4 Ipapo ugopinda mumba uzvipfigire mukova iwe navana vako. Udire mafuta mumidziyo yose, ugoisa parutivi mudziyo unenge wazara.”
Ũcooke ũtoonye nyũmba yaku thĩinĩ hamwe na ariũ aku, na ũhinge mũrango. Ũitĩrĩre maguta ndigithũ-inĩ icio ciothe, na o ĩrĩa yaiyũra ũkamĩiga mwena-inĩ.”

Rĩrĩa ndigithũ ciothe ciaiyũrire, akĩĩra mũriũ atĩrĩ, “Ndehere ndigithũ ĩngĩ.” No mũriũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Hatirĩ ndigithũ ĩngĩ ĩtigarĩte.” Namo maguta magĩthira.
7 Akaenda kundoudza munhu waMwari uye iye akati, “Chienda unotengesa mafuta ugoripa zvikwereti zvako, iwe navanakomana vako mugorarama neanenge asara.”
Agĩthiĩ akĩĩra mũndũ wa Ngai ũhoro ũcio, nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ wendie maguta ũrĩhe mathiirĩ maku. We na ariũ aku-rĩ, mũtũũrio nĩ kĩrĩa gĩgũtigara.”

Mũtumia ũcio akĩĩra mũthuuriwe atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ mũndũ ũyũ ũhĩtũkagĩra gũkũ gwitũ kaingĩ nĩ mũndũ mũtheru wa Ngai.
10 Ngativakei kamuri padenga tigomuisira mubhedha netafura, nechigaro uye nerambi imomo. Ipapo achakwanisa kugaramo paanenge angotishanyira.”

Akĩĩra Gehazi ndungata yake atĩrĩ, “Ĩta mũtumia ũcio Mũshunami.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmwĩta nake akĩrũgama mbere yake.
13 Erisha akati kwaari, “Muudze kuti, ‘Makatitamburira imi pane zvose izvi, zvino mungaitirwewo chii? Tingakumiririrai kuna mambo here kana kumukuru wehondo?’” Iye akapindura akati, “Ndine musha pakati pavanhu vokwangu.”
Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩra mũtumia ũcio atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩwĩthĩnĩtie mũno nĩ ũndũ witũ. Na rĩrĩ, ũngĩenda gwĩkĩrwo atĩa? No tũkwarĩrĩrie harĩ mũthamaki kana harĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita?’” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndirĩ na thĩĩna, ndũũranagia na andũ aitũ.”
14 Erisha akabvunza akati, “Angaitirwe chiiko?” Gehazi akati, “Zvirokwazvo, haana mwanakomana uye murume wake akwegura.”
Ningĩ Elisha akĩũria Gehazi atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ angĩĩkĩrwo atĩa?” Gehazi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndarĩ mwana wa kahĩĩ, na mũthuuriwe nĩ mũkũrũ.”
15 Ipapo Erisha akati, “Mudane.” Naizvozvo akamudana, mukadzi akamira pamukova.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwĩte.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Gehazi akĩmwĩta, nake mũtumia ũcio akĩrũgama mũromo-inĩ.
16 Erisha akati, “Nenguva inenge ino gore rinouya, uchafungatira mwanakomana mumaoko ako.” Iye akati, “Kwete, ishe wangu. Haiwa munhu waMwari, musarevera nhema murandakadzi wenyu!”
Nake Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ihinda ta rĩĩrĩ mwaka ũyũ ũgũũka-rĩ, nĩũkanyiita mwana waku wa kahĩĩ na moko maku.” Nake akĩrega, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca, mwathi wakwa, tiga kũheenia ndungata yaku, wee mũndũ wa Ngai!”
17 Asi mukadzi akava nemimba, uye gore raitevera nenguva yakare iyoyo akapona mwanakomana, sezvaakanga audzwa naErisha.
No rĩrĩ, mũtumia ũcio akĩgĩa nda, na mwaka ũcio ũngĩ ihinda o ta rĩu agĩciara kahĩĩ, o ta ũrĩa Elisha aamwĩrĩte.
