2 Ahemfo 6
1 Da bi, adiyifo kuw baa Elisa nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɛnea wo ara wuhu no, baabi a yɛne wo hyia ha yi sua.
Ixuku labaphrofethi lathi ku-Elisha, “Khangela, indawo esihlala kiyo lawe kayisasanelanga.
2 Ma yɛnkɔ Asubɔnten Yordan ho a nnua bebree wɔ hɔ. Ɛhɔ de, yebetumi asi ɔdan foforo, ahyia mu wɔ hɔ.” Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Eye, monkɔyɛ.”
Asiye eJodani lapho esizagamula khona izigodo sakhe indawo yokuhlala.” U-Elisha wathi, “Kulungile, hambani.”
3 Obi kaa nʼadwene se, “Mesrɛ wo, bɛka yɛn ho na yɛnkɔ.” Ɔkae se, “Mate yɛbɛkɔ.”
Omunye wabo wathi, “Ungazake uhambe lezinceku zakho na?” U-Elisha wathi, “Kulungile ngizahamba.”
4 Bere a woduu Yordan ho no, wofii ase buu nnua.
Ngakho wasehamba labo. Baya eJodani bafika baqalisa ukugamula izigodo.
5 Nanso wɔn mu baako rebu dua no, nʼabonnua hɔn tɔɔ asu no mu. Ɔteɛɛ mu se, “O me wura! Ɛyɛ abonnua a mekɔsrɛe!”
Omunye wathi egamula, ihloka lakhe laqamuka isihloko salo sawela emanzini. Wasekhala esithi, “Nkosi yami, ihloka leli bengilibolekile.”
6 Onyankopɔn nipa no bisae se, “Ɛhefa na ɛtɔe?” Ɔkyerɛɛ Elisa baabi ko no, Elisa twaa pema, na ɔtow kyenee asu no mu. Ɛhɔ ara abonnua ti no pagyaw ne ho, bɛtɛn asu no ani.
Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasebuza esithi, “Liwele ngaphi?” Uthe esemtshengisile indawo yakhona, u-Elisha wagamula uswazi waluphosela khonapho, lokho kwenza ihloka lelo landenda.
7 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma so yi.” Na ɔbarima no teɛɛ ne nsa yii.
Wasesithi, “Lenyule emanzini.” Umuntu lowo welula isandla sakhe walenyula.
8 Bere a Aramhene ne Israel redi ako no, ɔne ne mpanyimfo tuu agyina, kae se, “Yɛbɛboaboa yɛn asraafo ano wɔ ha anaa ɛha.”
Inkosi yase-Aramu yayisempini ilwisana labako-Israyeli. Ngemva kokukhulumisana lezikhulu zayo inkosi yathi, “Inkamba yami ngizayimisa endaweni ethile.”
9 Ntɛm pa ara, Onyankopɔn nipa Elisa bɔɔ Israelhene kɔkɔ se, “Ntwiw mmɛn beae hɔ, efisɛ Aramfo no reyɛ nhyehyɛe, aboaboa wɔn asraafo ano wɔ hɔ.”
Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wathumela ilizwi enkosini yako-Israyeli lisithi, “Qaphela ungedluli kuleyana indawo, ngoba ama-Aramu azakwehla ayekhona.”
10 Enti Israelhene hwɛɛ beae a Onyame nipa no kyerɛe no no. Elisa kɔɔ so bɔɔ ɔhene no kɔkɔ mpɛn pii, na ɛmaa nʼani daa fam wɔ mmeae a ɛtete saa no ho.
Ngakho inkosi yako-Israyeli yahlolisisa kuleyondawo eyayiqanjwe ngumuntu kaNkulunkulu. U-Elisha wakuphinda enkosini lokhu kuxwayisa kanenginengi, ukuze izivikele ezindaweni ezinjengalezi.
11 Aramhene werɛ how wɔ asɛm yi ho. Ɔfrɛɛ ne mpanyimfo bisaa wɔn se, “Mo mu hena na ɔyɛ ɔfatwafo no? Hena na ɔka me nhyehyɛe a mayɛ kyerɛ Israelhene?”
Lokhu kwayithukuthelisa inkosi yase-Aramu. Yabiza izikhulu zayo yazihwabhela yathi, “Aliyikungitshela yini ukuthi phakathi kwethu ngubani oseceleni lenkosi yako-Israyeli na?”
12 Mpanyimfo no mu baako buae se, “Me wura, ɛnyɛ yɛn. Elisa a ɔyɛ odiyifo wɔ Israel no na ɔka wo kokoamsɛm kyerɛ Israelhene.”
Esinye sezikhulu zakhe sathi, “Kakho phakathi kwethu nkosi yami, kodwa u-Elisha, umphrofethi wako-Israyeli, ulakho ukutshela inkosi yako-Israyeli ngalawo mazwi owakhuluma usendlini yakho yokulala.”
