1 Eliseo habló a aquella mujer, cuyo hijo resucitó, y le dijo: Levántate y vete, tú y tu casa, y vive donde puedas. Porque Yavé llamó al hambre, la cual vendrá también sobre esta tierra por siete años.
1 Now 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 will also come on the land for seven years.”
2 La mujer se levantó e hizo conforme a la palabra del varón de ʼElohim. Se fue con los de su casa, y vivió como extranjera en tierra de los filisteos durante siete años.
2 The woman arose, and did according to the man of God’s word. She went with her household, and lived in the land of the Philistines for seven years.
3 Sucedió al terminar los siete años que la mujer volvió de la tierra de los filisteos, y salió para implorar al rey que le entregara su casa y su tierra.
3 At the end of seven years, the woman returned from the land of the Philistines. Then she went out to beg the king for her house and for her land.
4 El rey habló a Giezi, esclavo del varón de ʼElohim: Cuéntame ahora todos los prodigios que Eliseo hizo.
4 Now 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.”
5 Sucedió que, mientras él contaba al rey cómo resucitó al muerto, llegó allí la mujer cuyo hijo resucitó, a implorar al rey que le devolviera su casa y su tierra. Entonces dijo Giezi: Rey, ʼadón mío, ésta es la mujer y este es su hijo, al cual Eliseo dio vida.
5 As he was telling the king how he had restored to life him who was dead, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life begged 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.”
6 Entonces el rey preguntó a la mujer, y ella le contó. Así que el rey le asignó un funcionario, y le dijo: Restituye todo lo que era de ella, y todo el producto del campo desde el día cuando salió del país hasta ahora.
6 When 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.”
7 Eliseo fue a Damasco. Ben-adad, rey de Siria, estaba enfermo y le dijeron: El varón de ʼElohim vino aquí.
7 Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Syria was sick. He was told, “The man of God has come here.”
8 Y el rey dijo a Hazael: Toma en tu mano un presente, y vé a encontrar al varón de ʼElohim. Consulta a Yavé por medio de él y pregunta: ¿Sanaré de esta enfermedad?
8 The 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?’”
9 Hazael fue a encontrarse con él y llevó consigo un presente de lo mejor de Damasco: una carga de 40 camellos. Se detuvo ante él y le dijo: Tu hijo Ben-adad, rey de Siria, me envía a ti para preguntar: ¿Sanaré de esta enfermedad?
9 So 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?’”
10 Eliseo le respondió: Vé y dile: Ciertamente te recuperarás, pero Yavé me mostró que realmente morirás.
10 Elisha said to him, “Go, tell him, ‘You will surely recover;’ however Yahweh has shown me that he will surely die.”
11 El varón de ʼElohim lo miró fijamente hasta que aquél se ruborizó. Entonces el varón de ʼElohim lloró.
11 He settled his gaze steadfastly on him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept.
12 Y Hazael preguntó: ¿Por qué llora mi ʼadon? Y él contestó: Porque sé el mal que harás a los hijos de Israel: pondrás fuego a sus fortalezas, matarás a espada a sus jóvenes, estrellarás a sus niños y abrirás el vientre a sus mujeres embarazadas.
12 Hazael 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 their little ones in pieces, and rip up their pregnant women.”
13 Hazael preguntó: ¿Qué es tu esclavo, sino un perro, para que haga cosas tan grandes? Y Eliseo respondió: Yavé me mostró que tú serás rey de Siria.
13 Hazael said, “But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he could do this great thing?” Elisha answered, “Yahweh has shown me that you will be king over Syria.”
14 [Hazael] se alejó de Eliseo y fue a su ʼadón, quien le preguntó: ¿Qué te dijo Eliseo? Y él dijo: Me dijo que ciertamente te recuperarás.
14 Then 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.”
15 Sucedió al día siguiente que [Ben-adad] tomó un paño grueso, lo empapó en agua, lo extendió sobre su cara y murió. Y Hazael reinó en su lugar.
15 On the next day, he took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it on the king’s face, so that he died. Then Hazael reigned in his place.
16 El año quinto de Joram, hijo de Acab, rey de Israel cuando Josafat era rey de Judá, comenzó a reinar Joram, hijo de Josafat, rey de Judá.
16 In 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.
17 Tenía 32 años cuando comenzó a reinar, y reinó ocho años en Jerusalén.
17 He was thirty-two years old when he began to reign. He reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
18 Anduvo en el camino de los reyes de Israel, como la casa de Acab, pues su esposa fue una hija de Acab, e hizo lo malo ante Yavé.
18 He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did Ahab’s house, for he married Ahab’s daughter. He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight.
19 Pero Yavé no quiso destruir a Judá a causa de su esclavo David, pues prometió darle a él y a sus hijos una lámpara para siempre.
19 However, 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.
20 En sus días Edom se rebeló contra el dominio de Judá y decidieron que un rey reinara sobre ellos.
20 In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
21 Entonces Joram, [hijo de Josafat,] fue a Zaír con todos los carruajes. Se levantó de noche y atacó a los de Edom, quienes lo rodearon junto con los jefes de los carruajes. La tropa huyó a sus tiendas.
21 Then Joram crossed over to Zair, and all his chariots with him; and he rose up by night and struck the Edomites who surrounded him with the captains of the chariots; and the people fled to their tents.
22 Pero Edom siguió en rebelión contra el dominio de Judá hasta hoy. En aquel tiempo también se rebeló Libna.
22 So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.
23 Los demás hechos y cosas de Joram, ¿no están escritos en el rollo de las Crónicas de los reyes de Judá?
23 The 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?
24 Joram descansó con sus antepasados y fue sepultado con sus antepasados en la Ciudad de David. Su hijo Ocozías reinó en su lugar.
24 Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in David’s city; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
25 El año 12 de Joram, hijo de Acab, rey de Israel, comenzó a reinar Ocozías, hijo de Joram, rey de Judá.
25 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.
26 Ocozías tenía 22 años cuando comenzó a reinar, y reinó un año en Jerusalén. El nombre de su madre fue Atalía, hija de Omri, rey de Israel.
26 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old 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.
27 Anduvo en el camino de la casa de Acab e hizo lo malo ante Yavé como la casa de Acab, porque era su yerno.
27 He walked in the way of Ahab’s house and did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, as did Ahab’s house, for he was the son-in-law of Ahab’s house.
28 Ocozías fue a la guerra con el rey Joram, hijo de Acab, contra Hazael, rey de Siria, en Ramot de Galaad, pero los sirios derrotaron a Joram.
28 He went with Joram the son of Ahab to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth Gilead, and the Syrians wounded Joram.
29 El rey Joram regresó a Jezreel para ser curado de las heridas que los sirios le infligieron cuando combatía contra Hazael, rey de Siria, en Ramá. Entonces Ocozías, hijo de Joram, rey de Judá, bajó a Jezreel para ver a Joram, hijo de Acab, porque éste estaba enfermo.
29 King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel from 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.
