2 Kings 7

1 Then Elisha said, Give ear to the word of the Lord: the Lord says, Tomorrow, about this time, a measure of good meal will be offered for the price of a shekel and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the market-place of Samaria.

Elisha’n adonbut in, “Pakai thupeh ngaijin! Pakaiyin hitin aseije, tuphat don jingteng le Samaria thil kijohna mun’ah antuitah chu atena khat dimchu dangka khatna kijohding, sakol chaang atena dim ni jong dangka khat dinga hung kijoh ding ahi,” ati.

2 Then the captain whose arm was supporting the king said to the man of God, Even if the Lord made windows in heaven, would such a thing be possible? And he said, Your eyes will see it, but you will not have a taste of the food.

Hichun lengpa kithopi jing asepai lamkaipa chun Pathen mipa jah a chun, “Pakai amatah in vanna kona van bangkot ahondoh a, hitobang thilchu abol ding hijongleh hithei mong ding hi nam?” atin ahileh Elisha’n jong adonbut in, “Athilsoh ho chu namit tah a vang namu ding ahin, khatcha naneh khah louding ahi,” atipeh tan ahi.

3 Now there were four lepers seated at the doorway into the town: and they said to one another, Why are we waiting here for death?

Tun khopi kelkot lutna kom’ah miphah li ana um’in ahi. Amaho chu khat le khat akidongto uvin, “Eiho hi thi ngah mai maija ihiti tou thim jingdiu hitam?” akitiuvin ahi.

4 If we say, We will go into the town, there is no food in the town, and we will come to our end there; and if we go on waiting here, death will come to us. Come then, let us give ourselves up to the army of Aram: if they let us go on living, then life will be ours; and if they put us to death, then death will be ours.

“Eiho hitia hi ium uleh anngol’a ithi teidiu ahi, khopi sunga lut jong leuhen kel-khoh jeh a ithi thou thou diu ahi, hijehchun Syria sepaite kom’ahin kipelut jing leuhen eihing hoi maitheiju ahi, ijemtia eitha jingu jongleh ithi thou thoudiu ahin, hichu phajolou ham?” akitiuve.

5 So in the half light they got up to go to the tents of Aram; but when they came to the outer line of tents, there was no one there.

Hiti chun jingpi phalvah-in amaho Syria ngahmun ah alut tauvin ahi. Hitia chu angah munna agalut uleh koimacha ana umpon ahi,

6 For the Lord had made the sound of carriages and horses, and the noise of a great army, come to the ears of the Aramaeans, so that they said to one another, Truly, the king of Israel has got the kings of the Hittites and of the Egyptians for a price to make an attack on us.

Ajeh chu Pathen’in sakol lhaigin leh sakol kangtalai lhaigin chule sepai tamtah hung lhailut gin akithonsah in ahileh Israel lengpa hin, “Hit mite le Egypt mite akikou uva eihin nokhum mu ahitai,” atiuva kaple penga jammang gam'a ahitauve.

7 So they got up and went in flight, in the half light, without their tents or their horses or their asses or any of their goods; they went in flight, fearing for their lives.

Hijeh a chu kicha behseh uva aponbuh u, asakol teu, asangan teu chuleh athildang ho jouse adalhah uva ahinkhou kihuhhing nading a ana jamdoh gam’ah ahitauve.

8 And when those lepers came to the outer line of tents, they went into one tent, and had food and drink, and took from it silver and gold and clothing, which they put in a secret place; then they came back and went into another tent from which they took more goods, which they put away in a secret place.

Miphah hochu ponbuh sungkhatna alut’un chuleh khat’ah alut’un aneuvin adon’un, sana dangka leh ponho akichom’un akisel’un ahi.

9 Then they said to one another, We are not doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we say nothing: if we go on waiting here till the morning, punishment will come to us. So let us go and give the news to those of the king's house.

Ajonan amaho akihouvun, “Ibol uhi adih tapoi, tunihi nikhopha khat ahibouve, hichehi eihon mitoh ichankhom lou uhi adihpoi, eihon hitia hi jing geija iche piuva ahileh hamsetna itotei diu ahi. Hijeh chun hung’un eiho cheu hitin lengte khopi sunga miho gahetsah uhite,” akitiuvin ahi.

10 So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they were.

Hiti chun amaho acheuvin khopi sunga kelkot ngah ho chu thilsoh ho agahetsah tauvin ahi. “Keiho Syria mite ngahmun na kalut’un ahile koimacha anaum tapon ahi! Sakol hole Sangan ho ana kihen nalaijin, ponbuh ho jong abang bang in ana um’in, mihem koimacha anaum tapon ahi,” atiuve.

