< 2 Sarakuna 2 >
1 Da lokaci ya yi da Ubangiji zai ɗauki Iliya zuwa sama cikin guguwa, Iliya da Elisha kuwa suna kan hanyarsu daga Gilgal.
And it came to pass, when Yahweh was about to take up Elijah in a storm into the heavens, that Elijah departed, with Elisha, 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.
Then said Elijah unto Elisha—Tarry here, I pray thee, for, Yahweh, hath sent me as far as Bethel. And Elisha said, By the life of Yahweh and by the life of thine own soul, I will not leave thee. 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.”
And the sons of the prophets who were in Bethel came forth unto Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that, to-day, Yahweh is taking away thy lord, from thy head? And he said—I also, know, be silent.
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.
Then Elijah said to him—Elisha, I pray thee, tarry here, for, Yahweh, hath sent me to Jericho. And he said—By the life of Yahweh and by the life of thine own soul, I will not leave thee. So they came 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 drew near the sons of the prophets who were in Jericho, unto Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that, to-day, Yahweh is taking away thy lord from thy head? And he said—I also, know; be silent.
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 him—Tarry here, I pray thee, for, Yahweh, hath sent me to the Jordan. And he said—By the life of Yahweh and by the life of thine own soul, I will not leave thee. So they two, went on.
7 Mutum hamsin na ƙungiyar annabawa suka je suka tsaya da nisa, suna fuskantar inda Iliya da Elisha suka tsaya a Urdun.
But, fifty men of the sons of the prophets, came, and stood over against them, afar off, —and, they two, 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.
Then Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided, hither and thither, —so that they two, passed 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.”
And it came to pass, as they went over, that, Elijah, said unto Elisha—Ask, what I shall do for thee, ere yet I be taken from thee. And Elisha said, Let there be, I pray thee, a double portion of thy spirit upon me.
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.”
And he said—Thou hast asked a hard thing, —if thou see me when taken from thee, thou shall have it, so, but, if not, thou shalt not have it.
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.
And it came to pass, as they were going on and on and talking, that lo! there was a chariot of fire, with horses of fire, which parted, those two, asunder, —and Elijah went up in a storm, into the heavens.
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.
And, as soon as Elisha saw it, he, began crying out—My father! my father! The chariots of Israel, and the horsemen thereof! But, when he could see him no longer, he took hold of his clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 Sai ya ɗauki rigar da ta fāɗo daga Iliya ya koma ya tsaya a gaɓar Kogin Urdun.
Then took he up the mantle of Elijah, which had fallen from him, —and returned and stood, on the brink 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.
and took the mantle of Elijah which had fallen from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is Yahweh, the God of Elijah? And, when, he also, smote the waters, they were divided, hither and thither, and Elisha, passed 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.
And, when the sons of the prophets who were in Jericho, over against him, saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah, resteth, on Elisha. So they came to meet him, and bowed themselves down to him, to the ground.
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.”
Then said they unto him—Lo! we pray thee, there are with thy servants fifty men, sons of valour—let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy lord, lest the Spirit of Yahweh have borne him away, and cast him on one of the mountains, or into one of the valleys. And he said—Ye shall not send.
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 urged him until he was ashamed, he said—Send. So they sent fifty men, and made search three days, but found him not.
18 Da suka dawo wurin Elisha, wanda yake a Yeriko, sai ya ce musu, “Ban ce muku kada ku tafi ba?”
And, when they came back unto him, he, having tarried at Jericho, he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Do not 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.”
And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Lo! we pray thee, the situation of the city, is good, as, my lord, seeth, —but, the waters, are bad, and, the land, apt to miscarry.
20 Sai ya ce, “Ku kawo mini sabuwar ƙwarya, ku kuma sa gishiri a ciki.” Sai suka kawo masa.
And he said—Bring me a new bowl, and put therein, salt. So they brought it unto 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 he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast therein, saith, —and said—Thus, saith Yahweh, I have healed these waters; there shall come from thence, no longer, death or aptness to miscarry.
22 Ruwan ya tsabtacce har yă zuwa yau, bisa ga faɗin Elisha.
So the waters were healed, [as they remain] unto this day, —according to the word of Elisha which he spake.
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!”
And he went up from thence, to Bethel, —and, as he was going up on the way, some lads, came forth, out of the city, and made mockery of him, and said to him, Go up, bald head! Go up, bald head!
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.
And, when he turned round and saw them, he cursed them, in the name of Yahweh, —and there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tare, of them, forty-two youths.
25 Sai ya ci gaba zuwa Dutsen Karmel, daga can kuma ya koma Samariya.
And he went from thence, unto Mount Carmel, —and, from thence, he returned, to Samaria.
