< २ राजाहरू 5 >
1 अरामका राजाका सेनापति नामान आफ्ना मालिकको दृष्टिमा महान् र इज्जतदार मानिस थिए किनकि तिनीद्वारा परमप्रभुले अरामलाई विजय दिनुभएको थियो । तिनी बलिया र साहसी मानिस पनि थिए, तर तिनी कुष्ठरोगी थिए ।
Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honorable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance to Syria: he was also a mighty man in valor, but he was a leper.
2 अरामीहरू दलहरूमा मिलेर हमला गर्न गएका थिए, र तिनीहरूले इस्राएल देशबाट एउटी सानी केटीलाई ल्याएका थिए । त्यसले नामानकी पत्नीको सेवा गर्थी ।
And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman’s wife.
3 केटीले आफ्नी मालिक्नीलाई भनी, “मेरा मालिक सामरियामा भएका अगमवक्ताको साथमा भएको भए हुन्थ्यो! तब उहाँले मेरा मालिकलाई कुष्ठरोगबाट निको पार्नुहुन्थ्यो ।”
And she said to her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.
4 त्यसैले नामान भित्र प्रवेश गरे, र इस्राएल देशबाट ल्याइएकी त्यो केटीले के भनेकी थई त्यो राजालाई भने ।
And one went in, and told his lord, saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.
5 त्यसैले अरामका राजाले भने, “अब जाऊ, र म इस्राएलका राजालाई एउटा चिठी पठाउनेछु ।” नामान गए र तिन सय चालिस किलो चाँदी, सत्तरी किलो सुन र दस जोर लुगा तिनले आफूसितै लगे ।
And the king of Syria said, Go to, go, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.
6 तिनले इस्राएलका राजाको निम्ति चिठी पनि लिएर गए जसमा लेखिएको थियो, “जब यो चिठी तपाईंकहाँ ल्याइन्छ मैले तपाईंकहाँ आफ्नो सेवकलाई पठाएको तपाईंले देख्नुहुनेछ, ताकि तपाईंले तिनको कुष्ठरोगबाट तिनलाई निको पारिदिनुहोस् ।”
And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, Now when this letter is come to you, behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may recover him of his leprosy.
7 जब इस्राएलका राजाले चिठी पढेका थिए, तब तिनले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते र भने, “आफैमा कुष्ठरोग भएको मानिसलाई मैले निको पारोस् भनी यो मानिसले इच्छा गर्नलाई मार्न र जिउँदो पार्न के म परमेश्वर हुँ र? उसले मसित झगडाको निहुँ खोजेको जस्तो पो लाग्दैछ ।”
And it came to pass, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his clothes, and said, Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man does send to me to recover a man of his leprosy? why consider, I pray you, and see how he seeks a quarrel against me.
8 त्यसैले इस्राएलका राजालले आफ्ना लुगा च्याते भनी जब परमेश्वरका मानिस एलीशाले सुने, तब तिनले राजालाई यसो भनी समाचार पठाए, “किन तपाईंले आफ्नो लुगा च्यात्नुभएको? अब ऊ मकहाँ आओस्, र इस्राएलमा अगमवक्ता रहेछन् भनी उसले थाहा पाउनेछ ।”
And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, Why have you rent your clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.
9 त्यसैले नामान आफ्ना घोडाहरू र रथहरू लिएर आए र एलीशाको घरको ढोकामा उभिए ।
So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
10 एलीशाले तिनीकहाँ यसो भनेर एक जना सन्देशवाहक पठाए, “जानुहोस् र यर्दनमा आफूलाई सातपल्ट डुबुल्की लगाउनुहोस् र तपाईंको देह पहिलेको जस्तै हुनेछ । तपाईं शुद्ध बन्नुहुनेछ ।”
And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again to you, and you shall be clean.
11 तर नामान रिसाए र यसो भन्दै गए, “हेर, निश्चय नै तिनी मकहाँ बाहिर आउँनेछन् र खडा हुनेछन् अनि तिनले आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको नाउँ पुकार्नेछन् र मेरो कुष्ठरोगमाथि आफ्ना हात हल्लाउँनेछन् र मेरो कुष्टरोग निको पार्नेछन् भनी मैले सोचेको थिएँ ।
But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.
12 के दमस्कसका अबाना र फारपर नदीहरू इस्राएलका सबै पानीभन्दा असल छैनन् र? के म तिनमा नुहाएर शुद्ध हुन सक्दिनँ र?” त्यसैले तिनी फर्के र क्रुद्ध हुँदै आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage.
13 तब नामानका सेवकहरू नजिक आए, र तिनलाई भने, “हे मेरा पिता, अगमवक्ताले तपाईंलाई कुनै कठिन कुरो गर्न लगाएको भए के तपाईंले त्यो गर्नुहुने थिएन र? त्यसको बदलामा 'आफैलाई डुबुल्की लगाउन र शुद्ध हुन' भन्दा झन् किन नगर्ने त?”
And his servants came near, and spoke to him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid you do some great thing, would you not have done it? how much rather then, when he says to you, Wash, and be clean?
