2 Mpanjaka 6
1 Ary hoy ireo zanaky ny mpaminany tamin’ i Elisa: Indro, tsy omby anay ny toerana izay itoeranay eto aminao.
The sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "See now, the place where we dwell before you is too small for us.
2 Masìna ianao, aoka hankany Jordana izahay, ka samy haka hazo iray avy any, dia hanao trano ho anay any mba hitoeranay. Ary hoy izy: mandehana ary ianareo.
Please let us go to the Jordan, and every man take a beam from there, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell." He answered, "Go."
3 Fa hoy ny anankiray: Masìna ianao, aoka mba hiaraka amin’ ny mpanomponao ho any koa ianao. Ary izy namaly hoe: Handeha ihany aho.
One said, "Please be pleased to go with your servants." He answered, "I will go."
4 Ka dia niaraka taminy izy. Ary nony tonga tany Jordana ireo, dia nikapa hazo.
So he went with them. When they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.
5 Fa nony nikapa hazo ny anankiray, dia latsaka tany anaty rano ny lela-famaky; ka dia nitaraina hoe izy: Indrisy, tompoko, nindramina iny.
But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water. Then he cried, and said, "Alas, my master. For it was borrowed."
6 Ary hoy ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra: Taiza no nahalatsahany? Dia natorony azy izay nahalatsahany. Ary Elisa nanapaka hazo, ka natsipiny teo, dia nitsinkafona ilay lela-famaky.
The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" He showed him the place. He cut down a stick, threw it in there, and made the iron float.
7 Ary hoy izy: Indro, raisonao izy. Dia narosony ny tànany, ka noraisiny.
He said, "Take it." So he put out his hand and took it.
8 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Syria niady tamin’ ny Isiraely ka nilaza tamin’ ny mpanompony hoe: Any Anonana no hitobiako.
Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel; and he took counsel with his servants, saying, "My camp will be in such and such a place."
9 Ary ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra kosa naniraka tany amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nanao hoe: Tandremo fandrao mankany Ananona ianao; fa any no hidinan’ ny Syriana.
The man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, "Beware that you not pass such a place; for the Arameans are coming down there."
10 Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely naniraka tany amin’ izay nolazain’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra taminy sy nananarany azy, ka nampiambina tany tsy indray mandeha, na indroa aza.
The king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of; and he saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Dia sosotra indrindra ny fon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria noho izany zavatra izany; koa niantso ny mpanompony izy ary nanao taminy hoe: Tsy hambaranareo ahy va izay eto amintsika momba ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely?
The heart of the king of Aram was very troubled about this. He called his servants, and said to them, "Won't you show me which of us is for the king of Israel?"
12 Ary hoy ny mpanompony anankiray: Tsy misy, ry mpanjaka tompoko; fa Elisa mpaminany ao amin’ ny Isiraely ihany no milaza amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely na dia izay teny lazainao ao amin’ ny trano fandrianao aza.
One of his servants said, "No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom."
13 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Andeha, izahao izay itoerany mba hanirahako hisambotra azy. Ary nolazaina taminy hoe: Indro, ao Dotana izy.
He said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and get him." It was told him, saying, "Look, he is in Dothan."
14 Ary dia nampandeha soavaly sy kalesy ary miaramila be ho any izy; ka tonga alina ireo ary nanodidina ny tanàna.
Therefore he sent horses, chariots, and a great army there. They came by night, and surrounded the city.
15 Ary rehefa nifoha maraina koa ny zatovon’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ka nivoaka, dia, indreo, nisy miaramila sy soavaly ary kalesy manodidina ny tanàna. Dia hoy ilay zatovo taminy: Indrisy, tompoko! Ahoana no hataontsika?
When the servant of the man of God had risen early, and gone out, look, an army with horses and chariots was around the city. His servant said to him, "Alas, my master. What shall we do?"
16 Ary hoy Elisa: Aza matahotra; fa ny momba antsika dia be noho ny momba azy.
He answered, "Do not be afraid; for those who are with us are more than those who are with them."
17 Ary Elisa nivavaka hoe: Jehovah ô, mifona aminao aho, ampahirato ny masony mba hahitany. Ary Jehovah nampahiratra ny mason’ ilay zatovo; ary dia nahita izy, ka, indro, ny tendrombohitra feno soavaly sy kalesy afo manodidina an’ i Elisa.
Then Elisha prayed and said, "YHWH, please open his eyes, that he may see." YHWH opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and look, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha.
18 Dia nidina nankany aminy ireo, ary Elisa nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Mifona aminao aho, ataovy manjambena ireto olona ireto. Ary dia nataony manjambena ireo araka ny tenin’ i Elisa.
When they came down to him, Elisha prayed to YHWH, and said, "Please strike this people with blindness." He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
19 Ary hoy Elisa taminy: Tsy ity no lalana, ary tsy ity no tanàna; fa manaraha ahy ianareo, dia hitondra anareo ho any amin’ ny lehilahy tadiavinareo aho. Dia nentiny nankany Samaria ireo.
