Da bi, adiyifo kuw baa Elisa nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛnea wo ara wuhu no, baabi a yɛne wo hyia ha yi sua.
2 Akusiyekele sihambe siye eJordani, sithathe khona, ngulowo lalowo isigodo esisodwa, sizenzele khona indawo yokuhlala kiyo. Wasesithi: Hambani.
Ma yɛnkɔ Asubɔnten Yordan ho a nnua bebree wɔ hɔ. Ɛhɔ de, yebetumi asi ɔdan foforo, ahyia mu wɔ hɔ.” Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Eye, monkɔyɛ.”
3 Omunye wasesithi: Akuvume, uhambe lenceku zakho. Wasesithi: Mina ngizahamba.
Obi kaa nʼadwene se, “Mesrɛ wo, bɛka yɛn ho na yɛnkɔ.” Ɔkae se, “Mate yɛbɛkɔ.”
4 Wasehamba labo; sebefikile eJordani bagamula izihlahla.
Bere a woduu Yordan ho no, wofii ase buu nnua.
5 Kodwa omunye esagamula ugodo, insimbi yawela emanzini. Wasememeza esithi: Maye, nkosi yami! Ngoba belebolekiwe.
Nanso wɔn mu baako rebu dua no, nʼabonnua hɔn tɔɔ asu no mu. Ɔteɛɛ mu se, “O me wura! Ɛyɛ abonnua a mekɔsrɛe!”
6 Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasesithi: Iwele ngaphi? Wasemtshengisa indawo. Wasegamula uswazi, waluphosela khona, wenza insimbi yandenda.
Onyankopɔn nipa no bisae se, “Ɛhefa na ɛtɔe?” Ɔkyerɛɛ Elisa baabi ko no, Elisa twaa pema, na ɔtow kyenee asu no mu. Ɛhɔ ara abonnua ti no pagyaw ne ho, bɛtɛn asu no ani.
7 Wasesithi: Zenyulele yona. Waseselula isandla sakhe, wayithatha.
Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma so yi.” Na ɔbarima no teɛɛ ne nsa yii.
8 Kwathi inkosi yeSiriya isilwa loIsrayeli yacebisana lenceku zayo isithi: Ekuthanathaneni izakuba yinkamba yami.
Bere a Aramhene ne Israel redi ako no, ɔne ne mpanyimfo tuu agyina, kae se, “Yɛbɛboaboa yɛn asraafo ano wɔ ha anaa ɛha.”
9 Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasethumela enkosini yakoIsrayeli esithi: Qaphela ungedluli kulindawo, ngoba amaSiriya ehlele khona.
Ntɛm pa ara, Onyankopɔn nipa Elisa bɔɔ Israelhene kɔkɔ se, “Ntwiw mmɛn beae hɔ, efisɛ Aramfo no reyɛ nhyehyɛe, aboaboa wɔn asraafo ano wɔ hɔ.”
10 Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasithumela kuleyondawo umuntu kaNkulunkulu ayitshela yona wayixwayisa ngayo. Yasizilondoloza khona, kungekanye, njalo kungekabili.
Enti Israelhene hwɛɛ beae a Onyame nipa no kyerɛe no no. Elisa kɔɔ so bɔɔ ɔhene no kɔkɔ mpɛn pii, na ɛmaa nʼani daa fam wɔ mmeae a ɛtete saa no ho.
11 Inhliziyo yenkosi yeSiriya yasikhathazeka kakhulu ngenxa yalinto. Yasibiza inceku zayo yathi kuzo: Kaliyikungitshela yini ukuthi ngubani kithi ongowenkosi yakoIsrayeli?
Aramhene werɛ how wɔ asɛm yi ho. Ɔfrɛɛ ne mpanyimfo bisaa wɔn se, “Mo mu hena na ɔyɛ ɔfatwafo no? Hena na ɔka me nhyehyɛe a mayɛ kyerɛ Israelhene?”
12 Omunye wenceku zakhe wasesithi: Hatshi, nkosi yami, nkosi; kodwa uElisha umprofethi okoIsrayeli uyayitshela inkosi yakoIsrayeli amazwi owakhuluma phakathi kwekamelo lakho lokulala.
Mpanyimfo no mu baako buae se, “Me wura, ɛnyɛ yɛn. Elisa a ɔyɛ odiyifo wɔ Israel no na ɔka wo kokoamsɛm kyerɛ Israelhene.”