11 Then the door-keepers, crying out, gave the news to those inside the king's house.

Hichun kelkot ngahho chun khopi sunga mipiho lah’a chun hasap in asamphong tauvin ahi.

12 Then the king got up in the night and said to his servants, This is my idea of what the Aramaeans have done to us. They have knowledge that we are without food; and so they have gone out of their tents, and are waiting secretly in the open country, saying, When they come out of the town, we will take them living and get into the town.

Lengpa chu jan khangkim in alupna a konin ahung thoudoh in, anoija lamkai pipui ho kom’a chun hitin aseitan ahi, “Keiman thilsoh hohi kahei, Syria mite hin eiho an ngolla ium uhi ahet ahin, hijeh a chu angah mun u adalhah uva gamlah’a gakisel’ah ahiuve. Amaho hin khopi idalhah uva ipotdoh tenguleh eihohi ahinga matna khopi chu lonkhum ding atiu ahi,” ati.

13 And one of his servants said in answer, Send men and let them take five of the horses which we still have in the town; if they keep their lives they will be the same as those of Israel who are still living here; if they come to their death they will be the same as all those of Israel who have gone to destruction: let us send and see.

Anoija lamkai holah’a khat chun ahin donbut’in, “Ipi hileh eihon gakholtoh poupou uhite. Sakol athimoh nga hokhu mangchao hitin akholtoh ding sol’u hite. Ijemtia achung'uva thilkhat ahungso tah jongleh, hilai mun ah umjong leu eiho chengto ithikhom thou thoudiu ahin, akhoh dehpoi,” ahin tin ahi.

14 So they took two horsemen; and the king sent them after the army of the Aramaeans, saying, Go and see.

Hiti chun sakol kangtalai nichu agongun lengpan Syria sepaite chunga thilsoh chu gakhol toh dingin asol tauvin ahi.

15 And they went after them as far as Jordan; and all the road was covered with clothing and vessels dropped by the Aramaeans in their flight. So those who were sent went back and gave the news to the king.

Amaho Jordan vadung geijin acheuvin Syria sepaite ponho, manchahho ajamcheh nauva apai thanghou chu aga mu uvin ahung kile un, lengpa kom’a aseitauvin ahi.

16 Then the people went out and took the goods from the tents of the Aramaeans. So a measure of good meal was to be had for the price of a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, as the Lord had said.

Hijou chun Samaria khopi miho chu alhaidoh un, Syria te ngahmun chu agachom tauvin ahi. Hiti chun antuitah tah chu atena dim nga chu dangka khat aman’in chuleh sakol chang atena dim som chu dangka khat man’in, Pakaiyin ana tepbang bang chun akijoh tan ahi.

17 And the king gave authority to that captain, on whose arm he was supported, to have control over the doorway into the town; but he was crushed to death there under the feet of the people, as the man of God had said when the king went down to him.

Lengpan a sepai lamkaipa chu kelkot na mipi ting ding chun ana pansah in ahileh mipi hon anolhu uvin, achonlih tauvin ahi. Hiti chun Pathen mipan ain na hung lengpa kom’a ana phondoh tobang bang chun ana sohdoh tan ahi.

18 So the words of the man of God came true, which he said to the king: Two measures of barley will be offered for the price of a shekel and a measure of good meal for a shekel, tomorrow about this time in the market-place of Samaria.

Pathen mipan lengpa kom’achun, “Jing nikho tuphat dontah leh antui tah chu atena dim nga chu dangka khatna kicho ding chuleh sakol chang atena dim som chu dangka khatna kicho ding,” anati ahi.

19 And that captain said to the man of God, Even if the Lord made windows in heaven, would such a thing be possible? And he said to him, Your eyes will see it, but you will not have a taste of the food.

Hiche pet tah’a chu lengpa noija sepai lamkai pachun, “Pakaiyin vanna van bangkot jouse ahon lhahding hijongleh hithei ponte ana tin,” ahileh, Pathen mipachun, “Nangin thilsoh chu na mittah a namu ding ama vang naneh mantah louding ahi,” ana tipeh chu,

20 And such was his fate; for he was crushed to death under the feet of the people, in the doorway into the town.

Alollhina anahitai, ajeh chu mipihon amachu kotphung ah chun ana chonlih tauvin ahi.
