< 2 Athamaki 7 >

1 Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Thikĩrĩria kiugo kĩa Jehova. Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Ihinda ta rĩĩrĩ rũciũ-rĩ, kĩbaba kĩmwe kĩa mũtu mũhinyu gĩkeendio cekeri ĩmwe, nacio ibaba igĩrĩ cia cairi ikeendio cekeri ĩmwe hau kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa Samaria.”
Then Elisha saide, Heare ye the worde of the Lord: thus saith the Lord, To morowe this time a measure of fine floure shalbe solde for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel in the gate of Samaria.
2 Nake mũnene ũrĩa wateithagia mũthamaki akĩĩra mũndũ wa Ngai atĩrĩ, “O na Jehova angĩhingũra ndirica cia igũrũ-rĩ, ũndũ ũcio wahoteka?” Nake Elisha akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩũkawona na maitho maku, no ndũkaarĩa o na kĩ!”
Then a prince, on whose hande the King leaned, answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, could this thing come to passe? And he said, Beholde, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.
3 Na rĩrĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na andũ ana maarũarĩte mangũ, maaikaraga itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo gĩa itũũra inene. Makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma tũikare haha nginya tũkue?
Nowe there were foure leprous men at the entring in of the gate: and they saide one to an other, Why sitte we here vntill we die?
4 Tũngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩtũgũthiĩ thĩinĩ wa itũũra,’ o nakuo kũrĩ na ngʼaragu, na no tũgũkua. Na tũngĩikara haha, no tũgũkua. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rekei tũthiĩ kũu kambĩ-inĩ ya Asuriata, twĩneane kũrĩĩo. Mangĩtũhonokia, tũgĩtũũre muoyo; mangĩtũũraga, tũgĩkue.”
If we say, We will enter into the citie, the famine is in the citie, and we shall die there: and if we sit here, we dye also. Nowe therefore come, and let vs fall into the campe of the Aramites: if they saue our liues, we shall liue: and if they kill vs, we are but dead.
5 Hwaĩ-inĩ gũkĩira magĩũkĩra, magĩthiĩ kambĩ-inĩ ya Asuriata. Nao maakinya nyumĩrĩra ya kambĩ, magĩkora gũtiarĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe kuo,
So they rose vp in the twilight, to goe to the campe of the Aramites: and when they were come to the vtmost part of the campe of the Aramites, loe, there was no man there.
6 nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩatũmĩte andũ a ita rĩa Asuriata maigue mũkubio wa ngaari cia ita, na wa mbarathi, na wa mbũtũ nene; nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, mũthamaki wa Isiraeli nĩakomborete athamaki a Ahiti na a Misiri nĩguo matũtharĩkĩre!”
For the Lord had caused the campe of the Aramites to heare a noyse of charets and a noise of horses, and a noise of a great armie, so that they sayde one to another, Beholde, the King of Israel hath hired against vs the Kings of the Hittites, and the Kings of the Egyptians to come vpon vs.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩũkĩra, makĩũra hwaĩ-inĩ na mairia, magĩtiga hema ciao, o na mbarathi, na ndigiri. Magĩtiga kambĩ o ro ũguo yarĩ, na makĩũra nĩguo mahonokie mĩoyo yao.
Wherefore they arose, and fled in the twilight, and left their tentes and their horses, and their asses, euen the campe as it was, and fledde for their liues.
8 Andũ arĩa maarĩ na mangũ magĩkinya nyumĩrĩra ya kambĩ, na magĩtoonya hema-inĩ ĩmwe. Makĩrĩa na makĩnyua, na magĩkuua betha, na thahabu, o na nguo, magĩthiĩ magĩcihitha. Magĩcooka rĩngĩ magĩtoonya hema ĩngĩ, makĩoya indo iria ciarĩ kuo o nacio magĩcihitha.
And when these lepers came to the vtmost part of the campe, they entred into one tent, and did eate and drinke, and caryed thence siluer and golde, and raiment, and went and hid it: after they returned, and entred into another tent, and caryed thence also, and went and hid it.
9 Magĩcooka makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Rĩu tũtireka wega. Mũthenya ũyũ nĩ wa kũheana ũhoro mwega, na ithuĩ no gũkira tũkirĩte naguo. Tũngĩeterera nginya gũkĩe, no tũherithio. Rekei tũthiĩ o ro rĩu, tũkaheane ũhoro ũyũ nyũmba-inĩ ya mũthamaki.”
Then saide one to another, We doe not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we holde our peace. if we tary till day light, some mischiefe will come vpon vs. Nowe therefore, come, let vs goe, and tell the Kings housholde.
10 Nao magĩthiĩ magĩĩta arangĩri a ihingo cia itũũra, makĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũgũthiĩte kambĩ-inĩ ya Asuriata, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ kuo, gũtirĩ o na mũgambo wa mũndũ, no mbarathi na ndigiri ciohetwo, nacio hema igatigwo o ro ũrĩa ciatariĩ.”
