< 2 Kings 5 >

1 Now, Naaman, general of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man in presence of his lord, and held in honour, because, by him, had Yahweh given deliverance to Syria, —and, the man, was a hero of valour—[but], a leper.
Naaman el mwet kol fulat lun un mwet mweun lun Syria, su arulana akfulatyeyuk ac akilenyuk yohk sin tokosra lun Syria, mweyen ke sripal Naaman LEUM GOD El tuh sang kutangla nu sin un mwet mweun lun Syria. El mwet mweun na pwengpeng se, tusruktu el weak musen lepa.
2 Now, the Syrians, had gone out in companies, and had brought back out of the land of Israel, a little maiden, —who became an attendant on the wife of Naaman.
Ke sie fwil in orek lokoalok lalos nu sin mwet Israel, mwet Syria ah tuh usla sie tulik mutan Israel, ac sang tuh elan mutan kulansap lun mutan kial Naaman.
3 And she said unto her mistress, Ah! would that my lord were before the prophet, who is in Samaria! then, would he set him free from his leprosy.
Sie len ah, tulik mutan sac fahk nu sin mutan kacto lal, “Saok leum luk elan som nu yurin mwet palu se su muta Samaria. El ku in akkeyalla ke mas lal uh.”
4 And he went in and told his lord, saying, —Thus and thus, hath spoken the maiden who is of the land of Israel!
Ke Naaman el lohngak, el som nu yurin tokosra ac fahkang nu sel ma tulik mutan sac fahk inge.
5 And the king of Syria said—Go, get in, that I may send a letter unto the king of Israel. So he went, and took in his hand ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.
Na tokosra el fahk, “Fahla nu yurin tokosra lun Israel ac us leta se inge nu sel.” Na Naaman el mukuiyak, ac el us tolngoul tausin ipin silver, onkosr tausin ipin gold, ac singoul nuknuk in ayaol wowo.
6 And he brought in the letter unto the king of Israel, saying, Now, therefore, when this letter cometh in unto thee, lo! I have sent unto thee, Naaman my servant, and thou shalt set him free from his leprosy.
Ac koanon leta se el us ah fahk ouinge: “Leta se inge ma fahkyal Naaman, mwet leum lun mwet mweun luk. Nga ke kom in akkeyalla ke mas lal uh.”
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 is sending unto me, to set one free from his leprosy, —but, of a truth, just mark, I pray you, and see, that he, is seeking an occasion, against me.
Ke tokosra lun Israel el riti leta sac, el arulana fosrnga ac salik nuknuk lal ac fahk, “Ku tokosra Syria el nunku ngan akkeyala mwet se inge fuka? Mea, el nunku mu nga pa God, ac oasr ku luk in sang moul ac misa? Kalem lah el ke suk in oasr alein inmasrlosr!”
8 And it was so, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent unto the king, saying—Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come, I pray thee, unto me, that he may get to know that there is a prophet in Israel.
Ke Elisha mwet palu el lohng ke ma sikyak inge, el sapla nu sel tokosra ac fahk, “Efu ku kom fohs? Supwama mwet sacn nu yuruk, ac nga fah oru in kalem sel lah oasr mwet palu se in Israel!”
9 So Naaman came, with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the entrance of the house of Elisha;
Ouinge Naaman el som wi horse ac chariot natul, ac tui ke mutunoa in lohm sel Elisha.
10 and Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, —Go and bathe seven times in the Jordan, so shall thy flesh come back to thee, and be thou clean.
Elisha el supwala sie mwet kulansap lal ah in som fahkang elan som nu Infacl Jordan ac yihla pacl itkosr, na el ac fah arulana kwela liki mas lal ah.
11 But Naaman was wroth, and went away, —and said—Lo! I thought, Unto me, will he, come right out, and take his stand, and call on the name of Yahweh his God, and wave his hand towards the spot, and so set free the leper.
Tuh Naaman el foloyak folokla, ac el fahk, “Nga nunku mu el ac ilme nu yuruk ac pre nu sin LEUM GOD lal, ac srukak paol nu fin acn ma nga maskin inge ac akkeyeyula.
12 Are not, Abanah and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not bathe, in them, and be clean? So he turned, and went away in a rage.
Mea, infacl Abana ac Pharpar in acn Damascus tia wo liki infacl nukewa in Israel? Nga lukun yihlana we, ac kwela!”
13 Then drew near his servants, and spake unto him, and said—My father! if, some great thing, the prophet had commanded thee, wouldst thou not have done it? then, how much rather, when he hath said unto thee, Bathe and be clean?
Mwet kulansap lal elos kalukyang nu yorol ac fahk, “Leuwa, mwet palu sac funu fahk kom in oru sie ma na upa, kom lukun orala na. Na efu kom ku tia yihlana oana ke el fahk an, kom in kwela?”
14 Then went he down, and dipped himself in the Jordan, seven times, according to the word of the man of God: and his flesh came back, as the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Ouinge Naaman el oatui nu Infacl Jordan, ipatokla otyak pacl itkosr, oana ke Elisha mwet palu el fahk, na el kwela na pwaye. Manol sifil fonla ac fwella oana monin tulik fusr.
15 And he returned unto the man of God, he and all his company; and came, and took his stand before him, and said—Lo! I pray thee—I know that there is no God in all the earth, save in Israel, —now, therefore, I pray thee, accept a blessing from thy servant.
