2 Mpanjaka 8
1 Ie amy zao nisaontsy ty hoe amy rakemba amañ-anadahy nampisotrafe’e t’i Elisà: Miavota, le mañaveloa rekets’ o añ’anjomba’oo le mitaveaña amy ze mete itaveaña’o, fa nikaike san-kerè t’Iehovà; vaho hivotrak’ an-tane atoy fito taoñe izay.
Elisha told the woman whose son he had brought back to life, “You and your family need to pack up and leave, and live where you can somewhere else like a foreigner. For the Lord announced a famine will come to the land and will last seven years.”
2 Aa le niongake i rakembay ty amy saontsi’ indatin’ Añahareiy vaho nienga rekets’ o añanjomba’eo nitaveañe fito taoñe an-tane’ o nte-Pelistio.
The woman packed up and did what the man of God had told her. She and her family went and lived as foreigners for seven years in the country of the Philistines.
3 Ie nimodo i fito taoñey le nimpoly boak’ an-tane’ o nte-Pelistio i rakembay; naho nimb’eo hitoreo i anjomba naho tane’ey amy mpanjakay.
When the seven years were over, she came back from the country of the Philistines and went to the king to appeal for the return of her house and lands.
4 Ie amy zao, nisaontsy amy Gekazý mpitoro’ indatin’ Añaharey i mpanjakay, ami’ty hoe: Ehe, atalilio amako, ze he’e ra’elahy nanoe’ i Elisà.
The king was talking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, asking him, “Please tell me about all the wonderful things Elisha did.”
5 Natalili’e amy mpanjakay amy zao ty nampihereña’e ho veloñe i nivetrakey, vaho ingo i rakemba nampisotrafeñe i ana-dahi’eiy, hitoreo i anjomba’e naho i tane’ey amy mpanjakay. Le hoe t’i Gekazý: O ry talèko mpanjaka, intoy i rakembay, ingo i ana-dahi’e nampihereñe’ i Elisà ho veloñey.
It so happened that right then Gehazi was telling the king the story of how Elisha had brought the dead boy back to life when his mother arrived to make her appeal to the king for the return of her house and lands. “My lord the king,” Gehazi called out, “this is the woman, and this is her son that Elisha brought back to life.”
6 Aa ie nañontane i rakembay i mpanjakay, le nitalilia’e. Aa le tinendre’ i mpanjakay ty mpifehe, ami’ty hoe: Hene ampolio ama’e o niazeo, naho ty voka’ i tete’ey sikal’ amy andro nienga’e i taney am-para henane.
The king asked the woman about it and she explained the whole story to him. The king gave orders to an official, saying, “Make sure everything that belonged to her is returned to her, together with all the profit from her lands from the day that she left the country until now.”
7 Nivotrake e Damesèke t’i Elisà, ie nisiloke t’i Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Arame, le natalily ama’e ty hoe: Fa pok’ eo indatin’Añaharey.
Elisha went to Damascus when Ben-hadad king of Aram was ill. The king was informed, “The man of God has arrived in town.”
8 Le hoe i mpanjakay amy Kazaele; endeso ravoravo am-pità’o le akia mifañaoña amy ‘ndatin’Añaharey, vaho ampañontaneo aze t’Iehovà, ty hoe: Hibodañe ami’ ty areteko toy hao iraho?
The king ordered Hazael, “Take a gift with you and go and meet the man of God. Ask him to ask the Lord, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
9 Aa le nimb’eo t’i Kazaele hifañaoña’e reketse ravoravo am-pita’e naho ze hene raha soa’ i Damesèke, kilankan-drameva efapolo, vaho nimb’eo re nijohañe añatrefa’e, nanao ty hoe: Nañirak’ ahy i ana’o Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Aramey hanao ty hoe: Ho jangañe hao iraho amo aretekoo?
So Hazael went to meet Elisha. He took with him a gift of all the best things from Damascus—forty camel-loads of goods. He came in and stood before him and said, “Your son Ben-hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
10 Le hoe t’i Elisà tama’e, Akia, isaontsio: Toe hibodan-drehe; fe nitoroa’ Iehovà t’ie toe hihomake.
“Go and tell him, ‘You will definitely recover.’ But the Lord has shown me that definitely he is going to die,” Elisha replied.
11 Le nampifahara’e fiatreke aze ty lahara’e am-para’ t’ie nisalatse; vaho nirovetse indatin’ Añaharey.
Elisha stared at him for a long time until Hazael became uncomfortable. Then the man of God started to cry.
12 Le hoe t’i Kazaele: Ino o iroveta’oo ry talèko? le hoe ty natoi’e: Amy te apotako ty hankàñe hanoe’o amo ana’ Israeleo; ho forototoe’o o rova’ iareoo, ho lafae’o am-pibara o ajalahi’eo, hadasi’o ho demoke o keleia’eo vaho ho riate’o o rakemba mivesatseo.
“Why are you crying, my lord?” asked Hazael. “Because I know the evil things you are going to do to the Israelites,” Elisha replied. “You will set their fortresses on fire, kill their young men with the sword, dash to pieces their little ones, and rip open their pregnant women.”
