2 Bassekabaka 4

1 Awo olwatuuka ne wabaawo nnamwandu, eyali afumbiddwa omu ku abo abaali mu kibiina kya bannabbi, n’agenda eri Erisa ng’akaaba n’amugamba nti, “Omuddu wo, baze yafa, era omanyi nga omuddu wo yatyanga Mukama. Naye kaakano eyali amubanja azze, ng’ayagala okutwala batabani bange okubafuula abaddu be.”

Da bi, Elisa mfɛfo adiyifo no mu baako kunafo baa ne nkyɛn, besu kyerɛɛ no se, “Me kunu a na ɔsom wo no awu. Na wunim sɛnea na osuro Awurade. Nanso mprempren obi a mede no ka aba rehunahuna se, ɔbɛfa me mmabarima baanu sɛ nkoa.”

2 Erisa n’amuddamu nti, “Oyagala nkuyambe ntya? Ntegeeza, olina ki mu nnyumba?” N’amugamba nti, “Omuweereza wo ky’alinawo kyokka mu nnyumba twe tufuta otutono ennyo.”

Elisa bisaa no se, “Dɛn na metumi ayɛ de aboa wo? Kyerɛ me nneɛma a wowɔ wɔ fie.” Obuae se, “Minni hwee sɛ ngo ahina baako.”

3 Erisa n’amugamba nti, “Genda mu baliraanwa bo bonna obeeyazikeko ebintu ebyereere, nga bingi ddala.

Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ “Kɔfɛm nhina dodow biara a wubenya afi wo nnamfonom ne wo mfɛfo nkyɛn.

4 Oyingire mu nnyumba yo weggaliremu ggwe ne batabani bo, ottululire amafuta mu bintu ebyo byonna, ng’ekijjula ky’ossa wa bbali.”

Afei, fa wo mmabarima no kɔ wo fi, na to pon mu. Hwie ngo no fi wʼahina no mu, gugu nhina no mu. Nea ɛbɛyɛ ma biara, yi si nkyɛn.”

5 Bwe yava waali n’addayo eka ne yeggalira mu nnyumba ye n’abaana be. Ne bamuleetera ebita nga ye bw’attulula.

Enti ɔyɛɛ saa. Ne mmabarima no de nhina bebree brɛɛ no, ma ɔhyehyɛɛ no amaama.

6 Ebintu byonna ebyali awo bwe byajjula, n’agamba omu ku batabani be nti, “Ndeetera ekintu ekirala.” Naye n’amuddamu nti, “Biweddeyo.” Awo amafuta ne gakoma.

Ankyɛ na emu biara yɛɛ ma tɛnn. Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne mmabarima no mu baako se, “Brɛ me ahina foforo.” Ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ebi nni hɔ bio.” Na afei ngo no a ɔrehwie no sae.

7 Amangwago nnamwandu n’addayo ew’omusajja wa Katonda. Omusajja wa Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Genda otunde amafuta ago, osasule amabanja go, ebinaafikkawo bikuliisenga ggwe ne batabani bo.”

Bere a ɔkaa asɛm a asi no kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn nipa no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Afei, tɔn ngo no, na fa tua wʼaka, na sika no bi bɛka ama wode ahwɛ wo ho ne wo mmabarima no.”

8 Awo olwatuuka Erisa n’agenda e Sunemu. Mu Sunemu mwalimu omukazi nnaggagga, eyamwegayirira alye ku mmere ey’omu nnyumba ye. Awo olwatuuka, buli lwe yayitangawo, n’akyamira eyo okulya ku mmere.

Da koro bi, Elisa kɔɔ Sunem kurow mu. Na ɔbea ɔdefo bi te kurow no mu. Ɔtoo nsa frɛɛ Elisa sɛ ommedidi. Efi saa bere no, bere biara a obetwa mu wɔ hɔ no, ɔfa hɔ kodidi.

9 Omukazi n’agamba bba nti, “Laba kimbikkuliddwa nti oyo musajja wa Katonda, atera okuyitira wano.

Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne kunu se, “Migye di sɛ saa ɔbarima yi a ɔtaa ba ha yi yɛ Onyankopɔn nipa kronkron.

10 Kale nno katumutegekere ekisenge waggulu, tumuteekereyo ekitanda n’emmeeza, n’entebe, n’ettabaaza by’anaakozesanga ng’azze okutukyalira.”

Ma yensiesie ɔdan bi mma no wɔ soro hɔ na yɛmfa mpa, ɔpon, akongua ne kanea nsi mu mma no. Na bere biara a ɔbɛba ha no, wanya baabi asoɛ.”

11 Lumu, Erisa n’akyalayo, n’agenda mu kisenge kye, n’awummulirako eyo.

Da bi, Elisa san baa Sunem. Ɔkɔɔ ne soro dan no mu kɔsoɛe.

