Aliwe, omundu mughuma oyo twabyamo edeni yiwe mwaheka abana baghe babiri atoke eriyabayayira mo bakobe biwe.”
2 Neryo Elisha mwabwira omukali oyo ati: “Nikuwatikaye niti? Terimbwira, uwite okuki omo nyumba yaghu?” Omukali oyo mwamusubirya ati: “Ingye mughombe waghu singwite oko kindu omo nyumba, ekyo ninawiteko kisa ry’erilegha ry’amaghuta.”
3 Enyuma sy’aho, Elisha mwabwira omukali oyo ati: “Ghenda, uyasungane n’abahimbani baghu bosi. Ubabwire uti bakuhe amalegha awatemo kindu. Bakuhe amalegha manene.
4 N’enyuma sy’aho, wingire omo nyumba yaghu, iwe n’abana baghu muyikingiremo. Musulaye omo malegha wosi mw’amaghuta. Erilegha ryabyusula, imwahiraryo oho lutambi.”
5 Neryo omukali oyo mwaghenda.
Mwingira omo nyumba yiwe, neryo iye n’abana biwe bamayikingiramo. Mubabya bakamulabirya amalegha, naye inyusulyagho.
6 Amalegha mwabya abyusula, omukali oyo mwabwira omughuma w’oko bana biwe ati: “Niletere n’erindi rilegha.” Aliwe omwana wiwe oyo mwamubwira ati: “Sihakiri.” Neryo amaghuta mwatasyaluamo.
7 Neryo omukali oyo mwayabwira omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene. N’omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene oyo naye mwamubwira ati: “Ghenda, uyaghulaye amaghuta ayo, ulihe amadeni waghu, neryo amaghuta awakendisighala akendikuwatikya iwe n’abana baghu omo ngebe yenyu.”
8 Kiro kighuma, Elisha mwaya e Shunemu. Yabya omukali mughuma oyusikibwe kutsibu, mwamuhatikana ati ayalire ewiwe y’akalyo. Eritsuka ekiro ekyo, omughulu abya akalaba e Shunemu, iniakakita oho w’omukali oyo, inialiraho.
9 Neryo omukali oyo mwabwira omulume wiwe ati: “Omulume oyukabya akasa ewetu, ninasi ngoko ni mubuyirire w’oMungu.
10 Kisi, tumukokoteraye ekyumba kike omo lutwe. Tuhiremo engyingo, emesa, ekitumbi, n’ekindu ky’erihirako etala. Omughulu akendisyabya akasyatubana, akendisyabya akaghotseramo.”
11 Kiro kighuma, Elisha mwahika e Shunemu. Mwahetukira omo kyumba ekyabya omo lutwe akayayato.
12 Enyuma sy’aho, mwabwira omughombe wiwe, ye Gehazi, ati: “Unibirikirire omukali Mushunemu.” Neryo Gehazi mwamubirikira, n’omukali oyo mwasyimana embere sya Elisha.
13 Neryo Elisha mwabwira Gehazi ati: “Kisi bwira omukali oyo uti, ‘Wabiritukasanira kutsibu. Wanzire inakukoleraki? Wanzire inakubughira n’omwami kutse n’omukulu w’abasuda?’” Aliwe omukali oyo mwamusubirya ati: “Iyehe, ninikere ndeke omo kati-kati k’abandu b’ewetu.”
14 Neryo Elisha mwabulya Gehazi ati: “Twangamukoleraki?” Gehazi mwasubirya ati: “Syawite oko bana, n’omwira wiwe ni musyakulu.”
15 Elisha mwalw’iniamubwira ati: “Umubwire uti ase hano.” Neryo Gehazi mwayamubwira; n’omukali oyo amasyimana oko mulango.
16 Neryo Elisha mwamubwira ati: “Oko ndambi eno, oko mwaka owakasa, ukendisyalembera omwana.” Aliwe omukali oyo mwamusubirya ati: “Iyehe, mukama waghe, iwe mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene! Leka eriteba omughombe waghu.”
17 Aliwe, omukali oyo mwabya mukule, amabuta omwana w’obulume oko mwaka owakwama, oko mughulu mughumerera, ngoko Elisha anamubwira.
18 Omwana oyo mwakula. Kiro kighuma, omwana oyo mwaya eyiri baba wiwe. Baba wiwe abya iniane haghuma n’abakaghesa.
19 Mwabya akabwira baba wiwe ati: “Omutwe waghe, omutwe waghe amaluma!” Neryo baba w’omwana oyo mwabwira omughombe wiwe ati: “Umutwalire mama wiwe.”
20 Neryo omughombe oyo mwamutwalira mama wiwe. Mama wiwe mwamutambika erihika oko medi, neryo omwana oyo mwahola.
21 Omukali oyo mwayamughotserya oko nyingo y’omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, amaluamo n’erikinga omulango.
22 Enyuma sy’aho, mwabirikira omulume wiwe n’erimubwira ati: “Kisi, unitumire omughombe mughuma n’epunda nguma. Ngendighenda luba-luba eyiri omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene n’erisubula.”
23 Aliwe omwira wiwe mwamubwira ati: “Busanaki wanzire eriyamusunga munabwire? Munabwire ka si kiro ky’omughenda muhya-muhya kutse ekiro ky’esabato.” Aliwe, omukali wiwe mwamubwira ati: “Sighusaghe, emyatsi yosi inuwene.”
24 Neryo omukali oyo mwateghekania epunda, amabwira omughombe wiwe ati: “Ughendaye epunda yo luba-luba. Isiwaghendayayo bolo-bolo nitetakubwira.”
