1 Hanki mago zupa Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa vahepinti mago kasnampa ne' fri'nea ne'mofo kento a'mo Elisana amanage huno eme asmi'ne, Muse hugantoanki nenave'ma ko'ma fri'neana kagra ko antahi'nane. Hagi ofri'ma mani'neno'a kamage nenteno, Ra Anumzamofona monora hunte'ne. Hianagi mago ne'mofontegati zagoa nofi hu'neankino, ana ne'mo'a eno eme tare ne'mofavre ni'ararena zanavreno vanigeke kazokazo eri'za omerintegaha'e.

Umfazi wenye indoda phakathi kwexuku labaphrofethi wakhalaza ku-Elisha wathi, “Indoda yami ebiyinceku yakho isifile, njalo uyakwazi ukuthi ibe imkhonza uThixo. Umkami ubelesikwelede sendoda ethile esifuna ukuthumba amadodana ami amabili ukuze abe yizigqili zayo.”

2 Anage higeno ana ara Elisa'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Inankna hu'na nagra kaza hugahue? Nonka'afina na'a ante'nane, higeno ana a'mo'a ke nona'a huno, Muse hugantoanki mago'a zana onte'noe. Hianagi osi'a olivi masave antogeno taferopina me'ne.

U-Elisha wamphendula wathi, “Ngingakunceda kanjani na? Akungitshele, kulani endlini yakho?” Umfelokazi wathi, “Incekukazi yakho ayilalutho ngaphandle kwengcosana yamafutha.”

3 Higeno Elisa'a ana ara asmino, Vunka tvaonka'arema nemaniza vahera zamantahigenka kavoramina osi'a e'orinka rama'a erio.

U-Elisha wasesithi, “Hamba uyekweboleka imbiza ezinengi kubomakhelwane bakho bonke. Ungaceli ezilutshwane nje.

4 Hanki anama hute'nunka, kagrane tare mofavre ka'anena nompi ufreta kafana erigita nemanita, ana maka kavofi masavena taginte vagareho. Anama nehanankenoma mago kavomo'ma aviteterema haniana, rure erintetere huo.

Ubusungena endlini yakho lamadodana akho uvale umnyango. Ubusuthululela amafutha embizeni inye nganye, ithi ingagcwala uyibeke eceleni.”

5 Ana kema Elisa'ma hiana ana a'mo'a antahiteno, vuno vahe kavoramina zamantahigeno eritru huteno, tare ne'ararene noma'afi ufreno kahana erigiteno, tare ne'ararena ke higeke kavoa eri amitere hakeno masavena tagintetere huno evu'ne.

Wasuka kuye kwathi ngemva kwesikhathi wavala umnyango lamadodana akhe. Amadodana amqhubela imbiza yena elokhu ezigcwalisa ngamafutha.

6 Hanki ana a'mo'ma ana maka kavoramimpima masavema tagintegeno avite vagaretegeno, mago mofavre'agu huno, Mago'a kavoma me'nesiana eri namio, huno higeno mofavre'amo'a kenona'a huno, Magore huno kavoa omne'neanki hago vagare. Higeno masavemo'ma ne-eretira anante vagare'ne.

Kuthe imbiza zonke sezigcwele, wathi endodaneni yakhe, “Letha enye futhi.” Kodwa yaphendula yathi, “Akuselambiza eseleyo.” Amafutha kazabe esajuluka.

7 Anante ana a'mo'a Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa ne' Elisana anazama fore'ma hiazana ome asamigeno, Elisa'a ana ara asmino, Vunka ana masaveramina ome zagore atrenka zagoma erisunka, negave'ma nofi'ma hu'neana zagoa apanesenka, mago'a mesia zagoa kagrane mofavre ka'ararene ne'zana mizaseta neneta maniho huno hu'ne.

Wasuka wayatshela umuntu kaNkulunkulu, owathi, “Hamba uyethengisa amafutha lawo ubhadale izikwelede zakho. Wena lamadodana akho lizaphila ngaseleyo.”

8 Hanki mago zupa Elisa'a Sunemi rankumate vigeno, ana kumapina mago feno ara mani'neankino, ana a'mo'a kehigeno noma'afinti ne'zana ome ne'ne. Ana hu'neankino Elisa'ma Sunemi kumate'ma mago'a zupama eterema nehuno'a, ana a'mofo nompintike ne'zana eme ne'ne.

