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.”

Pea ko eni, naʻe tangi kalanga ha fefine ko e tokotaha ʻi he ngaahi uaifi ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita, kia ʻIlaisa, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo pekia ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko hoku husepāniti; pea ʻoku ke ʻilo naʻe manavahē ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kia Sihova: pea kuo haʻu ʻae tangata ʻeke totongi ke ne ʻave mo ia ʻa ʻeku ongo tama ke na tamaioʻeiki kiate ia.”

2 Elisha akamjibu, “Nitawezaje kukusaidia? Niambie, una nini ndani ya nyumba yako?” Akasema, “Mtumishi wako hana kitu chochote kabisa, isipokuwa mafuta kidogo.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa kiate ia, “Ko e hā ha meʻa te u fai maʻau? Fakahā mai pe ko e hā ha meʻa ʻoku ke maʻu ʻi fale?” Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai maʻu ʻe hoʻo kaunanga ha meʻa ʻi fale, ka ko e hina pe taha ʻoe lolo.”

3 Elisha akasema, “Zunguka kwa majirani zako wote ukaombe vyombo vitupu. Usiombe vichache.

Pea toki pehē ʻe ia, “Ke ke ʻalu, mo kole mai ha ngaahi ipu mei ho kāinga kotoa pē, ʻae ngaahi ngeʻesi ipu; pea ʻoua naʻa kole fakasiʻisiʻi pe.

4 Kisha ingia ndani na ujifungie mlango, wewe na wanao. Mimina mafuta kwenye vyombo vyote, na kila kimoja kinapojaa, kiweke kando.”

Pea ʻoka ke ka toe hū mai, te ke tāpuni ʻae matapā kiate koe, pea mo hoʻo ongotama, pea te ke lilingi ki he ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ko ia, pea te ke tuku kehe ʻaia ʻoku fakafonu.”

5 Yule mjane akaondoka na kujifungia ndani, yeye na wanawe. Wao wakamletea vyombo, naye akaendelea kumimina mafuta.

Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu atu meiate ia, mo ne tāpuni ʻae matapā kiate ia mo ʻene ongotama, ʻaia naʻe fetuku mai [ʻae ngaahi ipu ]kiate ia; ka naʻe lilingi atu ʻe ia.

6 Vyombo vyote vilipojaa, akamwambia mwanawe, “Niletee chombo kingine.” Lakini mwanawe akajibu, “Hakuna chombo kingine kilichobaki.” Basi mafuta yakakoma kutiririka.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene pito ʻae ngaahi ipu, naʻa ne pehēange ki heʻene tama, “Toe ʻomi mo ha ipu ʻe taha.” Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻOku ʻikai toe ha taha.” Pea naʻe tuku ʻae tafe ʻoe lolo.

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.”

Pea naʻa ne toki haʻu ʻo fakahā ia ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻAlu, ʻo fakatau ʻae lolo, pea ʻatu ʻae totongi kiate ia ʻoku ʻeke, pea ko hono toe ke ke moʻui ai koe pea mo hoʻo fānau.”

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.

Pea ko e ʻaho ʻe taha naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa ʻIlaisa ki Sunemi, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ha fefine koloaʻia; pea naʻa ne taʻofi ia ke ne kai ha meʻa. Pea naʻe pehē, ʻilonga pe ʻa ʻene ʻalu atu ai naʻa ne foki atu ke kai mā ʻi ai.

9 Akamwambia mumewe, “Ninajua kwamba huyu mtu ambaye anakuja kwetu mara kwa mara ni mtu mtakatifu wa Mungu.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine ki hono husepāniti, “Vakai mai, ʻoku ou ʻilo ko e tangata māʻoniʻoni eni ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku afe mai kiate kitaua maʻuaipē.

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.”

Ke ta ngaohi ha kihiʻi potu fale, ʻi he funga ʻā maka; pea ke ta tuku maʻana ha mohenga ʻi ai, mo ha palepale, mo ha nofoʻa, mo ha tuʻunga maama: pea ʻe pehē, ʻoka haʻu ia kiate kitaua, te ne nofo ki ai.”

