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.

Pea ko Neamani, ko e ʻeiki pule ki ke kautau ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Silia, ko e tangata ia naʻe ʻeiki mo ongoongolelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ʻiate ia, naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui ki Silia: ko e tangata foki ia naʻe mālohi ʻaupito ʻi he tau, ka ko e kilia.

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.

Pea ʻi he ʻalu atu ʻae ngaahi kongakau ʻoe kakai Silia, naʻa nau ʻomi pōpula ha taʻahine siʻi mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ki he uaifi ʻo Neamani.

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."

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene fineʻeiki, “Taumaiā kuo nofo ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki mo e palōfita ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Samēlia! he te ne fakamoʻui ia mei heʻene kilia.”

4 Someone went in, and told his lord, saying, "The maiden who is from the land of Israel said this."

Pea naʻe ʻalu ange ʻae tokotaha, mo ne tala ki heʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mo pehē ʻe he taʻahine ʻaia ʻoku mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Silia, “ʻOku lelei, ʻalu, pea te u ʻatu ha tohi ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu, pea ne ʻave mo ia ʻae taleniti siliva ʻe hongofulu, mo e konga koula ʻe ono afe, mo e kofu kātoa ʻe hongofulu.

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."

Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae tohi ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko eni ʻoka hoko atu ʻae tohi ni kiate koe, vakai, kuo u fekau atu mo ia kiate koe ʻa Neamani ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke ke fakamoʻui ia mei heʻene kilia.”

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."

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē hili ʻa ʻene lau ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae tohi, naʻa ne haehae ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, mo ne pehē, “He ko e ʻOtua au, ke tāmate mo fakamoʻui, kuo fekau ai ʻe he tangata ni ke u fakamoʻui ha tangata mei heʻene kilia? Ko ia mou vakai, pea mou tokanga ki heʻene kumi ha meʻa ke fakatupu ai ʻae kovi kiate au.”

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."

Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe ʻIlaisa ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he haehae ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, naʻa ne fekau ai ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo ke haehae ai ho ngaahi kofu? Tuku ke ne haʻu kiate au, pea te ne ʻilo ʻoku ai ha palōfita ʻi ʻIsileli.”

9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.

Ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Neamani mo ʻene fanga hoosi pea mo ʻene saliote, pea tuʻu ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIlaisa.

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."

Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe ʻIlaisa ha tangata fekau kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu ʻo kaukau ʻi Sioatani ke liunga fitu, pea ʻe toe hoko mai ho kakano kiate koe, pea te ke maʻa ai.”

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.'

Ka naʻe ʻita lahi ʻa Neamani, pea ʻalu ia, mo ne pehē, “Vakai, naʻaku pehē ʻeau, te ne ʻomi moʻoni kituʻa kiate au, pea tuʻu, ʻo ne ui ki he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, mo ne ala ʻaki ʻa hono nima ki he potu, mo ne fakamoʻui ai ʻae kilia.

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.

‌ʻIkai ʻoku lelei hake ʻa ʻApana mo Paapaa ko e vaitafe ʻi Tamasikusi, ʻi he ngaahi vai kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli? ʻIkai te u faʻa kaukau ʻi ai, pea u maʻa ai? Ko ia, naʻa ne foki atu ʻo ʻalu ʻi he ʻita lahi.”

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?'"

Pea naʻe fakaofi atu ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, mo nau lea kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEku tamai, ka ne tala ʻe he palōfita ke ke fai ha meʻa lahi, ʻikai kuo ke fai ia? Kae muʻa hake eni, ʻa ʻene pehē mai kiate koe, ‘Kaukau, pea te ke maʻa ai?’”

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.

Pea naʻa ne toki ʻalu hifo, mo ne kaukau ia ʻo liunga fitu ʻi Sioatani, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua: pea naʻe toe hoko mai kiate ia ʻa hono kakano, ʻo hangē ko e kakano ʻo ha tamasiʻi siʻi, pea naʻa ne maʻa ai.

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."

