2 Mga Hari 3
1 Ngayon sa ikalabing walong taon na paghahari ni haring Jehosafat hari ng Juda, si Joram anak ni Ahab ay nagsimulang maghari sa buong Israel sa Samaria; naghari siya ng labindalawang taon.
And Jehoram son of Ahab has reigned over Israel, in Samaria, in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigns twelve years,
2 Gumawa siya ng kasamaan sa paningin ni Yahweh, pero hindi gaya ng kaniyang ama at ina; dahil tinanggal niya ang sagradong posteng bato ni Baal na ginawa ng kaniyang ama.
and does evil in the eyes of YHWH, only not like his father, and like his mother, and he turns aside the standing-pillar of Ba‘al that his father made;
3 Gayun pa man, sumunod siya sa mga kasalanan ni Jeroboam anak ni Nebat, na nagsanhi sa Israel na magkasala; hindi siya lumayo sa kanila.
surely he has cleaved to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin; he has not turned aside from it.
4 Ngayon, nagparami ng tupa si Mesa hari ng Moab. Kailangan niyang magbigay sa hari ng Israel ng 100, 000 kordero at 100, 000 ng balahibo ng tupa.
And Mesha king of Moab was a sheep-master, and he rendered to the king of Israel one hundred thousand lambs and one hundred thousand rams, [with] wool,
5 Pero pagkatapos mamatay ni haring Ahab, nagrebelde ang hari ng Moab laban sa hari ng Israel.
and it comes to pass at the death of Ahab, that the king of Moab transgresses against the king of Israel.
6 Kaya sa oras na iyon, iniwan si Haring Joram ang Samaria para tipunin ang mga Israelita para sa digmaan.
And King Jehoram goes out from Samaria in that day, and inspects all Israel,
7 Nagpadala siya ng mensahe kay Jehosafat hari ng Juda, nagsasabing, “nagrebelde ang hari ng Moab laban sa akin. Sasamahan mo ba ako sa labanan sa Moab?” Sumagot si Jehosafat, “Pupunta ako. Ikaw at ako ay iisa, ang aking bayan ay iyong bayan, ang aking mga kabayo ay iyong mga kabayo.”
and goes and sends to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has transgressed against me; do you go with me to Moab for battle?” And he says, “I go up, as I, so you; as my people, so your people; as my horses, so your horses.”
8 Pagkatapos kaniyang sinabi, “Saang daanan tayo lulusob?” sumagot si Jehosafat, “Sa daanan sa disyerto ng Edom.”
And he says, “Where [is] this—the way we go up?” And he says, “The way of the wilderness of Edom.”
9 Kaya ang mga hari ng Israel, Juda, at Edom ay naglakad nang halos paikot ng pitong araw. Walang tubig ang matagpuan para sa mga hukbo, ni para sa mga kabayo o ibang mga hayop.
And the king of Israel goes, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom, and they turn around the way seven days, and there has been no water for the camp, and for the livestock that [are] at their feet,
10 Kaya sinabi ng hari ng Israel, “Ano ito? Tinawag ba ni Yahweh ang tatlong hari ng magkakasama para talunin ng Moab?”
and the king of Israel says, “Aah! For YHWH has called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”
11 Pero sinabi ni Jehosafat, “Wala ba ritong propeta ni Yahweh, para makapagsangguni tayo kay Yahweh sa pamamagitan niya?” Isa sa mga alipin ng hari ng Israel ang sumagot at sinabi, “Nandito si Eliseo anak ni Safat, ang nagbuhos ng tubig sa mga kamay ni Elias.”
And Jehoshaphat says, “Is there not a prophet of YHWH here, and we seek YHWH by him?” And one of the servants of the king of Israel answers and says, “Here [is] Elisha son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”
12 Sinabi ni Jehosafat, “Nasasakaniya ang salita ni Yahweh.” Kaya pinuntahan siya ni Jehosafat hari ng Israel, at ng hari ng Edom.
And Jehoshaphat says, “The word of YHWH is with him”; and the king of Israel goes down to him, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom.
13 Sinabi ni Eliseo sa hari ng Israel, “Ano ang kinalaman ko sa iyo? Pumunta ka sa mga propeta ng iyong ama at ina.” Kaya sinabi ng hari ng Israel sa kaniya, “Hindi, dahil tinawag kaming tatlong hari ni Yahweh, para matalo kami ng Moab.”
And Elisha says to the king of Israel, “And what do I [have to do] with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother”; and the king of Israel says to him, “No, for YHWH has called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”
14 Sumagot si Eliseo, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh ng mga hukbo, na siyang aking pinanaligan, kung hindi ko lang totoong ginagalang ang presensya ni Jehosafat hari ng Juda, ni hindi kita papansinin, o titingnan.