12 N’agamba omuweereza we Gekazi nti, “Yita Omusunammu oyo.” N’amuyita, n’ajja n’ayimirira mu maaso ge.

Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne somfo Gehasi se, “Ka kyerɛ ɔbea no se, mepɛ sɛ meka asɛm bi kyerɛ no.” Ɔbea no bae no,

13 Erisa n’agamba Gekazi nti, “Mugambe nti, ‘Otulabiridde bulungi nnyo. Kaakano kiki kyewandyagadde kikukolerwe? Wandyagadde tukwogerere eri Kabaka oba ew’omuduumizi w’eggye ku nsonga yonna?’” N’amuddamu nti, “Mbeera mu bantu bange.”

Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Ka kyerɛ no se, yɛn ani asɔ ne som pa a wasom yɛn no. Na bisa no nea yɛn so yebetumi ayɛ ama no. Ɔpɛ sɛ midi ne ho adanse kyerɛ ɔhene anaa asraafo sahene no?” Obuae se, “Dabi, efisɛ mʼabusuafo hwɛ me yiye.”

14 Erisa n’abuuza Gekazi nti, “Kiki ekiba kimukolerwa?” Gekazi n’addamu nti, “Laba talina mwana, ate ng’akaddiye.”

Akyiri no, Elisa bisaa Gehasi se, “Dɛn na wugye di sɛ yebetumi ayɛ ama no?” Ɔtow maa no se, “Onni babarima na ne kunu nso abɔ akwakoraa.”

15 Erisa n’amugamba nti, “Muyite.” Bwe yamuyita, n’ajja n’ayimirira mu mulyango.

Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Frɛ no bra bio.” Ɔbea no bae no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no wɔ ɔpon no ano se,

16 Erisa n’amugamba nti, “Omwaka ogujja, mu biro ng’ebya kaakano oliwambaatira omwana owoobulenzi.” Omukyala n’amuddamu nti, “Nedda mukama wange, tolimba muweereza wo, ayi omusajja wa Katonda.”

“Afe sesɛɛ saa bere yi ara mu, na ɔbabarima da wo srɛ so.” Ɔteɛɛ mu se, “Dabi, me wura, mesrɛ wo, ntwa me nkontompo saa. Onyankopɔn nipa.”

17 Naye oluvannyuma omukazi n’aba olubuto, era omwaka ogwaddirira mu biro bye bimu, n’azaala omwana wabulenzi, nga Erisa bwe yali amugambye.

Na ampa ara, bere tiaa bi akyi no, ɔbea no nyinsɛnee. Na afe saa bere no ara, ɔwoo ɔbabarima sɛnea Elisa kae no pɛpɛɛpɛ.

18 Omwana n’akula, naye olunaku lumu n’addukira ewa kitaawe eyali mu nnimiro n’abakunguzi.

Ne ba no nyin no, da bi, ɔkɔsraa nʼagya a na ɔne nʼapaafo reyɛ adwuma.

19 N’amutegeeza nti, “Omutwe gunnuma, omutwe gunnuma!” Kitaawe n’agamba omu ku baddu be nti, “Mutwalire maama we.”

Prɛko pɛ, ɔkae se, “Me ti pae me! Me ti pae me!” Nʼagya ka kyerɛɛ nʼapaafo no mu baako se, “Fa no kɔ fie kɔma ne na.”

20 Awo omuddu n’amusitula n’amutwala eri nnyina, omwana n’atuula ku mubiri gwa nnyina okutuusa essaawa ey’omu ttuntu n’oluvannyuma n’afa.

Ɔpaani no de no kɔɔ fie. Ne na gyee no too ne srɛ so. Nanso, eduu owigyinae mu no, owui.

21 Nnyina n’asitula omulambo gwe, n’agutwala waggulu n’aguteeka ku kitanda eky’omusajja wa Katonda, n’afuluma, n’aggalawo oluggi.

Ɔpagyaw no de no kɔtoo Onyankopɔn nipa no mpa so. Ɔtoo pon no mu gyaw no hɔ kɔe.

22 N’atumira bba ng’agamba nti, “Mpayo omuddu omu n’endogoyi emu ŋŋende mangu ew’omusajja wa Katonda, nkomewo.”

Ɔsomaa ɔbɔfo kɔbɔɔ ne kunu amanneɛ se, “Soma apaafo no baako na ɔmfa afurum mmra, sɛnea metumi akodu Onyankopɔn nipa no hɔ ntɛm, asan aba.”

23 N’amubuuza nti, “Kiki ekikutwala gy’ali leero? Si lunaku lwa mwezi ogwakaboneka wadde olwa Ssabbiiti.” Omukazi n’amuddamu nti, “Teweeraliikirira, kiri bulungi.”

