1 Ilmaan raajotaa sun Elsaaʼiin akkana jedhan; “Kunoo, iddoon nu si wajjin wal geenyu nutti dhiphateera.
Ixuku labaphrofethi lathi ku-Elisha, “Khangela, indawo esihlala kiyo lawe kayisasanelanga.
2 Akka nu Yordaanos dhaqnee tokkoon tokkoon keenya muka cirannee iddoo jiraannu achitti ijaarrannuuf nuu eeyyami.” Innis, “Dhaqaa” jedheen.
Asiye eJodani lapho esizagamula khona izigodo sakhe indawo yokuhlala.” U-Elisha wathi, “Kulungile, hambani.”
3 Isaan keessaa namni tokko, “Maaloo ati nu garboota kee wajjin hin deemtuu?” jedhee gaafate. Elsaaʼi immoo, “Nan deema” jedhee deebise.
Omunye wabo wathi, “Ungazake uhambe lezinceku zakho na?” U-Elisha wathi, “Kulungile ngizahamba.”
4 Innis isaan wajjin deeme. Isaan Yordaanos dhaqanii muka cirachuu jalqaban.
Ngakho wasehamba labo. Baya eJodani bafika baqalisa ukugamula izigodo.
5 Isaan keessaa tokko utuu muka muruutti jiruu qottoon muka isaa irraa buqqaʼee bishaan keessa buʼe. Namichi sunis, “Wayyoo kaa, yaa gooftaa koo; wanni kun waan ergifatamee dha!” jedhee iyye.
Omunye wathi egamula, ihloka lakhe laqamuka isihloko salo sawela emanzini. Wasekhala esithi, “Nkosi yami, ihloka leli bengilibolekile.”
6 Namni Waaqaa sunis “Qottoon eessa buʼe?” jedhee gaafate. Yommuu inni iddoo qottoon sun buʼe isa argisiisetti Elsaaʼi muka xinnaa tokko kutee achi keessa buusee akka sibiilli sun bishaan gubbaa deemu godhe.
Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasebuza esithi, “Liwele ngaphi?” Uthe esemtshengisile indawo yakhona, u-Elisha wagamula uswazi waluphosela khonapho, lokho kwenza ihloka lelo landenda.
7 Innis, “Ol fudhadhu” jedheen. Namichi sunis harka diriirfatee qottoo isaa fudhate.
Wasesithi, “Lenyule emanzini.” Umuntu lowo welula isandla sakhe walenyula.
8 Yeroo sanatti mootiin Sooriyaa Israaʼeliin wal lolaa ture. Innis erga ajajjoota loltoota isaatiin mariʼatee booddee, “Ani lafa akkasiitii fi lafa akkasii keessa qubata koo nan dhaabbadha” jedhe.
Inkosi yase-Aramu yayisempini ilwisana labako-Israyeli. Ngemva kokukhulumisana lezikhulu zayo inkosi yathi, “Inkamba yami ngizayimisa endaweni ethile.”
9 Namni Waaqaa sunis, “Sababii namoonni Sooriyaa achitti gad buʼaa jiraniif ati akka karaa sanaan hin dabarre of eeggadhu” jedhee mootii Israaʼelitti ergaa erge.
Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathumela ilizwi enkosini yako-Israyeli lisithi, “Qaphela ungedluli kuleyana indawo, ngoba ama-Aramu azakwehla ayekhona.”
10 Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel gara iddoo namni Waaqaa sun waaʼee isaa dubbate sanaatti nama ergee ni toʼate. Elsaaʼis akka mootichi iddoowwan akkasii irraa of eeggatu ammumaa amma isa akeekkachiise.
Ngakho inkosi yako-Israyeli yahlolisisa kuleyondawo eyayiqanjwe ngumuntu kaNkulunkulu. U-Elisha wakuphinda enkosini lokhu kuxwayisa kanenginengi, ukuze izivikele ezindaweni ezinjengalezi.
