< 2 Wafalme 4 >

1 Mke wa mmoja wa wana wa manabii akamlilia Elisha, akamwambia, “Mtumishi wako, mume wangu, amekufa, nawe unajua alikuwa anamcha Bwana. Lakini sasa yule anayemdai anakuja kuchukua wanangu wawili kama watumwa wake.”
And a woman one from [the] wives of [the] sons of the prophets she cried out to Elisha saying servant your husband my he is dead and you you know that servant your he was fearing Yahweh and the creditor [is] about to come to take [the] two children my for himself to slaves.
2 Elisha akamjibu, “Nitawezaje kukusaidia? Niambie, una nini ndani ya nyumba yako?” Akasema, “Mtumishi wako hana kitu chochote kabisa, isipokuwa mafuta kidogo.”
And he said to her Elisha what? will I do for you tell to me what? [is] there ([belonging] to you *Q(k)*) in the house and she said not [belongs] to maidservant your anything in the house that except a jar of oil.
3 Elisha akasema, “Zunguka kwa majirani zako wote ukaombe vyombo vitupu. Usiombe vichache.
And he said go ask for yourself vessels from the outside from with all (neighbors your *Q(k)*) vessels empty may not you make few.
4 Kisha ingia ndani na ujifungie mlango, wewe na wanao. Mimina mafuta kwenye vyombo vyote, na kila kimoja kinapojaa, kiweke kando.”
And you will go and you will shut the door behind you and behind children your and you will pour out on all the vessels these and the full [one] you will set aside.
5 Yule mjane akaondoka na kujifungia ndani, yeye na wanawe. Wao wakamletea vyombo, naye akaendelea kumimina mafuta.
And she went from with him and she shut the door behind her and behind children her they [were] bringing to her and she ([was] pouring out. *Q(k)*)
6 Vyombo vyote vilipojaa, akamwambia mwanawe, “Niletee chombo kingine.” Lakini mwanawe akajibu, “Hakuna chombo kingine kilichobaki.” Basi mafuta yakakoma kutiririka.
And it was - when were full the vessels and she said to son her bring near! to me still a vessel and he said to her there not still [is] a vessel and it stopped the oil.
7 Yule mwanamke akaenda akamwambia yule mtu wa Mungu, naye mtu wa Mungu akasema, “Nenda ukayauze hayo mafuta ulipe madeni yako. Wewe na wanao mnaweza kuishi kwa kile kinachosalia.”
And she came and she told to [the] man of God and he said go sell the oil and pay (debt your *Q(K)*) and you (and children your *Q(K)*) you will live by the remainder.
8 Siku moja Elisha akaenda Shunemu. Huko kulikuwa na mwanamke mmoja mwenye cheo, ambaye alimsisitiza Elisha aje kula chakula. Kwa hiyo kila mara alipitia pale, akaingia humo ili ale.
And it was the day and he passed on Elisha to Shunem and [was] there a woman great and she urged him to eat food and it was as often as passed by he he turned aside there towards to eat food.
9 Akamwambia mumewe, “Ninajua kwamba huyu mtu ambaye anakuja kwetu mara kwa mara ni mtu mtakatifu wa Mungu.
And she said to husband her here! please I know that [is] a man of God holy he [who] passes by at us continually.
10 Tutengeneze chumba kidogo juu darini na tuweke ndani yake kitanda na meza, kiti na taa kwa ajili yake. Kisha anaweza kukaa humo kila mara akija kwetu.”
Let us make please an upper room of a wall small and let us put for him there a bed and a table and a chair and a lampstand and it will be when comes he to us he will turn aside there towards.
11 Siku moja Elisha alipofika, akapanda chumbani kwake na kulala humo.
And it was the day and he came there towards and he turned aside to the upper room and he lay down there.
12 Akamwambia mtumishi wake Gehazi, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Hivyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mbele yake.
And he said to Gehazi servant his summon the Shunammite [woman] this and he summoned her and she stood before him.
13 Elisha akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwambie huyu mwanamke, ‘Umetaabika sana kwa ajili yetu. Sasa utendewe nini? Je, tunaweza kuzungumza na mfalme au jemadari wa jeshi kwa niaba yako?’” Akajibu, “Mimi ninaishi kwangu miongoni mwa watu wangu.”
And he said to him say please to her here! you have taken care - to us all the care this what? [is] to do for you ¿ [is] there to speak for you to the king or? to [the] commander of the army and she said in among own people my I [am] dwelling.
14 Elisha akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Je, ni nini kinachoweza kufanyika kwa ajili yake?” Gehazi akasema, “Hakika, hana mwana, na mume wake ni mzee.”
And he said and what? [is] to do for her and he said Gehazi indeed a son not [belongs] to her and husband her he is old.
15 Ndipo Elisha akasema, “Mwite huyo mwanamke.” Kwa hiyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mlangoni.
And he said summon her and he summoned her and she stood at the entrance.
