2 Amakhosi 5
1 Njalo uNamani induna yebutho lenkosi yeSiriya wayengumuntu omkhulu phambi kwenkosi yakhe, lohloniphekayo, ngoba ngaye uJehova wayenikile iSiriya ukukhululwa. Njalo lindoda yayiliqhawe elilamandla, kodwayayingumlephero.
Pea ko Neamani, ko e ʻeiki pule ki ke kautau ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Silia, ko e tangata ia naʻe ʻeiki mo ongoongolelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ʻiate ia, naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui ki Silia: ko e tangata foki ia naʻe mālohi ʻaupito ʻi he tau, ka ko e kilia.
2 Njalo amaSiriya ayephumile ngamaviyo athumba intombazana elizweni lakoIsrayeli, eyayisima phambi komkaNamani.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu atu ʻae ngaahi kongakau ʻoe kakai Silia, naʻa nau ʻomi pōpula ha taʻahine siʻi mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ki he uaifi ʻo Neamani.
3 Yasisithi enkosikazini yayo: Sengathi inkosi yami ingaba phambi komprofethi oseSamariya; khona ubezayiphilisa kubulephero bayo.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene fineʻeiki, “Taumaiā kuo nofo ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki mo e palōfita ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Samēlia! he te ne fakamoʻui ia mei heʻene kilia.”
4 Wasengena watshela inkosi yakhe esithi: Intombazana evela elizweni lakoIsrayeli itsho ukuthi lokuthi.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ange ʻae tokotaha, mo ne tala ki heʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mo pehē ʻe he taʻahine ʻaia ʻoku mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
5 Inkosi yeSiriya yasisithi: Suka, uhambe, ngizathumela incwadi enkosini yakoIsrayeli. Wasehamba wathatha esandleni sakhe amathalenta esiliva alitshumi lenhlamvu zegolide ezizinkulungwane eziyisithupha lezigqoko zokuntshintsha ezilitshumi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Silia, “ʻOku lelei, ʻalu, pea te u ʻatu ha tohi ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu, pea ne ʻave mo ia ʻae taleniti siliva ʻe hongofulu, mo e konga koula ʻe ono afe, mo e kofu kātoa ʻe hongofulu.
6 Waseletha incwadi enkosini yakoIsrayeli isithi: Khathesi-ke, lapho le incwadi isifikile kuwe, khangela, ngithume kuwe uNamani inceku yami ukuze umphilise kubulephero bakhe.
Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae tohi ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko eni ʻoka hoko atu ʻae tohi ni kiate koe, vakai, kuo u fekau atu mo ia kiate koe ʻa Neamani ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke ke fakamoʻui ia mei heʻene kilia.”
7 Kwasekusithi inkosi yakoIsrayeli isiyibalile leyoncwadi yadabula izigqoko zayo yathi: NginguNkulunkulu yini ukuthi ngibulale loba ngiphilise, ukuthi lo athumele kimi ukuthi ngiphilise umuntu kubulephero bakhe? Ngakho-ke, ake linanzelele libone ukuthi udinga ithuba lokumelana lami.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē hili ʻa ʻene lau ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae tohi, naʻa ne haehae ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, mo ne pehē, “He ko e ʻOtua au, ke tāmate mo fakamoʻui, kuo fekau ai ʻe he tangata ni ke u fakamoʻui ha tangata mei heʻene kilia? Ko ia mou vakai, pea mou tokanga ki heʻene kumi ha meʻa ke fakatupu ai ʻae kovi kiate au.”
8 Kwasekusithi lapho uElisha umuntu kaNkulunkulu esizwa ukuthi inkosi yakoIsrayeli idabule izigqoko zayo, wathumela enkosini esithi: Udabuleleni izigqoko zakho? Akeze kimi ukuze azi ukuthi kukhona umprofethi koIsrayeli.
Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe ʻIlaisa ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he haehae ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, naʻa ne fekau ai ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke haehae ai ho ngaahi kofu? Tuku ke ne haʻu kiate au, pea te ne ʻilo ʻoku ai ha palōfita ʻi ʻIsileli.”
9 Ngakho uNamani weza lamabhiza akhe lenqola yakhe, wema emnyango wendlu kaElisha.
Ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Neamani mo ʻene fanga hoosi pea mo ʻene saliote, pea tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIlaisa.
10 UElisha wasethuma isithunywa kuye esithi: Hamba uyegeza kasikhombisa eJordani, inyama yakho izabuyela kuwe, uhlambuluke.
Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe ʻIlaisa ha tangata fekau kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu ʻo kaukau ʻi Sioatani ke liunga fitu, pea ʻe toe hoko mai ho kakano kiate koe, pea te ke maʻa ai.”
