2 Ndị Eze 8
1 Ịlaisha gwara nwanyị ahụ o mere ka nwa ya si nʼọnwụ bilie okwu sị ya, “Bilie, gị na ezinaụlọ gị, gaa nʼobodo ọzọ ebe unu ga-anọ dịka ọbịa nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ekwuola na oke ụnwụ ga-adakwasị ala Izrel afọ asaa.”
And Elisha' spoke unto the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise, and go, thou and thy household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn; for the Lord hath called for a famine, and it is also coming in the land for seven years.
2 Nwanyị ahụ mere dịka onye nke Chineke gwara ya, o biliri, ya na ezinaụlọ ya gaa biri nʼala ndị Filistia afọ asaa.
And the woman arose, and did after the word of the man of God; and she went, she with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.
3 Mgbe ụnwụ ahụ gwụsịrị nʼafọ nke asaa, o si nʼala ndị Filistia lọta nʼIzrel. Mgbe ọ lọtara, o jekwuuru eze ka o nyere ya aka inwetaghachi ụlọ ya na ala ya.
And it came to pass at the end of seven years, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines; and she went forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.
4 Mgbe nwanyị ahụ bịakwutere eze, eze nọ na-agwa Gehazi bụ onye na-ejere onye nke Chineke ozi okwu sị ya, “Biko, kọọrọ m akụkọ ihe ukwu niile Ịlaisha mere.”
And the king was just speaking with Gechazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Relate to me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha' hath done.
5 Mgbe Gehazi na-akọrọ eze otu Ịlaisha si mee ka nwantakịrị nwụrụ anwụ dị ndụ ọzọ, nwanyị ahụ, onye bụ nne nwantakịrị ahụ, batara nʼime ụlọeze. Mgbe ahụ, Gehazi kwuru sị, “Onyenwe m eze, onye a bụ nwanyị ahụ, leekwa nwa ya nwoke, onye Ịlaisha mere ka ọ dị ndụ ọzọ.”
And it came to pass, as he was just relating to the king how he had restored the dead to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gechazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha' restored to life.
6 Eze jụrụ nwanyị ahụ ajụjụ sị ya, “Ọ bụ eziokwu?” Nwanyị ahụ kọọrọ eze akụkọ ihe niile mere. Mgbe ahụ, eze dunyere ya otu onyeisi nʼime ndị ozi ya ka o nyere ya aka inwetaghachi ihe ya niile, ya na ụgwọ ruru ya nʼihi mkpụrụ ubi ya niile ha ghọrọ mgbe ahụ o bi nʼala ndị Filistia.
And the king asked of the woman, who related it to him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that belongeth to her, and all the products of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.
7 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị Ịlaisha gara Damaskọs, isi obodo ndị Siria. Nʼoge a, Ben-Hadad eze Aram, na-arịa ọrịa. “A gara gwa eze na onye nke Chineke abịala nʼebe ahụ.”
And Elisha' came to Damascus; and Ben-hadad, the king of Syria, was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come even hither.
8 Mgbe eze nụrụ ya, ọ kpọrọ Hazael sị ya, “Were onyinye ịnata ihuọma nʼaka gị wegara onye nke Chineke, site nʼaka ya jụta Onyenwe anyị ase. Jụọ ya, ‘M ga-esi nʼọrịa a bilie?’”
And the king said unto Chazael, Take a present in thy hand, and go to meet the man of God, and inquire of the Lord from him, saying, Shall I recover from this sickness?
9 Hazael weere iri ịnyịnya kamel anọ buru ezi ihe niile si nʼala Damaskọs, wetara Ịlaisha onyinye ndị a sị ya, “Nwa gị Ben-Hadad, eze Aram, zitere ka m jụọ gị sị, ‘M ga-esi nʼọrịa a bilie?’”
So Chazael went to meet him, and took a present in his hand, and all manner of good things of Damascus, a burden for forty camels, and he came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Ben-hadad the king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover from this sickness?
10 Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Laa, gaa gwa ya sị ya, ‘Ị ga-esi nʼọrịa bilie.’ Ma Onyenwe anyị egosila m na, nʼezie, ọ ga-anwụ.”
And Elisha' said unto him, Go, say unto him, Thou mayest certainly recover; nevertheless the Lord hath shown me that he shall surely die.
11 Mgbe Ịlaisha nọ na-ekwu okwu a, o legidere Hazael anya nʼihu tutu ruo mgbe ihere mere ya. Mgbe ahụ, onye nke Chineke kwara akwa.
And he restrained his countenance, and held back as long as he could: and then wept the man of God.
12 Mgbe ahụ, Hazael jụrụ Ịlaisha ajụjụ sị, “Ọ bụ gịnị mere onyenwe m ji akwa akwa?” Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Nʼihi na amaara m ihe ọjọọ ị ga-eme ụmụ Izrel nʼoge dị nʼihu. Ị ga-akpọ obodo niile ha e wusiri ike ọkụ, jiri mma agha gbuo ụmụ okorobịa ha. Ị ga-atụpịa ụmụntakịrị na-aṅụ ara, bọwakwaa afọ ndị inyom dị ime.”
And Chazael said, Why doth my Lord weep? And he said, Because I know what evil thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong-holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and their children wilt thou dash, and their pregnant women wilt thou rip up.
