2 Mga Hari 4

1 Ngayon, nagpuntang umiiyak ang isa sa mga asawa ng mga anak ng mga propeta kay Eliseo, sinabing, “Ang iyong lingkod na aking asawa ay patay na, at alam mo na may takot ang iyong lingkod kay Yahweh. Ngayon pumunta ang nagpapautang para kunin ang aking dalawang anak para maging mga alipin niya.”

And a certain woman, of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried unto Elisha', saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou well knowest that thy servant was one who feared the Lord: and now the creditor is come to take my two sons unto himself for servants.

2 Kaya sinabi ni Eliseo sa kaniya, “Ano ang magagawa ko para sa iyo?” Sinabi niya, “Ang iyong lingkod ay walang kahit ano sa bahay, maliban sa palayok ng langis.”

And Elisha' said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thy hand-maid hath nothing in the house, save a pot of oil.

3 Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Eliseo, “Umalis ka para manghiram ng mga tapayan na walang laman sa iyong mga kapit-bahay. Manghiram ka ng marami hangga't maaari.

And he said, Go, borrow for thyself vessels from abroad from all thy neighbors, empty vessels, let them not be a few.

4 Pagkatapos kailangan mo pumunta sa loob ng bahay mo at isara ang pinto sa likod mo at ng iyong mga anak, at ibuhos ang langis sa mga tapayan na iyon; itabi mo ang mga tapayan na napuno.”

And then go home, and lock the door behind thee and behind thy sons, and then pour out into all those vessels; and that which is full thou shalt set aside.

5 Kaya iniwan niya si Eliseo at sinara ang pinto sa likod niya at kaniyang mga anak. Nagdala sila ng mga tapayan para sa kaniya, at pinuno ang mga ito ng langis.

So she went from him, and locked the door behind her and behind her sons, who brought the vessels near to her, and she poured out.

6 Nang napuno na ang mga lagayan, sabi niya sa kaniyang mga anak, “Magdala pa kayo ng isa pang tapayan.” Pero ang sabi ng anak niya sa kaniya, “Wala ng mga tapayan.” Pagkatapos, huminto na sa pagdaloy ng langis.

And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring near to me yet another vessel; and he said unto her, There is not a vessel more: and the oil stayed.

7 Pagkatapos, bumalik siya at sinabi sa lingkod ng Diyos. Sabi niya, “Pumunta ka roon, ibenta mo ang langis; bayaran mo ang iyong utang, at mamuhay kasama ng iyong mga anak sa mga natira.”

Then came she and told it to the man of God; and he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and thou with thy children shalt live of the rest.

8 Isang araw, naglakad si Eliseo sa Sunem kung saan nakatira ang isang mahalagang babae; pinilit niyang kumain sila ng magkasama. Kaya sa madalas na pagdaan ni Eliseo, siya ay humihinto para kumain doon.

And it happened one day, that Elisha' passed over to Shunem, and there was a great woman, and she constrained him to eat bread; and it happened, that as oft as he passed by, he used to turn in thither to eat bread.

9 Sinabi ng babae sa kaniyang asawa, “Tingnan mo, nalaman ko na ang lalaking ito na laging dumadaan dito ay lingkod ng Diyos.

And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who passeth through by us continually.

10 Gumawa tayo ng maliit na silid sa bubungan para kay Eliseo, at maglagay tayo ng higaan, upuan, at lampara. Pagkatapos, kapag pumunta siya sa atin, mananatili na siya roon.”

Let us then make a little upper chamber, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a chair, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

11 Kaya nang dumating ang araw na bumalik si Eliseo para huminto roon, nanatili siya sa silid at nagpahinga roon.

And it happened one day, that he came thither, and he turned into the upper chamber, and lay there.

12 Sinabi ni Eliseo sa kaniyang lingkod na si Gehazi, “Tawagin mo ang Sunamita.” Nang tinawag niya ito, tumayo ang babae sa harap niya.

And he said to Gechazi his servant, Call this Shunammite: and he called her, and she stood before him.

13 Sinabi ni Eliseo sa lingkod, “Sabihin mo sa babae na, 'Ginawa mo ang lahat ng abalang ito para alagaan kami. Ano ang maaari kong gawin para sa iyo? Gusto mo bang kausapin namin ang hari para sa iyo o sa pinuno ng hukbo?'” Sumagot siya, 'Namuhay ako kasama ang aking sariling bayan.”

And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been at pains to take all this trouble for us: what is to be done for thee? wouldst thou be spoken for to the king, or to the chief of the army? And she said, I dwell in the midst of my own people.

14 Kaya sinabi ni Eliseo, “Ano pala ang maaari nating gawin para sa kaniya?” Sumagot si Gehazi, “Tunay nga, wala siyang anak, at matanda na ang kaniyang asawa.”

