2 Kings 5
1 [A man named] Naaman was the commander of the army of Syria. Yahweh had enabled him to win many victories/battles. He was a great warrior, and as a result the king of Syria greatly respected him. But he had (leprosy/a dreaded skin disease).
Syria lengpa hin asepai lamkaipa Naaman hi ajabol lheh jingin ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin amahi amang chan galjona thupi tahtah ana pejin ahi. Ahinla Naaman hi mihang galsatje themtah ana hivang in amahi miphah anahin ahi.
2 [Some time previously, ] groups of soldiers/marauders from Syria had raided/attacked the land of Israel, and they had captured a young girl [and taken her to Syria]. She became a servant for Naaman’s wife.
Amahin agalsatna a Israel gamhi ana delkhum’in galhing tamtah ahin mat lah ahin nungah chapang khat ana pang khan ahileh ajinnu jen ding in anapansah in ahi.
3 One day, that girl said to her, “I wish that (my master/your husband) would go to see the prophet in Samaria. That prophet would heal your husband from his leprosy.”
Nikhat hi hiche nungahnu hin apinu kom’a, “Kapupahi Samaria um themgaopa khu gaki mupi leh aman aphah hi aboldampeh tei ding ahi,” ati.
4 [Naaman’s wife told her husband] what the girl from Israel had said, [and] Naaman told [that] to the king.
Hiche Israel a kona nungah chapangnu thusei chu Naaman hin lengpa kom’ah aga lhut tan ahi.
5 The king said to him, “Okay, go [and see the prophet]. I will [write] a letter for you to take to the king of Israel, [saying that I sent you].” The king wrote in the letter, “I am sending this letter with [my army commander] Naaman, who serves me [faithfully]. I want you to heal him of his disease.” So Naaman, [assuming/thinking that the king of Israel was the prophet, took the letter and] 750 pounds of silver, 150 pounds of gold, and ten sets of clothing, to give to the king of Israel, [and he went to Samaria, taking along several servants].
Syria lengpan, “Chenlang themgaopa chu ga kimupitan kenjong Israel lengpa kom’ah nang chung chang ngah lekha thot nange,” ati. Hichun Naaman akipatdohin kipa thilpeh dingin dangka pound jasagi le som nga, sana pound jakhat le som nga chuleh pon hoitah tah jatsom akipoh in ahi.
Israel lengpa dinga alekhajih chun hitin aseijin ahi, “Hiche lekhapum hin kalhachapa Naaman hi kahinsolle ahitheileh aphahna hi hinboldam peh in,” ati.
7 [When he arrived in Samaria, he gave the letter to the king] of Israel. The king read the letter. Then, being very dismayed, the king tore his clothes and said, “I am not God [RHQ]! I am not able to enable people to live or to die [RHQ]! Why does [the king] who wrote this letter request me to cure this man of his leprosy? I think that he is just wanting to start a fight with me!”
Hiche lekhathot hi Israel lengpan asimdoh phat chun avon abottel jingin, hitin aseitan ahi, “Hichepa hin kakom’a miphah khat boldam dinga ahinsol hi kei Pathen kahi beh a, ken mihem kahinsah a kathisah theibeh ding ham? Amahin kisat pidinga eichouna ahibouve,” ati tai.
8 But the prophet Elisha heard that the king of Israel had torn his robe [and said that]. So he sent a message to the king, saying, “Why are you upset/frustrated [RHQ]? Send Naaman to me, and he will find out that [because] I am a true prophet [here] in Israel, [I can help/heal him].”
Ahinlah Pathen mipa Elisha chun Israel lengpan avon abotse jinge ti ajah phat chun hitin thu athot tan ahi, “Ibola lung hang’a nahim? Hiche Naaman chu keikom’ah hinsoltan chutileh aman Israelte lah ahin themgao dihtah chu aume ti henante,” ati.
9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots to Elisha’s house and waited outside the door.
Hichun Naaman chu asakol tetoh akangtalai toh Elisha kotbullah angahtauve.
10 But Elisha [did not come to the door. Instead, he] sent a messenger to Naaman, to tell him, “Go to the Jordan [River] and wash yourself seven times in the river. Then your skin will be restored/healed, and you will no longer have leprosy.”
