II Na Lii 7

1 I MAI la o Elisai, E hoolohe oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Ma keia manawa i ka la apopo, e lilo kekahi bakeke palaoa no ka sekela hookahi, a elua bakeke bale no ka sekela hookahi ma ka ipuka o Samaria.

And Elisha saith, 'Hear ye a word of Jehovah: thus said Jehovah, About this time to-morrow, a measure of fine flour [is] at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.'

2 Alaila kekahi luna kiai no ke alii ka mea ana i hilinai ai ma kona lima, olelo mai la ia i ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la, Aia hoi, ina e hana mai o Iehova i na puka ma ka Iani, e hiki mai anei keia mea? I aku la ia, E ike auanei kou mau maka, aka, aole oe e ai ia mea.

And the captain whom the king hath, by whose hand he hath been supported, answereth the man of God and saith, 'Lo, Jehovah is making windows in the heavens — shall this thing be?' and he saith, 'Lo, thou art seeing it with thine eyes, and thereof thou dost not eat.'

3 A eha kanaka lepera ma ke komo ana o ka ipuka; a i ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi, No ke aha la kakou e noho maanei, a make kakou?

And four men have been leprous, at the opening of the gate, and they say one unto another, 'What — we are sitting here till we have died;

4 A i olelo kakou, e komo iloko o ke kulanakauhale, aia hoi, maloko o ke kulanakauhale ka wi, a e make auanei kakou malaila: a i noho kakou maanei, e make kakou. Ano hoi, ea, e haule kakou i ka poe kaua o ko Suria, ina e hoola lakou ia kakou, ua ola; aka, ina e pepehi mai lakou ia kakou, ua make no hoi.

if we have said, We go in to the city, then the famine [is] in the city, and we have died there; and if we have sat here, then we have died; and now, come and we fall unto the camp of Aram; if they keep us alive, we live, and if they put us to death — we have died.'

5 Ku ae la lakou i ka wanaao e hele aku i kahi hoomoana o ko Suria: a hiki lakou ma ka palena o kahi hoomoana o ko Suria, aia hoi, aohe kanaka malaila.

And they rise in the twilight, to go in unto the camp of Aram, and they come in unto the extremity of the camp of Aram, and lo, there is not a man there,

6 No ka mea, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ka poe kaua o ko Suria i ka lohe i ka halulu o na halekaa, a me ka halulu o na lio, ka halulu o ke kaua nui; i ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi, Aia hoi, ua hoolimalima ke alii o ka Iseraela i na'lii o ka Heta e ku e mai ia kakou, a me na'lii o Aigupita e hele mai maluna o kakou.

seeing Jehovah hath caused the camp of Aram to hear a noise of chariot and a noise of horse — a noise of great force, and they say one unto another, 'Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Egypt, to come against us.'

7 No ia mea, ku ae la lakou, a holo i ka wanaao, a haalele aku la lakou i ko lakou mau halelewa, a me ko lakou lio, a me na hoki o lakou, a i kahi hoomoana pela, a holo aku la lakou, i ola.

And they rise and flee in the twilight, and forsake their tents, and their horses, and their asses — the camp as it [is] — and flee for their life.

8 A hiki aku la na lepero ma ka palena o kahi hoomoana, komo aku la lakou iloko o kekahi halelewa, a ai iho la lakou, a inu hoi, a lawe aku lakou i ke kala a me ke gula, a me na aahu mai laila aku, hele aku, a huna; a hoi mai a komo aku iloko o kekahi halelewa e ae, a lawe aku no hoi mai laila aku, a hele aku, a huna.

And these lepers come in unto the extremity of the camp, and come in unto one tent, and eat, and drink, and lift up thence silver, and gold, and garments, and go and hide; and they turn back and go in unto another tent, and lift up thence, and go and hide.

9 I ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi. Aole pono ka kakou hana ana; o keia la, he la pomaikai, a ke noho malie nei kakou; a i noho a hiki i ka malamalama o ke ao, e loaa uanei ia kakou ka hewa: ano hoi e hele aku kakou, a o hai aku i ko ka hale o ke alii.

And they say one unto another, 'We are not doing right this day; a day of tidings it [is], and we are keeping silent; and — we have waited till the light of the morning, then hath punishment found us; and now, come and we go in and declare to the house of the king.'

10 A hele lakou, a kahea aku i ke kiai-puka o ke kulanakauhale; a hai aku ia lakou, i aku la, Hele aku makou i kahi hoomoana o ko Suria, aia hoi, aohe kanaka malaila, aohe leo o ke kanaka, o na lio wale no i nakiiia, a me na hoki i nakiiia, a me na halelewa e waiho ana pela.

