1 Da bi, Elisa mfɛfo adiyifo no mu baako kunafo baa ne nkyɛn, besu kyerɛɛ no se, “Me kunu a na ɔsom wo no awu. Na wunim sɛnea na osuro Awurade. Nanso mprempren obi a mede no ka aba rehunahuna se, ɔbɛfa me mmabarima baanu sɛ nkoa.”
Kwasekukhala kuElisha umfazi othile wabafazi bamadodana abaprofethi esithi: Inceku yakho umkami sewafa; lawe uyazi ukuthi inceku yakho yayiyesaba iNkosi; sekufikile umkweledisi ukuzithathela abantwana bami ababili babe yizigqili.
2 Elisa bisaa no se, “Dɛn na metumi ayɛ de aboa wo? Kyerɛ me nneɛma a wowɔ wɔ fie.” Obuae se, “Minni hwee sɛ ngo ahina baako.”
UElisha wasesithi kuye: Ngingakwenzelani? Ngitshela, ulani endlini? Wasesithi: Incekukazi yakho kayilalutho endlini, ngaphandle kwesiphiso samafutha.
3 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ “Kɔfɛm nhina dodow biara a wubenya afi wo nnamfonom ne wo mfɛfo nkyɛn.
Wasesithi: Hamba uyezebolekela izitsha ezivela phandle, kubomakhelwane bakho bonke, izitsha ezingelalutho, zingabi nlutshwana.
4 Afei, fa wo mmabarima no kɔ wo fi, na to pon mu. Hwie ngo no fi wʼahina no mu, gugu nhina no mu. Nea ɛbɛyɛ ma biara, yi si nkyɛn.”
Nxa usungenile uzivalele wena lamadodana akho umnyango, uthele kulezizitsha zonke; lokugcweleyo ukubeke eceleni.
5 Enti ɔyɛɛ saa. Ne mmabarima no de nhina bebree brɛɛ no, ma ɔhyehyɛɛ no amaama.
Wasesuka-ke kuye wazivalela yena lamadodana akhe umnyango; bazisondeza kuye, wathulula.
6 Ankyɛ na emu biara yɛɛ ma tɛnn. Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne mmabarima no mu baako se, “Brɛ me ahina foforo.” Ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ebi nni hɔ bio.” Na afei ngo no a ɔrehwie no sae.
Kwasekusithi izitsha sezigcwele wathi endodaneni yakhe: Ngilethela njalo isitsha. Yasisithi kuye: Kakuselasitsha. Amafutha asesima.
7 Bere a ɔkaa asɛm a asi no kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn nipa no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Afei, tɔn ngo no, na fa tua wʼaka, na sika no bi bɛka ama wode ahwɛ wo ho ne wo mmabarima no.”
Wasesiza wamazisa umuntu kaNkulunkulu; wasesithi: Hamba uyethengisa amafutha, uhlawule isikwelede sakho; wena-ke lamadodana akho liphile ngaseleyo.
8 Da koro bi, Elisa kɔɔ Sunem kurow mu. Na ɔbea ɔdefo bi te kurow no mu. Ɔtoo nsa frɛɛ Elisa sɛ ommedidi. Efi saa bere no, bere biara a obetwa mu wɔ hɔ no, ɔfa hɔ kodidi.
Kwasekusithi ngolunye usuku uElisha wedlulela eShunemi lapho okwakulowesifazana oyisikhulu owamcindezela ukuthi adle isinkwa. Kwakusithi-ke lanini esedlula, aphambukele khona ukuthi adle isinkwa.
9 Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne kunu se, “Migye di sɛ saa ɔbarima yi a ɔtaa ba ha yi yɛ Onyankopɔn nipa kronkron.
Wasesithi kumkakhe: Khangela-ke, ngiyazi ukuthi lo ungumuntu ongcwele kaNkulunkulu, owedlula kithi njalonjalo.
10 Ma yensiesie ɔdan bi mma no wɔ soro hɔ na yɛmfa mpa, ɔpon, akongua ne kanea nsi mu mma no. Na bere biara a ɔbɛba ha no, wanya baabi asoɛ.”
Ake senze ikamelo elincinyane eliphezulu emdulini, simfakele lapho umbheda letafula lesihlalo lesiqobane sesibane; kuzakuthi-ke lapho efika kithi aphambukele khona.
11 Da bi, Elisa san baa Sunem. Ɔkɔɔ ne soro dan no mu kɔsoɛe.
Kwasekusithi ngolunye usuku wafika khona, waphambukela ekamelweni eliphezulu, walala khona.