14 तब तिनी तल गए र परमेश्वरका मानिसको सल्लाह मानेर यर्दमा आफैलाई सात पल्ट डुबुल्की लगाए । तिनको देह बच्चाको झैँ पहिलेजस्तै भयो र तिनी निको भए ।
Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like to the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
15 नामान र तिनको दल परमेश्वरका मानिसकहाँ फर्केर आए र तिनको सामु खडा भए । तिनले भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, सारा पृथ्वीमा इस्राएलमा बाहेक अन्त कतै परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्न रहेछ भनी अब मलाई थाहा भयो । त्यसकारण तपाईंको दासबाट उपहार ग्रहण गर्नुहोस् ।”
And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray you, take a blessing of your servant.
16 तर एलीशाले जावाफ दिए, “परमप्रभु जसको सामु म खडा हुन्छु, उहाँको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर भन्छु, म केही लिने छैनँ ।” नामानले एलीशालाई उपहार लिन बिन्ती गरे तर तिनले इन्कार गरे ।
But he said, As the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.
17 त्यसैले नामानले भने, “तपाईं लिनुहुन्न भने तपाईंका दासलाई दुईवटा खच्चरले बोक्न सक्ने माटो लान दिनुहोस् । किनकि अबदेखि तपाईंका दासले परमप्रभुबाहेक अन्य कुनै ईश्वरलाई न त होमबलि न बलिदान चढाउनेछ ।
And Naaman said, Shall there not then, I pray you, be given to your servant two mules’ burden of earth? for your servant will from now on offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to other gods, but to the LORD.
18 यो एउटा कुरामा परमप्रभुले तपाईंको दासलाई क्षमा गरून्, त्यो हो, जब मेरा राजा रिम्मोनको मन्दिरमा पुजा गर्न जान्छन् अनि मेरो हातमा भर पर्छन्, अनि रिम्मोनको मन्दिरमा म पनि निहुरिन्छु, तब यस विषयमा परमप्रभुले हजुरको दासलाई क्षमा गरून् ।”
In this thing the LORD pardon your servant, that when my master 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 down myself in the house of Rimmon, the LORD pardon your servant in this thing.
19 एलीशाले तिनलाई भने, “शान्तिसित जाऊ ।” यसरी नामान फर्केर गए ।
And he said to him, Go in peace. So he departed from him a little way.
20 तिनी अलि पर मात्र पुगेका थिए, परमेश्वरका मानिस एलीशाको सेवक गेहजीले आफ्नो मनमा भन्यो, “मेरा मालिकले यी अरामी नामानको हातबाट तिनले ल्याएका उपहारहरू ग्रहण नगरी तिनको बचत गर्नुभएको छ । परमप्रभुको नाउँमा शपथ खाएर म भन्छु, म तिनको पछि दौडेर जानेछु, र तिनीबाट केही लिनेछु ।”
But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master has spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD lives, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.
21 त्यसैले गेहजी नामानको पछि गयो । जब नामानले तिनको पछि कोही दौडेर आएको देखे, तब आफ्नो रथबाट त्यसलाई भेट्न तिनी ओर्ले र भने, “के सबै कुरा ठिकै छ?”
So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?
22 गेहजीले भन्यो, “सबै ठिकै कुरा छ । मेरा मालिकले मलाई यसो भनेर पठाउनुभएको छ, 'हेर, एफ्राइमको पहाडी देशबाट अगमवक्ताहरूका छोराहरूमध्ये दुई जना युवा मकहाँ आएका छन् । कृपया, तिनीहरूलाई एक तोडा चाँदी र दुई जोर लुगा दिनुहोस् ।”
And he said, All is well. My master has sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray you, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.
23 नामानले भने, “म तिमीलाई दुई तोडा चाँदी दिन अत्यन्तै खुसी छु ।” नामानले गेहजीलाई जिद्दी गरे र दुईवटा थैलामा दुई तोडा चाँदी र दुई जोर लुगा राखिदिए, अनि तिनले आफ्ना दुई जना सेवक दिए जसले ती थैलाहरू बोकेर गेहजीको अगि लागे ।
And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them on two of his servants; and they bore them before him.
24 जब गेहजी डाँडामा आइपुग्यो त्यसले तिनीहरूका हातबाट चाँदीका थैलाहरू लियो र ती घरमा लुकायो । त्यसले ती मानिसहरूलाई पठायो र उनीहरू गए ।
And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.
25 जब गेहजी भित्र गयो र आफ्ना मालिकको अघि खडा भयो, तब एलीशाले भने, “ए गेहजी, तँ कहाँबाट आएको?” त्यसले जवाफ दियो, “तपाईंको दास कतै गएन ।”
But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, From where come you, Gehazi? And he said, Your servant went no where.
26 एलीशाले गेहजीलाई भने, “ती मानिसले तँलाई भेट्न आफ्नो रथ घुमाउँदा के मेरो आत्मा तँसितै थिएन र? के यो रुपियाँ-पैसा र लत्ता कपडा, भद्राक्षका बोटहरू र दाखबारीहरू, भेडा-बाख्रा र गाई-गोरुहरू अनि कमारा-कमारीहरू ग्रहण गर्ने समय हो र?
And he said to him, Went not my heart with you, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and olive groves, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?
27 त्यसैले नामानको कुष्ठरोग तँ र तेरा सन्तानमाथि सधैँभरि रहनेछ ।” त्यसैले गेहजी हिउँजस्तै सेतो कुष्ठरोगी बनेर तिनको उपस्थितिबाट बाहिर गयो ।
The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall stick to you, and to your seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.
