1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he te u ʻe Sihova ke toʻo hake ʻa ʻIlaisiā ki loto langi ʻi he ʻahiohio, naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻIlaisiā mo ʻIlaisa mei Kilikali.
Hivyo ilipokuja kuhusu, wakati Yahwe alipokuwa akienda kumchukua Eliya kwenda mbinguni kwa uvumi, ambapo Eliya aliondoka pamoja na Elisha kutoka Gigali.
2 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kia ʻIlaisa, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke tatali koe ʻi heni; he kuo fekauʻi au ʻe Sihova ki Peteli.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku moʻui ho laumālie, pea ʻe ʻikai te u mahuʻi meiate koe.” Pea ko ia naʻa na ʻalu hifo ai ki Peteli.
Eliya akamwambia Elisha, '“kaa hapa, tafadhali, kwa sababu Yahwe alinituma kwa Betheli.'” Elisha akajibu, “Kama Yahwe aishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.'” Hivyo wakashuka chini kulekea Betheli.
3 Pea naʻe hū mai kia ʻIlaisa ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita ʻaia naʻe ʻi Peteli, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻe ʻave ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ʻeiki mei ho ʻulu he ʻaho ni?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻIo, ʻoku ou ʻilo; ka mou longo pe kimoutolu.”
Wana wa manabii ambao walikuwa Betheli walikuja kwa Elisha na kumwambia, je unajua kwamba Yahwe atamwondoa bwana wako kuanzia leo?”' Elisha akajibu, “Ndiyo, nalijua hilo, ila msizungumze kuhusu hilo.”'
4 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kiate ia, “ʻIlaisa, ʻOku ou kole ke ke tatali ʻi heni; he kuo fekauʻi au ʻe Sihova ki Seliko.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku moʻui ho laumālie, pea ʻe ʻikai te u mahuʻi meiate koe.” Ko ia naʻa na hoko ai ki Seliko.
Eliya akamwambia, “Elisha, subiri hapa, tafadhali, kwa kuwa Yahwe amenituma niende Yeriko.” Kisha Elisha akajibu, '“Kama Yahwe aishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.” Hivyo wakaenda Yeriko.
5 Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita ʻaia naʻe ʻi Seliko kia ʻIlaisa, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo ʻe ʻave ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ʻeiki mei ho ʻulu he ʻaho ni?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻIo, ʻoku ou ʻilo; ka mou longo pe kimoutolu.”
Kisha wana wa manabii ambao walikuwa Yeriko wakaja kwa Elisha na kumwambia, “'Je unajua kwamba Yahwe atamwondoa bwana wako kutoka kwako leo?” Elisha akajibu, “Ndiyo, nalijua hilo, lakini msilizungumzie hilo.”
6 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kiate ia, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke tatali koe ʻi heni; he kuo fekauʻi au ʻe Sihova ki Sioatani.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku moʻui ho laumālie, pea ʻe ʻikai te u mahuʻi meiate koe.” Pea naʻe ʻalu atu pe ʻakinaua ni.
Kisha Eliya akamwambia, '“kaa hapa, tafadhali, kwa kuwa Yahwe amenituma kwenda Yeriko.” Elisha akajibu, “Kama Yahwe ishivyo, na kama uishivyo, sintokuacha.” Hivyo wawili wakaenda mbele.
7 Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nimangofulu ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita, ʻonau tutuʻu ke sio mei he mamaʻo: pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻakinaua ʻo feʻunga atu mo Sioatani.
Baadaye watu hamsini wa watoto wa wale manabii wakasimama kuwakabili kwa mbali kidogo wale wawili wakasimama karibu na Yordani.
8 Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe ʻIlaisiā ʻa hono pulupulu, mo ne takai fakataha ia, mo ne tā ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi vai, pea naʻe vaheua ia, pea ko ia naʻa na ʻalu atu ai ʻi he kelekele mōmoa.
Eliya akachukua vazi lake, akaliviringisha, na kuyapiga maji kwa kutumia lile vazi. Ule mto ukagawanyika katika sehemu mbili hivyo basi wawili hao wakatembea hadi nchi kavu.
9 Pea hili ʻena ʻalu ki he kauvai ʻe taha naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisiā kia ʻIlaisa, “Ke ke tala mai pe ko e hā ha meʻa te u fai maʻau ʻi he teʻeki ʻave au meiate koe.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke ʻiate au ha vāhenga ʻe ua ʻo ho ʻulungāanga ʻoʻou.”