And Elisha says, “YHWH of Hosts lives, before whom I have stood; for unless I am lifting up the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I do not look to you, nor see you;
15 Pero magdala kayo ngayon ng isang manunugtog.” At nang tapos na ang pagtugtog ng manunugtog ng alpa, lumapit ang kamay ni Yahweh kay Eliseo.
and now, bring a musician to me”; and it has been, at the playing of the musician, that the hand of YHWH is on him,
16 Sinabi niya, “Sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Gawan ninyo ang tuyong ilog na ito ng maraming kanal.'
and he says, “Thus said YHWH: Make this valley ditches—ditches;
17 Dahil sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Hindi kayo makakakita ng hangin, ni makakakita ng ulan, pero mapupuno ng tubig ang ilog na ito, at iinom kayo, ikaw at inyong mga baka at lahat ng inyong mga alagang hayop.'
for thus said YHWH: You do not see wind, nor do you see rain, and that valley is full of water, and you have drunk—you, and your livestock, and your beasts.
18 Madaling bagay lamang ito sa paningin ni Yahweh. Bibigyan niya din kayo ng tagumpay laban sa mga Moabita.
And this has been light in the eyes of YHWH, and he has given Moab into your hand,
19 Lulusob kayo sa bawat matitibay na lungsod at magagandang lungsod, puputulin ang bawat magagandang puno, ihihinto ang lahat ng tubig na bukal, at sisirain ang bawat magagandang bahagi ng lupain sa pamamagitan ng bato.”
and you have struck every fortified city, and every choice city, and you cause every good tree to fall, and you stop all fountains of waters, and you mar every good portion with stones.”
20 Kaya kinaumagahan, nang halos oras na ng paghahandog ng alay, dumating ang tubig sa direksyon ng Edom; napuno ang bansa ng tubig.
And it comes to pass in the morning, at the ascending of the [morning] present, that behold, waters are coming in from the way of Edom, and the land is filled with the waters,
21 Nang narinig ng lahat ng Moabita na dumating ang mga hari para lumaban sa kanila, tinipon nila ang kanilang mga sarili, lahat nang may kakayahan na magsuot ng baluti, at tumayo sila sa hangganan.
and all of Moab has heard that the kings have come up to fight against them, and they are called together, from everyone girding on a girdle and upward, and they stand by the border.
22 Gumising sila nang maaga at sumalamin ang araw sa tubig. Nang nakita ito ng mga Moabita, ang tubig sa kanilang banda, mukhang kasing pula ng dugo.
And they rise early in the morning, and the sun has shone on the waters, and the Moabites see, from opposite [them], [that] the waters [are] red as blood,
23 Sumigaw sila, “Dugo ito! Tiyak na nawasak na ang mga hari, at pinatay nila ang isa't-isa! Kaya ngayon, Moab, Nakawan na natin sila!”
and say, “This [is] blood; the kings have been surely destroyed, and they each strike his neighbor; and now for spoil, Moab!”
24 Nang dumating sila sa kampo ng Israel, binigla sila ng mga Israelita at nilusob ang mga Moabita, na tumakas mula sa kanila. Hinabol ng mga hukbo ng Israel ang mga Moabita sa kabilang lupain at pinatay sila.
And they come to the camp of Israel, and Israel rises, and strikes the Moabites, and they flee from their face; and they enter into Moab, so as to strike Moab,
25 Winasak ng Israel ang mga lungsod, at sa bawat magagandang bahagi ng lupain, naghahagis ang bawat tao ng bato at napuno ng bato ang mayabong na mga sakahan. Pinahinto nila ang lahat ng bukal ng tubig at pinutol ang lahat ng magagandang puno, maliban lamang sa Kir-Haseret, kung saan iniwan nila ang mga bato sa lugar. Pero inatake ito ng mga sundalong may tirador.
and they break down the cities, and they each cast his stone [on] every good portion, and have filled it, and they stop every fountain of water, and they cause every good tree to fall—until one had left its stones in Kir-Haraseth, and the slingers go around and strike it.
26 Nang nakita ni Haring Mesa ng Moab na natalo na sila sa laban, sinama niya ang pitong-daan na mga lalaking gumagamit ng espada para lusubin ang hari ng Edom, pero nabigo sila.
And the king of Moab sees that the battle has been too strong for him, and he takes with him seven hundred men drawing sword, to cleave through to the king of Edom, and they have not been able,
27 Pagkatapos, sinama niya ang kaniyang panganay, na maghahari sana pagkatapos niya, hinandog niya ito bilang susunuging alay sa pader. Kaya nagkaroon ng labis na galit laban sa Israel, at iniwan ng hukbo ng Israelita si Haring Mesa at bumalik sa kanilang sariling lupain.
and he takes his son, the firstborn who reigns in his stead, and causes him to ascend [as] a burnt-offering on the wall, and there is great wrath against Israel, and they journey from off him, and return to the land.
