¹एलीशाले त्यस आइमाईसँग कुरा गरे जसको छोरालाई उनले पुर्नजीवित गरेका थिए। एलीशाले भने, “तिमी र तिम्रो परिवारले अर्को देश जानु पर्छ। किन? किनभने परमप्रभुले निर्णय लिनुभएको छ, यहाँ अनिकाल हुनेछ। यो अनिकाल यस देशमा सात वर्ष सम्म रहने छ।”

¹Now Elisha had spoken to the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, “Arise, and go, you and your household, and stay for a while wherever you can; for Yahweh has called for a famine. It shall also come on the land seven years.”

²यसकारण आइमाईले त्यसै गरी जस्तो परमेश्वरका जनले भने। ऊ आफ्नो परिवारसमेत पलिश्तिको देशमा गएर सातवर्ष सम्म बसि।

²The woman arose, and did according to the word of the man of God. She went with her household, and lived in the land of the Philistines seven years.

³सात वर्ष बितेपछि आइमाई पलिश्तिहरूको देशबाट फर्की आइमाई राजासँग कुरा गर्न गई। उसले आफ्नो घर र जग्गा फिर्ता पाउँ भनी बिन्ती गर्न पुगी।

³It happened at the seven years’ end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines. Then she went forth to cry to the king for her house and for her land.

⁴राजा परमेश्वरको जनको सेवक गेहजीसँग कुरा गरिरहेका थिए। राजाले गेहजीलाई भने, “कृपया मलाई एलीशाले गरेको सबै महान कार्यहरू बताऊ।”

⁴Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, “Please tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.”

⁵गेहजीले राजालाई एलीशाको बारेमा बताउँदा मृत मानिसलाई जिउँदो गरेको सुनाउँदै थियो। त्यस समयमा त्यो आइमाई जसको छोरालाई एलीशाले फेरि जिउँदो बनाएका थिए, राजाकहाँ पुगी। ऊ राजलाई आफ्नो घर र जग्गा फिर्ता पाऊँ भनी बिन्ती गर्न चाहन्थी। गेहजीले भन्यो, “हे मेरा मालिक महाराज, यो त्यही आइमाई हो। अनि यो त्यही छोरा हो जसलाई एलीशाले फेरि जिउँदो बनाएका थिए।”

⁵It happened, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life him who was dead, that behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. Gehazi said, “My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.”

⁶राजाले आइमाईलाई ऊ के चाहन्छे भनी सोधे अनि आइमाईले भनी। तब राजाले एक जना अधिकारीलाई बोलाए। राजाले भने, “आइमाईलाई उसको जमीनहरू सबै दिनु। उसलाई जग्गामा छोडेको दिनदेखि अहिले सम्म फलेको पनि अन्न दिनु।”

⁶When the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed to her a certain officer, saying, “Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.”

⁷एलीशा दमीशकमा गए। अरामका राजा बेनहदद बिरामी थिए। एक जना मानिसले बेनहददलाई भन्यो, “परमेश्वरको जन यहाँ आएको छ।”

⁷Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Syria was sick. It was told him, saying, “The man of God has come here.”

⁸तब राजा बेनहददले हजाएललाई भने, “एउटा उपहार लिनु अनि परमेश्वरको जनसँग भेट्न जानु। उनलाई परमेश्वरसँग सोध्ने बिन्ती गर्नु के म आफ्नो बिरामीबाट मुक्त भएर निको हुनेछु?”

⁸The king said to Hazael, “Take a present in your hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of Yahweh by him, saying, ‘Will I recover from this sickness?’”

⁹यसर्थ हजाएल एलीशालाई भेट्न गयो। हजाएलले आफूसँगै उपहार पनि लग्यो। उसले दमीशकबाट सबै प्रकारका राम्रा चीजहरू लिएर गयो। प्रत्येक चीज बोक्नका लागि 40 वटा ऊँटहरू थिए। हजाएल एलीशाकहाँ पुग्यो। हजाएलले भन्यो, “तपाईको अनुयायी, अरामका राजा बेनहददले मलाई तपाईकहाँ पठाएका हुन्। उनी सोध्छन्। के उनी आफ्नो बिरामीबाट मुक्त भएर निको हुनेछन्?”

⁹So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels’ burden, and came and stood before him, and said, “Your son Benhadad king of Syria has sent me to you, saying, ‘Will I recover from this sickness?’”

¹⁰तब एलीशाले हजाएललाई बताए, “जा अनि बेन-हददलाई भन, ‘तिमी बाँच्ने छौ।”‘ तर साँचो अर्थमा परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्नुभयो, ‘उनी मर्ने छन्।”‘

¹⁰Elisha said to him, “Go, tell him, ‘You shall surely recover;’ however Yahweh has shown me that he shall surely die.”

¹¹एलीशा एकटक हेर्न थाले। उनले हजाएललाई एकटक तबसम्म हेरिरहे जबसम्म हजाएललाई असजिलो लाग्दैन। तब परमेश्वरको जन चिच्याउन थाले।

¹¹He settled his gaze steadfastly on him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept.

¹²हजाएलले भन्यो, “महाशय, तपाई किन चिच्याउनु हुँदैछ?” एलीशाले उत्तर दिए, “म चिच्याउँदै छु किन भने म जान्दछु तैंले इस्राएलीहरूलाई नराम्रो गर्नेछस्। तैंले तिनीहरूको दरिलो शहर जलाउनेछस्। तैंले तिनीहरूका युवकहरूको हत्या गर्नेछस्। तैंले तिनीहरूका नानीहरू मार्नेछस्। तैंले गर्भवती आइमाईहरूको गर्भ तुवाउने छस्।”

¹²Hazael said, “Why do you weep, my lord?” He answered, “Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel. You will set their strongholds on fire, and you will kill their young men with the sword, and will dash in pieces their little ones, and rip up their women with child.”

