2 Wafalme 5
1 Wakati huu, Naamani alikuwa jemadari wa jeshi la mfalme wa Aramu. Alikuwa mtu mkuu mbele ya bwana wake na aliyeheshimiwa sana, kwa sababu kupitia kwake, Bwana alikuwa amewapa Aramu ushindi. Alikuwa askari shujaa, lakini alikuwa na ukoma.
And Naaman [the] commander of [the] army of [the] king of Aram he was a man great before master his and lifted up of face for by him he had given Yahweh victory to Aram and the man he was a mighty [man] of strength having a skin disease.
2 Siku hizo vikosi kutoka Aramu vilikuwa vimekwenda na vikawa vimemteka msichana kutoka Israeli, naye akamtumikia mkewe Naamani.
And Aram they had gone out marauding bands and they had taken captive from [the] land of Israel a girl young and she was before [the] wife of Naaman.
3 Akamwambia bibi yake, “Kama bwana wangu angelimwona nabii aliyeko Samaria! Angemponya ukoma wake.”
And she said to mistress her would that! master my [was] before the prophet who [is] in Samaria then he will deliver him from skin disease his.
4 Naamani akaenda kwa bwana wake na kumwambia alichosema yule msichana kutoka Israeli.
And he went and he told to master his saying like this and like this she spoke the girl who [is] from [the] land of Israel.
5 Mfalme wa Aramu akamjibu, “Hakika, nenda. Nitatuma barua kwa mfalme wa Israeli.” Kwa hiyo Naamani akaondoka, akiwa amechukua talanta kumi za fedha, shekeli 6,000 za dhahabu, na mivao kumi ya mavazi.
And he said [the] king of Aram come go so let me send a letter to [the] king of Israel and he went and he took in hand his ten talents of silver and six thousand gold and ten changes of garments.
6 Barua aliyopelekea mfalme wa Israeli iliandikwa hivi: “Pamoja na barua hii ninamtuma mtumishi wangu, Naamani, kwako ili uweze kumponya ukoma wake.”
And he brought the letter to [the] king of Israel saying and now when comes the letter this to you here! I have sent to you Naaman servant my and you will deliver him from skin disease his.
7 Mara mfalme wa Israeli alipomaliza kuisoma ile barua, akararua mavazi yake na kusema, “Je, mimi ni Mungu? Je, mimi naweza kuua na kufufua tena? Kwa nini huyu mtu anamtuma mtu ili mimi nipate kumponya ukoma wake? Tazama jinsi anavyotafuta kuanzisha ugomvi nami!”
And it was when read aloud [the] king of Israel the letter and he tore clothes his and he said ¿ God [am] I to kill and to restore to life that this [man] [is] sending to me to deliver a man from skin disease his that only consider please and see that [is] seeking an opportunity he to me.
8 Elisha mtu wa Mungu aliposikia kwamba mfalme wa Israeli alikuwa amerarua mavazi yake, akamtumia ujumbe huu: “Kwa nini umerarua mavazi yako? Mwamuru mtu huyo aje kwangu, naye atajua ya kuwa yuko nabii katika Israeli.”
And it was when heard - Elisha [the] man of God that he had torn [the] king of Israel clothes his and he sent to the king saying why? did you tear clothes your let him come please to me so he may know that there [is] a prophet in Israel.
9 Kwa hiyo Naamani akaenda, akiwa na farasi zake na magari yake, na kusimama mlangoni mwa nyumba ya Elisha.
And he came Naaman (with horses his *Q(K)*) and with chariot[s] his and he stood [the] entrance of the house of Elisha.
10 Elisha akamtuma mjumbe kumwambia, “Nenda uoge katika Yordani mara saba, na nyama ya mwili wako itapona, nawe utatakasika.”
And he sent to him Elisha a messenger saying go and you will wash seven times in the Jordan and it may return flesh your to you and be clean.
11 Lakini Naamani akaondoka akiwa amekasirika, akasema, “Hakika nilidhani kwamba angetoka nje, asimame na kuliitia jina la Bwana Mungu wake, na kuweka mkono wake juu ya mahali pagonjwa, aniponye ukoma wangu.
And he was angry Naaman and he went and he said here! I said to myself - he will come out continuously and he will stand and he will call on [the] name of Yahweh God his and he will wave hand his to the place and he will deliver the [one] having a skin disease.
12 Je, Abana na Farpari, mito ya Dameski, si bora zaidi kuliko mito yoyote ya Israeli? Je, nisingeweza kuoga ndani ya hiyo mito na kutakasika?” Basi akageuka na kuondoka kwa hasira kuu.
¿ Not good ([are] Amana *Q(K)*) and Pharpar [the] rivers of Damascus more than all [the] waters of Israel ¿ not will I wash in them and I will be clean and he turned and he went in a rage.
13 Watumishi wa Naamani wakamwendea na kumwambia, “Baba yangu, kama huyo nabii angekuambia kufanya jambo lililo kubwa, je, usingelifanya? Je, si zaidi sana basi, anapokuambia, ‘Oga na utakasike!’”
And they drew near servants his and they spoke to him and they said would that a thing great the prophet he spoke to you ¿ not will you do [it] and indeed? if he has said to you wash and be clean.
14 Hivyo akashuka na kujizamisha ndani ya Yordani mara saba, kama vile huyo mtu wa Mungu alivyokuwa amemwambia, nayo nyama ya mwili wake ikapona na kutakasika kama ya mwili wa mvulana mdogo.
And he went down and he dipped in the Jordan seven times according to [the] word of [the] man of God and it returned flesh his like [the] flesh of a lad young and he was clean.
