1 Elsaaʼi, “Dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa. Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Bor yoona karra Samaariyaa duratti daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti gurgurama” jedhe.
Elisha said, "Hear the word of Jehovah. Thus says Jehovah, 'Tomorrow about this time a measure of fine flour will be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.'"
2 Ajajaan loltootaa kan mootichi irree isaatti irkate sun nama Waaqaa sanaan, “Utuma Waaqayyo karra burqaa Samiiwwanii banee iyyuu wanni kun taʼuu dandaʼaa?” jedhe. Elsaaʼi immoo, “Ati ijuma keetiin argita; garuu tokkoo isaa illee hin nyaattu!” jedhe.
Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, "Look, if Jehovah made windows in heaven, could this thing be?" He said, "Look, you shall see it with your eyes, but shall not eat of it."
3 Yeroo kanatti namoota lamxii qaban afurtu balbala ittiin magaalattii seenan dura ture. Isaanis akkana waliin jedhan; “Nu maaliif hamma duunutti as teenya?
Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate. And they said to one another, "Why do we sit here until we die?
4 Yoo nu, ‘Kottaa magaalaa seennaa’ jenne, beelli achi jira; nus ni duuna. Yoo as turre ni duuna. Kanaafuu kottaa gara qubata warra Sooriyaa dhaqnaa. Yoo isaan nu maaran ni jiraanna; yoo isaan nu fixan immoo ni dhumna.”
If we say, 'We will enter into the city,' then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. If we sit still here, we also die. Now therefore come, and let us surrender to the army of the Arameans. If they save us alive, we will live; and if they kill us, we will only die."
5 Isaan galgala dimimmisaan kaʼanii gara qubata warra Sooriyaa ni dhaqan. Yommuu isaan qubata sana bira gaʼanitti namni tokko iyyuu achi hin turre;
They rose up in the twilight, to go to the camp of the Arameans. When they had come to the outermost part of the camp of the Arameans, look, there was no man there.
6 Kunis sababii Gooftaan akka warri Sooriyaa didichuu gaariiwwanii, fardeeniitii fi kan waraana guddaa dhagaʼanii, “Kunoo, mootiin Israaʼel nu dhaʼuuf jedhee mootii Heetotaatii fi mootii warra Gibxi nutti bitateera!” waliin jedhan godheef.
For Jehovah had made the army of the Arameans to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great army: and they said one to another, Look, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come on us.
7 Kanaafuu isaan dunkaana isaanii, fardeenii fi harroota isaanii dhiisanii dimimmisaan baqatan. Qubata isaaniis akkuma jirutti dhiisanii lubbuu isaanii oolfachuudhaaf ni baqatan.
Therefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their donkeys, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 Namoonni lamxii qaban sun daarii qubata sanaa bira gaʼanii dunkaana tokko seenan. Isaanis waa nyaatanii dhuganii meetii, warqee fi wayyaa guurratanii dhaqanii dhokfatan. Amma illee deebiʼanii dunkaana biraa seenanii waa keessaa guurratanii akkasuma dhokfatan.
When these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drink, and carried there silver, and gold, and clothing, and went and hid it. Then they came back, and entered into another tent, and carried there also, and went and hid it.
9 Kana irratti isaan akkana waliin jedhan; “Nu waan qajeelaa hojjechuutti hin jirru; guyyaan kun guyyaa oduu gaarii ti; nu garuu inuma calʼifne. Yoo nu hamma bariʼutti calʼifne adabbiitu nu eeggata. Kanaafuu kottaa dafnee dhaqnee oduu kana mana mootummaatti himnaa.”
Then they said one to another, "We aren't doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we keep silent. If we wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us. Now therefore come, let us go and tell the king's household."
10 Isaanis dhaqanii namoota karra magaalaa eegan waamanii, “Nu gara qubata warra Sooriyaa ni dhaqne; namni tokko illee achi hin turre; sagaleen nama tokkoo iyyuu hin dhagaʼamne. Fardeenii fi harroota hidhamanii fi dunkaana akkuma dhaabametti dhiifame qofatu ture” jedhan.
