2 Kings 5
1 Now Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Aram, was a great and honorable man in his master's view, because by him Yahweh had given victory to Aram. He was also a strong, courageous man, but he was a leper.
И Нееман князь силы Сирийския бе муж велий пред господином своим и дивен лицем, яко им даде Господь спасение Сирии: и муж бе силен крепостию прокажен.
2 The Arameans had gone out raiding in bands and had taken a little girl from the land of Israel. She served Naaman's wife.
И из Сирии изыдоша воини и плениша юнотку малу от земли Израилевы: и бе пред женою Неемановою (служа)
3 The girl said to her mistress, “I wish that my master were with the prophet who is in Samaria! Then he would heal my master of his leprosy.”
и рече госпоже своей: о, дабы господин мой был у пророка Божия, иже в Самарии, той бы очистил его и проказы его.
4 So Naaman went in and told the king what the little girl from the land of Israel had said.
И вниде и возвести господину своему и рече: тако и тако глагола юнотка, яже от земли Израилевы.
5 So the king of Aram said, “Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” Naaman left and took with him ten talents of silver, six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothes.
И рече царь Сирийский ко Нееману: иди, вниди, и послю писание ко царю Израилеву. И пойде, и взя в руце свои десять талант сребра и шесть тысящ златник и десять изменяемых риз.
6 He also took the letter to the king of Israel that said, “Now when this letter is brought to you, you will see that I have sent Naaman my servant to you, so that you may cure him of his leprosy.”
И внесе писание к царю Израилеву глаголя: и ныне егда приидет писание сие к тебе, се, послах к тебе Неемана раба моего, да очистиши его от проказы его.
7 When the king of Israel had read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man wants me to cure a man of his leprosy? It seems he is seeking to start an argument with me.”
И бысть егда прочте писание царь Израилев, раздра ризы своя и рече: еда аз Бог есмь, еже мертвити и животворити, яко сей посла и мне, да очищу мужа от проказы его? Прочее разумейте и видите, яко се ищет вины ко мне.
8 So when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent word to the king saying, “Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me, and he will know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
И бысть егда услыша Елиссеи, яко раздра ризы своя царь Израилев, и посла к царю Израилеву, глаголя: почто раздрал еси ризы твоя? Да приидет ко мне ныне Нееман, и да разумеет, яко есть пророк во Израили.
9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots and stood at the door of Elisha's house.
И прииде Нееман на конех и на колесницех и ста при дверех дому Елиссеева.
10 Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and dip yourself into the Jordan seven times, and your flesh will be restored; you will be clean.”
И посла Елиссей посланника к нему, глаголя: шед измыйся седмижды во Иордане, и возвратится плоть твоя к тебе, и очистишися.
11 But Naaman was angry and went away and said, “Look, I thought he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of Yahweh his God, and wave his hand over the place and heal my leprosy.
И разгневася Нееман, и отиде, и рече: се, убо глаголах, яко изыдет ко мне, и станет, и призовет во имя Бога своего, и возложит руку свою на место, и очистит проказу:
12 Are not Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Can I not bathe in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage.
не благи ли Авана и Фарфар реки Дамасковы паче Иордана и всех вод Израилевых? Не шед ли измыюся в них и очишуся? И уклонися и отиде во гневе.
13 Then Naaman's servants came near and spoke to him, “My father, if the prophet had commanded you do some difficult thing, would you not have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you to simply, 'Dip yourself and be clean?'”
И приближишася отроцы его и реша ему: аще бы велие слово глаголал пророк тебе, не бы ли сотворил еси? А яко рече к тебе: измыйся, и очистишися.
14 Then he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, obeying the instructions of the man of God. His flesh was restored again like the flesh of a little child, and he was healed.
И сниде Нееман, и погрузися во Иордане седмижды, по глаголу Елиссееву: и возвратися плоть его яко плоть отрочате млада, и очистися.
15 Naaman returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came and stood before him. He said, “Look, now I know that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel. So therefore, please take a gift from your servant.”