Ilitokea, walipokwisha kuvuka, kwamba Eliya akamwambia Elisha, “Niambie unachotaka nifanye kwako kabla sijaondolewa kutoka kwako.” Elisha akajibu, “Naomba sehemu kubwa ya roho yako ije kwangu.
10 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku faingataʻa ʻae meʻa kuo ke kole ki ai: Ka koeʻuhi, kapau te ke mamata ki he ʻave au meiate koe, ʻe hoko ʻo pehē kiate koe pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, pea ʻe ʻikai hoko ia.”
Eliya akajibu, “Umeomba jambo gumu. Hata hivyo, kama ukiniona wakati nitakapoondolewa kutoka kwako, hii itatokea kwako, lakini kama sivyo, haitatokea.”
11 Pea vakai, lolotonga ʻa ʻena kei ʻalu atu, mo talanoa, naʻe hā mai ha saliote afi, mo e fanga hoosi ʻoe afi, pea naʻe māvae ai ʻakinaua; pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻIlaisiā ʻi he ʻahiohio ki he langi.
Ikawa walipokuwa bado wakienda mbele na kuzungumza, gari la kukokotwa na farasi lenye moto na farasi wa moto ikatokea, ambapo iliwatenga wale watu wawili kutoka kila mmoja, na Eliya akaenda juu kwa uvumi wa upepo kwenda mbinguni.
12 Pea naʻe mamata ki ai ʻa ʻIlaisa, pea naʻa ne kalanga, “ʻA ʻeku tamai, ʻa ʻeku tamai, ko e saliote ʻo ʻIsileli, mo e kau heka hoosi ʻo ia.” Pea naʻe ʻikai toe mamata ia kiate ia: pea naʻa ne puke ʻa hono ngaahi kofu ʻoʻona, mo ne haeua ia.
Elisha akaiona akalia kwa sauti, “Baba yangu, baba yangu, gari la kukokotwa na farasi la Israeli na waendesha farasi!'” Hakumwona Eliya tena, na akashikilia nguo zake mwenyewe na kugawanya kwenye vipande viwili.
13 Naʻa ne toʻo hake foki ʻae pulupulu ʻo ʻIlaisiā ʻaia naʻe tō hifo meiate ia, pea ne foki ki mui, mo ne tuʻu ki he kauvai ʻo Sioatani:
Akachukua vazi la Eliya lililokuwa limemwangukia, na kurudi kusimama kwenye ukingo wa Yordani.
14 Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae pulupulu ʻo ʻIlaisiā ʻaia naʻe tō hifo meiate ia, ʻo ne tā ʻaki ʻae ngaahi vai, mo ne pehē, “Ko fē ia ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIlaisiā?” Pea ʻi heʻene tā foki ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi vai, naʻa nau vahe kehekehe, ka ka ʻalu atu ʻa ʻIlaisa [ki he kauvai ]ʻe taha.
Akayapiga maji pamoja na lile vazi la Eliya alilokuwa ameliangusha na kusema, “Yahwe yuko wapi, Mungu wa Eliya?'” Wakati alipoyapiga yale maji, yaligawanyika katika pande mbili na Elisha akavuka.
15 Pea ʻi he sio kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita ʻaia naʻe ʻalu atu mei Seliko ke mamata, naʻa nau pehē, “Kuo hoko ʻae laumālie ʻo ʻIlaisiā kia ʻIlaisa.” Pea naʻa nau omi ke fetaulaki mai kiate ia, mo nau fakatōmapeʻe hifo kinautolu ki he kelekele ʻi hono ʻao.
Wakati hao wana wa manabii ambao walitoka Yeriko walipomuona akikatiza kwao, wakasema, “roho ya Eliya imepumzika kwa Elisha!” Hivyo wakaja kuonana naye, na wakasujudu aridhini mbele yake.
16 Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Ko eni, vakai, ʻoku ʻi hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻe toko nimangofulu; ʻoku mau kole, ke ke tuku ʻakinautolu ke ʻalu, ʻo kumi ki hoʻo ʻeiki: telia naʻa kuo toʻo hake ia ʻe he Laumālie ʻo Sihova, mo ne lī hifo ia ki ha tumuʻaki moʻunga, pe ki ha teleʻa.” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻE ʻikai te mou fekau [ha niʻihi].”
