< 2 Kings 5 >

1 Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Aram, was a great man with his master, and held in esteem, because by him the LORD had given victory unto Aram; he was also a mighty man of valour, but he was a leper.
Ary Namàna, komandin’ ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria, dia olona lehibe teo anatrehan’ ny tompony sady nanan-kaja, satria izy no namonjen’ i Jehovah an’ i Syria; ary lehilahy mahery izy, nefa kosa boka.
2 And the Arameans 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.
Ary ny Syriana nivoaka nanao an-tokony ka nitondra ny zazavavy kely anankiray babo avy tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely; ary nanompo ny vadin’ i Namana io.
3 And she said unto her mistress: 'Would that my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! then would he recover him of his leprosy.'
Ary hoy io tamin’ ny tompovaviny: Enga anie ka mba ao amin’ ny mpaminany izay any Samaria ny tompoko! dia hahasitrana azy amin’ ny habokany izy.
4 And he went in, and told his lord, saying: 'Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.'
Ary niditra Namana ka nilaza tamin’ ny tompony hoe: Izany ka izany no nolazain’ ilay zazavavy izay avy tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely.
5 And the king of Aram said: 'Go now, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel.' And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.
Dia hoy ny mpanjakan’ i Syria: Andeha ary mandeha, fa hampitondra taratasy ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely aho. Dia lasa izy sady nitondra talenta volafotsy folo sy volamena enina arivo sekely ary akanjo im-polo miova teny an-tànany.
6 And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying: 'And now when this letter is come unto thee, behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy.'
Ary izy nitondra ny taratasy ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nanao hoe: Ary raha tonga atỳ aminao ity taratasy ity, dia ho fantatrao fa efa nampandeha an’ i Namàna mpanompoko aho hankatỳ aminao, koa sitrano amin’ ny habokany izy.
7 And it came to pass, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his clothes, and said: 'Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man doth send unto me to recover a man of his leprosy? but consider, I pray you, and see how he seeketh an occasion against me.'
Ary nony efa novakin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ny taratasy, dia nandriatra ny fitafiany izy ka nanao hoe: Andriamanitra va aho ka hahafaty na hahavelona, no anirahan’ ilehiny atỳ amiko mba hahasitrana olona amin’ ny habokany? Koa masìna ianareo, fantaro sy izahao fa mila ady amiko mihitsy izy.
8 And it was so, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying: 'Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.'
Ary rehefa ren’ i Elisa, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, fa nandriatra ny fitafiany ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia naniraka tany amin’ ny mpanjaka izy ka nanao hoe: Nahoana no nandriatra ny fitafianao ianao? Aoka izy hankatỳ amiko, dia ho fantany fa misy mpaminany tokoa ao amin’ ny Isiraely.
9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
Ary dia nandeha Namàna nitondra ny soavaliny sy ny kalesiny ka nijanona teo am-baravaran’ ny tranon’ i Elisa.
10 And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying: 'Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come back to thee, and thou shalt be clean.'
Ary Elisa naniraka olona tany aminy hilaza hoe: Mandehana, mandroa impito ao Jordana, dia hody aminao indray ny nofonao, ka hadio ianao.
11 But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said: 'Behold, I thought: He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place, and recover the leper.
Fa tezitra Namàna, dia lasa ka nanao hoe: Indro, nataoko fa hivoaka hankatỳ amiko mihitsy izy ka hitsangana ary hiantso ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny sady hanevaheva ny tànany eo ambonin’ ny aretina ka hahasitrana ny boka.
12 Are not Amanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean?' So he turned, and went away in a rage.
Tsy tsara noho ny ranon’ ny Isiraely rehetra va Abana sy Farpara, onin’ i Damaskosy? Tsy mahazo mandro ao amin’ ireo va aho ka hadio? Dia nihodina izy ka lasa an-katezerana.
13 And his servants came near, and spoke unto him, and said: 'My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee: Wash, and be clean?'
Dia nanatona ny mpanompony ka niteny taminy hoe: Ry ikaky ô, na dia zavatra lehibe aza no nasain’ ny mpaminany ho nataonao, moa tsy mba ho nataonao va izany? koa mainka va, raha hoy izy aminao: Mandroa, dia hadio ianao?
14 Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh came back like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Dia nidina izy ka nisitrika tao Jordana impito araka ny tenin’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra: ary ny nofony dia tonga tahaka ny nofon-jazakely indray, ka nadio izy.
15 And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him; and he said: 'Behold now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel; now therefore, I pray thee, take a present of thy servant.'
