II Na Lii 6
1 OLELO aku la na haumana a ka poe kaula ia Elisai, Aia hoi, ano o kahi a kakou e noho pu nei me oe, ua pilikia ia kakou.
And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, —See, we pray thee, the place wherein we sit before thee, is too strait for us.
2 Ke noi aku nei, e ae mai oe, e hele makou i Ioredane, a e lawe kela kanaka keia kanaka, mailaila mai, i kahi laau, a e hana kakou malaila i wahi no kakou e noho ai. I mai la kela, E hele oukou.
Let us go, we pray thee, as far as the Jordan, and fetch from thence every man a single beam, and let us make us a place wherein we may sit. And he said—Go ye.
3 A i aku la kekahi, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai oe i ka hele pu me makou. I mai la ia, E hele no wau.
Then said one—Be content, we pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he said—I myself, will go.
4 A hele pu aku la ia me lakou. A hiki lakou ma Ioredane, a kua laau lakou.
So he went with them, —and, when they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.
5 A i ke kua laau ana a kekahi, poholo aku la ke koi iloko o ka wai: auwe iho la ia, i aku la, Auwe, e ka haku! no ka mea, no hai ia mea.
And it came to pass, as one was felling a branch, that, the axe-head, fell into the water, so he made outcry and said—Alas! my lord, for, it, was borrowed!
6 Ninau aku la ke kanaka o ke Akua, Mahea i poholo ai? Hoike mai la ia i kahi. A oki iho la ia i kahi laau, a hoolei iho la malaila, a laua mai ke koi.
And the man of God said—Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a piece of wood and cast it in thither, and the iron did swim.
7 I aku la ia ia, E lawe mai ia nou. Kikoo aku la kona lima, a lawe mai ia mea.
And he said—Take it up to thee. So he put forth his hand, and took it.
8 A kaua mai ke alii o Suria i ka Iseraela, a olelo pu ia me kana poe kauwa, i aku la, Ma kela wahi ka'u e hoomoana'i.
Now, the king of Syria, was making war against Israel, —so he took counsel with his servants, saying—In such and such a place, shall be my encampment.
9 A hoouna aku la ke kanaka o ke Akua i ke alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, E malama oe, mai hele oe ma kela wahi; no ka mea, ua iho mai ko Suria malaila.
The man of God, therefore, sent unto the king of Israel, saying—Beware of passing by this place, —for, thither, are the Syrians coming down.
10 Hoouna aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela i kela wahi a ke kanaka o ke Akua i hai mai ai ia ia, a i hoakaka mai ai ia ia, a malama kela ia ia iho malaila, aole i kekahi manawa, aole hoi i elua wale no.
So the king of Israel sent unto the place whereof the man of God had spoken to him and warned him, and was on his guard there, —not once nor twice
11 A pihoihoi ka naau o ke alii o Suria uo keia mea; a kahea aku la ia i kana poe kauwa, i aku la ia lakou, Aole anei oukou e hai mai ia'u, owai ka mea o kakou i launa pu me ke alii o ka Iseraela?
Then was the heart of the king of Syria disquieted concerning this thing, —and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not tell me, who of our men are for the king of Israel?
12 I mai la kekahi o na kauwa, Aole, e kuu haku e ke alii; aka, o Elisai ke kaula iloko o ka Iseraela, ka mea nana e hai aku i ke alii o ka Iseraela i na mea au i olelo ai maloko o kou keena moe.
Then said one of his servants, None, my lord O king, —but, Elisha, the prophet, who is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words which thou speakest in thy bed-chamber.
13 I aku la ia, E hele oukou a ike i kona wahi, i hoouna aku ai au e kii ia ia. A haiia mai ia ia, Aia no ia ma Dotana.
And he said—Go, and see where he is, that I may send and take him. And it was told him, saying—Lo! in Dothan.
14 Hoouna aku la ia malaila i na lio, a me na halekaa, a me ka poe koa, he nui: a hele aku lakou i ka po, a hoopuni ae la i ke kulanakauhale.
Therefore sent he thither—horses and chariots, and a strong force, —and they came in by night, and encompassed the city.
15 A i ke ala ana o ke kauwa a ke kanaka o ke Akua i kakahiaka nui, a hele iwaho, aia hoi, ua puni ke kulanakauhale i ka poe kaua, i na lio, a me na halekaa: i aku la kana kauwa ia ia, Auwe, e kuu haku! pehea la e hanaia'i?
And, when the attendant of the man of God arose early and went forth, lo! a force surrounding the city, with horses and chariots. Then said his young man unto him—Alas! my lord, what shall we do?
16 I mai la ia, Mai makau oe; no ka mea, ua oi aku ka poe me kakou, mamua o ka poe me lakou.
And he said—Do not fear, —for, more, are, they who are with us, than, they who are with them.
17 A pule aku la o Elisai, i aku la, E Iehova, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e wehe ae oe i kona maka, i ike ia. A wehe ae la o Iehova i na maka o ke kanaka opiopio, a ike aku la ia, aia hoi, na paapu ka mauna i na lio, a me na halekaa ahi, a puni o Elisai.
Then prayed Elisha, and said, O Yahweh! open, I beseech thee, his eyes, that he may see. And Yahweh opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and lo! the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire, round about Elisha.
18 A iho mai lakou io na la, pule aku la o Elisai ia Iehova, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hahau mai oe i keia poe kanaka i ka makapo. A hahau mai la ia ia lakou i ka makapo, e like me ka olelo a Elisai.
And, when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto Yahweh, and said—Smite, I beseech thee, this people, with sudden blindness. And he smote them with sudden blindness, according to the word of Elisha.
