2 Kings 8

1 And Elisha spake unto the woman whose son he had revived, saying, 'Rise and go, thou and thy household, and sojourn where thou dost sojourn, for Jehovah hath called for a famine, and also, it is coming unto the land seven years.'

Ịlaisha gwara nwanyị ahụ o mere ka nwa ya si nʼọnwụ bilie okwu sị ya, “Bilie, gị na ezinaụlọ gị, gaa nʼobodo ọzọ ebe unu ga-anọ dịka ọbịa nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ekwuola na oke ụnwụ ga-adakwasị ala Izrel afọ asaa.”

2 And the woman riseth, and doth according to the word of the man of God, and goeth, she and her household, and sojourneth in the land of the Philistines seven years.

Nwanyị ahụ mere dịka onye nke Chineke gwara ya, o biliri, ya na ezinaụlọ ya gaa biri nʼala ndị Filistia afọ asaa.

3 And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven years, that the woman turneth back from the land of the Philistines, and goeth out to cry unto the king, for her house, and for her field.

Mgbe ụnwụ ahụ gwụsịrị nʼafọ nke asaa, o si nʼala ndị Filistia lọta nʼIzrel. Mgbe ọ lọtara, o jekwuuru eze ka o nyere ya aka inwetaghachi ụlọ ya na ala ya.

4 And the king is speaking unto Gehazi, servant of the man of God, saying, 'Recount, I pray thee, to me, the whole of the great things that Elisha hath done.'

Mgbe nwanyị ahụ bịakwutere eze, eze nọ na-agwa Gehazi bụ onye na-ejere onye nke Chineke ozi okwu sị ya, “Biko, kọọrọ m akụkọ ihe ukwu niile Ịlaisha mere.”

5 And it cometh to pass, he is recounting to the king how he had revived the dead, and lo, the woman whose son he had revived is crying unto the king, for her house and for her field, and Gehazi saith, 'My lord, O king, this [is] the woman, and this her son, whom Elisha revived.'

Mgbe Gehazi na-akọrọ eze otu Ịlaisha si mee ka nwantakịrị nwụrụ anwụ dị ndụ ọzọ, nwanyị ahụ, onye bụ nne nwantakịrị ahụ, batara nʼime ụlọeze. Mgbe ahụ, Gehazi kwuru sị, “Onyenwe m eze, onye a bụ nwanyị ahụ, leekwa nwa ya nwoke, onye Ịlaisha mere ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ.”

6 And the king asketh at the woman, and she recounteth to him, and the king appointeth to her a certain eunuch, saying, 'Give back all that she hath, and all the increase of the field from the day of her leaving the land even till now.'

Eze jụrụ nwanyị ahụ ajụjụ sị ya, “Ọ bụ eziokwu?” Nwanyị ahụ kọọrọ eze akụkọ ihe niile mere. Mgbe ahụ, eze dunyere ya otu onyeisi nʼime ndị ozi ya ka o nyere ya aka inwetaghachi ihe ya niile, ya na ụgwọ ruru ya nʼihi mkpụrụ ubi ya niile ha ghọrọ mgbe ahụ o bi nʼala ndị Filistia.

7 And Elisha cometh in to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram is sick, and it is declared to him, saying, 'The man of God hath come hither.'

Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị Ịlaisha gara Damaskọs, isi obodo ndị Siria. Nʼoge a, Ben-Hadad eze Aram, na-arịa ọrịa. “A gara gwa eze na onye nke Chineke abịala nʼebe ahụ.”

8 And the king saith unto Hazael, 'Take in thy hand a present, and go to meet the man of God, and thou hast sought Jehovah by him, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'

Mgbe eze nụrụ ya, ọ kpọrọ Hazael sị ya, “Were onyinye ịnata ihuọma nʼaka gị wegara onye nke Chineke, site nʼaka ya jụta Onyenwe anyị ase. Jụọ ya, ‘M ga-esi nʼọrịa a bilie?’”

9 And Hazael goeth to meet him, and taketh a present in his hand, even of every good thing of Damascus, a burden of forty camels, and he cometh in and standeth before him, and saith, 'Thy son Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'

Hazael weere iri ịnyịnya kamel anọ buru ezi ihe niile si nʼala Damaskọs, wetara Ịlaisha onyinye ndị a sị ya, “Nwa gị Ben-Hadad, eze Aram, zitere ka m jụọ gị sị, ‘M ga-esi nʼọrịa a bilie?’”

10 And Elisha saith unto him, 'Go, say, Thou dost certainly not revive, seeing Jehovah hath shewed me that he doth surely die.'

Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Laa, gaa gwa ya sị ya, ‘Ị ga-esi nʼọrịa bilie.’ Ma Onyenwe anyị egosila m na, nʼezie, ọ ga-anwụ.”

11 And he setteth his face, yea, he setteth [it] till he is ashamed, and the man of God weepeth.

Mgbe Ịlaisha nọ na-ekwu okwu a, o legidere Hazael anya nʼihu tutu ruo mgbe ihere mere ya. Mgbe ahụ, onye nke Chineke kwara akwa.

12 And Hazael saith, 'Wherefore is my lord weeping?' and he saith, 'Because I have known the evil that thou dost to the sons of Israel — their fenced places thou dost send into fire, and their young men with sword thou dost slay, and their sucklings thou dost dash to pieces, and their pregnant women thou dost rip up.'