Ngolunye usuku u-Elisha waya eShunemi. Kwakulowesifazane onothileyo, owamcela ukuba ahlale adle ukudla. Kwakusithi nxa ehambele khonale wayethola ukudla khonapho.

9 Hanki mago'a kna evutegeno, ana a'mo'a nevena amanage huno asmi'ne, Ama ne'ma eno'ma tagranema ne'zama eme neterema nehia nera, nagrama antahi'noana Ra Anumzamofo ruotge kasnampa ne' mani'ne.

Owesifazane wathi kumyeni wakhe, “Ngiyakwazi ukuthi lumuntu ohlala esedlula lapha ngumuntu ongcwele kaNkulunkulu.

10 E'ina hu'negu tagra nonti'amofo agofetu Elisa'ma masesia nona mago hunaraginteteta, anampinka mase sipane, ne'zama anteno nesia tra'ene, manisia tra'ene tro hunteteta, lamu tavi'ene anampinka antente'nesukeno, tagri'ma tageku'ma eterema hania zupa, anama hunaragintepinka umrerino umasegahie.

Kasimlungisele indlu ephezulu simfakele khona umbheda, itafula, isihlalo kanye lesibane. Kube yindlu azafikela kiyo nxa elapha kithi.”

11 Hanki mago zupa Elisa'a Sunemi kumate eno, anama hunaragintepinka evumarerino umaseno mani'ne.

Kwelinye ilanga, u-Elisha wafika wayangena endlini yakhe leyo wacambalala khona.

12 Ana huteno Elisa'a kato ne'a Gehasina amanage huno hunte'ne, Ama noma retro'ma hunte'nea ara ome kehugeno eno, higeno Gehasi'a vuno ana ara ome kehigeno e'ne.

Wathuma inceku yakhe uGehazi, wathi, “Ngibizela umShunami.” Ngakho inceku yambiza, wafika wema phansi kwakhe.

13 Anama higeno'a Elisa'a amanage huno Gehasina asmi'ne, Vunka ana ara na'a kagrira mago so'ezana hugantegahu'e hunka ome antahigo. Hagi kagrama hu izo hanankeno'a, amne Elisa'a vuno kini netero, sondia vahete ugota hu'nea nera ome zamageno kavesisia zanku'ma hnanana, ome zamasaminege'za amne trohugahaze hunka asmio. Higeno Gehasi'a ana ara anankea ome asmigeno, ana amo'a kenona huno, Nagra vahe'ni'ane knare hu'na mani'noanki'na mago'zankura atupara osu'noe.

U-Elisha wasesithi, “Umtshele uthi, ‘Usuzihluphe kangaka usilungisela. Kambe kuyini ongakwenzelwa wena? Singakukhulumela yini enkosini loba kumlawuli wamabutho na?’” Owesifazane wathi, “Ngilomuzi phakathi kwabantu bakithi.”

14 Higeno ana ke'ma Gehasi'ma eno Elisama eme asmigeno'a Elisa'a huno, Knare avu'avazama ana a'mo'ma hurante'nerera na'a huntegahu'e? Higeno Gehasi'a amanage hu'ne, Ne' mofavrea onte'negeno neve'a ko ranafa re'ne.

U-Elisha wabuza wathi, “Kuyini esingamenzela khona na?” UGehazi wathi, “Kalandodana njalo umyeni wakhe useluphele.”

15 Anage higeno Elisa'a ana ara ome kehugeno eno higeno, Gehasi'a ome kehigeno eno kahante eme oti'ne.

Ngakho u-Elisha wathi, “Mbize.” Inceku yasimbiza, wafika wema emnyango. U-Elisha wathi,

16 Ana hutegeno Elisa'a ana ara amanage huno asmi'ne, Anaga'a kafufina meni amana knare, ne' mofavreka'a kazampi avaregahane. Higeno ana a'mo'a ke nona huno, kvanimoka Ra Anumzamofo eri'za vahe mani'nanki havigea osuo.

“Ngasolesi isikhathi ngomnyaka ozayo uzaphatha indodana ezandleni zakho.” Owesifazane waphikisa wathi, “Atshi, nkosi yami, ungabokhohlisa incekukazi yakho, wena muntu kaNkulunkulu!”

17 Hianagi ana a'mo'a henka mofavre amu'ene huno, Elisa'ma hu'nea kante anteno anaga'a kafufina, ana kna fatgore ne' mofavre kasente'ne.

