< 2 Wa 2 >

1 Li te vin rive lè SENYÈ a te prèt pou ranmase Élie monte nan syèl nan yon van toubiyon, ke Élie te ale avèk Élisée sòti Guilgal.
And it was when took up Yahweh Elijah by the whirlwind the heavens and he went Elijah and Elisha from Gilgal.
2 Epi li te rive ke Élie te di a Élisée: “Rete isit la, souple; paske SENYÈ a te voye mwen jis Béthel.” Men Élisée te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la e jan ou menm viv la, mwen p ap kite ou.” Konsa, yo te desann Béthel.
And he said Elijah to Elisha remain please here for Yahweh he has sent me to Beth-el and he said Elisha [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your if I will leave you and they went down Beth-el.
3 Alò, fis a pwofèt ki te Béthel yo te vin sòti kote Élisée e te di li: “Èske ou konnen ke SENYÈ a va pran mèt ou a soti anwo ou jodi a?” Konsa, li te di: “Wi, mwen konnen. Pa pale!”
And they came out [the] sons of the prophets who [were at] Beth-el to Elisha and they said to him ¿ do you know that this day Yahweh [is] about to take master your from over head your and he said also I I know be silent.
4 Élie te di li: “Élisée, souple, rete isit la, paske SENYÈ a te voye mwen Jéricho.” Men li te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, mwen p ap kite ou”. Konsa, yo te vini Jéricho.
And he said to him Elijah O Elisha - remain please here for Yahweh he has sent me Jericho and he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your if I will leave you and they went Jericho.
5 Fis a pwofèt ki te Jéricho yo te vin kote Élisée e te di li: “Èske ou konnen ke SENYÈ a va retire mèt ou a soti anwo ou jodi a?” Li te reponn: “Wi, mwen konnen; pa pale.”
And they drew near [the] sons of the prophets who [were] at Jericho to Elisha and they said to him ¿ do you know that this day Yahweh [is] about to take master your from over head your and he said also I I know be silent.
6 Konsa, Élie te di li: “Souple, rete isit la, paske SENYÈ a te voye mwen nan Jourdain an.” Li te reponn: “Jan Senyè a viv la e jan ou menm viv la, mwen p ap kite ou.” Konsa yo de a te avanse.
And he said to him Elijah remain please here for Yahweh he has sent me the Jordan towards and he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your if I will leave you and they went [the] two of them.
7 Alò senkant mesye nan fis a pwofèt yo te ale kanpe anfas yo nan yon distans, pandan yo de a te kanpe akote Jourdain an.
And fifty man from [the] sons of the prophets they went and they stood from before from a distance and [the] two of them they stood at the Jordan.
8 Élie te pran manto li, li te pliye li ansanm, li te frape dlo yo e yo te vin divize isit e la, jiskaske yo de a te travèse sou tè sèch.
And he took Elijah cloak his and he folded it up and he struck the waters and they were divided hither and hither and they passed over [the] two of them on the dry ground.
9 Lè yo te fin travèse, Élie te di a Élisée: “Mande sa ke m ta fè pou ou avan mwen retire m de ou.” Konsa, Élisée te di: “Souple, kite yon pòsyon doub nan lespri ou a rete sou mwen.”
And it was when had passed over they and Elijah he said to Elisha ask what? will I do for you before I will be taken from with you and he said Elisha and may it be please a mouth of two in spirit your to me.
10 Li te di: “Ou te mande yon bagay ki difisil. Si ou wè m lè m retire kite ou, se konsa l ap ye pou ou; men si se pa sa, sa p ap fèt.”
And he said you have made difficult to ask if you will see me taken from with you may it be to you thus and if not not it will be.
11 Pandan yo t ap fè wout yo e t ap prale, men vwala, yon cha dife avèk cheval dife te separe yo de a. Konsa, Élie te monte nan yon toubiyon nan syèl la.
And it was they [were] walking continuously and speaking and there! a chariot of fire and horses of fire and they separated between [the] two of them and he went up Elijah (in the whirlwind *LAB(h)*) the heavens.
12 Élisée te wè e te kriye fò: “Papa m, papa m, cha Israël yo avèk chevalye li yo!” Epi li pa t wè Élie ankò. Alò, li te kenbe rad li e te chire li an de bout.
