ELISA I TEKEM PLES BLONG ELAEJA
King Ahasia blong Isrel i foldaon long haos blong hem mo i karekil. Profet Elaeja i talem long hem se bambae hem i ded. Ahasia i ded mo brata blong hem Jehoram i tekem ples blong hem, i kam king. Long taem ya, Jehosafat i king long Juda. Wan waelwin i kam tekemaot Elaeja mo Elisa i tekem ples blong hem olsem profet. Elisa i mekem wok ya blong klosap 60 yia mo long ol taem ya hem i mekem plante merikel.—Lukluk long bokis ya “Ol Merikel blong Elisa.”
Taem wan king blong ol man Moab i rebel agensem ol man Isrel, Jehoram, Jehosafat mo king blong Edom oli go blong faet long hem. Trifala ya oli winim king blong Moab ya from fasin blong Jehosafat blong holemstrong long Jeova. Biaen, king blong Siria i mekem plan blong go faet long ol man Isrel we olgeta ya oli no save nating. Be, Elisa i talemaot plan blong ol man Siria ya long king blong Isrel. King blong Siria i kros tumas ale hem i sanem “wan bigfala kampani blong ol soldia blong hem, wetem ol hos mo ol kat blong faet,” oli go blong holem Elisa. (2 King 6:14) Elisa i mekem tu merikel mo i sanem ol man Siria oli gobak long pis. Nao biaen, King Benadad blong Siria i tekem ol soldia blong hem oli kam hivap raon long taon ya Sameria, oli blokem ol man blong taon ya oli stap insaed. From samting ya, kakae blong ol man long taon ya i finis we i finis olgeta, be Elisa i talem se taon ya bambae i gat kakae bakegen.
Sam taem biaen, Elisa i go long taon ya Damaskes. Long taem ya King Benadad i sik mo hem i sanem Hasael i go long profet Elisa blong faenemaot sipos sik blong hem bambae i finis no nogat. Elisa i talem long Hasael se king ya bambae i ded mo se Hasael bambae i tekem ples blong hem. Long nekis dei, Hasael i kavremap fes blong king wetem wan “blangket” we i wetwet, mo i holemtaet blangket ya blong king i no moa save pulum win, nao hem i ded. Biaen Hasael i tekem ples blong hem, i kam king blong Siria. (2 King 8:15) Boe blong Jehosafat hemia Jehoram i kam king long Juda mo biaen boe blong Jehoram hemia Ahasia i kam king long ples blong papa blong hem.—Lukluk bokis ya “Ol King blong Juda mo blong Isrel.”
Ansa Blong Sam Kwestin Long Saed Blong Baebol:
2:9, NW—?From wanem Elisa i askem long Elaeja blong i givim “tu haf” blong paoa blong hem? Blong Elisa i save mekem wok olsem wan profet long Isrel, hem i nidim semfala paoa ya we Elaeja i gat. Paoa ya i save givhan long hem blong gat strong tingting mo no fraet. Taem Elisa i luksave samting ya, hem i askem tu haf blong paoa blong Elaeja. Elaeja nao i jusumaot Elisa blong i tekem ples blong hem. Elisa i stap folem Elaeja blong sikis yia mekem se hem i luk Elaeja olsem papa blong hem long saed blong spirit. Elisa i olsem fasbon pikinini blong Elaeja long saed blong spirit. (1 King 19:19-21; 2 King 2:12) Ale, olsem we wan fasbon pikinini i kasem tu haf blong ol samting blong papa blong hem, Elisa tu i askem blong kasem tu haf blong ol samting blong papa blong hem long saed blong spirit hemia Elaeja.
2:11—?Wanem “heven” ya we ‘waelwin i tekem Elaeja i go antap long hem’? Hemia i no ples ya farawe long yunives mo tu hem i no ples blong ol spirit man we God mo ol enjel blong hem oli stap long hem, nogat. (Dutronome 4:19; Ol Sam 11:4; Matiu 6:9; 18:10) “Heven” ya we Elaeja i go long hem hemia skae. (Ol Sam 78:26; Matiu 6:26) Kat blong faet we ol hos i pulum i ron i kam pas nao wantaem nomo i tekemaot Elaeja i karem hem i go long wan narafala ples long wol ya nomo, mo hem i gohed blong laef long ples ya blong smoltaem. Ol yia i pas, ale, Elaeja i sanem wan leta i kam long king blong Juda, Jehoram.—2 Kronikel 21:1, 12-15.
5:15, 16—?From wanem Elisa i no wantem tekem presen blong Neman? Elisa i no wantem karem presen ya from hem i luksave se merikel ya we hem i mekem long bodi blong Neman i kamaot long paoa blong Jeova be i no paoa blong hem. Yes Elisa i no wantem nating blong yusum paoa ya we God i givim long hem blong kasem mane no wan nara samting, nogat. Ol trufala man blong God tede oli no mekem wok blong Jeova from we oli wantem nomo blong kasem samting. Oli traehad blong folem advaes blong Jisas se: “Paoa ya, yufala i kasem we yufala i no pem, mo yufala i mas yusum, we oli no pem yufala from.”—Matiu 10:8.
