2 Kings 5
1 And Naaman, head of the host of the king of Aram, was a great man before his lord, and accepted of face, for by him had Jehovah given salvation to Aram, and the man was mighty in valour — leprous.
Azɔ la Naaman nye Aram fia ƒe aʋakplɔla. Ede ŋgɔ eye bubu nɔ eŋu le eƒe aƒetɔ gbɔ elabena eya dzie Yehowa to ɖu dzi geɖe na Aram. Enye asrafo kalẽtɔ gã aɖe gake enɔ kpodɔ lém.
2 And the Aramaeans have gone out [by] troops, and they take captive out of the land of Israel a little damsel, and she is before the wife of Naaman,
Adzoha aɖewo tso Aram va da adzo le Israelnyigba dzi eye nyɔnuvi sue aɖe le ame siwo wolé la dome. Nyɔnuvi sia zu Naaman srɔ̃ ƒe subɔla.
3 and she saith unto her mistress, 'O that my lord [were] before the prophet who [is] in Samaria; then he doth recover him from his leprosy.'
Azɔ la, nyɔnuvi la gblɔ na eƒe aƒenɔ be, “Ne nye aƒetɔ, ɖe wòakpɔ nyagblɔɖila si le Samaria la, anyo ŋutɔ! Ada gbe le eƒe anyidɔ la ŋu nɛ.”
4 And [one] goeth in and declareth to his lord, saying, 'Thus and thus she hath spoken, the damsel who [is] from the land of Israel.'
Naaman yi eƒe aƒetɔ gbɔ eye wògblɔ nya si nyɔnuvi si tso Israel gblɔ la nɛ.
5 And the king of Aram saith, 'Go thou, enter, and I send a letter unto the king of Israel;' and he goeth and taketh in his hand ten talents of silver, and six thousand [pieces] of gold, and ten changes of garments.
Aram fia ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ele vevie be nàyi; maɖo agbalẽ ɖe Israel fia.” Ale Naaman dze mɔ; etsɔ klosaloga kilogram alafa etɔ̃ blaene ɖe asi kpe ɖe sikaga kilogram blaadre ŋuti kple awudodo ewo.
6 And he bringeth in the letter unto the king of Israel, saying, 'And now, at the coming in of this letter unto thee, lo, I have sent unto thee Naaman my servant, and thou hast recovered him from his leprosy.'
Agbalẽ si woŋlɔ na Israel fia la me nyawoe nye: “Mele agbalẽ sia ɖom ɖe wò to nye dɔla Naaman dzi be nàda gbe le eƒe anyidɔ la ŋu nɛ.”
7 And it cometh to pass, at the king of Israel's reading the letter, that he rendeth his garments, and saith, 'Am I God, to put to death and to keep alive, that this [one] is sending unto me to recover a man from his leprosy? for surely know, I pray you, and see, for he is presenting himself to me.'
Esi Israel fia xlẽ agbalẽa me nyawo vɔ teti ko la, edze eƒe awuwo eye wògblɔ be, “Mawue menyea? Ɖe mate ŋu awu ame agagbɔ agbeea? Nu ka ŋuti ame sia dɔ ame aɖe ɖe gbɔnye be mada gbe le eƒe anyidɔ ŋu? Mikpɔ ale si wòle agbagba dzem be yeagawɔ dzre kplim la ɖa!”
8 And it cometh to pass, at Elisha the man of God's hearing that the king of Israel hath rent his garments, that he sendeth unto the king, saying, 'Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come, I pray thee, unto me, and he doth know that there is a prophet in Israel.'
Ke esi Mawu ƒe ame, Elisa se be Israel fia dze awu le eɖokui ŋuti la, eɖo du ɖee be, “Nu kae te ɖe dziwò ale gbegbe be nèdze wò awuwo? Ɖo Naaman ɖe gbɔnye ekema anya be nyagblɔɖila aɖe le Israel.”
9 And Naaman cometh, with his horses and with his chariot, and standeth at the opening of the house for Elisha;
Ale Naaman kple eƒe sɔwo kple tasiaɖamwo va tɔ ɖe Elisa ƒe aƒe ƒe agbonu.
10 and Elisha sendeth unto him a messenger, saying, 'Go, and thou hast washed seven times in Jordan, and thy flesh doth turn back to thee — and be thou clean.