Owesifazane wathatha isisu, kwathi ngomnyaka owalandelayo ngesikhathi esifananayo wakhululeka wazuza indodana njengokutshelwa kwakhe ngu-Elisha.

18 Hanki henka ana mofavremo'a ra huteno mago zupa, nefa'a hozafi eri'za vahe'anema witi nevasgazafi vu'ne.

Umntwana wakhula, kwathi ngelinye ilanga walandela uyise, owayelabavuni.

19 Hanki anampi mani'neno nefana asmino, Nase'nimo'a tusi natagrie, natagrie, huno higeno, nefa'a mago eri'za vahe hunteno, avrenka nerera'ma mani'nerega vuo.

Wasesithi kuyise, “Maye ikhanda lami! Maye ikhanda lami!” Uyise wathuma isisebenzi wathi, “Thwala umntwana uye laye kunina.”

20 Higeno eri'za ne'mo'a ana mofavrea avresga huno nerera ome ami'geno, nerera asumpi maseno mani'negeno vuno ferusegeno fri'ne.

Isisebenzi sesimthwalele kunina unina wamanga kwaze kwaba semini enkulu umntwana wasesifa.

21 Ana higeno ana a'mo'a anama fria mofavre'a erino marerino, Anumzamofo eri'za vahe Elisa'ma nemasea sipare ome antemaseteno, kafa erinegino atreno atirami'ne.

Unina wamthatha wayamlalisa embhedeni womuntu kaNkulunkulu, waphuma wasevala umnyango.

22 Anante ana a'mo'a nevena kezatimino anage hu'ne, Muse hugantoanki mago eri'za ne'ene mago donki afura namige'na Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa ne' ame hu'na ome kete'na a'neno.

Owesifazane wathumela kumkakhe ilizwi elithi, “Ngicela ungithumele esinye sezisebenzi kanye lobabhemi ukuze ngiphange ngiyebona umuntu kaNkulunkulu ngiphenduke.”

23 Anage higeno ana a'mofo neve'a huno, Menina kasefa ikana omnege, mani fruhu kna Sabatia omne'neanki, na'a higenka menina vu'za nehane? Hianagi ana a'mo'a huno, E'ina hu'neanagi knare hu'neanki'na amne vugahue.

Umyeni wakhe wathi, “Kungani umlanda lamuhla? Akusikho ekuThwaseni kweNyanga njalo akusilo iSabatha.” Owesifazane wathi, “Kulungile kunjalo.”

24 Anante ana a'mo'a donki afura azerinte fatgo nehuno, eri'za ne'agura huno, avazu hunka ame'ma hunka vuo. Hanki donkimo'ma akoheno vinogura nagrake'za kasamigahue.

Wethesa ubabhemi wasesithi kusisebenzi sakhe, “Khokhela; ungahambi kancane usenzela mina ngaphandle kokuba ngikutshele.”

25 Hanki anage hutegeke, ana a'ene eri'za ne'anena, Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa ne' Elisa ome keku Karmeli agonare vu'na'e. Hanki zanagra afete nevakeno Elisa'a nezanageno kato ne'a Gehasina asamino, antu Sunemiti a' ne-eanki ko.

Ngakho waphuma wahamba waze wayamthola umuntu kaNkulunkulu eNtabeni yaseKhameli. Ebona owesifazane esesebucwadlana, umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi kuGehazi inceku yakhe, “Khangela! Nanguyana umShunami!

26 Hanki kagra kagarenka vunka ana a'ra ome negenka, kagrane, negave'ene, mofavreka'anena knare huta mani'nazo? hunka antahigo. Higeno Gehasi'a anankema ome asmigeno'a, ana a'mo'a kenona'a huno, mago kea omne'neanki knare huta mani'none.

Gijima umhlangabeze umbuze uthi, ‘Konke kulungile kuwe na? Umkakho uyaphila na? Umntanakho uyaphila na?’” Owesifazane wathi, “Konke kulungile.”

27 Hanki ana a'mo'ma Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne'ma agonafima mani'nere uhanatino, Elisana agiafi rena nereno, agiare azeri antroko hu'ne, anama hiaza Gehasi'ma negeno'a, ana ara retufe ogantu atreku hu'neanagi, Elisa'a Gehasina asmino, Agra tusi'a knazampi mani'negahianki atrenenka ko. Hagi agrama knafima mani'neazana Ra Anumzamo'a knafi mani'ne huno onasami'ne.

