1 Da lokaci ya yi da Ubangiji zai ɗauki Iliya zuwa sama cikin guguwa, Iliya da Elisha kuwa suna kan hanyarsu daga Gilgal.
Shortly before the LORD took Elijah up to heaven in a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal,
2 Sai Iliya ya ce wa Elisha, “Ka dakata a nan; Ubangiji ya aike ni Betel.” Amma Elisha ya amsa ya ce, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, kai kuma kana a raye, ba zan rabu da kai ba.” Saboda haka suka gangara zuwa Betel.
and Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent me on to Bethel.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel.
3 Sai ƙungiyar annabawa a Betel suka fito zuwa wajen Elisha suka ce masa, “Ka san cewa Ubangiji zai ɗauki maigidanka daga wurinka yau?” Sai ya ce, “I, na sani, amma kada ku yi magana game da wannan.”
Then the sons of the prophets at Bethel came out to Elisha and said, “Do you know that the LORD will take your master away from you today?” “Yes, I know,” he replied. “Do not speak of it.”
4 Sai Iliya ya ce masa, “Ka dakata a nan Elisha; Ubangiji ya aike ni Yeriko.” Sai ya ce masa, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, kai ma kana a raye, ba zan rabu da kai ba.” Saboda haka sai suka tafi Yeriko.
And Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent me on to Jericho.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So they went to Jericho.
5 Ƙungiyar annabawa a Yeriko suka haura zuwa wajen Elisha suka ce, “Ko ka san Ubangiji zai ɗauki maigidanka daga gare ka yau?” Sai ya ce, “I, na sani, amma ku bar zancen nan tukuna.”
Then the sons of the prophets at Jericho came up to Elisha and said, “Do you know that the LORD will take your master away from you today?” “Yes, I know,” he replied. “Do not speak of it.”
6 Sai Iliya ya ce masa, “Ka dakata a nan, Ubangiji ya aike ni Urdun.” Sai Elisha ya ce masa, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, kai kuma kana raye, ba zan rabu da kai ba.” Saboda haka suka ci gaba da tafiya tare.
And Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent me on to the Jordan.” But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So the two of them went on.
7 Mutum hamsin na ƙungiyar annabawa suka je suka tsaya da nisa, suna fuskantar inda Iliya da Elisha suka tsaya a Urdun.
Then a company of fifty of the sons of the prophets went and stood at a distance, facing Elijah and Elisha as the two of them stood by the Jordan.
8 Sai Iliya ya tuɓe rigarsa, ya nannaɗe ya bugi ruwan Urdun da shi. Sai ruwan ya dāre gida biyu, suka haye a busasshiyar ƙasa.
And Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up, and struck the waters, which parted to the right and to the left, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
9 Da suka haye, sai Iliya ya ce wa Elisha, “Faɗi mini, abin da kake so in yi maka kafin a ɗauke ni daga gare ka!” Elisha ya amsa ya ce, “Bari in gāji ninki biyu na ruhunka.”
After they had crossed over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken away from you?” “Please, let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,” Elisha replied.
10 Iliya ya ce, “Ka nemi abu mai wuya, amma in ka ga lokacin da aka ɗauke ni daga gare ka, zai zama naka, in ba haka ba, ba za ka samu ba ke nan.”
“You have requested a difficult thing,” said Elijah. “Nevertheless, if you see me as I am taken from you, it will be yours. But if not, then it will not be so.”
11 Yayinda suke tafiya suna magana, sai kwatsam, keken yaƙin wuta da dawakan wuta suka ratse tsakaninsu, sai Iliya ya tafi sama a cikin guguwa.
As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire with horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up into heaven in a whirlwind.
12 Da Elisha ya ga haka sai ya yi ihu yana cewa, “Babana! Babana! Kekunan yaƙin da mahayan dawakan Isra’ila!” Elisha kuwa bai sāke ganinsa ba. Sai ya kama tufafinsa ya yayyage.
As Elisha watched, he cried out, “My father, my father, the chariots and horsemen of Israel!” And he saw Elijah no more. So taking hold of his own clothes, he tore them in two.
