¹Kord hüüdis Eliisale keegi naine, üks prohvetijüngrite naisi, öeldes: 'Su sulane, minu mees, on surnud. Ja sa tead, et su sulane kartis Issandat. Nüüd tuleb võlausaldaja mu kahte poega enesele orjaks võtma.'

¹Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead. You know that your servant feared Yahweh. Now the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be slaves.”

²Ja Eliisa ütles temale: 'Mis ma pean sulle tegema? Ütle mulle, mis sul kojas on.' Ja ta vastas: 'Su teenijal ei ole kojas midagi muud kui kruus õli.'

²Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me: what do you have in the house?” She said, “Your handmaid has nothing in the house, except a pot of oil.”

³Siis ta ütles: 'Mine palu enesele külast astjaid, kõigilt oma naabreilt, tühje astjaid ja mitte liiga vähe!

³Then he said, “Go, borrow containers from of all your neighbors, even empty containers. Don’t borrow just a few.

⁴Siis mine ja sule uks enese ja oma poegade järelt ja vala kõigisse neisse astjaisse; ja mis saab täis, pane kõrvale!'

⁴You shall go in, and shut the door on you and on your sons, and pour out into all those containers; and you shall set aside that which is full.”

⁵Ja naine läks ta juurest ära ja sulges ukse enese ja oma poegade järelt; nemad tõid temale astjaid ja tema valas õli sisse.

⁵So she went from him, and shut the door on her and on her sons; they brought the containers to her, and she poured out.

⁶Ja kui astjad said täis, siis ta ütles oma pojale: 'Too mulle veel üks astja!' Aga poeg vastas temale: 'Astjat ei ole enam.' Ja õlivool lakkas.

⁶It happened, when the containers were full, that she said to her son, “Bring me another container.” He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” The oil stopped flowing.

⁷Siis ta tuli ja kuulutas seda jumalamehele; ja see ütles: 'Mine müü õli ära ja tasu oma võlg! Sina ja su pojad aga elage ülejäägist!'

⁷Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”

⁸Ja ühel päeval juhtus, et Eliisa läks Suunemisse; seal oli keegi rikas naine ja see peatas teda leiba võtma; nõnda iga kord, kui ta sealt läbi läks, põikas ta sinna leiba võtma.

⁸It fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman; and she persuaded him to eat bread. So it was, that as often as he passed by, he turned in there to eat bread.

⁹Ja naine ütles oma mehele: 'Vaata, ma tean, et see, kes alati meilt mööda läheb, on püha jumalamees.

⁹She said to her husband, “See now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God, that passes by us continually.

¹⁰Tehkem ometi pisike müürikamber ja pangem temale sinna ase, laud, iste ja lambijalg; ja kui ta tuleb meie juurde, siis ta võib minna sinna.'

¹⁰Please let us make a little room on the wall. Let us set for him there a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp stand. It shall be, when he comes to us, that he shall turn in there.”

¹¹Ja ühel päeval juhtus, et ta tuli sinna, läks müürikambrisse ja magas seal.

¹¹One day he came there, and he turned into the room and lay there.

¹²Ja ta ütles oma teenrile Geehasile: 'Kutsu see suunemlanna!' Ja see kutsus tema ning naine astus ta ette.

¹²He said to Gehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite.” When he had called her, she stood before him.

¹³Siis ta ütles teenrile: 'Ütle ometi temale: Vaata, sa oled meie pärast kõike seda vaeva näinud. Mida saaks teha sinu heaks? Kas on tarvis su eest midagi rääkida kuninga või väepealikuga?' Aga naine vastas: 'Ma elan ju oma rahva keskel.'

¹³He said to him, “Say now to her, ‘Behold, you have cared for us with all this care. What is to be done for you? Would you like to be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the army?’” She answered, “I dwell among my own people.”

¹⁴Eliisa küsis: 'Mida siis saaks teha tema heaks?' Ja Geehasi vastas: 'Vaata, tal pole poega ja ta mees on vana.'

¹⁴He said, “What then is to be done for her?” Gehazi answered, “Most certainly she has no son, and her husband is old.”

¹⁵Siis ta ütles: 'Kutsu tema!' Ja Geehasi kutsus ta, ja naine astus uksele.

