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).
O NAAMANA ka luna o ka poe kauwa o ke alii o Suria, he kanaka koikoi ia imua o kona haku, a he hanohano o kona maka; no ka mea, ma o na la, ua hoolanakila mai o Iehova i ko Suria; he kanaka koa nui no hoi ia, a ua lepera.
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.
A ua hele aku ka poe koa hao wale, no ko Suria, a ua lawe pio mai lakou i kekahi kaikamahine opiopio mai ka aina o ka Iseraela mai; a ua lawelawe ia na ka wahine a Naamana.
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.”
I aku la ia i kona haku wahine, Ina o kuu haku ma ke alo o ke kaula ma Samaria, ina ua hoola mai kela ia ia i kona lepera.
4 [Naaman’s wife told her husband] what the girl from Israel had said, [and] Naaman told [that] to the king.
A hele aku kekahi, a hai aku la i kona haku, i aku la, Penei a penei ka olelo ana a ke kaikamahine no ka aina o ka Iseraela.
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].
I mai la ke alii o Suria, O hele, o hele, a e hoouna aku au i palapala na ke alii o ka Iseraela. A hele aku la ia, a lawe aku la ia ma kona lima i umi talena kala, a me na apana gula eono tausani, a me na lole aahu he umi.
A lawe aku la ia i ka palapala i ko alii o ka Iseraela, i aku la, Ano, i ka hiki ana'ku o keia palapala ia oe, aia hoi, ua hoouna aku au i ou la ia Naamana i kuu kauwa, i hoola mai ai oe ia ia i kona lepera.
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!”
A pau ka heluhelu ana a ke alii o ka Iseraela i ka palapala, haehae iho la ia i kona aahu, i aku la, He Akua anei wau e pepehi aku a e hoola, i hoouna mai ai keia kanaka io'u nei e hoola i ke kanaka i kona lepera? no ia mea, ke noi aku nei au, e noonoo, a ike, ke imi mai nei paha i mea no'u e hewa'i.
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].”
A i ka manawa i lohe ai o Elisai ke kanaka o ke Akua, ua haehae ke alii i kona aahu, hoouna aku la ia i ke alii, i aku la, No ke aha la oe i haehae ai i kou aahu? e hele mai ia ano i o'u nei, a e ike auanei ia, he kaula no iloko o ka Iseraela.
9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots to Elisha’s house and waited outside the door.
A hele mai o Naamana me kona mau lio, a me kona halekaa, a ku ma ka puka o ka hale o Elisai.
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.”
Hoouna aku la o Elisai i elele io na la, i aku la, E hele oe e auau iloko o Ioredane, ehiku auau ana, a e hoi hou mai no kou io ia oe, a e maemae oe.
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!
Huhu iho la o Naamana, a hele aku la, i iho la, Aia hoi, ua i iho au ia'u iho, E hele io mai auanei ia iwaho, a e ku, a e kahea aku i ka inoa o Iehova o kona Akua, a hapai i kona lima maluna o ka wahi, a e hoola i ka lepera.
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.
Aole anei e oi aku ka pono o Abana, a me Parepara, na muliwai o Damaseko, mamua o ko na wai a pau o ka Iseraela? aole anei e pono ia'u ke holoi iloko o ia mau mea, a maemae? A huli ae la ia a hele aku la me ka huhu.
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]
Hele mai kana poe kauwa a kokoke, olelo aku la ia ia, i aku la, E kuu makua, ina i olelo mai ke kaula ia oe i kekahi mea nui, aole anei oe i hana? oiaio hoi, i kana i ana mai ia oe, E auau oe, a e maemae?
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.
Alaila hele aku la ia ilalo, a lu iho la iloko o Ioredane, ehiku lu ana, e like me ka olelo a ke kanaka o ke Akua; a hoi hou mai kona io e like me ka io o ke keiki uuku, a ua maemae ia.
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]!”
A hoi hou aku la ia i ke kanaka o ke Akua, oia a me kona poe a pau, a hiki aku la, a ku imua ona; i aku la, Aia hoi, ano ua ike au, aole he Akua ma ka honua a pau, maloko o ka Iseraela wale no; ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e lawe oe i ka makana a kau kauwa.
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.
I mai la ia, Ma ke ola o Iehova, imua ona a'u e ku nei, aole au e lawe. Koi aku la keia ia ia; aka, hoole mai la ia.
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.
I aku la o Naamana, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, aole anei e haawiia mai i kau kauwa ka lepo e kaumaha ai na hoki elua ke hali? no ka mea, ma keia hope aku aole kau kauwa e kaumaha aku i ka mohaikuni, a me ka alana i na akua e, aka, ia Iehova wale no.
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.”
E kala mai o Iehova i keia mea i kau kauwa, i ka hele ana o kuu haku iloko o ka hale o Rimona e hoomana malaila, a e hilinai ia maluna o kuu lima, a e hoomana au ma ka hale o Rimona; i kuu hoomana ana ma ka hale o Rimona, e kala mai o Iehova i keia mea i kau kauwa.
19 Elisha replied, “Go home, and do not worry about that.” So Naaman [and his servants] started to travel home.
I mai la keia ia ia E hele oe me ke aloha. A hele ia mai ona aku la, aole loihi.
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.”
I iho la o Gehazi ke kauwa a Elisai ke kanaka no ke Akua, Aia hoi, ua hoole kuu haku ia Naamana i keia kanaka no Suria, aole i lawe mai kona lima mai i ka mea ana i lawe mai ai: aka, ma ke ola o Iehova e holo no au mahope ona, a e lawe i kekahi mea mai ona mai la.
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?”
A hahai aku la o Gehazi mahope o Naamana; a ike ae la o Naamana ia ia e holo mai ana mahope ona, iho ilalo ia mai ka halekaa mai e halawai me ia, i mai la, Ua pono anei?
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.”
I aku la ia, Ua pono. Ua hoouna mai kuu haku ia'u, i mai la, Aia hoi, i keia manawa, ua hiki mai ia'u nei elua kanaka ui mai ka mauna o Eperaima mai, he mau haumana a ka poe kaula; ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e haawi mai oe no laua i hookahi talena kala, a i elua lole aahu.
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.
I mai la o Naamana, E oluolu mai oe i ka lawe i na talena elua. Koi mai la oia ia ia, a hoopaa iho la ia i na talena elua iloko o na aa elua, a me na lole aahu elua, a haawi aku la i na kauwa ana elua; a lawe aku la laua imua ona.
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.
A hiki aku la ma Opela, lawe ae la oia ia mau mea, mai ko laua lima mai, a waiho iho la iloko o ka hale; a kuu aku la i na kanaka, a hoi aku la laua.
25 When he went to Elisha, Elisha asked him, “Where did you go, Gehazi?” Gehazi replied, “I did not go anywhere.”
Komo aku la ia maloko, a ku imua o kona haku; ninau mai la o Elisai ia ia, Mai hea mai oe, e Gehazi? I aku la ia, Aole i hele kau kauwa io, a ia nei.
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!
I mai la kela ia ia, Aole anei i hele kuu naau, i ka manawa i huli ae ke kanaka mai kona halekaa mai e halawai me oe? He manawa anei keia e lawe i ke kala, a e lawe i na aahu, me na oliva, a me na pawaina, a me na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na kauwakane a me na kauwawahine?
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!
Nolaila e pili mau loa mai ko Naamana lepera ia oe, a me kou hua. A hele ia mai kona alo aku me ka mai lepera e like me ka hau.
