2 Ымпэрацилор 4
1 О фемее динтре невестеле фиилор пророчилор а стригат луй Елисей: „Робул тэу, бэрбатул меу, а мурит ши штий кэ робул тэу се темя де Домнул; ши чел че л-а ымпрумутат а венит сэ я чей дой копий ай мей ши сэ-й факэ робь.”
One day the widow of one of [Yahweh’s] prophets came to Elisha and cried out to him, “My husband, who worked with you, is dead. You know that he revered Yahweh [very much]. But now a man to whom he owed a lot of money has come to me. [And because I cannot pay back the money, he is threatening] to take away my two sons to be his slaves [as payment for what I owe him]!”
2 Елисей й-а зис: „Че пот сэ фак пентру тине? Спуне-мь, че ай акасэ?” Еа а рэспунс: „Роаба та н-аре акасэ декыт ун вас ку унтделемн.”
Elisha replied, “What can I do to help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” She replied, “We have only a container of [olive] oil; we have nothing else.”
3 Ши ел а зис: „Ду-те де чере васе де афарэ, де ла тоць вечиний тэй, васе гоале, ши ну чере пуцине.
Elisha said, “Go to your neighbors and borrow from them as many empty jars as you can.
4 Кынд те вей ынтоарче, ынкиде уша дупэ тине ши дупэ копиий тэй, тоарнэ дин унтделемн ын тоате ачесте васе ши пуне деопарте пе челе плине.”
Then take the jars into your house with your sons. Shut the door. Then pour olive oil from your container into the other jars. When each jar is full, set it aside [and fill another jar. Keep doing that until all the jars are full].”
5 Атунч, еа а плекат де ла ел. А ынкис уша дупэ еа ши дупэ копиий ей; ей ый апропияу васеле ши еа турна дин унтделемн ын еле.
[So she did what Elisha told her to do]. Her sons kept bringing jars to her, and she kept filling them.
6 Кынд с-ау умплут васеле, еа а зис фиулуй сэу: „Май дэ-мь ун вас.” Дар ел й-а рэспунс: „Ну май есте ничун вас.” Ши н-а май курс унтделемн.
Soon all the jars were full. So she said to one of her sons, “Bring me another jar!” But he replied, “There are no more jars!” And then the olive oil stopped flowing.
7 Еа с-а дус де а спус омулуй луй Думнезеу лукрул ачеста. Ши ел а зис: „Ду-те де винде унтделемнул ши плэтеште-ць датория, яр ку че ва рэмыне вей трэи ту ши фиий тэй.”
When she told Elijah [what had happened], he said to her, “Now sell the jars of oil. And [with the money you get, ] pay what you owe, and there will be enough extra money to keep buying food for yourself and your sons.” [So she did that].
8 Ынтр-о зи, Елисей тречя прин Сунем. Аколо ера о фемее богатэ. Еа а стэруит де ел сэ примяскэ сэ мэнынче ла еа. Ши орь де кыте орь тречя, се дучя сэ мэнынче ла еа.
One day Elisha went to Shunem [town]. There was a wealthy woman who lived there [with her husband]. One day she invited Elisha to her house for a meal. [Elisha went there and] from then on, every time Elisha was in Shunem, he went to their house to eat a meal.
9 Еа а зис бэрбатулуй ей: „Ятэ, штиу кэ омул ачеста каре трече тотдяуна пе ла ной есте ун ом сфынт ал луй Думнезеу.
One day the woman said to her husband, “I am sure that this man who often comes here is a prophet [who brings messages] from God.
10 Сэ фачем о микэ одае сус, ку зидурь, ши сэ пунем ын еа ун пат пентру ел, о масэ, ун скаун ши ун сфешник, ка сэ стя аколо кынд ва вени ла ной.”
I think we should make a small room for him on our [flat] roof, and put a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp in it. If we do that, whenever he comes here, he will have a place to stay.” [So they did that].
11 Елисей, ынторкынду-се ла Сунем, с-а дус ын одая де сус ши с-а кулкат аколо.
One day Elisha returned to Shunem, and he went up to that room to rest.
12 Ел а зис служиторулуй сэу Гехази: „Кямэ пе сунамита ачаста!” Гехази а кемат-о ши еа а венит ынаинтя луй.
