2 Wafalme 2
1 Hivyo ilipokuja kuhusu, wakati Yahwe alipokuwa akienda kumchukua Eliya kwenda mbinguni kwa uvumi, ambapo Eliya aliondoka pamoja na Elisha kutoka Gigali.
Forsothe it was don, whanne the Lord wolde reise Elie bi a whirlewynd in to heuene, Elie and Elisee yeden fro Galgalis.
2 Eliya akamwambia Elisha, '“kaa hapa, tafadhali, kwa sababu Yahwe alinituma kwa Betheli.'” Elisha akajibu, “Kama Yahwe aishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.'” Hivyo wakashuka chini kulekea Betheli.
And Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me til into Bethel. To whom Elisee seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. And whanne thei hadden come doun to Bethel,
3 Wana wa manabii ambao walikuwa Betheli walikuja kwa Elisha na kumwambia, je unajua kwamba Yahwe atamwondoa bwana wako kuanzia leo?”' Elisha akajibu, “Ndiyo, nalijua hilo, ila msizungumze kuhusu hilo.”'
the sones of prophetis, that weren in Bethel, yeden out to Elisee, and seiden to hym, Whether thou knowist, that the Lord schal take awey thi lord to dai fro thee? Which answeride, And I knowe; be ye stille.
4 Eliya akamwambia, “Elisha, subiri hapa, tafadhali, kwa kuwa Yahwe amenituma niende Yeriko.” Kisha Elisha akajibu, '“Kama Yahwe aishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.” Hivyo wakaenda Yeriko.
Forsothe Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me into Jerico. And he seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. And whanne thei hadden come to Jerico,
5 Kisha wana wa manabii ambao walikuwa Yeriko wakaja kwa Elisha na kumwambia, “'Je unajua kwamba Yahwe atamwondoa bwana wako kutoka kwako leo?” Elisha akajibu, “Ndiyo, nalijua hilo, lakini msilizungumzie hilo.”
the sones of prophetis, that weren in Jerico, neiyiden to Elisee, and seiden to hym, Whether thou knowist, that the Lord schal take awei thi lord to dai fro thee? And he seide, Y knowe; be ye stille.
6 Kisha Eliya akamwambia, '“kaa hapa, tafadhali, kwa kuwa Yahwe amenituma kwenda Yeriko.” Elisha akajibu, “Kama Yahwe ishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.” Hivyo wawili wakaenda mbele.
Forsothe Elie seide to Elisee, Sitte thou here, for the Lord sente me `til to Jordan. Which seide, The Lord lyueth and thi soule lyueth, for Y schal not forsake thee. Therfor bothe yeden togidere;
7 Baadaye watu hamsini wa watoto wa wale manabii wakasimama kuwakabili kwa mbali kidogo wale wawili wakasimama karibu na Yordani.
and fifti men of the sones of prophetis sueden, which also stoden fer euen ayens; sothely thei bothe stoden ouer Jordan.
8 Eliya akachukua vazi lake, akaliviringisha, na kuyapiga maji kwa kutumia lile vazi. Ule mto ukagawanyika katika sehemu mbili hivyo basi wawili hao wakatembea hadi nchi kavu.
And Elie took his mentil, and wlappide it, and smoot the watris; whiche weren departid `into euer ethir part, and bothe yeden bi the drie.
9 Ilitokea, walipokwisha kuvuka, kwamba Eliya akamwambia Elisha, “Niambie unachotaka nifanye kwako kabla sijaondolewa kutoka kwako.” Elisha akajibu, “Naomba sehemu kubwa ya roho yako ije kwangu.
And whanne thei hadden passid, Elie seide to Elisee, Axe thou that, that thou wolt that Y do to thee, bifor that Y be takun awey fro thee. And Elisee seide, Y biseche, that thi double spirit be `maad in me.
10 Eliya akajibu, “Umeomba jambo gumu. Hata hivyo, kama ukiniona wakati nitakapoondolewa kutoka kwako, hii itatokea kwako, lakini kama sivyo, haitatokea.”
Which Elie answeride, Thou axist an hard thing; netheles if thou schalt se me, whanne Y schal be takun awei fro thee, that that thou axidist schal be; sotheli, if thou schalt not se, it schal not be.
11 Ikawa walipokuwa bado wakienda mbele na kuzungumza, gari la kukokotwa na farasi lenye moto na farasi wa moto ikatokea, ambapo iliwatenga wale watu wawili kutoka kila mmoja, na Eliya akaenda juu kwa uvumi wa upepo kwenda mbinguni.
And whanne thei yeden, and spaken goynge, lo! a chare of fier and horsys of fier departiden euer either; and Elie stiede bi a whirlewynd in to heuene.
12 Elisha akaiona akalia kwa sauti, “Baba yangu, baba yangu, gari la kukokotwa na farasi la Israeli na waendesha farasi!'” Hakumwona Eliya tena, na akashikilia nguo zake mwenyewe na kugawanya kwenye vipande viwili.
Forsothe Elise siy, and criede, My fadir! my fadir! the chare of Israel, and the charietere therof. And he siy no more Elie. And he took hise clothis, and to-rente tho in to twei partis.