Obisae se, “Adɛn nti na wopɛ sɛ wokɔ nnɛ yi ara? Ɛnyɛ Ɔsram Foforo Afahyɛ, na ɛnyɛ homeda nso.” Nanso ɔkae se, “Ɛwɔ mu saa.”

24 Ne yeebagala endogoyi, n’agamba omuddu we nti, “Ggwe kulemberamu, totta ku bigere wabula nga nkugambye.”

Enti ɔhyehyɛɛ afurum no, ka kyerɛɛ ɔpaani no se, “Ka wo ho. Ɛnyɛ me nti na wobɛtɔ wo bo ase, na mmom, kɔ ara, gye sɛ maka sɛ tɔ wo bo ase.”

25 Ne basitula, n’agenda eri omusajja wa Katonda ku Lusozi Kalumeeri. Omusajja wa Katonda bwe yamuleengera ng’akyali walako, n’agamba omuddu we Gekazi nti, “Laba, Omusunammu wuuli!

Ɔrebedu Onyankopɔn nipa no nkyɛn wɔ bepɔw Karmel so no, Elisa huu no wɔ akyirikyiri. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Hwɛ, ɔbea a ofi Sunem no reba.

26 Dduka omusisinkane omubuuze nti, ‘Oli bulungi ne balo ali bulungi? Ate omwana?’” Omukazi n’amuddamu nti, “Kiri bulungi.”

Tu mmirika kohyia no, na bisa no se, ‘Wo ne wo kunu ne wo ba ho ye ana?’” Ɔbea no buae Gehasi se, “Yɛn nyinaa ho ye.”

27 Bwe yatuuka okumpi n’olusozi awaali omusajja wa Katonda, n’agwa wansi ne yeenyweza ku bigere by’omusajja wa Katonda. Amangwago Gekazi n’ajja ng’ayagala okumugobawo, naye omusajja wa Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Muleke! Kubanga ali mu nnaku nnyingi nnyo, ate nga Mukama tannambikkulira nsonga, wadde okugintegeeza.”

Nanso ɔbaa Onyankopɔn nipa no nkyɛn wɔ bepɔw no so no, ɔhwee ne nan ase, soo nʼanammɔn mu. Gehasi sum no, nanso Onyankopɔn nipa no kaa se, “Gyaa no. Biribi reteetee no, na Awurade nso nkyerɛɛ me dekode no.”

28 Omukazi n’alyoka ayogerera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Nakusaba omwana, mukama wange? Saakugamba obutansuubiza ekisukkiridde?”

Na ɔbea no kae se, “Wo ara me wura, wo na wokae se, menya ɔbabarima. Na manka ankyerɛ wo sɛ mma memfa mʼani nto so?”

29 Erisa n’agamba Gekazi nti, “Weesibe ekimyu, okwate omuggo gwange otambule mangu nnyo nga bw’osobola. Bw’onoosisinkana omuntu yenna mu kkubo tomulamusa, ate bw’akulamusa tomwanukula. Ddira omuggo gwange ogugalamize ku kyenyi ky’omwana.”

Na Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Boa wo ho, na mensoma wo, fa me pema no, na kɔ. Nkasa obiara ho wɔ ɔkwan so. Kɔ na fa pema no kɔto abofra no anim.”

30 Naye nnyina w’omwana n’agamba nti, “Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu, era nga naawe bw’oli omulamu, sijja kukuleka mabega.” Erisa n’asituka n’amugoberera.

Na abarimaa no na kae se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase yi, merenkɔ fie gye sɛ woka me ho.” Enti Elisa san ne no kɔe.

31 Gekazi ye n’abakulemberamu, n’agenda n’ateeka omuggo ku kyenyi ky’omulenzi, naye ne wataba kanyego newaakubadde okuddamu. Amangwago Gekazi n’addayo n’asisinkana Erisa, n’amutegeeza nti, “Omwana tagolokose.”

Gehasi yɛɛ ntɛm dii kan, de pema no kɔtoo abofra no anim, nanso biribiara ansi. Nkwa ho nsɛnkyerɛnne biara amma. Ɔsan nʼakyi kohyiaa Elisa, bɔɔ no amanneɛ se, “Abofra no nnyanee ɛ.”

32 Awo Erisa n’atuuka ku nnyumba, n’agenda butereevu mu kisenge gye yasanga omulambo gw’omwana nga gugalamiziddwa ku kitanda kye.

Bere a Elisa duu hɔ no, ampa na abofra no awu da odiyifo no mpa so.

33 N’ayingira ekisenge, ne yeggalirayo, n’atandika okusaba Mukama.

Ɔno nko kɔɔ hɔ, too ne ho pon mu, bɔɔ Awurade mpae.

34 N’alinnya waggulu ku kitanda n’agalamira ku mulambo, omumwa ku mumwa, amaaso ku maaso, n’emikono ku mikono eby’omulambo. Mu kiseera ekyo ng’akyagugalamiddeko ne gutandika okubuguumirira.