13 Ɔhene no hyɛe se, “Monkɔhwehwɛ baabi a Elisa wɔ, na yɛbɛsoma asraafo ama wɔakɔkyere no.” Na nkra bae se, “Elisa wɔ Dotan.”
Inkosi yabalaya yathi, “Hambani liyemdinga lapho akhona, ukuze ngithumele amadoda ayemthumba.” Kwavela impendulo ethi, “UseDothani.”
14 Enti anadwo bi, Aramhene somaa asraafo bebree ne wɔn nteaseɛnam ne wɔn apɔnkɔ kotwaa dantaban faa kuropɔn no ho.
Inkosi yasithumela amabhiza lezinqola zokulwa kanye lamabutho aqinileyo. Bahamba ebusuku bahle bagombolozela umuzi wakhona.
15 Bere a Onyankopɔn nipa no somfo sɔree ahemadakye, sii afikyiri no, na asraafo, apɔnkɔ ne nteaseɛnam atwa hɔ ahyia. Ɔteɛɛ mu kyerɛɛ Elisa se, “O, me wura! Dɛn na yɛnyɛ?”
Kuthe inceku yomuntu kaNkulunkulu ivuka ekuseni ngelanga elilandelayo yaphuma phandle yathola amabutho alamabhiza lezinqola zokulwa sezihonqolozele idolobho. Inceku yethuka yathi, “Maye, nkosi yami, sizakwenzenjani na?”
16 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nsuro na yɛwɔ dɔm sen wɔn.”
Umphrofethi wathi, “Ungesabi. Labo abalathi banengi kulalabo abangakubo.”
17 Afei, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, bue nʼani na ma onhu ade,” Awurade buee ne somfo ani, na ɔmaa nʼani so no, ohuu sɛ Elisa nkyɛn mu a ɛkyerɛ bepɔw no, ogya apɔnkɔ ne nteaseɛnam na ayɛ hɔ ma.
U-Elisha wasekhuleka wathi, “Oh Thixo, vula amehlo akhe ukuze abone.” Ngakho uThixo wavula amehlo enceku, yakhangela yabona amaqaqa agcwele amabhiza lezinqola zokulwa ezomlilo zihonqolozele u-Elisha.
18 Bere a Aramfo asraafo bɔ puaa wɔn no, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, mesrɛ wo, ma wɔn ani mfurafura.” Na Awurade yɛɛ nea Elisa bisae no.
Kuthe izitha zisondela kuye, u-Elisha wakhuleka kuThixo wathi, “Tshaya lababantu babe yiziphofu.” Ngakho wabaphumputhekisa, njengokucela kuka-Elisha.
19 Na Elisa fii adi, kɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Moafa ɔkwan bɔne so aba. Ɛnyɛ kurow a morehwehwɛ no ni. Munni mʼakyi, na mede mo bɛkɔ onipa a morehwehwɛ no no nkyɛn.” Na odii wɔn anim koduu Samaria.
U-Elisha wabatshela wathi, “Akusiwo umgwaqo njalo akusiwo umuzi eliwudingayo. Ngilandelani, ngizalikhokhela liye emuntwini elimdingayo.” Ngakho wabakhokhelela eSamariya.
20 Na woduu Samaria pɛ, Elisa bɔɔ mpae se, “Awurade, afei bue wɔn ani, na ma wonhu ade.” Na Awurade yɛe, na wohuu sɛ wɔwɔ Samaria.
Sebephakathi komuzi, u-Elisha wathi, “Thixo, vula amehlo alababantu ukuze babone.” Ngakho uThixo wavula amehlo abo, bazibonela ukuthi babephakathi kweSamariya.
21 Bere a Israelhene huu wɔn no, ɔteɛɛ mu, bisaa Elisa se, “Mʼagya, minkunkum wɔn ana?”
Inkosi yako-Israyeli ithe ibabona, yabuza ku-Elisha yathi, “Ngibabulale yini, baba? Ngibabulale na?”
22 Elisa buaa no se, “Nkunkum wɔn. So wubekunkum wɔn a wode wʼankasa afoa ne agyan afa wɔn nnommum no ana? Ma wɔn aduan ne nsu, na wonnidi, nnom na ma wɔnsan nkɔ wɔn wura nkyɛn.”
Yena waphendula wathi, “Ungababulali. Kambe ungababulala yini ngenkemba loba ngomtshoko wakho abantu obathumbileyo. Baphe ukudla lamanzi ukuze badle babe sebebuyela enkosini yabo.”
23 Enti ɔhene no too wɔn pon kɛse, na wodidi, nom wiee no ɔma wɔsan kɔɔ wɔn hene nkyɛn. Enti Aramfo afowfo no twee wɔn ho fii Israel asase ho koraa.
Inkosi yako-Israyeli yasibenzela idili elikhulu, bathe sebeqedile ukudla lokunatha, yabakhulula ukuba bahambe, ngakho basuka babuyela enkosini yabo. Kwathi amaxuku amabutho ase-Aramu ayehlala ehlasela elako-Israyeli akhawula ukuhlasela.
