2 Sarakuna 4

1 Matar wani daga ƙungiyar annabawa ta yi wa Elisha kuka ta ce, “Mijina, bawanka, ya mutu, ka kuma san yadda ya girmama Ubangiji. Amma ga shi yanzu mai binsa bashi ya zo yă kwashe’ya’yana maza biyu su zama bayinsa.”

Now the wife of one of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant, my husband, is dead, and you know that your servant feared the LORD. And now his creditor is coming to take my two children as his slaves!”

2 Elisha ya amsa mata ya ce, “Me kike so in yi miki? Ki faɗa mini, me kike da shi a gidanki?” Sai ta ce, “Baiwarka ba ta da kome a can, sai ɗan tulun man zaitun.”

“How can I help you?” asked Elisha. “Tell me, what do you have in the house?” She answered, “Your servant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.”

3 Elisha ya ce, “Ki je wurin dukan maƙwabtanki, ki nemi tulunan da babu kome a ciki. Kada ki nemo kaɗan kawai.

“Go,” said Elisha, “borrow jars, even empty ones, from all your neighbors. Do not gather just a few.

4 Sa’an nan ki shiga ciki, ki kulle ƙofar da ke da’ya’yanki kuke ciki. Ku ɗuɗɗura man a dukan tulunan, sa’ad da kowanne ya cika, sai ki ajiye a gefe.”

Then go inside, shut the door behind you and your sons, and pour oil into all these jars, setting the full ones aside.”

5 Ta tashi ta shiga tare da’ya’yanta maza, suka kulle ƙofa.’Ya’yanta suka kawo mata tuluna, ita kuma tana ɗurawa.

So she left him, and after she had shut the door behind her and her sons, they kept bringing jars to her, and she kept pouring.

6 Da dukan tulunan suka cika, sai ta ce wa ɗanta, “Kawo mini wani tulu.” Amma ya amsa ya ce, “Ai, ba saura.” Sa’an nan man ya daina zuba.

When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another.” But he replied, “There are no more jars.” Then the oil stopped flowing.

7 Sai ta tafi ta faɗa wa mutumin Allah. Shi kuwa ya ce mata, “Tafi, ki sayar da man, ki biya bashinki. Ki biya bukatanki da na’ya’yanki da sauran da ya rage.”

She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt. Then you and your sons can live on the remainder.”

8 Wata rana Elisha ya tafi Shunem. Akwai wata mai arziki a can wadda ta gayyace shi cin abinci. Sai ya zama duk lokacin da yake wucewa, yakan tsaya a can don cin abinci.

One day Elisha went to Shunem, and a prominent woman who lived there persuaded him to have a meal. So whenever he would pass by, he would stop there to eat.

9 Ta ce wa mijinta, “Na san cewa wannan mutum da kullum yake zuwa nan mai tsarki ne na Allah.

Then the woman said to her husband, “Behold, now I know that the one who often comes our way is a holy man of God.

10 Bari mu yi ɗan ɗaki a rufin gida mu kuma sa masa gado da tebur da kujera da kuma fitila. Saboda a duk lokacin da ya zo wurinmu, sai yă sauka a can.”

Please let us make a small room upstairs and put in it a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him. Then when he comes to us, he can stay there.”

11 Wata rana da Elisha ya zo, sai ya haura ɗakinsa ya kwanta.

One day Elisha came to visit and went to his upper room to lie down.

12 Ya ce wa bawansa Gehazi, “Kira mutuniyar Shunam nan.” Sai ya kira ta, ta zo ta tsaya a gabansa.

And he said to Gehazi his servant, “Call the Shunammite woman.” And when he had called her, she stood before him,

13 Elisha ya ce masa, “Ka ce mata, ‘Kin yi duk wannan ɗawainiya saboda mu. Yanzu, me kike so a yi miki? Kina so mu yi magana a madadinki wa sarki ko babban hafsan mayaƙa?’” Sai ta ce, “A’a, ina da dukan abin da nake bukata a cikin jama’ata.”

and Elisha said to Gehazi, “Now tell her, ‘Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can we do for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?’” “I have a home among my own people,” she replied.

14 Sai Elisha ya tambayi Gehazi ya ce, “Me za mu yi mata?” Sai ya amsa ya ce, “Ba ta da ɗa, ga shi kuma mijinta ya tsufa.”

So he asked, “Then what should be done for her?” “Well, she has no son,” Gehazi replied, “and her husband is old.”

15 Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka kira ta.” Sai ya kira ta, ta zo ta tsaya a bakin ƙofa.

“Call her,” said Elisha. So Gehazi called her, and she stood in the doorway.

16 Elisha ya ce mata, “War haka baɗi, za ki riƙe ɗa na kanki.” Sai ta ce masa, “A’a, ranka yă daɗe, mutumin Allah, kada ka ruɗi baiwarka!”