И возвратися ко Елиссею сам и все ополчение его, и прииде и ста пред ним и рече: се, ныне разумех, яко несть Бога во всей земли, но токмо во Израили: и ныне приими благословение от раба твоего.
16 But Elisha replied, “As Yahweh lives, before whom I stand, I will receive nothing.” Naaman urged Elisha to take a gift, but he refused.
И рече Елиссей: жив Господь, Емуже предстах пред ним, аще прииму. И понуждаше его взяти, и не послуша.
17 So Naaman said, “If not, then I ask you to let there be given to your servant two mule loads of earth, for from now on, your servant will offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to any god but Yahweh.
И рече Нееман: аще ли не (хощеши взяти), то даждь рабу твоему время, супруг мсков, от земли сея червленыя: яко и сотворит отселе раб твой всесожжения и жертвы богом иным, но Господу единому,
18 In this one thing may Yahweh pardon your servant, that is, when my king 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 Yahweh pardon your servant in this matter.”
по глаголу сему и о словеси сем: и очистит Господь раба твоего, егда внидет господин мой в дом Ремманов на поклонение тамо: и той почиет на руку моею, и поклонюся в дому Реммани, внегда кланятися ему в дому Реммани, и очистит Господь раба твоего по словеси сему.
19 Elisha said to him, “Go in peace.” So Naaman left.
И рече Елиссей ко Нееману: иди с миром. И отиде от него на Хаврафа земли.
20 He had traveled only a short distance, when Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God said to himself, “Look, my master has spared this Naaman the Aramean by not receiving from his hands gifts that he brought. As Yahweh lives, I will run after him and receive something from him.”
И рече Гиезий отрочищь Елиссеев: се, пощаде господин мой Неемана Сирянина сего, еже не взяти от руки его, яже принесе: жив Господь, яко имам тещи вслед его, и возму от него нечто.
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. When Naaman saw someone running after him, he jumped down from his chariot to meet him and said, “Is everything alright?”
И тече Гиезий во след Нееманов. И виде его Нееман текуща вслед себе, и возвратися с колесницы на сретение ему и рече: мир ли?
22 Gehazi said, “Everything is alright. My master has sent me, saying, 'See, now there have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothes.'”
И рече Гиезий: мир: господин мой посла мя, глаголя: се, ныне приидоста ко мне два отрочища от горы Ефремли от сынов пророчих: даждь убо има талант сребра и две премены риз.
23 Naaman replied, “I am very happy to give you two talents.” Naaman urged Gehazi and tied two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothes, and laid them on two of his servants, who carried the bags of silver before Gehazi.
И рече Нееман: возми два таланта сребра. И взя два таланта во два мешца и две премены риз, и возложи на два отрочиша своя, и несоста пред ним:
24 When Gehazi came to the hill, he took the bags of silver from their hands and hid them in the house; he sent the men away, and they left.
и приидоша в сумраки, и взя от рук их и сокры во храмине, и отпусти мужы.
25 When Gehazi went in and stood before his master, Elisha said to him, “Where have you come from, Gehazi?” He answered, “Your servant went nowhere.”
И сам вниде и предста господину своему. И рече к нему Елиссей: откуду (пришел еси), Гиезие? И рече Гиезий: не исходил раб твой никаможе.
26 Elisha said to Gehazi, “Was not my spirit with you when the man turned his chariot to meet you? Is this a time to accept money and clothes, olive orchards and vineyards, sheep and oxen, and male servants and female servants?
И рече к нему Елиссей: не ходило ли сердце мое с тобою, и видех, егда возвращашеся муж с колесницы своей во сретение тебе? И ныне взял еси сребро и ризы взял еси, да купиши за них вертограды и маслины и винограды, и овцы и волы, и отроки и отроковицы:
27 So the leprosy of Naaman will be on you and your descendants forever.” So Gehazi went out from his presence, a leper as white as snow.
и проказа Нееманова да прильпнет к тебе и к семени твоему во веки. И изыде от лица его прокажен яко снег.