¹⁵He said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the door.

¹⁶Ja Eliisa ütles: 'Aasta pärast selsamal ajal sa kaisutad poega.' Aga ta vastas: 'Ei, mu isand! Sina, jumalamees, ära peta oma teenijat!'

¹⁶He said, “At this season, when the time comes around, you will embrace a son.” She said, “No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your handmaid.”

¹⁷Ent naine jäi lapseootele ja tõi aasta pärast selsamal ajal poja ilmale, nagu Eliisa temale oli öelnud.

¹⁷The woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, as Elisha had said to her.

¹⁸Ja kui laps oli suuremaks kasvanud, siis juhtus ühel päeval, et ta läks välja oma isa juurde, kes oli viljalõikajate juures,

¹⁸When the child was grown, it happened one day that he went out to his father to the reapers.

¹⁹ja ütles oma isale: 'Mu pea! Mu pea!' Ja isa ütles oma teenrile: 'Kanna ta tema ema juurde!'

¹⁹He said to his father, “My head! My head!” He said to his servant, “Carry him to his mother.”

²⁰Ja see kandis teda ning viis ta tema ema juurde; ja poeg istus ema põlvil kuni keskpäevani, siis ta suri.

²⁰When he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees until noon, and then died.

²¹Ja ema läks üles ja pani ta jumalamehe voodisse, sulges ukse tema järelt ja läks välja.

²¹She went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door on him, and went out.

²²Siis kutsus ta oma mehe ja ütles: 'Läkita mulle nüüd keegi poistest ja üks emaeesel, siis ma ruttan jumalamehe juurde ja tulen kohe tagasi!'

²²She called to her husband, and said, “Please send me one of the servants, and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.”

²³Aga mees ütles: 'Miks sa täna lähed tema juurde? Ei ole ju noorkuu ega hingamispäev.' Kuid ta vastas: 'Ole mureta!'

²³He said, “Why would you want go to him today? It is neither new moon nor Sabbath.” She said, “It’s alright.”

²⁴Ja ta saduldas emaeesli ning ütles oma teenrile: 'Aja ühtesoodu ja ära peata mu sõitu muidu, kui ma sulle ütlen!'

²⁴Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, “Drive, and go forward! Don’t slow down for me, unless I ask you to.”

²⁵Ja ta läks ning tuli jumalamehe juurde Karmeli mäele; ja kui jumalamees teda eemalt nägi, siis ta ütles Geehasile, oma teenrile: 'Näe, see on suunemlanna!

²⁵So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. It happened, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, “Behold, there is the Shunammite.

²⁶Jookse nüüd temale vastu ja küsi temalt: Kas sinu ja su mehe ja su poja käsi käib hästi?' Ja naine vastas: 'Hästi.'

²⁶Please run now to meet her, and ask her, ‘Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?’” She answered, “It is well.”

²⁷Ja kui ta tuli jumalamehe juurde mäele, siis ta võttis tema jalgade ümbert kinni; aga Geehasi astus ligi, et teda eemale tõugata, kuid jumalamees ütles: 'Jäta ta rahule, sest ta hing on meeleheitel! Issand on seda varjanud minu eest ega ole mulle avaldanud.'

²⁷When she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, “Leave her alone; for her soul is troubled within her; and Yahweh has hidden it from me, and has not told me.”

²⁸Ja naine ütles: 'Kas ma palusin oma isandalt poega? Kas ma ei öelnud, et ära mind peta?'

²⁸Then she said, “Did I desire a son of my lord? Didn’t I say, Do not deceive me?”

²⁹Siis Eliisa ütles Geehasile: 'Pane vöö vööle, võta minu sau kätte ja mine! Kui sa kohtad kedagi, siis ära tereta teda, ja kui keegi teretab sind, siis ära vasta temale! Ja pane mu sau poisikese silmade peale!'

²⁹Then he said to Gehazi, “Tuck your cloak into your belt, take my staff in your hand, and go your way. If you meet any man, don’t greet him; and if anyone greets you, don’t answer him again. Then lay my staff on the face of the child.”

