< 2 Kings 5 >
1 Naaman, the leader of the military of the king of Syria, was a great and honorable man with his lord. For through him the Lord gave salvation to Syria. And he was a strong and rich man, but a leper.
Si Naaman nga, na punong kawal ng hukbo ng hari sa Siria, ay dakilang lalake sa kaniyang panginoon, at marangal, sapagka't sa pamamagitan niya'y nagbigay ang Panginoon ng pagtatagumpay sa Siria: siya rin nama'y malakas na lalake na may tapang, nguni't may ketong.
2 Now robbers had gone out from Syria, and they had led away captive, from the land of Israel, a little girl. And she was in the service of the wife of Naaman.
At ang mga taga Siria ay nagsilabas na mga pulupulutong, at nagdala ng bihag na mula sa lupain ng Israel na isang dalagita; at siya'y naglingkod sa asawa ni Naaman.
3 And she said to her lady: “I wish that my lord had been with the prophet who is in Samaria. Certainly, he would have cured him of the leprosy that he has.”
At sinabi niya sa kaniyang babaing panginoon. Mano nawa ang aking panginoon ay humarap sa propeta na nasa Samaria! kung magkagayo'y pagagalingin niya siya sa kaniyang ketong.
4 And so, Naaman entered to his lord, and he reported to him, saying: “The girl from the land of Israel spoke in such a manner.”
At pumasok ang isa, at isinaysay sa kaniyang panginoon, na sinasabi, Ganito't ganito ang sabi ng dalagita na nagmula sa lupain ng Israel.
5 And the king of Syria said to him, “Go, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” And when he had set out, he had taken with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand gold coins, and ten changes of fine clothing.
At sinabi ng hari sa Siria, Yumaon ka, yumaon ka, at ako'y magpapadala ng sulat sa hari sa Israel. At siya'y yumaon, at nagdala siya ng sangpung talentong pilak, at anim na libong putol na ginto, at sangpung pangpalit na bihisan.
6 And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, in these words: “When you will receive this letter, know that I have sent to you my servant, Naaman, so that you may heal him of his leprosy.”
At kaniyang dinala ang sulat sa hari sa Israel, na sinasabi, At pagka nga dumating sa iyo ang sulat na ito, ay talastasin mo na aking sinugo si Naaman na aking lingkod sa iyo, upang iyong pagalingin siya sa kaniyang ketong.
7 And when the king of Israel had read the letter, he tore his garments, and he said: “Am I God, so that I could take or give life, or so that this man would send to me to cure a man from his leprosy? Take notice and see that he is seeking occasions against me.”
At nangyari, nang mabasa ng hari sa Israel ang sulat, na kaniyang hinapak ang kaniyang suot at nagsabi, Ako ba'y Dios upang pumatay at bumuhay, na ang lalaking ito ay nagsugo sa akin upang pagalingin ito sa kaniyang ketong? nguni't talastasin mo, isinasamo ko sa iyo, at tingnan mo kung paanong siya'y humahanap ng dahilan laban sa akin.
8 And when Elisha, the man of God, had heard this, specifically, that the king of Israel had torn his garments, he sent to him, saying: “Why have you torn your garments? Let him come to me, and let him know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
At nagkagayon, nang mabalitaan ni Eliseo na lalake ng Dios na hinapak ng hari sa Israel ang kaniyang suot, na siya'y nagsugo sa hari, na nagsabi: Bakit mo hinapak ang iyong mga kasuutan? paparituhin mo siya sa akin, at kaniyang malalaman na may isang propeta sa Israel.
9 Therefore, Naaman arrived with his horses and chariots, and he stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
Sa gayo'y naparoon si Naaman na dala ang kaniyang mga kabayo at ang kaniyang mga karo, at tumayo sa pintuan ng bahay ni Eliseo.
10 And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go, and wash seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will receive health, and you will be clean.”