12 Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne somfo Gehasi se, “Ka kyerɛ ɔbea no se, mepɛ sɛ meka asɛm bi kyerɛ no.” Ɔbea no bae no,
Wasesithi kuGehazi inceku yakhe: Biza lo umShunamikazi. Esembizile, wema phambi kwakhe.
13 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Ka kyerɛ no se, yɛn ani asɔ ne som pa a wasom yɛn no. Na bisa no nea yɛn so yebetumi ayɛ ama no. Ɔpɛ sɛ midi ne ho adanse kyerɛ ɔhene anaa asraafo sahene no?” Obuae se, “Dabi, efisɛ mʼabusuafo hwɛ me yiye.”
Wasesithi kuyo: Tshono kuye-ke uthi: Khangela, usinakekele ngakho konke lokhukunaka; kuyini ongakwenzelwa? Kukhona ongakukhulunyelwa enkosini kumbe enduneni yebutho yini? Wasesithi: Ngihlala phakathi kwabantu bakithi.
14 Akyiri no, Elisa bisaa Gehasi se, “Dɛn na wugye di sɛ yebetumi ayɛ ama no?” Ɔtow maa no se, “Onni babarima na ne kunu nso abɔ akwakoraa.”
Wasesithi: Kuyini-ke angakwenzelwa? UGehazi wasesithi: Qiniso, kalamntwana, lomkakhe usemdala.
15 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Frɛ no bra bio.” Ɔbea no bae no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no wɔ ɔpon no ano se,
Wasesithi: Mbize. Esembizile, wema emnyango.
16 “Afe sesɛɛ saa bere yi ara mu, na ɔbabarima da wo srɛ so.” Ɔteɛɛ mu se, “Dabi, me wura, mesrɛ wo, ntwa me nkontompo saa. Onyankopɔn nipa.”
Wasesithi: Ngalesisikhathi esimisiweyo njengokwesikhathi sempilo uzagona umntwana. Kodwa wathi: Hatshi, nkosi yami, muntu kaNkulunkulu, ungayiqambeli amanga incekukazi yakho.
17 Na ampa ara, bere tiaa bi akyi no, ɔbea no nyinsɛnee. Na afe saa bere no ara, ɔwoo ɔbabarima sɛnea Elisa kae no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
Owesifazana wasekhulelwa, wabeletha umntwana ngalesosikhathi esimisiweyo njengokwesikhathi sempilo uElisha ayesitshilo kuye.
18 Ne ba no nyin no, da bi, ɔkɔsraa nʼagya a na ɔne nʼapaafo reyɛ adwuma.
Esekhulile umntwana, kwathi ngosuku oluthile waphuma waya kuyise kubavuni.
19 Prɛko pɛ, ɔkae se, “Me ti pae me! Me ti pae me!” Nʼagya ka kyerɛɛ nʼapaafo no mu baako se, “Fa no kɔ fie kɔma ne na.”
Wasesithi kuyise: Ikhanda lami! Ikhanda lami! Wasesithi encekwini: Mthwale umuse kunina.
20 Ɔpaani no de no kɔɔ fie. Ne na gyee no too ne srɛ so. Nanso, eduu owigyinae mu no, owui.
Isimthwele yamusa kunina, wahlala emadolweni akhe kwaze kwaba semini, wasesifa.
21 Ɔpagyaw no de no kɔtoo Onyankopɔn nipa no mpa so. Ɔtoo pon no mu gyaw no hɔ kɔe.
Wasesenyuka, wamlalisa embhedeni womuntu kaNkulunkulu, wamvalela, waphuma.
22 Ɔsomaa ɔbɔfo kɔbɔɔ ne kunu amanneɛ se, “Soma apaafo no baako na ɔmfa afurum mmra, sɛnea metumi akodu Onyankopɔn nipa no hɔ ntɛm, asan aba.”
Wasememeza umkakhe wathi: Ake uthume kimi enye yezinceku lomunye wabobabhemi, ukuze ngigijime ngiye emuntwini kaNkulunkulu, ngibuye futhi.
23 Obisae se, “Adɛn nti na wopɛ sɛ wokɔ nnɛ yi ara? Ɛnyɛ Ɔsram Foforo Afahyɛ, na ɛnyɛ homeda nso.” Nanso ɔkae se, “Ɛwɔ mu saa.”
Wasesithi. Uyelani kuye lamuhla? Kakusikuthwasa kwenyanga njalo kakusisabatha. Owesifazana wasesithi: Kulungile.
