2 Wa 7
1 Epi Élisée te di: “Koute pawòl SENYÈ a. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: ‘Demen vè lè sa a, yon mezi farin fen va vann pou yon sik, e de mezi lòj pou yon sik nan pòtay Samarie a.’”
Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To-morrow about this time [shall] a measure of fine flour [be sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
2 Ofisye wayal la sou men a sila wa a te apiye a te reponn nonm Bondye a. Li te di: “Gade byen, menm si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske bagay sa a ta kab rive?” Konsa, Élisée te reponn: “Gade byen, ou va wè l ak pwòp zye pa w, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, [if] the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see [it] with thy eyes, but shalt not eat of it.
3 Alò, te genyen kat mesye lalèp nan antre pòtay la. Yo te di youn ak lòt: “Poukisa n ap chita la jiskaske nou mouri?
And there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
4 Si nou di: ‘N ap antre nan vil la’, alò grangou nan vil la, nou va mouri la. Epi si nou chita isit la, nou va mouri tou. Pou sa, vini, annou janbe lòtbò nan kan Siryen yo. Si yo lese nou viv, nou va viv; epi si yo touye nou, nou p ap gen plis pase mouri.”
If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine [is] in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall to the army of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
5 Konsa, yo te leve avan l fènwa pou ale nan kan Siryen yo, epi gade byen, pa t gen moun la.
And they rose in the twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians: and when they had come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, [there was] no man there.
6 Paske SENYÈ a te fè lame Siryen an tande bwi a cha yo avèk bwi cheval yo, son a yon gwo lame, jiskaske yo te di youn ak lòt: “Men gade, wa Israël la gen tan mete an sèvis kont nou wa Etyen yo avèk wa Ejipsyen yo pou yo vini sou nou.”
For the LORD had made the army of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, [even] the noise of a great army: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
7 Pou sa, yo te leve kouri pandan tenèb la t ap pwoche e te kite tant yo avèk cheval yo avèk bourik yo ak kan an, jis jan ke li te ye a pou te sove ale e sove lavi yo.
Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it [was], and fled for their life.
8 Lè moun lalèp sa yo te rive nan landwa kan an, yo te antre nan yon tant pou te manje ak bwè e yo te pote soti la, ajan avèk lò avèk rad pou te ale sere yo. Epi yo te tounen antre nan yon lòt tant pou te pote soti la tou pou te ale sere yo.
And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid [it]; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence [also], and went and hid [it].
9 Men konsa, yo te pale youn ak lòt: “Nou pa fè byen. Jou sa a se yon jou bòn nouvèl, men nou rete an silans. Si nou tann jis rive maten an, pinisyon va vin rive sou nou. Alò, pou sa, annou ale pale moun lakay wa a.”
Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day [is] a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.
10 Konsa, yo te antre e yo te rele gadyen pòtay lavil yo pou te pale yo e te di: “Nou te rive nan kan Siryen yo e vwala, pa t gen moun la, ni menm vwa a yon moun, men sèlman cheval ki te mare ak bourik mare e tant yo menm jan yo te ye.”
So they came and called to the porter of the city: and they told him, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and behold, [there was] no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they [were].
11 Gadyen pòtay yo te rele pale anndan kay wa a.
And he called the porters; and they told [it] to the king's house within.
12 Wa a te leve nan lannwit lan e li te di a sèvitè li yo: “Mwen va pale ou koulye a sa ke Siryen yo gen tan fè. Yo konnen ke nou grangou; pou sa, yo te kite kan an pou kache yo menm nan chan an. Y ap di: ‘Lè yo sòti lavil la, nou va kaptire yo vivan e antre nan vil la.’”
And the king arose in the night, and said to his servants, I will now show you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we [are] hungry; therefore they have gone out of the camp, to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.
13 Youn nan sèvitè li yo te di: “Souple, kite kèk moun pran senk nan cheval ki rete lavil la. Gade byen, malgre nenpòt nan yo va menm jan ak tout rès foul moun ki rete ladann nan. Gade byen, yo tankou tout foul ki gen tan peri deja. Pou sa, annou voye gade.”
And one of his servants answered and said, Let [some] take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they [are] as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, [I say], they [are] even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed: ) and let us send and see.
14 Konsa, yo te pran de cha avèk cheval e wa a te voye yo dèyè lame Siryen an, e te di: “Ale gade.”
They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15 Yo te ale dèyè yo jis rive nan Jourdain an, e gade, tout chemen an te ranpli avèk rad ak ekipaj ke Siryen yo te jete nan sove ale. Alò, mesaje yo te retounen pou te pale wa a.
And they went after them to Jordan: and lo, all the way [was] full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
16 Konsa, pèp la te sòti e te piyaje kan Siryen an. Alò, yon mezi farin fen te vann pou yon sik e de mezi lòj pou yon sik, selon pawòl SENYÈ a.
And the people went out, and plundered the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was [sold] for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
17 Alò, wa a te chwazi menm ofisye wayal la, sou men a sila li te konn apiye a, pou pran chaj pòtay la; men pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la e li te vin mouri jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a, ki t ap pale pandan wa a te vin desann kote l la.
And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.
18 Li te vin rive jis jan ke nonm Bondye a te pale a wa a, lè l te di: “De mezi lòj pou yon sik e yon mezi farin fen pou yon sik, va vann demen vè lè sa a nan pòtay Samarie.”
And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to-morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:
19 Epi ofisye wayal la te reponn nonm Bondye a e te di: “Alò gade byen, Si SENYÈ a ta fè fenèt nan syèl la, èske yon bagay konsa ta kab rive?” Epi li te di: “Gade byen, ou va wè li avèk pwòp zye pa ou, men ou p ap manje ladann.”
And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, [if] the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but shalt not eat of it.
20 Epi se konsa sa te vin rive li, paske pèp la te foule li anba pye nan pòtay la, e li te vin mouri.
And so it happened to him: for the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died.
