< 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.”
Now a wife from among the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared Jehovah, but the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be his slaves."
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.”
Then Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house, except a small jar 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.
Then he said, "Go, ask for containers from outside, from all your neighbors, empty containers.
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.”
Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these containers, and you are to set each one aside when it is full."
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 left him and shut the door behind herself and her sons; they kept bringing her containers, and she kept pouring.
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.
Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, "Bring me another container." But he said to her, "There aren't any more." Then the oil stopped flowing.
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 she came and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons can live on 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.
Now it happened one day that Elisha traveled to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman, who urged him to eat some food. so whenever he passed by, he would stop in there to eat some food.
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 to her husband, "Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God who often passes by us.
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.”
Please, let's make a little room on the wall, and let's set up a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him there, so that whenever he comes to us, he can stay there."
11 Kaya nang dumating ang araw na bumalik si Eliseo para huminto roon, nanatili siya sa silid at nagpahinga roon.
Now it happened one day he came there, and he turned into the upper room and rested.
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 Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite." So he called for 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 to him, "Say now to her, 'Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you to the king, or to the commander of the army?'" She answered, "I have a home among 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.”
So he said, "What then can I do for her?" And Gehazi replied, "Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old."
15 Kaya sumagot si Eliseo, “Tawagin mo siya.” Nang siya ay tinawag niya, tumayo siya sa pintuan.
Then he said, "Call her." And when he had called her, she stood in the doorway.
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, when the time comes around, you will be holding a son." And she said, "No, my lord, man of God, do not lie to your servant."
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, when the time came around, just as Elisha had said to her.
18 Nang lumaki na ang bata, pumunta siya sa kaniyang ama, na kasama ng mga taga-ani.
And the child grew and it happened one day that he went out to his father to the harvest workers.
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 to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to his servant, "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 when he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her lap until noon, and died.
21 Kaya tumayo ang babae at hiniga ang bata sa higaan ng lingkod ng Diyos, sinara ang pinto, at umalis.
Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God and shut the door behind him and left.
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.”
Then she called to her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and then 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.”
But he said, "Why would you want to see him today? It is not the new moon or Sabbath." And she said, "It's alright."
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 a donkey, and said to her servant, "Lead on; do not slow down for me unless I tell you."
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 to the man of God at Mount Carmel. So it happened when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Look, there is the 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.”
Please run now to meet her and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the 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.”
But when she came to the man of God to the mountain, she grabbed hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to push her away, but the man of God said, "Leave her alone, for she is in severe anguish, and Jehovah has hidden it from me and has not told 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'?”
Then she said, "Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say, 'Do not mislead me?'"
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 he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And lay my staff on the face of the child."
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.
But the mother of the child said, "As Jehovah lives and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." So 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.”
Now Gehazi went on ahead of them and placed the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or response. Therefore he came back to meet him and told him, saying, "The child did not wake up."
32 Nang dumating si Eliseo sa bahay, patay na ang bata at nasa higaan pa rin.
When Elisha arrived at the house, look, the child was dead, lying on his bed.
33 Kaya pumasok si Eliseo at sinara ang pinto at nanalangin kay Yahweh. Umakyat siya at dinapaan ang bata;
So he went in and shut the door on the two of them and prayed to Jehovah.
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.
Then he got up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands, and he stretched himself upon him, and the body of the child grew 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 once back and forth, and went up and stretched himself upon him, and the child sneezed seven times and the child 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.”
Then he called to Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite." So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, "Pick up your son."
37 Pagkatapos nagpatirapa siya sa lupa at yumuko sa lupa, at pagkatapos kinuha ang kaniyang anak at umalis.
Then she came in and fell at his feet and bowed herself to the ground. Then she picked up her son and left.
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.”
Now Elisha came again to Gilgal, while there was a famine in the land. And the sons of the prophets were sitting before him, and he said to his servant, "Put on the large pot, and boil stew 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.
Then one of them went out into the field to gather herbs and found a wild vine, and gathered as many of its gourds as his garment would hold, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew, for he was unaware what it was.
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.
So they poured out for the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, "Man of God, there is death in the pot." And they could not eat it.
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, "Bring some flour." And he threw it into the pot and said, "Pour it out for the people, that they may eat." And there was no harm 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.”
Now a man from Baal Shalishah came and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And he said, "Give to 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.'”
But his servant said, "What, should I set this before a hundred men?" So he said, "Give them to the people so that they may eat, for thus says Jehovah, 'They will eat, and will have some left over.'"
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 had some left over, according to the word of Jehovah.
