2 Mpanjaka 7
1 Le hoe t’i Elisà, Mijanjiña ty tsara’ Iehovà, Hoe t’Iehovà, Ie manao hoe io te maray le haletake sekele raik’ an-dalambei’ i Somerone eo ty kapoan’ ampemba mona’e, vaho sekele raike ty vare hordea kapoake roe.
Then said Elisha', Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus hath said the Lord, About this time tomorrow a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
2 Tinoi’ ty mpifehe iatoam-pità’ i mpanjakay amy zao indatin’Añaharey ami’ty hoe: Inao! Ndra te nanoe’ Iehovà tsingarakarake ty andikerañe eñe, aia t’ie ho tendreke? Hoe re, Inay! ho isam-pihaino’o, fe tsy hikama’o.
Then answered the lord of the king, on whose hand he used to lean, the man of God, and said, Behold, will the Lord make windows in the heavens, that this thing shall be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but thereof shalt thou not eat.
3 Teo ty lahilahy angamae efatse am-pimoahan-dalambey eo; ie nifampivesoveso ty hoe, Ino ty hitobohan-tika etoa am-para’ te mate?
And there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate: and they said one to another, Why do we remain here until we die?
4 naho manao ty hoe tika: Antao hizilik’ an-drova: fe ho zoeñe ao i hasalikoañey vaho hivetrak’ ao; ie mboe mitoboke etoa, le hikenkañe ka. Antao arè, hihotrake am-balobohò’ o nte-Arameo; he apo’ iereo velon-tika le ho veloñe, ke ho vonoe’ iereo, le ho mate avao.
If we say, We will enter into the city, then is the famine in the city, and we shall die there; and if we remain here, we die [also]: now therefore come, and let us go over unto the camp of the Syrians; if they will let us live, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
5 Aa le niongake te nangoañe, nigodañe mb’an-tobe’ o nte-Arameo; aa ie pok’ añ’ olo’ i tobey, hehe t’ie tsy ama’ ondaty.
And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians; and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, there was no man there.
6 Amy te nampijanjiñe’ i Talè feon-tsarete o nte-Arameo, naho ty feon-tsoavala vaho ty fikoraham-balobohòke, le hoe ty nifanalilia’ iereo: Inao, kinarama’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley haname an-tika o mpanjaka’ o nte-Kiteoo, naho o mpanjaka’ o nte-Mitsraimeoo.
For the Lord had caused the camp of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, the noise of a large army: and they said one to the other, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
7 Aa le niongake iereo nitriban-day te mangararak’ atiñanañe, le nadoke o kiboho’eo naho o soavala’eo naho o borìke’eo, naho nado’ iareo i tobey hoe i teoy avao vaho niherereake mb’eo handrombak’ay.
And they were arisen and fled in the twilight, and had left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 Ie pok’ añ’olo’ i tobey i angamae rey, le nizilik’ ami’ty kibohotse ao nikama naho ninoñe, naho nakare’ iereo ty volafoty naho ty volamena naho sikiñe, le nenteñe mb’eo vaho naetake; nimoaha’ iareo ty kibohotse raike ka le nangalak’ ao naho nente’ iereo vaho naetake.
And so came these lepers to the uttermost part of the camp, and they went into one tent, and ate and drank, and carried away thence silver, and gold, and garments, and went and hid them; and they returned, and entered into another tent, and carried away [something] thence, and went and hid it.
9 Le hoe ty fifanaontsia’ iareo, Tsy soa o anoen-tikañeo; toe andro fitalilian-tsoa androany, itika mitsiñe avao; aa naho liñisan-tika te manjirike i àndroy le hiambotraham-pandilovañe; antao arè homb’eo hitalily amo añ’anjomba’ i mpanjakaio.
And then they said one to the other, We do not act correctly; this day is a day of good tidings; and if we remain silent, and tarry till the morning-light, we shall incur guilt: now then come, and let us go and tell it at the king's house.
10 Aa le nimb’eo iereo nitoka o mpitan-dalambeio, nitalily ty hoe; Nimb’ an-toben-te Arame añe zahay, le hehe te leo ondaty tsy ao, po-piarañanaña’ ondaty, fe soavala mirohy naho borìke mirohy, vaho napoke ey avao o kibohotseo.