Pea naʻa ne toe ʻalu ange ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia mo ʻene kau fononga kotoa pē, pea haʻu, ʻo ne tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao: pea naʻa ne pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku ou toki ʻilo eni ʻoku ʻikai ha ʻOtua ʻi māmani kotoa pē, ka ʻi ʻIsileli pe: pea ko ia ʻoku ou kole, ke ke maʻu ha meʻaʻofa mei hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.”

16 But he said, "As YHWH lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none." He urged him to take it; but he refused.

Ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ou tuʻu ni ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻe ʻikai te u maʻu ha meʻa. Pea naʻa ne kole fakamātoato ke ne maʻu ia; ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ki ai.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Neamani, “Pea ka kuo pehē, ʻoku ou kole ai ke ʻomi ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha kavenga ʻe ua ʻoe kelekele ke fakaheka ki ha miuli ʻe ua? Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai siʻi toe ʻatu ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ha feilaulau tutu, pe ha feilaulau ki ha ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ka kia Sihova pe.”

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."

“Ke fakamolemole ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he meʻa ko eni, ʻoka hū atu ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ki he fale ʻo Limoni ke lotu ai, pea ʻoku ne faʻaki ki hoku nima, pea ʻoku ou punou hifo ʻi he fale ʻo Limoni: ʻo kau ka punou hifo au ʻi he fale ʻo Limoni, ke fakamolemole ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi he meʻa ni.”

19 He said to him, "Go in peace." So he departed from him a little way.

Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻi he fiemālie.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻo mamaʻo siʻi mei he potu ko ia.

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."

Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Kehesi ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻIlaisa ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Vakai, kuo mamae ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ki he tangata Silia ni ko Neamani, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene taʻemaʻu mei hono nima ʻae meʻa naʻa ne ʻomi: kae hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Sihova, te u lele atu kiate ia, ʻo maʻu ha meʻa meiate ia.”

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?"

Ko ia naʻe muimui atu ʻa Kehesi kia Neamani. Pea ʻi he sio ʻa Neamani ki heʻene lele mai kiate ia, naʻa ne ʻalu hifo mei heʻene saliote ke fetaulaki kiate ia mo ne pehē, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē?”

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.'"

Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē. Kuo fekau au ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki, ke fakahā, Vakai, kuo haʻu eni kiate au mei he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi ʻae ongo talavou mei he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita: pea ʻoku ou kole ke ke foaki kiate kinaua, ha taleniti siliva ʻe taha, mo e ngaahi kofu kātoa ʻe ua.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Neamani, “Ke ke fiemālie pe, ʻave ʻae taleniti ʻe ua.” Pea naʻa ne ueʻi mālohi ia, pea naʻa ne noʻotaki ʻae taleniti siliva ʻe ua ki he kato ʻe ua, mo e ngaahi kofu kātoa ʻe ua, pea naʻa ne ʻai ia ki heʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻe toko ua; pea naʻa na fua atu ia ʻi hono ʻao.

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.

Pea ʻi heʻene hoko atu ki he fale leʻo, naʻa ne toʻo ia mei hona nima, mo ne ʻai atu ia ki fale: pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻae ongo tangata ke ʻalu, pea naʻa na ʻalu.

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."

Ka naʻe hū atu ia [ki fale], mo ne tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻene ʻeiki. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻIlaisa kiate ia, “Kuo ke haʻu mei fē Kehesi?” Pea naʻa ne pehē ʻe ia, naʻe ʻikai ʻalu hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki ha potu.

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?

Pea naʻa ne pehēange kiate ia, “ʻIkai naʻe ʻalu ʻa hoku loto mo koe, ʻi heʻene tafoki mai ʻae tangata mei hono saliote ke fakafetaulaki kiate koe? He ko e kuonga eni ke maʻu kofu, mo e ngoue ʻolive, mo e ngoue vaine, mo e fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e kau kaunanga?

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.

Ko ia foki, ʻe piki kiate koe ʻae kilia naʻe ʻia Neamani, pea ki ho hako ʻo taʻengata.” Pea naʻa ne ʻalu atu mei hono ʻao ko e kilia ʻo tatau mo e ʻuha hinehina.
