1 Mago zupa kasnampa naga'moza Elisanku amanage hu'naze, Tagrama eta kagranema eme atru huta nemanuna nomo'a osi hu'negeta titipa nehune.
One day a group of prophets said to Elisha, “Look, this place where we meet together with you is very small.
2 Hagi kagra amne tatresanketa Jodani tintega vuta tamente tamente zafa ome antagitere huta, eme atruma huta manisuna nona kasefa kigahumpi? Hazageno Elisa'a kenona huno, Knareki kema hazaza huta viho.
Allow us to go to the Jordan [River and cut down some trees to make] logs to build a new meeting place.” So Elisha said, “Okay, go.”
3 Anante mago kasnampa ne'mo'a Elisana amanage huno antahige'ne, Muse hugantoanki tagranena amne egahampi? Higeno Elisa'a huno, Izo amane tamagranena vugahue.
One of them said to Elisha, “Please come with us.” So Elisha replied, “Okay, I will go with you.”
4 Anagema huteno'a Elisa'a zamagrane vige'za, Jodani tinte'ma vute'za, agafa hu'za zafaramina antagi'naze.
So they went together. When they reached the Jordan [River], they cut down some trees.
5 Hianagi kasnampa vahe'pinti mago'zamimo'a zafa nentagigeno sa'ume'amo'a katiramino Jodani timpi fre'ne. Ana higeno kezatino, Oho, kva vahe'nimoka, vahe sau'me zamantahige'na eri'na e'noa saumemo katiramino timpi fre'ne.
But while one of them was cutting down a tree, suddenly the axe head [separated from the handle and] fell into the water. He cried out to Elisha, “O, Master, what shall I do? [The axe is not mine]; I borrowed it!”
6 Hanki anante Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Elisa'a amanage hu'ne, Inante saumemo'a ufre'ne, higeno ufre'neama'a asami ankeretegeno, Elisa'a osi zafa azanku'na rukafrino anama ufrenere atregeno ana sasumemo'a timofo avozare mareri'ne.
Elisha replied, “Where did it fall into the water?” After the man showed him the place, Elisha cut off a stick, and threw it into the water, and caused the iron axe head to float [on top of the water].
7 Anama higeno'a Elisa'a huno, Hanki erio, huno higeno ana kasnampa ne'mo'a azana ante henkamuteno ana sa'umena eri'ne.
Elisha said, “Take it out of the water.” So the man reached his hand down and picked up the axe head.
8 Hanki knane knanena Siria kini ne'mo'ma Israeli vahe'ma ha'ma eme huzamanteku'ma nehuno'a, e'ire e'ire seli nonkumara ome anteta mani'neta Israeli vahera hara huzmantegahune huno sondia vahete kva vahe'age zamavaretru huno kea anaki'ne.
Whenever the king of Syria [prepared to send his army to] fight against Israel, he first consulted his officers, and then told them where they should set up their tents.
9 Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Elisa'a Israeli kini netega anage huno kea atrente'ne, Siria vahe'mo'za hahuranteku seli nonkuma eme antazanki kva hu'nenka e'irega ovuo huno asamitere hu'ne.
But each time, Elisha would send a message to warn the king of Israel, [telling him where the army of Syria was planning to attack them, ] saying, “Be sure that your army does not go near that place, because the army of Syria has set up their tents there.”
10 Anagema higeno'a, Israeli kini ne'mo'a sondia vahe'a huzmantege'za vu'za Elisa'ma zamasamirera ome kva hutere hu'naze. Rama'a zupa ana hutere hu'naze.
So the king of Israel would send [messengers] to warn [the people who lived in] that place, and the people would remain on guard. That happened several times.
11 Anama nehazageno'a, Siria kini ne'mofona tusi rimpahe'ne. Ana higeno Siria kini ne'mo'a, sondia vahete ugagota kva vahera kehige'za azageno amanage huno zamantahige'ne, ina ne'mo Israeli kini netega anteno, tagrama huna kea ome nesamifi nasamiho?
