¹And it came to pass when Jehovah would take up Elijah into the heavens by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

¹Huan, Toupa'n Elija pingpeia vana a pi touh sinlai khawngin, hichi ahi a, Elija bel Elisa toh Gilgal akipanin a pawt ua.

²And Elijah said to Elisha, Abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! So they went down to Bethel.

²Huan, Elijain Elisa kiangah, hiai ah na om dih; Toupa'n Bethel tan pai dingin a hon sawl ahi, achi a. Huan, Elisain, Toupa hina leh na hina lou in ka gen hi, kon no se kei hial ding, a chi a. Huchiin Bethel ah a pai suk khawm uh.

³And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Dost thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from over thy head to-day? And he said, I also know it: be silent!

³Huan, Bethela om jawlneite tapate Elisa kiangah a hoh ua, a kiangah, Tunin Toupa'n na tunga heutu a hon lak mangsak sin chih na thei hia? a chi ua. Huan, aman, He, thei mah ing: dai mai un, a chi a.

⁴And Elijah said to him, Elisha, abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to Jericho. And he said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And they came to Jericho.

⁴Huan, Elijain a kiangah, Elisa, hiai ah na om dih; Toupa'n Jerikoa hoh dingin a hon sawl ahi, a chi a. Huan, aman, Toupa hina leh na hina louin ka gen ahi, ka hon no sekei hial ding, a chi a. Huchiin Jeriko ah a hoh khawm ta uhi.

⁵And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho drew near to Elisha and said to him, Dost thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from over thy head to-day? And he said, I also know it: be silent!

⁵Huan, Jeriko-a om jawlneite tapaten Elisa a va naih ua, a kiangah, tunin Toupa'n na tunga heutu a hon lak mangsak sin chih na thei hia? a chi ua. Huan, aman a dawnga, He, thei mah ing; dai mai un, a chi a.

⁶And Elijah said to him, Abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to the Jordan. And he said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And they two went on.

⁶Huan, Elijain a kiangah, Hiaiah na om dih; Toupa'n Jordana hoh dingin a honchi ahi, a chi a. Huan, aman, Toupa hina leh na hina louin ka gen ahi, ka hon nosekei hial ding, a chi a. Huchiin a nih un a paikhawm uh.

⁷And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite afar off; and they two stood by the Jordan.

⁷Huan, jawlneite tapate laka mi sawmnga a va hoh ua, amaute jawnah gamla kuam takah ava ding ua; huan, amau nihte bel Jordan ah a na ding uh.

⁸And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither; and they two went over on dry ground.

⁸Huan, Elijain a puan a la a, a lom jiala, tui a sata, langkhat langkhat ah a hong kikhenta a, huchiin a nih un lei gaw-ah a paita uhi.

⁹And it came to pass when they had gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I am taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.

⁹Huan, a galkah nung un hichi ahi a, Elija in Elisa kiangah, na kianga kipana lak manga ka om ma in bang ahia ka hon hihsak ding hon ngen in, a chi a. Huan, Elisa in na kha tan nih tang leng, a chi a.

¹⁰And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so to thee; but if not, it shall not be [so].

¹⁰Huan, aman, thil haksa pi ngen neive; haksa mahleh na kianga kipana lak manga ka om lai na hon muhleh na tang ding, na hon muhkei leh bel na tang kei ding, a chi a.

¹¹And it came to pass as they went on, and talked, that behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire; and they parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into the heavens.

¹¹Huan, a pai khawmkhawm ua, a houlim lai un hichi ahi a, ngaiin, mei kangtalai leh mei sakolte a hongkimu guih ua, a kikal ua kigolh in a kikhensakta a; huan, Elija bel pingpeiin vanah a paitou ta hi.

¹²And Elisha saw [it], and he cried, My father, my father! the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof! And he saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own garments and rent them in two pieces.

¹²Huan, Elisain huai a mu a, Pa aw, Pa aw, Israelte kangtalai leh huai a sakol tuangte aw! chiin a kikou a. Huan, Elija a muta kei a; huchiin amah puan a lena, phel nih in a botkek a.