19 I aku la o Elisai ia lakou, Aole keia ke ala, aole hoi keia ke kulanakauhale; e hahai oukou ia'u, a e alakai aku au ia oukou i ke kanaka a oukou e imi nei; aka, alakai no ia ia lakou i Samaria.
Then Elisha said unto them—This, is not the way, neither is, this, the city, follow me, that I may lead you unto the man, whom ye would secure! So he led them to Samaria.
20 A hiki lakou i Samaria, i aku la o Elisai, E Iehova, e hookaakaa ae oe i ko lakou nei maka, i ike ai lakou. A hookaakaa ae la o Iehova i ko lakou maka, a ike lakou, aia hoi lakou iwaena konu o Samaria.
And it came to pass, when they had entered Samaria, that Elisha said, O Yahweh! open the eyes of these men, that they may see! And Yahweh opened their eyes, and they saw, and lo! they were in the midst of Samaria!
21 I mai la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Elisai, i kona ike ana ia lakou, E kuu makua, e pepehi anei au? e pepehi anei au ia lakou?
Then said the king of Israel unto Elisha, when he saw them, —Shall I smite—shall I smite, my father?
22 I aku la ia, Mai pepehi oe: e pono anei e pepehi i na mea au i lawe pio ai mo kau pahikaua a me kou kakaka? E kau i ka ai, a me ka wai imua o lakou, i ai ai lakou, a i inu hoi, a hoi aku i ko lakou haku.
And he said—Thou shalt not smite. Them whom thou hadst taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow, wouldst, thou, have been smiting? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go their way unto their lord.
23 A hoomakaukau iho la ia i ahaaina nui na lakou, a pau ka lakou ai ana, a me ka inu ana, hookuu aku la ia ia lakou, a hele aku la lakou i ko lakou haku. Aole i hele hou mai ka poe hao wale o Suria i ka aina o ka Iseraela.
And he made for them a great feast, and, when they had eaten and drunk, he let them go, and they went their way unto their lord. So then, troops of Syrians came again, no more, into the land of Israel.
24 A mahope iho hoakoakoa ae la o Benehadada, ke alii o Suria, i kona poe kaua a pau, a pii mai la e hoopilikia i Samaria.
But it came to pass, after this, that Ben-hadad king of Syria gathered together all his host, —and came up and laid siege against Samaria.
25 A ua wi nui iloko o Samaria: aia hoi hoopilikia lakou ia, a kuaiia ke poo o ka hoki i kanawalu sekela kala, a hookahi hapaha o ke kaba lepo manu nunu i na sekela kala elima.
And there came to be, a great famine, in Samaria, and lo! they continued the siege against it, —until an ass’s head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and one pint of dove’s dung for five pieces of silver.
26 A i ka hele ana ae o ke alii o ka Iseraela maluna o ka papohaku, kahea mai la kekahi wahine ia ia, i mai la, E kokua mai, e kuu haku, e ke alii.
And so it was that, as the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman, made outcry unto him, saying—Save, my lord, O king!
27 I aku la ia, a i ole o Iehova e kokua mai ia oe, ma ka mea hea anei e kokua aku ai au ia oe? ma kahi e hehi ai i ka palaoa anei, a ma kahi e kaomi ai i ka waina anei?
And he said—If Yahweh do not save thee, whence should I save thee? out of the threshing-floor or out of the wine-press?
28 Ninau aku ke alii ia ia, Heaha kau? I mai la kela, Ua i mai keia wahine ia'u, E haawi mai i kau keiki, i ai iho ai kaua i keia la, a e ai iho kaua i ka'u keiki i ka la apopo.
And the king said to her—What aileth thee? And she said—This woman, said unto me—Give thy son, that we may eat him, to-day, and, my son, will we eat to-morrow.
29 Hoolapalapa iho la maua i ka'u keiki, a ua ai iho, a i aku la au ia ia i kekahi la, e haawi mai oe i kau keiki; a ua huna ia i kana keiki.
So we cooked my son, and did eat him, —and I said unto her, on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him; But she had hid her son.
30 A lohe ae la ke alii i ka olelo a ka wahine, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu; a hele ae la ia maluna o ka papohaku, a nana mai la na kanaka, aia hoi, he kapa inoino maluna o kona kino maloko.
And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes, while yet he was passing by upon the wall, —so the people looked, and lo! sackcloth upon his flesh, within.
31 I aku la ia, E hana mai ke Akua ia'u pela, a e oi aku hoi, ke waihoia ko poo o Elisai, ke keiki a Sapata, maluna ona i keia la.
And he said—So, let God do to me, and, so, let him add, —if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remain on him, to-day!
32 A e noho ana o Elisai iloko o kona hale, a e noho pu ana me ia na lunakahiko; a hoouna aku ke alii i ke kanaka mai kona alo aku: aka, mamua o ka hiki ana'ku o ke elele io na la, i mai la ia i na lunakahiko, E nana oukou ua hoouna mai nei keia keiki a ka mea pepehi kanaka e lawe i kuu poo: e nana, i ka manawa e hele mai ai ke elele, e pani aku i ka puka, a e hoopaa aku oukou ia ia ma ka puka: aole anei e kani ana na wawae o kona haku mahope ona?
Now, Elisha, being seated in his house, and, the elders, seated with him, —when he had sent a man from before him, ere yet the messenger could come in unto him, he himself, said unto the elders—Do ye see how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away my head? See! when the messenger is coming in, close ye the door, and press him back with the door, is not the sound of his lord’s feet behind him?
33 A i kana kamailio ana me lakou, aia hoi, hiki mai ke elele io na la, i mai la, Aia hoi, no Iehova mai keia ino; no ke aha la au e kali hou aku ai ia Iehova?
While yet he was speaking with them, lo! the messenger, coming down unto him, —and he said, —Lo! this, is a calamity from Yahweh, why should I wait for Yahweh, any longer?
