Otra Ķēniņu 5
1 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.
Naaman, the king of Aram's army commander was considered a great man by his master and highly respected, for through him the Lord had made the Arameans victorious. He was a mighty warrior, but he was a leper.
2 Un no Sīrijas sirotāji bija izgājuši un aizveduši no Israēla zemes mazu meiteni, kas bija Naēmana sievas kalpone.
Some Arameans had gone on a raid and had captured a young girl from the land of Israel. She had been made a servant to Naaman's wife.
3 Un tā sacīja uz savu valdnieci: kaut mans kungs būtu pie tā pravieša, kas Samarijā, tas viņu gan atsvabinātu no spitālības.
She told her mistress, “If only my master would go and see the prophet who lives in Samaria. I'm sure he could cure him of his leprosy.”
4 Un (Naēmans) gāja un to teica savam kungam sacīdams: tā un tā, tā meitene runājusi, kas ir no Israēla zemes.
Naaman went to his master and explained what the Israelite girl had said.
5 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.
“You can go,” said the king of Aram, “and I will send a letter with you to the king of Israel.” So Naaman left. He took with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten sets of clothing.
6 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.
The letter he took to the king of Israel read: “This letter accompanies my servant Naaman, sent to you so you can heal him of his leprosy.”
7 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.
When the king of Israel read the letter, he ripped his clothes in panic and said, “Does this man think I'm God, having power over life and death, sending me a leper to heal? Obviously he's just trying to invent an excuse to attack me, as anyone can see!”
8 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.
But when Elisha, the man of God, heard that the king of Israel had ripped his clothes in panic, he sent a message to the king, saying: “What did you rip your clothes for? Please send the man to me, so he will be convinced there is a prophet in Israel.”
9 Un Naēmans ar saviem zirgiem un ar saviem ratiem nāca un apstājās priekš Elišas nama durvīm.
So Naaman arrived with his horses and chariots and stood waiting at the door of Elisha's house.
10 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.
Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash yourself seven times in the Jordan. Then your body will be healed, and you will be clean.”
11 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.
But Naaman got angry and left, saying, “I expected he would at least come out, stand there and invoke the name of the Lord his God, and wave his hand over where my leprosy is and heal it.
12 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.
Aren't the rivers of Damascus, Abanah and Pharpar, better than any of these streams of Israel? Couldn't I have washed in them and been healed?” So he turned around and went off in a rage.
13 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.
But Naaman's officials went to him and said, “Sir, if the prophet had told you that you had to do something extraordinary, wouldn't you have done it? How much easier is it to do what he says, ‘Wash and you'll be healed’?”
14 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.
So Naaman went down and plunged himself underwater in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him. His body was healed, his skin became like a baby's, and he was clean.
15 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.
Then Naaman and his whole entourage went back to the man of God, stood before him, and Naaman announced, “Now I'm convinced that there is no God in all the world except in Israel. Please accept a gift from me, your servant.”
16 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.
But Elisha replied, “As the Lord lives, the one I serve, I will not accept anything.” Even though Naaman tried to persuade him to take the gift, he refused.
17 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.
So Naaman said, “If you won't, please let me, your servant, take back with me two mule loads of earth, for I will never again bring a burnt offering or make a sacrifice to any other god but the Lord.
18 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.
In addition, may the Lord forgive me for doing this: When my master goes into the temple of Rimmon to worship there, and I assist him, and I bow down in the temple of Rimmon, may the Lord forgive me for doing so.”
19 Un viņš uz to sacīja: ej ar mieru.
“Go in peace,” said Elisha, and Naaman left. But he had only gone a short way
20 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.
when Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said to himself, “Just look how my master has let this Naaman the Syrian off the hook by not accepting the gifts he brought! As the Lord lives, I'll run after him and get something from him.”
21 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?
So Gehazi chased after Naaman. When Naaman saw him running after him, he jumped down from the chariot to meet him and asked, “Is everything all right?”
22 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.
“Everything's fine,” Gehazi replied. “My master sent me to tell you, ‘I've just found out that two young men have arrived to see me from the sons of the prophets who live the hill country of Ephraim. Please let them have a talent of silver and two sets of clothing.’”
23 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.
But Naaman replied, “Please, take two talents.” He insisted that Gehazi to accept them. Then he tied up two talents of silver in two bags as well as two sets of clothing. He gave them to two of his servants, who carried them for Gehazi.
24 Kad nu viņš nāca pie pakalnes, tad viņš to paņēma no viņu rokām un to nolika namā un tos vīrus atlaida, ka tie aizgāja.
When Gehazi arrived at the hill fortress, he took the gifts from the servants and put them in the house. He told the men they could go, and they left.
25 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.
When Gehazi got back and attended his master, Elisha asked him, “Where have you been, Gehazi?” “Your servant hasn't been anywhere,” he replied.
26 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?
But Elisha told him, “Didn't I see you in my mind's eye when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to take money and clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, male and female servants?
27 Tāpēc Naēmana spitālība tev pielips un tavam dzimumam mūžam. Tad tas no viņa aizgāja spitālīgs kā sniegs.
Consequently Naaman's leprosy will stick to you and your descendants forever!” As Gehazi left him, he had leprosy—he looked as white as snow.