¹³And he took up the mantle of Elijah which fell from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan;

¹³Elija puan hong kia leng a laa, a kik nawna, Jordan lui gei ah a ding hi.

¹⁴and he took the mantle of Elijah which had fallen from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is Jehovah, the God of Elijah? He also smote the waters, and they parted hither and thither, and Elisha went over.

¹⁴Huan, Elija puan hong kia a laa, tui a sat a, Toupa, Elija pathian koi ah? a chi a. Huan, tui a hon sat lai a leh langkhat langkhatah a hongkikhentaa, Elisa a galkahta hi.

¹⁵And the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho on the opposite side saw him, and they said, The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him,

¹⁵Huan, Jeriko khua a jawlneite tapa, amah jawna omten a muh un, Elija kha Elisa tungah a tu mah ve, a chi ua. Amah be dingin a kuan ua, ama ah lei siin chibai a buk uh.

¹⁶and said to him, Behold now, there are with thy servants fifty valiant men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master, lest perhaps the Spirit of Jehovah have taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some ravine. And he said, Ye shall not send.

¹⁶Huan, amau, a kiangah, ngai in, na sikhaten mi ngalhat pipi sawmnga ka ompih ua; na pu zong dingin sawl ve; Toupa kha in ala tou khat ahi dia, koilai tang ah hiam, koilai guam ah hiam a khia khat tou houh a himai deh, a chi ua. Huan, aman, kuan sak lou ding, a chi a.

¹⁷And they pressed him till he was ashamed, and he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men, and they sought three days, but did not find him.

¹⁷Huan, amah dinga zumhuai khop a a nget nung un, kuansak ve ua, a chi khongkhong a. Huchiin mi sawmnga a sawl ua; ni thum a zong ua, himahleh a mu zou ta kei ua.

¹⁸And they came again to him (now he was staying at Jericho); and he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?

¹⁸Huan, Jeriko khua a a ni tuan lai in a kiangah a hong nawn ua; aman a kiang uah, na kiang uah, kuansak kei un, ka hon chi a hikei maw? a chi a.

¹⁹And the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold now, the situation of the city is good, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the land is barren.

¹⁹Huan, huai khua a mite Elisa kiangah, en in hiai, hiai khomun a nuam mahmah a, ka pu un leng non muhpih hi; himahleh tui a hoihkei a, agam mah leng nausiat na gamahi, a chi ua.

²⁰And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt in it. And they brought it to him.

²⁰Huan, aman, tuithawl thak hon lak unla, chi thun dih uh, a chi a. Huchiin a hon laksak ua.

²¹And he went forth to the source of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith Jehovah: I have healed these waters: there shall not be from thence any more death or barrenness.

²¹Huan, tuikhuk ah a va hoha, huai a theh luta, Toupa'n hichiin a chi, hiai tui ka limsakta, tuban siah sihna leh nau siat na a om nawn ta kei ding, chiin, a chi a.

²²And the waters were healed to this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spoke.

²²Huchiin Elisa gen bangin tu tanin huai tui alimta hi.

²³And he went up from thence to Bethel, and as he went up by the way, there came forth little boys out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, bald head; go up, bald head!

²³Huan, huai a kipanin Bethel ah a hoh tou a; huan, huai lampi a apai lai in khua akipanin pasal naupang hon a hong pawt khia ua, a hong nuihsan ua, a kiangah, nang lu-giaupa, va hoh touin, nang lu-giaupa va hoh tou in, achi ua.

²⁴And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of Jehovah. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty-two children of them.

²⁴Huan, a nunglam a nga a, amau a mu a, Toupa minin a hamsiatta hi. Huan, gamnuai akipan vompi nih a hongpawt khia ua, a lak ua naupang sawmli leh nih a hongkei ua.Huan, huai a kipan Karmel tangah a hoha, huai akipan Samari khua ah a pai nawnta hi.

²⁵And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.

²⁵Huan, huai a kipan Karmel tangah a hoha, huai akipan Samari khua ah a pai nawnta hi.