The king of Syria was very upset/disturbed/angry about that. So he summoned his army officers and said to them, “[Obviously] one of you is (betraying us/revealing our plans) to the king of Israel. Which one of you is doing it?”
12 Higeno mago eri'za vahe'amo'a asmino, a'o tagra ome nosamunanki Israelima mani'nea kasnampa ne' Elisa agra Israeli kini nera nesamiankino, nemsampinkama oku'ama hana nanekenena nentahino agra nesamie.
One of his officers answered, “Your Majesty, it is not one of us. Elisha the prophet [knows what we plan to do, and he] tells the king of Israel everything. He even knows what you say in your own bedroom!”
13 Anagema higeno'a, kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahe'a zamasamino, inantega Elisa'a mani'nefi ome haketa ketenke'na sondia vahe huzmanta'nena vu'za ome avre'za amare eho. Hige'za vu'za ome hake'za kefore hute'za e'za anage hu'naze, Agra Dotani kumate mani'ne.
The king of Syria replied, “Go and find out where he is, and I will send [some men there] to capture him.” Someone told him, “People say that he is in Dothan [town north of Samaria].”
14 Higeno kini ne'mo'a tusi sondia vahe krerafane, hosi afutamine, karisiramine zamatrege'za kenage Dotani vu'za ana rankumara kafo ome ante'za avazagi kagi'naze.
So the king sent a large group of soldiers [to Dothan] with horses and chariots. They arrived at night and surrounded the town.
15 Hanki Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Elisa kato ne'mo'a nanterana atiramino keana, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za karisine, hosi afu'zmine emani'ne'za ana kumara avazigaginte'nageno zamage'ne. Ana huteno otino anage hu'ne, Oho kva vahe'nimoka, Siria vahe'mo'za tavazagi kagi'nazanki, tagra na'a hugahune?
Early the next morning, Elisha’s servant got up and went outside the house. He saw the soldiers of Syria with their horses and chariots surrounding the town. So he went inside [the house and reported it to Elisha] and exclaimed, “O, sir! What are we going to do?”
16 Higeno Elisa'a amanage huno asami'ne, Kagra korora osuo. Na'ankure tagri kazigama mani'namo'za zamagrira zamagatere'za rama'a mani'naze.
Elisha replied, “Do not be afraid! Those who will be helping us will be more than those who will be helping them!”
17 Anante Elisa'a nunamuna amanage huno hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka muse hugantoanki avua erihari hugeno keno, higeno Ra Anumzamo'a avua erihari higeno keana, mani'nampi me'nea agonaramimpina tusi'a hosi afutamimo'ene, tevenefake karisiramimo Elisana megaginte'negeno ke'ne.
Then he prayed, “Yahweh, I request that you open my servant’s eyes in order that he can see [what is out there]!” So Yahweh enabled the servant to look out and see that surrounding the hill on which the town [was built] was a huge number of horses, and chariots made of fire!
18 Hagi anante Siria sondia vahe'mo'za agrama mani'neregama erami tava'oma nehazageno'a, Elisa'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka ama sondia vahe'mokizmia zamavua erisu huo, huno higeno Elisa'ma hia kante, Ra Anumzamo'a sondia vahe'mokizmi zamavua erisu hu'ne.
When the army of Syria prepared to attack Elisha, he prayed again, saying, “Yahweh, cause all these soldiers to become blind!” Yahweh answered his prayer and caused them to be unable to see clearly.
19 Higeno Elisa'a amanage huno ana sondia vahe'mokizmia zamasami'ne, Kana hazagreta ru kumate e'naze. Hu'negu namage navaririta enke'na anama kenaku'ma aza ne'mofonte tamavre'na va'neno. Anage hige'za Elisana amage vazageno zamavareno Sameria rankumate vu'ne.