Kodwa esefikile emuntwini kaNkulunkulu entabeni, wagagadlela inyawo zakhe. UGehazi weza kuye wamfuqela khatshana, kodwa umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi, “Myekele! Uphakathi kosizi olukhulu, kodwa uThixo ukufihlile kimi lokho njalo kangitshelanga ukuthi kungani.”

28 Anante ana a'mo'a anage hu'ne, Kva vahe'ni'a Ra Anumzamofo eri'za vahe'moka, nagra ne'mofavregura kantahi onkenoanki, kagrama hana kante anteno Anumzamo mofavrea nami'ne. Hianagi nagrama hu'noana renavataga osuo hu'na hu'noe.

Owesifazane wathi, “Ngake ngacela indodana kuwe na, nkosi yami? Angizange ngikutshele yini ukuthi ungaze wangikhohlisa na?”

29 Ana ke'ma Elisa'ma nentahino'a, Gehasina anage huno asmi'ne, Zaza kenaka'a kamu nofipi eri pasihunka ahenevazinka kazampina azompani'a enerinka kagarenka Sunemi rankumate vuo. Hanki kantegama vahe'ma nezmagesunka keaga huozaminka, keagama hunegami sagenkanena kenona osunka, vuvava hunka ana a'mofo nompi umarerinka ana mofavremofo avugosafi azompania omento.

U-Elisha wathi kuGehazi, “Khwincela ijazi lakho ebhantini, uphathe intonga yami ngesandla ubusugijima. Loba ngubani ohlangana laye, ungambingeleli, loba angaze akubingelele ungamphenduli. Ufike ubeke intonga yami ebusweni bomfana.”

30 Hianagi ana mofavremofo nerera'a amanage hu'ne, Kasefa huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo avufine kagri kavufine tamage hu'na nehuankina, nagra katre'na ovugahue, higeno Elisa'a otino ana a'ene Sunemi ete vu'ne.

Kodwa unina womfana wathi, “Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ephila lanjengoba uphila, angiyikukutshiya.” Ngakho wasuka walandela owesifazane.

31 Hanki Gehasia vugota huno Elisa azompa ana mofavremofo avugosafi ome ante'ne. Hianagi tamage huno mago'zana forera osu'ne. Ana higeno Gehasia ete vuno Elisa'ma kantegama ne-egeno ome asmino, Kema nasmi'nazana ome huanagi ana mofavremo'a oraoti'ne.

UGehazi wahle wagijima phambili wayabeka intonga ebusweni bomfana, kodwa akuzwakalanga lutho njalo kanyikinyekanga. Ngakho uGehazi wabuyela ukuyahlangabeza u-Elisha wamtshela wathi, “Umfana kavukanga.”

32 Higeno Elisa'a nonte uhanatiteno umarerino keana, agrama nemasea sipare, anama fri'nea risera mase'negeno ke'ne.

Ekufikeni kwakhe endlini u-Elisha, wafumana lakanye nangu umfana usembhedeni wakhe ufile.

33 Hagi hunaragintepinka umarerino kahana erigiteno, Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne.

Wangena wavala umnyango baba bobabili lomfana wasekhuleka kuThixo.

34 Anante ana rise'ma mase'nea sipare marerino ana rise'mofo agofetu unemaseno, agira agite nenteno, avurga avure nenteno, azana azante ante'ne. Ana higeno ana rise'mofo avufgamo'a osi'a amuho hukna hu'ne.

Wakhwela embhedeni wacambalala phezu komfana, umlomo emlonyeni, amehlo emehlweni, izandla ezandleni. Uthe esazelula phezu komfana, umzimba womfana waqalisa ukukhudumala.

35 Amuho higeno otino osi'a ana nompi vano huteno ete mago'ene ana huno avufgare mase'ne. Mase'negeno seveni'a zupa kasera ruteno avurga ruhari hu'ne.

U-Elisha wafulathela wahambahamba endlini waphinda wabuyela embhedeni wacambalala phezu komfana. Umfana wathimula kasikhombisa wasevula amehlo.

36 Ana'ma nehiana Elisa'a Gehasina kehigeno egeno anage huno asmi'ne, vunka nererana ome kehugeno eno, higeno kema hiaza huno Gehasi'a ana ara ome kehigeno emarerigeno, Elisa'a huno, ne'mofavreka'a ete avro.

