2 Wafalme 4

1 Ndipo mke wa mmoja wa watoto wa manbii alipokuja kwa Elisha akilia, akisema, “Mtumishi wako mme wangu amukufa, na unajua kwamba mtumishi wako alikuwa anamcha Yahwe. Basi aliyemuwia amekuja kuwachukua watoto wangu wawili kwenda kuwa watumwa.”

καὶ γυνὴ μία ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν τῶν προφητῶν ἐβόα πρὸς Ελισαιε λέγουσα ὁ δοῦλός σου ὁ ἀνήρ μου ἀπέθανεν καὶ σὺ ἔγνως ὅτι δοῦλος ἦν φοβούμενος τὸν κύριον καὶ ὁ δανιστὴς ἦλθεν λαβεῖν τοὺς δύο υἱούς μου ἑαυτῷ εἰς δούλους

2 Hivyo Elisha akamwambia, “Nikusaidie nini? Niambie una nini kwenye nyumba yako?” Akamwambia “Mtumishi wako hana kitu kwenye nyumba, isipokuwa chupa ya mafuta.”

καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε τί ποιήσω σοι ἀνάγγειλόν μοι τί ἐστίν σοι ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ ἡ δὲ εἶπεν οὐκ ἔστιν τῇ δούλῃ σου οὐθὲν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ ὅτι ἀλλ’ ἢ ὃ ἀλείψομαι ἔλαιον

3 Kisha Elisha akasema, “Nenda kaazime vyombo kwa majirani zako, vyombo vitupu. Azima vyombo vingi uwezavyo.

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτήν δεῦρο αἴτησον σαυτῇ σκεύη ἔξωθεν παρὰ πάντων τῶν γειτόνων σου σκεύη κενά μὴ ὀλιγώσῃς

4 Kisha lazima uende ndani na kujifungia mlango wewe na watoto wako, na kumiminia mafuta vyombo vyote; vile vilivyojaa ukavitenge.”

καὶ εἰσελεύσῃ καὶ ἀποκλείσεις τὴν θύραν κατὰ σοῦ καὶ κατὰ τῶν υἱῶν σου καὶ ἀποχεεῖς εἰς τὰ σκεύη ταῦτα καὶ τὸ πληρωθὲν ἀρεῖς

5 Basi akamuacha Elisha na kujifungia mlango yeye na watoto wake. Wakavileta vile vyombo kwake, na akivijaza kwa mafuta.

καὶ ἀπῆλθεν παρ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησεν οὕτως καὶ ἀπέκλεισεν τὴν θύραν κατ’ αὐτῆς καὶ κατὰ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτῆς αὐτοὶ προσήγγιζον πρὸς αὐτήν καὶ αὐτὴ ἐπέχεεν

6 Ikawa vyombo vilipojaa, akamwambia mtoto wake, “Niletee chombo kingine.” Ila akamwambia, “Hakuna vyombo vingine.” Kisha mafuta yakakoma kutoka.

ἕως ἐπλήσθησαν τὰ σκεύη καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῆς ἐγγίσατε ἔτι πρός με σκεῦος καὶ εἶπον αὐτῇ οὐκ ἔστιν ἔτι σκεῦος καὶ ἔστη τὸ ἔλαιον

7 Ndipo akaja na kumwambia mtu wa Mungu. Akasema, “Nenda kauze mafuta; lipa deni lako, na yatakayobaki waachie watoto wako.”

καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε δεῦρο καὶ ἀπόδου τὸ ἔλαιον καὶ ἀποτείσεις τοὺς τόκους σου καὶ σὺ καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου ζήσεσθε ἐν τῷ ἐπιλοίπῳ ἐλαίῳ

8 Siku moja Elisha alitembea Shunemu ambapo mwanamke muhimu aliishi; alimsihi ale chakula pamoja naye. Ikawa alipopita mara nyingi, angeweza kusimama pale na kula.