16 Elisha akamwambia, “Mwaka ujao, wakati kama huu utabeba mwana mikononi mwako.” Yule mama akapinga, akasema, “La hasha, bwana wangu, usimpotoshe mtumishi wako, ee mtu wa Mungu!”
And he said to the appointed time this about the time living (you *Q(K)*) [will be] embracing a son and she said may [you] not O lord my O man of God may not you tell a lie to maidservant your.
17 Lakini yule mwanamke akapata mimba, na mwaka uliofuata wakati kama ule ule akamzaa mwana, kama vile Elisha alivyokuwa amemwambia.
And she conceived the woman and she gave birth to a son to the appointed time this about the time living which he had spoken to her Elisha.
18 Mtoto akakua, naye siku moja akamwendea baba yake, ambaye alikuwa pamoja na wavunaji.
And he grew up the child and it was the day and he went out to father his to the harvesters.
19 Akamwambia baba yake, “Kichwa changu! Kichwa changu!” Baba yake akamwambia mtumishi, “Mchukue umpeleke kwa mama yake.”
And he said to father his head my - head my and he said to the servant carry him to mother his.
20 Baada ya mtumishi kumbeba na kumpeleka kwa mama yake, mtoto akaketi mapajani mwa mama yake mpaka adhuhuri, kisha akafa.
And he carried him and he brought him to mother his and he sat on knees her until the noontide and he died.
21 Mama akampandisha na kumlaza juu ya kitanda cha yule mtu wa Mungu, kisha akafunga mlango, akatoka nje.
And she went up and she made lie him on [the] bed of [the] man of God and she shut behind him and she went out.
22 Akamwita mume wake na kusema, “Tafadhali mtume mmoja miongoni mwa mtumishi pamoja na punda ili niweze kwenda kwa mtu wa Mungu haraka na kurudi.”
And she called to husband her and she said send! please to me one of the servants and one of the donkeys so I may run to [the] man of God so I may return.
23 Mume wake akamuuliza, “Kwa nini uende kwake leo? Leo si mwandamo wa mwezi, wala si Sabato.” Mwanamke akasema, “Yote ni sawa.”
And he said why? ([are] you *Q(K)*) (going *Q(k)*) to him this day not new moon and not sabbath and she said peace.
24 Akatandika punda na kumwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwongoze huyo punda. Usinipunguzie mwendo mpaka nikuambie.”
And she saddled the donkey and she said to servant her lead on and go may not you hold back me to ride that except I have said to you.
25 Kwa hiyo akaenda na kumfikia huyo mtu wa Mungu katika Mlima Karmeli. Alipomwona kwa mbali, huyo mtu wa Mungu akamwambia mtumishi wake Gehazi, “Tazama, yule Mshunami!
And she went and she came to [the] man of God to [the] mountain of Carmel and it was when saw [the] man of God her from before and he said to Gehazi servant his there! [is] the Shunammite [woman] this.
26 Kimbia ukamlaki, umuulize, ‘Je, wewe hujambo? Mume wako hajambo? Mtoto wako ni mzima?’” Akasema, “Kila kitu ni sawasawa.”
Now run please to meet her and say to her ¿ [does] peace [belong] to you ¿ [does] peace [belong] to husband your ¿ [does] peace [belong] to the child and she said peace.
27 Alipomfikia huyo mtu wa Mungu pale mlimani, akashika miguu yake. Gehazi akaja ili amwondoe, lakini yule mtu wa Mungu akasema, “Mwache! Yuko katika uchungu mkubwa, lakini Bwana amenificha jambo hili na hajaniambia kwa nini.”
And she came to [the] man of God to the mountain and she took hold on feet his and he drew near Gehazi to drive away her and he said [the] man of God refrain to her for self her it is bitter to her and Yahweh he has hidden from me and not he has told to me.
28 Yule mwanamke akasema, “Je, bwana wangu, mimi nilikuomba mwana? Je, sikukuambia, ‘Usiamshe matumaini yangu’?”
And she said ¿ did I ask for a son from with lord my ¿ not did I say not you must deceive me.
29 Elisha akamwambia Gehazi, “Jikaze viuno, chukua fimbo yangu mkononi mwako na ukimbie. Ikiwa utakutana na mtu yeyote, usimsalimie, na mtu yeyote akikusalimu, usimjibu. Ilaze fimbo yangu juu ya uso wa mtoto.”
And he said to Gehazi gird up loins your and take staff my in hand your and go if you will meet anyone not you must bless him and if he will bless you anyone not you must answer him and you will put staff my on [the] face of the lad.
30 Lakini mama mtoto akasema, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo na wewe uishivyo, sitakuacha.” Kwa hiyo Elisha akainuka, akafuatana naye.
And she said [the] mother of the lad [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your if I will leave you and he arose and he went after her.