11 Kodwa uNamani wathukuthela, wahamba, wathi: Khangela, bengisithi uzaphuma sibili eze kimi, eme, abize ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe, ahambahambise isandla sakhe phezu kwendawo, aphilise umlephero.
Ka naʻe ʻita lahi ʻa Neamani, pea ʻalu ia, mo ne pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku pehē ʻeau, te ne ʻomi moʻoni kituʻa kiate au, pea tuʻu, ʻo ne ui ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, mo ne ala ʻaki ʻa hono nima ki he potu, mo ne fakamoʻui ai ʻae kilia.
12 IAbana leFaripari imifula yeDamaseko kayingcono yini kulawo wonke amanzi akoIsrayeli? Bengingegeze kiyo ngihlambuluke yini? Wasetshibilika wahamba ngolaka oluvuthayo.
ʻIkai ʻoku lelei hake ʻa ʻApana mo Paapaa ko e vaitafe ʻi Tamasikusi, ʻi he ngaahi vai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli? ʻIkai te u faʻa kaukau ʻi ai, pea u maʻa ai? Ko ia, naʻa ne foki atu ʻo ʻalu ʻi he ʻita lahi.”
13 Kodwa inceku zakhe zasondela zakhuluma laye zathi: Baba, aluba umprofethi ubekhulume lawe ulutho olukhulu, ubungayikulwenza yini? Pho, kakhulu kangakanani uba ethe kuwe: Geza uhlambuluke?
Pea naʻe fakaofi atu ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, mo nau lea kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEku tamai, ka ne tala ʻe he palōfita ke ke fai ha meʻa lahi, ʻikai kuo ke fai ia? Kae muʻa hake eni, ʻa ʻene pehē mai kiate koe, ‘Kaukau, pea te ke maʻa ai?’”
14 Wasesehla, wazigxamuza eJordani kasikhombisa njengokwelizwi lomuntu kaNkulunkulu, lenyama yakhe yabuyela yafanana lenyama yomntwana omncinyane, wahlambuluka-ke.
Pea naʻa ne toki ʻalu hifo, mo ne kaukau ia ʻo liunga fitu ʻi Sioatani, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua: pea naʻe toe hoko mai kiate ia ʻa hono kakano, ʻo hangē ko e kakano ʻo ha tamasiʻi siʻi, pea naʻa ne maʻa ai.
15 Wasebuyela kumuntu kaNkulunkulu, yena lalo lonke ixuku lakhe, wafika wema phambi kwakhe, wathi: Khangela sengisazi ukuthi kakulaNkulunkulu emhlabeni wonke, ngaphandle kwakoIsrayeli; khathesi-ke ake wemukele isipho encekwini yakho.
Pea naʻa ne toe ʻalu ange ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia mo ʻene kau fononga kotoa pē, pea haʻu, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻa ne pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku ou toki ʻilo eni ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻOtua ʻi māmani kotoa pē, ka ʻi ʻIsileli pe: pea ko ia ʻoku ou kole, ke ke maʻu ha meʻaʻofa mei hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”
16 Kodwa wathi: Kuphila kukaJehova engimi phambi kwakhe, kangiyikuthatha lutho. Wasemncenga ukuthi athathe, kodwa wala.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ou tuʻu ni ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻe ʻikai te u maʻu ha meʻa. Pea naʻa ne kole fakamātoato ke ne maʻu ia; ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ki ai.”
17 UNamani wasesithi: Uba kungenjalo, akunikwe inceku yakho umthwalo wembongolo ezimbili wenhlabathi. Ngoba inceku yakho kayisayikwenza umnikelo wokutshiswa lomhlatshelo kwabanye onkulunkulu, kodwa eNkosini.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Neamani, “Pea ka kuo pehē, ʻoku ou kole ai ke ʻomi ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha kavenga ʻe ua ʻoe kelekele ke fakaheka ki ha miuli ʻe ua? Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai siʻi toe ʻatu ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha feilaulau tutu, pe ha feilaulau ki ha ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ka kia Sihova pe.”
18 Kulinto iNkosi kayithethelele inceku yakho: Nxa inkosi yami ingena endlini kaRimoni ukukhonza lapho, yeyame esandleni sami, lami ngikhonze endlini kaRimoni, lapho ngikhonza endlini kaRimoni, iNkosi ake ithethelele inceku yakho kulinto.
“Ke fakamolemole ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he meʻa ko eni, ʻoka hū atu ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ki he fale ʻo Limoni ke lotu ai, pea ʻoku ne faʻaki ki hoku nima, pea ʻoku ou punou hifo ʻi he fale ʻo Limoni: ʻo kau ka punou hifo au ʻi he fale ʻo Limoni, ke fakamolemole ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he meʻa ni.”