And they come in, and call unto the gatekeeper of the city, and declare for themselves, saying, 'We have come in unto the camp of Aram, and lo, there is not there a man, or sound of man, but the bound horse, and the bound ass, and tents as they [are].'

11 Kahea aku la ia i na kiai-puka, a hai aku la lakou i ko ka hale o ke alii maloko.

and he calleth the gatekeepers, and they declare to the house of the king within.

12 Ala mai ke alii i ka po, i aku la i kana poe kauwa, Ano e hoike aku au ia oukou i ka mea a ko Suria i hana mai ai ia kakou. Ua ike lakou i ko kakou pololi ana; nolaila, ua hele aku lakou mai ko lakou wahi hoomoana aku e pee ma ke kula, i ka i ana'e, Aia puka lakou mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale, alaila lawe pio kakou ia lakou e ola ana, a komo iloko o ke kulanakauhale.

And the king riseth by night, and saith unto his servants, 'Let me declare, I pray you, to you that which the Aramaeans have done to us; they have known that we are famished, and they are gone out from the camp to be hidden in the field, saying, When they come out from the city, then we catch them alive, and unto the city we enter.'

13 Olelo mai kekahi o na kauwa ana, i mai la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e lawe lakou i elima o na lio e koe ana, na mea i koe iloko olaila, (aia, ua like lakou me ka Iseraela a pau e koe ana; aia hoi, ua like lakou mo ka poe nui o ka Iseraela i make, ) a hoouna aku kakou, a ike.

And one of his servants answereth and saith, 'Then let them take, I pray thee, five of the horses that are left, that have been left in it — lo, they [are] as all the multitude of Israel who have been left in it; lo, they are as all the multitude of Israel who have been consumed — and we send and see.'

14 A lawe lakou i elua kaulualio, a hoouna aku la ke alii mahope o ka poe kaua o ko Suria, i aku la, E hele aku a ike.

And they take two chariot-horses, and the king sendeth after the camp of Aram, saying, 'Go, and see.'

15 A hele aku lakou mahope o lakou la, a Ioredane; aia hoi, ua paapu ke alanui a pau i na aahu, a me na mea kaua a ko Suria i hoolei ai i ko lakou holo kiki ana. A hoi mai na elele, a hai mai i ke alii.

And they go after them unto the Jordan, and lo, all the way is full of garments and vessels that the Aramaeans have cast away in their haste, and the messengers turn back and declare to the king.

16 A hele aku na kanaka, a hao lakou i ko kahi hoomoana o ko Suria. No ia mea, ua lilo ka bakeke palaoa no ka sekela hookahi, a elua bakeke bale no ka sekela hookahi, e like me ka olelo a Iehova.

And the people go out and spoil the camp of Aram, and there is a measure of fine flour at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel, according to the word of Jehovah.

17 A hoonoho aku la ke alii i ka lunakiai, i ka mea ana i hilinai ai ma kona lima, e malama i ka ipuka; a hehi iho la na kanaka maluna ona, a make iho la ia, e like me ka olelo a ke kanaka o ke Akua, ana i olelo ai i ka hele ana o ke alii io na la.

And the king hath appointed the captain, by whose hand he is supported, over the gate, and the people tread him down in the gate, and he dieth, as the man of God spake, which he spake in the coming down of the king unto him,

18 E like no me ka olelo a ke kanaka o ke Akua i ke alii, i ka i ana'e, Elua bakeke bale no ka sekela hookahi, a hookahi bakeke palaoa no ka sekela hookahi, i keia manawa i ka la apopo ma ka ipuka o Samaria.

yea, it cometh to pass, according to the speaking of the man of God unto the king, saying, 'Two measures of barley at a shekel, and a measure of fine flour at a shekel are, at this time to-morrow, in the gate of Samaria;'

19 A olelo mai ua lunakiai la i ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la, Aia hoi, ina e hana mai o Iehova i na puka ma ka lani, e hiki mai anei keia mea? I aku la ia, Aia hoi, e ike auanei kou mau maka, aka, aole oe e ai ia mea.

and the captain answereth the man of God, and saith, 'And lo, Jehovah is making windows in the heavens — it is according to this word?' and he saith, 'Lo, thou art seeing with thine eyes, and thereof thou dost not eat;'

20 A pela i hanaia mai ai ia ia: no ka mea, hehi iho la na kanaka maluna ona ma ka ipuka, a make iho la ia.

and it cometh to him so, and the people tread him down in the gate, and he dieth.
