1Tonghma ca rhoek loh Elisha te, “Mamih om nah hmuen he na mikhmuh ah kaimih ham khaw caek coeng he.
1Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Please take note that the place where we meet with you is too small for us.
2Jordan la cet uh mai sih lamtah te lamkah tungpum te hlang pakhat loh pakhat kawt sih. Te phoeiah mamih ham hmuen pahoi saii uh sih lamtah pahoi khosa uh sih,” a ti uh dongah, “Cet uh,” a ti nah.
2Please let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a log so we can build ourselves a place to live there.” “Go,” said Elisha.
3Te vaengah pakhat loh, “Ueh mai lamtah na sal rhoek taengah pongpa mai,” a ti nah hatah, “Ka pongpa bitni,” a ti nah.
3Then one of them said, “Please come with your servants.” “I will come,” he replied.
4Amih neh cet tih Jordan la a pawk vaengah thing te a saek uh.
4So Elisha went with them, and when they came to the Jordan, they began to cut down some trees.
5Pakhat loh tungpum a vung vaengah thi te tui khuila a tlak pah. Te dongah pang tih, “Ka boeipa aw, te te ka vat dae ta,” a ti nah.
5As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axe head fell into the water. “Oh, my master,” he cried out, “it was borrowed!”
6Te dongah Pathen kah hlang loh, “Melam a tlak,” a ti nah tih a hmuen te a tueng. Te phoeiah thing a saih tih te ah te a khoh hata thi te a loe hang.
6“Where did it fall?” asked the man of God. And when he showed him the place, the man of God cut a stick, threw it there, and made the iron float.
7Te phoeiah, “Namah ham rhut laeh,” a ti nah dongah a kut a yueng tih a rhuh.
7“Lift it out,” he said, and the man reached out his hand and took it.
8Te vaengah aka om Aram manghai loh Israel a vathoh thil. A sal rhoek te a uen tih, “Kamah kah buep te tongmang hmuen ah,” a ti nah.
8Now the king of Aram was at war against Israel. After consulting with his servants, he said, “My camp will be in such and such a place.”
9Pathen kah hlang loh Israel manghai te a tah tih, “He hmuen la kat ham te ngaithuen, Aram te singling singloei lah ko te,” a ti nah.
9Then the man of God sent word to the king of Israel: “Be careful passing by this place, for the Arameans are going down there.”
10Pathen kah hlang loh anih taengah a thui pah hmuen la Israel manghai a tueih vaengah tah a thuituen phoeiah khaw a thuituen dongah a tuem uh te vai bueng pawt tih hnavoei bueng bal moenih.
10So the king of Israel sent word to the place the man of God had pointed out. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places.
11Hekah ol soah Aram manghai kah lungbuei tah thikthuek coeng. A sal rhoek te a khue tih amih te, “Kai taengah na puen uh mah nim? Mamih khui lamloh he Israel manghai taengla aka puen te unim?” a ti nah.
11For this reason the king of Aram became enraged and called his servants to demand of them, “Tell me, which one of us is on the side of the king of Israel?”
12Tedae a sal rhoek khuikah pakhat loh, “Moenih, ka boei manghai aw, Israel ah tonghma Elisha om ta, na imkhui ah thingkong dongah na thui ol khaw Israel manghai taengla puen ta,” a ti nah.
12But one of his servants replied, “No one, my lord the king. For Elisha, the prophet in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom.”
13Te dongah, “Cet uh, anih te melam nim so uh, hlang ka tueih saeh lamtah anih ka tu eh?,” a ti nah. Tedae a taengla puen tih, “Dothan ah om ke,” a ti nah.
13So the king said, “Go and see where he is, that I may send men to capture him.” On receiving the report, “Elisha is in Dothan,”
14Te lam te marhang neh leng neh tatthai muep a tueih. Khoyin ah a paan uh tih khopuei te pin a vael uh.
14the king of Aram sent horses, chariots, and a great army. They went there by night and surrounded the city.
15Pathen kah hlang aka bongyong te thoo tih, pai tih, a tawn uh vaengah tah caem loh khopuei te marhang neh leng neh tarha ana vael. Te dongah a tueihyoeih loh Elisha te, “Ka boeipa aw, metlam n'saii eh?” a ti nah.
15When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early in the morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. So he asked Elisha, “Oh, my master, what are we to do?”
16Tedae, “Rhih boeh, mamih taengkah he amih taengkah lakah yet,” a ti nah.
16“Do not be afraid,” Elisha answered, “for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
17Elisha te thangthui tih, “BOEIPA aw, a mik he tueng sak mai lamtah hmu van saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah BOEIPA loh tueihyoeih kah mik te a tueng sak tih tlang kah marhang, leng a bae neh Elisha kaepvai kah hmai te kak a hmuh.
17Then Elisha prayed, “O LORD, please open his eyes that he may see.” And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw that the hills were full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
18Anih taengla a suntlak uh vaengah Elisha te BOEIPA taengah thangthui tih, “Hekah namtom he mikdael neh ngawn laeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah amih te Elisha ol bangla mikdael neh a ngawn.
18As the Arameans came down against him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, “Please strike these people with blindness.” So He struck them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha.