Elisa ɖo dɔla aɖe ɖa be wòagblɔ na Naaman be, “Yi nàdo ɖi ɖe Yɔdan me zi adre, ekema wò ŋutigbalẽ aɖɔ ɖo eye nàkpɔ dɔyɔyɔ.”
11 And Naaman is wroth, and goeth on, and saith, 'Lo, I said, Unto me he doth certainly come out, and hath stood and called in the name of Jehovah his God, and waved his hand over the place, and recovered the leper.
Ke Naaman trɔ dzo kple dziku hegblɔ be, “Nye ya mesusui be godoo la, ado ɖe ŋutinye, atɔ ɖe gbɔnye ayɔ Yehowa eƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ, alili asi anyiteƒeawo, ayɔ dɔ nye anyidɔ la hafi.
12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? do I not wash in them and I have been clean?' and he turneth and goeth on in fury.
Ɖe Abana kple Farpar, Damasko tɔsisiwo menyo wu tsi siwo katã le Israel oa? Ɖe nyemate ŋu ale tsi le wo me akpɔ dɔyɔyɔ oa?” Ale wòtrɔ dzo kple dziku.
13 And his servants come nigh, and speak unto him, and say, 'My father, a great thing had the prophet spoken unto thee — dost thou not do [it]? and surely, when he hath said unto thee, Wash, and be clean.'
Naaman ƒe dɔlawo yi egbɔ eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Fofonye, nenye ɖe nyagblɔɖila la gblɔ na wò be nàwɔ nu sesẽ aɖe la, màwɔe oa? Kaka wòhenye be wògblɔ na wò be, ‘Yi nàle tsi eye wò ŋuti nakɔ!’”
14 And he goeth down and dippeth in Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh doth turn back as the flesh of a little youth, and is clean.
Ale Naaman yi Yɔdan tɔsisi la me eye wòdo ɖi ɖe tɔsisi la me zi adre abe ale si Mawu ƒe ame la bia tso esi be wòawɔ ene. Eƒe ŋuti zrɔ̃ hekɔ enumake abe ŋutsuvi sue aɖe tɔ ene.
15 And he turneth back unto the man of God, he and all his camp, and cometh in, and standeth before him, and saith, 'Lo, I pray thee, I have known that there is not a God in all the earth except in Israel; and now, take, I pray thee, a blessing from thy servant.'
Tete Naaman kple eƒe dɔlawo katã trɔ yi ɖe Mawu ƒe ame la gbɔ ɖatsi tsitre ɖe eŋkume hegblɔ nɛ be, “Azɔ la menyae be Mawu aɖeke mele xexea katã me o negbe le Israel ko, eya ta meɖe kuku, xɔ nunana siawo le wò dɔla si.”
16 And he saith, 'Jehovah liveth, before whom I have stood — if I take [it];' and he presseth on him to take, and he refuseth.
Ke nyagblɔɖila la ɖo eŋu be, “Meta Yehowa, ame si mesubɔna la ƒe agbe be nyemaxɔ naneke o.” Togbɔ be Naaman ƒoe ɖe enu hã la, egbe mexɔ nunanawo o.
17 And Naaman saith, 'If not — let be given, I pray thee, to thy servant, a couple of mules' burden of earth, for thy servant doth make no more burnt-offering and sacrifice to other gods, but to Jehovah.
Naaman gblɔ nɛ be, “Ne màxɔ wo o la, meɖe kuku, na wò dɔla naka anyi si tedzi eve ate ŋu atsɔ la nam elabena wò dɔla magasa numevɔ kple vɔsa bubuwo na Mawu bubu aɖeke o, negbe Yehowa ko.
18 For this thing Jehovah be propitious to thy servant, in the coming in of my lord into the house of Rimmon to bow himself there, and he was supported by my hand, and I bowed myself [in] the house of Rimmon; for my bowing myself in the house of Rimmon Jehovah be propitious, I pray thee, to thy servant in this thing.'
Ke Yehowa netsɔe ke wò dɔla ɖe esia ɖeka ko ta be ne nye aƒetɔ yi Rimon ƒe gbedoxɔ me be wòade ta agu eye wòziɔ ɖe nye abɔ ŋuti eye nye hã mede ta agu, le Rimon ƒe gbedoxɔa me la, Yehowa netsɔe ke wò dɔla ɖe esia ta.”