13 Yasisithi: Hambani liyebona lapho akhona, ukuze ngithume ngimthathe. Wasetshelwa kwathiwa: Khangela, useDothani.
Ɔhene no hyɛe se, “Monkɔhwehwɛ baabi a Elisa wɔ, na yɛbɛsoma asraafo ama wɔakɔkyere no.” Na nkra bae se, “Elisa wɔ Dotan.”
14 Yasithuma khona amabhiza lezinqola lebutho elinzima; basebefika ebusuku, bawuzingelezela umuzi.
Enti anadwo bi, Aramhene somaa asraafo bebree ne wɔn nteaseɛnam ne wɔn apɔnkɔ kotwaa dantaban faa kuropɔn no ho.
15 Kwathi inceku yomuntu kaNkulunkulu isivukile ngovivi yaphuma, khangela-ke, ibutho lizingelezele umuzi kanye lamabhiza lezinqola. Inceku yakhe yasisithi kuye: Maye, nkosi yami! Sizakwenza njani?
Bere a Onyankopɔn nipa no somfo sɔree ahemadakye, sii afikyiri no, na asraafo, apɔnkɔ ne nteaseɛnam atwa hɔ ahyia. Ɔteɛɛ mu kyerɛɛ Elisa se, “O, me wura! Dɛn na yɛnyɛ?”
16 Wasesithi: Ungesabi, ngoba labo abalathi banengi okwedlula labo abalabo.
Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nsuro na yɛwɔ dɔm sen wɔn.”
17 UElisha wasekhuleka wathi: Nkosi, akuvule amehlo ayo ukuze ibone. INkosi yasiwavula amehlo alelojaha, laselibona, khangela-ke, intaba igcwele amabhiza lenqola zomlilo zihanqe uElisha.
Afei, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, bue nʼani na ma onhu ade,” Awurade buee ne somfo ani, na ɔmaa nʼani so no, ohuu sɛ Elisa nkyɛn mu a ɛkyerɛ bepɔw no, ogya apɔnkɔ ne nteaseɛnam na ayɛ hɔ ma.
18 Sebehlele kuye, uElisha wakhuleka eNkosini wathi: Akutshaye lababantu ngobuphofu. Yasibatshaya ngobuphofu njengokwelizwi likaElisha.
Bere a Aramfo asraafo bɔ puaa wɔn no, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, mesrɛ wo, ma wɔn ani mfurafura.” Na Awurade yɛɛ nea Elisa bisae no.
19 UElisha wasesithi kibo: Kayisiyo le indlela, futhi kayisiwo lo umuzi; ngilandelani, ngizalisa kulowomuntu elimdingayo. Kodwa wabasa eSamariya.
Na Elisa fii adi, kɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Moafa ɔkwan bɔne so aba. Ɛnyɛ kurow a morehwehwɛ no ni. Munni mʼakyi, na mede mo bɛkɔ onipa a morehwehwɛ no no nkyɛn.” Na odii wɔn anim koduu Samaria.
20 Kwasekusithi sebengene eSamariya, uElisha wathi: Nkosi, vula amehlo alaba ukuze babone. INkosi yasivula amehlo abo, basebebona; khangela-ke, babephakathi kweSamariya.
Na woduu Samaria pɛ, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, afei bue wɔn ani, na ma wonhu ade.” Na Awurade yɛe, na wohuu sɛ wɔwɔ Samaria.
21 Inkosi yakoIsrayeli yasisithi kuElisha ibabona: Baba, ngibatshaye, ngibatshaye yini?
Bere a Israelhene huu wɔn no, ɔteɛɛ mu, bisaa Elisa se, “Mʼagya, minkunkum wɔn ana?”
22 Wasesithi: Ungatshayi. Ungatshaya yini labo obathumbe ngenkemba yakho langedandili lakho? Beka isinkwa lamanzi phambi kwabo ukuze badle banathe, baye enkosini yabo.
Elisa buaa no se, “Nkunkum wɔn. So wubekunkum wɔn a wode wʼankasa afoa ne agyan afa wɔn nnommum no ana? Ma wɔn aduan ne nsu, na wonnidi, nnom na ma wɔnsan nkɔ wɔn wura nkyɛn.”
23 Yasibalungisela idili elikhulu; sebedlile banatha, yabayekela bahamba, baya enkosini yabo. Ngakho amaviyo amaSiriya kawabesaphinda ukubuya elizweni lakoIsrayeli.
Enti ɔhene no too wɔn pon kɛse, na wodidi, nom wiee no ɔma wɔsan kɔɔ wɔn hene nkyɛn. Enti Aramfo afowfo no twee wɔn ho fii Israel asase ho koraa.
