2 Kings 5
1 Now Naaman, captain of the army of the king of Aram, was a great man with his master, and honorable, because by him YHWH had given victory to Aram: he was also a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.
Nʼoge a, Neeman bụ ọchịagha ndị agha eze Aram, Ọ bụ onye dị ukwuu nʼanya nna ya ukwu, bụrụkwa onye a na-enye nsọpụrụ nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼaka ya nye ndị agha Aram mmeri nʼọgbọ agha dị iche iche. Ọ bụ dike na dimkpa nʼagha, maọbụ onye ekpenta.
2 The Arameans had gone out in bands, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maiden; and she waited on Naaman's wife.
Otu mgbe, ụfọdụ nʼime ndị agha Aram na-apụnara ndị mmadụ ihe pụrụ ga dọta otu nwaagbọghọ nta site nʼIzrel, onye na-ejere nwunye Neeman ozi.
3 She said to her mistress, "I wish that my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria. Then he would heal him of his leprosy."
Ọ sịrị nne ya ukwu, “Ọ gaara atọ m ụtọ ma a sị na nna m ukwu ga-aga hụ onye amụma nọ na Sameria. Ọ ga-agwọ ya ọrịa ekpenta a.”
4 Someone went in, and told his lord, saying, "The maiden who is from the land of Israel said this."
Neeman nụrụ nke a, bilie gaa kọọrọ eze Aram ihe niile nwaagbọghọ a si Izrel kwuru.
5 The king of Aram said, "Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel." He departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing.
Eze Aram sịrị, “Bilie, gaa, aga m ezigakwara eze Izrel akwụkwọ ozi.” Ya mere Neeman gara, ọ chịịrị talenti ọlaọcha iri, na puku shekel ọlaedo isii, na uwe ọma dị iche iche, nke dị iri nʼọnụọgụgụ.
6 He brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, "Now when this letter has come to you, look, I have sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may heal him of his leprosy."
Nke a bụkwa ihe dị nʼime akwụkwọ ahụ eze Aram degaara eze Izrel: “Nwoke a ji akwụkwọ a bịakwute gị bụ Neeman, onyeisi ndị agha m. Biko, achọrọ m ka ị gwọọ ya ọrịa ekpenta dị ya nʼahụ.”
7 It happened, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he tore his clothes, and said, "Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man sends to me to heal a man of his leprosy? But please consider and see how he seeks a quarrel against me."
Ngwangwa eze Izrel gụrụ akwụkwọ ahụ, ọ dọwara uwe ya sị, “Abụ m Chineke? A pụrụ m ime ka mmadụ nwụọ na ime ka mmadụ dị ndụ? Gịnị mere nwoke a ji ezitere m onye m ga-agwọ ọrịa ekpenta? Lee ka o si na-achọ ụzọ anyị ga-eji nwee esemokwu.”
8 It was so, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, "Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel."
Mgbe Ịlaisha onye Chineke nụrụ na eze Izrel dọwara uwe ya, o ziri ozi a zigara ya sị, “Gịnị mere i ji dọwaa uwe gị? Zitere m Neeman. Ọ ga-amatakwa na e nwere onye amụma nʼIzrel.”
9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
Ya mere, Neeman bịarutere guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ Ịlaisha, ya na ịnyịnya ya, na ụgbọ agha ya.
10 Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, "Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again to you, and you shall be clean."
Ịlaisha zigara onyeozi ya nke bịara zie sị ya, “Jee saa ahụ gị ugboro asaa nʼosimiri Jọdan. I mee nke a, ekpenta ahụ ga-esi nʼakụkụ ahụ gị niile pụọ. Ị ga-adịkwa ọcha.”
11 But Naaman was angry, and went away, and said, "Look, I thought, 'He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of YHWH his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leper.'
Ma Neeman were iwe nke ukwuu tụgharịa bido ịlaghachi ebe o si bịa. Mgbe ọ na-ala, ọ na-ekwu na-asị, “Echere m na ọ ga-apụkwute m, guzo, kpọkuo aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya, fufee aka ya nʼebe ahụ ọrịa m dị, gwọọ m ọrịa ekpenta m.
12 Aren't Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn't I go wash in them, and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage.
Abana na Fapa, bụ osimiri dị na Damaskọs, ha adịghị mma karịa mmiri Izrel niile? Ọ bụ na m enweghị ike ịsa ahụ nʼime ha ma dị ọcha.” Ọ tụgharịrị jiri ọnụma pụọ.
13 His servants came near, and spoke to him, and said, "My father, if the prophet had asked you to do some great thing, wouldn't you have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you, 'Wash, and be clean?'"
Ma ndị ozi Neeman jekwuru ya sị ya, “Nna anyị, a sị na ọ bụ ihe sịrị ike nke ukwuu ka onye amụma ahụ gwara gị sị gị mee, ị garaghị eme ya? Ma ihe ọ sị gị mee bụ naanị ‘Gaa saa ahụ gị ka ị dị ọcha.’”
14 Then he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Ya mere, ọ gara sụnye onwe ya nʼime osimiri Jọdan ugboro asaa, dịka onye nke Chineke gwara ya. Anụ ahụ ya lọghachiri dị ọcha ka anụ ahụ nwantakịrị.
15 He returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him; and he said, "See now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel. Now therefore, please take a gift from your servant."