Wakamwambia, “Ona sasa, miongoni mwa watumishi wako kuna watu hamsini hodari. Tunakuomba Waache waende, na kumtafuta bwana wako, endapo huyo Roho wa Yahwe alipomchukua juu na kumtupa juu ya mlima mmoja au kwenye bonde moja.” Elisha akajibu, “Hapana, msiwatume.”
17 Pea ʻi heʻenau kole fakafiu kiate ia, naʻa ne pehē, “Fekau pe.” Ko ia naʻa nau fekau atu ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nimangofulu; pea naʻa nau kumi ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu, ka naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia.
Lakini walimsihi Elisha hadi akaona aibu, akasema, “Watume.”Ndipo wakawatuma watu hamsini, na wakatafuta kwa mda wa siku tatu, lakini hawakumpata.
18 Pea ʻi heʻenau toe hoko mai kiate ia, (he naʻa ne tatali pe ʻi Seliko, ) naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai naʻaku tala kiate kimoutolu, Ke ʻoua naʻa mou ʻalu?”
Wakarudi kwa Elisha, wakati alipokuwa bado yuko Yeriko, na akasema, “Je sikusema, 'msiende'?”
19 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tangata ʻoe kolo kia ʻIlaisa, “Vakai koe, ʻoku matamatalelei ʻae tuʻuʻanga ʻoe kolo ni, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku sio ki ai ʻa hoku ʻeiki: ka ʻoku kovi ʻa hono vai, pea ʻoku kakā ʻae kelekele.”
Watu wa mjini wakamwambia Elisha, “Ona, tunakuomba, hali ya mjini hapa ni pazuri, kama bwana wangu awezavyo kuona, lakini maji ni mabaya na hiyo nchi haiwezi kuzaa matunda.”
20 Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻOmi kiate au ha ipu kelekele foʻou, pea ʻai ha māsima ki ai.” Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia kiate ia.
Elisha akajibu, “Nileteeni bakuli jipya na muweke chumvi ndani ya hilo bakuli,” hivyo wakamletea.
21 Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ki he punaʻanga ʻoe ngaahi vai, mo ne lī ki ai ʻae māsima, mo ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Kuo u fakamoʻui ʻae ngaahi vai ni; ʻe ʻikai toe hoko mei ai ha mate pe ha taʻefua.’”
Elisha akaenda hadi kwenye chemichemi za maji na kutupia chumvi ndani; halafu akasema, “Yahwe asema hivi, 'Nimeyaponya haya maji. Kuanzia mda huu, hakutakuwa na kifo au nchi isiyozaa matunda.
22 Pea pehē, naʻe fakamoʻui ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni, ʻo fakatatau ki he lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe ʻIlaisiā.
“Hivyo hayo maji yakaponya hata leo, kwa lile neno ambalo Elisha aliongea.
23 Pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake mei he potu ko ia ki Peteli: pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu hake ʻi he hala, naʻe hū mai mei he kolo ʻae tamaiki iiki, ʻonau manuki kiate ia, mo nau pehē ki ai, “ʻAlu hake, ʻa koe ko e tula; ʻalu hake ʻa koe ko e tula ē.”
Ndipo Elisha akapanda kutoka pale mpaka Betheli. Naye alipokuwa akienda hadi kwenye barabara, wakatokea vijana nje ya mji na kumtania, wakamwambia, “Panda juu, wewe mwenye kipara! Panda juu, wewe mwenye kipara!”
24 Pea naʻa ne tangaki ki mui, mo ne sio kiate kinautolu, pea ne fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe haʻu mei he vao ʻae ongo pea fefine ʻe ua, ʻo na haehae ʻae fānau ʻe toko fāngofulu ma toko ua ʻiate kinautolu.
Elisha alipotazama nyuma yake na kuwaona; alimwambia Yahwe awalaani. Ndipo dubu wa kike wawili wakatokea kichakani na kuwajeruhi vijana arobaini na mbili.
25 Pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu mei he potu ko ia ki he moʻunga ko Kameli, pea naʻa ne foki mai mei ai ki Samēlia.
Ndipo Elisha alipoondoka pale na kuelekea Mlima Karmeli, na kutoka huko alirudi samaria.