19 And he saith to him, 'Go in peace.' And he goeth from him a kibrath of land,
Elisa gblɔ nɛ be, “Heyi le ŋutifafa me.” Ale Naaman trɔ ɖo ta wo de.
20 And Gehazi, servant of Elisha the man of God, saith, 'Lo, my lord hath spared Naaman this Aramaean, not to receive from his hand that which he brought; Jehovah liveth; surely if I have run after him, then I have taken from him something.'
Ke Gehazi, Elisa ƒe subɔla Mawu ƒe ame, gblɔ na eɖokui be, “Mele be nye aƒetɔ nagbe nunanawo xɔxɔ eye wòaɖe asi le Naaman, Aramea ŋutsu sia ŋu wòadzo o. Mati eyome eye maxɔ nane le esi.”
21 And Gehazi pursueth after Naaman, and Naaman seeth one running after him, and alighteth from off the chariot to meet him, and saith, 'Is there peace?'
Ale Gehazi ɖe abla kplɔ Naaman ɖo. Esi Naaman kpɔe wònɔ du dzi gbɔna la, eɖi le eƒe tasiaɖam me be yeado goe. Ebia be, “Nu sia nu le nyuiea?”
22 And he saith, 'Peace; my lord hath sent me, saying, Lo, now, this, come unto me have two young men from the hill-country of Ephraim, of the sons of the prophets; give, I pray thee, to them, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.'
Gehazi ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ɛ̃, nu sia nu le nyuie gake nye aƒetɔe dɔm be magblɔ na wò be, ‘Ɖekakpui eve tso nyagblɔɖilawo ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dome, tso Efraim to dzi va ɖo gbɔnye fifi laa eya ta, meɖe kuku, tsɔ klosaloga kilogram blaetɔ̃-vɔ-ene kple awudodo ha eve na wo.’”
23 And Naaman saith, 'Be pleased, take two talents;' and he urgeth on him, and bindeth two talents of silver in two purses, and two changes of garments, and giveth unto two of his young men, and they bear before him;
Naaman ɖo eŋu nɛ be, ele vevie eya ta xɔ klosaloga kilogram blaade-vɔ-enyi. Eƒoe ɖe Gehazi nu be wòaxɔe. Tete wòbla klosaloga la ɖe kotoku eve me nɛ eye wòtsɔ awudodo ha eve kpe ɖe eŋuti nɛ. Etsɔ wo de eƒe dɔla eve si eye wotsɔ wo dze Gehazi ŋgɔe.
24 and he cometh in unto the high place, and taketh out of their hand, and layeth up in the house, and sendeth away the men, and they go.
Ke esi wogogo to si dzi Elisa nɔ la, Gehazi xɔ nuawo le subɔla eveawo si eye wòna wotrɔ dzo. Etsɔ ga la ɣla ɖe eƒe aƒe me.
25 And he hath come in, and doth stand by his lord, and Elisha saith unto him, 'Whence — Gehazi?' and he saith, 'Thy servant went not hither or thither.'
Esi wòyi eƒe aƒetɔ gbɔ la, Elisa biae be, “Gehazi, afi ka nètso?” Gehazi ɖo eŋu be, “Wò dɔla medo yi afi aɖeke o.”
26 And he saith unto him, 'My heart went not when the man turned from off his chariot to meet thee; is it a time to take silver, and to take garments, and olives, and vines, and flock, and herd, and men-servants, and maid-servants?
Elisa biae be, “Mènya be menɔ afi ma le gbɔgbɔ me hafi Naaman ɖi le eƒe tasiaɖam me hekpe wò oa? Ɣeyiɣi sia mee woaxɔ ga, awu, amitigblewo, waingblewo, alẽwo, nyitsuwo kple subɔlawoa?
27 yea, the leprosy of Naaman doth cleave to thee, and to thy seed, — to the age;' and he goeth out from before him — leprous as snow.
Esi nèwɔ esia ta la, Naaman ƒe anyidɔ la ava wò kple viwòwo kple wo tɔgbuiyɔviwo dzi tegbetegbe.” Anyi ƒo ɖe Gehazi ŋu enumake, eŋuti katã fu kpii eye wòzu anyidzela hafi do go le xɔa me.
