< 2 Kings 5 >

1 Naamani jẹ́ olórí ogun ọba Aramu. Ó jẹ́ ènìyàn ńlá níwájú ọ̀gá rẹ̀, wọ́n sì bu ọlá fún un, nítorí nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni Olúwa ti fi ìṣẹ́gun fún Aramu. Òun jẹ́ alágbára, akọni ọkùnrin ṣùgbọ́n, ó dẹ́tẹ̀.
Naaman, general of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable: for by him the Lord gave deliverance to Syria: and he was a valiant man and rich, but a leper.
2 Nísinsin yìí ẹgbẹgbẹ́ láti Aramu ti jáde lọ láti mú ọmọ obìnrin kékeré kan ní ìgbèkùn láti Israẹli, ó sì sin ìyàwó Naamani.
Now there had gone out robbers from Syria, and had led away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid, and she waited upon Naaman’s wife.
3 Ó sọ fún ọ̀gá rẹ̀ obìnrin pé, “Tí ó bá jẹ́ wí pé ọ̀gá mi lè rí wòlíì tí ó wà ní Samaria! Yóò wò ó sàn kúrò nínú ẹ̀tẹ̀ rẹ̀.”
And she said to her mistress: I wish my master had been with the prophet, that is in Samaria: he would certainly have healed him of the leprosy which he hath.
4 Naamani lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ̀gá rẹ̀ ó sì wí fún un ohun tí ọmọbìnrin Israẹli ti sọ.
Then Naaman went in to his lord, and told him, saying: Thus and thus said tile girl from the land of Israel.
5 “Ní gbogbo ọ̀nà, lọ,” ọba Aramu dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi yóò fi ìwé ránṣẹ́ sí ọba Israẹli.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Naamani lọ, ó sì mú pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà mẹ́wàá, ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́fà ìwọ̀n wúrà àti ìpààrọ̀ aṣọ mẹ́wàá.
And the king of Syria sad to him: 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 tell changes of raiment,
6 Ìwé tí ó mú lọ sọ́dọ̀ ọba Israẹli kà pé, “Pẹ̀lú ìwé yìí èmi ń rán ìránṣẹ́ mi Naamani sí ọ pé o lè wò ó sàn kúrò nínú ẹ̀tẹ̀ rẹ̀.”
And brought the letter to the king of Israel, in these words: When thou shalt receive this letter, know that I have sent to thee Naaman my servant, that thou mayest heal him of his leprosy.
7 Bí ọba Israẹli ti ka ìwé náà ó fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ha jẹ́ Ọlọ́run? Ǹjẹ́ èmi le pa kí n sì mú wá sí ààyè padà? Kí ni ó dé tí eléyìí rán ènìyàn sí mi láti wo ààrùn ẹ̀tẹ̀ rẹ sàn, kí ẹ wo bí ó ti ń wá ọ̀nà láti wá ìjà pẹ̀lú mi!”
And when the king of Israel had read the letter, he rent his garments, and said: Am I God, to be able to kill and give life, that this man hath sent to me, to heal a man of his leprosy? mark, and see how he seeketh occasions against me.
8 Nígbà tí Eliṣa ènìyàn Ọlọ́run gbọ́ pé ọba Israẹli ti ya aṣọ rẹ̀, ó sì rán iṣẹ́ yìí sí i pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí o fi fa aṣọ rẹ ya? Jẹ́ kí ọkùnrin náà wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi. Òun yóò sì mọ̀ pé wòlíì wà ní Israẹli.”
And when Eliseus the man of God had heard this, to wit, that the king of Israel had rent his garments, he sent to him, saying: Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come to me, and let him know that there is a prophet in Israel.
9 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Naamani sì lọ pẹ̀lú ẹṣin rẹ̀ àti kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ ó sì dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé Eliṣa.
So Naaman came with Iris horses and chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Eliseus:
10 Eliṣa rán ìránṣẹ́ láti lọ sọ fún un pé, “Lọ, wẹ̀ ara rẹ ní ìgbà méje ní odò Jordani, ẹran-ara rẹ yóò sì tún padà bọ̀ sípò, ìwọ yóò sì mọ́.”
