he stiede, and lay on the child; and he puttide his mouth on the mouth of the child, and hise iyen on the iyen of the child, and hise hondis on the hondis of the child. And he bouwide hym silf on the child; and the fleisch of the child was maad hoot.
Kisha akapanda kitandani, akalala juu ya yule mtoto, mdomo wake juu ya mdomo wa mtoto, macho yake juu ya macho ya mtoto, mikono yake juu ya mikono ya mtoto. Naye alipojinyoosha juu yake, mwili wa mtoto ukapata joto.
35 And he turnede ayen, and walkide in the hows onys hidur and thidur; and Elisee stiede, and lai on the child, and the child yoxide seuene sithis, and openyde the iyen.
Elisha akajiondoa juu yake na kuanza kutembeatembea ndani ya chumba, kisha akarudi tena kitandani na kujinyoosha tena juu ya mtoto mara nyingine. Mtoto akapiga chafya mara saba, akafungua macho yake.
36 And he clepide Giezi, and seide to hym, Clepe thou this Sunamyte. And sche was clepid, and entride to hym. And he seide, Take thi sone.
Elisha akamwita Gehazi na kumwambia, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Naye akafanya hivyo. Yule Mshunami alipokuja, Elisha akasema, “Mchukue mwanao.”
37 She cam, and felde doun to his feet, and worschipide on erthe; and sche took hir sone, and yede out.
Akaingia ndani, akaanguka miguuni pa Elisha na kusujudu hadi nchi. Kisha akamchukua mwanawe na kutoka nje.
38 And Elisee turnede ayen in to Galgala. Forsothe hungur was in the lond, and the sones of prophetis dwelliden bifor hym. And Elisee seide to oon of his children, Set thou a greet pot, and sethe thou potage to the sones of prophetis.
Elisha akarudi Gilgali, nako huko kulikuwa na njaa katika eneo lile. Wakati wana wa kundi la manabii walipokuwa wanakutana naye, akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Teleka chungu kikubwa jikoni uwapikie manabii.”
39 And oon yede out in to the feeld to gadere eerbis of the feeld; and he foond as a wilde vyne, and he gaderide therof gourdis of the feeld. And he fillide his mentil, and he turnede ayen, and schredde in to the pot of potage; for he wiste not what it was.
Mmoja wao akatoka kwenda mashambani kuchuma mboga na akapata mtango mwitu. Akachuma matango na kujaza nguo yake aliyoikunja ili kubebea. Aliporudi, akayakatakata na kuyatumbukiza ndani ya chungu, ingawa hakuna aliyejua ni nini.
40 Therfor thei helden yn to felowis to ete; and whanne thei hadden taastid of the sething, thei crieden out, and seiden, Deth in the pot! deeth in the pot! thou man of God. And thei miyten not ete. And he seide, Brynge ye meele.
Mchuzi ukagawiwa watu, lakini walipoanza kula, wakalia, “Ee mtu wa Mungu, kuna mauti ndani ya chungu.” Nao hawakuweza kula.
41 And whanne thei hadden brouyt, he puttide in to the pot, and seide, Helde ye to the cumpany, that thei ete; and ony thing of bitternesse was nomore in the pot.
Elisha akasema, “Leteni unga.” Akauweka ndani ya chungu na kusema, “Wagawie watu ili wale.” Wala hapakuwa na kitu chochote chenye madhara ndani ya chungu.
42 Forsothe sum man cam fro the pleyn of Salisa, and bar to the man of God looues of the firste fruytis, ten looues of barli, and newe wheete, in his scrippe. And the man of God seide, Yyue thou to the puple, that it ete.
Akaja mtu kutoka Baal-Shalisha, akimletea mtu wa Mungu mikate ishirini ya shayiri iliyookwa kutokana na nafaka ya kwanza, pamoja na masuke ya nafaka mpya. Elisha akasema, “Wape watu ili wale.”
43 And his mynystre answeride to hym, `Hou myche is this, that Y sette bifor an hundrid men? Eft Elisee seide, Yyue thou to the puple, that it ete; for the Lord seith these thingis, Thei schulen ete, and it shal leeue.
Mtumishi wake akamuuliza, “Nitawezaje kuandaa hii mbele ya watu mia?” Lakini Elisha akajibu, “Wape watu ili wale. Kwa maana hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana: ‘Watakula na kusaza.’”
44 Therfor he puttide bifor hem, whiche eeten; and it lefte, bi the word of the Lord.
Basi akaiandaa mbele yao ile mikate, wakala na baadhi yake wakasaza, sawasawa na neno la Bwana.