καὶ ἐγένετο ἡμέρα καὶ διέβη Ελισαιε εἰς Σουμαν καὶ ἐκεῖ γυνὴ μεγάλη καὶ ἐκράτησεν αὐτὸν φαγεῖν ἄρτον καὶ ἐγένετο ἀφ’ ἱκανοῦ τοῦ εἰσπορεύεσθαι αὐτὸν ἐξέκλινεν τοῦ ἐκεῖ φαγεῖν

9 Huyo mwanamke akamwambia mme wake, “Ona, sasa nadhani kwamba huyu ni mtu mtakatifu wa Mungu ambaye hupita siku zote.

καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ πρὸς τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς ἰδοὺ δὴ ἔγνων ὅτι ἄνθρωπος τοῦ θεοῦ ἅγιος οὗτος διαπορεύεται ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς διὰ παντός

10 Ngoja tutengeneze chumba kidogo kwenye paa kwa ajili ya Elisha, na tuweke kitanda juu ya hicho chumba, meza, na taa. Kisha atakapokuwa anakuja kwetu, atakuwa anakaa hapo.”

ποιήσωμεν δὴ αὐτῷ ὑπερῷον τόπον μικρὸν καὶ θῶμεν αὐτῷ ἐκεῖ κλίνην καὶ τράπεζαν καὶ δίφρον καὶ λυχνίαν καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι πρὸς ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐκκλινεῖ ἐκεῖ

11 Ikawa siku moja akaja tena kwamba Elisha akasimama pale, akakaa kwenye hicho chumba na kupumzika hapo.

καὶ ἐγένετο ἡμέρα καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐκεῖ καὶ ἐξέκλινεν εἰς τὸ ὑπερῷον καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐκεῖ

12 Elisha akamwambia Gehazi mtumishi wake, “Mwite huyu Mshunami.” Wakati alipomuita, alisimama mbele yake.

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Γιεζι τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ κάλεσόν μοι τὴν Σωμανῖτιν ταύτην καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτήν καὶ ἔστη ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ

13 Elisha akamwambia, “Mwambie, 'Umetusumbukia kwa kutujali. Nini kifanyike kwa ajili yako? Tunaweza kukuombea kwa mfalme au amri jeshi?”” Akajibu, “Ninaishi miongoni mwa watu wangu.”

καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ εἰπὸν δὴ πρὸς αὐτήν ἰδοὺ ἐξέστησας ἡμῖν πᾶσαν τὴν ἔκστασιν ταύτην τί δεῖ ποιῆσαί σοι εἰ ἔστιν λόγος σοι πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα ἢ πρὸς τὸν ἄρχοντα τῆς δυνάμεως ἡ δὲ εἶπεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ μου ἐγώ εἰμι οἰκῶ

14 Kisha Elisha akajibu, “Tumfanyie nini kwa ajili yake, sasa?” Gehazi akajibu, “Kweli hana mtoto, na mume wake ni

καὶ εἶπεν τί δεῖ ποιῆσαι αὐτῇ καὶ εἶπεν Γιεζι τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ καὶ μάλα υἱὸς οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῇ καὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς πρεσβύτης

15 mzee.” Hivyo Elisha akajibu, “Mwite.” Wakati alipomuita, akasimama kwenye mlango.

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτήν καὶ ἔστη παρὰ τὴν θύραν

16 Elisha akasema, “Katika kipindi kama hiki mwakani, katika kipindi cha mwaka mmoja, utakuwa ukimkumbatia mtoto.” Akasema “Hapana, bwana wangu na mtu wa Mungu, usidanganye kwa mtumishi wako.”

καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε πρὸς αὐτήν εἰς τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον ὡς ἡ ὥρα ζῶσα σὺ περιειληφυῖα υἱόν ἡ δὲ εἶπεν μή κύριέ μου μὴ διαψεύσῃ τὴν δούλην σου

17 Lakini yule mwanamke akabeba mimba na kujifungua mtoto wakume kipindi hicho hicho katika mwaka uliofuata, kama Elisha alivyokuwa amemwambia.

καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβεν ἡ γυνὴ καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱὸν εἰς τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον ὡς ἡ ὥρα ζῶσα ὡς ἐλάλησεν πρὸς αὐτὴν Ελισαιε

18 Wakati mtoto alipokuwa mkubwa, akaenda kwa baba yake siku moja, ambaye alikuwa na watu wanaovuna.

καὶ ἡδρύνθη τὸ παιδάριον καὶ ἐγένετο ἡνίκα ἐξῆλθεν τὸ παιδάριον πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ πρὸς τοὺς θερίζοντας

19 Akamwambia baba yake, “Kichwa changu, kichwa changu.” Baba yake akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Mbebe mpeleke kwa mama yake.”

