2 Kings 5

1 Now Naaman, captain of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honorable, because by him the LORD had given victory to Syria; he was also a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.

Na, ko Naamana, ko te rangatira ope a te kingi o Hiria, he tangata nui i te aroaro o tona ariki, e whakanuia ana hoki, no te mea i waiho ia e Ihowa hei kaihomai i te wikitoria ki a Hiria: he tangata marohirohi ano ia, he toa, otiia he repera.

2 The Syrians had gone out in bands, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little girl, and she waited on Naaman’s wife.

Na i haere atu nga torohe a nga Hiriani, a riro parau ana mai i a ratou tetahi kotiro iti i te whenua o Iharaira; na ka waiho ia hei mahi ki te wahine a Naamana.

3 She said to her mistress, “I wish that my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria! Then he would heal him of his leprosy.”

Na ka mea tera ki tona rangatira, Aue! me i tata toku ariki ki te poropiti i Hamaria ra! katahi ano he kaiwhakaora mo tona repera.

4 Someone went in and told his lord, saying, “The girl who is from the land of Israel said this.”

Na kua haere tetahi, kua korero ki tona ariki, kua mea, Anei nga korero a te kotiro o te whenua o Iharaira.

5 The king of Syria said, “Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” He departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing.

Na ka mea te kingi o Hiria, Haere mai, haere, me tuku pukapuka ahau ki te kingi o Iharaira. Na haere ana ia, maua ana hoki i tona ringa tekau nga taranata hiriwa, e ono mano nga hekere koura, tekau nga whakarua kakahu.

6 He brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, “Now when this letter has come to you, behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may heal him of his leprosy.”

Na kawea ana e ia te pukapuka ki te kingi o Iharaira; ko te korero tenei, Ka tae atu tenei pukapuka ki a koe, na, kua unga atu e ahau taku tangata a Naamana ki a koe, kia whakaorangia e koe tona repera.

7 When the king of Israel had read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man sends to me to heal a man of his leprosy? But please consider and see how he seeks a quarrel against me.”

A, i te korerotanga a te kingi o Iharaira i te pukapuka, ka haea e ia ona kakahu, ka mea, He atua ianei ahau hei whakamate, hei whakaora, i tono mai ai tenei tangata ki ahau kia whakaorangia te repera o te tangata? Na kia mohio koutou, kia kite, e rapu ana ia he take riri ki ahau.

8 It was so, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, “Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.”

A, no te rongonga o Eriha tangata a te Atua kua haea e te kingi o Iharaira ona kakahu, na ka unga tangata ia ki te kingi hei mea, He aha i haea ai e koe ou kakahu? me haere mai ia ki ahau inaianei, a ka mohio ia he poropiti tenei kei a Iharaira.

9 So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.

Heoi haere ana mai a Naamana, me ana hoiho, me ana hariata, a tu ana i te tatau o te whare o Eriha.

10 Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again to you, and you shall be clean.”

Na ka unga he tangata e Eriha ki a ia hei mea, Haere, kia whitu nga horoinga ki Horano, a ka hoki ou kikokiko ki a koe, ka ma koe.

11 But Naaman was angry, 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 wave his hand over the place, and heal the leper.’

Otira ka riri a Naamana, ka haere, ka mea, Nana, i mahara ahau, Tera ia e puta mai ki ahau, e tu, e karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa, o tona Atua, ka whakahaere hoki i tona ringa ki runga ki te wahi, a ka whakaorangia te repera.

12 Are not Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could not I wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage.

Ehara ianei a Apana, a Parapara, nga awa o Ramahiku, i te pai atu i nga wai katoa o Iharaira? kaua ianei ahau e horoi ki era, kia ma ai ahau? Heoi tahuri ana ia, a haere riri ana.

13 His servants came near and spoke to him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had asked you do some great thing, would not you have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?”

Na ka whakatata mai ana tangata, ka korero ki a ia, ka mea, E toku papa, mehemea te poropiti i whai kupu ki a koe kia meatia tetahi mea nui, e kore ianei e meatia e koe? Na tera noa ake ranei i a ia ka ki mai ki a koe, Horoi, kia ma ai?

14 Then went he down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.

Katahi ia ka haere ki raro, a ka rukuruku i a ia, e whitu nga rukuhanga ki Horano, pera me ta te tangata a te Atua i korero ai; a hoki ana ona kikokiko, ano he kikokiko no te tamaiti nohinohi, a kua ma ia.

15 He returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him; and he said, “See now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel. Now therefore, please take a gift from your servant.”