Ahinlah Elisha’n amakom’a chun thu agah thot’in, “Chenlang Jordan vadunga khun sagi vei gaki delut lechun navunchu hung kiledohin tin chuleh naphahna jong damdoh tan nate,” atin ahi.
11 But Naaman became very angry. He said, “I thought that surely he would wave his hand over the leprosy, and pray to Yahweh his god, and heal me!
Ahinlah Naaman chu alunghang in, akihai mangin hitin aseije, “Keima geldannin ama hung potdoh intin, eiki mupin tin, kaphahna chungah hin akhut hin peilen tin, Pakai a Pathen min hinpan intin eidamsah ding ham kati ahi,” ati.
12 Surely the Abana River and the Pharpar River in Damascus [in my own country of Syria] are [RHQ] better than any of the rivers in Israel! Why can I not wash in those rivers and be healed?” [RHQ] So he turned and walked away with great anger/disgust.
Hiche Israel te vadung ho jouse sanga hi Damascus ahung longlut Abana le Pharpar vadung teni hi phajo lou ding ong? Hichea chu kaki delut leh kadamjing louding ong?” atin Naaman chu akihei mangin lunghang tah’in achemang jengtan ahi.
13 But his servants came to him, and [one of them] said, “Sir, if that prophet had told you to do something difficult, you would certainly [RHQ] have done it. So you should certainly do what he says and wash [in the Jordan River] to be healed!” [RHQ]
Ahinlah anoija asepaite hochun hetthem sah tei agouvin hitin aseijun, “Hepu themgaopa hin, thil hahsa khat tong dinga nasol leh ibola nabolda dingham? Aman chenlang gakidelut in chutileh nadamding ahi atichu naboljing leh iti ham! atiuvin ahi.
14 So Naaman went down to the Jordan [River] and washed himself seven times, as (the prophet/Elisha) told him to do. Then his skin was restored/healed, and it became healthy/smooth, like the skin of a young child.
Hichun Naaman chu Jordan vadunga agachesuh in themgaopan aseipeh bang bang chun sagi vei aga kidelut in ahileh ahung damdoh in avou jong chapang voutoh abang jing tan ahi.
15 Then Naaman and those who were with him went back to talk to Elisha. They stood in front of him, and Naaman said, “Now I know that there are no real gods anywhere else in the world, but there is a God here in Israel! So now please accept these gifts that I [have brought to you]!”
Hijou chun Naaman le aloi hocheng chu Pathen mipa kom’a dingin ahungkile tauvin ahi. Amaho ama sanga adingun Naaman in hitin aseije, “Israel gamtilou vannoi leiset gamdanga hin Pathen aumpoi ti kahe chentai, hijeh chun nasohpa a konin kipa thilpeh hi nei sanpehtan,” ati.
16 But Elisha replied, “Just as certainly as Yahweh, the one whom I serve, lives, I will not accept any gifts.” Naaman kept urging him [to accept the gifts], but Elisha kept refusing.
Ahin Elisha’n adonbut in, “Keiman kahoujing Pakai minna kasei ahi, keiman thilpeh imacha kilah ponge,” ati. Naaman in kilahsahtei agot vang'in Elisha anom pon ahi.
17 Then Naaman said, “Okay, but [I have one request. This dirt here in Israel is holy, so] please allow me to take some dirt from this place and put it [in sacks] on two mules. Then I will take it back home with me [and make an altar on this dirt]. From now on, I will offer sacrifices to Yahweh [on that altar]. I will not offer sacrifices to any other god.
Hichun Naamanin, “Aphai ahileh sakol pot-ni poh khopset hiche leiset hi ka inlanga kipoh ingting tuapat’in Pakai kom tilouvin semthu Pathen dang kom’ah kilhaina gantha bol taponge,” ati.
18 However, when my master, [the king, ] goes into the temple of the god Rimmon to worship him/it there, and he is leaning on my arm, I hope/desire that Yahweh will forgive me because I will have to bow down, too.”