El folokla nu yorol Elisha wi mwet lal nukewa ac fahk, “Inge nga etu lah wangin siena god sayen God lun Israel. Ke ma inge, nunak munas eis mwe lung nga sot inge.”
16 But he said—By the life of Yahweh, before whom I stand, I will not accept one. And, though he urged him to accept it, yet did he refuse.
Elisha el topuk, “Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul su nga kulansupu, nga fulahk lah nga ac tia eis kutena mwe lung sum.” Naaman el kwafe nu sel elan eis, tuh el tiana eis.
17 Then said Naaman, Shall there not, then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant, two mules’ burden of earth? For thy servant will henceforth offer neither ascending-offering nor sacrifice to other gods, save only to Yahweh.
Ke ma inge Naaman el fahk, “Kom fin tia lungse eis mwe lung inge, kom lela nu sik in eis luo kal in fohk in acn sum nu yen sik fin miul lukwa nutik, mweyen ingela nga ac tia sifilpa orek kisa ku mwe kisa firir nu sin kutena god sayen LEUM GOD.
18 In this thing, Yahweh grant forgiveness to thy servant, —When my lord entereth the house of Rimmon, to bow down therein, he leaning upon my hand, and so I bow down in the house of Rimmon, when he boweth down in the house of Rimmon, Yahweh, I pray, grant forgiveness to thy servant, in this thing.
Nga finsrak mu LEUM GOD El ac nunak munas nu sik nga fin atlol tokosra luk nu in Tempul lun Rimmon, god lun Syria, ac welul pasrla ke el alu nu sel. Nga lulalfongi lah LEUM GOD El ac nunak munas nu sik!”
19 And he said unto him—Go and prosper! But, when he had gone from him some distance,
Elisha el fahk, “Fahsr in misla.” Ac Naaman el som. El fahla, ac srakna fototo acn el fahla we, na
20 Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said—Lo! my lord, hath restrained, this Naaman the Syrian, by not taking at his hand that which he brought! By the life of Yahweh, verily, I will runs after him, and accept of him, something.
Gehazi, mwet kulansap lal Elisha, el nunkauk sel sifacna, “Leum se luk inge el lela Naaman elan som ac tia moli nu sel kutena ma! El enenu na elan sruokya kutu ma mwet Syria sac el eis nu sel. Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, nga ac yula tokol ac eisla kutu ma sel ah.”
21 So Gehazi hastened after Naaman. And, when Naaman saw one running after him, he alighted from his chariot to meet him, and said, —Is all well?
Ouinge el yula tokol Naaman. Ke Naaman el liye lah mwet se yume tokol, el srola liki chariot natul in osun nu sel, ac el siyuk, “Mea oasr ma kom elya kac?”
22 And he said, All is well. My lord, hath sent me to say, Lo! just now, have come unto me, two young men out of the hill country of Ephraim, of the sons of the prophets, —give for them, I pray thee, a talent, of silver, and two changes of raiment.
Gehazi el topuk, “Wangin, tuh leum se luk ah supweyume in fahk nu sum lah luo sin mwet palu su muta in eol in acn Ephraim tufahna tuku nu yorol, pa el ke kom in sang tolu tausin ipin silver an, ac luo nuknuk in ayaol wowo an laltal.”
23 And Naaman said, Be content, accept two talents. So he urged him, and bound up two talents of silver in two bags, and two changes of raiment, and laid them upon two of his young men, and they bare them before him.
Naaman el topuk, “Nunak munas, us onkosr tausin ipin silver an.” El kwafe na sel elan eis, ac el kapreni silver inge in nuk luo, wi nuknuk in ayaol wowo luo, ac sang nu sin luo sin mwet kulansap lal, ac supwaltalla meet lukel Gehazi.
24 And, when he came to the hill-tower, he took them from their hand, and put them in charge within, —and let the men go, and they departed.
Ke elos sun eol soko Elisha el muta we, Gehazi el eisla nuk luo ah, usla nu in lohm ah, ac folokunla mwet kulansap luo lal Naaman ah.
25 Now, when, he, came in and stood before his lord, Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, —Thy servant hath been neither hither nor thither.
Ac el folokyak nu in lohm ah, ac Elisha el siyuk sel, “Kom muta ya tuku?” Gehazi el topuk, “Wangin, nga mutana inge.”
26 Then he said unto him—My heart, had not gone with thee, when someone turned again from off his chariot, to meet thee! Is it a time to accept silver, or to accept raiment, or oliveyards, or vineyards, or flocks or herds, or men-servants, or maid-servants?
A Elisha el fahk, “Ku ngunik tia wi kom na ke pacl se mukul sac srola liki chariot natul in osun nu sum ah? Tia pacl in eis mani ac nuknuk, ima in olive ac ima in grape, sheep ac cow, ku mwet kulansap!
27 The leprosy of Naaman, therefore, shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed, to times age-abiding. And he went forth from before him—a leper—like snow.
Inge, mas lal Naaman ac fah tuku nu fom, na kom, ac fwilin tulik nutum nukewa, ac fah maskin nwe tok!” Ke Gehazi el som lukel Elisha, el weak mas sac, ac manol fasrfasrla oana snow.