31 Gehazi akatangulia mbele na kuilaza fimbo juu ya uso wa mtoto, lakini hapakuwa na sauti wala itikio. Hivyo Gehazi akarudi kukutana na Elisha, na kumwambia, “Mtoto hajaamka.”
And Gehazi he passed on before them and he put the staff on [the] face of the lad and there not [was] a sound and there not [was] attention and he went back to meet him and he told to him saying not he has awakened the lad.
32 Elisha alipofika kwenye ile nyumba, mtoto alikuwa amelala juu ya kitanda chake angali amekufa.
And he came Elisha the house towards and there! the lad [was] dead laid on bed his.
33 Akaingia ndani, akajifungia yeye na yule mtoto, akamwomba Bwana.
And he went and he shut the door behind [the] two of them and he prayed to Yahweh.
34 Kisha akapanda kitandani, akalala juu ya yule mtoto, mdomo wake juu ya mdomo wa mtoto, macho yake juu ya macho ya mtoto, mikono yake juu ya mikono ya mtoto. Naye alipojinyoosha juu yake, mwili wa mtoto ukapata joto.
And he went up and he lay on the child and he put mouth his on mouth his and eyes his on eyes his and palms his on (palms his *Q(K)*) and he crouched over him and it became warm [the] flesh of the child.
35 Elisha akajiondoa juu yake na kuanza kutembeatembea ndani ya chumba, kisha akarudi tena kitandani na kujinyoosha tena juu ya mtoto mara nyingine. Mtoto akapiga chafya mara saba, akafungua macho yake.
And he went back and he walked in the house one [time] hither and one [time] hither and he went up and he crouched over him and he sneezed the lad until seven times and he opened the lad eyes his.
36 Elisha akamwita Gehazi na kumwambia, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Naye akafanya hivyo. Yule Mshunami alipokuja, Elisha akasema, “Mchukue mwanao.”
And he summoned Gehazi and he said summon the Shunammite [woman] this and he summoned her and she came to him and he said take up son your.
37 Akaingia ndani, akaanguka miguuni pa Elisha na kusujudu hadi nchi. Kisha akamchukua mwanawe na kutoka nje.
And she came and she fell at feet his and she bowed down [the] ground towards and she took up son her and she went out.
38 Elisha akarudi Gilgali, nako huko kulikuwa na njaa katika eneo lile. Wakati wana wa kundi la manabii walipokuwa wanakutana naye, akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Teleka chungu kikubwa jikoni uwapikie manabii.”
And Elisha he returned Gilgal towards and famine [was] in the land and [the] sons of the prophets [were] sitting before him and he said to servant his put on the pot large and cook cooked food for [the] sons of the prophets.
39 Mmoja wao akatoka kwenda mashambani kuchuma mboga na akapata mtango mwitu. Akachuma matango na kujaza nguo yake aliyoikunja ili kubebea. Aliporudi, akayakatakata na kuyatumbukiza ndani ya chungu, ingawa hakuna aliyejua ni nini.
And he went out one [man] to the field to gather herbs and he found a vine of [the] field and he gathered from it gourds of [the] field [the] fullness of garment his and he came and he sliced [them] into [the] pot of the cooked food for not people knew.
40 Mchuzi ukagawiwa watu, lakini walipoanza kula, wakalia, “Ee mtu wa Mungu, kuna mauti ndani ya chungu.” Nao hawakuweza kula.
And they poured [it] out for [the] men to eat and it was when ate they some of the cooked food and they they cried out and they said death [is] in the pot O man of God and not they were able to eat [it].
41 Elisha akasema, “Leteni unga.” Akauweka ndani ya chungu na kusema, “Wagawie watu ili wale.” Wala hapakuwa na kitu chochote chenye madhara ndani ya chungu.
And he said and fetch flour and he threw [it] into the pot and he said pour [it] out for the people so they may eat and not it was a thing bad in the pot.
42 Akaja mtu kutoka Baal-Shalisha, akimletea mtu wa Mungu mikate ishirini ya shayiri iliyookwa kutokana na nafaka ya kwanza, pamoja na masuke ya nafaka mpya. Elisha akasema, “Wape watu ili wale.”
And a man he came from Baal Shalisha and he brought to [the] man of God bread of first-fruits twenty bread[s] of barley and new corn in sack his and he said give [it] to the people so they may eat.
43 Mtumishi wake akamuuliza, “Nitawezaje kuandaa hii mbele ya watu mia?” Lakini Elisha akajibu, “Wape watu ili wale. Kwa maana hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana: ‘Watakula na kusaza.’”
And he said servant his what? will I put this before a hundred man and he said give [it] to the people so they may eat for thus he says Yahweh they will eat and they will have more than enough.
44 Basi akaiandaa mbele yao ile mikate, wakala na baadhi yake wakasaza, sawasawa na neno la Bwana.
And he put [it] before them and they ate and they had more than enough according to [the] word of Yahweh.