Then Elisha went to them and said, “You are not on the right road; this is not the city that you are searching for. I will take you to the man whom you are searching for.” But he led them to Samaria, [the capital of Israel]!
20 Hagi anama Sameria rankumapima ufretazageno'a, Elisa'a amanage hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka ama sondia vahe'mokizmi zamavua erihari huge'za ete keho. Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a zamavua ete erihari hige'za kazana zamagra Sameria kumamofo amu'nompi mani'naze.
As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha prayed again, saying, “Yahweh, now enable these soldiers to see correctly again!” So Yahweh enabled them to see correctly, and they were surprised to see that they were inside Samaria [city].
21 Anama hazazama Israeli kini ne'mo'ma negeno'a, Elisana amanage huno asami'ne, Nenfaga hu i'zo huge'na ama vahera zamahe fri'neno?
When the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, “Sir, shall I [tell my soldiers to] kill them? Shall we kill all of them?”
22 Higeno Elisa'a kenona'a amanage hu'ne, kagra ozamahegahane. Na'ankure kazinuti'ene atireti'ma ha'ma hunka zamavrana vahera, zamahe nofrine. E'ina hu'negu ne'zane tine nezaminka zamatrege'za kinizmima mani'nerega ete viho.
Elisha replied, “No, you must not kill them. If your army captured many of your enemies in a battle, you would certainly not [RHQ] kill them. Give these men something to eat and drink, and then allow them to return to their king.”
23 Higeno Israeli kini ne'mo'a tusi'a ne'za ana sondia vahera krezmantage'za, ana ne'zane tinena nevagama retazageno, huzmantege'za ete kini zamimo'ma Siriama mani'nerege vu'naze. Ana hige'za Siria sondia vahe'mo'za mago'enena e'za Israeli vahera rohura eme ozami'naze.
So the king of Israel did that. He told his servants to provide a big feast for them. And when they had eaten and drunk plenty, he sent them away. They returned to the king of Syria [and told him what had happened]. So for a while after that, soldiers from Syria stopped raiding/attacking towns in Israel.
24 Hanki henka, mago'a kafua evutegeno, Siria kini ne' Ben-Hadati'a maka sondia vahe'a zamazeri tru hutege'za, vu'za Sameria kumara ha' huzamantenaku ome kafonte'za avazagigagi'naze.
But some time later, Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, assembled his entire army, and they went to Samaria and surrounded the city [for a long time].
25 Hagi za'za kna Siria vahe'mo'za Sameria kumara kafo ante'za avazagigagi zamantazage'za, vu'za e'za hu'za ne'zama eri'za nekana omanegeno, Sameria kumapina tusi'a zamagatontoza fore hu'ne. Higeno mago vahe'mo'ma tonki afu'mofo aseni'ama mizama hu'naku'ma hu'neana, kna'amo'a 0.9kilo hu'nea silva zagoreti miza nehu'za, namamofo rifa'a kna'amo'ma 63gremi hu'neana, kna'amo'a 57gremi hu'nea silva zagoreti mizase avamente vu'ne.
Because of that, after a while there was hardly any food left inside the city, with the result that eventually a donkey’s head, [which was usually worthless, ] cost eighty pieces of silver, and (one cup/0.3 liter) of dove’s dung cost five pieces of silver.
26 Ana'ma higeno mago zupa Israeli kini ne'mo'a have keginamofo agofetu enevigeno mago a'mo'a kezatino, kini'nimoka muse hugantoanki, naza huo.
One day when the king of Israel was walking on top of the city wall, a woman cried out to him, “Your Majesty, help me!”
27 Anage higeno kini ne'mo'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Ra Anumzamo'ma kazama nosanige'na, nagra nankna hu'na kaza hugahue? Kagrama antahinana witima neharaza kumapinti witia eri kamige, wainima regatatima nehaza kumapintira wainia eri'na kaza hugahuo? A'o anara osugahue.