Mgbe ahụ, Hazael jụrụ Ịlaisha ajụjụ sị, “Ọ bụ gịnị mere onyenwe m ji akwa akwa?” Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Nʼihi na amaara m ihe ọjọọ ị ga-eme ụmụ Izrel nʼoge dị nʼihu. Ị ga-akpọ obodo niile ha e wusiri ike ọkụ, jiri mma agha gbuo ụmụ okorobịa ha. Ị ga-atụpịa ụmụntakịrị na-aṅụ ara, bọwakwaa afọ ndị inyom dị ime.”

13 And Hazael saith, 'But what, [is] thy servant the dog, that he doth this great thing?' And Elisha saith, 'Jehovah hath shewed me thee — king of Aram.'

Hazael sịrị, “Olee otu ọrụ gị, bụ nkịta efu, ga-esi nwee ike imezu ihe ukwuu a?” Ịlaisha zara, “Onyenwe anyị egosila m na ị ga-abụ eze Aram.”

14 And he goeth from Elisha, and cometh in unto his lord, and he saith unto him, 'What said Elisha to thee?' and he saith, 'He said to me, Thou dost certainly recover.'

Mgbe Hazael, si nʼebe Ịlaisha nọ laa, ọ bịakwutere nna ya ukwu. Mgbe Ben-Hadad jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị ka Ịlaisha gwara gị?” Hazael zara sị, “Ọ gwara m na ị ga-esi nʼọrịa bilie.”

15 And it cometh to pass on the morrow, that he taketh the coarse cloth, and dippeth in water, and spreadeth on his face, and he dieth, and Hazael reigneth in his stead.

Ma nʼechi ya, Hazael chịịrị akwa na-egbo oyi, banye ya na mmiri jiri ya baa nʼebe eze dina, gbasaa ya nʼihu eze, tutu ruo mgbe ọ nwụrụ. Emesịa, Hazael ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.

16 And in the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel — and Jehoshaphat [is] king of Judah — hath Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah reigned;

Nʼafọ nke ise nke ọchịchị Joram nwa Ehab eze Izrel, mgbe Jehoshafat bụ eze Juda, ka Jehoram nwa Jehoshafat malitere ọchịchị ya dịka eze Juda.

17 a son of thirty and two years was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem.

Ọ dị iri afọ atọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị afọ asatọ na Jerusalem.

18 And he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab was to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,

O soro ụzọ ndị eze Izrel dịka ụlọ Ehab mere, nʼihi na ọ lụrụ ada Ehab. O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.

19 and Jehovah was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of David his servant, as He said to him, to give to him a lamp — to his sons all the days.

Ma nʼagbanyeghị nke a, nʼihi ohu ya bụ Devid Onyenwe anyị achọghị ibibi Juda. Nʼihi na o kwere nkwa ime ka oriọna dịịrị Devid na ụmụ ụmụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

20 In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them,

Nʼoge Jehoram bụ eze, ka Edọm si nʼokpuru Juda nupu isi, họpụtara onwe ha eze.

21 and Joram passeth over to Zair, and all the chariots with him, and he himself hath risen by night, and smiteth Edom, that is coming round about unto him, and the heads of the chariots, and the people fleeth to its tents;

Ya mere, Jehoram duuru ụgbọ agha ya niile gaa nʼobodo Zaịa. O biliri nʼabalị tigbuo ndị Edọm ahụ gbara ya na ndị ọchịagha ụgbọ agha ya gburugburu; ma ndị agha ya gbaghachiri azụ, laa nʼụlọ ha.

22 and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah till this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time.

Ya mere, Edọm ka na-enupu isi megide Juda, ruo taa. Obodo Libna nupukwara isi nʼotu oge ahụ.

23 And the rest of the matters of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Akụkọ ihe niile Jehoram mere, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Juda mere nʼụbọchị ndụ ha?

24 And Joram lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaziah his son in his stead.

Joram sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼebe e liri nna ya ha nʼobodo Devid. Ahazaya nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.

25 In the twelfth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel reigned hath Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah;

Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ nke ọchịchị Joram nwa Ehab, bụ eze Izrel, ka Ahazaya nwa Jehoram, bụ eze Juda malitere ịchị.

26 a son of twenty and two years [is] Ahaziah in his reigning, and one year he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Athaliah daughter of Omri king of Israel,

Ahazaya gbara iri afọ abụọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị otu afọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Atalaya, nwa nwa Omri, eze Izrel

27 and he walketh in the way of the house of Ahab, and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the house of Ahab, for he [is] son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

O soro ụzọ niile nke ndị ezinaụlọ Ehab, mee ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka ezinaụlọ Ehab mere, nʼihi na ọ lụrụ nwanyị si nʼezinaụlọ Ehab.

28 And he goeth with Joram son of Ahab to battle with Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and the Aramaeans smite Joram,

Ahazaya sooro Joram nwa Ehab, gaa ibuso Hazael eze Aram agha na Ramọt Gilead. Ndị Aram merụrụ Joram ahụ.

29 and Joram the king turneth back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds with which the Arameans smite him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram, and Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah hath gone down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he is sick.

Ya mere, eze Joram lọghachitere na Jezril, ka a gwọọ ya mmerụ ahụ ndị Aram merụrụ ya na Ramọt, nʼagha nke ya na Hazael eze Aram lụrụ. Mgbe ahụ, Ahazaya nwa Jehoram eze Juda, gara Jezril ileta Joram nwa Ehab, nʼihi na e merụrụ ya ahụ.