And Eliseus sent a messenger to him, saying: Go, and wash seven times in the Jordan, and thy flesh shall recover health, and thee shalt be clean.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n Naamani lọ pẹ̀lú ìbínú ó sì wí pé, “Mo lérò pé yóò sì dìde jáde wá nítòótọ́ sí mi, yóò sì pe orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run, fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ lórí ibẹ̀ kí ó sì wo ẹ̀tẹ̀ mi sàn.
Naaman was angry and went away, saying: I thought he would hare come out to me, and standing would hare invoked the name of the Lord his God, and touched with his hand the place of the leprosy, and healed me.
12 Abana àti Fapari, odò Damasku kò ha dára ju gbogbo omi Israẹli lọ? Ṣé èmi kò le wẹ̀ nínú wọn kí n sì mọ́?” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó yípadà, ó sì lọ pẹ̀lú ìrunú.
Are not the Abana, and the Pharphar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel, that I may wash in them, and be made clean? So as he turned, and was going away with indignation,
13 Ìránṣẹ́ Naamani lọ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ ó sì wí pé, “Baba mi, tí wòlíì bá ti sọ fún ọ láti ṣe ohun ńlá kan, ṣé ìwọ kì bá ti ṣe, mélòó mélòó nígbà náà, nígbà tí ó sọ fún ọ pé, ‘Wẹ̀ kí o sì mọ́’!”
His servants came to him, and said to him: Father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, surely thou shouldst have done it: how much rather what he now hath said to thee: Wash, and thou shalt he clean?
14 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ ó sì tẹ ara rẹ̀ bọ inú odò Jordani ní ìgbà méje, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ti sọ fún un, ẹran-ara rẹ̀ sì tún padà sí mímọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọmọkùnrin kékeré.
Then he went down, and washed in the Jordan seven times: according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was restored, like the flesh of a little child, and he was made clean.
15 Nígbà náà Naamani àti gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ padà lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run. Ó sì dúró níwájú rẹ̀ ó sì wí pé, “Nísinsin yìí èmi mọ̀ pé kò sí Ọlọ́run ní gbogbo àgbáyé àyàfi ní Israẹli nìkan. Jọ̀wọ́ gba ẹ̀bùn láti ọwọ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.”
And returning to the man of God with all his train, be came, and stood before him, and said: In truth, I know there is no other God in all the earth, but only in Israel: I beseech thee therefore take a blessing of thy servant.
16 Wòlíì náà dáhùn pé, “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ láààyè, ẹni tí mo ń sìn, èmi kò nígbà ohun kan,” bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Naamani rọ̀ ọ́ láti gbà á, ó kọ̀.
But he answered: As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And when he pressed him, he still refused.
17 Naamani wí pé, “Tí o kò bá nígbà, jọ̀wọ́ jẹ́ kí a fi fún èmi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀pọ̀ ẹrù erùpẹ̀ tí ìbáaka méjì le rù, nítorí láti òní lọ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kì yóò rú ẹbọ sísun àti rú ẹbọ sí ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn mọ́ bí kò ṣe sí Olúwa.
And Naaman said: As thou wilt: but I beseech thee, grant to me thy servant, to take from hence two mules’ burden of earth: for thy servant will not henceforth offer holocaust, or victim, to other gods, but to the Lord.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n kí Olúwa kí ó dáríjì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ fún nǹkan yìí. Nígbà tí ọ̀gá mi wọ inú ilé Rimoni láti fi orí balẹ̀ tí ó sì fi ara ti ọwọ́ mi tí mo sì tẹ ara mi ba pẹ̀lú níbẹ̀. Nígbà tí èmi tẹ ara mi ba ní ilé Rimoni, kí Olúwa dáríjì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ fún èyí.”
But there is only this, for which thou shalt entreat the Lord for thy servant, when my master goeth into the temple of Remmon, to worship: and he leaneth upon my hand, if I bow down in the temple of Remmon, when he boweth down in the same place, that the Lord pardon me thy servant for this thing.