13 Hazael sịrị, “Olee otu ọrụ gị, bụ nkịta efu, ga-esi nwee ike imezu ihe ukwuu a?” Ịlaisha zara, “Onyenwe anyị egosila m na ị ga-abụ eze Aram.”
And Chazael said, But what is thy servant, the dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha' said, The Lord hath caused me to see thee as king over Syria.
14 Mgbe Hazael, si nʼebe Ịlaisha nọ laa, ọ bịakwutere nna ya ukwu. Mgbe Ben-Hadad jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị ka Ịlaisha gwara gị?” Hazael zara sị, “Ọ gwara m na ị ga-esi nʼọrịa bilie.”
So he went away from Elisha', and came to his master; who said to him, What hath Elisha' said to thee? And he said, he said to me that thou couldst surely recover.
15 Ma nʼechi ya, Hazael chịịrị akwa na-egbo oyi, banye ya na mmiri jiri ya baa nʼebe eze dina, gbasaa ya nʼihu eze, tutu ruo mgbe ọ nwụrụ. Emesịa, Hazael ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a cover lid, and dipped it in water, and spread it over his face, and he died: and Chazael became king in his stead.
16 Nʼafọ nke ise nke ọchịchị Joram nwa Ehab eze Izrel, mgbe Jehoshafat bụ eze Juda, ka Jehoram nwa Jehoshafat malitere ọchịchị ya dịka eze Juda.
And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Achab the king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being yet king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah became king.
17 Ọ dị iri afọ atọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị afọ asatọ na Jerusalem.
Thirty and two years old was he when he became king, and eight years did he reign in Jerusalem.
18 O soro ụzọ ndị eze Izrel dịka ụlọ Ehab mere, nʼihi na ọ lụrụ ada Ehab. O mere ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị.
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had done; for a daughter of Achab had he for wife: and he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.
19 Ma nʼagbanyeghị nke a, nʼihi ohu ya bụ Devid Onyenwe anyị achọghị ibibi Juda. Nʼihi na o kwere nkwa ime ka oriọna dịịrị Devid na ụmụ ụmụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Yet would the Lord not destroy Judah for the sake of David his servant, as he said unto him, to give him a government and to his children at all times.
20 Nʼoge Jehoram bụ eze, ka Edọm si nʼokpuru Juda nupu isi, họpụtara onwe ha eze.
In his days Edom revolted from under the power of Judah, and they appointed a king over themselves.
21 Ya mere, Jehoram duuru ụgbọ agha ya niile gaa nʼobodo Zaịa. O biliri nʼabalị tigbuo ndị Edọm ahụ gbara ya na ndị ọchịagha ụgbọ agha ya gburugburu; ma ndị agha ya gbaghachiri azụ, laa nʼụlọ ha.
And Joram went over to Za'ir, and all the chariots were with him; and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites who compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled unto their tents.
22 Ya mere, Edọm ka na-enupu isi megide Juda, ruo taa. Obodo Libna nupukwara isi nʼotu oge ahụ.
Yet Edom revolted from under the power of Judah even until this day; then did Libnah revolt at the same time.
23 Akụkọ ihe niile Jehoram mere, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Juda mere nʼụbọchị ndụ ha?
And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
24 Joram sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼebe e liri nna ya ha nʼobodo Devid. Ahazaya nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Achazyahu his son became king in his stead.
25 Nʼafọ nke iri na abụọ nke ọchịchị Joram nwa Ehab, bụ eze Izrel, ka Ahazaya nwa Jehoram, bụ eze Juda malitere ịchị.
In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Achab the king of Israel became Achazyahu, the son of Jehoram the king of Judah, king.
26 Ahazaya gbara iri afọ abụọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị otu afọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Atalaya, nwa nwa Omri, eze Izrel
Two and twenty years old was Achazyahu when he became king; and one year did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was 'Athalyahu, the [grand-]daughter of 'Omri the king of Israel.
27 O soro ụzọ niile nke ndị ezinaụlọ Ehab, mee ihe dị njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka ezinaụlọ Ehab mere, nʼihi na ọ lụrụ nwanyị si nʼezinaụlọ Ehab.
And he walked in the way of the house of Achab, and did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, like the house of Achab; for he was the son-in-law of the house of Achab.
28 Ahazaya sooro Joram nwa Ehab, gaa ibuso Hazael eze Aram agha na Ramọt Gilead. Ndị Aram merụrụ Joram ahụ.
And he went with Joram the son of Achab to the war against Chazael the king of Syria at Ramoth-gil'ad: and the Syrians smote Joram.
29 Ya mere, eze Joram lọghachitere na Jezril, ka a gwọọ ya mmerụ ahụ ndị Aram merụrụ ya na Ramọt, nʼagha nke ya na Hazael eze Aram lụrụ. Mgbe ahụ, Ahazaya nwa Jehoram eze Juda, gara Jezril ileta Joram nwa Ehab, nʼihi na e merụrụ ya ahụ.
And king Joram returned to be healed in Yizre'el of the wounds which the Syrians had inflicted on him at Ramah, when he was fighting against Chazael the king of Syria. And Achazyahu the son of Jehoram the king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Achab in Yizre'el, because he was sick.