At si Eliseo ay nagsugo ng sugo sa kaniya, na nagsasabi, ikaw ay yumaon, at maligo sa Jordan na makapito, at ang iyong laman ay sasauli sa iyo, at ikaw ay magiging malinis.
11 And becoming angry, Naaman went away, saying: “I thought that he would have come out to me, and, standing, would have invoked the name of the Lord, his God, and that he would have touched the place of the leprosy with his hand, and so have healed me.
Nguni't si Naaman ay naginit, at umalis, at nagsabi, Narito, aking inakalang, walang pagsalang lalabasin niya ako, at tatayo, at tatawag sa pangalan ng Panginoon niyang Dios, at pagagalawgalawin ang kaniyang kamay sa kinaroroonan, at mapapawi ang ketong.
12 Are not the Abana and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel, so that I might wash in them and be cleansed?” But then, after he had turned himself away and was leaving with indignation,
Hindi ba ang Abana at ang Pharphar, na mga ilog ng Damasco, ay mainam kay sa lahat ng tubig sa Israel? hindi ba ako makapaliligo sa mga yaon, at maging malinis? Sa gayo'y pumihit siya at umalis sa paginit.
13 his servants approached him, and they said to him: “If the prophet had told you, father, to do something great, certainly you ought to have done it. How much more so, now that he has said to you: ‘Wash, and you will be clean?’”
At ang kaniyang mga lingkod ay nagsilapit, at nagsipagsalita sa kaniya, at nagsabi, Ama ko, kung ipinagawa sa iyo ng propeta ang anomang mahirap na bagay, hindi mo ba gagawin? gaano nga kung sabihin niya sa iyo, Ikaw ay maligo, at maging malinis?
14 So he descended and washed in the Jordan seven times, in accord with the word of the man of God. And his flesh was restored, like the flesh of a little child. And he was made clean.
Nang magkagayo'y lumusong siya at sumugbong makapito sa Jordan, ayon sa sabi ng lalake ng Dios: at ang kaniyang laman ay nagsauling gaya ng laman ng isang munting bata, at siya'y naging malinis.
15 And returning to the man of God, with his entire retinue, he arrived, and stood before him, and he said: “Truly, I know there is no other God, in all the earth, except in Israel. And so I beg you to accept a blessing from your servant.”
At siya'y bumalik sa lalake ng Dios, siya at ang buong pulutong niya, at naparoon, at tumayo sa harap niya: at siya'y nagsabi, Narito ngayon, aking talastas na walang Dios sa buong lupa, kundi sa Israel: isinasamo ko ngayon sa iyo na tanggapin mo ang kaloob ng iyong lingkod.
16 But he responded, “As the Lord lives, before whom I stand, I will not accept it.” And though he urged him strongly, he did not agree at all.
Nguni't kaniyang sinabi, Buhay ang Panginoon, na nakatayo ako sa harap niya, wala akong tatanggapin. At ipinilit niya sa kaniyang kunin; nguni't siya'y tumanggi.
17 And Naaman said: “As you wish. But I beg you to grant to me, your servant, that I may take from here the burden of two mules from the ground. For your servant will no longer offer holocaust or victim to other gods, except to the Lord.
At sinabi ni Naaman, Kung hindi, isinasamo ko pa sa iyo, na bigyan ko ang iyong lingkod ng lupang mapapasan ng dalawang mula; sapagka't ang iyong lingkod buhat ngayon ay hindi maghahandog ng handog na susunugin o hain man sa ibang mga dios, kundi sa Panginoon.
18 But there is still this matter, for which you will entreat the Lord on behalf of your servant: when my lord enters the temple of Rimmon, so that he may adore there, and he leans on my hand, if I will bow down in the temple of Rimmon, while he is adoring in the same place, that the Lord may ignore me, your servant, concerning this matter.”
Sa bagay na ito'y patawarin nawa ng Panginoon ang iyong lingkod, pagka ang aking panginoon ay pumasok sa bahay ni Rimmon upang sumamba roon, at siya'y umagapay sa aking kamay, at ako'y yumukod sa bahay ni Rimmon, pagyukod ko sa bahay ni Rimmon, na patawarin nawa ng Panginoon ang iyong lingkod sa bagay na ito.
