2 Kings 5

1 And Naaman, head of the host of the king of Aram, was a great man before his lord, and accepted of face, for YHWH had given salvation to Aram by him, and the man was mighty in valor, [but] leprous.

Ngayon si Naaman, pinuno ng hukbo ng hari ng Aram, ay magiting at marangal sa paningin ng kaniyang panginoon, dahil sa pamamagitan niya, binigyan ng tagumpay ni Yahweh ang Aram. Malakas din siya at matapang pero isa siyang ketongin.

2 And the Arameans have gone out [by] troops, and they take a little girl captive out of the land of Israel, and she is before the wife of Naaman,

Lumusob ang mga Aramean nang grupo grupo at dinakip ang isang batang babae mula sa lupain ng Israel. Pinaglingkuran niya ang asawa ni Naaman.

3 and she says to her mistress, “O that my lord [were] before the prophet who [is] in Samaria; then he recovers him from his leprosy.”

Sinabi ng dalaga sa kaniyang madrasta, “Sana kasama ng amo ko ang propeta na nasa Samaria! Tiyak pagagalingin niya ang ketong ng panginoon ko.”

4 And [one] goes in and declares [it] to his lord, saying, “Thus and thus the girl who [is] from the land of Israel has spoken.”

Kaya sinabi ni Naaman sa hari ang sinabi ng dalaga mula sa lupain ng Israel.

5 And the king of Aram says, “Go, enter, and I send a letter to the king of Israel”; and he goes and takes in his hand ten talents of silver, and six thousand [pieces] of gold, and ten changes of garments.

Kaya sinabi ng hari ng Aram, “Lumakad ka, at magpapadala ako ng liham sa hari ng Israel.” Umalis si Naaman na may baong sampung talentong pilak, anim na libong piraso ng ginto, at sampung pamalit na damit.

6 And he brings in the letter to the king of Israel, saying, “And now, at the coming in of this letter to you, behold, I have sent my servant Naaman to you, and you have recovered him from his leprosy.”

Dinala rin niya ang liham sa hari ng Israel na nagsasabing, “Kapag dumating ang sulat na ito sa iyo, makikita mong pinadala ko si Naaman na aking lingkod sa iyo para pagalingin mo siya sa kaniyang ketong.”

7 And it comes to pass, at the king of Israel’s reading the letter, that he tears his garments and says, “Am I God, to put to death and to keep alive, that this [one] is sending to me to recover a man from his leprosy? For surely know now, and see, for he is presenting himself to me.”

Nang mabasa ng hari ng Israel ang liham, pinunit niya ang damit niya at sinabing, “Diyos ba ako, para pumatay at magbigay ng buhay kaya nais ng lalaking ito na pagalingin ko ang isang tao sa kaniyang ketong? Mukhang naghahamon siya ng away.”

8 And it comes to pass, at Elisha the man of God’s hearing that the king of Israel has torn his garments, that he sends to the king, saying, “Why have you torn your garments? Please let him come to me, and he knows that there is a prophet in Israel.”

Kaya nang marinig ni Eliseo, ang lingkod ng Diyos, na pinunit ng hari ng Israel ang kaniyang damit, nagpadala siya ng mensahe sa hari nagsasabing, “Bakit mo pinunit ang iyong mga damit? Papuntahin mo siya sa akin at malalaman niyang may propeta sa Israel.”

9 And Naaman comes, with his horses and with his chariot, and stands at the opening of the house for Elisha;

Kaya dumating si Naaman kasama ng kaniyang mga kabayo at karwahe at tumayo sa pinto ng bahay ni Eliseo.

10 and Elisha sends a messenger to him, saying, “Go, and you have washed seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh turns back to you—and be clean.”

Nagpadala si Eliseo ng mensahero sa kaniya, sinasabing, “Lumublob ka sa Jordan ng pitong beses, at maibabalik ang kutis mo; ikaw ay magiging malinis.”

11 And Naaman is angry, and goes on and says, “Behold, I said, He certainly comes out to me, and has stood and called in the Name of his God YHWH, and waved his hand over the place, and recovered the leper.

Pero nagalit si Naaman at umalis, sinasabing, “Tingnan mo, akala ko siguradong lalabas siya para sa akin at tatayo at tatawag sa pangalan ni Yahweh na kaniyang Diyos, at ikukumpas ang kamay niya sa buong katawan ko para pagalingin ako sa aking ketong.

12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Do I not wash in them and I have been clean?” And he turns and goes on in fury.

Hindi ba't ang Abana at Farfar, mga ilog ng Damasco, ay mas malinis kaysa lahat ng tubig sa Israel? Hindi ba pwedeng doon ako maligo para maging malinis?” Kaya tumalikod siya at umalis nang galit na galit.

13 And his servants come near, and speak to him, and say, “My father, the prophet had spoken a great thing to you—do you not do [it]? And surely, when he has said to you, Wash, and be clean.”

Pagkatapos lumapit ang mga lingkod ni Naaman at kinausap siya, “Ama, kung inutusan ka ng propeta ng isang mahirap na bagay, hindi mo ba gagawin ito? Paano pa kaya kung magsabi siya sa iyo ng isang simpleng bagay gaya ng, 'Lumublob ka para maging malinis ka?'”

14 And he goes down and dips in the Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh turns back as the flesh of a little youth, and is clean.

Kaya nagpunta siya at lumublob ng pitong beses sa Jordan bilang pagsunod sa mga tagubilin ng lingkod ng Diyos. Bumalik ang kaniyang kutis, tulad ng kutis ng isang maliit na bata, at siya ay gumaling.

15 And he turns back to the man of God, he and all his camp, and comes in, and stands before him, and says, “Now behold, I have known that there is not a God in all the earth except in Israel; and now, please take a blessing from your servant.”

