2 Mga Hari 2
1 At nangyari, nang kukunin na ni Yahweh si Elias paakyat sa langit sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo, umalis si Elias kasama si Eliseo sa Gilgal.
And it came to pass, when the Lord was about to take up Elijah by a storm-wind to heaven, that Elijah went out with Elisha' from Gilgal.
2 Sinabi ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Pakiusap, manatili ka rito dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Bethel.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya pumunta sila sa Bethel.
And Elijah said unto Elisha', Remain, I pray thee, here; for the Lord hath sent me as far as Beth-el. But Elisha' said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Beth-el.
3 Pumunta ang mga anak ng mga propeta na nasa Bethel kay Eliseo at sinabi sa kaniya, “Alam mo ba na kukunin ni Yahweh ang panginoon mo ngayong araw na ito?” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Oo, alam ko, pero huwag ninyo ng banggitin iyon.”
And the sons of the prophets that were at Beth-el came forth to Elisha', and said unto him, Knowest thou that today the Lord will take away thy master from thy head? And he said, I also know it; be still.
4 Sinabi ni Elias sa kaniya, “Eliseo, pakiusap, manatili ka rito, dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Jerico.” At sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya nagpunta sila sa Jerico.
And Elijah said unto him, Elisha', remain, I pray thee, here; for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho. But he said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
5 Pagkatapos pumunta ang mga anak ng mga propeta kay Eliseo na nasa Jerico at sinabi sa kaniya, “Alam mo ba na kukunin ni Yahweh ang panginoon mo ngayong araw na ito?” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Oo, alam ko, pero huwag ninyo ng banggitin iyon.”
And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came near to Elisha', and said unto him, Knowest thou that today the Lord will take away thy master from thy head? And he said, I also know it; be still.
6 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Elias sa kaniya, “Eliseo, pakiusap, manatili ka rito, dahil pinapadala ako ni Yahweh sa Jordan.” At sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya nagtungo ang dalawa.
And Elijah said unto him, Remain, I pray thee, here; for the Lord hath sent me to the Jordan. But he said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So these two went on.
7 Kinalaunan, limampung anak ng mga propeta ang tumayo sa harap ng dalawa habang nakatayo sa kabilang dako ng Jordan.
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood opposite [to them] afar off: and those two stood by the Jordan.
8 Hinubad ni Elias ang kaniyang balabal, tinupi, at hinampas ang tubig gamit ito. Nahati sa dalawang bahagi ang ilog kaya nakalakad ang dalawa sa tuyong lupa.
And Elijah took his mantle, and folded it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, and they went, both of them, over on dry ground.
9 At iyon nga ang nangyari pagkatapos nilang tumawid sa kabila, sinabi ni Elias kay Eliseo, “Hilingin mo sa akin ang ibig mong gawin ko para sa iyo bago ako kunin sa piling mo.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Kung maaari hayaan mong mapunta sa akin ang dalawang ulit ng iyong espiritu.”
And it came to pass, when they passed over, that Elijah said unto Elisha', Ask what I shall do for thee, before I shall be taken away from thee. And Elisha' said, Let there be, I pray thee, a double portion of thy spirit upon me.
10 Sumagot si Elias, “Humihiling ka ng mahirap na bagay. Gayun pa man, kung makikita mo ako kapag kinuha ako mula sa iyo, mangyayari ito sa iyo, pero kung hindi, hindi mangyayari iyon.”
And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so [given] unto thee; but if not, it shall not be.
11 Habang naglalakad sila at nag-uusap, biglang may isang karwahe ng apoy at mga kabayong apoy ang lumitaw, na nagpahiwalay sa kanila, at nilipad pataas si Elias sa pamamagitan ng ipu-ipo sa langit.
And it came to pass, as they went on, speaking as they were going, that, behold, there came a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a storm-wind to heaven.
12 Nakita iyon ni Eliseo at nanangis, “Ama ko, ama ko, ang mga karwahe ng Israel at kanilang kabalyero!” Hindi na niya nakita si Elias, at hinawakan ang kaniyang damit at pinunit sa dalawang bahagi.
And Elisha' saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and their horsemen. And he saw him no more; and he took hold of his clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 Dinampot niya ang nahulog na balabal mula kay Elias, at bumalik sa pampang ng Jordan para tumayo roon.
