2 Ruodhi 8

1 Koro Elisha nowachone dhako mane ochiero wuode niya, “Wuogi idhi mabor gi joodi kuma inyalo dake bangʼ ndalo moko, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osekelo kech ma biro tieko higni abiriyo.”

Then spake Elisha unto the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn: for the LORD hath called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land seven years.

2 Dhakono nodhi motimo kaka ngʼat Nyasaye nowacho, en kod joode ne giwuok ma gidhi mabor e piny jo-Filistia ma gidakie higni abiriyo.

And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.

3 Ka higni abiriyo norumo noduogo koa e piny jo-Filistia modhi kwayo ruoth mondo odwokne ode kod lope.

And it came to pass at the seven years’ end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines: and she went forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.

4 Ruoth ne wuoyo gi Gehazi jatich ngʼat Nyasaye, kowachone niya, “Nyisa e honni madongo ma Elisha osetimo.”

And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha hath done.

5 Kane oyudo Gehazi nyiso ruoth kaka ne Elisha ochiero ngʼato motho, to dhako mane Elisha ochiero wuode cha nochopo kanyo mondo okwa ruoth odwokne ode kod lope. Eka Gehazi nowachone ruoth niya, “Ruodha, ma e dhakono, kendo ma e wuode mane Elisha odwogone ngimane.”

And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this [is] the woman, and this [is] her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

6 Eka ruoth nopenjo dhakono kuom wach nyathineno kendo nowachone ni en kamano. Eka ruoth nogolo chik ne jatelo kuom dhakono kowacho niya, “Dwokne dhakono gige duto, kaachiel gi ohala duto mosewuok e puotheno chakre chiengʼ mane oa e pinyni nyaka chiengʼ mane oduogoe.”

And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that [was] hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.

7 Chiengʼ moro Elisha nodhi Damaski moyudo ka Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram tuo. Kane onyis ruoth ni ngʼat Nyasaye osebiro mochopo ka,

And Elisha came to Damascus; and Ben-hadad the king of Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come hither.

8 nowachone Hazael niya, “Kaw mich mondo idhi iromnego ngʼat Nyasaye. Kone openj Jehova Nyasaye ni, ‘Bende abiro chango kuom tuoni?’”

And the king said unto Hazael, Take a present in thine hand, and go, meet the man of God, and enquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

9 Hazael nodhi romo kod Elisha kotingʼo mich mar mwandu motingʼ gi ngamia piero angʼwen ma gin gik mabeyo mag piny Damaski. Nodhi ir Elisha mochungʼ e nyime mowachone niya, “Wuodi ma Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram oora mondo apenji ka bende obiro chango kuom tuoni.”

So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels’ burden, and came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Ben-hadad king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

10 Elisha nodwoke niya, “Dhi iwachne ni, ‘Kuom adier obiro chango.’ To kata kamano Jehova Nyasaye osenyisa ni obiro tho bangʼe.”

And Elisha said unto him, Go, say unto him, Thou mayest certainly recover: howbeit the LORD hath shewed me that he shall surely die.

11 Elisha nochomo wangʼe tir kuom Hazael, mi Hazael wiye nokuot. Bangʼe ngʼat Nyasaye nochako ywak.

And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.

12 Hazael nopenjo Elisha niya, “Ruodha, iywago angʼo?” To nodwoke niya, “Aywak nikech angʼeyo masira ma ibiro kelone jo-Israel. Ibiro wangʼo kuondegi mochiel motegno, ibiro nego yawuotgi matindo gi ligangla, ibiro nyono nyithindgi matindo kendo ibiro baro iye mon ma yach.”

And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.

13 Hazael nopenjo niya, “Ere kaka jatichni marom gi guok aguoka nyalo timo gik ma kama?” Elisha nodwoko niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osenyisa ni ibiro bedo ruodh jo-Aram.”

And Hazael said, But what, [is] thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, The LORD hath shewed me that thou [shalt be] king over Syria.

14 Eka Hazael noa ir Elisha modok ir ruodhe. To kane Ben-Hadad openje niya, “Angʼo mane Elisha owachoni.” Hazael nodwoke niya, “Nowachona ni kuom adier ibiro chango.”

So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told me [that] thou shouldest surely recover.

15 To kinyne nokawo nanga mapek mobudo e pi, mi oumo wangʼ ruoth mothungʼe nyaka otho. Eka Hazael nobedo ruoth kare.

And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth, and dipped [it] in water, and spread [it] on his face, so that he died: and Hazael reigned in his stead.

16 E higa mar abich mar Joram wuod Ahab ruodh Israel, kane Jehoshafat ne ruodh Juda, Jehoram wuod Jehoshafat nochako tich kaka ruodh Juda.

And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat [being] then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

17 Ne en ja-higni piero adek gariyo kane obedo ruodh Juda, kendo norito Jerusalem kuom higni aboro.

Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

18 Noluwo timbe mag ruodhi Israel, mana kaka jood Ahab notimo, nimar nokendo nyar Ahab. Notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.

And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.

19 Kata kamano, Jehova Nyasaye ne ok otieko jo-Juda nikech noparo Daudi jatichne. Nosesingore ne Daudi gi ogandane ni ginibed e loch nyaka chiengʼ.

Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant’s sake, as he promised him to give him alway a light, [and] to his children.

20 E ndalo loch Jehoram, Edom nongʼanyo ne Juda mi gibedo gi ruodhgi giwegi.

In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

21 Omiyo Jehoram nodhi Zair gi gechene duto mag lweny. Jo-Edom nolwore kaachiel gi gechene mag lweny, to nochiewo gotieno momwomogi; ka jolweny mage to noringo modok dala.

So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.

22 Nyaka chil kawuono jo-Edom pod ongʼanyo ne jo-Juda. Jo-Libna bende nongʼanyo e ndalono.

Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

23 To kuom weche moko mane otimore e ndalo loch Jehoram, kod gik moko duto mane otimo, ondiki e kitepe motingʼo weche mag ndalo mag ruodhi Juda.

And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24 Jehoram notho moyweyo gi kwerene e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi, kendo wuode ma Ahazia nobedo ruoth bangʼe.

And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.

25 E higa mar apar gariyo mar loch Joram wuod Ahab ma ruodh Israel, Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nobedo e loch.

In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign.

26 Ahazia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gariyo kane obedo ruoth, kendo norito piny kuom achiel kodak Jerusalem. Min mare ne nyinge Athalia, ma nyakwar Omri ruodh Israel.

Two and twenty years old [was] Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name [was] Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

27 Noluwo timbe mag od Ahab kendo notimo timbe mamono e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka od Ahab nosetimo, nimar ne gin wede e kendgi gi jood Ahab.

And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in the sight of the LORD, as [did] the house of Ahab: for he [was] the son in law of the house of Ahab.

28 Ahazia gi Joram wuod Ahab nodhi kedo gi Hazael ruodh Aram e piny Ramoth Gilead. Jo-Aram nohinyo Joram;

And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramoth-gilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.

29 omiyo ruoth Joram nodok Jezreel mondo ochangi kuom hinyruok mane jo-Aram ohinyego e piny Ramoth ka nokedo gi Hazael ruodh Aram. Eka Ahazia wuod Jehoram ruodh Juda nodhi Jezreel mondo one Joram wuod Ahab nikech nosehinye.

And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