And Elisha declared, “At this time next year, you will hold a son in your arms.” “No, my lord,” she said. “Do not lie to your maidservant, O man of God.”

17 Amma matan ta yi ciki, a shekara ta biye kuwa a daidai lokacin, sai ta haifi ɗa kamar yadda Elisha ya faɗa mata.

But the woman did conceive, and at that time the next year she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her.

18 Yaron ya yi girma, wata rana sai ya tafi wurin mahaifinsa, wanda yake tare da masu girbi.

And the child grew, and one day he went out to his father, who was with the harvesters.

19 Ba zato sai ya ce wa mahaifinsa, “Wayyo! Kaina yana mini ciwo! Kaina yana mini ciwo!” Sai mahaifinsa ya ce wa bawansa, “Kai shi wurin mahaifiyarsa.”

“My head! My head!” he complained to his father. So his father told a servant, “Carry him to his mother.”

20 Bayan bawan ya ɗaga shi ya kai wurin mahaifiyarsa, sai yaron ya zauna a cinyarta har tsakar rana, sa’an nan ya mutu.

After the servant had picked him up and carried him to his mother, the boy sat on her lap until noon, and then he died.

21 Sai ta haura ta shimfiɗa shi a gadon mutumin Allah, ta rufe ƙofar, ta fita.

And she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God. Then she shut the door and went out.

22 Ta kira mijinta ta ce, “Ina roƙonka ka aika mini da ɗaya daga cikin bayi da kuma jaka, don in yi sauri in je wurin mutumin Allah in dawo.”

And the woman called her husband and said, “Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may go quickly to the man of God and return.”

23 Sai ya ce, “Me zai kai ki wurinsa, ai, yau ba Sabon Wata ba ne ko ranar Asabbaci?” Sai ta ce, “Ba kome.”

“Why would you go to him today?” he replied. “It is not a New Moon or a Sabbath.” “Everything is all right,” she said.

24 Sai ta sa wa jakar sirdi ta ce wa bawanta, “Yi ta kora mini jakar, kada ka sassauta, sai na faɗa maka.”

Then she saddled the donkey and told her servant, “Drive onward; do not slow the pace for me unless I tell you.”

25 Ta haka ta kama hanya ta tafi wurin mutumin Allah a Dutsen Karmel. Da ya hange ta daga nesa, sai mutumin Allah ya ce wa bawansa Gehazi, “Duba! Ga mutuniyar Shunam nan can!

So she set out and went to the man of God at Mount Carmel. When the man of God saw her at a distance, he said to his servant Gehazi, “Look, there is the Shunammite woman.

26 Ka yi gudu ka tarye ta ka tambaye ta, ‘Lafiyarki? Mijinki yana nan lafiya? Yaronki yana nan lafiya?’” Ta amsa ta ce, “Kome lafiya yake.”

Please run out now to meet her and ask, ‘Are you all right? Is your husband all right? Is your child all right?’” And she answered, “Everything is all right.”

27 Da ta isa wurin mutumin Allah a dutsen, sai ta kama ƙafafunsa. Sai Gehazi ya zo don yă ture ta, amma mutumin Allah ya ce, “Ka bar ta! Tana cikin baƙin ciki ƙwarai, amma Ubangiji ya ɓoye mini, bai kuma faɗa mini me ya sa ba.”

When she reached the man of God at the mountain, she clung to his feet. Gehazi came over to push her away, but the man of God said, “Leave her alone, for her soul is in deep distress, and the LORD has hidden it from me and has not told me.”

28 Sai ta tambaya shi ta ce, “Na roƙe ka ɗa ne, ranka yă daɗe? Ba na ce maka, ‘Kada ka sa in fara bege ba’?”

Then she said, “Did I ask you for a son, my lord? Didn’t I say, ‘Do not deceive me?’”

29 Elisha ya ce wa Gehazi, “Ka yi ɗamara, ka ɗauki sandana ka ruga a guje. Idan ka sadu da wani, kada ka gaishe shi, idan kuma wani ya gaishe ka, kada ka amsa. Ka shimfiɗa sandana a fuskar yaron.”

So Elisha said to Gehazi, “Tie up your garment, take my staff in your hand, and go! If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not answer him. Then lay my staff on the boy’s face.”

30 Amma mahaifiyar yaron ta ce, “Muddin Ubangiji yana raye, kai kuma kana a raye, ba zan bar ka ba.” Saboda haka ya tashi ya bi ta.

And the mother of the boy said, “As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So he got up and followed her.

31 Gehazi ya yi gaba, ya shimfiɗa sandan a fuskar yaron, amma babu motsi, babu alamar rai. Saboda haka Gehazi ya koma ya taryi Elisha, ya faɗa masa, “Yaron bai tashi ba.”