He said to his servant Gehazi, “Tell the woman that I want to speak to her.” [So the servant went and told her]. When she came [to the doorway of Elisha’s room],
13 Ши Елисей а зис луй Гехази: „Спуне-й: ‘Ятэ, пентру ной ту ць-ай фэкут тоатэ тулбураря ачаста. Ной че путем фаче пентру тине? Требуе сэ ворбим пентру тине ымпэратулуй сау кэпетенией оштирий?’” Еа а рэспунс: „Еу локуеск лиништитэ ын мижлокул попорулуй меу.”
Elisha said to Gehazi, “Tell her that we both appreciate all the kind things that she has done for us. Then ask her what we can do for her. Ask, ‘Do you want [me to go to] the king or the army commander, to request something for you?’” [Gehazi told her, ] and she replied, “No, [he does not need to do that, because] my family/relatives are able to give me what I need.”
14 Ши ел а зис: „Че сэ фак пентру еа?” Гехази а рэспунс: „Еа н-аре фиу ши бэрбатул ей есте бэтрын.”
[Later, ] Elisha asked Gehazi, “What do you think that we can do for that woman?” He replied, “She does not have a son, and her husband is an old man. [So maybe we should ask Yahweh to enable her to have a son].”
15 Ши ел а зис: „Кям-о!” Гехази а кемат-о ши еа а венит ла ушэ.
Elisha told Gehazi, “Call her back again.” [So Gehazi went and called her]. And when the woman returned, as she stood in the doorway,
16 Елисей й-а зис: „Ла анул, пе время ачаста, вей цине ын браце ун фиу.” Ши еа а зис: „Ну, домнул меу, омуле ал луй Думнезеу, ну амэӂи пе роаба та!”
Elisha said to her, “About this time next year you will be holding your [infant] son in your arms.” But she protested, “O, sir, you are a prophet [who brings messages] from God, so please do not deceive/lie to me by saying things like that!”
17 Фемея а рэмас ынсэрчинатэ ши а нэскут ун фиу кяр пе время ачея, ын анул урмэтор, кум ый спусесе Елисей.
But a few months later, the woman became pregnant, and she gave birth to a son at that time the following year, just like Elisha had predicted.
18 Копилул с-а фэкут маре. Ши, ынтр-о зи, кынд с-а дус пе ла татэл сэу ла сечерэторь,
When the child was older, one day he went out to the fields to see his father, who was [working] with the men who were harvesting [grain].
19 а зис татэлуй сэу: „Капул меу! Капул меу!” Татэл а зис служиторулуй сэу: „Ду-л ла мама са!”
[Suddenly] the boy exclaimed, “My head [hurts]! My head [hurts a lot]!” His father said to one of the servants, “Carry him home to his mother!”
20 Служиторул л-а луат ши л-а дус ла мама са. Ши копилул а стат пе ӂенункий мамей сале пынэ ла амязэ ши апой а мурит.
So the servant carried him home, and his mother held him on her lap. But at noontime the boy died.
21 Еа с-а суит, л-а кулкат пе патул омулуй луй Думнезеу, а ынкис уша дупэ еа ши а ешит.
She carried him up [the steps] to the prophet’s room and laid him on the bed. She left him there and went out and shut the door.
22 А кемат пе бэрбатул ей ши а зис: „Тримите-мь, те рог, ун служитор ши о мэгэрицэ; вряу сэ мэ дук ын грабэ ла омул луй Думнезеу ши апой мэ вой ынтоарче.”
She then called out to her husband, saying, “Send to me one of the servants and a donkey, so that I can ride [on it] quickly to the prophet, and then come back!” [But she did not tell her husband that their son had died].
23 Ши ел а зис: „Пентру че врей сэ те дучь астэзь ла ел? Доар ну есте нич лунэ ноуэ, нич Сабат.” Еа а рэспунс: „Фий пе паче!”
Her husband [called out to her and] said, “Why [do you want to go] today? This is not the day when we celebrate the Festival of the New Moon, and it is not a Sabbath day!” But she only replied, “[Just do what I requested and] everything will be all right.”
24 Апой а пус шауа пе мэгэрицэ ши а зис служиторулуй сэу: „Мынэ ши плякэ, сэ ну опрешть пе друм декыт кынд ць-ой спуне.”