And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gechazi said, Verily, she hath no son, and her husband is old.

15 Kaya sumagot si Eliseo, “Tawagin mo siya.” Nang siya ay tinawag niya, tumayo siya sa pintuan.

And he said, Call her: and he called her, and she stood in the door.

16 Sinabi ni Eliseo, “Sa parehong oras ng taong ito, pagkatapos ng isang taon, makakahawak ka ng isang anak.” Sinabi niya, “Hindi, aking panginoon at lingkod ng Diyos, huwag kang magsinungaling sa iyong alipin.”

And he said, At this season, next year, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, No, my Lord, man of God, do not deceive thy hand-maid.

17 Pero nagdalang-tao ang babae at nanganak ng isang lalaki sa parehong panahon ng sumunod na taon, tulad ng sinabi ni Eliseo sa kaniya.

But the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season in the following year, as Elisha' had spoken unto her.

18 Nang lumaki na ang bata, pumunta siya sa kaniyang ama, na kasama ng mga taga-ani.

And the child grew up; and it happened one day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.

19 Sinabi niya sa kaniyang ama, “Ang ulo ko, ang ulo ko.” Sabi ng kaniyang ama sa kaniyang alipin, “Buhatin mo siya sa kaniyang ina.”

And he said unto his father, My head, my head: and he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.

20 Nang binuhat siya at dinala ang bata sa kaniyang ina, umupo ang bata sa tuhod ng kaniyang ina hanggang tanghali at pagkatapos ay namatay.

And he took him up, and brought him to his mother, and he sat on her knees till noon, when he died.

21 Kaya tumayo ang babae at hiniga ang bata sa higaan ng lingkod ng Diyos, sinara ang pinto, at umalis.

And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and locked the door behind him, and went out.

22 Tinawag niya ang kaniyang asawa, at sinabi, “Pakiusap magpadala ka sa akin ng isa sa mga alipin at isa sa mga asno para ako ay makapagmadali sa lingkod ng Diyos at makabalik agad.”

And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the she-asses, that I may hasten as far as the man of God, and return.

23 Sinabi ng asawa niya, “Bakit gusto mong pumunta sa kaniya ngayong araw na ito? Hindi naman Kapistahan ng Bagong Buwan o Araw ng Pamamahinga.” Sumagot siya. “Magiging maayos din ang lahat.”

And he said, Wherefore art thou going to him today? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It is well.

24 Pagkatapos, sinakyan niya ang asno at sinabi sa kaniyang alipin, “Bilisan mo ang pagmamaneho; huwag kang babagal hangga't hindi ko sinasabi.”

Then she saddled the she-ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; do not restrain me in riding, unless I say it to thee.

25 Kaya pumunta siya sa lingkod ng Diyos sa Bundok Carmel. Nang nakita siya ng lingkod ng Diyos sa malayo, sinabi niya kay Gehazi kaniyang alipin, “Tingnan mo, paparating na ang Sunamita.

So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel; and it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gechazi his servant, Behold, yonder that Shunammite.

26 Pakiusap, tumakbo ka para salubungin siya at sabihin mo sa kaniya, 'Maayos ba ang lahat sa iyo at iyong asawa at anak'” Sumagot siya, “Maayos naman.”

Now do run to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with thy child? and she answered, It is well.

27 Nang pumunta siya sa lingkod ng Diyos sa bundok, hinawakan niya ang paa ng lingkod ng Diyos. Lumapit si Gehazi para ilayo siya pero sinabi ng lingkod ng Diyos, “Pabayaan mo siya, dahil siya ay malungkot, at tinago ni Yahweh ang problema sa akin, at walang siyang sinabi sa akin.”

And she came to the man of God to the mount, and caught hold of his feet; and Gechazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is grieved within her; and the Lord hath hidden it from me, and hath not told it me.

28 Pagkatapos kaniyang sinabi, “Humingi ba ako sa iyo ng anak, aking panginoon? Hindi ba sinabi ko sa iyo na, 'Huwag mo akong linlangin'?”

And she said, Did I request a son from my Lord? did I not say, Do not lead me astray?

29 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Eliseo kay Gehazi, “Magdamit ka para sa paglalakbay at kunin mo ang aking tungkod. Pumunta ka sa bahay niya. Kung may makakasalubong ka, huwag mo siyang batiin, at kung may babati sa iyo, huwag mo siyang sagutin. Ilagay mo ang tungkod ko sa mukha ng bata.”

Then said he to Gechazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, thou shalt not salute him; and if any salute thee, thou shalt not answer him; and lay my staff upon the face of the lad.

30 Pero sinabi ng ina ng bata, “Hanggang nabubuhay si Yahweh, at hanggang nabubuhay ka, hindi kita iiwan.” Kaya tumayo si Eliseo at sinundan siya.

And the mother of the lad said, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose and followed her.