And Elisha [was] seeing and he [was] crying out O father my - father my [the] chariotry of Israel and horsemen its and not he saw him again and he took hold on clothes his and he tore them into two pieces.
13 Anplis, li te pran manto Élie ki te sòti tonbe de li, lè l t ap prale a, e li te retounen kanpe akote rebò larivyè Jourdain an.
And he took up [the] cloak of Elijah which it had fallen from on him and he went back and he stood on [the] bank of the Jordan.
14 Li te pran manto Élie ki te tonbe de li menm nan, e li te frape dlo yo e te di: “Kote SENYÈ a, Bondye Élie a?” Epi lè l te frape dlo a ankò, yo te divize isit e la, epi Élisée te travèse rive lòtbò.
And he took [the] cloak of Elijah which it had fallen from on him and he struck the waters and he said where? [is] Yahweh [the] God of Elijah also he - and he struck the waters and they were divided hither and hither and he passed over Elisha.
15 Alò, lè fis a pwofèt ki te Jéricho yo te wè li, yo te di: “Lespri Élie a poze sou Élisée.” Epi yo te vin rankontre li e te bese yo menm atè devan li.
And they saw him [the] sons of the prophets who [were] at Jericho from before and they said it has rested [the] spirit of Elijah on Elisha and they came to meet him and they bowed down to him [the] ground towards.
16 Yo te di li: “Men vwala, genyen avèk ou senkant sèvitè ak gwo fòs, souple, kite yo ale chache mèt ou a. Petèt lespri a SENYÈ a te pran li e te jete li sou yon mòn, oswa nan yon vale.” Li te di: “Ou p ap voye yo.”
And they said to him here! please there with servants your [are] fifty men sons of ability let them go please so they may search for master your lest it has carried off him [the] spirit of Yahweh and it has cast him on one of the mountains or in one of (the valleys *Q(k)*) and he said not you must send.
17 Men lè yo te bourade li jiskaske li te wont, li te di yo: “Voye yo”. Konsa, yo te voye senkant mesye. Yo te chache pandan twa jou, men yo pa t jwenn li.
And they urged him until was ashamed and he said send [them] and they sent out fifty man and they searched three days and not they found him.
18 Yo te retounen kote li pandan li te rete Jéricho a. Li te di yo: “Èske mwen pa t di nou ‘Pa ale’?”
And they returned to him and he [was] remaining in Jericho and he said to them ¿ not did I say to you may not you go.
19 Konsa, mesye lavil yo te di a Élisée: “Gade byen koulye a, sikonstans vil sa a byen bon, jan mèt mwen konn wè a; men dlo a pa bon e tè a pa pwodwi anyen.”
And they said [the] people of the city to Elisha here! please [the] location of the city [is] good just as lord my [is] seeing and the waters [are] bad and the land [is] causing abortions.
20 Li te di: “Mennen ban m yon veso nèf e mete sèl ladann.” Konsa, yo te mennen ba li.
And he said fetch for me a jar new and put there salt and they took [it] to him.
21 Li te ale nan sous dlo a. Li te jete sèl la ladann e te di: “Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Mwen te pirifye dlo sa yo! P ap gen lanmò ni move tè a ankò.’”
And he went out to [the] outlet of the waters and he threw there salt and he said thus he says Yahweh I have healed the waters these not it will be from there again death and abortion.
22 Konsa, dlo yo rete bon jis jodi a, selon pawòl Élisée te pale a.
And they have been healed the waters until the day this according to [the] word of Elisha which he spoke.
23 Alò, soti la, li te monte Béthel. Pandan li t ap monte nan chemen an, jenn gason yo te sòti deyò soti lavil la. Yo te moke li e te di li: “Ale monte, tèt chòv! Ale monte, tèt chòv!”
And he went up from there Beth-el and he - [was] going up on the way and lads young they came out from the city and they derided him and they said to him go up O bald [man] go up O bald [man].
24 Lè li te gade dèyè li pou l te wè yo, li te modi yo nan non SENYÈ a. Konsa, de lous femèl te sòti nan forè a, e te chire karann-de nan jenn gason pami yo.
And he turned behind him and he saw them and he cursed them in [the] name of Yahweh and they came out two [female] bears from the forest and they tore in pieces of them forty and two boys.
25 Li te kite la pou rive Mòn Carmel, e soti la, li te rive Samarie.
And he went from there to [the] mountain of Carmel and from there he returned Samaria.
