2 Ndị Eze 7
1 Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị. Nʼihi na otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, Nʼoge dịka mgbe a echi, a ga-ere otu akpa nta ụtụ ọka otu shekel, rekwaa akpa nta ọka balị abụọ otu shekel nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo Sameria.”
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 Ọchịagha ahụ, nke eze na-adabere nʼaka ya, sịrị onye nke Chineke, “Lee, a sịkwarị na Onyenwe anyị emeghee oghere idee nke eluigwe, nke a ọ pụrụ ime?” Ma Ịlaisha zara ya, “Ị ga-eji anya gị abụọ hụ ya, ma ị gaghị eri site nʼime ya.”
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 Nʼoge a, e nwere ndị ekpenta anọ nọ nʼezi mgbidi gbara Sameria gburugburu, nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ e si abata obodo ahụ. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Gịnị ka anyị nọ nʼebe a na-eme? Ọ bụ ka anyị nọrọ nʼebe a tutu anyị anwụọ?
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 Ọ bụrụ na anyị asị, ‘Anyị ga-abanye nʼime obodo,’ ụnwụ dị nʼebe ahụ, anyị ga-anwụkwa. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na anyị anọgide nʼebe a anyị ga-anwụ. Ya mere ka anyị gafeenụ banye nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ndị agha Aram, were onwe anyị nyefee ha nʼaka. Ọ bụrụ na ha edebe anyị ndụ, anyị ga-adị ndụ, ọ bụrụ na ha egbuo anyị, anyị ga-anwụkwa.”
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 Nʼoge uhuruchi, ha biliri gaa nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ndị agha Aram. Mgbe ha bịarutere nʼọnụ ụlọ ikwu ahụ, o nwekwaghị onye nọ nʼebe ahụ,
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 nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị mere ka ndị Aram nụ ụzụ ụgbọ agha na nke ịnyịnya, na nke usuu ndị agha. Nke a mere ka onye ọbụla gwa ibe ya sị, “Lee, eze ndị Izrel egoola ndị agha ndị Het, na ndị eze Ijipt ibuso anyị agha.”
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 Ha biliri gbapụ ọsọ nʼabalị ahụ, hapụ ụlọ ikwu ha niile, na ịnyịnya ha niile, na ịnyịnya ibu ha niile, na ihe niile otu o si dịrị, ma gbapụ ọsọ ndụ.
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 Mgbe ndị ekpenta ahụ rutere ogige ndị agha ndị Siria, ha banyere nʼime otu ụlọ rie ihe, ṅụkwaa ihe ọṅụṅụ dị nʼime ya. Ha chịịrị ọlaọcha na ọlaedo na uwe ọma niile dị nʼime ya gaa zoo ha. Ọzọkwa, ha lọghachiri banye nʼụlọ ọzọ kwakọrọ ụfọdụ ihe dị nʼime ya gaa zoo.
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 Ma mgbe ahụ ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Ihe anyị na-eme ezighị ezi. Taa bụ ụbọchị oziọma, ma lee ka anyị na-agba nkịtị. Ọ bụrụ na anyị echere ruo ìhè ụtụtụ, a ga-achọpụta ajọọ omume anyị. Ugbu a bịanụ, ka anyị gaa gwa ndị nọ nʼụlọeze, ihe anyị hụrụ.”
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 Ya mere, ha gara kpọkuo ndị nche ọnụ ụzọ obodo ahụ, gwa ha sị, “Anyị banyere nʼogige ndị agha Aram, o nweghị mmadụ ọbụla nọ nʼebe ahụ, ọ dịghị olu mmadụ anyị nụrụ nʼebe ahụ, naanị ịnyịnya na ịnyịnya ibu elibere nʼosisi, na ụlọ ikwu ha a hapụrụ dịka ha dị.”
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 Ndị na-eche nche tiri mkpu kọọrọ ndị nọ nʼụlọeze ihe mere.
and he calleth the gatekeepers, and they declare to the house of the king within.
12 Eze biliri nʼabalị ahụ gwa ndịisi ọrụ ya sị, “Ka m gwa unu ihe ndị Aram mere anyị. Ha maara na anyị nọ nʼoke agụụ, nʼihi ya, ha akpacharala anya hapụ ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ha gaa zoo onwe ha nʼime ọhịa. Echiche ha bụ, ‘Ndị a ga-apụtarịrị, mgbe ahụ, anyị ga-ejide ha na ndụ, banyekwa nʼime obodo ha.’”
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 Ma otu onye nʼime ndịisi agha ya zara sị ya, “Ka ụfọdụ mmadụ duru ịnyịnya ise ndị ahụ fọdụrụ nʼobodo. Ọ bụrụ na ndị a alọtaghị ọnọdụ ha ga-adị ka nke ndị Izrel niile fọdụrụ nʼebe, e, ha ga-adị ka ndị Izrel niile a gụrụ dịka ndị nwụrụ anwụ. Ya mere, ka anyị zipụ ha ka ha gaa chọpụta ihe mere.”
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 Ya mere, ha họpụtara ụgbọ agha abụọ na ịnyịnya ndị na-adọkpụ ha. Eze zipụrụ ha ịchụso ndị agha Aram, O nyere ndị na-agba ha iwu sị, “Gaanụ chọpụta ihe mere.”
And they take two chariot-horses, and the king sendeth after the camp of Aram, saying, 'Go, and see.'
15 Ha sogidere ha ruo nʼosimiri Jọdan. Nʼakụkụ ụzọ niile jupụtara nʼuwe na ngwa agha ndị agha Aram tufuru mgbe ha na-eme ngwangwa. Ndị ahụ e zipụrụ lọghachiri bịa kọọrọ eze ihe ha hụrụ.
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 Ndị Izrel niile pụrụ gaa kwakọrọ ihe dị nʼọmụma ụlọ ikwu ndị Aram. Nke bụ na e rere otu akpa nta ụtụ ọka a kwọrọ nke ọma otu shekel, rekwaa akpa ọka balị abụọ otu shekel dịka Onyenwe anyị si kwuo.
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 Eze họpụtara ọchịagha ahụ, nke ọ na-adabere nʼaka ya, nye ya ọrụ ilekọta ọnụ ụzọ obodo ahụ. Ma ndị si nʼobodo na-enupụta nuturu ya, zọọ ya ụkwụ, zọgbuo ya mgbe ha na-agbapụta. Ọ nwụrụ dịka Ịlaisha onye nke Chineke kwuru mgbe eze bịakwutere ya ụnyaahụ, ijide ya.
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 Ihe niile mezuru dịka onye nke Chineke gwara eze okwu sị ya, “A ga-ere akpa nta ọka balị abụọ otu shekel na otu akpa nta ụtụ ọka otu shekel, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama Sameria.”
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 Nʼoge ahụ, ọchịagha ahụ na-ejere eze ozi zara sị ya, “Ihe dị otu a agaghị eme, ọ bụladị na Onyenwe anyị emeghee eluigwe mee ka nri zoo, nke a ọ ga-eme?” Ma onye nke Chineke zara ya, “Ị ga-eji anya gị hụ ya, ma ị gaghị eso rie ya.”
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 Ọ bụkwa otu a ka o si mee, nʼihi na ndị mmadụ zọgburu ya nʼụkwụ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama, ebe ọ nọ nwụọ.
and it cometh to him so, and the people tread him down in the gate, and he dieth.