19 And he said to him, “Go in peace.” Then he went away from him, in the elect time of the earth.
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Ikaw ay yumaong payapa. Sa gayo'y nilisan niya siya ng may aguwat na kaunti.
20 And Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, said: “My lord has spared Naaman, this Syrian, by not receiving from him what he brought. As the Lord lives, I will run after him, and take something from him.”
Nguni't si Giezi, na lingkod ni Eliseo na lalake ng Dios, ay nagsabi, Narito, pinalagpas ng aking panginoon ang Naamang ito na taga Siria, sa di pagtanggap sa kaniyang mga kamay ng kaniyang dala; buhay ang Panginoon, tatakbuhin ko siya, at kukuha ako ng anoman sa kaniya.
21 And so, Gehazi followed after the back of Naaman. And when he had seen him running toward him, he leaped down from his chariot to meet him, and he said, “Is all well?”
Sa gayo'y sinundan ni Giezi si Naaman, at nang makita ni Naaman na isa'y humahabol sa kaniya, siya'y bumaba sa karo na sinalubong niya, at sinabi, Lahat ba'y mabuti?
22 And he said: “It is well. My lord has sent me to you, saying: ‘Just now two youths from the sons of the prophets have come to me from mount Ephraim. Give them a talent of silver, and two changes of clothing.’”
At kaniyang sinabi, Lahat ay mabuti. Sinugo ako ng aking panginoon, na sinabi, Narito, dumating sa akin ngayon mula sa lupaing maburol ng Ephraim ang dalawang binata sa mga anak ng mga propeta: isinasamo ko sa iyo na bigyan mo sila ng isang talentong pilak, at dalawang pangpalit na bihisan.
23 And Naaman said, “It is better that you accept two talents.” And he urged him, and he bound the two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing. And he set them upon two of his servants, who carried them before him.
At sinabi ni Naaman, Matuwa ka, kunin mo ang dalawang talento. At ipinilit niya sa kaniya, at ibinalot ang dalawang talentong pilak sa dalawang supot, sangpu ng dalawang pangpalit na bihisan, at mga ipinasan sa dalawa sa kaniyang mga bataan; at dinala nila sa unahan niya.
24 And when now he had arrived in the evening, he took them from their hands, and he stored them in the house. And he dismissed the men, and they went away.
At nang siya'y dumating sa burol, kinuha niya sa kanilang kamay, at itinago niya sa bahay: at pinayaon niya ang mga lalake, at sila'y nagsiyaon.
25 Then, having entered, he stood before his lord. And Elisha said, “Where are you coming from, Gehazi?” He responded, “Your servant did not go anywhere.”
Nguni't siya'y pumasok at tumayo sa harap ng kaniyang panginoon. At sinabi ni Eliseo sa kaniya, Saan ka nanggaling Giezi? At kaniyang sinabi, Ang iyong lingkod ay walang pinaroonan.
26 But he said: “Was my heart not present, when the man turned back from his chariot to meet you? And now you have received money, and you have received garments, so that you might buy olive groves, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and men and women servants.
At kaniyang sinabi, Hindi ba sumasa iyo ang aking puso nang ang lalake ay bumalik mula sa kaniyang karo na sinasalubong ka? panahon ba ng pagtanggap ng salapi, at pagtanggap ng bihisan, at ng mga olibohan, at ng mga ubasan, at ng mga tupa, at ng mga baka, at ng mga aliping lalake at babae?
27 So then, the leprosy of Naaman shall adhere to you, and to your offspring forever.” And he departed from him a leper, as white as snow.
Ang ketong nga ni Naaman ay kakapit sa iyo, at sa iyong binhi magpakailan man. At siya'y umalis sa kaniyang harapan na may ketong na kasingputi ng niebe.