Afei, obutuw abofra no so, de nʼano tuaa abofra no ano, de nʼani fam abofra no ani, de ne nsa susoo abofra no nsa. Afei, abofra no ho fitii ase yɛɛ hyew bio.

35 Erisa n’ayimuka, n’atambulatambula mu kisenge, n’oluvannyuma n’addamu n’agalamira ku mulambo. Omulenzi n’ayasimula emirundi musanvu, omulenzi n’azibula amaaso ge.

Elisa sɔre, dii akɔneaba wɔ ɔdan no mu kakra. Afei, ɔdaa abofra no so bio. Saa bere no, abofra no nwansii mpɛn ason, na ɔtew nʼani.

36 Awo Erisa n’ayita Gekazi n’amugamba nti, “Yita Omusunammu oyo.” N’amuyita. Omusunammu bwe yajja n’amugamba nti, “Situla omwana wo.”

Afei, Elisa somaa Gehasi se, “Frɛ abofra no na bra.” Ne na no bae no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wo ba no ni, fa no kɔ.”

37 Omukazi n’ayingira, n’avuunama ku bigere bya Erisa, n’asitula omwana we n’afuluma.

Ofi ahodwiriw mu hwee ne nan ase daa no ase. Afei, ɔfaa ne ba no, de no sian kɔɔ fam.

38 Oluvannyuma, Erisa ng’azeeyo e Girugaali, ate nga mu kiseera kye kimu enjala egudde mu nsi, ekibiina kya bannabbi ne bakuŋŋaanira ewuwe. N’agamba omuweereza we nti, “Abaana ba bannabbi bafumbireyo enva mu ntamu ennene.”

Elisa san kɔɔ Gilgal, nanso na ɔkɔm asi asase no so. Da bi a adiyifokuw tete nʼanim no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ne somfo se, “Fa ɔsɛn kɛse si gya so, na yɛ abɔmu ma saa mmarima yi.”

39 Omu ku bo n’alaga mu nnimiro n’anoga amaboga, n’alaba n’omuzabbibu ogw’omu nsiko, n’anoga ku bibala byagwo ebiwera, n’assa mu lugoye lwe. N’addayo n’abisalirasalira mu ntamu ey’enva. Teyamanya nga bye yanoga birimu akabi.

Wɔn mu baako kɔɔ wuram sɛ ɔrekɔpɛ atosode, na onyaa ɛfere kotoku ma de bae. Otwitwa de guu ɔsɛn no mu a na onnim sɛ awuduru wɔ mu.

40 Buli muntu ne bamusenera ku nva; naye bwe baaziryako, ne bayogerera waggulu nti, “Omusajja wa Katonda mu ntamu mulimu okufa.” Ne batazirya.

Na wodii kakraa bi pɛ, wɔteɛteɛ mu se, “Onyankopɔn nipa, awuduru wɔ abɔmu no mu!” Ɛno nti, wɔanni bio.

41 Erisa n’agamba nti, “Mundeetereyo obuwunga.” Ne babumuleetera n’abuteeka mu ntamu y’enva, n’abagamba nti, “Mugabule abantu balye.” Ne wataba kabi mu ntamu y’enva.

Elisa kae se, “Mommrɛ me asikresiam kakra.” Ɔde guu ɔsɛn no mu, kae se, “Afei, ayɛ yiye nti munkodi.” Na anhaw wɔn bio.

42 Waaliwo omusajja eyava e Baalusalisa, n’aleetera omusajja wa Katonda emigaati egya sayiri kumi n’ebiri nga mmere ey’okubibala ebibereberye, ate era n’amuleetera n’ebirimba eby’eŋŋaano embisi. Erisa n’agamba omuweereza we nti, “Bigabire abantu babirye.”

Da bi, ɔbarima bi a ɔyɛ Baal-Salisani brɛɛ Onyankopɔn nipa no atoko foforo kotoku ma, ne brodo mua aduonu. Elisa kae se, “Fa ma adiyifokuw no, na wonni.”

43 Omuweereza we n’amuddamu nti, “Bino mbigabula ntya abantu ekikumi?”

Ɔsomfo no teɛɛ mu se, “Wuse dɛn? Kakra yi na yɛmfa mma nnipa ɔha yi ana?” Nanso Elisa tii mu se, “Fa ma adiyifokuw no na wonni, na Awurade ka se, ‘Obiara bedi amee, na bi mpo bɛka akyi.’”

44 Naye Erisa n’amuddamu nti, “Bigabire abantu babirye, kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Banaalya ne bibalemeranawo.’” N’abibagabula, ne balya, ne bibalemeranawo, ng’ekigambo kya Mukama bwe kyali.

Na ampa ara, obiara didi mee ma bi mpo kae, sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ no.