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ τὴν κεφαλήν μου τὴν κεφαλήν μου καὶ εἶπεν τῷ παιδαρίῳ ἆρον αὐτὸν πρὸς τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ

20 Wakati mtumishi alipombeba kumrudisha kwa mama yake, yule mtoto alikaa kwenye magoti yake hadi mchana na baada ya hapo mtoto alikufa.

καὶ ἦρεν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐπὶ τῶν γονάτων αὐτῆς ἕως μεσημβρίας καὶ ἀπέθανεν

21 Hivyo yule mwanamke akambeba na kumlaza kwenye kile kitanda cha mtu wa Mungu, akafunga mlango, na kutoka nje.

καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐκοίμισεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὴν κλίνην τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἀπέκλεισεν κατ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆλθεν

22 Akamwita mume wake, na kusema, “Tafadhali nitumie mmoja wa watumishi wako na moja ya punda wako ili niweze kuwahi kwa mtu wa Mungu ili niweze kurudi.”

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν ἀπόστειλον δή μοι ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων καὶ μίαν τῶν ὄνων καὶ δραμοῦμαι ἕως τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐπιστρέψω

23 Mume wake akasema, “Kwa nini unataka kwenda kwake leo? Sio mwezi mpya wala Sabato.” alijibu, “Itakuwa sawa.”

καὶ εἶπεν τί ὅτι σὺ πορεύῃ πρὸς αὐτὸν σήμερον οὐ νεομηνία οὐδὲ σάββατον ἡ δὲ εἶπεν εἰρήνη

24 Ndipo akatandika kwenye punda na kumwambia mtumishi wake, “Mwendeshe haraka; usinipunguzie mwendo hadi nitakapokwambia ufanye hivyo.”

καὶ ἐπέσαξεν τὴν ὄνον καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον αὐτῆς ἄγε πορεύου μὴ ἐπίσχῃς μοι τοῦ ἐπιβῆναι ὅτι ἐὰν εἴπω σοι

25 Hivyo alienda na kuja na mtu wa Mungu katika mlima Karmeli. Basi wakati mtu wa Mungu alipomuona kwa mbali, akamwambia Gehazi mtumishi wake, “Tazama, mwanamke Mshunami anakuja.

δεῦρο καὶ πορεύσῃ καὶ ἐλεύσῃ πρὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ θεοῦ εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ Καρμήλιον καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδεν Ελισαιε ἐρχομένην αὐτήν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Γιεζι τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ δὴ ἡ Σωμανῖτις ἐκείνη

26 Tafadhali mkimbilie na umwambie, 'Hamjambo kwako pamoja na mume wako na mtoto wako?” Akajibu, “Hawajambo.”

νῦν δράμε εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτῆς καὶ ἐρεῖς εἰ εἰρήνη σοι εἰ εἰρήνη τῷ ἀνδρί σου εἰ εἰρήνη τῷ παιδαρίῳ ἡ δὲ εἶπεν Εἰρήνη

27 Baada ya kufika kwa huyo mtu wa Mungu katika mlima, alimkumbatia miguu yake. Gehazi akaja karibu ili kumuondoa lakini mtu wa Mungu akasema, “Muache, kwa kuwa amefadhaika sana. na Yahwe amenificha tatizo kwangu, na hajanambia kitu.”

καὶ ἦλθεν πρὸς Ελισαιε εἰς τὸ ὄρος καὶ ἐπελάβετο τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤγγισεν Γιεζι ἀπώσασθαι αὐτήν καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε ἄφες αὐτήν ὅτι ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῆς κατώδυνος αὐτῇ καὶ κύριος ἀπέκρυψεν ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἀνήγγειλέν μοι

28 Ndipo aksema, “Nilikuuliza mtoto wako, bwana wangu? Sikusema, 'Usinifiche'?

ἡ δὲ εἶπεν μὴ ᾐτησάμην υἱὸν παρὰ τοῦ κυρίου μου οὐκ εἶπα οὐ πλανήσεις μετ’ ἐμοῦ

29 Ndipo Elisha akamwambia Geahazi, “Vaa kwa ajili ya safari na uchukue fimbo yangu mkononi mwako. Nenda kwake. Kama ukimkuta mtu yeyote, usimsalimie, na kama mtu yeyote akikusalimia, usimjibu. Laza fimbo yangu kwenye uso wa mtoto.

καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε τῷ Γιεζι ζῶσαι τὴν ὀσφύν σου καὶ λαβὲ τὴν βακτηρίαν μου ἐν τῇ χειρί σου καὶ δεῦρο ὅτι ἐὰν εὕρῃς ἄνδρα οὐκ εὐλογήσεις αὐτόν καὶ ἐὰν εὐλογήσῃ σε ἀνήρ οὐκ ἀποκριθήσῃ αὐτῷ καὶ ἐπιθήσεις τὴν βακτηρίαν μου ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ παιδαρίου

30 Lakini mama yake na huyo mtoto akasema, “Kama Yahwe aishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.” Hivyo Elisha akainuka na kumfuata.

καὶ εἶπεν ἡ μήτηρ τοῦ παιδαρίου ζῇ κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου εἰ ἐγκαταλείψω σε καὶ ἀνέστη Ελισαιε καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω αὐτῆς

31 Gehazi akawatangulia na kulaza ile fimbo kwneye uso wa yule mtoto, lakini yule mtoto hakuongea wala kusikia. Hivyo baada ya hapo Gehazi akarudi kuonana na Elisha na kumwambia akisema, “Mtoto hakuamka.”

καὶ Γιεζι διῆλθεν ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπέθηκεν τὴν βακτηρίαν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τοῦ παιδαρίου καὶ οὐκ ἦν φωνὴ καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἀκρόασις καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ λέγων οὐκ ἠγέρθη τὸ παιδάριον

32 Ndipo Elisha alipofika kwenye ile nyumba, yule mtoto alikuwa amekufa na alikuwa bado yupo kwenye kitanda.

καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ελισαιε εἰς τὸν οἶκον καὶ ἰδοὺ τὸ παιδάριον τεθνηκὸς κεκοιμισμένον ἐπὶ τὴν κλίνην αὐτοῦ

33 Hivyo Elisha aliingia ndani na kufunga malango yeye mwenyewe na yule mtoto na kuomba kwa Yahwe.

καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ελισαιε εἰς τὸν οἶκον καὶ ἀπέκλεισεν τὴν θύραν κατὰ τῶν δύο ἑαυτῶν καὶ προσηύξατο πρὸς κύριον

34 Alipanda juu na kulala juu ya yule mtoto; aliweka mdomo wake kwenye mdomo wake, macho yake kweneye macho yake, na mikono yake kwenye mikono yake. Akajinyoosha yeye mwenyewe kwa yule kijna, na mwili wa yule mtoto ukaanza kupata joto.

καὶ ἀνέβη καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐπὶ τὸ παιδάριον καὶ ἔθηκεν τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ καὶ διέκαμψεν ἐπ’ αὐτόν καὶ διεθερμάνθη ἡ σὰρξ τοῦ παιδαρίου

35 Baada ya hapo Elisha aliinuka na kuanza kutembea kuzunguka kile chumba na kurudi tena juu na kujinyoosha mwenyewe kwa yule kijana. Yule kijana alipiga chafya mara saba na kisha akafungua macho yake!

καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν καὶ ἀνέβη καὶ συνέκαμψεν ἐπὶ τὸ παιδάριον ἕως ἑπτάκις καὶ ἤνοιξεν τὸ παιδάριον τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ

36 Hivyo Elisha akamwita Gehazi na kumwambia, “Mwite yule Mshunami!” Hivyo akamwita, na wakati alipofika kwenye kile chumba, Elisha akasema, “Mchukue mtoto wako.”