11 Wanni kun akka malee mootii Sooriyaa aarse. Innis ajajjoota loltoota isaa walitti waamee, “Isin amma nama nu keessaa mootii Israaʼeliif hojjechaa jiru natti hin himtanii?” jedhee gaafate.
Lokhu kwayithukuthelisa inkosi yase-Aramu. Yabiza izikhulu zayo yazihwabhela yathi, “Aliyikungitshela yini ukuthi phakathi kwethu ngubani oseceleni lenkosi yako-Israyeli na?”
12 Ajajjoota sana keessaa namni tokko akkana jedhe; “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, nu keessaa namni akkasii hin jiru; garuu Elsaaʼi raajicha Israaʼel keessa jiru sanatu dubbii ati diinqa kee keessatti dubbattu hunda mootii Israaʼelitti hima.”
Esinye sezikhulu zakhe sathi, “Kakho phakathi kwethu nkosi yami, kodwa u-Elisha, umphrofethi wako-Israyeli, ulakho ukutshela inkosi yako-Israyeli ngalawo mazwi owakhuluma usendlini yakho yokulala.”
13 Mootichi Sooriyaas, “Akka ani nama itti ergee isa qabsiisuu dandaʼuuf dhaqaatii lafa inni jiru ilaalaa” jedhee ajaje. Oduun, “Inni Dootaan keessa jira” jedhu tokkos isatti himame.
Inkosi yabalaya yathi, “Hambani liyemdinga lapho akhona, ukuze ngithumele amadoda ayemthumba.” Kwavela impendulo ethi, “UseDothani.”
14 Innis ergasii fardeen, gaariiwwanii fi waraana jabaa achitti ni erge. Isaanis halkaniin dhaqanii magaalaa sana marsan.
Inkosi yasithumela amabhiza lezinqola zokulwa kanye lamabutho aqinileyo. Bahamba ebusuku bahle bagombolozela umuzi wakhona.
15 Yommuu tajaajilaan nama Waaqaa sanaa guyyaa itti aanu ganama bariin gad baʼetti humni waraanaa tokko fardeenii fi gaariiwwaniin magaalaa sana marsee ture. Tajaajilaan sunis, “Wayyoo kaa, yaa gooftaa ko, maal goonu?” jedhee gaafate.
Kuthe inceku yomuntu kaNkulunkulu ivuka ekuseni ngelanga elilandelayo yaphuma phandle yathola amabutho alamabhiza lezinqola zokulwa sezihonqolozele idolobho. Inceku yethuka yathi, “Maye, nkosi yami, sizakwenzenjani na?”
16 Raajiin sun immoo, “Hin sodaatin; warri nu wajjin jiran warra isaan wajjin jiran caalaniitii” jedhee deebise.
Umphrofethi wathi, “Ungesabi. Labo abalathi banengi kulalabo abangakubo.”
17 Elsaaʼis, “Yaa Waaqayyo, akka inni arguu dandaʼuuf ija isaa baniif” jedhee kadhate. Waaqayyos ija tajaajilaa sanaa ni bane; innis milʼatee akka gaarran sun naannoo Elsaaʼitti fardeenii fi gaariiwwan ibiddaatiin guutamanii jiran ni arge.
U-Elisha wasekhuleka wathi, “Oh Thixo, vula amehlo akhe ukuze abone.” Ngakho uThixo wavula amehlo enceku, yakhangela yabona amaqaqa agcwele amabhiza lezinqola zokulwa ezomlilo zihonqolozele u-Elisha.
18 Diinni sun gara isaatti gad buunaan Elsaaʼi, “Jara kana jaamsi” jedhee Waaqayyoon kadhate. Kanaafuu Waaqni akkuma Elsaaʼi isa kadhate sana isaan jaamse.
Kuthe izitha zisondela kuye, u-Elisha wakhuleka kuThixo wathi, “Tshaya lababantu babe yiziphofu.” Ngakho wabaphumputhekisa, njengokucela kuka-Elisha.
19 Elsaaʼis, “Karaan sun kana miti; magaalaan sunis kana miti. Amma na duukaa buʼaa; anis nama isin barbaaddanitti isinan geessa” jedheen. Innis akkasiin Samaariyaatti isaan ni geesse.
U-Elisha wabatshela wathi, “Akusiwo umgwaqo njalo akusiwo umuzi eliwudingayo. Ngilandelani, ngizalikhokhela liye emuntwini elimdingayo.” Ngakho wabakhokhelela eSamariya.
20 Erga isaan magaalaa sana seenanii booddee Elsaaʼi, “Yaa Waaqayyo akka isaan arguu dandaʼaniif ija jara kanaa baniif” jedhe. Waaqayyos ija isaanii ni baneef; isaanis akka Samaariyaa keessa jiran ni argan.
Sebephakathi komuzi, u-Elisha wathi, “Thixo, vula amehlo alababantu ukuze babone.” Ngakho uThixo wavula amehlo abo, bazibonela ukuthi babephakathi kweSamariya.
21 Mootiin Israaʼelis isaan arginaan, “Yaa abbaa ko, ani isaan fixuu? Ani isaan fixuu?” jedhee Elsaaʼin ni gaafate.
Inkosi yako-Israyeli ithe ibabona, yabuza ku-Elisha yathi, “Ngibabulale yini, baba? Ngibabulale na?”
22 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Isaan hin fixin; ati namoota boojite goraadee keetiin yookaan xiyya keetiin ni ajjeeftaa? Akka isaan nyaatanii dhuganii gara gooftaa isaaniitti deebiʼaniif nyaataa fi dhugaatii dhiʼeessiif.”
Yena waphendula wathi, “Ungababulali. Kambe ungababulala yini ngenkemba loba ngomtshoko wakho abantu obathumbileyo. Baphe ukudla lamanzi ukuze badle babe sebebuyela enkosini yabo.”
23 Kanaafuu inni cidha guddaa qopheesseefii erga isaan nyaatanii dhuganii booddee of irraa isaan geggeesse; isaanis gara gooftaa isaaniitti deebiʼan. Namoonni Sooriyaas ergasii deebiʼanii biyya Israaʼel hin weerarre.
Inkosi yako-Israyeli yasibenzela idili elikhulu, bathe sebeqedile ukudla lokunatha, yabakhulula ukuba bahambe, ngakho basuka babuyela enkosini yabo. Kwathi amaxuku amabutho ase-Aramu ayehlala ehlasela elako-Israyeli akhawula ukuhlasela.
24 Yeroo gabaabaa booddee, Ben-Hadaad mootichi Sooriyaa loltoota isaa hunda walitti qabatee dhaqee Samaariyaa marse.
Ngemva kwesikhathi, uBheni-Hadadi inkosi yase-Aramu yaqoqa amabutho ayo wonke yayavimbezela umuzi waseSamariya.
25 Beela akka malee hamaatu magaalaa sana keessa ture; waan magaalaan sun yeroo dheeraadhaaf marfamteef, mataan harree tokko meetii saqilii saddeettamatti, udaan gugee kiiloon tokko harka afur keessaa harki tokko meetii saqilii shanitti gurgurame.
Kwaba lendlala enkulu eSamariya ngesikhathi sokuvinjezelwa kwayo; ngakho inhloko kababhemi yayithengiswa ngamashekeli esiliva angamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, legajana lombhida othile ngamashekeli amahlanu esiliva.
26 Utuu mootiin Israaʼel dallaa dhagaa irraan darbuu dubartiin tokko, “Yaa gooftaa koo mooticha, na gargaari” jettee itti iyyite.
Kwathi ngolunye usuku inkosi yako-Israyeli ihambahamba phezu komduli womuzi, owesifazane othile wamemeza esithi kuyo, “Akungincede, baba nkosi yami!”
