< 2 Kings 5 >

1 Naaman, prince of the chyualrye of the kyng of Syrie, was a greet man, and worschipid anentis his lord; for bi hym the Lord yaf helthe to Sirie; sotheli he was a strong man and riche, but leprouse.
亚兰王的元帅乃缦在他主人面前为尊为大,因耶和华曾借他使亚兰人得胜;他又是大能的勇士,只是长了大麻风。
2 Forsothe theues yede out of Sirie, and ledden prisonere fro the lond of Israel a litil damysele, that was in the seruyce of the wijf of Naaman.
先前亚兰人成群地出去,从以色列国掳了一个小女子,这女子就服事乃缦的妻。
3 `Which damysele seide to hir ladi, `Y wolde, that my lord hadde be at the prophete which is in Samarie; sotheli the prophete schulde haue curid hym of the lepre which he hath.
她对主母说:“巴不得我主人去见撒马利亚的先知,必能治好他的大麻风。”
4 Therfor Naaman entride to his lord, and telde to hym, and seide, A damysel of the lond of Israel spak so and so.
乃缦进去,告诉他主人说,以色列国的女子如此如此说。
5 Therfor the kyng of Syrie seide to hym, Go thou, and Y schal sende lettris to the kyng of Israel. And whanne he hadde go forth, and hadde take with hym ten talentis of siluer, and sixe thousynde goldun platis, `ether floreyns, and ten chaungyngis of clothis,
亚兰王说:“你可以去,我也达信于以色列王。”于是乃缦带银子十他连得,金子六千舍客勒,衣裳十套,就去了;
6 he brouyte lettris to the kyng of Israel bi these wordis; Whanne thou hast take this pistle, wite thou, that Y haue sent to thee Naaman, my seruaunt, that thou cure hym of his lepre.
且带信给以色列王,信上说:“我打发臣仆乃缦去见你,你接到这信,就要治好他的大麻风。”
7 And whanne the kyng of Israel hadde red the lettris, he to-rente his clothis, and seide, Whether Y am God, that may sle and quykene, for this kyng sente to me, that Y cure a man of his lepre? Perseyue ye, and se, that he sekith occasiouns ayens me.
以色列王看了信就撕裂衣服,说:“我岂是 神,能使人死使人活呢?这人竟打发人来,叫我治好他的大麻风。你们看一看,这人何以寻隙攻击我呢?”
8 And whanne Elisee, the man of God, hadde herd this, that is, that the kyng of Israel hadde to-rente hise clothis, he sente to the kyng, and seide, Whi to-rentist thou thi clothis? come he to me, and wite he, that a prophete is in Israel.
神人以利沙听见以色列王撕裂衣服,就打发人去见王,说:“你为什么撕了衣服呢?可使那人到我这里来,他就知道以色列中有先知了。”
9 Therfor Naaman cam with horsis and charis, and stood at the dore of the hows of Elisee.
于是,乃缦带着车马到了以利沙的家,站在门前。
10 And Elisee sente to hym a messanger, and seide, Go thou, and be thou waischun seuensithis in Jordan; and thi fleisch shal resseyue helthe, and thou schalt be clensid.
以利沙打发一个使者,对乃缦说:“你去在约旦河中沐浴七回,你的肉就必复原,而得洁净。”
11 Naaman was wrooth, and yede awei, and seide, Y gesside, that he schulde go out to me, and that he schulde stonde, and clepe the name of `the Lord his God, and that he schulde touche with his hond the place of lepre, and schulde cure me.
乃缦却发怒走了,说:“我想他必定出来见我,站着求告耶和华—他 神的名,在患处以上摇手,治好这大麻风。
12 Whether Abana and Pharphar, floodis of Damask, ben not betere than alle the watris of Israel, that Y be waischun in tho, and be clensid?
大马士革的河亚罢拿和法珥法岂不比以色列的一切水更好吗?我在那里沐浴不得洁净吗?”于是气忿忿地转身去了。
13 Therfor whanne he hadde turned hym silf, and yede awei, hauynge indignacioun, hise seruauntis neiyiden to hym, and spaken to hym, Fadir, thouy the prophete hadde seid to thee a greet thing, certis thou owist to do; hou myche more for now he seide to thee, Be thou waischun, and thou schalt be clensid.
他的仆人进前来,对他说:“我父啊,先知若吩咐你做一件大事,你岂不做吗?何况说你去沐浴而得洁净呢?”
14 He yede doun, and waischide hym seuensithis in Jordan, bi the word of the man of God; and his fleisch was restored as the fleisch of a litil child, and he was clensid.