“Ahinla hiche thilkhat chunga vang hin Pakaiyin eingaidam hen. Hiche kapu lengpa hi Rimmon munna, milimdoi houva ache tengleh keima banjanga kingaiji ahin het banga keimajing jong kabokhup teng Pakaiyin nasohpa hi hiche thudolla hin eingaidam hen,” ati.
19 Elisha replied, “Go home, and do not worry about that.” So Naaman [and his servants] started to travel home.
Hichun Elisha’n ajah a “Lungmongin chetan” atin, Naaman in jong ainlang ajontai.
20 But then Elisha’s servant Gehazi said to himself, “It is not good that my master allowed this Syrian man to leave like this. He should have accepted his gifts. So just as certainly as Yahweh lives, I will go and catch up with Naaman and get something from him.”
Ahinlah Pathen mipa Elisha sohpa Gehazi hi amale ama akihouvin, “Kapupan Syria mipa thilpeh khatcha lalouva asoldoh jing hi adihpoi, hingjing Pathen minna kasei ahi keiman del in kating themkhat beh kalah ding ahi,” ati.
21 So Gehazi hurried to catch up with Naaman. When Naaman saw Gehazi running toward him, he [stopped] the chariot [in which he was riding, ] jumped out, and went to see what Gehazi wanted. He asked him, “Is everything all right?”
Hiti chun Gehazi hin Naaman anung deltan ahi. Naaman in Gehazi in ahin nungdel chu amu phat in, asakol kangtalaija konchun ahung kumlhan, “Imajouse pha pha a hinam?” atileh,
22 Gehazi replied, “Yes, but two young prophets from the hilly area where the descendants of Ephraim live have just arrived. Elisha has sent me to tell you that he would like 75 pounds of silver and two sets of clothing to give to them.”
Gehazi in “Aphanai, Ephraim gam’ah konin themgao gollhang ni tutah chun ahung lhonnin ahileh kapupan nakom’a eihinsol ahi. Aman dangka pound som sagi le nga leh pon hoi jatni hi amani peh dingin angaichan hijeh a chu eihinsol ahi,” ati.
23 Naaman replied, “Certainly! You can have 150 pounds of silver!” He urged Gehazi to take it. He also gave him two sets of clothing. He tied up the silver in two bags and gave them to two of his servants to carry back to Elisha.
Naaman in jong, “Dangka nasei jatni chu kilah in” atin, ponhoi jong jatni apen sumchu sakhaoni in achun in asohte mini achoisah in ahi.
24 But when they arrived at the hill [where Elisha lived], Gehazi took the silver and the clothes from Naaman’s servants and sent the servants back to Naaman. Then he took those things into his house and hid them.
Khopi chu alhun phat’un Gehazin soh tenia kon chun thilchu alaan amani alesoltan ahi. Hijouchun amachan thil ho chu insunga asel tan ahi.
25 When he went to Elisha, Elisha asked him, “Where did you go, Gehazi?” Gehazi replied, “I did not go anywhere.”
Ama a Pakaipa koma agalut chun Elisha’n, “Gehazi hoiya nacheham?” ati. Aman “Hoikoma kachepoi” ati.
26 Elisha asked him, [“Do you not realize that] my spirit was there when Naaman got out of his chariot to talk with you? This is certainly not [RHQ] the time to accept gifts of money and clothes and olive groves and vineyards and sheep and oxen and servants!
Ahinlah Elisha’n, “Naaman asakol kangtalaija kona ahung kumlhah a nakimuto lhonna chu keima lhagaova hiche kom’a chu kaum nahet louham? Hiche phat chu sumle pon kilah phat hija, Olive thingbohle lengpilei kilahphat hija, kelngoile bongchalte kisan phat, soh pasal le soh numei tampi kisanphat mong hi nam?” ati.
27 Because you have done this, you and your children and all your descendants, forever, will have leprosy just like Naaman had!” And when Gehazi left the room, he was a leper! His skin was as white as snow!
Hitobanga nachonjeh hin Naaman phahna hi nang le nason napah ho chunga atonsot geijin chuta hen ati. Gehazi chu indan sunga kona agah potdoh leh apum changin aphahin avunjong buhbang bangin abang let lutjing tan ahi.