27 Mootichi immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Yoo Waaqayyo si hin gargaarin ani eessaan gargaarsa siif arga? Oobdii midhaanii irraa moo? Iddoo wayinii itti cuunfan irraa?”
Inkosi yaphendula yathi, “Nxa uThixo engakusizi, mina kambe ngizaluthatha ngaphi uncedo? Ngizaluthatha esikhamelweni sewayini yini loba esizeni sokubhulela na?”
28 Ergasii, “Rakkoon kee maal?” jedhee ishee gaafate. Isheenis akkana jettee deebifteef; “Dubartiin kun, ‘Akka nu harʼa isa nyaannuuf mucaa kee nuu kenni; bor immoo mucaa koo nyaannaatii’ naan jette.
Wasebuza wathi, “Kodwa uhlutshwa yini?” Owesifazane waphendula wathi, “Owesifazane lo uthe kimi, ‘Letha umntanakho ukuba simudle lamuhla, kuzakuthi kusasa sidle owami.’
29 Kanaaf nu mucaa koo bilcheeffannee nyaanne. Guyyaa itti aanutti immoo ani, ‘Akka nu isa nyaannuuf mucaa kee nuuf kenni’ jedheen. Isheen garuu mucaa ishee ni dhokfatte.”
Ngakho simphekile umntanami samudla. Ngosuku olulandelayo ngasengisithi, ‘Letha umntanakho ukuba simudle.’ Kodwa yena ubesemfihlile.”
30 Mootichi yommuu dubbii dubartii sanaa dhagaʼetti uffata isaa tarsaase. Utuu inni dallaa dhagaa irraan darbaa jiruu namoonni akka inni dhagna isaatti aansee wayyaa gaddaa uffatee jiru argan.
Inkosi ithe isizwa okwakutshiwo ngowesifazane lowo yadabula izigqoko zayo. Inkosi yayihamba phezu komduli, abantu bayikhangela, babona ukuthi isigqoko sayo sangaphansi sasingesokulila.
31 Innis, “Yoo mataan Elsaaʼi ilma Shaafaax, edana isa irra bule, Waaqni na haa adabu; adabbiin sunis akka malee natti haa cimuu!” jedhe.
Inkosi yathi, “Sengathi uNkulunkulu angangihlanekela kubi nxa ikhanda lika-Elisha indodana kaShafathi kungasa lilokhu limi phezu kwamahlombe akhe lamuhla!”
32 Yeroo kanatti Elsaaʼi mana isaa keessa taaʼaa ture; maanguddoonnis isa wajjin tataaʼaa turan. Mootichi ergamaa tokko of dura erge; garuu utuu ergamaan sun hin dhufinuu Elsaaʼi maanguddootaan akkana jedhe; “Isin akka namichi nama ajjeesu kun mataa narraa kutuuf nama erge argituu? Kunoo yoo ergamaan sun dhufe balbala cufaatii ol seenuu dhowwaa. Kotteen gooftaa isaa isa duubaan dhagaʼamaa jira mitii?”
U-Elisha wayehlezi endlini yakhe labadala babehlezi laye. Inkosi yasithumela isithunywa phambili, kodwa sithe singakafiki u-Elisha wathi ebadaleni, “Liyakubona yini ukuthi umbulali lo usethumele umuntu ukuba azoquma ikhanda lami na? Khangelani, ekufikeni kwesithunywa lapha libovala umnyango libambe isivalo siqine. Kalizizwa yini izisinde zenkosi yaso ngemva kwaso na?”
33 Utuma inni amma iyyuu isaan wajjin haasaʼaa jiruu, ergamaan sun gara isaa dhufe. Mootichis, “Balaan kun Waaqayyo biraa dhufe. Ani siʼachi maaliifin Waaqayyoon eega?” jedhe.
Kwathi esakhuluma, isithunywa sahle safika. Ngakho inkosi yathi, “Uhlupho lonke lolu luvela kuThixo. Pho-ke ngisamlindelelani uThixo na?”