19Te vaengah Elisha loh amih te, “He he longpuei moenih, he he khopuei bal moenih. Kai hnuk ham vai uh lamtah na tlap uh hlang taengla nangmih te kan thak eh?,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah amih te Samaria la a thak.
19And Elisha told them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will take you to the man you are seeking.” And he led them to Samaria.
20Amih te Samaria la a kun van neh Elisha loh, “BOEIPA amih mik he tueng sak lamtah hmu uh saeh,” a ti. BOEIPA loh amih mik te a tueng sak tih a hmuh uh vaengah Samaria khui la tarha a pawk pah.
20When they had entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O LORD, open the eyes of these men that they may see.” Then the LORD opened their eyes, and they looked around and discovered that they were in Samaria.
21Amih te a hmuh vaengah Israel manghai loh Elisha te, “A pa ka ngawn la ka ngawn aya?” a ti nah.
21And when the king of Israel saw them, he asked Elisha, “My father, shall I kill them? Shall I kill them?”
22Tedae, “Ngawn boeh, na cunghang neh na lii neh na sol te nim na ngawn eh? Amih mikhmuh ah buh neh tui khaw tawn pah, a caak a ok uh phoeiah a boei rhoek taengla mael uh saeh,” a ti nah.
22“Do not kill them,” he replied. “Would you kill those you have captured with your own sword or bow? Set food and water before them, that they may eat and drink and then return to their master.”
23Te dongah amih ham buhloei muep a tael pah tih a caak a ok uh phoeiah amih te a tueih. A boei rhoek taengla a mael uh phoeiah tah Aram caem te Israel khohmuen la mop ham khoep uh voel pawh.
23So the king prepared a great feast for them, and after they had finished eating and drinking, he sent them away, and they returned to their master. And the Aramean raiders did not come into the land of Israel again.
24Te phoeiah pataeng Aram manghai Benhadad loh amah kah caem boeih te a coi. Te phoeiah cet tih Samaria te a dum.
24Some time later, Ben-hadad king of Aram assembled his entire army and marched up to besiege Samaria.
25Te dongah Samaria ah khokha la muep pai. Amih taengah laak lu pakhat te tangka sawmrhet neh, vahui aek pataeng, vahui aek boem pali he tangka phik nga la a om pha hil a dum uh.
25So there was a great famine in Samaria. Indeed, they besieged the city so long that a donkey’s head sold for eighty shekels of silver, and a quarter cab of dove’s dung sold for five shekels of silver.
26Te tlam te a om vaengah Israel manghai te vongtung dongah a pongpa vaengah a taengah huta pakhat pang tih, “Ka boei manghai aw n'khang lah,” a ti nah.
26As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried out to him, “Help me, my lord the king!”
27Tedae, “BOEIPA loh nang n'khang pawt atah me lamkah nim? Cangtilhmuen lamkah nim? va-am lamkah nim nang kang khang eh?” a ti nah.
27He answered, “If the LORD does not help you, where can I find help for you? From the threshing floor or the winepress?”
28Te phoeiah manghai loh anih te, “Nang te balae?” a ti nah hatah, “He huta loh kai taengah, 'Na capa te m'pae lamtah tihnin ah ca sih, thangvuen ah kai capa he n'caak bitni,’ a ti.
28Then the king asked her, “What is the matter?” And she answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son, that we may eat him, and tomorrow we will eat my son.’
29Te dongah kai capa te ka thong rhoi tih ka caak rhoi. Tedae hnin at ah tah anih te, 'Na capa te m'pae lamtah ca van pawn sih,’ ka ti nah hatah a capa te a thuh,” a ti nah.
29So we boiled my son and ate him, and the next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son, that we may eat him.’ But she had hidden her son.”
30Huta ol te manghai loh a yaak van neh a himbai te a phen. Amah khaw vongtung dongah a caeh doela pilnam a sawt vaengah a pum dongkah tlamhni te a khui hil tarha a hm uh.
30When the king heard the words of the woman, he tore his clothes. And as he passed by on the wall, the people saw the sackcloth under his clothes next to his skin.
31Te dongah, “Tihnin ah anih soah Shaphat capa Elisha kah lu te a om pueng atah Pathen loh kai he n'rhaem saeh lamtah n'talh van saeh,” a ti.
31He announced, “May God punish me, and ever so severely, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders through this day!”
32Elisha te amah im ah ngol tih a taengah a ham rhoek ngol uh. Te vaengah a mikhmuh ah hlang a tueih pah dae anih taengla puencawn a pha hlan ah amah loh a ham rhoek te, “Hlang ngawn capa a tueih te na hmuh uh nama? So uh kai lu aka tloek ham ni ke. Puencawn ha pawk hlan ah thohkhaih te khai uh lamtah anih te thohkhaih neh nen thil uh. A hnuk kah te a boei kholaeh ol pawt nim?” a ti nah.
32Now Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. The king sent a messenger ahead, but before he arrived, Elisha said to the elders, “Do you see how this murderer has sent someone to cut off my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door to keep him out. Is not the sound of his master’s footsteps behind him?”
33Amih te a voek li vaengah puencawn khaw anih taengla pakcak suntla tih, “Boethae he BOEIPA taeng lamkah ni he, balae tih BOEIPA te n'ngaiuep voel eh?” a ti.
33While Elisha was still speaking with them, the messenger came down to him. And the king said, “This calamity is from the LORD. Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?”
