< 2 Mpanjaka 4 >

1 Nitoreo amy Elisà ty rakemba raik’ amo tañanjomba’ o anam-pitokio, nanao ty hoe: Nihomake i valiko, mpitoro’oy, le fohi’o te nañeveñe am’ Iehovà i mpi­­toro’oy; vaho nipok’ eo ty mpampisongo hangalake ty ana-dahiko roe hon­devo’e.
Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets to Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant feared the LORD: and the creditor hath come to take to him my two sons to be bond-men.
2 Le hoe t’i Elisà ama’e: Ino ty hanoeko ho azo? italilio, ino o hanaña’o añ’ anjomba’oo. Le hoe re: Tsy aman-draha añ’anjomba ao ty mpitoro’o ampela naho tsy vatavo menake raik’ avao.
And Elisha said to her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thy handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
3 Le hoe re: Akia, indramo vatavo amo mpitrao-tanañe ama’o iabio, vatavo kapaike; le ko mindrañe tsy ampeampe.
Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbors, [even] empty vessels; borrow not a few.
4 Mimoaha amy zay vaho agabeño ama’o naho amy ana-dahi’o rey i lalañey, le adoaño amo vatavo iabio, vaho aviho ty pea.
And when thou hast come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.
5 Aa le nieng’ aze re naho narindri’e ama’e naho amo ana’eo i lalañey, le nandesa’ iereo vatavo vaho nañiliña’e.
So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought [the vessels] to her; and she poured out.
6 Ie hene nipea o vatavoo, le hoe re amy ana’ey: endeso vatavo tovo’e. Fa hoe re ama’e: Tsy amam-batavo ka. Aa le nijihetse i menakey.
And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said to her, [There is] not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
7 Nimb’eo re nitalily amy ‘ndatin’Añaharey. Le hoe re: Akia, aletaho i menakey, le ondroho i songoy le miveloma amy sisay, ihe naho i ana-dahi’o rey.
Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children on the remainder.
8 Ie te indraik’ andro, naho ho niranga i Sonamý t’i Elisà, le teo ty rakemba mpañarivo; nanjitse aze hikama mofo. Ie amy zao, ndra mbia’ mbia niary mb’ eo re le nitsile mb’eo hikama mofo.
And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where [was] a distinguished woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And [so] it was, [that] as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
9 Le hoe re amy vali’ey: Inao, apotako te ondaty miavak’ aman’ Añahare i miary aman-tika nainai’ey.
And she said to her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this [is] a holy man of God, who passeth by us continually.
10 Ehe, antao handranjy efetse kedek’ an-tafo ey naho hasian-tika fandreañe naho latabatse naho seza vaho fitàn-jiro ty ao ho aze; aa ie miheo mb’ aman-tikañ’ atoy, le ao ty hiziliha’e.
Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.
11 Teo te indraik’ andro, niary eo re nimoak’ am-batsa ao le nandre.
And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.
12 Le hoe re amy Gekazý, mpitoro’ey, Kanjio i nte-Sonamiy. Aa le kinanji’e, vaho nijohañe añatrefa’e.
And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunamite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.
13 Le hoe re amy mpitoro’ey, Isaontsio ty hoe: Hehe, niatrak’ anay irehe amo fañasoañe iabio; aa le inoñe ty hanoeñe ho azo? ho saontsieñe amy mpanjakay hao, ndra amy mpifehe i valobohòkeiy? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Mimoneñe am’ondatikoo iraho.
And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what [is] to be done for thee? wouldst thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among my own people.
14 Le hoe re, Ino arè ty hanoeñe? le hoe t’i Gekazý: Toe tsy aman’ ana-dahy re, vaho fa bey ty vali’e.
And he said, What then [is] to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.
15 Le hoe re, Kanjio. Aa ie nikanjia’e, inge ie nijohañe an-dalam-bey eo.
And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.
16 Le hoe re: Ie mibalike ty taoñe ami’ty andro tinendre toy, le hiotroñe ana-dahy irehe. Le hoe re: Aiy! ry talèko, ry ondatin’ Añahareo, ko mandañitse amo anak’ampata’oo.
And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, No, my lord, [thou] man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid.
17 Fe niareñe i rakembay, nisamak’ ana-dahy amy sa zay, ie nibalike ty taoñe, ty amy saontsi’ i Elisà ama’ey.
And the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season that Elisha had said to her, according to the time of life.
18 Ie nibey i ajajay, le teo ty andro, t’ie nihitrike mb’aman-drae’e, mb’ amo mpanatakeo mb’eo.
And when the child was grown, it happened on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
19 Le hoe re aman-drae’e: Ty lohako, ty lohako. Le hoe re amy mpitoro’ey: Babeo mb’ aman-drene’e mb’eo.
And he said to his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.
20 Le nendese’e naho nasese’e aman-drene’e; ie nitobok’ añ’ongo’e eo am-para’ te tsipinde mena vaho nikenkañe.
And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and [then] died.
21 Niañambone mb’eo re vaho nahitsi’e am-pandrea’ indatin’ Añaharey le narin­dri’e i lalañey vaho niakatse.
And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut [the door] upon him, and went out.
22 Kinanji’e amy zao i vali’ey nanao ty hoe: Ehe, ahitrifo amako ty mpitoroñe, naho ty borìke, hihitrifako mb’ indatin’ Añaharey mb’eo vaho himpoly.
And she called to her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.
23 Le hoe re, Ino ty handenà’o añe te anito? tsy pea-bolañe, tsy Sabata. Le hoe re: Mbe ho soa.
And he said, Why wilt thou go to him to-day? [it is] neither new-moon, nor sabbath. And she said, [It shall be] well.
