2 Kings 5
1 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.
Alò, Naaman, kapitèn lame a wa Syrie a, te yon mesye enpòtan a mèt li e li te estime anpil. Akoz li menm, SENYÈ a te bay yon viktwa pou Syrie. Anplis, mesye a te yon gèrye gran kouraj, men li te gen lalèp.
2 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.
Alò, Siryen yo te sòti pa ekip e yo te pran an kaptivite yon jenn tifi nan peyi Israël; epi li te sèvi madanm a Naaman an.
3 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.
Li te pale konsa a mètrès li a: “Mwen ta tèlman vle ke mèt mwen an te avèk pwofèt Samarie a! Konsa, li ta geri li pou l pa gen lalèp la.”
4 Then Naaman went in to his lord, and told him, saying: Thus and thus said tile girl from the land of Israel.
Naaman te antre kote mèt li a e te di: “Men konsa, fi ki sòti peyi Israël la te pale.”
5 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,
Alò, wa Syrie a te di: “Ale koulye a e mwen va voye yon lèt kote wa Israël la.” Li te sòti e te pran avè l dis talan ajan ak si-mil sik an lò ak dis echanj vètman konplè.
6 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.
Li te mennen lèt la bay wa Israël la ki te di: “Epi koulye a, kòmsi lèt sa a rive bò kote ou, men vwala, mwen te voye Naaman, sèvitè mwen an kote ou, pou ou kab geri li nan afè lalèp sila a.”
7 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.
Lè wa Israël la te li lèt sa a, li te chire rad li. Li te di: “Èske se Bondye mwen ye, pou m kab touye e fè viv, pou nonm sa ta voye kote mwen pou geri yon mesye ki gen lalèp? Men gade byen kijan l ap chache yon kont avè m.”
8 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.
Li te rive ke lè Élisée, nonm Bondye a te tande ke wa Israël la te chire rad li, li te voye kote wa a e te di: “Poukisa ou chire rad ou konsa? Koulye a, kite li vin kote mwen e li va konnen ke gen yon pwofèt an Israël.”
9 So Naaman came with Iris horses and chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Eliseus:
Konsa, Naaman te vini avèk cheval li yo ak cha li yo e te kanpe devan pòtay lakay Élisée.
10 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.
Élisée te voye yon mesaje kote li ki te di: “Ale benyen nan Jourdain an sèt fwa. Chè ou va restore a ou menm e ou va vin pwòp.”
11 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.
Men Naaman te vin byen fache. Li te sòti e te di: “Gade byen, mwen te konnen ke asireman, li ta parèt deyò kote mwen, kanpe pou rele non SENYÈ a, Bondye li a e voye men li sou plas pou geri moun lalèp la.
12 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,
Èske rivyè Abana avèk Parpar nan Damas yo pa pi bon ke tout flèv Israël yo? Èske mwen pa t kab lave m nan yo e vin pwòp?” Konsa, li te vire sòti byen anraje.
13 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?
Alò, sèvitè li yo te pwoche; yo te pale avèk li e te di: “Papa mwen, si pwofèt la te di ou pou fè yon gwo bagay, èske ou pa t ap fè l. Konbyen, anplis, lè li di ou ‘Lave ou pou vin pwòp?’”
14 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.
Pou sa, li te desann e te fonse kò l sèt fwa nan Jourdain an, selon pawòl a nonm Bondye a; epi chè li te restore tankou chè a yon timoun, e li te vin pwòp.
15 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.
Lè li te retounen kote nonm Bondye a avèk tout konpanyen li e te vin kanpe devan li, li te di: “Gade byen, koulye a, mwen konnen ke nanpwen lòt Dye nan tout tè a, sof ke an Israël. Pou sa, souple, aksepte yon kado nan men sèvitè ou a depi koulye a.”
16 But he answered: As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And when he pressed him, he still refused.
Men li te di: “Jan SENYÈ a viv la, devan sila mwen kanpe a, mwen p ap pran anyen.” Konsa, li te ankouraje l pran, men li te refize.
17 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.
Naaman te di: “Malgre, si se pa sa, souple, bay sèvitè ou a chaj de milèt tè; paske sèvitè ou a p ap ofri ofrann brile ni sakrifis a lòt dye, men a SENYÈ a.
18 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.
Nan ka sa a, ke SENYÈ a kapab padone sèvitè ou a: lè mèt mwen antre nan kay Rimmon an, pou adore la, li va apiye sou men m e mwen va bese lakay Rimmon an, pou SENYÈ a kapab padone sèvitè ou a nan ka sa a.”
19 And he said to him: Go in peace. So he departed from him in the springtime of the earth.
Li te di li: “Ale anpè.” Konsa, li te pati de li a yon distans.
20 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:
Men Guéhazi, sèvitè Élisée a, nonm Bondye a, te reflechi: “Men gade, mèt mwen an te konsève Naaman sila a, Siryen an, pwiske li pa resevwa nan men l sa ke li te pote a. Jan SENYÈ a viv la, mwen ap kouri dèyè l e pran yon bagay de li menm.”
21 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?
Konsa, Guéhazi te kouri dèyè Naaman. Lè Naaman te wè yon moun vin kouri dèyè li, li te desann cha a pou rankontre li. Li te di: “Èske tout bagay byen?”
22 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.
Li te di: “Tout bagay byen. Mèt mwen an voye mwen. Li te di: ‘Gade byen, soti koulye a, de jenn mesye ki pami fis a pwofèt yo te vin kote mwen soti nan peyi ti mòn Ephraïm yo. Souple, ba yo yon talan ajan ak de echanj konplè nan vètman yo.’”
23 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.
Naaman te di: “Avèk plezi, pran de talan yo.” Epi li te ankouraje li. Li te mare de talan ajan yo nan de sak avèk de echanj konplè nan rad yo, e li te bay yo a de sèvitè li yo, epi yo te pote yo devan li.
24 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.
Lè li te rive kote ti mòn nan, li te pran yo soti nan men yo, li te mete yo nan kay la, li te voye mesye yo ale e yo te pati.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Eliseus said: Whence comest thou, Giezi? He answered: Thy servant went no whither.
Men li te antre ladann e te kanpe devan mèt li. Konsa, Elisée te di li: “Kote ou te ye Guéhazi?” Li te reponn: “Sèvitè ou a pa t ale okenn kote non.”
26 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.
Epi li te di l: “Èske kè m pa t sòti lè mesye a te vire kite cha li pou vin rankontre ou a? Èske sa se lè pou resevwa lajan, pou resevwa rad, chan doliv avèk chan rezen, avèk mouton ak bèf ak sèvitè avèk sèvant?
27 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.
Pou sa, lalèp Naaman an ap kole sou ou avèk desandan ou yo jis pou tout tan.” Konsa, li te kite prezans li kon yon lèp blan tankou lanèj.