¹³हजाएलले भन्यो, “म शक्तिशाली मानिस होइन। म ती महान काम गर्न सक्दिनँ।” एलीशाले भने, “परमप्रभुले मलाई देखाउनुभएको छ, तँ नै अरामको राजा हुनेछस्।”

¹³Hazael said, “But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he should do this great thing?” Elisha answered, “Yahweh has shown me that you will be king over Syria.”

¹⁴त्यसपछि हजाएलले एलीशाबाट विदा लिए अनि आफ्नो राजाकहाँ गए। बेनहददले हजाएललाई सोधे, “एलीशाले तँलाई के भने?” हजाएलले उत्तर दियो, “एलीशाले मलाई भने तपाई बाँच्नु हुनेछ।”

¹⁴Then he departed from Elisha, and came to his master, who said to him, “What did Elisha say to you?” He answered, “He told me that you would surely recover.”

¹⁵तर अर्को दिन नै, हजाएलले एउटा बाक्लो लुगा लियो अनि पानीमा डुबायो। त्यसपछि उसले बेन-हददको अनुहार छोप्यो अनि सास थुन्यो। बेन-हददको मृत्यु भयो अनि हजाएल नयाँ राजा भयो। योराम आफ्नो शासन शुरू गर्छन्

¹⁵It happened on the next day, that he took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died. Then Hazael reigned in his place.

¹⁶यहोशापातका छोरा योराम यहूदाका राजा थिए। योरामले आहाबका छोरा योराम इस्राएलका राजा हुँदा पाँचौ वर्ष शासन शुरू गरे।

¹⁶In the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being king of Judah then, Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

¹⁷योराम 32 वर्षका थिए जब उनले शासन शुरू गरे। उनले यरूशलेममा आठ वर्ष शासन गरे।

¹⁷He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign. He reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

¹⁸तर योरामले इस्राएलका राजाहरू जस्तै शासन गरे अनि परमप्रभुले भूल भन्नुभएको कार्यहरू नै गरे। योरामले आहाबको परिवारका मानिसहरू जस्तै नै जीवन यापन गरे। योरामले यस्तै प्रकारले जीवन यापन गरे किनभने उनकी पत्नी आहाबकी छोरी थिइ।

¹⁸He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife. He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh.

¹⁹तर परमप्रभुले यहूदालाई नष्ट पार्नुभएन किनभने आफ्ना सेवक दाऊदलाई वचन दिनुभएको थियो। परमप्रभुले दाऊदलाई वचन दिनुभएको थियो, उनको परिवारबाट कोही सँधै नै राजा हुनेछ।

¹⁹However Yahweh would not destroy Judah, for David his servant’s sake, as he promised him to give to him a lamp for his children always.

²⁰योरामको समयमा एदोम यहूदाको शासनबाट छुट्टियो। एदोमका मानिसहरूले आफ्ना लागि राजा रोजे।

²⁰In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

²¹तब योराम र उनका सबै रथहरू लिएर याईरमा गए। एदोमी सैनिकहरूले उनलाई घेरे। योराम र उनका अधिकारीहरूले तिनीहरूमाथि राती आक्रमण गरे। तर योरामका सबै सैनिकहरू भागे।

²¹Then Joram passed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, and the captains of the chariots; and the people fled to their tents.

²²यस प्रकार एदोमीहरू यहूदाको शासनबाट छुट्टिए अनि तिनीहरू आजसम्म यहूदाको शासनबाट स्वतन्त्र छन्। त्यसै समयमा लिब्नी पनि यहूदाको शासन बाट स्वतन्त्र भयो।

²²So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

²³योरामले गरेको सबै कामको विषयमा यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहासको पुस्तकमा लेखिएको छ।

²³The rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²⁴योरामको मृत्यु भयो अनि दाऊद शहरमा आफ्ना पुर्खाहरूसँगै उसलाई गाडीयो। योरामका छोरा अहज्याह नयाँ राजा भए।

²⁴Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.

²⁵आहाबका छोरा योराम इस्राएलका राजा भएको 12 औं वर्षमा योरामका छोरा अहज्याह यहूदाका राजा भए।

²⁵In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.

²⁶अहज्याह 22 वर्षका थिए जब उनले शासन शुरू गरे। उनले एक वर्ष यरूशलेममा शासन गरे। उनको आमाको नाउँ अतल्याह थियो। उनी इस्राएलका राजा ओम्रीकी छोरी थिइन्।

²⁶Twenty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

²⁷अहज्याहले ती कार्य गरे जसलाई परमप्रभुले भूल भन्नुभएको थियो। अहज्याहले आहाब परिवारका मानिसहरू जस्तै धेरै भूल कामहरू गरे। अहज्याहले त्यस प्रकारले नै जीवन-यापन गरे किनभने उनकी पत्नी आहाब परिवारकी थिइन्।

²⁷He walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as did the house of Ahab; for he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab.

²⁸[This verse may not be a part of this translation]

²⁸He went with Joram the son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth Gilead: and the Syrians wounded Joram.

²⁹[This verse may not be a part of this translation]

²⁹King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
