< 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.
Naʼamaan ajajaa loltoota mooticha Sooriyaa ture. Sababii Waaqayyo karaa isaatiin warra Sooriyaatiif mooʼicha kenneef inni fuula gooftaa isaa duratti nama guddaa akka malee ulfina qabu ture. Inni loltuu jagna; garuu lamxii qaba ture.
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.
Bara sana keessa tuunni loltoota Sooriyaa dhaqee intala dargaggeettii gosa Israaʼel tokko boojiʼe; isheenis niitii Naʼamaan tajaajilaa turte.
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.'
Isheenis giiftii isheetiin, “Gooftaan koo utuu raajicha Samaariyaa jiru sana bira dhaqee silaa inni lamxii sana irraa isa fayyisa ture!” jette.
4 And he went in, and told his lord, saying: 'Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.'
Naʼamaan dhaqee waan intalli Israaʼel jetteen sana gooftaa isaatti ni hime.
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.
Mootiin Sooriyaas, “Waan fedhe illee taanaan ati dhaqi; ani mootii Israaʼelitti xalayaa nan barreessaatii” jedhee deebiseef. Kanaafuu Naʼamaan meetii taalaantii kudhan, warqee saqilii kuma jaʼaa fi uffata irraa jalaa kudhan fudhatee qajeele.
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.'
Xalayaan inni mootii Israaʼelitti geesse sun akkana jedha; “Ani akka ati lamxii irraa isa fayyiftuuf xalayaa kana wajjin tajaajilaa koo Naʼamaanin sitti ergeera.”
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.'
Mootiin Israaʼelis akkuma xalayaa sana dubbiseen uffata ofii tarsaasee akkana jedhe; “Ani Waaqaa? Ani nama ajjeesuu fi deebisee jiraachisuu nan dandaʼaa? Namichi kun maaliif akka lamxiin isaa fayyuuf nama natti erga? Mee akka inni lola natti kaasuu barbaadu ilaalaa!”
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.'
Elsaaʼi namni Waaqaa sun akka mootiin Israaʼel uffata isaa tarsaase dhageenyaan ergaa itti ergee, “Ati maaliif uffata kee tarsaafte? Namicha sana natti ergi; innis akka Israaʼel keessa raajiin jiru ni beekaatii” jedheen.
9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
Kanaafuu Naʼamaan fardeen isaatii fi gaariiwwan isaa fudhatee dhaqee balbala mana Elsaaʼi dura dhaabate.
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.'
Elsaaʼi immoo, “Dhaqii Yordaanos keessatti yeroo torba dhiqadhu; foon kee fayyee akka duraatti siif deebiʼa; atis ni qulqullooftaa” jedhee nama itti erge.
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.
Naʼamaan garuu aariidhaan kaʼee biraa deemee akkana jedhe; “Ani waan inni dhugumaan gara koo dhufee dhaabatee maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa waamee iddoo sana irra harka isaa qabee lamxii koo fayyisun seʼe.
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.
Abaanaa fi Faarfaan lageen Damaasqoo sun bishaanota Israaʼel keessaa kam iyyuu hin caalanii? Ani isaan keessatti dhiqadhee fayyuu hin dandaʼu turee?” Kanaafuu inni akka malee aaree of irra garagalee deeme.
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?'
Tajaajiltoonni Naʼamaanis gara isaa dhaqanii, “Yaa abbaa ko, ati utuu raajiin kun waan guddaa tokko hojjedhu siin jedhee ni hojjetta mitii? Yoo inni, ‘Dhiqadhuutii qulqullaaʼi’ siin jedhe immoo hammam caalchiftee hin hojjettu ree?” jedhaniin.
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.
Kanaafuu inni dhaqee akkuma namni Waaqaa sun jedheenitti yeroo torba Yordaanos keessa seenee baʼe; dhagni isaas fayyee akkuma duraatti deebiʼeefii akkuma dhagna mucaa xinnaa tokkootti qulqullaaʼeef.
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.'