Bumalik si Naaman sa lingkod ng Diyos, siya at ang lahat ng kaniyang kasama, at lumapit sila sa harap niya. Sinabi niya, “Alam kong wala nang ibang diyos sa buong mundo maliban sa Israel. Kaya pakiusap, tanggapin mo ang regalong ito mula sa iyong lingkod.”

16 And he says, “YHWH lives, before whom I have stood—if I take [it]”; and he presses on him to take, and he refuses.

Pero tumugon si Eliseo, “Hangga't nabubuhay si Yahweh na aking pinaglilingkuran, hindi ako tatanggap ng anumang bagay.” Pinilit ni Naaman si Eliseo na tanggapin ang regalo pero tumanggi ito.

17 And Naaman says, “If not, please let a couple of mules’ burden of earth be given to your servant, for your servant makes no more burnt-offering and sacrifice to other gods, but [only sacrifices] to YHWH.

Kaya sinabi ni Naaman, “Kung hindi, maaari mo ba akong bigyan ng lupa na kayang dalhin ng dalawang mola, dahil simula ngayon, ang iyong lingkod ay hindi na maghahandog, ni mag-aalay sa sinumang diyos maliban kay Yahweh.

18 For in this thing may YHWH be propitious to your servant, in the coming in of my lord into the house of Rimmon to bow himself there, and he was supported by my hand, and I bowed myself [in] the house of Rimmon; for my bowing myself in the house of Rimmon, may YHWH now be propitious to your servant in this thing.”

Pero patawarin sana ni Yahweh ang iyong lingkod sa isang bagay na ito, iyon ay, kapag pumunta ang hari sa tahanan ni Rimmon para sumamba roon, at kumapit siya sa kamay ko, at yumuko ako sa tahanan ni Rimmon. Patawarin nawa ni Yahweh ang iyong lingkod sa bagay na ito.”

19 And he says to him, “Go in peace.” And he goes from him a distance of land,

Sinabi ni Eliseo sa kaniya, “Humayo ka nang mapayapa.” Kaya umalis si Naaman.

20 and Gehazi, servant of Elisha the man of God, says, “Behold, my lord has spared this Aramean Naaman, not to receive from his hand that which he brought; for YHWH lives; if I have run after him, then I have taken something from him.”

Hindi pa siya nakakalayo sa kaniyang paglalakbay nang si Gehazi lingkod ni Eliseo na lingkod ng Diyos ay sinabi sa kaniyang sarili, “Kinaawaan ng panginoon ko si Naaman na Aramean sa pamamagitan ng hindi pagtanggap ng mga regalo mula sa kamay niya na kaniyang dinala. Hangga't nabubuhay si Yahweh, hahabulin ko siya at tatanggap ako ng anumang bagay mula sa kaniya.”

21 And Gehazi pursues after Naaman, and Naaman sees one running after him, and comes down off the chariot to meet him, and says, “Is there peace?”

Kaya sumunod si Gehazi kay Naaman. Nang nakita ni Naaman na may taong sumusunod sa kaniya, bumaba siya mula sa kaniyang karwahe para salubungin siya at sinabing, “Maayos lang ba ang lahat?”

22 And he says, “Peace; my lord has sent me, saying, Behold, now, this, two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill-country of Ephraim; please give a talent of silver and two changes of garments to them.”

Sinabi ni Gehazi, “Maayos naman ang lahat. Pinadala ako ng aking panginoon, sinasabing, 'May lumapit sa akin mula sa bansa sa burol ng Efraim, dalawang lalaki na anak ng mga propeta. Pakiusap bigyan mo sila ng isang talentong pilak at dalawang pamalit na damit.”

23 And Naaman says, “Be pleased, take two talents”; and he urges him, and binds two talents of silver in two purses, and two changes of garments, and gives [them] to two of his young men, and they carry [them] before him;

Tumugon si Naaman, “Masaya akong bigyan ka ng dalawang talento.” Hinimok ni Naaman si Gehazi at nagtali ng dalawang talentong pilak sa dalawang sisidlan, na may dalawang pamalit na damit, at ipinapasan ito sa kaniyang dalawang lingkod na nagdala ng mga sisidlan ng pilak para kay Gehazi.

24 and he comes to the high place, and takes [them] out of their hand, and lays [them] up in the house, and sends the men away, and they go.

Nang dumating si Gehazi sa burol, kinuha niya ang sisidlan ng pilak mula sa mga kamay nila at tinago ang mga ito sa bahay; pinaalis niya ang mga lingkod at umalis sila.

25 And he has come in, and stands by his lord, and Elisha says to him, “From where—Gehazi?” And he says, “Your servant did not go here or there.”

Nang pumasok si Gehazi at humarap sa kaniyang amo, sinabi ni Eliseo, “Saan ka nanggaling, Gehazi?” Tumugon siya, “Diyan-diyan lang nagpunta ang iyong lingkod.”

26 And he says to him, “My heart did not go when the man turned from off his chariot to meet you; is it a time to take silver, and to take garments, and olives, and vines, and flock, and herd, and menservants, and maidservants?

Sinabi ni Eliseo kay Gehazi, “Hindi ba kasama mo ang espiritu ko nang huminto ang karwahe ng lalaking iyon para salubungin ka? Ito ba ang oras para tumanggap ng pera, damit, mga olibong halamanan at mga ubasan, mga tupa, mga baka, at mga lingkod na lalaki at babae?

27 Indeed, the leprosy of Naaman cleaves to you and to your seed for all time”; and he goes out from before him—leprous as snow.

Kaya ang ketong ni Naaman ay papasa-iyo at iyong mga kaapu-apuhan magpakailanaman.” Kaya umalis si Gehazi sa kaniyang harapan, isang ketongin na kasing puti ng bulak.
