2 Ar-ari 6
1 Kinuna dagiti annak dagiti profeta kenni Eliseo, “Ti lugar a pagnanaedantayo ket nailet unay para kadatayo amin.
And the sons of the prophets said to Eliseus: Behold the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.
2 Pangngaasim ta palubosannakami a mapan idiay Karayan Jordan, ket palubosam ti tunggal lalaki a mangpukan iti kayo, ket mangbangontayo ti lugar sadiay a mabalin a pagnaedantayo.” Simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Mabalinyon ti mapan.”
Let us go as far as the Jordan and take out of the wood every man a piece of timber, that we may build us there a place to dwell in. And he said: Go.
3 Kinuna ti maysa kadakuada, “Pangngaasim ta kumuyogka kadagiti adipenmo.” Simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Mapanak.”
And one of them said: But come thou also with thy servants. He answered: I will come.
4 Isu a kimmuyog ni Eliseo kadakuada, idi nakadanondan idiay Karayan Jordan, rinugianda ti nagpukan kadagiti kayo.
So he went with them. And when they were come to the Jordan they cut down wood.
5 Ngem kabayatan nga agpukpukan ti maysa, natinnag ti ulo ti wasay iti danum; nagpukkaw isuna ket kinunana, “Ayna, apok, daytoy ket bulod!”
And it happened, as one was felling some timber, that the head of the axe fell into the water: and he cried out, and said: Alas, alas, alas, my lord, for this same was borrowed.
6 Isu a kinuna ti tao ti Dios, “Sadino ti nakatnaganna?” Intudo ti lalaki kenni Eliseo ti disso a nakatnaganna. Nangputed ngarud ni Eliseo iti ruting, impuruakna daytoy iti danum, ket pinagtapawna ti landok.
And the man of God said: Where did it fall? and he shewed him the place. Then he cut off a piece of wood, and cast it in thither: and the iron swam.
7 Kinuna ni Eliseo, “Pidutem.” Isu a ginaw-at ti lalaki daytoy.
And he said: Take it up. And he put out his hand and took it.
8 Ita, ti ari ti Aram ket mangirugrugi idi iti gubat maibusor iti Israel. Nakiuman isuna kadagiti adipenna, a kunana, “Agkampoakto iti kastoy ken kastoy a lugar.”
And the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying: In such and such a place let us lay ambushes.
9 Isu a nangibaon ti tao ti Dios iti ari ti Israel, a kunana, “Agannadkayo a saan a magna iti dayta a lugar, ta sumalsalog sadiay dagiti Arameo.”
And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying: Beware that thou pass not to such a place: for the Syrians are there in ambush.
10 Kalpasanna, nangibaon ti ari ti Israel kadagiti lalaki iti lugar nga impakdaar ti tao ti Dios kenkuana. Namin-anon a daras nga insalakan isuna dayta a pakdaar sadiay.
And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God had told him, and prevented him, and looked well to himself there not once nor twice.
11 Nariribukan unay ti panunot ti ari ti Aram maipapan iti daytoy a pakdaar, ket inayabanna dagiti adipenna ket kinunana kadakuada, “Saanyo kadi nga ibaga kaniak no siasino kadatayo ti umay-ayon iti ari ti Israel?
And the heart of the king of Syria was troubled for this thing. And calling together his servants, he said: Why do you not tell me who it is that betrays me to the king of Israel?
12 Kinuna ngarud ti maysa kadagiti adipenna, “Saan, apok nga ari, ta ni Eliseo a profeta iti Israel ti mangibagbaga iti ari ti Israel kadagiti sasao nga ibagbagam iti siledmo!”
And one of his servants said: No one, my lord O king: but Eliseus the prophet, that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel all the words, that thou speakest in thy privy chamber.
13 Simmungbat ti ari, “Inkayo kitaen no sadino ti ayan ni Eliseo tapno makaibaonak kadagiti lallaki a mangtiliw kenkuana.” Naibaga kenkuana, “Kitaem, adda isuna idiay Dotan.”