15 Kisha Naamani na wahudumu wake wote wakarudi kwa yule mtu wa Mungu. Akasimama mbele yake na kusema, “Sasa najua kwamba hakuna Mungu katika ulimwengu wote isipokuwa katika Israeli. Tafadhali sasa upokee zawadi kutoka kwa mtumishi wako.”
And he went back to [the] man of God he and all camp his and he came and he stood before him and he said here! please I know that there not [is] a God in all the earth that except in Israel and now accept please a blessing from with servant your.
16 Nabii akajibu, “Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, ambaye ninamtumikia, sitapokea kitu hata kimoja.” Ingawa Naamani alimsihi sana, yeye alikataa.
And he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh whom I stand before him if I will accept and he urged him to accept and he refused.
17 Naamani akasema, “Ikiwa hutapokea, tafadhali mtumishi wako na apewe udongo kiasi cha mzigo wa kuweza kubebwa na punda wawili, kwa sababu mtumishi wako hatatoa tena sadaka ya kuteketezwa na dhabihu kwa mungu mwingine isipokuwa Bwana.
And he said Naaman and not let it be given please to servant your [the] load of a pair of mules earth for not he will offer again servant your burnt offering and sacrifice to gods other that except to Yahweh.
18 Lakini Bwana na amsamehe mtumishi wake kwa kitu hiki kimoja: Wakati bwana wangu atakapoingia kwenye hekalu la Rimoni ili kusujudu, naye akiwa anauegemea mkono wangu, nami nikasujudu huko pia, wakati nitakaposujudu ndani ya hekalu la Rimoni, Bwana na amsamehe mtumishi wako kwa ajili ya jambo hili.”
To the matter this may he forgive Yahweh servant your when goes master my [the] house of Rimmon to bow down there and he - [is] supporting himself on hand my and I will bow down [the] house of Rimmon when bow down I [the] house of Rimmon may he forgive (*Q(K)*) Yahweh servant your in the matter this.
19 Elisha akamwambia, “Nenda kwa amani.” Baada ya Naamani kusafiri umbali fulani,
And he said to him go to peace and he went from with him a distance of land.
20 Gehazi, mtumishi wa Elisha mtu wa Mungu, akajiambia mwenyewe, “Bwana wangu amemwachia kirahisi sana Naamani, huyu Mwaramu, kwa kutokupokea kutoka kwake vile alivyovileta. Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, nitamkimbilia na kupata kitu kutoka kwake.”
And he said Gehazi [the] servant of Elisha [the] man of God here! - he has restrained master my Naaman the Aramean this from accepting from hand his [that] which he brought [by] [the] life of Yahweh that except I run after him and I will accept from with him anything.
21 Hivyo Gehazi akaharakisha kumfuatilia Naamani. Naamani alipomwona akikimbia kumwelekea, akashuka chini kutoka kwenye gari lake na kwenda kumlaki. Akauliza, “Je, mambo yote ni sawa?”
And he pursued Gehazi after Naaman and he saw Naaman [one who] ran after him and he fell from on the chariot to meet him and he said ¿ peace.
22 Gehazi akajibu, “Mambo yote ni sawa. Bwana wangu amenituma nikuambie, ‘Vijana wawili kutoka kwa wana wa manabii wamenijia kutoka nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu. Tafadhali wape talanta ya fedha na mivao miwili ya mavazi.’”
And he said - peace master my he has sent me saying here! now this they have come to me two young men from [the] hill country of Ephraim of [the] sons of the prophets give! please to them a talent of silver and two changes of garments.
23 Naamani akasema, “Hakika, chukua talanta mbili za fedha.” Akamsihi Gehazi azipokee, kisha akafunga talanta mbili za fedha katika mifuko miwili pamoja na mivao miwili ya mavazi. Akawapa watumishi wake wawili mizigo hiyo, nao wakaibeba wakitangulia mbele ya Gehazi.
And he said Naaman be willing accept two talents and he urged him and he secured two talents silver in two bags and two changes of garments and he gave [them] to two of servants his and they carried [them] before him.
24 Gehazi alipofika kwenye kilima, akavichukua vile vitu kutoka kwa wale watumishi na kuvificha ndani ya nyumba. Akawaaga wale watu, nao wakaondoka.
And he came to the hill and he took [them] from hand their and he deposited [them] in the house and he sent away the men and they went.
25 Kisha akaingia ndani na kusimama mbele ya Elisha bwana wake. Elisha akamuuliza, “Gehazi, ulikuwa wapi?” Gehazi akajibu, “Mtumishi wako hakwenda popote.”
And he he went and he stood to master his and he said to him Elisha (from whence? *Q(K)*) O Gehazi and he said not he has gone servant your where? and where?
26 Lakini Elisha akamwambia, “Je, roho yangu haikuwa pamoja nawe wakati yule mtu aliposhuka kutoka kwenye gari lake ili kukulaki? Je, huu ni wakati wa kupokea fedha au kupokea nguo, mashamba ya mizeituni, mashamba ya mizabibu, makundi ya kondoo na mbuzi, makundi ya ngʼombe, au watumishi wa kiume na wa kike?
And he said to him not heart my did it go? just when he turned a man from on chariot his to meet you ¿ a time to accept silver and to accept clothes and olive trees and vineyards and sheep and cattle and male servants and maidservants.
27 Ukoma wa Naamani utakushika wewe na wazao wako milele.” Kisha Gehazi akaondoka mbele ya Elisha, mwenye ukoma, mweupe kama theluji.
And [the] skin disease of Naaman it will cling to you and to offspring your for ever and he went out from to before him having a skin disease like snow.
