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.”
Now Elisha had spoken to the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, "Arise, and go, you and your household, and stay for a while wherever you can; for Jehovah has called for a famine. It shall also come on the land 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.
The woman arose, and did according to the word of the man of God. She went with her household, and lived 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.
It happened at the seven years' end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines. Then she went forth to cry to 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.”
Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, "Please tell me all the great things that Elisha has 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.”
It happened, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life him who was dead, that look, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. Gehazi 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.
When the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, "Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits 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.”
Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Aram was sick. It was told him, saying, "The man of God has come here."
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?’”
The king said to Hazael, "Take a present in your hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of Jehovah by him, saying, 'Will 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 Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels' burden, and came and stood before him, and said, "Your son Benhadad king of Aram has sent me to you, saying, 'Will 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.”
Elisha said to him, "Go, say to him, 'You shall surely recover;' however Jehovah has 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.
He settled his gaze steadfastly on him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept.
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.”
Hazael said, "Why do you weep, my lord?" He answered, "Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel. You will set their strongholds on fire, and you will kill their young men with the sword, and will dash in pieces their little ones, and rip up their women with child."
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.”
Hazael said, "But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he should do this great thing?" Elisha answered, "Jehovah has shown me that you will be king over Aram."
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.”
Then he departed from Elisha, and came to his master, who said to him, "What did Elisha say to you?" He answered, "He told me that you would 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.
It happened on the next day, that he took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died. Then Hazael reigned in his place.
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.
In the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat then being king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.
17 Ọ dị iri afọ atọ na abụọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị afọ asatọ na Jerusalem.
He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign. He reigned eight years 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.
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife. He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
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.
However Jehovah would not destroy Judah, for David his servant's sake, as he promised him to give to him a lamp for his children always.
20 Nʼoge Jehoram bụ eze, ka Edọm si nʼokpuru Juda nupu isi, họpụtara onwe ha eze.
In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made 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.
Then Joram passed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, and the captains of the chariots; and the people fled to their tents.
22 Ya mere, Edọm ka na-enupu isi megide Juda, ruo taa. Obodo Libna nupukwara isi nʼotu oge ahụ.
So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.
23 Akụkọ ihe niile Jehoram mere, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe ndị eze Juda mere nʼụbọchị ndụ ha?
The rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, aren't they 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.
Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
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 Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.
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
Twenty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri 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.
He walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did the house of Ahab; for he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab.
28 Ahazaya sooro Joram nwa Ehab, gaa ibuso Hazael eze Aram agha na Ramọt Gilead. Ndị Aram merụrụ Joram ahụ.
He went with Joram the son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead: and the Arameans wounded 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.
King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Arameans had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