καὶ ἐξεβόησεν Ελισαιε πρὸς Γιεζι καὶ εἶπεν κάλεσον τὴν Σωμανῖτιν ταύτην καὶ ἐκάλεσεν καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε λαβὲ τὸν υἱόν σου

37 Kisha akainamisha uso wake chini kwenye miguu yake na kusujudu, na kisha kumchukua mtoto wake na kuondoka.

καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἡ γυνὴ καὶ ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ προσεκύνησεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς καὶ ἐξῆλθεν

38 Kisha Elisha akarudi tena Gilgali. Kulikuwa na njaa katika nchi, na wana wa manabii walikuwa wamekaa mbele yake. Akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Weka sufuria kubwa kwenye moto na pika kwa ajili ya watoto wa manabii.”

καὶ Ελισαιε ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Γαλγαλα καὶ ὁ λιμὸς ἐν τῇ γῇ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν προφητῶν ἐκάθηντο ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε τῷ παιδαρίῳ αὐτοῦ ἐπίστησον τὸν λέβητα τὸν μέγαν καὶ ἕψε ἕψεμα τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν προφητῶν

39 Mmoja wao akaenda kwenye shamba kukusanya mboga mboga. Alikuta matango ya porini na kukusanya ya kutosha hadi alipojaza kwenye nguo yake. Walizikata na kuziweka kwenye sufuria, lakini hakujua zilikuwa za aina gani.

καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἷς εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν συλλέξαι αριωθ καὶ εὗρεν ἄμπελον ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ καὶ συνέλεξεν ἀπ’ αὐτῆς τολύπην ἀγρίαν πλῆρες τὸ ἱμάτιον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνέβαλεν εἰς τὸν λέβητα τοῦ ἑψέματος ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνωσαν

40 Basi, wakawapakulia na kusambaziwa kwa watu kwa ajili ya kula. Baadae, kadiri walivyokuwa wakiendelea kula, walipiga kelele na kusema, “Mtu wa Mungu, kuna kifo kwenye sufuria!” Hivyo wasingeweza kula tena.

καὶ ἐνέχει τοῖς ἀνδράσιν φαγεῖν καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐσθίειν αὐτοὺς ἐκ τοῦ ἑψήματος καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνεβόησαν καὶ εἶπον θάνατος ἐν τῷ λέβητι ἄνθρωπε τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο φαγεῖν

41 Lakini Elisha akasema, “Late unga.” Alitupia kwenye sufuria na kusema, “Pakua kwa watu kwa ajili ya kula, kwa hiyo wanaweza kula.” Kisha hapakuwa kitu chochote kibaya kwenye ile sufuria.

καὶ εἶπεν λάβετε ἄλευρον καὶ ἐμβάλετε εἰς τὸν λέβητα καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε πρὸς Γιεζι τὸ παιδάριον ἔγχει τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἐσθιέτωσαν καὶ οὐκ ἐγενήθη ἔτι ἐκεῖ ῥῆμα πονηρὸν ἐν τῷ λέβητι

42 Akaja mtu kutoka Baal Shalisha kwa mtu wa Mungu na kumletea chakula cha kwanza cha mavuno yake mikate shirirni ya shayiri, na masuke mabichi kwenye gunia. Akasema, “Wape haya watu ili waweze kula.”

καὶ ἀνὴρ διῆλθεν ἐκ Βαιθσαρισα καὶ ἤνεγκεν πρὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ θεοῦ πρωτογενημάτων εἴκοσι ἄρτους κριθίνους καὶ παλάθας καὶ εἶπεν δότε τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἐσθιέτωσαν

43 Mtumishi wake akasema, “Je, niandae hii mbele ya watu mia moja?” Lakini Elisha akasema, “Wapeni hawa watu, ili waweze kula, kwa sabau Yahwe anasema, 'Watakula na kingine kitabaki.”'

καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λειτουργὸς αὐτοῦ τί δῶ τοῦτο ἐνώπιον ἑκατὸν ἀνδρῶν καὶ εἶπεν δὸς τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἐσθιέτωσαν ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος φάγονται καὶ καταλείψουσιν

44 Basi mtumishi wake akawaandalia mbele yao; wakala, na kuacha kingine kimebaki, kama neno la Yahwe lilivyokuwa limesema.

καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ κατέλιπον κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου
