2 Kings 5
1 Now was there one Naaman captaine of the hoste of the King of Aram, a great man, and honourable in the sight of his lorde, because that by him the Lord had deliuered the Aramites. He also was a mightie man and valiant, but a leper.
Na rĩrĩ, Naamani aarĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita cia mũthamaki wa Suriata. Aarĩ mũndũ mũnene maitho-inĩ ma mwathi wake na aarĩ mũndũ watĩĩkĩte mũno, tondũ Jehova nĩamũhũthĩrĩte kũhe andũ a Suriata ũhootani. Aarĩ mũthigari njamba, no aarĩ na mangũ.
2 And the Aramites had gone out by bands, and had taken a litle mayde of the land of Israel, and shee serued Naamans wife.
Na rĩrĩ, mbũtũ cia Suriata nĩciathiĩte nja na igataha mũirĩtu mũnini kuuma Isiraeli, nake aatungatagĩra mũtumia wa Naamani.
3 And she sayd vnto her mistres, Would God my lord were with the Prophet that is in Samaria, he would soone deliuer him of his leprosie.
Nake mũirĩtu ũcio akĩĩra mwathi wake mũndũ-wa-nja atĩrĩ, “Naarĩ korwo mwathi wakwa Naamani no one mũnabii ũrĩa ũrĩ Samaria! No amũhonie mangũ make.”
4 And he went in, and tolde his lorde, saying, Thus and thus saith the mayde that is of the land of Israel.
Naamani agĩthiĩ kũrĩ mũthamaki mwathi wake na akĩmwĩra ũrĩa mũirĩtu ũcio woimĩte Isiraeli oigĩte.
5 And the King of Aram sayde, Goe thy way thither, and I will send a letter vnto the King of Israel. And he departed, and tooke with him ten talents of siluer, and sixe thousand pieces of golde, and ten change of rayments,
Nake mũthamaki ũcio wa Suriata akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Geria ũthiĩ. Nĩngũtũmĩra mũthamaki wa Isiraeli marũa.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Naamani akiumagara na agĩkuua taranda ikũmi cia betha, na cekeri 6,000 cia thahabu, na nguo cia magarũrĩra ikũmi.
6 And brought the letter to the King of Israel to this effect, Now when this letter is come vnto thee, vnderstand, that I haue sent thee Naaman my seruant, that thou maiest heale him of his leprosie.
Marũa marĩa atwarĩire mũthamaki wa Isiraeli maandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Nĩndatũma ndungata yakwa Naamani na marũa maya kũrĩ we, nĩgeetha ũmũhonie mangũ make.”
7 And when the King of Israel had read the letter, he rent his clothes, and sayde, Am I God, to kill and to giue life, that hee doth send to mee, that I should heale a man from his leprosie? wherfore consider, I pray you, and see howe he seeketh a quarel against me.
Rĩrĩa mũthamaki wa Isiraeli aathomire marũa macio-rĩ, agĩtembũranga nguo ciake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ Ngai? Ndaahota kũũraga na gũcookia muoyo rĩngĩ? Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma mũndũ ũyũ atũme mũndũ kũrĩ niĩ atĩ ahonio mangũ make? Ta kĩone, arageria kũnjũgita!”
8 But when Elisha the man of God had heard that the King of Israel had rent his clothes, hee sent vnto the King, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? Let him come now to me, and he shall knowe that there is a Prophet in Israel.
Rĩrĩa Elisha mũndũ wa Ngai aiguire atĩ mũthamaki wa Isiraeli nĩatembũrangĩte nguo ciake-rĩ, akĩmũtũmĩra ndũmĩrĩri ĩno: “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma ũtembũrange nguo ciaku? Reke mũndũ ũcio oke kũrĩ niĩ, na nĩekũmenya atĩ nĩ kũrĩ mũnabii thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.”
9 Then Naaman came with his horses, and with his charets, and stoode at the doore of the house of Elisha.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Naamani agĩthiĩ hamwe na mbarathi ciake na ngaari cia ita o nginya mũromo-inĩ wa nyũmba ya Elisha.
10 And Elisha sent a messenger vnto him, saying, Go and wash thee in Iorden seuen times, and thy flesh shall come againe to thee, and thou shalt be clensed.
Nake Elisha akĩmũtũmĩra mũndũ amwĩre atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ wĩthambe maita mũgwanja rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Jorodani, na mwĩrĩ waku nĩũkũhonio, na nĩũgũthera.”
11 But Naaman was wroth and went away, and sayde, Beholde, I thought with my selfe, Hee will surely come out, and stande, and call on the Name of the Lord his God and put his hand on the place, and heale the leprosie.
No Naamani agĩthiĩ arakarĩte, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngwĩciiragia atĩ ti-itherũ mũnabii nĩekuuma nja oke kũrĩ niĩ, na arũgame akaĩre rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova Ngai wake, acooke athũngũthie guoko gwake igũrũ rĩa handũ hau harũaru, aahonie mangũ.
12 Are not Abanah and Pharpar, riuers of Damascus, better then all the waters of Israel? may I not washe mee in them, and bee cleansed? so hee turned, and departed in displeasure.
Githĩ njũũĩ cia Dameski, na Abana, o na Faripari ti njega gũkĩra maaĩ o mothe ma Isiraeli? Githĩ ndingĩĩthambire thĩinĩ wacio therio?” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩhũndũka, agĩthiĩ arakarĩte mũno.
13 But his seruants came, and spake vnto him, and sayd, Father, if the Prophet had commanded thee a great thing, wouldest thou not haue done it? howe much rather then, when hee sayth to thee, Wash and be cleane?
Ndungata cia Naamani igĩthiĩ harĩ we ikĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ithe witũ, korwo mũnabii akwĩrire wĩke ũndũ mũnene gũkĩra ũyũ-rĩ, githĩ ndũngĩwĩkire? Githĩ to wĩke makĩria ũndũ ũyũ aakwĩra, ‘Wĩthambe, ũtherio!’”
14 Then went he downe, and washed him selfe seuen times in Iorden, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came againe, like vnto ye flesh of a litle child, and he was cleane.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Naamani agĩikũrũka, agĩĩtobokia Jorodani maita mũgwanja, o ta ũrĩa mũndũ wa Ngai aamwĩrĩte, naguo mwĩrĩ wake ũkĩhona, ũgĩthera ũkĩhaana ta wa kaana kanini.
15 And hee turned againe to the man of God, hee, and all his companie, and came and stood before him, and sayd, Behold, now I knowe that there is no God in all the world, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a reward of thy seruant.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Naamani na arĩa othe maamũteithagia magĩcooka kũrĩ mũndũ wa Ngai. Nake akĩrũgama mbere yake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩndamenya atĩ gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ thĩ yothe tiga gũkũ Isiraeli. Ndagũthaitha wĩtĩkĩre kuoya kĩheo kuuma kũrĩ ndungata yaku.”
16 But hee sayde, As the Lord liueth (before whom I stand) I wil not receiue it. And he would haue constrained him to receiue it, but he refused.
Nake mũnabii akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova ũrĩa ndungatagĩra atũũraga muoyo-rĩ, niĩ ndingĩĩtĩkĩra kuoya kĩndũ o na kĩ.” Na rĩrĩ, o na gũtuĩka Naamani nĩamũringĩrĩirie mũno-rĩ, nĩaregire.
17 Moreouer Naaman sayde, Shall there not be giuen to thy seruant two mules loade of this earth? for thy seruant will henceforth offer neither burnt sacrifice nor offring vnto any other god, saue vnto the Lord.
Nake Naamani akiuga atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo ndũngĩoya-rĩ, ndagũthaitha ũreke niĩ ndungata yaku heo tĩĩri ũrĩa wothe ũngĩkuuo nĩ nyũmbũ igĩrĩ, nĩgũkorwo ndungata yaku ndĩrĩ hĩndĩ ĩgacooka kũruta maruta ma njino kana magongona kũrĩ ngai ĩngĩ, tiga o Jehova.
18 Herein the Lord bee mercifull vnto thy seruant, that when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon, to worship there, and leaneth on mine hand, and I bowe my selfe in the house of Rimmon: when I doe bowe downe, I say, in the house of Rimmon, the Lord be mercifull vnto thy seruant in this point.
No rĩrĩ, Jehova arorekera ndungata yaku ũndũ-inĩ o ũyũ ũmwe: Rĩrĩa mũthamaki mwathi wakwa arĩĩtoonyaga hekarũ ya Rimoni amĩinamĩrĩre etiranĩtie na guoko gwakwa, na niĩ nyinamĩrĩre ho-rĩ, rĩrĩa ngainamĩrĩra ndĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Rimoni, Jehova arorekera ndungata yaku nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩka ũguo.”
19 Vnto whome he saide, Goe in peace. So he departed from him about halfe a dayes iourney of grounde.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ na thayũ.” Thuutha wa Naamani gũkorwo athiĩte itĩĩna-rĩ,
20 And Gehazi the seruant of Elisha the man of God sayde, Beholde, my master hath spared this Aramite Naaman, receiuing not those things at his hand that he brought: as the Lord liueth, I will runne after him, and take somewhat of him.
Gehazi, ndungata ya Elisha mũndũ wa Ngai, agĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Mwathi wakwa nĩahũthĩria Naamani ũcio Mũsuriata maũndũ nĩ kũrega kwamũkĩra indo iria ekũmũreheire. Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo-rĩ, niĩ nĩ ngũhanyũka ndĩmũkinyĩre nĩguo njoe kĩndũ kuuma harĩwe.”
21 So Gehazi followed speedily after Naaman. And when Naaman sawe him running after him, he light downe from the charet to meete him, and said, Is all well?
Tondũ ũcio Gehazi akĩhiũha nĩguo akinyĩre Naamani. Rĩrĩa Naamani aamuonire ahanyũkĩte arorete na kũrĩ we-rĩ, akiuma ngaari-inĩ ya ita nĩguo amũtũnge. Akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ mothe nĩ mega?”
22 And he answered, All is well: my master hath set me, saying, Behold, there be come to me, euen nowe from mount Ephraim two yong men of the children of the Prophets: giue them, I pray thee, a talent of siluer, and two change of garmets.
Nake Gehazi agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, maũndũ mothe nĩ mega. Mwathi wakwa aandũma ngwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Aanake eerĩ kuuma thiritũ-inĩ ya anabii mooka kũrĩ niĩ o rĩu, moimĩte bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu. Ndagũthaitha ũmahe taranda ĩmwe ya betha, na nguo cia magarũrĩra meerĩ.’”
23 And Naaman saide, Yea, take two talents: and he compelled him, and bound two talents of siluer in two bagges, with two change of garments, and gaue them vnto two of his seruants, that they might beare them before him.
Nake Naamani akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩtĩkĩra woe taranda igĩrĩ.” Agĩthaitha Gehazi aciĩtĩkĩre, ningĩ akĩoha taranda igĩrĩ cia thahabu agĩciĩkĩra mĩhuko-inĩ ĩĩrĩ hamwe na nguo cia magarũrĩra meerĩ. Nake akĩnengera ndungata ciake igĩrĩ, igĩkuua, igĩthiĩ mbere ya Gehazi.
24 And when he came to the towre, he tooke them out of their handes, and laide them in the house, and sent away the men: and they departed.
Rĩrĩa Gehazi aakinyire kĩrĩma-inĩ, agĩĩtia ndungata indo icio, agĩciiga nyũmba. Nake akiugĩra ndungata icio ũhoro, nacio igĩĩthiĩra.
25 Then he went in, and stoode before his master. And Elisha said vnto him, Whence commest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy seruant went no whither.
Thuutha ũcio agĩtoonya nyũmba akĩrũgama mbere ya mwathi wake Elisha. Nake Elisha akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Gehazi uuma kũ?” Nake Gehazi akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndungata yaku ndĩrĩ kũndũ ĩgũthiĩte.”
26 But he saide vnto him, Went not mine heart with thee when the man turned againe from his charet to meete thee? Is this a time to take money, and to receiue garments, and oliues, and vineyardes, and sheepe, and oxen, and men seruants, and maide seruants?
Nowe Elisha akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Githĩ roho wakwa nduuma hamwe nawe rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio oimire ngaari-inĩ ya ita agũtũnge? Nĩ ihinda rĩa kuoya mbeeca, kana kwamũkĩra nguo, na mĩgũnda ya mĩtamaiyũ na ya mĩthabibũ, na ndũũru cia mbũri na ngʼombe, na ndungata cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja?
27 The leprosie therefore of Naaman shall cleaue vnto thee, and to thy seede for euer. And he went out from his presence a leper white as snowe.
Mangũ ma Naamani nĩwe mekwĩgwatĩrĩra na njiaro ciaku nginya tene.” Hĩndĩ ĩyo Gehazi akĩehera harĩ Elisha arĩ na mangũ na akerũha, akahaana o ta ira.