So they came, and called vnto the porters of the citie, and tolde them, saying, We came to the campe of the Aramites, and loe, there was no man there, neither voyce of man, but horses tyed and asses tyed: and the tents are as they were.
11 Nao arangĩri a ihingo makĩanĩrĩra ũhoro ũcio, naguo ũgĩkinyĩra nyũmba ya mũthamaki.
And the porters cryed and declared to the Kings house within.
12 Nake mũthamaki agĩũkĩra ũtukũ, na akĩĩra anene ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũmwĩra ũrĩa Asuriata matwĩkĩte. Nĩmamenyete tũrĩ na ngʼaragu, nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩkĩo matigĩte kambĩ, makeehitha kũu gĩthaka-inĩ, magĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ nĩmekuuma itũũra-inĩ na hĩndĩ ĩyo tũmanyiite mĩgwate marĩ muoyo na tũtoonye itũũra-inĩ inene.’”
Then the King arose in the night, and saide vnto his seruants, I wil shew you now, what the Aramites haue done vnto vs. They know that we are affamished, therefore they are gone out of the campe to hide them selues in the fielde, saying, When they come out of the citie, we shall catch them aliue, and get into the citie.
13 Nake ũmwe wa anene ake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Tũma andũ amwe mathiĩ na mbarathi ithano iria itigaire itũũra-inĩ. Ũhoro wao githĩ ndũgũkĩhaana o ta wa Isiraeli othe arĩa marĩ gũkũ thĩinĩ. Ĩĩ-ni, megũkorwo mahaana o ta Isiraeli aya othe makiriĩ gũthira. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio reke tũmatũme magatuĩrie ũrĩa kũhaana.”
And one of his seruants answered, and said, Let me take now fiue of the horses that remaine, and are left in the citie, (behold, they are euen as all the multitude of Israel that are left therein: beholde, I say, they are as the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed) and we wil send to see.
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthuura ngaari igĩrĩ cia ita na mbarathi ciacio, nake mũthamaki akĩmatũma marũmĩrĩre mbũtũ cia ita cia Asuriata. Nake agĩatha atwarithia akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ mũgatuĩrie ũrĩa kũhaana.”
So they tooke two charets of horses, and the King sent after the hoste of the Aramites, saying, Goe and see.
15 Makĩmarũmĩrĩra o nginya Jorodani, magĩkora njĩra ĩiyũrĩte nguo na indo iria Asuriata maatete marĩ ihenya-inĩ makĩũra. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa maatũmĩtwo makĩhũndũka na magĩcookeria mũthamaki ũhoro ũcio.
And they went after them vnto Iorden, and loe, all the way was full of clothes and vessels which the Aramites had cast from them in their hast: and the messengers returned, and told ye King.
16 Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ makiumagara, magĩthiĩ na magĩtaha indo kambĩ-inĩ ya Asuriata. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kĩbaba kĩmwe kĩa mũtu kĩendagio cekeri ĩmwe, na ibaba igĩrĩ cia cairi ciendagio cekeri ĩmwe o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte.
Then the people went out and spoyled the campe of the Aramites: so a measure of fine floure was at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel according to the word of the Lord.
17 Na rĩrĩ, mũthamaki aigĩte mũnene ũrĩa wamũteithagia akorwo arĩ mũrũgamĩrĩri wa kĩhingo, nao andũ makĩmũrangĩrĩria hau kĩhingo-inĩ, agĩkua, o ta ũrĩa mũndũ wa Ngai oigĩte rĩrĩa mũthamaki aathiĩte gwake mũciĩ.
And the King gaue the prince (on whose hande he leaned) the charge of the gate, and the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed, as the man of God had saide, which spake it, when the King came downe to him.
18 Ũndũ ũcio wekĩkire o ta ũrĩa mũndũ wa Ngai eerĩte mũthamaki: “Ihinda o ta rĩĩrĩ rũciũ, kĩbaba kĩmwe kĩa mũtu gĩkeendio cekeri ĩmwe, nacio ibaba igĩrĩ cia cairi ikeendio cekeri ĩmwe kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa Samaria.”
And it came to passe, as the man of God had spoken to the King, saying, Two measures of barley at a shekel, and a measure of fine floure shall be at a shekel, to morowe about this time in the gate of Samaria.
19 Mũnene ũcio eerĩte mũndũ wa Ngai atĩrĩ, “O na Jehova angĩhingũra ndirica cia igũrũ-rĩ, ũndũ ũcio wahoteka?” Nake mũndũ wa Ngai aamũcookeirie atĩrĩ, “Nĩũkawona na maitho maku, no ndũkaarĩa o na kĩ!”
But the prince had answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, coulde it come so to passe? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.
20 Ũguo noguo gwekĩkire kũrĩ mũnene ũcio, nĩgũkorwo andũ maamũrangĩrĩirie hau kĩhingo-inĩ, agĩkua.
And so it came vnto him: for the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed.