31 Nagmadaling nauna sa kanila si Gehazi at nilagay ang tungkod sa mukha ng bata, pero hindi ito nagsalita o nakarinig. Kaya bumalik si Gehazi para salubungin si Eliseo at sinabi sa kaniya, “Hindi nagising ang bata.”

And Gechazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the lad; but there was neither voice, nor perceptible sound; wherefore he went back to meet him, and told him, saying, The lad is not awakened.

32 Nang dumating si Eliseo sa bahay, patay na ang bata at nasa higaan pa rin.

And when Elisha' was come into the house, behold, the lad was dead, laid upon his bed.

33 Kaya pumasok si Eliseo at sinara ang pinto at nanalangin kay Yahweh. Umakyat siya at dinapaan ang bata;

And he went in and locked the door behind both of them, and prayed unto the Lord.

34 nilagay ang bibig niya sa bibig ng bata, kaniyang mata sa mata ng bata, at kaniyang kamay sa kamay ng bata. Inunat niya ang kaniyang sarili sa bata, at nag-init ang katawan ng bata.

And he went up, and laid himself upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands; and he stretched himself upon him: and the flesh of the child became warm.

35 Pagkatapos tumayo si Eliseo at naglakad sa silid at umakyat muli at inunat ang kaniyang sarili sa bata. Bumahing ang bata ng pitong beses at binuksan ang kaniyang mga mata!

Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself [again] upon him; and the lad sneezed as many as seven times, and the lad opened his eyes.

36 Kaya tinawag ni Eliseo si Gehazi, “Tawagin mo ang Sunamita!” Kaya tinawag niya ito, at nang pumunta siya sa silid, sabi ni Eliseo, “Kunin mo ang iyong anak.”

And he called Gechazi, and said, Call this Shunammite: so he called her, and she came in unto him; and he said, Take up thy son.

37 Pagkatapos nagpatirapa siya sa lupa at yumuko sa lupa, at pagkatapos kinuha ang kaniyang anak at umalis.

Then went she in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.

38 Pagkatapos pumunta muli si Eliseo sa Gilgal. Mayroong taggutom doon sa lupain, at umupo sa kaniyang tabi ang mga anak ng mga propeta. Sinabi niya sa mga alipin, “Ilagay ninyo ang malaking palayok sa apoy at magluto ng nilaga para sa mga anak ng mga propeta.”

And Elisha' returned to Gilgal; and there was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the large pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.

39 Ang isa sa kanila ay pumunta sa sakahan para maglikom ng mga gulay. Nakahanap siya ng ligaw na punong ubas at nakalikom ng sapat na ligaw na mga gulay para punuin ang tupi ng kaniyang balabal. Hiniwa nila ang mga ito at nilagay sa nilaga, pero hindi nila alam kung anong uri ang mga iyon.

And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild colocynths his garment full, and came and cut them up into the pot of pottage; for they knew them not.

40 Kaya binuhos nila ang nilaga para kainin ng mga tao. Kinalaunan, habang kumakain sila, sumigaw sila at sinabi, “Lingkod ng Diyos, may kamatayan sa palayok!” At hindi na sila makakain.

And they poured it out for the men to eat; and it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, Death is in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat.

41 Pero sinabi ni Eliseo, “Magdala ng ilang harina.” Hinagis niya ito sa palayok at sinabi, “Ibuhos ninyo ito para sa mga tao, para makakain sila.” At wala ng anumang bagay ang nakakasakit sa loob ng palayok.

But he said, Then bring some meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour it out for the people, that they may eat. And there was nothing bad in the pot.

42 Isang lalaking taga-Baal-salisa ang lumapit sa lingkod ng Diyos at nagdala ng labingdalawang trigong tinapay sa kaniyang sako mula sa bagong ani, at sariwang aning butil. Sinabi niya, “Ibigay mo ito sa mga tao para makakain sila.”

And there came a man from Ba'alshalishah, and brought unto the man of God bread of the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley bread, and fresh ears of corn in his scrip: and he said, Give it unto the people, that they may eat.

43 Sinabi ng kaniyang alipin, “Ano, dapat ko ba itong ihain sa harapan ng isang-daang lalaki?” Pero sinabi ni Eliseo, “Ibigay mo ito sa mga tao, para makakain sila, dahil sinabi ito ni Yahweh, 'Kakain sila at magkakaroon pa ng tira.'”

And his servitor said, What, shall I set this before a hundred men? And he said, Give it unto the people, that they may eat; for thus hath said the Lord, They shall eat, and shall leave [thereof].

44 Kaya hinain ito ng kaniyang alipin sa kanilang harapan; kumain sila, at may mga natira pa, gaya ng pinangakong salita ni Yahweh.

So he set it before them, and they ate, and left thereof, according to the word of the Lord.