24 Akyiri no, Aramhene Ben-Hadad boaboaa nʼakofo nyinaa ano, de wɔn kotuaa Samaria ano.
Ngemva kwesikhathi, uBheni-Hadadi inkosi yase-Aramu yaqoqa amabutho ayo wonke yayavimbezela umuzi waseSamariya.
25 Ɛbaa saa no, ɔkɔm kɛse baa kurow no mu. Ɛyɛɛ kakra no, na wɔtɔn afurum ti nsania ani dwetɛ kilogram baako, na aborɔnoma bin kuruwa ma, na ne bo yɛ nsania ani dwetɛ gram aduonum awotwe.
Kwaba lendlala enkulu eSamariya ngesikhathi sokuvinjezelwa kwayo; ngakho inhloko kababhemi yayithengiswa ngamashekeli esiliva angamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, legajana lombhida othile ngamashekeli amahlanu esiliva.
26 Da bi a Israelhene nam kurow no fasu ho no, ɔbea bi kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔsrɛɛ no se, “Me wura ɔhene, mesrɛ wo, boa me.”
Kwathi ngolunye usuku inkosi yako-Israyeli ihambahamba phezu komduli womuzi, owesifazane othile wamemeza esithi kuyo, “Akungincede, baba nkosi yami!”
27 Obuaa no se, “Sɛ Awurade ammoa wo a, dɛn na metumi ayɛ? Minni aduan anaa nsa a mede bɛma wo.”
Inkosi yaphendula yathi, “Nxa uThixo engakusizi, mina kambe ngizaluthatha ngaphi uncedo? Ngizaluthatha esikhamelweni sewayini yini loba esizeni sokubhulela na?”
28 Ɔhene no bisaa no se, “Dɛn asɛm?” Obuae se, “Saa ɔbea yi kae se, yɛnwe me babarima da bi, na ade kye a, yɛawe ɔno nso de.
Wasebuza wathi, “Kodwa uhlutshwa yini?” Owesifazane waphendula wathi, “Owesifazane lo uthe kimi, ‘Letha umntanakho ukuba simudle lamuhla, kuzakuthi kusasa sidle owami.’
29 Enti yɛnoaa me babarima wee. Afei, ade kyee no, meka kyerɛɛ no se, ‘Kum wo babarima no ma yɛnwe,’ nanso na ɔde no akosie.”
Ngakho simphekile umntanami samudla. Ngosuku olulandelayo ngasengisithi, ‘Letha umntanakho ukuba simudle.’ Kodwa yena ubesemfihlile.”
30 Na ɔhene no tee saa asɛm no, osunsuan ne ntade mu. Na ɔhene no nenam ɔfasu no ho no, nnipa no huu sɛ ɔhyɛ atweaatam wɔ nʼase.
Inkosi ithe isizwa okwakutshiwo ngowesifazane lowo yadabula izigqoko zayo. Inkosi yayihamba phezu komduli, abantu bayikhangela, babona ukuthi isigqoko sayo sangaphansi sasingesokulila.
31 Ɔhene no kaa ntam se, “Sɛ nnɛ mankum Safat babarima Elisa a, Onyankopɔn nkum me.”
Inkosi yathi, “Sengathi uNkulunkulu angangihlanekela kubi nxa ikhanda lika-Elisha indodana kaShafathi kungasa lilokhu limi phezu kwamahlombe akhe lamuhla!”
32 Elisa te ne fi a ɔne Israel mpanyimfo reyɛ nhyiamu na ɔhene somaa abɔfo kɔfrɛɛ no. Nanso ansa na abɔfo no rebedu no, Elisa ka kyerɛɛ mpanyimfo no se, “Owudifo asoma ɔbarima bi sɛ ommekum me. Sɛ odu ha a, to pon no mu, na ɔnka akyi. Na ɛrenkyɛ ne wura no bedi nʼakyi aba.”
U-Elisha wayehlezi endlini yakhe labadala babehlezi laye. Inkosi yasithumela isithunywa phambili, kodwa sithe singakafiki u-Elisha wathi ebadaleni, “Liyakubona yini ukuthi umbulali lo usethumele umuntu ukuba azoquma ikhanda lami na? Khangelani, ekufikeni kwesithunywa lapha libovala umnyango libambe isivalo siqine. Kalizizwa yini izisinde zenkosi yaso ngemva kwaso na?”
33 Elisa gu so rekasa no, ɔbɔfo no bae. Na ɔhene no kae se, “Ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔde saa ɔhaw yi abrɛ yɛn! Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ mekɔ so twɛn Awurade?”
Kwathi esakhuluma, isithunywa sahle safika. Ngakho inkosi yathi, “Uhlupho lonke lolu luvela kuThixo. Pho-ke ngisamlindelelani uThixo na?”