Gehazi went on ahead of them and laid the staff on the boy’s face, but there was no sound or response. So he went back to meet Elisha and told him, “The boy has not awakened.”

32 Da Elisha ya isa gidan, sai ga gawar yaron kwance a kan gadonsa.

When Elisha reached the house, there was the boy lying dead on his bed.

33 Sai ya shiga, ya rufe ƙofa, daga shi sai yaron, ya kuma yi addu’a ga Ubangiji.

So he went in, closed the door behind the two of them, and prayed to the LORD.

34 Sa’an nan ya hau gadon yă kwanta a bisa yaron, ya miƙe a kansa, baki da baki, ido da ido, hannu da hannu. Yayinda ya miƙe kansa a kan yaron, sai jikin yaron ya ɗau ɗumi.

Then Elisha got on the bed and lay on the boy, mouth to mouth, eye to eye, and hand to hand. As he stretched himself out over him, the boy’s body became warm.

35 Elisha ya tashi, ya yi ta kai komo a cikin ɗakin. Sa’an nan ya sāke koma kan gadon yă miƙe a kan yaron, sai yaron ya yi atishawa sau bakwai, ya kuma buɗe idanunsa.

Elisha turned away and paced back and forth across the room. Then he got on the bed and stretched himself out over the boy again, and the boy sneezed seven times and opened his eyes.

36 Elisha ya kira Gehazi ya ce, “Kirawo mutuniyar Shunam.” Ya kuwa kira ta. Sa’ad da ta zo, sai Elisha ya ce mata, “Ɗauki ɗanki.”

Elisha summoned Gehazi and said, “Call the Shunammite woman.” So he called her and she came. Then Elisha said, “Pick up your son.”

37 Sai ta shiga, ta fāɗi a ƙafafunsa ta rusuna har ƙasa. Sa’an nan ta ɗauki ɗanta ta fita.

She came in, fell at his feet, and bowed to the ground. Then she picked up her son and went out.

38 Sai Elisha ya koma Gilgal, a can kuwa ana yunwa a yankin. Yayinda ƙungiyar annabawa suke tattaunawa da shi, sai ya ce wa Gehazi bawansa, “Ka sa babban tukunya a wuta, ka yi wa mutanen nan fate.”

When Elisha returned to Gilgal, there was a famine in the land. As the sons of the prophets were sitting at his feet, he said to his attendant, “Put on the large pot and boil some stew for the sons of the prophets.”

39 Ɗaya daga cikin mutanen ya shiga gona don neman ganyaye, ya kuwa sami kabewar jeji. Ya tsinko’ya’yanta cike da shafin rigarsa. Da ya dawo, sai ya yayyanka su ya zuba a cikin tukunyar faten, ko da yake ba wanda ya san ko mene ne.

One of them went out to the field to gather herbs, and he found a wild vine from which he gathered as many wild gourds as his garment could hold. Then he came back and cut them up into the pot of stew, though no one knew what they were.

40 Sai aka zuba wa mutanen faten, amma da suka fara ci, sai suka yi ihu suna cewa, “Ya mutumin Allah, akwai dafi a cikin tukunyan nan!” Suka kuwa kāsa ci.

And they poured it out for the men to eat, but when they tasted the stew they cried out, “There is death in the pot, O man of God!” And they could not eat it.

41 Elisha ya ce, “Samo mini ɗan gari.” Aka kawo masa ya kuma sa a cikin tukunyan ya ce, “Raba wa mutanen su ci.” Ya kasance kuwa babu wani abin damuwa a tukunyar.

Then Elisha said, “Get some flour.” He threw it into the pot and said, “Pour it out for the people to eat.” And there was nothing harmful in the pot.

42 Sai ga wani mutum ya zo daga Ba’al-Shalisha, ya kawo wa Elisha dunƙulen burodi guda ashirin na sha’ir da aka gasa daga nunan fari na hatsi, tare da kawunan sababbin hatsi. Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka ba mutanen su ci.”

Now a man from Baal-shalishah came to the man of God with a sack of twenty loaves of barley bread from the first ripe grain. “Give it to the people to eat,” said Elisha.

43 Sai bawansa ya ce, “Yaya zan raba wa mutane ɗari wannan?” Amma Elisha ya amsa ya ce, “Ka raba wa mutane su ci, gama haka Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Za su ci har su bar saura.’”

But his servant asked, “How am I to set twenty loaves before a hundred men?” “Give it to the people to eat,” said Elisha, “for this is what the LORD says: ‘They will eat and have some left over.’”

44 Sa’an nan ya ajiye a gabansu, suka kuwa ci har suka bar saura, bisa ga maganar Ubangiji.

So he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of the LORD.