24 Enti ɔhyehyɛɛ afurum no, ka kyerɛɛ ɔpaani no se, “Ka wo ho. Ɛnyɛ me nti na wobɛtɔ wo bo ase, na mmom, kɔ ara, gye sɛ maka sɛ tɔ wo bo ase.”
Esembophelele isihlalo ubabhemi, wathi encekwini yakhe: Tshaya uhambe, ungangibambeleli ekuhambeni, ngaphandle ngikutshele.
25 Ɔrebedu Onyankopɔn nipa no nkyɛn wɔ bepɔw Karmel so no, Elisa huu no wɔ akyirikyiri. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Hwɛ, ɔbea a ofi Sunem no reba.
Wahamba-ke, weza emuntwini kaNkulunkulu entabeni iKharmeli. Kwasekusithi umuntu kaNkulunkulu embona esiza, wathi kuGehazi inceku yakhe: Khangela, nanguyana umShunamikazi.
26 Tu mmirika kohyia no, na bisa no se, ‘Wo ne wo kunu ne wo ba ho ye ana?’” Ɔbea no buae Gehasi se, “Yɛn nyinaa ho ye.”
Khathesi akugijime umhlangabeze, uthi kuye: Kulungile yini kuwe? Kulungile yini ngomkakho? Kulungile yini ngomntwana? Wasesithi: Kulungile.
27 Nanso ɔbaa Onyankopɔn nipa no nkyɛn wɔ bepɔw no so no, ɔhwee ne nan ase, soo nʼanammɔn mu. Gehasi sum no, nanso Onyankopɔn nipa no kaa se, “Gyaa no. Biribi reteetee no, na Awurade nso nkyerɛɛ me dekode no.”
Esefikile entabeni kumuntu kaNkulunkulu wabamba inyawo zakhe. Kodwa uGehazi wasondela ukumsunduza asuke. Kodwa umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathi: Myekele, ngoba umphefumulo wakhe umunyu kuye, leNkosi ingifihlele lokhu, kayingitshelanga.
28 Na ɔbea no kae se, “Wo ara me wura, wo na wokae se, menya ɔbabarima. Na manka ankyerɛ wo sɛ mma memfa mʼani nto so?”
Wasesithi: Ngangicelile indodana enkosini yami yini? Kangitshongo yini ukuthi: Ungangikhohlisi?
29 Na Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Gehasi se, “Boa wo ho, na mensoma wo, fa me pema no, na kɔ. Nkasa obiara ho wɔ ɔkwan so. Kɔ na fa pema no kɔto abofra no anim.”
UElisha wasesithi kuGehazi: Bopha ukhalo lwakho, uthathe udondolo lwami esandleni sakho, uhambe. Uba uhlangana lomuntu ungambingeleli, njalo uba umuntu ekubingelela ungamphenduli; ubeke udondolo lwami ebusweni bomntwana.
30 Na abarimaa no na kae se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase, na wo nso wote ase yi, merenkɔ fie gye sɛ woka me ho.” Enti Elisa san ne no kɔe.
Unina womntwana wasesithi: Kuphila kukaJehova lokuphila komphefumulo wakho, kangiyikukutshiya. Wasesukuma wamlandela.
31 Gehasi yɛɛ ntɛm dii kan, de pema no kɔtoo abofra no anim, nanso biribiara ansi. Nkwa ho nsɛnkyerɛnne biara amma. Ɔsan nʼakyi kohyiaa Elisa, bɔɔ no amanneɛ se, “Abofra no nnyanee ɛ.”
UGehazi wedlulela phambi kwabo, walubeka udondolo ebusweni bomntwana, kodwa kakubanga khona ilizwi njalo kwakungelakunaka. Wasebuyela ukumhlangabeza, wamtshela esithi: Umntwana kavukanga.
32 Bere a Elisa duu hɔ no, ampa na abofra no awu da odiyifo no mpa so.
UElisha esengenile endlini, khangela, umntwana wayefile, elaliswe embhedeni wakhe.
33 Ɔno nko kɔɔ hɔ, too ne ho pon mu, bɔɔ Awurade mpae.
Wasengena, wavala umnyango emva kwabo bobabili, wakhuleka eNkosini.
34 Afei, obutuw abofra no so, de nʼano tuaa abofra no ano, de nʼani fam abofra no ani, de ne nsa susoo abofra no nsa. Afei, abofra no ho fitii ase yɛɛ hyew bio.