13 Akachukua vazi la Eliya lililokuwa limemwangukia, na kurudi kusimama kwenye ukingo wa Yordani.
And he reiside the mentil of Elie, that felde doun to hym; and he turnede ayen, and stood ouer the ryuer of Jordan.
14 Akayapiga maji pamoja na lile vazi la Eliya alilokuwa ameliangusha na kusema, “Yahwe yuko wapi, Mungu wa Eliya?'” Wakati alipoyapiga yale maji, yaligawanyika katika pande mbili na Elisha akavuka.
And with the mentil of Elie, that felde doun to hym, he smoot the watris, whiche weren not departid. And he seide, Where is God of Elie also now? And he smoot the watris, and tho weren departid hidur and thidur; and Elisee passide.
15 Wakati hao wana wa manabii ambao walitoka Yeriko walipomuona akikatiza kwao, wakasema, “roho ya Eliya imepumzika kwa Elisha!” Hivyo wakaja kuonana naye, na wakasujudu aridhini mbele yake.
Sotheli the sones of prophetis, that weren in Jerico euene ayens, siyen, and seiden, The spirit of Elie restide on Elisee. And thei camen in to the meetyng of hym, and worschipiden hym lowli to erthe.
16 Wakamwambia, “Ona sasa, miongoni mwa watumishi wako kuna watu hamsini hodari. Tunakuomba Waache waende, na kumtafuta bwana wako, endapo huyo Roho wa Yahwe alipomchukua juu na kumtupa juu ya mlima mmoja au kwenye bonde moja.” Elisha akajibu, “Hapana, msiwatume.”
And thei seiden to hym, Lo! with thi seruauntis ben fifti stronge men, that moun go, and seke thi lord, lest perauenture the Spirit of the Lord hath take hym, and hath cast forth hym in oon of the hillis, ethir in oon of the valeys.
17 Lakini walimsihi Elisha hadi akaona aibu, akasema, “Watume.”Ndipo wakawatuma watu hamsini, na wakatafuta kwa mda wa siku tatu, lakini hawakumpata.
Which seide, `Nyle ye sende. And thei constreyneden hym, til he assentide to hem, and seide, Sende ye. And thei senten fifti men; and whanne thei hadden souyt bi thre daies, thei founden not.
18 Wakarudi kwa Elisha, wakati alipokuwa bado yuko Yeriko, na akasema, “Je sikusema, 'msiende'?”
And thei turneden ayen to hym; and he dwelide in Jerico. And he seide to hem, Whether Y seide not to you, Nyle ye sende?
19 Watu wa mjini wakamwambia Elisha, “Ona, tunakuomba, hali ya mjini hapa ni pazuri, kama bwana wangu awezavyo kuona, lakini maji ni mabaya na hiyo nchi haiwezi kuzaa matunda.”
Therfor the men of the citee seiden to Elisee, Lo! the dwellyng of this cite is ful good, as thou thi silf, lord, seest; but the watris ben ful yuele, and the lond is bareyn.
20 Elisha akajibu, “Nileteeni bakuli jipya na muweke chumvi ndani ya hilo bakuli,” hivyo wakamletea.
And he seide, Brynge ye to me a newe vessel, and sende ye salt in to it. And whanne thei hadden brouyt it,
21 Elisha akaenda hadi kwenye chemichemi za maji na kutupia chumvi ndani; halafu akasema, “Yahwe asema hivi, 'Nimeyaponya haya maji. Kuanzia mda huu, hakutakuwa na kifo au nchi isiyozaa matunda.
he yede out to the welle of watris, and sente salt in to it, and seide, The Lord seith these thingis, Y haue helid these watris, and nethir deeth, nether bareynesse, schal be more in tho.
22 “Hivyo hayo maji yakaponya hata leo, kwa lile neno ambalo Elisha aliongea.
Therfor the watris weren heelid til in to this dai, bi the word of Elisee, which he spak.
23 Ndipo Elisha akapanda kutoka pale mpaka Betheli. Naye alipokuwa akienda hadi kwenye barabara, wakatokea vijana nje ya mji na kumtania, wakamwambia, “Panda juu, wewe mwenye kipara! Panda juu, wewe mwenye kipara!”
Forsothe Elisee stiede fro thennus in to Bethel; and whanne he stiede bi the weie, litle children yeden out of the citee, and scorneden hym, and seiden, Stie, thou ballard! stie, thou ballard!
24 Elisha alipotazama nyuma yake na kuwaona; alimwambia Yahwe awalaani. Ndipo dubu wa kike wawili wakatokea kichakani na kuwajeruhi vijana arobaini na mbili.
And whanne he hadde biholde, he siy hem, and curside hem in the name of the Lord. And twey beeris yeden out of the forest, and to-rente fourti children of hem.
25 Ndipo Elisha alipoondoka pale na kuelekea Mlima Karmeli, na kutoka huko alirudi samaria.
Sotheli Elisee wente fro thennus in to the hil of Carmele, and fro thennus he turnede `ayen to Samarie.