19 Eliṣa wí pé, “Máa lọ ní àlàáfíà.” Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Naamani tí rin ìrìnàjò tí ó jìnnà,
And he said to him: Go in peace. So he departed from him in the springtime of the earth.
20 Gehasi, ìránṣẹ́ Eliṣa ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ó wí fún ara rẹ̀ pé, “Ọ̀gá mi jẹ́ ẹni tí ó rọ́nú lórí Naamani, ará Aramu, nípa pé kò gba ohunkóhun ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ohun tí ó mú wá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti ń bẹ láààyè, èmi yóò sá tẹ̀lé e èmi yóò sì gba ohun kan ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀.”
But Giezi the servant of the man of God said: My master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving of him that which he brought: as the Lord liveth, I will run after him, and take some thing of him:
21 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Gehasi sáré tẹ̀lé Naamani. Nígbà tí Naamani rí i tí ó ń sáré tẹ̀lé e, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ láti pàdé rẹ̀. “Ṣé gbogbo nǹkan wà dáradára?” ó béèrè.
And Giezi followed after Naaman: and when he saw him running after him, he leapt down from his chariot to meet him, and said: Is all well?
22 “Gbogbo nǹkan wà dáradára,” Gehasi dá a lóhùn. “Ọ̀gá mi rán mi láti sọ wí pé, ‘Àwọn ọ̀dọ́ ọmọkùnrin méjì láti ọ̀dọ̀ ọmọ wòlíì wọ́n ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi láti orí òkè ìlú ti Efraimu. Jọ̀wọ́ fún wọn ní ẹ̀bùn fàdákà àti ìpààrọ̀ aṣọ méjì.’”
And he said: Well: my master hath sent me to thee, saying: Just now there are come to me from mount Ephraim, two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.
23 Naamani wí pé, “Ní gbogbo ọ̀nà, mú ẹ̀bùn méjì.” Ó sì rọ Gehasi láti gbà wọ́n, ó sì di ẹ̀bùn méjì náà ti fàdákà ní inú àpò méjì, pẹ̀lú ìpààrọ̀ aṣọ méjì, ó sì fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ méjì, wọ́n sì kó wọn lọ sọ́dọ̀ Gehasi.
And Naaman said: It is better that thou take two talents. And he forced him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, and two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants, and they carried them before him.
24 Nígbà tí Gehasi sì dé ibi ilé ìṣọ́, ó gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ wọn, ó sì tó wọ́n sínú ilé, ó sì jọ̀wọ́ àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ́wọ́ lọ, wọ́n sì jáde lọ.
And when he was come, and now it was the evening, he took them from their hands, and laid them up in the house, and sent the men away, and they departed.
25 Nígbà náà ó sì wọlé wá ó sì dúró níwájú ọ̀gá rẹ̀ Eliṣa. “Níbo ni o ti wà Gehasi?” Eliṣa béèrè. “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kò lọ sí ibìkan kan.” Gehasi dá a lóhùn.
But he went in, and stood before his master. And Eliseus said: Whence comest thou, Giezi? He answered: Thy servant went no whither.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n Eliṣa wí fún un pé, “Ẹ̀mí mi kò ha wà pẹ̀lú rẹ nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà sọ̀kalẹ̀ lórí kẹ̀kẹ́ láti pàdé rẹ? Ṣé àsìkò tí ó yẹ láti gba owó nìyìí, tàbí láti gba aṣọ, ọgbà olifi, ọgbà àjàrà, àgùntàn, màlúù tàbí ìránṣẹ́kùnrin àti ìránṣẹ́bìnrin?
But he said: Was not my heart present, when the man turned back from his chariot to meet thee? So now thou hast received money, and received garments, to buy oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants.
27 Ẹ̀tẹ̀ Naamani yóò lẹ̀ mọ́ ọ àti sí irú-ọmọ rẹ títí láé.” Nígbà náà Gehasi kúrò níwájú Eliṣa, ó sì di adẹ́tẹ̀, ó sì funfun gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀gbọ̀n òwú.
But the leprosy of Naaman shall also stick to thee, and to thy seed for ever. And he went out from him a leper as white as snow.