11 Siku moja Elisha alipofika, akapanda chumbani kwake na kulala humo.

Pea naʻe hoko ki he ʻaho ʻe taha, naʻa ne haʻu ki ai, pea naʻa ne afe atu ki he potu fale, mo tokoto ai.

12 Akamwambia mtumishi wake Gehazi, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Hivyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mbele yake.

Pea naʻa ne pehē ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko Kehesi, “Ui mai ʻae fefine Sunemi ni.” Pea hili ʻa ʻene ui ki ai naʻa ne tuʻu mai ʻi hono ʻao.

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.”

Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke fakahā ni kiate ia, Vakai, kuo ke tokanga kiate kimaua ʻi he tokanga lahi ni; ka ko e hā ha meʻa ʻe fai maʻau? Te ke loto ke fai ha lea maʻau ki he tuʻi, pe ki he ʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻOku ou nofo pe ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai ʻoʻoku.”

14 Elisha akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Je, ni nini kinachoweza kufanyika kwa ajili yake?” Gehazi akasema, “Hakika, hana mwana, na mume wake ni mzee.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ka kuo pehē, pea ko e hā ha meʻa ʻe fai maʻana?” Pea naʻe pehē atu ʻe Kehesi, “Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻikai haʻane tamasiʻi, pea kuo motuʻa ʻa hono husepāniti.”

15 Ndipo Elisha akasema, “Mwite huyo mwanamke.” Kwa hiyo akamwita, naye akaja akasimama mlangoni.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ui atu kiate ia.” Pea ʻosi ʻa ʻene ui ia, naʻa ne tuʻu ʻi he hūʻanga matapā.

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!”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻI he faʻahitaʻu ko eni, ʻo fakatatau mo hono kuonga, te ke fāʻufua ha tama.” Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOua, ʻa hoku ʻeiki, ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke loi ki hoʻo kaunanga.”

17 Lakini yule mwanamke akapata mimba, na mwaka uliofuata wakati kama ule ule akamzaa mwana, kama vile Elisha alivyokuwa amemwambia.

Pea naʻe tuituʻia ʻae fefine, pea ne fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama ʻi he kuonga ko ia naʻe fakahā kiate ia ʻe ʻIlaisa, ʻo fakatatau mo e kuonga ʻoe feitama.

18 Mtoto akakua, naye siku moja akamwendea baba yake, ambaye alikuwa pamoja na wavunaji.

Pea ʻi heʻene tupu ke lahi ʻae tamasiʻi, naʻe hoko ki he ʻaho ʻe taha, naʻe ʻalu ai ia ki heʻene tamai mo e kau tuʻusi ʻoe ututaʻu.

19 Akamwambia baba yake, “Kichwa changu! Kichwa changu!” Baba yake akamwambia mtumishi, “Mchukue umpeleke kwa mama yake.”

Pea naʻa ne pehē ki heʻene tamai, “ʻA hoku ʻulu, ʻa hoku ʻulu!” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki ha tama talavou, “Fua ia ʻo ʻave ki heʻene faʻē.”

20 Baada ya mtumishi kumbeba na kumpeleka kwa mama yake, mtoto akaketi mapajani mwa mama yake mpaka adhuhuri, kisha akafa.

Pea ʻi heʻene ʻave ia, mo ʻomi ki heʻene faʻē, naʻa ne nofo ki hono funga tui ʻo aʻu ki he hoʻatāmālie, pea pekia.

21 Mama akampandisha na kumlaza juu ya kitanda cha yule mtu wa Mungu, kisha akafunga mlango, akatoka nje.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ia, ʻo ne fakatokoto ia ki he mohenga ʻoe tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, mo ne tāpuni ʻae matapā kiate ia, pea ʻalu ia kituʻa.

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.”

Pea naʻa ne ui atu ki hono husepāniti, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou kole, ke ke fekau mai ha taha ʻoe kau talavou, mo ha ʻasi ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke u lele ai ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, mo toe haʻu.”