Ergasii Naʼamaanii fi tajaajiltoonni isaa hundi gara nama Waaqaa sanaatti deebiʼan. Niʼimaanis fuula isaa dura dhaabatee, “Ani akka Israaʼel keessa malee addunyaa guutuu keessa Waaqni hin jirre amma beekeera. Kanaafuu maaloo garbicha kee irraa kennaa tokko fudhadhu” jedhe.
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.
Raajiin sun immoo, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa ani isa tajaajiluu sanaa, ani waan tokko illee sirraa hin fudhadhu” jedhee deebise. Yoo Naʼamaan cimsee isa kadhate iyyuu inni fudhachuu dide.
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.
Kana irratti Naʼamaan akkana jedheen; “Yoo fudhachuu baatte immoo, maaloo akka biyyoon gaangoo lamaa ana garbicha keetiif kennamu ajaji; garbichi kee siʼachi deebiʼee Waaqayyoof malee waaqota tolfamoo biraatiif aarsaa gubamuu fi qalma hin dhiʼeessuutii.
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.'
Garuu Waaqayyo waan tokkicha kana garbicha keetiif haa dhiisu: Gooftaan koo yommuu achitti sagaduuf mana qulqullummaa Rimoon seenutti natti irkata; anis yommuu inni sagadutti nan sagada; Waaqayyo waan kana ana garbicha keetiif haa dhiisu.”
19 And he said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he departed from him some way.
Eelisaaʼis, “Nagaan deemi” jedheen. Erga Naʼamaan xinnoo achi fagaatee booddee,
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.'
Gehaaz tajaajilaan Elsaaʼi nama Waaqaa sanaa akkana ofiin jedhe; “Gooftaan koo utuu kennaa inni fide sana irraa hin fudhatin Naʼamaan namicha warra Arraam kana akkasumatti gad lakkise. Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ani isa faana fiigeen waa irraa fudhadha.”
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?'
Kanaafuu Gehaaz dafee Niʼimaan duukaa buʼe. Naʼamaanis yommuu akka inni gara isaatti fiigaa jiru argetti isa simachuudhaaf gaarii irraa buʼee, “Wanni hundi nagumaa?” jedhee isa gaafate.
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.'
Gehaazis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Wanni hundinuu naguma. Gooftaan koo, ‘Kunoo ammuma waldaa raajotaa keessaa dargaggoonni lama biyya gaaraa Efreem irraa natti dhufaniiru. Maaloo meetii taalaantii tokkoo fi uffata irraa jalaa lama kenniif’ akkan siin jedhuuf na erge.”
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.
Naʼamaan immoo Gehaaziin, “Akkuma fedhe illee taʼu taalaantii lama fudhadhu” jedhe. Innis akka Gehaaz waan sana fudhatuuf cimsee isa kadhate; ergasiis meetii taalaantii lama borsaa lamatti hidhee uffata irraa jalaa lama wajjin tajaajiltoota isaatti kenne. Isaanis baatanii Gehaaz dura qajeelan.
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.
Gehaazis yommuu gaara bira gaʼetti waan sana hojjettoota sana harkaa fuudhee mana keessa ol kaaʼe. Namoota sanas of irraa geggeesse; isaanis kaʼanii deeman.
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.'
Innis ergasii dhaqee fuula gooftaa isaa Elsaaʼi dura dhaabate. Elsaaʼis, “Gehaaz, ati eessa turte?” jedhee gaafate. Gehaaz immoo, “Ani garbichi kee eessa iyyuu hin deemne” jedhee deebise.
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?
Elsaaʼi garuu akkana jedheen; “Yeroo namichi sun siʼi simachuuf gaarii isaa irraa buʼe sanatti hafuurri koo si wajjin hin turree? Yeroon kun yeroo itti maallaqa yookaan wayyaa, lafa qotiisaa ejersaa, iddoo dhaabaa wayinii, bushaayee, karra loonii yookaan garboota dhiiraa fi garboota nadheenii fudhataniidhaa?
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.
Lamxiin Naʼamaan sun hamma bara baraatti siʼii fi sanyii keetiitti qabatee hafa.” Innis lamxaaʼee akkuma cabbii addaatee fuula Elsaaʼi duraa baʼee deeme.