于是乃缦下去,照着神人的话,在约旦河里沐浴七回;他的肉复原,好像小孩子的肉,他就洁净了。
15 And he turnede ayen with al his felouschipe to the man of God, and cam, and stood bifor hym; and seide, Verili Y knowe, that noon other God is in al erthe, no but oneli God of Israel; therfor, Y biseche, that thou take blessyng of thi seruaunt.
乃缦带着一切跟随他的人,回到神人那里,站在他面前,说:“如今我知道,除了以色列之外,普天下没有 神。现在求你收点仆人的礼物。”
16 And he answeride, The Lord lyueth bifor whom Y stonde, for Y schal not take. And whanne he made `strengthe, that is, greet preier, Elisee assentide not outirli.
以利沙说:“我指着所事奉永生的耶和华起誓,我必不受。”乃缦再三地求他,他却不受。
17 Therfor Naaman seide, As thou wolt; but, I biseche, graunte thou to me, thi seruaunt, that Y take of `the lond the birthun of twei burdones; for thi seruaunt schal no more make brent sacrifice, ether slayn sacrifice, to alien goddis, no but to the Lord.
乃缦说:“你若不肯受,请将两骡子驮的土赐给仆人。从今以后,仆人必不再将燔祭或平安祭献与别神,只献给耶和华。
18 Forsothe this thing is oneli, of which thou schalt preie the Lord for thi seruaunt, whanne my lord shal entre into the temple of Remmon, that he worschipe, and while he `schal lene on myn hond, if Y worschipe in the temple of Remmon, while he worschipith in the same place, that the Lord foryyue to thi seruaunt for this thing.
惟有一件事,愿耶和华饶恕你仆人:我主人进临门庙叩拜的时候,我用手搀他在临门庙,我也屈身。我在临门庙屈身的这事,愿耶和华饶恕我。”
19 Which Elisee seide to hym, Go thou in pees. `Therfor he yede fro Elisee in a chosun tyme of the lond.
以利沙对他说:“你可以平平安安地回去!” 乃缦就离开他去了;走了不远,
20 And Giezi, the child of the man of God, seide, My lord sparide this Naaman of Syrie, that he took not of hym that, that he brouyte; the Lord lyueth, for Y schal renne aftir hym, and Y schal take of hym sum thing.
神人以利沙的仆人基哈西心里说:“我主人不愿从这亚兰人乃缦手里受他带来的礼物,我指着永生的耶和华起誓,我必跑去追上他,向他要些。”
21 And Giezi suede aftir the bak of Naaman; and whanne Naaman hadde seyn Giezi rennynge to hym, he skippide doun of the chare in to the metyng of Giezi; and seide, Whether alle thingis ben riytfuli?
于是基哈西追赶乃缦。乃缦看见有人追赶,就急忙下车迎着他,说:“都平安吗?”
22 And he seide, Riytfuli; my lord sente me to thee, and seide, Twey yonge men of the hille of Effraym, of the sones of prophetis, camen now to me; yyue thou to hem a talent of siluer, and double chaungyng clothis.
说:“都平安。我主人打发我来说:‘刚才有两个少年人,是先知门徒,从以法莲山地来见我,请你赐他们一他连得银子,两套衣裳。’”
23 And Naaman seide, It is betere that thou take twei talentis. And Naaman constreynede hym; and Naaman boond twei talentis of siluer in twei sackis, and double clothis, and puttide on his twey children, `that is, seruauntis, whiche also baren bifor Giezi.
乃缦说:“请受二他连得”;再三地请受,便将二他连得银子装在两个口袋里,又将两套衣裳交给两个仆人;他们就在基哈西前头抬着走。
24 And whanne he hadde come thanne in the euentid, he took fro the hond of hem, and leide vp in the hows; and he delyuerede the men, and thei yeden.
到了山冈,基哈西从他们手中接过来,放在屋里,打发他们回去。
25 Forsothe Giezi entride, and stood bifor his lord. And Elise seide, Giezi, fro whennus comest thou? Which answeride, Thi seruaunt yede not to ony place.
基哈西进去,站在他主人面前。以利沙问他说:“基哈西你从哪里来?”回答说:“仆人没有往哪里去。”
26 And Elise seide, Whether myn herte was not in present, whanne the man turnede ayen fro his chare in to the metyng of thee? Now therfor thou hast take siluer, and thou hast take clothis, that thou bie places of olyues, and vyneris, and scheep, and oxis, and seruauntis, and handmaydis;
以利沙对他说:“那人下车转回迎你的时候,我的心岂没有去呢?这岂是受银子、衣裳、买橄榄园、葡萄园、牛羊、仆婢的时候呢?
27 but also the lepre of Naaman schal cleue to thee, and to thi seed withouten ende. And Giezi yede leprouse as snow, `fro hym.
因此,乃缦的大麻风必沾染你和你的后裔,直到永远。”基哈西从以利沙面前退出去,就长了大麻风,像雪那样白。