So she [told the servant to] put saddles on [two] donkeys, and as they left, she said, “Hurry! Do not slow down unless t tell you to do that!”
25 Еа а плекат деч ши с-а дус ла омул луй Думнезеу пе мунтеле Кармел. Омул луй Думнезеу а вэзут-о де департе ши а зис служиторулуй сэу Гехази: „Ятэ пе сунамита ачея!
As they approached Carmel Mountain, where Elisha was, Elisha saw her in the distance. He said to Gehazi, “Look, the woman from Shunem is coming!
26 Акум, аляргэ дар ынаинтя ей ши спуне-й: ‘Ешть бине? Бэрбатул тэу ши копилул сунт бине?’” Еа а рэспунс: „Бине.”
Run to her, and ask her if everything is all right with her and her husband and with her child!” [So Gehazi ran to her and asked her, but she did not tell Gehazi anything.] She only said, “Yes, everything is fine.”
27 Ши, кум а ажунс ла омул луй Думнезеу пе мунте, й-а ымбрэцишат пичоареле. Гехази с-а апропият с-о дя ынапой. Дар омул луй Думнезеу а зис: „Лас-о, кэч есте таре амэрытэ ши Домнул мь-а аскунс лукрул ачеста ши ну ми л-а фэкут куноскут.”
But when she came to where Elisha was, she [prostrated herself on the ground in front of Elisha and] took hold of his feet. Gehazi started to push her away, but Elisha said, “(Do not push her away/Leave her alone)! Something is troubling her very much, but Yahweh has not told me what it is.”
28 Атунч, еа а зис: „Ам черут еу оаре домнулуй меу ун фиу? Н-ам зис еу: ‘Ну мэ амэӂи’?”
Then she said to Elisha, “O, sir, I did not ask you to enable me to give birth to a son [RHQ]. And I told you not to lie to me about that!” [RHQ]
29 Ши Елисей а зис луй Гехази: „Ынчинӂе-ць мижлокул, я тоягул меу ын мынэ ши плякэ. Дакэ вей ынтылни пе чинева, сэ ну-л ынтребь де сэнэтате ши, дакэ те ва ынтреба чинева де сэнэтате, сэ ну-й рэспунзь. Сэ пуй тоягул меу пе фаца копилулуй.”
Then Elisha [realized that something must have happened to her son. So he] said to Gehazi, “Get ready [to leave immediately]. Take my staff/walking stick and go [to her home]. Do not [stop to] talk to anyone on the way. Go quickly [to where her son is] and lay the staff on the child’s face. [If you do that, perhaps Yahweh will enable him to be well].”
30 Мама копилулуй а зис: „Виу есте Домнул ши виу есте суфлетул тэу кэ ну те вой пэрэси.” Ши ел с-а скулат ши а мерс дупэ еа.
But the boy’s mother said, “Just [as certain] as Yahweh lives and you live, I will not go home if you do not go with me.” So Elisha returned with her [to her home].
31 Гехази ле-о луасе ынаинте ши пусесе тоягул пе фаца копилулуй, дар н-а дат нич глас, нич семн де симцире. С-а ынторс ынаинтя луй Елисей, й-а спус лукрул ачеста ши а зис: „Копилул ну с-а трезит.”
Gehazi hurried quickly, and [when he got to the woman’s home, ] he laid the staff/walking stick on the child’s face, but the child did not move or say anything. So Gehazi returned to meet Elisha [along the road], and told him, “The child is still dead.”
32 Кынд а ажунс Елисей ын касэ, ятэ кэ мурисе копилул, кулкат ын патул луй.
When Elisha reached the house, he saw that the boy was lying dead on his bed.
33 Елисей а интрат ши а ынкис уша дупэ ей амындой ши с-а ругат Домнулуй.
Elisha went into the room by himself and shut the door and prayed to Yahweh.
34 С-а суит ши с-а кулкат пе копил; шь-а пус гура пе гура луй, окий луй пе окий луй, мыниле луй пе мыниле луй ши с-а ынтинс песте ел. Ши трупул копилулуй с-а ынкэлзит.
Then he lay down on the boy’s body, and put his mouth on the boy’s mouth, and put his eyes on the boy’s eyes, and put his hands on the boy’s hands. Then the boy’s body started to become warm!