25 Neryo omukali oyo mwaya oko Kitwa kye Karmeli eriyasungana n’omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene. Omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene mwamulangirira hali, neryo mwalw’iniabwira Gehazi omughombe wiwe ati: “Tahie, omukali Mushunemu yolya, anemwasa.
26 Kisi tibita eyali, umubulaye uti, ‘Unuwene? Omulume waghu anuwene? N’omwana waghu anuwene?’” Omukali oyo mwasubirya omughome wa Elisha ati: “Emyatsi yosi inuwene.”
27 Omukali oyo mwabya abihika oko kitwa, ahali omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, mwalw’iniamakirira ebisando by’omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene. Gehazi mwaseghera hakuhi n’abo atoke erimulusyaho, aliwe omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene mwabugha ati: “Muleke, ali omo bulighe bunene, aliwe Yehova abirinibisa omwatsi oyo kandi syetanibwira.”
28 Neryo omukali oyo mwabwira Elisha ati: “Mukama waghe, munanakusaba omwana? Si munakubwira niti, ‘Isiwaniteba.’”
29 Elisha mwalw’iniabwira Gehazi ati: “Lingira olukimba lwaghu lw’omo mbindi, wimaye omutso waghe neryo ughende. Wamabisangana omundu, isiwamurakaya. N’omundu amabikuramukya, isiwamusubiraya. Uyahire omutso waghe oko busu b’omwana.”
30 Neryo mama w’omwana mwabwira Elisha ati: “Oko kwenene-kwenene ngoko Yehova aliho kandi ngoko naghu uliho, sinendisubula nite naghu.” Neryo Elisha mwahangana, amaghenda n’omukali oyo.
31 Gehazi mwababera embere. Mwabya abihika, amahira omutso oyo oko busu b’omwana. Aliwe omwana oyo mwatabugha kutse eryowa kindu. Neryo Gehazi mwasuba enyuma, amayahindana na Elisha, neryo amamubwira ati: “Omwana syetabuka.”
32 Omughulu Elisha ahika omo nyumba eyo, omwana abya inianaghotsere oko ngyingo yiwe, iniabirihola.
33 Elisha mwingira omo kyumba, amakinga omulango. Iye n’omwana oyo bo babya omo kyumba. Neryo mwatsuka erisaba Yehova.
34 Neryo mwasambira oko ngyingo, amayikakirya oko mubiri w’omwana. Mwahira obuno bwiwe oko buno bw’omulwana, ameso wiwe oko meso w’omulwana, n’ebyala biwe oko byala by’omulwana. Mwasighala inianayikakirye oko mwana. Neryo omubiri w’omwana mwatsuka erihuha.
35 Elisha mwabya akayitimba-timbako omo nyumba. Enyuma sy’aho, mwasambira oko ngyingo, kandi amayikakirya oko mubiri w’omwana. Neryo omwana mwatwa esyotsihya 7, n’erikingula ameso.
36 Neryo Elisha mwabirikira Gehazi, amamubwira ati: “Ubwire omukali Mushunemu uti ase.” Neryo Gehazi mwayamubwira ati ase. Abere abyasa, Elisha amamubwira ati: “Imaya omwana waghu.”
37 Neryo omukali oyo mwingira omo nyumba, amayighusa oko bisando bya Elisha, amakukama, n’erihira obusu bwiwe b’oko kitaka embere siwe. Enyuma sy’aho mwimya omwana wiwe, n’eriya ehihya.
38 Elisha mwabya abisuba e Gilgali, mweya enzala iyabiribya omo kihugho ekyo. Kiro kighuma, abaghala b’abaminyereri babya ibanikere embere siwe. Neryo mwabwira omughombe wiwe ati: “Uhire enyungu nene oko liko kandi uhukire abaghala b’abaminyereri b’omuto.”
39 Neryo omughuma w’oko baghala b‘abaminyereri mwaya emoli akayatwa esyonyinyi. Mwasunga ekiti ekikalanda,* neryo amatwa kukyo kw’ebyangululu,* amusulyabo omo lukimba lwiwe. Neryo mwasubula, amatwabyo mo bihande-bihande n’erihirabyo omo nyungu, aliwe isyasi nga niki.
40 Habere habilaba mughulu mulebe, mubaha abalume ababya aho b’akalyo. Aliwe mubabya babinalya oko muto oyo, mubalaka ibanemubugha bati: “Mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, omo nyungu muli esumu.”* Neryo mubatalya omuto oyo.
41 Neryo omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene mwababwira ati: “Muniletere efarine nyike.” Mwaghusayo omo nyungu, neryo amabugha ati: “Wanganabahagho, balye.” Esumu yabya isiyikiri omo nyungu.
42 Aliwe, omulume mughuma mwahika akalua e Baali-shalisha. Mwaletera omundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene emikati 20 y’ekisusu eyahukawa omo kisusu ky’erimbere-mbere. Mwamuletera n’omufuko mughuma owalimo emighanda eyiryalua okw’itwibwa. Neryo Elisha mwabugha ati: “Uhebyo abalume aba, balyebyo.”
43 Aliwe, omughombe wiwe mwamusubirya ati: “Sibyangaghonera oko bandu 100.” Elisha mwamubwira ati: “Ubahebyo, balyebo, kundi Yehova ati, ‘Bakendyughuta, ibyasaka nibya.’”
44 Neryo omughombe wiwe mwahabyo abalume abo. Mubalya, bamasakya, ngoko Yehova anabugha.