Elisha said to them, "This is not the way, neither is this the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek." He led them to Samaria.
20 Ary rehefa tonga tany Samaria izy ireo, dia hoy Elisa: Jehovah ô, ampahirato ny mason’ ireto mba hahitany. Ary Jehovah nampahiratra ny masony, dia nahita izy; ka, indro, tao afovoan’ i Samaria izy.
It happened, when they had come into Samaria, that Elisha said, "YHWH, open the eyes of these men, that they may see." YHWH opened their eyes, and they saw; and look, they were in the midst of Samaria.
21 Ary nony nahita azy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Elisa: Ry ikaky ô, hasiako va izy? Hasiako va izy?
The king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, "My father, shall I strike them? Shall I strike them?"
22 Fa izy namaly hoe: Aza asianao izy; moa asianao izay nobaboinao tamin’ ny sabatrao sy ny tsipìkanao? Rosoy mofo sy rano eo anoloany mba hohaniny sy hosotroiny ary handehanany any amin’ ny tompony.
He answered, "You shall not strike them. Would you strike those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master."
23 Dia nanao fanasana lehibe ho azy ny mpanjaka; ary rehefa nihinana sy nisotro ireo, dia nampandehaniny, ary dia nankany amin’ ny tompony izy. Koa dia tsy nankany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely intsony ny mpitoha adin’ i Syria.
He prepared great feast for them. When they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. The bands of Aram stopped raiding the land of Israel.
24 Ary rehefa afaka izany, Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, namory ny miaramilany rehetra, dia niakatra ka nanao fahirano an’ i Samaria.
It happened after this, that Benhadad king of Aram gathered all his army, and went up and besieged Samaria.
25 Dia nisy mosary mafy tany Samaria; fa indro, nanao fahirano azy ireo mandra-pahatongan’ ny loham-boriky ho lafo sekely valo-polo sy ny taim-boromailala ampahefatry ny kaba ho sekely dimy.
There was a great famine in Samaria. Look, they besieged it, until a donkey's head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.
26 Ary raha nitsangantsangana teny ambonin’ ny manda ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia nisy vehivavy nitaraina taminy hoe: Vonjeo aho, ry mpanjaka tompoko.
As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, saying, "Help, my lord, O king."
27 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Raha tsy vonjen’ i Jehovah ianao, aiza no hamonjeko anao? Amin’ ny famoloana va, sa amin’ ny famiazam-boaloboka?
He said, "If YHWH doesn't help you, from where could I help you? From of the threshing floor, or from the winepress?"
28 Ary hoy koa ny mpanjaka taminy: Inona ary no alahelonao? Ary ravehivavy namaly hoe: Hoy ity vehivavy ity tamiko: Aiza ny zanakao hohanintsika anio, ary ny zanako kosa hohanintsika rahampitso.
The king said to her, "What ails you?" She answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.'
29 Ka dia nandrahoinay ny zanako ka nohaninay; ary nony ampitso, dia hoy izaho taminy: Aiza kosa ny zanakao mba hohanintsika? kanjo nafeniny ny zanany.
So we boiled my son, and ate him: and I said to her on the next day, 'Give your son, that we may eat him;' and she has hidden her son."
30 Ary nony nandre ny tenin-dravehivavy ny mpanjaka, dia nandriatra ny fitafiany; ary nitsangantsangana teny ambonin’ ny manda izy, ka hitan’ ny olona fa, indro lamba fisaonana no nataony manolo-koditra.
It happened, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he tore his clothes. Now he was passing by on the wall, and the people looked and saw that he had sackcloth against his skin.
31 Dia hoy izy: Hataon’ Andriamanitra amiko anie izany, eny, mihoatra noho izany aza, raha tsy hotapahina anio ny lohan’ i Elisa, zanak’ i Safata.
Then he said, "God do so to me, and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stay on him this day."
32 Fa Elisa nipetraka tao an-tranony, ary ny loholona nipetraka tao aminy; ary ny mpanjaka naniraka olona avy teo aminy; fa raha tsy mbola tonga tany amin’ i Elisa iny iraka iny, dia hoy izy tamin’ ny loholona: Hitanareo va ny nanirahan’ ity zanaky ny mpamono olona ity hanapaka ny lohako? Izahao, ka raha avy ny iraka, dia arindrino ny varavarana, ary atoseho mafy hisakana azy; tsy eo aoriany koa va ny fingadongadon’ ny tongotry ny tompony?
But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. Then the king sent a man from before him; but before the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, "Do you see how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and hold the door shut against him. Isn't the sound of his master's feet behind him?"
33 Ary raha mbola niresaka taminy izy, indro, nidina nankao aminy ny iraka ka nanao hoe: Indro, izao loza izao avy amin’ i Jehovah; ka inona intsony no anantenako an’ i Jehovah?
While he was still talking with them, look, the messenger came down to him. Then he said, "Look, this disaster is from YHWH. Why should I wait for YHWH any longer?"