35 Елисей а плекат, а мерс ынкоаче ши ынколо прин касэ, апой с-а суит ярэшь ши с-а ынтинс песте копил. Ши копилул а стрэнутат де шапте орь ши а дескис окий.
Elisha got up and walked back and forth in the room [several times]. Then he stretched his body on the boy’s body again. The boy sneezed seven times and opened his eyes!
36 Елисей а кемат пе Гехази ши а зис: „Кямэ пе сунамитэ.” Гехази а кемат-о ши еа а венит ла Елисей, каре а зис: „Я-ць фиул!”
Then Elisha summoned Gehazi. He said, “Call the boy’s mother!” [So Gehazi went and called her, ] and when she came in, Elisha said, “Here, take your son!”
37 Еа с-а дус ши с-а арункат ла пичоареле луй ши с-а ынкинат пынэ ла пэмынт. Ши шь-а луат фиул ши а ешит афарэ.
She [gratefully] prostrated herself at Elisha’s feet. Then she picked up her son and carried him downstairs.
38 Елисей с-а ынторс ла Гилгал, ши ын царэ бынтуя о фоамете. Пе кынд фиий пророчилор шедяу ынаинтя луй, а зис служиторулуй сэу: „Пуне оала чя маре ши фербе о чорбэ пентру фиий пророчилор!”
Then Elisha returned to Gilgal. But at that time there was (a famine/very little food) in that area. One day as the group of prophets was sitting in front of Elisha [listening to what he was teaching], he said to his servant, “Put a large pot on [the stove] and make some stew for these men.”
39 Унул дин ей а ешит пе кымп сэ кулягэ вердецурь; а гэсит вицэ сэлбатикэ ши а кулес дин еа куркубете сэлбатиче, пынэ шь-а умплут хайна. Кынд с-а ынторс, ле-а тэят ын букэць ын оала ку чорбэ, кэч ну ле куноштя.
One of the prophets went out to the fields to gather some vegetables. But he gathered [only] some wild gourds and put them in his cloak and brought them back. He shredded them and put them in the pot, but he did not know that the gourds were poisonous.
40 Ау дат оаменилор ачелора сэ мэнынче. Дар, кум ау мынкат дин чорба ачея, ау стригат: „Омуле ал луй Думнезеу, моартя есте ын оалэ!” Ши н-ау путут сэ мэнынче.
He served the stew to the prophets, but after the men had eaten only a couple bites, they cried out, “Elisha, there is something in the pot that will kill us!” So they would not eat it.
41 Елисей а зис: „Луаць фэинэ.” А арункат фэинэ ын оалэ ши а зис: „Дэ оаменилор ачестора сэ мэнынче.” Ши ну май ера нимик вэтэмэтор ын оалэ.
Elisha said, “Bring me some flour.” [They brought him some, and] he threw it in the pot and he said, “It is all right now. You can eat it.” And they ate it, and it did not harm them.
42 А венит ун ом дин Баал-Шалиша. А адус пыне дин челе динтый роаде омулуй луй Думнезеу, ши ануме доуэзечь де пынь де орз ши спиче ной ын сак. Елисей а зис: „Дэ оаменилор ачестора сэ мэнынче.”
One day a man from Baal-Shalishah [town] brought to Elisha a sack of freshly cut grain and 20 loaves of barley bread, made from the first grain that they harvested [that year]. Elisha said [to his servant], “Give it to the group of prophets, so that they can eat it.”
43 Служиторул сэу а рэспунс: „Кум пот сэ дау дин еле ла о сутэ де иншь?” Дар Елисей а зис: „Дэ оаменилор сэ мэнынче, кэч аша ворбеште Домнул: ‘Вор мынка, ши ва май рэмыне.’”
But his servant exclaimed, “Do you think that we can feed 100 of us prophets with only that much?” [RHQ] But Elisha replied, “Give it to the prophets so that they can eat it, because Yahweh says that there will be plenty for all of them, and there will be some left over!”
44 Атунч ле-а пус пыниле ынаинте ши ау мынкат ши ле-а май ши рэмас, дупэ кувынтул Домнулуй.
After his servant gave it to the prophets, they ate [all that they wanted], and there was food left over, just as Yahweh had promised.
