2 Kings 7
1 Elisha replied to the king, “Listen to what Yahweh says: ‘He says that by this time tomorrow, at the marketplace here in Samaria, you will be able to buy (ten pounds/five kg.) of fine wheat or (20 pounds/ten kg.) of barley for [only] one piece of silver.’”
Kinuna ni Eliseo, “Denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh. Kastoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh: 'Inton bigat iti kastoy nga oras, mailakonto ti sangkasukat a napino nga arina iti maysa a siklo, ken dua a sukat a trigo iti maysa a siklo, idiay ruangan ti Samaria.'”
2 The king’s officer said to Elijah, “That cannot happen! Even if Yahweh himself would open the windows of the sky [and send grain down to us], that certainly could not [RHQ] happen!” Elisha replied, “[Because you said that, ] you [SYN] will see it happen, but you will not be able to eat any of the food!”
Ket simmungbat ti kapitan a nangkuyog iti ari iti tao ti Dios, ket kinunana, “Kitaem, uray no mangaramid ni Yahweh kadagiti tawa idiay langit, mapasamak kadi met daytoy a banag?” Simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Kitaem, maimatangamto daytoy a mapasamak babaen kadagiti bukodmo a mata, ngem saanka makapangan iti uray ania iti daytoy.”
3 That day there were four men who had (leprosy/a dreaded skin disease) who were sitting outside the gate of Samaria [city. They said to each other, “(Why should we] wait here until we die?/[It is ridiculous for us to] wait here until we die.) [RHQ]
Ita, adda uppat a lallaki a kinetong iti laeng ruar ti ruangan ti siudad. Kinunada iti tunggal maysa, “Apay ketdin nga agtugawtayo ditoy agingga a mataytayo?
4 If we go into the city, we will die there, because there is no food there. If we remain sitting here, we will die here. So let’s go to where the army of Syria has set up their tents. If they kill us, we will die. But if they allow us to remain alive, we will not die.”
No ibagatayo a mapantayo idiay siudad ket adda panagbisin iti siudad, ket mataytayonto sadiay. Ngem no agtugawtayo latta ditoy, mataytayonto latta. Ita ngarud, umaykayo, mapantayo iti armada dagiti Arameo. No pagtalinaedendatayo a sibibiag, agbiagtayo, ket no papatayendatayo, mataytayonto laeng.”
5 So when it was getting dark, those four men went to the camp where the army of Syria had set up their tents. But when they reached the camp, they saw that there was no one there!
Timmakderda ngarud a mapan kadagiti kampo dagiti Arameo iti sumipngeten; idi nakadanonda iti kaadaywan a paset ti kampo, awan ti uray maysa sadiay.
6 What had happened was that Yahweh had caused the army of Syria to hear something that sounded like a large army marching with chariots and horses. So they said to each other, “Listen! The king of Israel has hired the kings of Egypt and the Heth people-group [and their armies], and they have come to attack us!”
Ta impadengngeg ti Apo iti armada dagiti Arameo ti daranudor dagiti karwahe ken kabkabalio - ti tagari iti sabali pay a dakkel nga armada, ket kinunada iti tunggal maysa, “Tinangdanan ti ari ti Israel dagiti ari dagiti Heteo ken Egipsio nga umay a maibusor kadatayo.”
7 So they all ran away that evening and left their tents and their horses and donkeys there, because [they were afraid that] they would be killed [if they stayed there].
Isu a nagrubbuat dagiti soldado ket naglibasda idi sumipngeten; pinanawanda dagiti toldada, kabalioda, asnoda, ken ti kampoda ket timmarayda tapno insalakanda dagiti biagda.
8 When those four lepers came to the edge of the area where the soldiers of Syria had set up their tents, they went into one tent, [and saw all the things that had been left there]. So they ate and drank what was there, and they took the silver and the gold and clothes. Then they went [outside the tent] and hid those things. Then they entered another tent, and took things from there, and then went outside and hid them, also.
Idi nakadanon dagiti kinetong a lallaki iti kaadaywan a paset ti kampo, immunegda iti maysa a tolda ket nangan ken imminumda, ken nangalada kadagiti pirak, balitok ken kawkawes, pimmanawda ket napanda indulin dagitoy. Nagsublida ket simrekda pay iti sabali a tolda ket nagtakawda pay sadiay, ket napanda indulin daytoy.
9 But then they said to each other, “We are not doing what is right. We have good news [to tell others] today. If we do not tell it to anyone now, and if we wait until morning to tell it, we will certainly be punished [by Yahweh]. So let’s go right now to the palace and tell it to the king’s officials!”
Kalpasanna, kinunada iti tunggal maysa, “Saan nga umno ti ar-aramidentayo. Daytoy nga aldaw ket aldaw ti naimbag a damag, ngem ilimlimedtayo ti maipapan iti daytoy. No aguraytayo agingga iti agsapa, kamakamennatayo ti pannusa. Ita ngarud, umaykayo, intayo ibaga iti sangkabalayan ti ari.”
10 So they went to the guards at the city gates and called out to them, “We went to where the army of Syria had set up their tents, but we did not see or hear anyone there. Their horses and donkeys were still tied up, but their tents were all deserted/abandoned!”