18 Mwana akati akura, nerimwe zuva akaenda kuna baba vake, kwavaiva navakohwi.
Mwana ũcio agĩkũra, na mũthenya ũmwe akiumagara, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ ithe, ũrĩa warĩ hamwe na agethi.

Nake akĩĩra ithe atĩrĩ, “Wũi mũtwe-ĩ! Wũi mũtwe-ĩ!” Nake ithe akĩĩra ndungata atĩrĩ, “Mũkuue ũmũtwarĩre nyina.”
20 Mushure mokunge muranda amusimudza, akaenda naye kuna mai vake, mukomana akagara pamakumbo amai vake kusvikira masikati, ndokubva afa.
Na thuutha wa ndungata kũmũkuua na kũmũtwarĩra nyina-rĩ, mwana ũcio agĩikara magũrũ-inĩ ma nyina nginya mĩaraho, agĩcooka agĩkua.
21 Vakakwira pamusoro naye vakandomuradzika pamubhedha womunhu waMwari, ndokupfiga mukova ndokubuda.
Nyina agĩthiĩ, akĩmũkomia ũrĩrĩ-inĩ wa mũndũ wa Ngai, agĩcooka akĩhinga mũrango, agĩthiĩ.
22 Mukadzi akadana murume wake akati, “Ndapota, ndidanire mumwe wavaranda nembongoro kuti ndiende kumunhu waMwari nokukurumidza ndigodzoka.”
Nake agĩĩta mũthuuriwe, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha ũndũmĩre ndungata ĩmwe na ndigiri, nĩguo thiĩ kũrĩ mũndũ wa Ngai na ihenya na njooke.”
23 Iye akamubvunza akati, “Uri kuendereiko kwaari nhasi? Hakusi Kugara kwoMwedzi kana Sabata.” Akapindura akati, “Hazvina mhosva.”
Nake akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũgũthiĩ kũrĩ we ũmũthĩ nĩkĩ, na ti Karũgamo ka Mweri kana Thabatũ?” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Hatirĩ na thĩĩna.”
24 Akaisa chigaro pamusoro pembongoro akati kumuranda wake, “Tungamira; usafamba zvishoma uchiitira ini kunze kwokunge ndakuudza.”
Agĩtandĩka ndigiri, na akĩĩra ndungata yake atĩrĩ, “Tengʼeria ndigiri, na ndũgaathiĩ kahora tiga ngwĩrire.”
25 Naizvozvo akaenda akasvika kumunhu waMwari paGomo reKarimeri. Akati achimuona achiri kure, munhu waMwari akati kumuranda wake Gehazi, “Tarisa! Hoyo mukadzi muShunami!
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩambĩrĩria rũgendo, agĩkinya kũrĩ mũndũ wa Ngai Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Karimeli. Nake mũndũ wa Ngai rĩrĩa aamuonire arĩ o haraihu akĩĩra ndungata yake Gehazi atĩrĩ, “Ta cũthĩrĩria! Ũũrĩa nĩ mũtumia ũrĩa Mũshunami!
26 Mhanya undosangana naye ugomubvunza kuti, ‘Munofara mose here? Ko, murume wako anofara here? Ko, mwana wako anofara here?’” Mukadzi akati, “Zvose zvakanaka.”
Hanyũka ũmũtũnge na ũmũũrie atĩrĩ, ‘Wee ũrĩ mwega? Ĩ mũthuuri waku no mwega? Mwana waku no mwega?’” Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ mothe nĩ mega.”
27 Paakasvika kumunhu waMwari paGomo, akabata makumbo ake. Gehazi akauya achiti amusundire kure, asi munhu waMwari akati, “Murege akadaro! Nokuti ane shungu dzinomutambudza, asi Jehovha akandivanzira chinhu ichi uye haana kundiudza kuti imhaka yei.”
Mũtumia ũcio aakinya harĩ mũndũ wa Ngai kĩrĩma-inĩ, akĩmũnyiita magũrũ. Nake Gehazi agĩũka kũmweheria, no mũndũ wa Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tigana nake! Arĩ na ruo rũnene mũno ngoro, no Jehova nĩahithĩte ũhoro ũyũ akaaga kũũmenyithia gĩtũmi kĩa guo.”