24 Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho uBenihadadi inkosi yeSiriya wabutha ibutho lakhe lonke, wenyuka wavimbezela iSamariya.
Akyiri no, Aramhene Ben-Hadad boaboaa nʼakofo nyinaa ano, de wɔn kotuaa Samaria ano.
25 Kwasekusiba lendlala enkulu eSamariya; khangela-ke, bayivimbela, kwaze kwathi inhloko kababhemi yathengiswa ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, lengxenye eyodwa kwezine yegajana lobudolilo bejuba ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezinhlanu.
Ɛbaa saa no, ɔkɔm kɛse baa kurow no mu. Ɛyɛɛ kakra no, na wɔtɔn afurum ti nsania ani dwetɛ kilogram baako, na aborɔnoma bin kuruwa ma, na ne bo yɛ nsania ani dwetɛ gram aduonum awotwe.
26 Kwasekusithi inkosi yakoIsrayeli idlula phezu komduli, owesifazana wamemeza kiyo esithi: Siza, nkosi yami, nkosi!
Da bi a Israelhene nam kurow no fasu ho no, ɔbea bi kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔsrɛɛ no se, “Me wura ɔhene, mesrɛ wo, boa me.”
27 Yasisithi: Uba iNkosi ingakusizi, ngikusize ngokuvela ngaphi? Ebaleni lokubhulela kumbe esikhamelweni sewayini yini?
Obuaa no se, “Sɛ Awurade ammoa wo a, dɛn na metumi ayɛ? Minni aduan anaa nsa a mede bɛma wo.”
28 Inkosi yasisithi kuye: Ulani? Wasesithi: Lo owesifazana uthe: Letha indodana yakho ukuze siyidle lamuhla; kusasa-ke sizakudla indodana yami.
Ɔhene no bisaa no se, “Dɛn asɛm?” Obuae se, “Saa ɔbea yi kae se, yɛnwe me babarima da bi, na ade kye a, yɛawe ɔno nso de.
29 Sasesiyipheka indodana yami, sayidla. Ngasengisithi kuye ngosuku olulandelayo: Letha indodana yakho ukuze siyidle. Kodwa wayifihla indodana yakhe.
Enti yɛnoaa me babarima wee. Afei, ade kyee no, meka kyerɛɛ no se, ‘Kum wo babarima no ma yɛnwe,’ nanso na ɔde no akosie.”
30 Kwasekusithi inkosi isizwa amazwi alowo owesifazana yadabula izigqoko zayo. Yedlula phezu komduli; abantu basebebona, khangela-ke, kwakulesaka emzimbeni wayo, ngaphakathi.
Na ɔhene no tee saa asɛm no, osunsuan ne ntade mu. Na ɔhene no nenam ɔfasu no ho no, nnipa no huu sɛ ɔhyɛ atweaatam wɔ nʼase.
31 Yasisithi: UNkulunkulu kenze njalo kimi langokunjalo engezelele, uba ikhanda likaElisha indodana kaShafati lizahlala kuye lamuhla.
Ɔhene no kaa ntam se, “Sɛ nnɛ mankum Safat babarima Elisa a, Onyankopɔn nkum me.”
32 Kodwa uElisha wayehlezi endlini yakhe labadala babehlezi laye. Inkosi yasithuma umuntu esuka phambi kwayo; isithunywa singakafiki kuye, yena wathi kubadala: Liyabona yini ukuthi indodana le yombulali ithume ukususa ikhanda lami? Bonani, lapho isithunywa sifika, livale umnyango, lisibandezele emnyango. Kakusizisinde zenkosi yaso yini emva kwaso?
Elisa te ne fi a ɔne Israel mpanyimfo reyɛ nhyiamu na ɔhene somaa abɔfo kɔfrɛɛ no. Nanso ansa na abɔfo no rebedu no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ mpanyimfo no se, “Owudifo asoma ɔbarima bi sɛ ommekum me. Sɛ odu ha a, to pon no mu, na ɔnka akyi. Na ɛrenkyɛ ne wura no bedi nʼakyi aba.”
33 Kwathi esakhuluma labo, khangela-ke, inkosi yehlela kuye, yathi: Khangela, lobububi buvela eNkosini. Ngingabe ngisayilindelelani iNkosi?
Elisa gu so rekasa no, ɔbɔfo no bae. Na ɔhene no kae se, “Ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔde saa ɔhaw yi abrɛ yɛn! Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ mekɔ so twɛn Awurade?”