Wenyuka walala phezu komntwana, wabeka umlomo wakhe phezu komlomo wakhe lamehlo akhe phezu kwamehlo akhe lezandla zakhe phezu kwezandla zakhe, wacambalala phezu kwakhe; inyama yomntwana yasikhudumala.
35 Elisa sɔre, dii akɔneaba wɔ ɔdan no mu kakra. Afei, ɔdaa abofra no so bio. Saa bere no, abofra no nwansii mpɛn ason, na ɔtew nʼani.
Wasebuyela, wahambahamba endlini waya kanye ngapha lakanye le, wasesenyuka wacambalala phezu kwakhe; umntwana wasethimula kwaze kwaba kasikhombisa, umntwana wasevula amehlo akhe.
36 Afei, Elisa somaa Gehasi se, “Frɛ abofra no na bra.” Ne na no bae no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wo ba no ni, fa no kɔ.”
Wasebiza uGehazi wathi: Mbize lo umShunamikazi. Wasembiza. Esefikile kuye, wathi kuye: Thatha umntanakho.
37 Ofi ahodwiriw mu hwee ne nan ase daa no ase. Afei, ɔfaa ne ba no, de no sian kɔɔ fam.
Wasengena, wawela ezinyaweni zakhe, wakhothamela emhlabathini, waphakamisa umntanakhe, waphuma.
38 Elisa san kɔɔ Gilgal, nanso na ɔkɔm asi asase no so. Da bi a adiyifokuw tete nʼanim no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ne somfo se, “Fa ɔsɛn kɛse si gya so, na yɛ abɔmu ma saa mmarima yi.”
UElisha wasebuyela eGiligali, njalo kwakukhona indlala elizweni, amadodana abaprofethi ayehlezi-ke phambi kwakhe, wathi encekwini yakhe: Beka imbiza enkulu eziko, uphekele abaprofethi ukudla okuphekiweyo.
39 Wɔn mu baako kɔɔ wuram sɛ ɔrekɔpɛ atosode, na onyaa ɛfere kotoku ma de bae. Otwitwa de guu ɔsɛn no mu a na onnim sɛ awuduru wɔ mu.
Omunye wasephuma waya egangeni ukukha imibhida, wathola intandela yeganga, wakha amajodwana ayo eganga, isembatho sakhe sagcwala, weza wawaqobelela embizeni yokudla okuphekiweyo, ngoba ayengawazi.
40 Na wodii kakraa bi pɛ, wɔteɛteɛ mu se, “Onyankopɔn nipa, awuduru wɔ abɔmu no mu!” Ɛno nti, wɔanni bio.
Basebethululela abantu ukuze badle; kwasekusithi besadla okokudla okuphekiweyo bona bamemeza bathi: Ukufa embizeni, muntu kaNkulunkulu! Njalo babengelakukudla.
41 Elisa kae se, “Mommrɛ me asikresiam kakra.” Ɔde guu ɔsɛn no mu, kae se, “Afei, ayɛ yiye nti munkodi.” Na anhaw wɔn bio.
Wasesithi: Lethani-ke impuphu. Waseyithela embizeni wathi: Thululela abantu, ukuze badle. Kwakungaselalutho oluyingozi embizeni.
42 Da bi, ɔbarima bi a ɔyɛ Baal-Salisani brɛɛ Onyankopɔn nipa no atoko foforo kotoku ma, ne brodo mua aduonu. Elisa kae se, “Fa ma adiyifokuw no, na wonni.”
Kwasekufika umuntu evela eBhali-Shalisha, walethela umuntu kaNkulunkulu ukudla kwezithelo zokuqala, izinkwa zebhali ezingamatshumi amabili, lezikhwebu zamabele amatsha emgodleni wakhe. Wasesithi: Banike abantu ukuze badle.
43 Ɔsomfo no teɛɛ mu se, “Wuse dɛn? Kakra yi na yɛmfa mma nnipa ɔha yi ana?” Nanso Elisa tii mu se, “Fa ma adiyifokuw no na wonni, na Awurade ka se, ‘Obiara bedi amee, na bi mpo bɛka akyi.’”
Kodwa inceku yakhe yathi: Ini, ngibeke lokhu phambi kwabantu abalikhulu? Wasesithi: Banike abantu ukuze badle, ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Bazakudla, batshiye.
44 Na ampa ara, obiara didi mee ma bi mpo kae, sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ no.
Yasikubeka phambi kwabo, badla, batshiya, njengokwelizwi leNkosi.