He replied, “If Yahweh will not help you, I certainly cannot [RHQ] help you. I certainly [RHQ] do not have any wheat or wine!
28 Anante ana kini ne'mo'a ana ara antahigeno, Nagra na'a hugante'nuegu nehane? Higeno ana a'mo'a kini nera asmino, Ama a'mo'a nagriku huno, ne'mofavreka'a menina ahegeta neteta, okina nagra ne'mofavreni'a ahesugeta negahu'e hu'ne.
What is your problem?” She replied, “Several days ago, that woman [over there] said to me, ‘[Because we have nothing left to eat, ] let’s kill your son today, in order that we can eat his flesh. Then tomorrow we can [kill] my son [and] eat his flesh.’
29 Hige'na nagra mofavre'ni'a ahogeta kavofi kreta neteta, anante knazupa agri nonte vu'na, kagra mofavre'ka'a ahegeta na'mneno hu'na huana, agra mofavre'a azeri fraki'ne.
So we [killed my son and cut his body up and] boiled his flesh and ate it. The next day, I said to her, ‘Now give your son to me, in order that we can [kill him and cook his flesh and] eat it.’ But she has hidden her son!”
30 Higeno ana a'mofo kema kini ne'mo'ma nentahino'a, avatera asunku kukena hu'neno, amegama antani'nea kini zaza kukena'a tagato tugutu nehuno, ana have keginamofo agofetu nevige'za, ke'naze.
When the king heard what the woman said, he tore his robe [to show that he was very distressed]. The people who were standing close to the wall were able to see that the king was wearing rough cloth underneath his robe [because he was very distressed].
31 Anante kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Amama e'neruna knazamofo agafa'a Elisa mani'ne. E'ina hu'negu nagra menina Sarafati kumateti ne' Elisana ananke akafrigahue. Ana'ma osanugeno'a, Anumzamo'a ama ana knare okina nagrira nazeri havizantfa hugahie.
The king exclaimed, “I wish/hope that God will strike me dead if I do not cut off the head of Elisha today, [because he is the one who has caused these terrible things to happen to us]!”
32 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma anagema huteno'a, mago eri'za vahe huntegeno Elisa'ma mani'nerega vu'ne. Hanki ana zupa Elisa'a noma'afi Israeli ranra kva vahe'ene atru hu'za mago'a zanku keaga nehu'za mani'nazageno, kini ne'mo'ma huntegeno ugota huno vu'nea eri'za nera uohanati'negeno, Elisa'a ana ranra kva vahetamina amanage huno zamasami'ne, Vahe'ma zamahe fri kini ne'mofo mofavremo'a, nagri nananke akafrinogu mago vahe huntegeno ne-e. Hianagi ana ne'ma esanigeta, kafa erigita rentrako hinkeno, nompina emareorino. Anama hanageno'a, kini ne'mo'a agra'a ana nera avaririno egahie.
So the king sent an officer to get Elisha. Before the officer arrived, Elisha was sitting in his house with some Israeli elders who were talking with him. Elisha said to them, “That murderer, [the king of Israel, ] is sending someone here to kill me. Listen: When he arrives, shut the door and do not allow him to come in. And the king will be coming right behind that officer!”
33 Hagi Elisa'a ana keaga huvaga orenegeno, kini ne'mofo kema erino vuno e'noma hu eri'za ne'mo'a agrite eramino e'ne. Hagi anante kini ne'mo'enena eno amanage hu'ne, Ra Anumzamo'a ama knazana atregeno tagritera efore nehie. Ana nehigu mago knare'zana Ra Anumzamo'a tagrira taza osugahiankina agrira mago'enena avegante'na omanigahue.
And while he was still speaking, the king and the officer arrived. The king said, “It is Yahweh who has caused us to have all this trouble/suffering. (Why should I wait any longer [RHQ] for him to do something [to help us]?/It is useless for me to wait any longer for him [to help us]!)”