Mgbe ahụ, Neeman na ndị niile ya na ha so laghachikwutere onye nke Chineke. O guzoro nʼihu ya sị, “Ugbu a amatala m na ọ dịghị Chineke ọzọ dị nʼụwa niile ma ọ bụghị naanị nʼIzrel. Ya mere, biko, nara onyinye a site nʼaka ohu gị.”
16 But he said, "As YHWH lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none." He urged him to take it; but he refused.
Ma Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ, bụ onye m na-ejere ozi, agaghị m ana gị ihe ọbụla.” Ma Neeman rịọrọ ya arịrịọ ka ọ nara ya, ma ọ jụrụ ajụ.
17 Naaman said, "If not, then, please let two mules' burden of earth be given to your servant; for your servant will from now on offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to other gods, but to YHWH.
Mgbe ahụ Neeman sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị gaghị anara, biko, kwerenụ ka m kporo aja nke ịnyịnya abụọ nwere ike ibu. Nʼihi na site ugbu a gaa nʼihu, agaghị m achụrụ chi ọzọ aja nsure ọkụ, ma ọ bụghị naanị Onyenwe anyị.
18 In this thing may YHWH pardon your servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leans on my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon. When I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, may YHWH pardon your servant in this thing."
Ma ka Onyenwe anyị gbaghara ohu gị naanị otu ihe a. Mgbe nna m ukwu banyere nʼụlọ arụsị Rimọn ịkpọ isiala, mgbe ọ na-adabere nʼaka m, nke ga-eme ka mụ onwe m kpọọkwa isiala. Mgbe m si otu a kpọọ isiala nʼụlọ arụsị Rimọn, ka Onyenwe anyị gbaghara ohu gị nʼihi nke a.”
19 He said to him, "Go in peace." So he departed from him a little way.
Ịlaisha zara sị ya, “Ọ dị mma, laa nʼudo.” Mgbe Neeman lawara, o jerubeghị ebe dị anya,
20 But Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, "Look, my master has spared this Naaman the Aramean, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought. As YHWH lives, I will run after him, and take something from him."
Gehazi, bụ onyeozi Ịlaisha onye nke Chineke, sịrị nʼobi ya, “Nna m ukwu emezighị ikwere ka Neeman onye Aram laa na-anataghị ya ihe o ji bịa. Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ, aga m eji ọsọ gbakwuru ya napụta ya ụfọdụ ihe ahụ.”
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. When Naaman saw one running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him, and said, "Is all well?"
Ya mere, Gehazi gbara ọsọ gbakwuru Neeman. Mgbe Neeman hụrụ ya ka ọ gba ọsọ na-abịa, o si nʼelu ụgbọ agha ya wudata gaa zute ya, jụọ ya sị: “Udo ọ dịkwa?”
22 He said, "All is well. My master has sent me, saying, 'Look, even now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing.'"
“E, udo dị,” ka Gehazi zara, “Onyenwe m zitere m ka m gwa gị, ‘Lee, ụmụ okorobịa abụọ nʼetiti ndị amụma si nʼugwu Ifrem bịakwute m. Biko nye ha otu talenti ọlaọcha na uwe mgbanwe abụọ.’”
23 Naaman said, "Be pleased to take two talents." He urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing, and laid them on two of his servants; and they carried them before him.
Ma Neeman zara sị ya, “Biko, were talenti abụọ.” Ọ kwagidere Gehazi ka ọ nara ha. O kechiri talenti ọlaọcha abụọ ahụ nʼakpa abụọ, tinyere uwe mgbanwe abụọ. O bunyere ndị ohu ya ka ha buru ya na-aga nʼihu Gehazi.
24 When he came to the hill, he took them from their hand, and stored them in the house. Then he let the men go, and they departed.
Ma mgbe ha rutere nʼugwu, Gehazi naara ndị ohu Neeman ihe ndị ahụ, sị ha laghachikwa. O zoro ihe ndị ahụ nʼime ụlọ.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, "Where did you come from, Gehazi?" He said, "Your servant went nowhere."
Mgbe ọ batara nʼụlọ guzo nʼihu nna ya ukwu, Ịlaisha jụrụ ya sị, “Ebee ka i si na-abịa Gehazi?” Ọ zara, “Ohu gị ejeghị ebe ọbụla.”
26 He said to him, "Did not my heart go with you, when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and olive groves and vineyards, and sheep and cattle, and male servants and female servants?
Mgbe ahụ Ịlaisha zara ya, “Ọ bụ na mmụọ m esoghị gị mgbe nwoke ahụ si nʼụgbọ ya rịdata izute gị? Oge a ọ bụ oge ịnara ego, na ịnara uwe, na ịnara ubi oliv, na ubi vaịnị, na igwe ehi, na igwe atụrụ, na ndị ohu ndị ikom, na ndị ohu ndị inyom na-eje ozi?
27 Therefore the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and to your descendants forever." He went out from his presence a leper, as white as snow.
Nʼihi nke a, ekpenta ahụ dị Neeman ga-abịakwasị gị, na ụmụ ụmụ gị, ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.” Ya mere, Gehazi ghọrọ onye ekpenta si nʼihu ya pụọ. Anụ ahụ ya bidokwara ịcha ọcha dịka ogho ọcha.