And he said to them: Go, and see where he is: that I may send, and take him. And they told him, saying: Behold he is in Dothan.
14 Isu a nangipatulod ti ari idiay Dotan kadagiti kabalio, karwahe ken nangibaon iti dakkel a bunggoy dagiti armada. Dimtengda sadiay iti rabii ket pinalikmutanda ti siudad.
Therefore he sent thither horses and chariots, and the strength of an army: and they came by night, and beset the city.
15 Idi nakariing a nasapa ket rimmuar ti adipen ti tao ti Dios, adda met sadiay iti dakkel nga armada agraman dagiti kabalio ken karwahe a nakapalikmot iti siudad. Ket kinuna ti adipen kenni Eliseo, “O, apok! Ania ti aramidentayo?”
And the servant of the man of God rising early, went out, and saw an army round about the city, and horses and chariots: and he told him, saying: Alas, alas, alas, my lord, what shall we do?
16 Simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Saanka nga agbuteng, ta ad-adu dagiti kaduatayo ngem dagidiay a kakaduada.”
But he answered: Fear not: for there are more with us than with them.
17 Nagkararag ni Eliseo ket kinunana, Yahweh, agpakpakaasiak a lukatam dagiti matana tapno makitana.” Kalpasanna, linuktan ni Yahweh dagiti mata ti adipen, ket nakitana. Adtoy, napno ti bantay kadagiti kabalio ken karwahe nga umap-apuy iti likmot ni Eliseo!
And Eliseus prayed, and said: Lord, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the servant, and he saw: and behold the mountain was full of horses, and chariots of fire round about Eliseus.
18 Idi simmalog dagiti Arameo a napan kenkuana, nagkararag ni Eliseo kenni Yahweh a kinunana, “Dawatek kenka a pagbulsekem dagitoy a tattao.” Isu a pinagbulsek ida ni Yahweh, kas dinawat ni Eliseo.
And the enemies came down to him, but Eliseus prayed to the Lord, saying: Strike, I beseech thee, this people with blindness. And the Lord struck them with blindness, according to the word of Eliseus.
19 Kalpasanna, imbaga ni Eliseo kadagiti Arameo, “Saan a daytoy ti dalan, wenno ti siudad. Surutendak, ket ipankayo iti tao a birbirukenyo.” Ket inturongna ida idiay Samaria.
And Eliseus said to them: This is not the way, neither is this the city: follow me, and I will shew you the man whom you seek. So he led them into Samaria.
20 Napasamak nga idi nakadanonda idiay Samaria, imbaga ni Eliseo, “Yahweh, luktam dagiti mata dagitoy a tattao tapno makakitada.” Linukatan ni Yahweh dagiti matada ket nakitada, ket adtoy, addada iti tengnga ti siudad ti Samaria.
And when they were come into Samaria, Eliseus said: Lord, open the eyes of these men, that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw themselves to be in the midst of Samaria.
21 Kinuna ti ari ti Israel kenni Eliseo, idi nakitana ida, “Amak, rumbeng kadi a papatayek ida? Rumbeng kadi a patayek ida?
And the king of Israel said to Eliseus, when he saw them: My father, shall I kill them?
22 Simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Saan a rumbeng a papatayem ida. Papatayem kadi dagiti natiliwmo a balud babaen kadagiti kampilan ken panam. Mangikabilka iti tinapay ken danum iti sangoananda, tapno mangan ken uminumda, ket mapanda iti apoda.”
And he said: Thou shalt not kill them: for thou didst not take them with thy sword, or thy bow, that thou mayst kill them: but set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.
23 Isu a nangisagana ti ari iti adu a taraon para kadakuada, ket idi nakapangan ken nakainomdan, pinapanawna ida, ket nagsublida iti apoda. Nabayag a panawen a saanen a nagsubli dagidiay a bunggoy dagiti soldado ti Aram iti daga ti Israel.
And a great provision of meats was set before them, and they ate and drank, and he let them go, and they went away to their master, and the robbers of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.