And he lifted up the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and went back, and stood by the border of the Jordan;
14 Hinampas niya ang tubig gamit ang nahulog na balabal ni Elias at sinabi, “Nasaan si Yahweh, ang Diyos ni Elias?” Nang hinampas niya ang tubig, nahati ito sa dalawalang bahagi at tumawid si Eliseo.
And he took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the Lord the God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither; and Elisha' passed over.
15 Nang nakita ng mga anak ng mga propeta na mula sa Jerico na nakatawid siya, sinabi nila, “Napunta ang espiritu ni Elias kay Eliseo!” Kaya nagpunta sila para salubungin siya, at iniyuko ang kanilang mga sarili sa lupa sa kaniyang harapan.
And when the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho, at a distance, saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah Doth rest on Elisha'. And they came forth to meet him, and bowed themselves unto him to the ground.
16 Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Tingnan mo, may limampung malalakas na lalaki mula sa iyong mga alipin. Hinihiling namin na ipadala mo sila para hanapin ang iyong panginoon, kung sakali na kinuha siya ng Espiritu ni Yahweh at hinagis sa ilang bundok o ilang lambak.” Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hindi, huwag ninyo silang ipadala.”
And they said unto him, Behold now, there are among thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master; peradventure the Spirit of the Lord hath taken him up, and cast him upon one of the mountains, or into one of the valleys. And he said, Ye must not send.
17 Pero nang napilit nila si Eliseo hanggang sa mahiya na siya, sinabi niya, “Ipadala ninyo na sila.” Pagkatapos nagpadala sila ng limampung kalalakihan, at naghanap sila ng tatlong araw, pero hindi siya nahanap.
And they urged him till he was ashamed, when he said, Send. And they sent fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
18 Bumalik sila kay Eliseo, habang nanatili siya sa Jerico, at sinabi niya sa kanila, “Hindi ba sinabi ko na sa inyo, 'Huwag na kayong pumunta'?”
And they returned again to him, for he had remained at Jericho; and he then said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Ye should not go?
19 Sinabi ng mga lalaki sa lungsod kay Eliseo, “Nagmamakaawa kami sa iyo, nakikita mo na mabuti ang kalagayan ng lungsod na ito, gaya ng nakikita ng panginoon ko, pero madumi ang tubig at hindi mabunga ang lupain.”
And the men of the city said unto Elisha', Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is good, as my Lord seeth; but the water is bad, and the land causeth untimely births.
20 Sumagot si Eliseo, “Magdala kayo sa akin ng bagong mangkok at lagyan ito ng asin,” kaya dinala nila iyon sa kaniya.
And he said, Fetch me a new flask, and put salt therein: and they fetched it to him.
21 Nagpunta si Eliseo sa bukal ng tubig at tinapon ang asin doon; at kaniyang sinabi, “Sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Pinagaling ko na ang tubigang ito. Mula sa oras na ito, walang ng kamatayan at lupaing hindi mamumunga,'”
And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast therein the salt, and said, Thus hath said the Lord, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from there any more death or untimely births.
22 Kaya gumaling ang tubigan sa araw ding iyon, sa pamamagitan ng mga salita na sinabi ni Eliseo.
So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha' which he spoke.
23 Pagkatapos pumunta si Eliseo mula roon hanggang sa Bethel. Habang papunta siya sa kaniyang daraanan, may mga batang lalaki ang lumabas mula sa lungsod at hinamak siya; sinabi nila sa kaniya,” Umakyat ka, kalbo! Umaakyat ka, kalbo!”
And he went up from there to Beth-el: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth young lads out of the city, and they mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, bald-head! go up, bald-head!
24 Tumingin si Eliseo sa kaniyang likuran at nakita sila; tumawag siya kay Yahweh para sumpain sila. Pagkatapos dalawang babaeng oso ang lumabas sa kakahuyan at sinugod ang apatnapu't dalawang bata.
And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord; and there came forth two she-bears out of the forest, and tore of them forty and two boys.
25 Pagkatapos pumunta si Eliseo mula roon sa Bundok Carmel, at mula roon bumalik siya sa Samaria.
And he went from there to mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