Ary niverina nankao amin’ ny lehilahin’ Andriamanitra izy mbamin’ izay rehetra nanaraka azy, dia tonga tao ary nitsangana teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Indro, fantatro fa tsy misy Andriamanitra amin’ ny tany rehetra, afa-tsy ato amin’ ny Isiraely ihany koa masìna ianao, raiso ny saotra aterin’ ny mpanomponao.
16 But he said: 'As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none.' And he urged him to take it; but he refused.
Fa hoy izy: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay itsanganako eo anatrehany, tsy handray mihitsy aho. Ary nanery azy handray izy; fa tsy nety Elisa.
17 And Naaman said: 'If not, yet I pray thee let there be given to thy servant two mules' burden of earth; for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt-offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the LORD.
Ary hoy Namana: Masìna ianao, moa tsy homena tany zakan’ ny ampondra roa va izaho mpanomponao? fa ny mpanomponao tsy mba hanatitra fanatitra dorana na fanatitra hafa intsony ho an’ ny andriamani-kafa, fa ho an’ i Jehovah ihany.
18 In this thing the LORD pardon thy servant: when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leaneth on my hand, and I prostrate myself in the house of Rimmon, when I prostrate myself in the house of Rimmon, the LORD pardon thy servant in this thing.'
Nefa ny amin’ izao zavatra izao dia aoka havelan’ i Jehovah ny heloky ny mpanomponao: raha ny tompoko miditra ao an-tranon-dRimona hiankohoka ao ary mitehina amin’ ny tanako, ka mba miankohoka ao an-tranon-dRimona aho, raha miankohoka ao aho, Jehovah anie hamela ny heloky ny mpanomponao amin’ izany zavatra izany.
19 And he said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he departed from him some way.
Ary hoy izy taminy: Mandehana soa aman-tsara. Ary dia niala taminy izy ka lasa lavidavitra.
20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said: 'Behold, my master hath spared this Naaman the Aramean, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought; as the LORD liveth, I will surely run after him, and take somewhat of him.'
Fa hoy Gehazy, zatovon’ i Elisa, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra: Indro, ny tompoko namela fotsiny ity Namàna Syriana ity ka tsy nandray tamin’ ny tànany izay zavatra nentiny, fa raha velona koa Jehovah, dia hihazakazaka hanaraka azy aho ka handray zavatra aminy.
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw one running after him, he alighted from the chariot to meet him, and said: 'Is all well?'
Ka dia lasa Gehazy nanaraka an’ i Namàna Ary nony tazan’ i Namàna avy mihazakazaka manaraka azy izy, dia niala faingana tamin’ ny kalesy hitsena azy izy ka nanao hoe: Tsara ihany va?
22 And he said: 'All is well. My master hath sent me, saying: Behold, even now there are come to me from the hill-country of Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets; give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of raiment.'
Ary hoy izy: Tsara ihany; kanefa ny tompoko naniraka ahy hilaza hoe: Indro ankehitriny misy zatovo roa lahy amin’ ny zanaky ny mpaminany tonga atỳ amiko avy any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima; koa masìna ianao, omeo talenta volafotsy sy fitafiana indroa miova izy.
23 And Naaman said: 'Be content, 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 servants; and they bore them before him.
Ary hoy Namàna: Aoka handray talenta roa ianao. Ary nanery azy izy sady namehy talenta volafotsy roa tao anaty kitapo roa mbamin’ ny fitafiana indroa miova, ka nampitondrainy ny zatovony roa lahy izany; ary nitondra izany teo alohany ireo.
24 And when he came to the hill, he took them from their hand, and deposited them in the house; and he let the men go, and they departed.
Fa nony tonga tao amin’ ny havoana izy, dia nalainy teny an-tànany izany ka napetrany tao an-trano; dia nampandehaniny ireo, ka dia lasa izy.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him: 'Whence comest thou, Gehazi?' And he said: 'Thy servant went no whither.'
Fa Gehazy kosa niditra ka nitsangana teo anatrehan’ ny tompony. Ary hoy Elisa taminy: Avy taiza ianao, ry Gehazy? Dia hoy izy: Tsy avy taiza tsy avy taiza ny mpanomponao.
26 And he said unto him: 'Went not my heart with thee, when the man turned back 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 men-servants and maid-servants?
Fa hoy kosa Elisa taminy: Tsy niaraka taminao ihany va ny foko tamin’ ilay nihodina niala tamin’ ny kalesy hitsena anao ralehilahy? Moa andro fandraisam-bola, na fandraisana fitafiana, na tanin’ oliva, na tanim-boaloboka, na ondry aman’ osy, na omby, na ankizilahy, na ankizivavy va izao?
27 The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever.' And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.
Koa ny habokan’ i Namàna dia hiraikitra aminao sy ny taranakao mandrakizay. Ary niala teo anatrehany izy ka, indro, boka fotsy toy ny oram-panala.