24 Iti saan a nabayag kalpasan daytoy, inummong ni Ben Hadad nga ari ti Aram iti amin nga armada ti Aram ket rinautda ti Samaria ket linakubda daytoy.
And it came to pass after these things, that Benadad king of Syria gathered together all his army, and went up, and besieged Samaria.
25 Isu nga adda idi ti nakaro a panagbisin idiay Samaria. Adtoy, linakubda daytoy agingga a nailako ti ulo ti asno iti walo pulo a pidaso a pirak, ken ti kakapat a kab ti lugit ti kalapati iti lima a pidaso a pirak.
And there was a great famine in Samaria: and so long did the siege continue, till the head of an ass was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cabe of pigeon’s dung, for five pieces of silver.
26 Kabayatan a magmagna ti ari ti Israel iti rabaw ti pader, nagpukkaw kenkuana ti maysa a babai, kinunana, “Tulong, apok nga ari.”
And as the king of Israel was passing by the wall, a certain woman cried out to him, saying: Save me, my lord O king.
27 Kinunana, “No saannaka a tulungan ni Yahweh, kasanoka a matulungan? Adda kadi aniaman nga agtataud iti pagirikan wenno pagpespesan ti arak?”
And he said: If the Lord doth not save thee, how can I save thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress? And the king said to her: What aileth thee? And she answered:
28 Intultuloy ti ari, “Ania ti pakarirriribukam? Simmungbat ti babai, “Kinuna daytoy a babai kaniak, 'Itedmo ti anakmo a lalaki tapno kanenta isuna ita nga aldaw, ket kanenta ti anakko inton bigat.”
This woman said to me: Give thy son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.
29 Inangermi ngarud ti anakko ket kinnanmi isuna, ket imbagak kenkuana iti sumaruno nga aldaw, “Itedmo ti anakmo ta kanenta isuna, ngem inlemmengna ti anakna.”
So we boiled my son, and ate him. And I said to her on the next day: Give thy son that we may eat him. And she hath hid her son.
30 Idi nangngeg ti ari dagiti sao ti babai, rinay-abna dagiti kawesna (ita, magmagna ti ari iti rabaw ti pader), ket kimmita dagiti tattao ket nakitada a nakersang a lupot iti pang-uneg a kawesna.
When the king heard this, he rent his garments, and passed by upon the wall. And all the people saw the haircloth which he wore within next to his flesh.
31 Ket kinunana, “Kastoy koma met ti aramiden ti Dios kaniak, ken ad-adda pay koma, no ti ulo ni Eliseo nga anak ni Safat ket agtalinaed pay kenkuana ita nga aldaw.”
And the king said: May God do so and so to me, and may he add more, if the head of Eliseus the son of Saphat shall stand on him this day.
32 Ngem agtugtugaw idi ni Eliseo iti uneg ti balayna, ket kaduana nga agtugtugaw dagiti panglakayen. Nangibaon ti ari iti tao manipud iti sangoananna, ngem idi napan ti mensahero kenni Eliseo, kinunana kadagiti panglakayen, “Kitaenyo no kasano a nangibaon daytoy nga anak ti mammapatay iti umay mangputed iti ulok? Kastoy, inton umay ti mensahero, irekepyo ti ridaw, ket saanyo nga ilukatan isuna. Saan kadi a ti uni dagiti saka ti amona iti sumarsaruno kenkuana?”
But Eliseus sat in his house, and the ancients sat with him. So he sent a man before: and before that messenger came, he said to the ancients: Do you know that this son of a murderer hath sent to cut off my head? Look then, when the messenger shall come, shut the door, and suffer him not to come in: for behold the sound of his master’s feet is behind him.
33 Kabayatan a makisarsarita pay laeng ni Eliseo kadakuada, adtoy, ti mensahero ket napan kenkuana. Kinuna ti ari, “Adtoy, daytoy a rigat ket naggapu kenni Yahweh. Apay koma nga agurayak pay laeng kenni Yahweh?”
While he was yet speaking to them, the messenger appeared who was coming to him. And he said: Behold, so great an evil is from the Lord: what shall I look for more from the Lord?