U-Elisha wabiza uGehazi wathi kuye, “Biza umShunami.” Wakwenza lokho. Uthe esefikile wasesithi kuye owesifazane, “Thatha indodana yakho.”

37 Higeno ana a'mo'a anampinka emarerino Elisana agafi avugosaregati emeseno kepri huno humuse hunenteno, ana mofavre'a avreno megi'a atiramino vu'ne.

UmShunami wangena, wawela ezinyaweni zakhe wakhothama. Wasethatha indodana yakhe wahamba.

38 Mago'a kna evutegeno Elisa'a eteno Gilgali vu'neana ana mopafina ne'zana fanane higeno tusi'a zamaga tonto hu'ne. Hanki anampima mago'a nemaniza kasnampa vahe'mo'za agrane mago zupa eme eritru hu'za mani'naze. Ana hazageno Elisa'a kato ne'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Rankavo erinka ana kasnampa vahera ne'zana krezamanto.

U-Elisha wabuyela eGiligali njalo kulesosigaba kwakulendlala. Kwathi esesemhlanganweni lexuku labaphrofethi, wathuma isisebenzi sakhe wathi, “Beka imbiza enkulu eziko, uphekele abaphrofethi ukudla.”

39 Higeno kasnampa vahepinti mago'mo vuno kamo'za ome huno eme kreku nevuno ome keana, afi hagonefa rente'negeno ome keteno, e'i afi hagonefa me'ne huno ontahineno, mago'a tagiazamo zaza kena'afi erinteno e'ne. Eteno anante eme akrakru hiazamo ana kamo'ene kavofina kre'ne.

Omunye wabo wayakukha imibhida egangeni wathola ivini leganga. Wakha amajodwana wagcwalisa ophikweni lwesigqoko sakhe. Ekuphendukeni kwakhe wawaqobaqoba wawafaka embizeni yesitshebo lanxa kungekho owayesazi ukuthi kuyini.

40 Hanki ana ne'zama tafepi atintete'za, ana kasnampa vahe'mo'za agafa hu'za nene'za krafa hu'za, Ra Anumzamofo vahe Elisaga ama ne'zamo'a tusi akaheankino vahe tahe frigahie nehu'za one'za atre'naze.

Kwaphakululwa ukuba abantu badle, kodwa bathi beqalisa ukudla bamemeza bathi, “Awu muntu kaNkulunkulu kulokufa embizeni!” Kabazabe besakudla.

41 Hanki anama hazageno Elisa'a zamasamino, witireti trohu flaua erita eho, hige'za eri'za azageno ana kamo'ma kre'naza kavofi ana flauara netreno kato ne'agu huno, refko hunka tafepi zamige'za neho. Higeno kema hiaza huno eri'za ne'amo'a maka kasnampa vahera atino zamige'za ne'nazanagi, ana ne'zamo'a zamazeri havizana osu'ne.

U-Elisha wathi, “Lethani ifulawa.” Wayifaka embizeni wasesithi, “Baphakuleleni abantu badle.” Ngalokho kwakungaselabuthi embizeni.

42 Mago zupa Ba'al-Salisa rankumateti e'nea ne'mo'a, ese hamre'naza bali ragareti tro hu'naza bretiramina 20'a enerino, mago'a kasefa bali raganena ku'afi erarineno Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Elisante egeno, Elisa'a kato ne'a asmino, Ama ne'zana ama vahera zamige'za neho.

Kwafika indoda ethile ivela eBhali-Shalisha, iphathele umuntu kaNkulunkulu izinkwa zebhali ezingamatshumi amabili, zibhekhwe ngezilimo zakuqala. U-Elisha wathi, “Nikani abantu badle.”

43 Anage higeno kato ne'amo'a Elisana antahigeno, Inankna hu'na ama 100'a vahera, asama ne'zana zamisuge'za negahaze. Higeno Elisa'a ana kemofo nona huno, Zaminke'za neho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a huno, nenesageno mago'a amne megahie hianki zaminke'za neho.

Inceku yakhe yathi, “Ngingababela njani abantu abalikhulu okungaka?” Kodwa u-Elisha wathi, “Phakululela abantu badle. Ngoba ilizwi likaThixo lithi: ‘Bazakudla baze bakutshiye.’”

44 Anante Elisana kato ne'amo'a ana ne'zana zamige'za nenageno, Ra Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante anteno mago'a amne me'ne.

Inceku yasiphakululela abantu, badla baze bakutshiya, njengokutsho kwelizwi likaThixo.