19 Wasesithi kuye: Hamba ngokuthula. Wasesuka kuye ummango omfitshane.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻi he fiemālie.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻo mamaʻo siʻi mei he potu ko ia.
20 Kodwa uGehazi inceku kaElisha umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: Khangela, inkosi yami imyekele uNamani umSiriya lo ngokungemukeli esandleni sakhe lokho akulethileyo. Kuphila kukaJehova, ngizagijima ngimlandele, ngithathe kuye okuthile.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Kehesi ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻIlaisa ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Vakai, kuo mamae ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ki he tangata Silia ni ko Neamani, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene taʻemaʻu mei hono nima ʻae meʻa naʻa ne ʻomi: kae hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, te u lele atu kiate ia, ʻo maʻu ha meʻa meiate ia.”
21 UGehazi wasegijima wamlandela uNamani. Kwathi uNamani ebona ogijimayo emva kwakhe, wehla enqoleni ukuze amhlangabeze, wathi: Kulungile yini?
Ko ia naʻe muimui atu ʻa Kehesi kia Neamani. Pea ʻi he sio ʻa Neamani ki heʻene lele mai kiate ia, naʻa ne ʻalu hifo mei heʻene saliote ke fetaulaki kiate ia mo ne pehē, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē?”
22 Wasesithi: Kulungile. Inkosi yami ingithumile, isithi: Khangela, ngitsho khathesi kufikile kimi amajaha amabili evela entabeni yakoEfrayimi awamadodana abaprofethi; ake uwanike ithalenta lesiliva lezigqoko ezimbili zokuntshintsha.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē. Kuo fekau au ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki, ke fakahā, Vakai, kuo haʻu eni kiate au mei he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi ʻae ongo talavou mei he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita: pea ʻoku ou kole ke ke foaki kiate kinaua, ha taleniti siliva ʻe taha, mo e ngaahi kofu kātoa ʻe ua.”
23 UNamani wasesithi: Vuma, uthathe amathalenta amabili. Wasemcindezela, wabophela amathalenta amabili emigodleni emibili, lezembatho zokuntshintsha ezimbili, wakunika ababili benceku zakhe, bakuthwala phambi kwakhe.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Neamani, “Ke ke fiemālie pe, ʻave ʻae taleniti ʻe ua.” Pea naʻa ne ueʻi mālohi ia, pea naʻa ne noʻotaki ʻae taleniti siliva ʻe ua ki he kato ʻe ua, mo e ngaahi kofu kātoa ʻe ua, pea naʻa ne ʻai ia ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko ua; pea naʻa na fua atu ia ʻi hono ʻao.
24 Esefike oqaqeni, wakuthatha esandleni sazo, wakubeka endlini; waseyekela amadoda ahamba, asesuka.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko atu ki he fale leʻo, naʻa ne toʻo ia mei hona nima, mo ne ʻai atu ia ki fale: pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻae ongo tangata ke ʻalu, pea naʻa na ʻalu.
25 Yena wasengena wema phambi kwenkosi yakhe; uElisha wasesithi kuye: Uvela ngaphi, Gehazi? Wasesithi: Inceku yakho ibingayanga le lale.
Ka naʻe hū atu ia [ki fale], mo ne tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene ʻeiki. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa kiate ia, “Kuo ke haʻu mei fē Kehesi?” Pea naʻa ne pehē ʻe ia, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki ha potu.
26 Wasesithi kuye: Inhliziyo yami ayihambanga yini lapho lowomuntu etshibilika enqoleni yakhe ukukuhlangabeza? Kuyisikhathi sokwemukela imali yini, lokwemukela izigqoko, lezivande zemihlwathi, lezivini, lezimvu, lezinkabi, lezinceku, lezincekukazi?
Pea naʻa ne pehēange kiate ia, “ʻIkai naʻe ʻalu ʻa hoku loto mo koe, ʻi heʻene tafoki mai ʻae tangata mei hono saliote ke fakafetaulaki kiate koe? He ko e kuonga eni ke maʻu kofu, mo e ngoue ʻolive, mo e ngoue vaine, mo e fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e kau kaunanga?
27 Ngakho ubulephero bukaNamani buzanamathela kuwe lenzalweni yakho kuze kube nininini. Wasephuma ebukhoneni bakhe engumlephero emhlophe njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyo.
Ko ia foki, ʻe piki kiate koe ʻae kilia naʻe ʻia Neamani, pea ki ho hako ʻo taʻengata.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu mei hono ʻao ko e kilia ʻo tatau mo e ʻuha hinehina.