28 Mukadzi akati, “Ndakakukumbirai mwanakomana here, tenzi wangu? Ko, handina kukutaurirai kuti musandinyengedzera here?”
Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee mwathi wakwa, nĩndakũũrĩtie ũhe kahĩĩ? Githĩ ndiakwĩrire, ‘Ndũkarahũre mwĩhoko wakwa’?”
29 Erisha akati kuna Gehazi, “Zvisunge chiuno ubate tsvimbo yangu muruoko rwako umhanye. Kana ukasangana naani zvake, usamukwazisa, uye ani naani anokukwazisa, iwe usapindura. Uradzike tsvimbo yangu pauso hwomukomana.”
Nake Elisha akĩĩra Gehazi atĩrĩ, “Wĩohe mũcibi njohero na ũkuue rũthanju rwakwa na guoko, ũhanyũke. Ũngĩcemania na mũndũ o wothe ndũkamũgeithie, na mũndũ o wothe angĩkũgeithia ndũkamũcookerie. Ũthiĩ ũigĩrĩre rũthanju rwakwa ũthiũ-inĩ wa kamwana kau.”
30 Asi mai vomwana vakati, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, uye noupenyu hwenyu, handisi kuzokusiyai.” Naizvozvo akasimuka akamutevera.
Nowe nyina wa mwana akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, na o ta ũrĩa wee ũtũũraga muoyo-rĩ, niĩ ndigũgũtiga.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elisha agĩũkĩra, akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
31 Gehazi akatungamira mberi akandoisa tsvimbo pachiso chomwana, asi hapana chakanzwika kana chakapfakanyika. Naizvozvo Gehazi akadzokera kuti andosangana naErisha akamuudza kuti, “Mukomana haana kumuka.”
Na rĩrĩ, Gehazi agĩthiĩ arĩ mbere yao, akĩigĩrĩra rũthanju ũthiũ-inĩ wa kahĩĩ kau, no gatiagambire kana kwĩnyagunyia. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Gehazi akĩhũndũka agatũnge Elisha, na akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Kamwana gatiinokĩra.”
32 Erisha paakasvika pamba, akawana mukomana ari pamubhedha akafa.
Rĩrĩa Elisha aakinyire nyũmba, agĩkora kamwana gakomete gĩtanda-inĩ gĩake karĩ gakuũ.
33 Akapinda mukati, akapfiga mukova iye nomwana vari vaviri, akanyengetera kuna Jehovha.
Nake agĩtoonya thĩinĩ, akĩĩhingĩra na mũrango marĩ o eerĩ nako, akĩhooya Jehova.
34 Ipapo akakwira pamubhedha akatsivama pamusoro pomwana, akaisa muromo wake pamuromo womwana, nameso ake pameso omwana, uye maoko pamaoko ake. Paakatsivamira pamusoro pake, muviri womukomana wakatanga kudziya.
Ningĩ akĩhaica ũrĩrĩ, agĩkomera kamwana kau, kanua gwa kanua, maitho kwa maitho, na moko kwa moko. Na rĩrĩa eetambũrũkĩtie igũrũ rĩako, mwĩrĩ wa kamwana kau ũkĩgĩa ũrugarĩ.
35 Erisha akafuratira, achifamba-famba mukati mekamuri akadzokerazve pamubhedha akatsivamazve pamusoro pake. Mukomana akahotsira kanomwe kose ndokusvinura meso ake.
Nake Elisha agĩũkĩra, akĩehera, akĩũrũũranga kanyũmba thĩinĩ, agĩcooka gĩtanda-inĩ, agĩĩtambũrũkia rĩngĩ igũrũ rĩako. Kamwana kau gagĩathimũra maita mũgwanja, na gakĩhingũra maitho.
36 Erisha akadana Gehazi akati kwaari, “Dana mukadzi muShunami.” Iye akaita saizvozvo. Akati apinda, Erisha akati kwaari, “Tora mwanakomana wako.”
Nake Elisha agĩĩta Gehazi, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩta mũtumia ũcio Mũshunami.” Nake akĩmwĩta. Rĩrĩa mũtumia ookire-rĩ, Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya mũrũguo.”
