2 Ar-ari 5
1 Ita ni Naaman, ti komandante iti armada iti ari ti Aram, ket maysa a maingel ken mararaem a tao iti panagkita ti amona, agsipud ta babaen kenkuana ket inyeg ni Yahweh ti balligi iti Aram. Napigsa ken natured pay isuna a tao, ngem kinetong isuna.
Now Naaman, the commander of the army of the king of Aram, was a great man in his master’s sight and highly regarded, for through him the LORD had given victory to Aram. And he was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.
2 Rimmaut dagiti Arameo a binunggo-bunggoy ket nangiyawidda iti maysa nga ubing a babai manipud ti daga iti Israel. Nagserbi isuna nga adipen ti asawa ni Naaman.
At this time the Arameans had gone out in bands and had taken a young girl from the land of Israel, and she was serving Naaman’s wife.
3 Imbaga ti ubing a babai iti amona a babai, “Tarigagayak nga adda koma ti apok iti ayan ti profeta nga adda idiay Samaria! Ket agasanna ti ketong ti apok.”
She said to her mistress, “If only my master would go to the prophet who is in Samaria, he would cure him of his leprosy.”
4 Isu a simrek ni Naaman ket imbagana iti ari ti imbaga ti ubing a babai maipud iti daga ti Israel.
And Naaman went and told his master what the girl from the land of Israel had said.
5 Isu a kinuna ti ari ti Aram, “Mapankan, ket mangipatulodak ti surat iti ari ti Israel.” Pimmanaw ni Naaman ken nangitugot iti sangapulo a talento ti pirak, innem a ribo a pidaso ti balitok, ken sangapulo a pagsukatan a kawes.
“Go now,” said the king of Aram, “and I will send you with a letter to the king of Israel.” So Naaman departed, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten sets of clothing.
6 Intugotna pay ti surat a para iti ari ti Israel a nagkuna, “Ita, inton maiyeg kenka daytoy a surat, makitamto nga imbaonko kenka ti adipenko a ni Naaman, tapno maagasam koma isuna iti ketongna.”
And the letter that he took to the king of Israel stated: “With this letter I am sending my servant Naaman, so that you may cure him of his leprosy.”
7 Idi nabasa ti ari ti Israel ti surat, rinay-abna ti kawesna ket kinuna, “Siak kadi ti Dios, a pumatay ken agpabiag, ta kayat daytoy a tao nga agasak ti ketong ti maysa a tao? Kasla agbirbirok isuna ti pangrugian ti panakisinnuppiatna kaniak.”
When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and asked, “Am I God, killing and giving life, that this man expects me to cure a leper? Surely you can see that he is seeking a quarrel with me!”
8 Isu nga idi nangngeg ni Eliseo a tao ti Dios a rinay-ab ti ari ti Israel ti kawesna, nangipatulod isuna iti sao iti ari a mangibagbaga, “Apay a rinay-abmo ti kawesmo? Bay-am isuna nga umay kaniak ita, ket maammoannanto nga adda ti maysa a profeta iti Israel.
Now when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent a message to the king: “Why have you torn your clothes? Please let the man come to me, and he will know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
9 Isu a napan ni Naaman agraman kadagiti kabalio ken karwahena ken nagtakder iti ruangan ti balay ni Eliseo.
So Naaman came with his horses and chariots and stood at the door of Elisha’s house.
10 Nangibaon ni Eliseo iti mensahero kenkuana, kiunana, “Mapanka ket bumatokka iti Karayan Jordan iti maminpito a daras, ket mapaimbag ti lasagmo; madalusankanto.”
Then Elisha sent him a messenger, who said, “Go and wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored, and you will be clean.”
11 Ngem nakapungtot ni Naaman ket pimmanaw ken kinunana, “Kitam, ipagarupko a rummuar isuna nga umay kaniak ket tumakder ken awaganna ti nagan ni Yahweh a Diosna, ken iyaplawanna ti imana ket paimbagenna ti ketongko.
But Naaman went away angry, saying, “I thought that he would surely come out, stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the spot to cure my leprosy.
12 Saan kadi a nadaldalus ti Abana ken Farpar, dagiti karayan ti Damascus, ngem kadagiti amin a danum ti Israel? Saanak kadi a mabalin nga agdigos kadagidiay ket madalusanak?” Isu a timmallikod isuna ket pimmanaw a makaunget unay.
Are not the Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not have washed in them and been cleansed?” So he turned and went away in a rage.
13 Ket immasideg dagiti adipen ni Naaman ket nakisarita kenkuana, “Amak, saan aya nga aramidem, no binilinnaka ti profeta a mangaramid iti uray narigat a banag? Saan ketdin a nalaklaka no aramidem ti ibagbagana kenka a 'Bumatokka ket madalusanka?'”
Naaman’s servants, however, approached him and said, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, ‘Wash and be cleansed’?”
14 Napan ngarud isuna ket bimmatok iti naminpito a daras iti Karayan Jordan, a panagtulnog iti imbilin ti tao iti Dios. Simmalun-at manen ti lasagna kas iti lasag ti maysa nga ubing, ket naimbagan isuna.
So Naaman went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was restored and became like that of a little child, and he was clean.
15 Nagsubli ni Naaman iti tao ti Dios, isuna ken dagiti amin a kakaduana, napan ken timmakder iti sangoananna. Kinunana, “Kitaem, ita ammokon nga awan ti Dios iti entero a lubong malaksid iti Dios ti Israel. Isu ngarud a pangngaasim ta awatem ti sagut manipud iti adipenmo.”