13 Fa hoe t’i Kazaele: Ino ty mpitoro’o? amboa hao t’ie hanao o halosorañe zao? le hoe t’i Elisà: Fa natoro’ Iehovà amako te ihe ty ho mpanjaka’ i Arame.
“But how could someone like me who's just a ‘dog’ achieve anything like that?” Hazael asked. “The Lord has shown me that you are going to be the king of Aram,” Elisha replied.
14 Aa le nienga i Elisà re, niheo amy talè’ey mb’eo vaho hoe re ama’e: Ino ty asa’ i Elisà tama’o? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Tinaro’e amako t’ie toe hibodañe.
Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha tell you?” Hazael replied, “He told me you would definitely recover.”
15 Ie te loak’ andro, nandrambe lamba mateveñe, le nalo’e an-drano ao, naho nalama’e an-tarehe’e nametrek’ aze vaho nifehe nandimbe aze t’i Kazaele.
But the following day Hazael took the bed cover, soaked it in water, and spread it over the king's face until he died. Then Hazael took over from him as king.
16 Ie tan-taom-paha-lime’ Iorame ana’ i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israele, le niorotse nifehe t’Iehorame ana’ Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehodà.
Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, began his reign as king of Judah in the fifth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, while Jehoshaphat was still king of Judah.
17 Ie niajalahy telopolo taoñe roe amby te niorotse nifehe; le nifehe valo taoñe e Ierosalaime ao.
He was thirty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years.
18 Nañavelo an-tsata’ o mpanjaka’ Israeleo re, manahake ty nanoe’ i anjomba’ i Akabey; amy te nitañanjomba’e ty anak’ ampela’ i Akabe vaho nanao haloloañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà.
Jehoram followed the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he married a daughter of Ahab and did what was evil in the Lord's sight.
19 Fe tsy narotsa’ Iehovà t’Iehodà, ty amy mpitoro’e Davidey, fa nafè’e ama’e te hitoroa’e failo hirehetse nainai’e amo tarira’eo.
But for the sake of David his servant the Lord didn't want to destroy Judah since he had promised him that there would always be a ruler from his descendants, like a lamp forever.
20 Niola ambanem-pità’ Iehodà tañ’ andro’e t’i Edome vaho nañorem-panjaka hifehe iareo.
During Jehoram's time as king, Edom rebelled against Judah's rule and chose their own king.
21 Aa le nitsake mb’e Tsaire mb’eo t’Iorame rekets’ o sarete’e iabio; le nitroatse haleñe naho zinevo’e o nte-Edome niarikoboñe azeo naho o mpifehe sareteo vaho nitriban-day mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo ondatio.
So Jehoram went over to Zair with all his chariots. The Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but he took action and attacked at night. But his army ran back to their homes.
22 Fe mbe niola ambanem-pità’ Iehoda pak’ androany t’i Edome. Niola ka t’i Libnà henane zay.
As a result Edom has been in rebellion against Judah's rule to this day. At the same time Libnah also decided to rebel.
23 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iorameo naho o raha nanoe’e iabio; tsy fa sinokitse am-bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodao hao?
The rest of what happened in Jehoram's reign and all that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
24 Nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’Iorame, le nalentek’ aman-droae’e an-drova’ i Davide ao; vaho nandimbe aze ho mpifehe t’i Ahkazià ana’e.
Jehoram died and was buried with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
25 Tamy taom-paha-folo-ro’ ambi’ Iorame ana’ i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israeley le niorotse nifehe t’i Ahkazià ana’ Iehorame mpanjaka’ Iehodà.
Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, became king of Judah in the twelfth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel.
26 Roapolo-ro’amby taoñe t’i Ahkazià te namototse nifehe; le nifehe rai-taoñe e Ierosalaime ao; Atalià, anak’ ampela’ i Omrý mpanjaka’ Israele, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Ahaziah was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri, king of Israel.
27 Nañavelo an-tsatan’ anjomba’ i Akabe re, nanao haloloañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà, manahake ty nanoe’ i anjomba’ i Akabey, amy t’ie vinanton’ anjomba’ i Akabe.
Ahaziah also followed the evil ways of the family of Ahab, and did what was evil in the Lord's sight as the family of Ahab had done, for he was related to them by marriage.
28 Ie nindre am’ Iorame ana’ i Akabe hialy amy Kazaele mpanjaka’ i Arame e Ramote-gilade añe; le nahafere Iorame o nte-Arameo.
Ahaziah went with Joram, son of Ahab, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram,
29 Nimpoly mb’e Iezreele ao t’Iorame mpanjaka, himelaña’e amo fere natolo’ o nte-Arameo aze e Ramà añeo, ie nialy amy Kazaele mpanjaka’ i Arame. Le nizotso mb’eo hitilike Iehorame ana’ i Akabe e Iezreele ao amy hasilo’ey t’i Ahkazià ana’ Iehorame mpanjaka’ Iehodà.
and he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received in Ramah fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went to Jezreel to visit Joram, son of Ahab, because Joram was wounded.