37 Ipapo akapinda, akazviwisira patsoka dzake akakotamira pasi, akasimuka akatora mwanakomana wake akabuda.
Nake agĩtoonya, akĩĩgũithia thĩ magũrũ-inĩ make, akĩinamia ũthiũ thĩ. Agĩcooka akĩoya mwana wake, akiuma.
38 Erisha akadzokera kuGirigari uye maiva nenzara mudunhu imomo. Boka ravanakomana vavaprofita parakanga rigere pamberi pake, akati kumuranda wake, “Gadzai hari huru mubikire boka ravaprofita ava zvokudya.”
Nake Elisha agĩcooka Giligali, nakuo kũu bũrũri-inĩ ũcio nĩ kwarĩ na ngʼaragu. Rĩrĩa thiritũ ya anabii yacemanagia nake, akĩĩra ndungata yake atĩrĩ, “Hagĩra nyũngũ nene ũrugĩre andũ aya irio.”
39 Mumwe wavo akaenda kuminda kundotanha muriwo akawana magaka omusango. Akaunganidza mamwe acho akaazadza mujasi rake. Paakadzokera, akaatema-tema ndokuaisa muhari yomuriwo, kunyange zvazvo pakanga pasina aiziva kuti zvaiva zvii.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ũmwe wa anabii agĩthiĩ mũgũnda gwetha nyeni, agĩkora rũũngũ rwa gĩthaka. Agĩtua maciaro maruo, akĩmaiyũria ruuno-inĩ rwa nguo yake ya igũrũ. Acooka akĩmatinangĩria nyũngũ-inĩ ĩyo yarugaga irio, o na gũtuĩka gũtirĩ mũndũ wamenyire ciarĩ kĩĩ.
40 Zvokudya zvakapakurirwa vanhu, asi pavakatanga kudya vakadanidzira vakati, “Nhai munhu waMwari, mune rufu muhari!” Uye vakatadza kuzvidya.
Andũ acio makĩihũrĩrwo irio icio, no rĩrĩa maambĩrĩirie gũcirĩa-rĩ, magĩkaya makiuga atĩrĩ, “Wũi mũndũ wa Ngai, nyũngũ-inĩ ĩno he na gĩkuũ!” Nao makĩremwo nĩ gũcirĩa.
41 Erisha akati, “Uyai noupfu.” Akahuisa muhari akati, “Ipai vanhu vadye.” Ipapo hapana kuzova nechinokuvadza muhari.
Nake Elisha akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rehei mũtu.” Nake akĩwĩkĩra nyũngũ-inĩ ĩyo, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ihũrĩra andũ marĩe.” Na hakĩaga kĩndũ kĩngĩmathũkia irio-inĩ icio.
42 Mumwe murume akauya achibva kuBhaari Sharisha achivigira munhu waMwari marofu makumi maviri echingwa chebhari chakanga chabikwa nezviyo zvakatanga kuibva, pamwe chete nehura dzezviyo zvitsva. Erisha akati, “Ipai vanhu vadye.”
Na rĩrĩ, hagĩũka mũndũ oimĩte Baali-Shalisha, akĩrehera mũndũ wa Ngai mĩgate mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ ya cairi, ĩrĩa yarugĩtwo na maciaro ma mbere ma ngano, na igira cia ngano ya mũgethano. Nake Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mĩnengere andũ marĩe.”
43 Muranda wake akati, “Ndingagovera izvi kuvanhu zana sei?” Asi Erisha akapindura akati, “Ipai vanhu vadye. Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, ‘Vachadya vakasiya zvimwe.’”
Nayo ndungata yake ĩkĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ndaahota atĩa kũhe andũ igana rĩmwe mĩgate ĩno?” No Elisha akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mĩnengere andũ marĩe. Nĩgũkorwo Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Mekũrĩa na matigie.’”
44 Ipapo akavaisira pamberi pavo zvokudya, vakadya vakasiya zvimwe, sezvakanga zvataurwa neshoko raJehovha.
Nake akĩnengera andũ, makĩrĩa na ĩgĩtigara, kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova.