Isu a napanda ket pinukkawanda dagiti mangay-aywan iti ruangan ti siudad. Imbagada kadakuada, a kunada, “Napankami iti kampo dagiti Arameo, ngem awan ti uray maysa sadiay, uray uni ti siasinoman, ngem adda sadiay a nakatali dagiti kabalio ken asno, ken adda pay laeng sadiay dagiti tolda a sitatakder.”
11 The guards shouted the news, and some people [who heard it] went to the palace and reported it there.
Ket impukpukkaw dagiti mangay-aywan iti ruangan ti siudad ti damag, ket kalpasanna, naibaga daytoy iti uneg ti sangkabalayan ti ari.
12 [When] the king [heard it, he] got up out of his bed and said to his officials, “I will tell you what the army of Syria is planning to do. They know that we have no food here, so they have left their tents and are hiding in the fields. They think that we will leave the city [to find some food], and then they will capture us and capture the city.”
Bimmangon ngarud ti ari iti rabii ket kinunana kadagiti adipenna, “Ibagak ita kadakayo no ania ti inaramid dagiti Arameo kadatayo. Ammoda a mabisintayo, isu a pimmanawda kadagiti kampo tapno mapanda aglemmeng kadagiti talon. Kunada, “Inton rummuarda iti siudad, tiliwentayo ida a sibibiag, ket serrekentayo ti siudad.'”
13 But one of his officials said, “Many of our Israeli people have already died [from (hunger/not having anything to eat]). If those of us who are still alive all stay here, we also will die anyway. So let’s send some men with five of our horses that are still alive to go and see [what has really happened].”
Maysa kadagiti adipen ti ari ti simmungbat ket kinuna, “Agpakpakaasiak kenka, pangalaem koma dagiti lallaki iti lima a kabalio kadagiti natda, a nabati iti siudad. Maiyarigda amin kadagiti nabati a tattao iti Israel - kaaduan ket natayen; ibaontayo koma ida ket kitaentayo ti mapasamak.”
14 So they chose some men and told them to go in a chariot and find out what had happened to the army of Syria.
Isu a nangalada iti dua a karwahe agraman kadagiti kabalio, ket imbaon ti ari ida a mangsaruno iti armada dagiti Arameo, kunana, “Inkayo kitaen.”
15 They went as far as the Jordan [River]. All along the road they saw clothes and equipment that the soldiers from Syria had thrown away while they were running away very quickly. So the men returned to the king and reported [what they had seen].
Sinurotda ida iti Karayan Jordan, ket nagkaiwara iti amin a dalan dagiti kawes ken alikamen nga imbelleng dagiti Arameo iti panagdardarasda. Isu a nagsubli dagiti mensahero ket imbagada iti ari.
16 Then many of the people of Samaria also went [out of the city and went] to where the army of Syria had previously set up their tents. They entered all the tents and took everything. [So there was now plenty of everything!] As a result people could buy ten pounds of fine wheat or 20 pounds of barley for only one piece of silver, which was what Yahweh had said would happen!
Rimmuar dagiti tattao ket sinamsamda ti adda iti kampo dagiti Arameo. Isu a nailako ti sangkasukat a napino nga arina iti maysa a siklo, ken dua a sukat a trigo iti maysa a siklo, kas naibaga ti sao ni Yahweh.
17 The king of Israel had appointed the officer who was his assistant to supervise what was happening at the marketplace. But as he was standing near the gate, all the people [who were rushing outside the city] trampled on him, and he died, which was what Elisha had said would happen to him when Elisha previously went to talk to the king.
Binilin ti ari ti kapitan a nangkuyog kenkuana nga isu ti mangimaton iti ruangan, ket binaddebaddekan isuna dagiti tattao iti pagserkan. Natay isuna a kas iti imbaga ti tao ti Dios, a nagsao idi napan ti ari kenkuana.
18 Elisha had told him that by the next day there would be plenty of food, with the result that anyone could buy ten pounds of fine wheat or 20 pounds of barley for only one piece of silver.
Napasamak ngarud daytoy a kas imbaga ti tao ti Dios iti ari, a kunana, ''Iti kastoy nga oras idiay ruangan ti Samaria, mailakonto ti dua a rukod ti trigo a iti maysa a siklo, ken maysa a rukod ti kasasayaatan nga arina iti maysa a siklo.”
19 And the officer had answered, “That certainly cannot [RHQ] happen! Even if Yahweh himself would open the sky and send down some grain, that could not happen.” And Elisha had replied, “[Because you said that, ] you [SYN] will see it happen, but you will not be able to eat any of the food!”
Simmungbat dayta a kapitan iti tao ti Dios a kinunana, “Kitaem, uray no mangaramid ni Yahweh kadagiti tawa idiay langit, mabalin met aya a mapasamak daytoy a banag?” Naibaga ni Eliseo, “Kitaem, maimatangamto daytoy a mapasamak babaen kadagiti bukodmo a mata, ngem saankanto a makapangan iti uray ania iti daytoy.”
20 And that is what happened to him. The people [who were rushing out of] the city gate trampled on him, and he died.
Ket kasta ngarud ti napasamak kenkuana, ta binaddebaddekan isuna dagiti tattao idiay ruangan, ket natay isuna.
