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).
Un Naēmans, Sīrijas ķēniņa kara lielskungs, bija augsts vīrs priekš sava kunga un no lielas slavas; jo caur viņu Tas Kungs Sīriešiem bija devis laimi, un viņš bija varens vīrs, bet spitālīgs.
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.
Un no Sīrijas sirotāji bija izgājuši un aizveduši no Israēla zemes mazu meiteni, kas bija Naēmana sievas kalpone.
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.”
Un tā sacīja uz savu valdnieci: kaut mans kungs būtu pie tā pravieša, kas Samarijā, tas viņu gan atsvabinātu no spitālības.
4 [Naaman’s wife told her husband] what the girl from Israel had said, [and] Naaman told [that] to the king.
Un (Naēmans) gāja un to teica savam kungam sacīdams: tā un tā, tā meitene runājusi, kas ir no Israēla zemes.
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].
Tad Sīrijas ķēniņš sacīja: ej, es sūtīšu grāmatu Israēla ķēniņam. Un tas gāja un ņēma līdz desmit talentus sudraba un seštūkstoš sēķeļus zelta un desmit svētku drēbes.
Un viņš nesa to grāmatu Israēla ķēniņam, kur bija rakstīts: kad šī grāmata pie tevis nāk, redzi, tad es savu kalpu Naēmanu pie tevis esmu sūtījis, lai tu viņu atsvabini no viņa spitālības.
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!”
Kad nu Israēla ķēniņš šo grāmatu bija lasījis, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes un sacīja: vai tad es esmu Dievs, ka varu nokaut un atkal dzīvu darīt, ka šis pie manis sūta vīru, lai to atsvabinu no viņa spitālības? Ņemiet vērā un redziet, ka tas iemeslus pie manis meklē.
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].”
Bet kad Eliša, tas Dieva vīrs, to dzirdēja, ka Israēla ķēniņš savas drēbes bija saplēsis, tad viņš sūtīja pie ķēniņa un lika sacīt: kāpēc tu savas drēbes esi saplēsis? Lai jel viņš nāk pie manis un atzīst, pravieti esam iekš Israēla.
9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots to Elisha’s house and waited outside the door.
Un Naēmans ar saviem zirgiem un ar saviem ratiem nāca un apstājās priekš Elišas nama durvīm.
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.”
Un Eliša sūtīja vēstnesi pie tā un lika sacīt: ej un mazgājies septiņas reizes Jardānē, tad tava miesa atkal būs vesela, un tu tapsi šķīsts.
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!
Bet Naēmans apskaitās un aizgāja un sacīja: redzi, es domāju, viņš taču nāks pie manis ārā un stāvēs un piesauks Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdu un ar savu roku braucīs pār to vietu un atņems to spitālību.
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.
Vai Amana un Farfara, tās upes pie Damaskus, nav labākas nekā visi Israēla ūdeņi, vai es tur nevaru mazgāties, lai topu šķīsts? Un viņš griezās atpakaļ un aizgāja dusmās.
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]
Tad viņa kalpi piegāja un ar to runāja un sacīja: mans tēvs, kad tas pravietis tev būtu teicis kādu lielu lietu, vai tu to nedarītu? Kā nu ne, kad viņš tev sacījis: mazgājies, tad tu tapsi šķīsts.
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.
Tad viņš nokāpa un mazgājās Jardānē septiņas reizes pēc Tā Dieva vīra vārda, un viņa miesa palika atkal vesela, kā maza bērna miesa, un viņš tapa šķīsts.
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]!”
Tad viņš griezās atpakaļ pie Tā Dieva vīra ar visu savu pulku un nāca un apstājās priekš tā un sacīja: redzi, nu es zinu, ka cita Dieva nav pa visu pasauli kā vien iekš Israēla. Un nu ņem lūdzams kādu svētību no sava kalpa.
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.
Bet tas sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, priekš ka es stāvu, es to neņemšu. Un viņš tam uzstājās, lai ņemot, bet tas liedzās.
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.
Tad Naēmans sacīja: Ja ne, tad ļauj jel dot savam kalpam divu zirgēzeļu nastas zemes. Jo tavs kalps svešiem dieviem vairs nenesīs ne dedzināmus upurus ne kaujamus upurus, kā vien Tam Kungam.
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.”
Šinī lietā lai Tas Kungs tavam kalpam piedod, kad mans kungs ies Rimona namā tur pielūgt un viņš atspiedīsies uz manu roku, un es nometīšos Rimona namā, tad lai Tas Kungs tavam kalpam piedod šo lietu, kad es tā nometos Rimona namā.
19 Elisha replied, “Go home, and do not worry about that.” So Naaman [and his servants] started to travel home.
Un viņš uz to sacīja: ej ar mieru.
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.”
Kad nu viņš kādu ceļa gabalu no tā bija aizgājis, tad Gehazis, Elišas, Tā Dieva vīra, puisis, domāja: redzi, mans kungs šo Sīrieti Naēmanu ir saudzējis un no viņa rokas neko nav ņēmis no tā, ko viņš atnesis; tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, es tam skriešu pakaļ un ņemšu ko no viņa.
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?”
Tā Gehazis skrēja Naēmanam pakaļ, un kad Naēmans redzēja, sev pakaļ skrienam, tad viņš nokāpa no saviem ratiem viņam pretī un sacīja: vai viss labi?
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.”
Un tas sacīja: labi. Mans kungs mani sūtījis un liek sacīt: redzi, tagad divi puiši no praviešu bērniem pie manis atnākuši no Efraīma kalniem, dod jel viņiem talentu sudraba un divas svētku drēbes.
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.
Un Naēmans sacīja: ņem lūdzams divus talentus. Un tas tam uzstājās un iesēja divus talentus sudraba divos makos un divas svētku drēbes, un tos deva diviem no saviem puišiem, kas tos viņa priekšā nonesa.
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.
Kad nu viņš nāca pie pakalnes, tad viņš to paņēma no viņu rokām un to nolika namā un tos vīrus atlaida, ka tie aizgāja.
25 When he went to Elisha, Elisha asked him, “Where did you go, Gehazi?” Gehazi replied, “I did not go anywhere.”
Bet viņš nāca un tur stāvēja sava kunga priekšā. Un Eliša uz to sacīja: kur tu biji, Gehazi? Un tas sacīja: tavs kalps ne šur ne tur nav bijis.
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!
Bet viņš uz to sacīja: vai mana sirds tur līdzi nestaigāja, kad tas vīrs griezās atpakaļ no saviem ratiem tev pretī? Vai tas bija laiks, ņemt sudrabu un drēbes un eļļas kokus un vīna dārzus un avis un vēršus un kalpus un kalpones?
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!
Tāpēc Naēmana spitālība tev pielips un tavam dzimumam mūžam. Tad tas no viņa aizgāja spitālīgs kā sniegs.