So they came and called to the gatekeepers of the city; and they told them, saying, "We came to the camp of the Arameans, and, look, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but the horses tied, and the donkeys tied, and the tents as they were."
11 Warri karra eegan sunis oduu kana ni labsan; oduun sunis masaraa mootummaa keessatti ni dhagaʼame.
The gatekeepers called out, and it was reported to the king's household within.
12 Mootichis halkaniin kaʼee ajajjoota loltoota isaatiin akkana jedhe; “Ani waan warri Sooriyaa nutti hojjetan isinittin hima; isaan akka nu beelaan miidhamaa jirru beeku; kanaafuu isaan, ‘Dhugumaan isaan gad ni baʼu; ergasiis nu utuma lubbuun jiranuu isaan qabnee magaalattii seenna’ jedhanii yaaduudhaan baadiyyaa keessa dhokachuudhaaf qubata dhiisanii baʼan.”
The king arose in the night, and said to his servants, "I will now show you what the Arameans have done to us. They know that we are hungry. Therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, 'When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into the city.'"
13 Ajajjoota loltoota isaa keessaa tokko akkana jedhee deebise; “Namoonni tokko tokko fardeen magaalaa keessatti hafan keessaa shan fudhatanii haa deeman. Rakkinni isaanii akkuma Israaʼeloota asitti hafan hundaa ti; dhugumaan isaan akkuma Israaʼeloota dhuman sana hundaa ni taʼu. Kanaafuu kottaa waan taʼe beekuudhaaf isaan erginaa.”
And one of his servants answered, "Please let some take five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city. Look, they are like the whole multitude of Israel who have already perished. Let us send and see."
14 Kanaafuu isaan gaariiwwan lama fardeen isaanii wajjin ni filan; mootichis, “Dhaqaatii ilaalaa” jedhee loltoota Sooriyaa duubaan isaan erge.
They took therefore two chariots with horses; and the king sent after the army of the Arameans, saying, "Go and see."
15 Isaanis hamma Yordaanositti isaan duukaa buʼan; kunoo karaan hundi uffataa fi miʼa warri Sooriyaa yeroo ariitiidhaan baqatanitti daddarbataniin guutamee ture. Ergamoonni sunis deebiʼanii mootichatti himan.
They went after them to the Jordan; and look, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Arameans had cast away in their haste. The messengers returned, and told the king.
16 Ergasiis namoonni gad yaaʼanii qubata warra Sooriyaa ni saaman. Kanaafuu akkuma Waaqayyo dubbate sana daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti gurgurame.
The people went out, and plundered the camp of the Arameans. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of Jehovah.
17 Mootichis yeroo kanatti ajajaa loltootaa kan irree isaatti irkatee ture sana itti gaafatamaa karraa godhee muude; namoonnis karra duratti isa irra yaaʼan; innis akkuma namni Waaqaa yeroo mootichi mana isaa dhufetti dubbate sana ni duʼe.
The king appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to be in charge of the gate: and the people trod on him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.
18 Kunis akkuma namni Waaqaa sun, “Bori yoona karra Samaariyaa duratti daakuun safartuun tokko saqilii tokkotti, garbuun safartuun lama immoo saqilii tokkotti ni gurgurama” jedhee mootichatti hime sana taʼe.
It happened, as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, "Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be tomorrow about this time in the gate of Samaria";
19 Ajajaan loltootaa sunis nama Waaqaa sanaan “Utuma Waaqayyo karra burqaa samiiwwanii bane illee wanni kun taʼuu dandaʼaa?” jedhe. Namni Waaqaa sun immoo, “Ati ijuma keetiin argita; garuu tokkicha isaa illee hin nyaattu!” jedhe.
and that captain answered the man of God, and said, "Now, look, if Jehovah should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be?" and he said, "Look, you shall see it with your eyes, but shall not eat of it."
20 Wanni isa irra gaʼes dhugumaan kanaa dha; inni waan namoonni karra duratti isa irra yaaʼaniif duʼeetii.
It happened like that to him; for the people trod on him in the gate, and he died.