13 Sai ya ɗauki rigar da ta fāɗo daga Iliya ya koma ya tsaya a gaɓar Kogin Urdun.
Elisha also picked up the cloak that had fallen from Elijah, and he went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan.
14 Sa’an nan Elisha ya ɗauki rigar da ta fāɗo daga Iliya ya bugi ruwan da shi. Ya ce, “Yanzu ina Ubangiji Allah na Iliya?” Da ya bugi ruwan sai ruwan ya dāre gida biyu, sai ya haye.
Then he took the cloak of Elijah that had fallen from him and struck the waters. “Where now is the LORD, the God of Elijah?” he asked. And when he had struck the waters, they parted to the right and to the left, and Elisha crossed over.
15 Ƙungiyar annabawa daga Yeriko, waɗanda suke kallo, suka ce, “Ruhun Iliya yana a kan Elisha.” Sai suka je su tarye shi, suka rusuna har ƙasa a gabansa.
When the sons of the prophets who were facing him from Jericho saw what had happened, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” And they went to meet him and bowed down to the ground before him.
16 Suka ce, “Duba, mu bayinka muna da masu ji da ƙarfi hamsin. Bari su je su nemi maigidanka. Wataƙila, Ruhun Ubangiji ya ɗauke shi ya ajiye bisa wani dutse, ko wani kwari.” Elisha ya ce, “A’a, kada ku aike su.”
“Look now,” they said to Elisha, “we your servants have fifty valiant men. Please let them go and search for your master. Perhaps the Spirit of the LORD has taken him up and put him on one of the mountains or in one of the valleys.” “Do not send them,” Elisha replied.
17 Amma suka matsa masa har ya ji ba ya iya hana su. Saboda haka ya ce, “Ku aike su.” Sai suka aiki mutane hamsin, suka yi ta nema har kwana uku amma ba su same Iliya ba.
But when they pressed him to the point of embarrassment, he said, “Send them.” And they sent fifty men, who searched for three days but did not find Elijah.
18 Da suka dawo wurin Elisha, wanda yake a Yeriko, sai ya ce musu, “Ban ce muku kada ku tafi ba?”
When they returned to Elisha, who was staying in Jericho, he said to them, “Didn’t I tell you not to go?”
19 Mutane garin suka ce wa Elisha, “Ranka yă daɗe, duba, garin yana da kyan gani, amma ruwan ba shi da kyau, ƙasar kuma ba ta ba da amfani.”
Then the men of the city said to Elisha, “Please note, our lord, that the city’s location is good, as you can see. But the water is bad and the land is unfruitful.”
20 Sai ya ce, “Ku kawo mini sabuwar ƙwarya, ku kuma sa gishiri a ciki.” Sai suka kawo masa.
“Bring me a new bowl,” he replied, “and put some salt in it.” So they brought it to him,
21 Sai ya tafi maɓulɓular ruwan yana watsa gishirin a ciki, yana cewa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Na warkar da ruwan nan. Ba zai ƙara jawo mutuwa, ko yă hana ƙasar ba da amfani ba.’”
and Elisha went out to the spring, cast the salt into it, and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘I have healed this water. No longer will it cause death or unfruitfulness.’”
22 Ruwan ya tsabtacce har yă zuwa yau, bisa ga faɗin Elisha.
And the waters there have been healthy to this day, according to the word spoken by Elisha.
23 Daga nan sai Elisha ya tafi Betel. Yayinda yake tafiya a hanya, sai waɗansu matasa suka fito daga cikin gari, suka yi masa dariya suna cewa, “Ka haura, ya kai mai kai marar gashi! Ka haura, kai mai kai marar gashi!”
From there, Elisha went up to Bethel, and as he was walking up the road, a group of boys came out of the city and jeered at him, chanting, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!”
24 Sai ya juya ya dube su, ya la’anta su da sunan Ubangiji. Sai beyar guda biyu suka fito daga jeji suka hallaka matasa arba’in da biyu daga cikinsu.
Then he turned around, looked at them, and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Suddenly two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.
25 Sai ya ci gaba zuwa Dutsen Karmel, daga can kuma ya koma Samariya.
And Elisha went on to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
