2 Kings 5

1 And Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man before his master, and honourable, for by him Jehovah had given deliverance to Syria; and he was a mighty man of valour, [but] a leper.

And Naaman [the] commander of [the] army of [the] king of Aram he was a man great before master his and lifted up of face for by him he had given Yahweh victory to Aram and the man he was a mighty [man] of strength having a skin disease.

2 And the Syrians had gone out in bands, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife.

And Aram they had gone out marauding bands and they had taken captive from [the] land of Israel a girl young and she was before [the] wife of Naaman.

3 And she said to her mistress, Oh, would that my lord were before the prophet that is in Samaria! then he would cure him of his leprosy.

And she said to mistress her would that! master my [was] before the prophet who [is] in Samaria then he will deliver him from skin disease his.

4 And he went and told his lord saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.

And he went and he told to master his saying like this and like this she spoke the girl who [is] from [the] land of Israel.

5 And the king of Syria said, Well! go, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand [shekels] of gold, and ten changes of raiment.

And he said [the] king of Aram come go so let me send a letter to [the] king of Israel and he went and he took in hand his ten talents of silver and six thousand gold and ten changes of garments.

6 And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, And now, when this letter comes to thee, behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest cure him of his leprosy.

And he brought the letter to [the] king of Israel saying and now when comes the letter this to you here! I have sent to you Naaman servant my and you will deliver him from skin disease his.

7 And it came to pass when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his garments, and said, Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man sends to me to cure a man of his leprosy? Wherefore consider, I pray you, and see how he seeks an occasion against me.

And it was when read aloud [the] king of Israel the letter and he tore clothes his and he said ¿ God [am] I to kill and to restore to life that this [man] [is] sending to me to deliver a man from skin disease his that only consider please and see that [is] seeking an opportunity he to me.

8 And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his garments, that he sent to the king, saying, Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.

And it was when heard - Elisha [the] man of God that he had torn [the] king of Israel clothes his and he sent to the king saying why? did you tear clothes your let him come please to me so he may know that there [is] a prophet in Israel.

9 And Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the doorway of the house of Elisha.

And he came Naaman (with horses his *Q(K)*) and with chariot[s] his and he stood [the] entrance of the house of Elisha.

10 And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.

And he sent to him Elisha a messenger saying go and you will wash seven times in the Jordan and it may return flesh your to you and be clean.

11 And Naaman was wroth, and went away and said, Behold, I thought, He will certainly come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of Jehovah his God, and wave his hand over the place, and cure the leper.

And he was angry Naaman and he went and he said here! I said to myself - he will come out continuously and he will stand and he will call on [the] name of Yahweh God his and he will wave hand his to the place and he will deliver the [one] having a skin disease.

12 Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them and be clean? And he turned and went away in a rage.

¿ Not good ([are] Amana *Q(K)*) and Pharpar [the] rivers of Damascus more than all [the] waters of Israel ¿ not will I wash in them and I will be clean and he turned and he went in a rage.

13 And his servants drew near, and spoke to him and said, My father, [if] the prophet had bidden thee [do some] great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he says to thee, Wash and be clean?

And they drew near servants his and they spoke to him and they said would that a thing great the prophet he spoke to you ¿ not will you do [it] and indeed? if he has said to you wash and be clean.

14 Then he went down, and plunged himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God. And his flesh became again like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.

And he went down and he dipped in the Jordan seven times according to [the] word of [the] man of God and it returned flesh his like [the] flesh of a lad young and he was clean.

15 And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came and stood before him; and he said, Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel; and now, I pray thee, take a present of thy servant.

And he went back to [the] man of God he and all camp his and he came and he stood before him and he said here! please I know that there not [is] a God in all the earth that except in Israel and now accept please a blessing from with servant your.

16 But he said, As Jehovah liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none! And he urged him to take it; but he refused.

And he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh whom I stand before him if I will accept and he urged him to accept and he refused.

17 And Naaman said, If not, then let there, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules' burden of [this] earth; for thy servant will no more offer burnt-offering and sacrifice to other gods, but to Jehovah.

And he said Naaman and not let it be given please to servant your [the] load of a pair of mules earth for not he will offer again servant your burnt offering and sacrifice to gods other that except to Yahweh.

18 In this thing Jehovah pardon thy servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to bow down there, and he leans on my hand, and I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon — when I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon, Jehovah pardon thy servant, I pray thee, in this thing.

To the matter this may he forgive Yahweh servant your when goes master my [the] house of Rimmon to bow down there and he - [is] supporting himself on hand my and I will bow down [the] house of Rimmon when bow down I [the] house of Rimmon may he forgive (*Q(K)*) Yahweh servant your in the matter this.

19 And he said to him, Go in peace. And he departed from him a little way.

And he said to him go to peace and he went from with him a distance of land.

20 And Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master has spared Naaman, this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought; but as Jehovah liveth, I will run after him and take somewhat of him.

And he said Gehazi [the] servant of Elisha [the] man of God here! - he has restrained master my Naaman the Aramean this from accepting from hand his [that] which he brought [by] [the] life of Yahweh that except I run after him and I will accept from with him anything.

21 And Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he sprang down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?

And he pursued Gehazi after Naaman and he saw Naaman [one who] ran after him and he fell from on the chariot to meet him and he said ¿ peace.

22 And he said, All is well. My master has sent me saying, Behold, even now there are come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets; give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of raiment.

And he said - peace master my he has sent me saying here! now this they have come to me two young men from [the] hill country of Ephraim of [the] sons of the prophets give! please to them a talent of silver and two changes of garments.

23 And Naaman said, Consent to take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of raiment, and laid them upon two of his young men; and they bore them before him.

And he said Naaman be willing accept two talents and he urged him and he secured two talents silver in two bags and two changes of garments and he gave [them] to two of servants his and they carried [them] before him.

24 And when he came to the hill, he took them from their hand, and stowed them in the house; and he let the men go, and they departed.

And he came to the hill and he took [them] from hand their and he deposited [them] in the house and he sent away the men and they went.

25 And he entered in and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, Whence [comest thou], Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.

And he he went and he stood to master his and he said to him Elisha (from whence? *Q(K)*) O Gehazi and he said not he has gone servant your where? and where?

26 And he said to him, Did not my heart go, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and bondmen, and bondwomen?

And he said to him not heart my did it go? just when he turned a man from on chariot his to meet you ¿ a time to accept silver and to accept clothes and olive trees and vineyards and sheep and cattle and male servants and maidservants.

27 But the leprosy of Naaman shall fasten upon thee, and upon thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence leprous, as snow.

And [the] skin disease of Naaman it will cling to you and to offspring your for ever and he went out from to before him having a skin disease like snow.