Then Naaman and all his attendants went back to the man of God, stood before him, and declared, “Now I know for sure that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel. So please accept a gift from your servant.”
16 Ngem simmungbat ni Eliseo, “Iti nagan ni Yahweh a sibibiag iti agnanayon, a pagserserbiak, saanak nga umawat iti aniaman.” Pinilit ni Naaman ni Eliseo nga awatenna ti sagut, ngem nagkedked isuna.
But Elisha replied, “As surely as the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will not accept it.” And although Naaman urged him to accept it, he refused.
17 Isu a kinuna ni Naaman, “No saan, dawatek ngarud kenka nga ipalubosmo a maikkan daytoy adipenmo iti daga a maikarga iti dua a mulo, ta manipud ita, saanen nga agidaton daytoy adipenmo iti daton a mapuoran wenno sakripisio iti siasinoman a dios malaksid kenni Yahweh.
“If you will not,” said Naaman, “please let me, your servant, be given as much soil as a pair of mules can carry. For your servant will never again make a burnt offering or a sacrifice to any other god but the LORD.
18 Ket maysa pay, mapakawan koma ni Yahweh daytoy adipenmo, a no mapmapan ti arik idiay balay ti Rimmon tapno agdayaw sadiay, ket agsadsadag kaniak ken agrukrukbabak iti balay ti Rimmon, idi nagrukbabak iti balay ti Rimmon, pakawanen koma ni Yahweh daytoy adipenmo iti daytoy a banag.”
Yet may the LORD forgive your servant this one thing: When my master goes into the temple of Rimmon to worship there, and he leans on my arm, and I bow down in the temple of Rimmon, may the LORD forgive your servant in this matter.”
19 Kinuna ni Eliseo, “Mapanka sikakapia.” Isu a pimmanaw ni Naaman.
“Go in peace,” said Elisha. But after Naaman had traveled a short distance,
20 Saan pay a nakaadayo ni Naaman, idi ni Gehasi nga adipen ni Elias a tao ti Dios ket kinunana iti bagina, “Kitaem, pinalubosan ti amok daytoy a Naaman nga Arameo a saanna nga inawat manipud kadagiti imana dagiti sagut nga intugot ni Naaman. Iti nagan ni Yahweh a sibibiag iti agnanayon, kamatek isuna ket dumawatak iti uray ania kenkuana.”
Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Look, my master has spared this Aramean, Naaman, while not accepting what he brought. As surely as the LORD lives, I will run after him and get something from him.”
21 Isu a kinamakam ni Gehasi ni Naaman. Idi nakita ni Naaman nga adda kumamkamat kenkuana, dimsaag manipud iti luganna a karwahe tapno sabtenna isuna ket kinunana, “Adda kadi napasamak?”
So Gehazi pursued Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running toward him, he got down from the chariot to meet him and asked, “Is everything all right?”
22 Kinuna ni Gehasi, “Nasayaat iti amin. Imbaonnak ti amok a mangibaga, 'Kitaem, ita adda immay kaniak a dua a bumarito kadagiti annak dagiti profeta manipud iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim. Pangngaasim ta ikkam ida iti maysa a talento a pirak ken dua a pagsukatan a kawes.
“Everything is all right,” Gehazi replied. “My master has sent me to say, ‘I have just now discovered that two young men from the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two sets of clothing.’”
23 Simmungbat ni Naaman, “Maragsakanak unay a mangted kenka iti dua a talento.” Pinilit ni Naaman ni Gehasi ket inkabilna ti dua a talento a pirak iti dua a supot, karaman ti dua a pagsukatan a kawes, ket intedna dagitoy kadagiti dua nga adipenna, a nangawit kadagiti supot iti sangoanan ni Gehasi.
But Naaman insisted, “Please, take two talents.” And he urged Gehazi to accept them. Then he tied up two talents of silver in two bags along with two sets of clothing and gave them to two of his servants, who carried them ahead of Gehazi.
24 Idi nakadanon ni Gehasi iti turod, innalana dagiti supot a naglaon kadagiti pirak manipud kadagiti imada ken indulinna dagitoy iti uneg ti balay; pinapanawna dagiti lallaki, ket pimmanawda.
When Gehazi came to the hill, he took the gifts from the servants and stored them in the house. Then he dismissed the men, and they departed.
25 Idi simrek ni Gehasi ken nagtakder iti sangoanan ti amona, kinuna ni Eliseo kenkuana, “Sadino ti naggapuam, Gehasi?” Simmungbat ni Gehasi, “Awan ti napanan daytoy adipenmo.”
When Gehazi went in and stood before his master, Elisha asked him, “Gehazi, where have you been?” “Your servant did not go anywhere,” he replied.
26 Kinuna ni Eliseo kenni Gehasi, “Saan kadi nga adda kenka ti espirituk idi imbaw-ing ti lalaki ti karwahena tapno sabtennaka? Daytoy kadi ti tiempo nga umawat iti kuarta ken kadagiti kawes, kaoliboan ken kaubasan, karnero ken baka, lallaki ken babbai nga adipen?
But Elisha questioned him, “Did not my spirit go with you when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to accept money and clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, menservants and maidservants?
27 Isu a ti ketong ni Naaman ket kumpet kenka ken iti amin a kaputotam iti agnanayon.” Isu a pimmanaw ni Gehasi iti sangoanan ni Eliseo, kinetong a kasla kapuraw iti niebe.
Therefore, the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and your descendants forever!” And as Gehazi left his presence, he was leprous—as white as snow.