So they went and called unto one of the gate-keepers of the city, and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, nor the voice of man; but the horses were tied, and the asses were tied, and the tents as they had been.
11 Aa le nikoike o mpitan-dalañeo, nitalily añ’ anjomba’ i Mpanjakay.
And he called the gate-keepers; and they told it at the king's house within.
12 Le nitroatse amy haleñey i mpanjakay nanao ty hoe amo mpitoro’eo, Hatoroko anahareo ty nanoa’ o nte-Arameo aman-tika. Fohi’ iareo t’ie kerè; aa le niakara’ iereo i tobey hietak’ an-kivok’ ao, nikilily ty hoe: Ie miakatse i rovay iereo, le ho tsepahen-tika veloñe vaho himoak’ amy rovay.
And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I can easily tell you what the Syrians have done to us: they know that we are hungry; and they are therefore gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, If they should come out of the city, we will catch them alive, and enter into the city.
13 Aa hoe ty natoi’ ty mpitoro’e raike: Ehe, angao hendeseñe i soavala lime honka’e an-drova atoa rey—ndra t’ie manahake ty valobohò’ Israele sisa ama’e ao; ie ho hambañe amy valobohò’ Israele fa nagodrañey—antao hañirake naho handrendreke.
And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, let it fare with them as with all the multitude of Israel that are left in it, [or] let it fare with them as with all the multitude of Israel that have perished: and let us send out and see.
14 Rinambe’ iereo ty sarete roe reketse soavala; vaho nampihitrife’ i mpanjakay hañorike i valobohò’ o nte-Arameoy iereo ami’ty hoe: Akia mandrendreha.
And they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the camp of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15 Aa le norihe’ iereo pak’ am’ Iordaney añe; le hehe te tsitsike sikiñe naho haraotse i lalañey, ze naria’ o nte-Arameo amy falisa’ iareoy. Aa le nimpoly o niraheñeo nitalily amy mpanjakay.
And they went after them as far as the Jordan; and, lo, the whole way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste: and the messengers returned, and told it to the king.
16 Niavotse mb’eo ondatio, nikopake ty tobe’ o nte-Arameo. Aa le naletake sekele raike ty kapoak’ ampemba mona’e, naho sekele raike ty kapoake vare-hordea roe, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
And the people went out, and plundered the camp of the Syrians: and a seah of fine flour was to be had for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord.
17 Tinendre’ i mpanjakay hañambeñe ty lalambey i mpifehe iatoam-pità’ey; f’ie linialia’ ondatio an-dalambey eo, le nivetrake hambañe amy nitokia’ indatin’ Añahareiy, amy saontsi’e amy fizotsoa’ i mpanjakay mb’ ama’e mb’eoy.
And the king had appointed the lord on whose hand he used to lean to have the charge of the gate; and the people trod him down in the gate, and he died; as the man of God had spoken, which he spoke when the king came down to him.
18 Aa le nitendreke, hambañe amy sinaontsi’ indatin’Añaharey amy mpanjakaiy ty hoe: Vare-hordea kapoake roe, sekele raike, le ty kapoake bon’ ampemba: sekele raike, ty ho zoeñe an-dalambei’ i Somerone te hamaray manahake henanekeo.
And it came to pass as the man of God was speaking to the king, saying, Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be about this time tomorrow in the gate of Samaria:
19 Tinoi’ i mpifehey ty hoe indatin’ Añaharey: Eo hey; ndra te nanoe’ Iehovà tsingaragarake ty andikerañe eñe, tsy ho nitendreke o raha zao. Le hoe ty navale’e: Inao! ho isam-pihano’o, fe tsy hikama’o.
That the Lord had answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if even the Lord were to make windows in the heavens, would such a thing be? And he had said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but thereof shalt thou not eat.
20 Aa le izay ty nifetsak’ ama’e kanao linialia’ ondatio an-dalambey eo, vaho nihomake.
And it happened unto him so; for the people trod him down in the gate, and he died.