³⁰Aga poisikese ema ütles: 'Nii tõesti kui Issand elab, ja nii tõesti kui su hing elab, ma ei jäta sind!' Siis Eliisa tõusis ja läks tema järele.

³⁰The mother of the child said, “As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” He arose, and followed her.

³¹Aga Geehasi oli läinud nende ees ja oli pannud saua poisikese silmade peale: kuid ei häält ega märkamist! Ja ta tuli tagasi Eliisale vastu ja jutustas talle, öeldes: 'Poisike ei ärganud.'

³¹Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff on the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Therefore he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, “The child has not awakened.”

³²Ja Eliisa tuli sinna kotta, ja vaata, poisike oli surnud ja pandud tema voodisse.

³²When Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid on his bed.

³³Ta läks sisse ning sulges ukse nende mõlema järelt ja palus Issandat.

³³He went in therefore, and shut the door on them both, and prayed to Yahweh.

³⁴Siis ta astus voodisse, heitis lapse peale, pani oma suu tema suu peale, oma silmad tema silmade peale ja oma käed tema käte peale; ja kui ta tema peal lamas, siis soojenes lapse ihu.

³⁴He went up, and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. He stretched himself on him; and the flesh of the child grew warm.

³⁵Siis ta tuli ja kõndis kojas korra sinna ja tänna, läks üles ja heitis poisi peale; siis aevastas poisike seitse korda ja avas silmad.

³⁵Then he returned, and walked in the house once back and forth; and went up, and stretched himself on him. Then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

³⁶Ja ta kutsus Geehasi ning ütles: 'Kutsu see suunemlanna!' Ja Geehasi kutsus naise ning naine tuli tema juurde. Ja Eliisa ütles: 'Võta oma poeg!'

³⁶He called Gehazi, and said, “Call this Shunammite!” So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, “Take up your son.”

³⁷Ja naine tuli ja langes tema jalgade ette ning kummardas maani, võttis oma poja ja läks välja.

³⁷Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out.

³⁸Ja Eliisa läks tagasi Gilgali. Ja maal oli nälg. Ja kui prohvetijüngrid tema ees istusid, ütles ta oma teenrile: 'Pane suur pott tulele ja keeda prohvetijüngritele leent!'

³⁸Elisha came again to Gilgal. There was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, “Set on the great pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.”

³⁹Ja üks neist läks väljale noppima kassinaereid, leidis aga metsiku väänkasvu, noppis sellelt oma kuue täis marju ja tuli ning lõikas need leemepotti, sest nad ei tundnud neid.

³⁹One went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered of it wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of stew; for they didn’t recognize them.

⁴⁰Ja meestele kallati süüa; aga kui nad leent sõid, siis kisendasid nad ja ütlesid: 'Jumalamees, surm on potis!' Ja nad ei võinud süüa.

⁴⁰So they poured out for the men to eat. It happened, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, “Man of God, there is death in the pot!” They could not eat of it.

⁴¹Tema aga ütles: 'Tooge jahu!' Ja ta viskas selle potti ning ütles: 'Kallake rahvale ja nad söögu!' Siis ei olnud potis midagi halba.

⁴¹But he said, “Then bring meal.” He cast it into the pot; and he said, “Pour out for the people, that they may eat.” There was no harm in the pot.

⁴²Ja keegi mees tuli Baal-Saalisast ning tõi jumalamehele uudseleiba - kakskümmend odraleiba, ja tema leivakotis oli vastvalminud vilja. Eliisa ütles: 'Anna rahvale, et nad süüa saaksid!'

⁴²A man from Baal Shalishah came, and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. He said, “Give to the people, that they may eat.”

⁴³Aga tema teener küsis: 'Kuidas ma seda sajale mehele ette annan?' Ja ta vastas: 'Anna rahvale ja nad söögu, sest nõnda ütleb Issand: Sellest saab süüa ja jääb ülegi!'

⁴³His servant said, “What, should I set this before a hundred men?” But he said, “Give the people, that they may eat; for thus says Yahweh, ‘They will eat, and will have some left over.’”

⁴⁴Ja teener pani selle neile ette ja nad sõid ning jätsid ülegi, Issanda sõna peale.

⁴⁴So he set it before them, and they ate, and left some of it, according to the word of Yahweh.