5:18, 19—?Neman i askem blong God i fogivim hem from we hem i mas joen long giaman wosip? King blong ol man Siria i olfala mo i no save wokbaot strong taswe hem i nidim we Neman i givhan long hem blong wokbaot. Taem king ya i bodaon blong mekem wosip long god blong hem Rimon, Neman tu i bodaon wetem hem. Be, Neman i mekem olsem jes blong givhan long king nomo blong i no foldaon, be i no se hem tu i mekem wosip, nogat. Neman i askem Jeova blong fogivim hem taem hem i stap mekem wok ya blong hem blong givhan long king. Elisa i agri long wanem we Neman i talem ale hem i talem long Neman se: “Yu no wari, yu go, we tingting blong yu i stap gud.”

OL MAN ISREL MO JUDA OLI GO WOK SLEF LONG WAN NARAFALA KANTRI
Jeova i jusumaot Jehu olsem king blong ol man Isrel. Kwiktaem nomo hem i go kilim i ded olgeta famle blong king Ehab we oli laef yet i stap. Jehu i ‘waepemaot gud rabis fasin ya long Isrel, we ol man oli stap mekem wosip long Bal.’ (2 King 10:28) Taem Atalia, mama blong King Ahasia i harem se King Jehu i kilim Ahasia i ded, “hem i talem long ol soldia blong hem blong oli go holem ol smol bubu blong hem, wetem ol narafala laen blong ol king blong Juda bifo, oli kilim olgeta evriwan oli ded” mo Atalia i putumap hem wan i kwin blong Judia. (2 King 11:1) Pikinini boe blong Ahasia, nem blong hem Joas, hem nomo i no ded. Joas i stap haed gogo kasem sikis yia mo biaen hem i kam king long Juda. Oltaem Joas i stap mekem ol samting we oli stret long ae blong Jeova from we Hae Pris ya Jehoeada i stap tijim hem.
Olgeta king we oli rul long Isrel afta we King Jehu i ded, oli mekem ol samting we i no stret long ae blong Jeova. Long taem we smol bubu blong King Jehu i stap rul, Elisa i kasem wan sik we biaen hem i ded from. Namba fo king blong Judia we i kam biaen long King Joas, nem blong hem Ahas, mo Ahas ‘i stap mekem ol samting we Jeova i no glad long hem nating.’ (2 King 16:1, 2) Be, pikinini blong Ahas, nem blong hem Hesekia, i soem se hem i wan king we i ‘putum tingting blong hem i stap strong long Jeova.’ (2 King 17:20; 18:6) Long yia 740 B.K.T., king blong Asiria, nem blong hem Salmanesa, i ‘winim taon ya Sameria, mo i karemaot ol man Isrel oli go wok slef long kantri blong hem.’ Long taem ya Hesekia i rul long Juda mo Hosea i rul long Isrel. (2 King 17:6) Nao, ol man blong ol narafala kantri oli kam stap long Isrel mo oli statem skul blong ol man Sameria.
Long ol seven king ya blong Juda we oli kam biaen long Hesekia, i gat Josaea nomo we i tekem aksin blong karemaot ol ples blong mekem giaman wosip. Mo biaen, long yia 607 B.K.T., ol man Babilonia oli winim Jerusalem mo “oli karemaot ol man Juda oli gowe long kantri blong olgeta, oli go wok slef long Babilon.”—2 King 25:21.
Ansa Blong Sam Kwestin Long Saed Blong Baebol:
13:20, 21—?Merikel ya i sapotem fasin ya blong ona long ol dedman? Nogat. Baebol i no talem se ol man oli bin ona long ol bun blong Elisa. Paoa blong Jeova nao i mekem merikel ya mo i sem mak taem Elisa i laef yet, paoa blong Jeova nao i bin givhan long hem blong mekem ol merikel.
15:1-6—?From wanem Jeova i mekem se Usia i kasem wan rabis sik long skin blong hem? “Be taem we King Usia i stap kam strong moa olsem, samting ya i mekem hem i kam praod tumas, nao . . . hem i no moa obei long [Hae God]. Hem i girap, i go insaed long haos blong Hae God blong bonem insens long Olta ya blong Bonem Insens long ples ya.” Taem ol pris oli “folem hem blong blokem hem” mo oli tok long hem blong i ‘aot long ples ya blong bonem insens,’ hem i kros tumas long ol pris ya, nao wantaem nomo wan rabis sik blong skin i kamaot long fes blong hem.—2 Kronikel 26:16-20.
18:19-21, 25—?Olsem wanem? ?Hesekia i mekem wan kontrak wetem ol man Ijip? Nogat. Tok we haeman ya Rabsake i talem i giaman nomo, mo tu hem i giaman taem hem i talem se hem i kam long ples ya from we ‘Jeova nao i singaot hem.’ King Hesekia i dipen fulwan long Jeova.