24 Aa le dinia’e i borìke’ey, le hoe re amy mpitoro’ey, Endeso, mionjona; le ko malaoñe ty amako naho tsy ivolañako.
Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not [thy] riding for me, except I bid thee.
25 Le nionjomb’ am’ indatin’ Añahare am-bohi’ Karmeley re. Aa ie nahatalake aze indatin’ Añaharey te eroy, le hoe re amy Gekazý, mpitoro’ey: Ingo, eroy i nte-Sonamiy.
So she went and came to the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, [yonder is] that Shunamite:
26 Ehe mihitrihitrifa hifanalaka ama’e le añontaneo ty hoe: Jangam-b’iheo? mbe soa hao i vali’oy? mbe soa hao i ana’oy? le hoe ty navale’e: Mbe soa.
Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say to her, [Is it] well with thee? [Is it] well with thy husband? [Is it] well with the child? and she answered, [It is] well.
27 Ie pok’ amy ‘ndatin’ Añahare an-kaboañey, le nifihine’e o fandia’eo. Nimb’eo t’i Gekazý hameve aze; fa hoe indatin’ Añaharey: Apoho, fa mafaitse ama’e ty fiai’e, naho naeta’ Iehovà amako; tsy nitaroña’e.
And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul [is] sorrowful within her: and the LORD hath hid [it] from me, and hath not told me?
28 Le hoe re: Nisalala ana-dahy hao iraho ry talèko? tsy nanoeko ty hoe hao: Ko mamañahy ahy?
Then she said, Did I ask a son from my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me.
29 Aa le hoe re amy Gekazý: Midiaña vania, rambeso am-pità’o i kobaikoy, le akia mb’eo; ie mifanalaka ama’ondaty, ko mañontane; ie añontaneane, ko manoiñe; le ampandreo an-tarehe’ i ajajay i kobaikoy.
Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way: and if thou shalt meet any man, salute him not; and if any shall salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.
30 Hoe ty rene’ i ajajay: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, naho veloñe ty fiai’o, tsy hieng’ azo iraho. Aa le niongake re nañorik’ aze.
And the mother of the child said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.
31 Niaolo iereo t’i Gekazý, le napo’e an-tarehe’ i ajajay i kobaiñey; fe po-feo naho fitsanoñañe. Nibalik’ amy zay re hifanalaka vaho natalili’e ty hoe: Mboe tsy nisotrake i ajajay.
And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but [there was] neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.
32 Ie nimoak’ añ’ anjomba ao t’i Elisà zoe’e te nivetrake i ajaja nandre am-pandrea’ey.
And when Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, [and] laid upon his bed.
33 Aa le nizilik’ ao re naho narin­dri’e am’ ie roe i lalañey, vaho nihalaly amy Iehovà.
He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them both, and prayed to the LORD.
34 Niongake re naho nandre amy ajajay, natoho’e am-bava’e ty falie’e; an-taña’e o fità’eo, amo maso’eo o fihaino’eo naho niatatse ama’e vaho nihamafana ty sandri’ i ajajay.
And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child became warm.
35 Nibalike re, nibelobelo amy trañoy ao, le nibalike, nihitsy ama’e indraike; nihatsihe im-pito i ajajay vaho nabolana’ i ajajay o maso’eo.
Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
36 Tinoka’e t’i Gekazý ami’ty hoe: Kanjio i nte-Sonamiy. Le tinoka’e. Aa ie nimoak’ ao, hoe re: Intoy o ana’oo.
And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunamite. So he called her. And when she had come in to him, he said, Take up thy son.
37 Nizilik’ ao re nibabok’ am-pandia’e eo, nidròdreke mb’an-tane naho rinam­be’e i ana-dahi’ey vaho niavotse.
Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.
38 Ie nibalike mb’e Gilgale mb’eo t’i Elisà; nisalikoeñe i taney; naho nitobok’ aolo’e o anam-pitokio, le hoe re amy mpitoro’ey, Apoho ama’e i valàñe jabajabay le anokono ahandro o anam-pitokio.
And Elisha came again to Gilgal. And [there was] a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets [were] sitting before him: and he said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.
39 Niakatse mb’an-tetek’ ey ty raike hitsongo añañe le naharendreke vahen’ ala naho tsinongo’e naho natsafe’e sarevazavozavo i siki’ey, vaho pinatepate’e am-balañe ao, fe tsy napota’e te inoñe.
And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered from it wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred [them] into the pot of pottage: for they knew [them] not.
40 Aa le naili’ iareo hikama’ ondatio. Ie nikama amy natokoñey iereo le nipazake ty hoe, O ondatin’ Añahareo, fikoromahañe ty am-balàñe ao. Le tsy nahafikama ama’e iereo.
So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O [thou] man of God, [there is] death in the pot. And they could not eat [of it].
41 Aa hoe re, Endeso atoy i lilañey, le nadoa’e am-balàñe ao izay, le hoe re: Amoaro ondatio hikama, le tsy nijoy ka ty am-balàñe ao.
But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast [it] into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
42 Pok’ eo ka t’indaty boake Baale-salisà, ninday mofo boak’ amo loha-voao mb’am’ indatin’ Añaharey, vonga-mofo hordea roapolo; naho tsako-le an-koro’e ao. Le hoe re anjotso ondatio hikama.
And there came a man from Baal-shalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in its husk. And he said, Give to the people, that they may eat.
43 Fa hoe i mpitoro’ey, Akore ty hanjo­tsoako toy am’ondaty zatoo? Fa hoe re: Anjotsò ondatio hikama, fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Toe hikama iereo vaho hanisa.
And his servitor said, What, should I set this before a hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave [of it].
44 Aa le nanjotsoa’e le nikama iereo vaho nanisa, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
So he set [it] before them, and they ate, and left [of it], according to the word of the LORD.