23 Mume wake akamuuliza, “Kwa nini uende kwake leo? Leo si mwandamo wa mwezi, wala si Sabato.” Mwanamke akasema, “Yote ni sawa.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā te ke ʻalu ai kiate ia he ʻaho ni? ʻOku ʻikai ko e māhina foʻou, pe ko e ʻaho tapu.” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “Fiemālie pe.”

24 Akatandika punda na kumwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwongoze huyo punda. Usinipunguzie mwendo mpaka nikuambie.”

Pea naʻa ne toki ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, mo ne pehē ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, “Fai vave, mo ʻalu atu pe, ʻoua naʻa ke fakatuotuai ʻae ʻalu [ʻae manu, ]ka ʻi heʻeku fekau pe ʻaʻaku.”

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!

Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu mo ne hoko atu ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he moʻunga ko Kameli. Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata kei mamaʻo ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua kiate ia, naʻa ne pehē kia Kehesi ko ʻene tamaioʻeiki, “Vakai, ko ʻena ʻae fefine Sunemi:

26 Kimbia ukamlaki, umuulize, ‘Je, wewe hujambo? Mume wako hajambo? Mtoto wako ni mzima?’” Akasema, “Kila kitu ni sawasawa.”

Lele leva, pea fakafetaulaki kiate ia, mo ke pehē ki ai, ʻOku ke lelei pe koe? ʻOku lelei pe ʻa ho husepāniti? ʻOku lelei pe mo hoʻo tamasiʻi? pea naʻe tali ʻe ia [ʻo pehē], ʻOku lelei pe.”

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.”

Pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he moʻunga, naʻa ne puke ia ʻi hono vaʻe: ka naʻe fakaofi mai ʻa Kehesi ke ne teketekeʻi atu ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Tuku ai pe ia; he kuo mamahi ʻa hono loto ʻiate ia: pea kuo fakafufū ia meiate au ʻe Sihova ʻo ne taʻefakahā ia kiate au.”

28 Yule mwanamke akasema, “Je, bwana wangu, mimi nilikuomba mwana? Je, sikukuambia, ‘Usiamshe matumaini yangu’?”

Pea toki pehē ʻe he fefine, “He naʻaku holi ki ha tama mei hoku ʻeiki? ʻIkai naʻaku pehē, Ke ʻoua naʻa kākaaʻi au?”

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.”

Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe ia kia Kehesi, “ʻAi ho noʻotangavala, pea toʻo ʻa hoku tokotoko ʻi ho nima, pea ʻalu ʻi ho hala; kapau te mo fetaulaki mo ha tangata, ʻoua naʻa fetapa mo ia; pea kapau ʻe fetapa mai ha tokotaha kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke toe leaange ki ai: pea ke ʻai ʻa hoku tokotoko ki he mata ʻoe tamasiʻi.”

30 Lakini mama mtoto akasema, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo na wewe uishivyo, sitakuacha.” Kwa hiyo Elisha akainuka, akafuatana naye.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he faʻē ʻae tamasiʻi, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea ʻi he moʻui mo ho laumālie, ʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki koe.” Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake ʻo muimui ʻiate ia.

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.”

Pea naʻe muʻomuʻa atu ʻa Kehesi ʻi hona ʻao, mo ne hilifaki ʻae tokotoko ki he mata ʻoe tamasiʻi; ka naʻe ʻikai ke lea, pe ongoʻi. Ko ia naʻa ne toe ʻalu ke fetaulaki kiate ia, mo ne fakahā ki ai, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ke fakaʻā ʻae tamasiʻi.”

32 Elisha alipofika kwenye ile nyumba, mtoto alikuwa amelala juu ya kitanda chake angali amekufa.

Pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai ʻa ʻIlaisa ki he fale, vakai, naʻe mate ʻae tamasiʻi, pea naʻe fakatokoto ʻi hono mohenga.