Na hoki ana ia ki te tangata a te Atua, a ia me tana huihui katoa, a ka tae, ka tu i mua i a ia: a ka mea ia, Nana, katahi ahau ka mohio, kahore he Atua i te whenua katoa, kei a Iharaira anake: na, tena, kia tangohia e koe tetahi manaakitanga a tau pononga.

16 But he said, “As the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none.” He urged him to take it; but he refused.

Ano ra ko tera, E ora ana a Ihowa, kei tona aroaro nei ahau e tu ana, e kore e tangohia e ahau. Na tohe ana tera ki a ia kia tangohia; otiia whakakahore tonu ia.

17 Naaman said, “If not, then, please let two mules’ load of earth be given to your servant; for your servant will from now on offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to other gods, but to the LORD.

Ano ra ko Naamana, Ki te kahore, kati me homai ki tau pononga he oneone, kia rite ki te kawenga ma nga muera e rua; e kore hoki tau pononga e mea i te tahunga tinana, i te patunga tapu ranei a mui ake ma teahi atau ke, engari ma Ihowa.

18 In this thing may the LORD pardon your servant: 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 myself in the house of Rimmon, may the LORD pardon your servant in this thing.”

Ma Ihowa e whakarere noa te hara o tau pononga i tenei mea; ara ina haere toku ariki ki te whare o Rimono ki te koropiko i reira, a ka whirinaki mai ia ki toku ringa, a ka koropiko ahau i roto i te whare o Rimono: ka koropiko ahau i roto i te wh are o Rimono, me whakarere noa iho e Ihowa te hara o tenei mea a tau pononga

19 He said to him, “Go in peace.” So he departed from him a little way.

Ano ra ko tera ki a ia, Haere marie. Na mawehe atu ana ia i a ia he wahi iti nei.

20 But Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Behold, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought. As the LORD lives, I will run after him, and take something from him.”

Otira ka mea a Kehati, te kaimahi a Eriha tangata a te Atua, Na, kua ata hanga toku ariki ki tenei Naamana Hiriani, kihai nei i tango i tona ringa i nga mea i mauria mai nei e ia: e ora ana a Ihowa, ka oma ahau i muri i a ia, a ka tango i tetahi mea i a ia.

21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. When Naaman saw one running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him, and said, “Is all well?”

Heoi whai ana a Kehati i a Naamana. A, no te kitenga o Naamana i tetahi e whai ana i muri i a ia, ka marere iho ia i te hariata ki te whakatau i a ia, ka mea, He pai ranei.

22 He said, “All is well. My master has sent me, saying, ‘Behold, even now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing.’”

Ano ra ko tera, He pai. Na toku ariki ahau i unga mai hei mea, Na, tenei etahi taitamariki tokorua kua tae mai ki ahau inaianei no te whenua pukepuke o Eparaima, no nga tama a nga poropiti; hoatu koa ma raua tetahi taranata hiriwa, kia rua hoki nga whakarua kakahu.

23 Naaman said, “Be pleased to take two talents.” He urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing, and laid them on two of his servants; and they carried them before him.

Na ka mea a Naamana, Whakaae mai, ka tango kia rua taranata. Na tohea ana ia e ia, a takaia ana e ia nga taranata hiriwa e rua ki nga peke e rua, me nga whakarua kakahu e rua, a whakawaha ana ki ana tangata tokorua; a na raua i mau ki tona aroar o.

24 When he came to the hill, he took them from their hand, and stored them in the house. Then he let the men go, and they departed.

A, no tona taenga ki te puke, ka tangohia mai e ia i o raua ringa, a whakatakotoria ana ki te whare. Na tukua atu ana e ia aua tangata, a haere ana raua.

25 But he went in, and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, “Where did you come from, Gehazi?” He said, “Your servant went nowhere.”

Otiia haere ana ia ki roto, a tu ana i te aroaro o tona ariki. Na ka mea a Eriha ki a ia, I haere mai koe i hea, e Kehati? Ano ra ko ia, Kahore noa iho tau pononga i te haere.

26 He said to him, “Did not my heart go with you when the man turned 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 cattle, and male servants and female servants?

Na ka mea ia ki a ia, Kihai ianei toku ngakau i haere tahi me koe, i te tahuritanga mai o taua tangata i runga i tona hariata ki te whakatau i a koe? He wa ianei tenei mo te tango moni, mo te tango kakahu, mara oriwa, mara waina, hipi, kau, pono nga tane, pononga wahine ranei?

27 Therefore the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and to your offspring forever.” He went out from his presence a leper, as white as snow.

Na reira ka piri ki a koe te repera o Naamana, ki tou uri hoki, a ake ake. Na haere atu ana ia i tona aroaro, he repera, ma tonu me te hukarere.