33 Akaingia ndani, akajifungia yeye na yule mtoto, akamwomba Bwana.

Ko ia naʻa ne hū ai ki loto [fale], mo ne tāpuni ʻae matapā ke na toko ua pe, pea naʻa ne lotu kia Sihova.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake, mo ne tokoto hifo ki he tamasiʻi, ʻo ne ʻai ʻa hono ngutu ʻoʻona ki hono ngutu, mo hono mata ki hono mata, mo hono nima ki hono nima; pea naʻa ne fakatokoto ia ki he tamasiʻi; pea naʻe fakaʻaʻau ke mafana ʻae sino ʻoe tamasiʻi.

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.

Pea naʻa ne toe haʻu, mo ne ʻeveʻeva feʻaluʻaki pe ʻi he fale; pea ne ʻalu hake, mo ne fakatokoto ia kiate ia: pea naʻe mafatua ʻae tamasiʻi ʻo liunga fitu, pea naʻe fakaava ʻe he tamasiʻi ʻa hono mata.

36 Elisha akamwita Gehazi na kumwambia, “Mwite huyo Mshunami.” Naye akafanya hivyo. Yule Mshunami alipokuja, Elisha akasema, “Mchukue mwanao.”

Pea naʻa ne ui kia Kehesi, ʻo ne pehē, “Ui mai ʻa e [fefine ]Sunemi.” Pea naʻa ne ui ki ai. Pea ʻi heʻene hū mai kiate ia, naʻa ne pehē ʻe ia, “Toʻo hake ʻa hoʻo tama.”

37 Akaingia ndani, akaanguka miguuni pa Elisha na kusujudu hadi nchi. Kisha akamchukua mwanawe na kutoka nje.

Pea naʻa ne toki hū ange, mo tō hifo ki hono vaʻe, mo ne punou hifo ki he kelekele, mo ne toʻo hake ʻa ʻene tama, ʻo ʻalu atu kituʻa.

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.”

Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻa ʻIlaisa ki Kilikali: pea naʻe ai ʻae honge ʻi he fonua; pea naʻe nofo ʻi hono ʻao ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita: pea naʻa ne pehē ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki, Fokotuʻu ʻae kulo lahi, pea haka ha meʻakai maʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita.

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.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ha tokotaha ki he ngoue ke tānaki ʻae louʻakau, pea naʻa ne ʻilo ai ʻae vaine tupu vao, pea naʻa ne tānaki mei ai ʻae ngaahi fua ke pito ai hono kofu, pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻo hifi ia ki he kulo ʻoe haka lū: he naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo hono anga.

40 Mchuzi ukagawiwa watu, lakini walipoanza kula, wakalia, “Ee mtu wa Mungu, kuna mauti ndani ya chungu.” Nao hawakuweza kula.

Ko ia naʻa nau lilingi atu koeʻuhi ke kai ʻe he kau tangata. Pea ʻiloange, lolotonga ʻenau kai ʻae lū, naʻa nau ui atu, ʻo pehē, “ʻE tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi he kulo ʻae mate.” Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa kai mei ai.

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.

Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOmi ha mahoaʻa.” Pea naʻa ne ʻai ia ki he kulo; pea naʻa ne pehē, “Lilingi atu maʻae kakai, koeʻuhi ke nau kai.” Pea tā naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa kovi ʻi he kulo.

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.”

Pea naʻe haʻu ha tangata mei Pealisalisa, ʻo ne ʻomi ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻae mā ʻoe ʻuluaki fua, ko e foʻi mā paʻale ʻe uofulu, mo e ngaahi fuhinga koane mo hono kafukafu. Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻAtu ia ki he kakai ke nau kai ia.”

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.’”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene tamaioʻeiki, “Ko e hā, te u ʻai atu eni koā ʻi he ʻao ʻo ha kau tangata ʻe toko teau?” Pea naʻe toe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻAtu ki he kakai, ke nau kai ai: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Te nau kai ai pea ʻe toe pe.”

44 Basi akaiandaa mbele yao ile mikate, wakala na baadhi yake wakasaza, sawasawa na neno la Bwana.

Pea pehē, naʻa ne tuku ia ki honau ʻao, pea naʻa nau kai, pea naʻe toe pe, ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova.
