1Now Naaman, captain of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honorable, because by him Yahweh had given victory to Syria: he was also a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper.
1 Amma Naaman, Suriya bonkoono wonkoyo, boro bambata no a windi koyo jine, darzakoy mo no, kaŋ a do mo no Rabbi na Suriyancey no zaama, nga ya wongu wongaari mo no -- amma jiraykooni no.
2The Syrians had gone out in bands, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maiden; and she waited on Naaman’s wife.
2 Suriyancey mo jin ka konda zurandi jama-da-jama. I na wandiyo kayna fo di ka fun d'a Israyla laabo ra. I kand'a, a go ga Naaman wande gaakasinay mo.
3She 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.”
3 A ne nga fu-nyaŋo se: «D'ay jine bora go annabo kaŋ go Samariya do, doŋ a ga jiraytara ban a gaa.»
4Someone went in, and told his lord, saying, “The maiden who is from the land of Israel said this.”
4 Kala boro fo furo ka ci nga jine bora se ka ne: «Ni maa, ni maa! haŋ kaŋ wandiya kaŋ fun Israyla laabu go ga ci?»
5The 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, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing.
5 Kala Suriyancey bonkoono ne: «Koy day. Ay mo ga tira samba Israyla bonkoono do.» A tun mo ka sambu nzarfu ton jare cine, nda nzarfu sekel* zambar iddu, da kwaay way.
6He 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.”
6 A kande tira mo Israyla bonkoono do kaŋ ne: «Waati kaŋ tira woone to ni kambe ra, ay n'ay bannya Naaman donton zama ni m'a jiraytara yayandi.»
7It happened, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that 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.”
7 A ciya, alwaato kaŋ Israyla bonkoono na tira caw, a na nga kwaayo tooru. A ne: « Ay ga ti Irikoy no, kaŋ ga wi ka funandi, hala nda boro wo ma donton ka ci ay se ya boro wo yayandi nga jiraytara gaa? Amma wa faham, ay g'araŋ ŋwaaray, araŋ ma di mate kaŋ cine a ga yanje ceeci nd'a ay gaa.»
8It 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.”
8 A ciya mo, alwaato kaŋ Irikoy bora Iliyasu maa baaru kaŋ Israyla bonkoono na nga kwaayo tooru, kal a donton bonkoono do ka ne: «Ifo no kaŋ ni na ni kwaayo tooru? A ma kaa ay do sohõ, a ga bay kaŋ annabi go no Israyla ra.»
9So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
9 Naaman mo kaa, nga nda nga bariyey da nga torkey, ka kay Iliyasu windo me gaa.
10Elisha 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.”
10 Iliyasu mo na diya donton a gaa ka ne: «Ni ma koy ka nyumay Urdun isa ra sorro iyye. Ni hamo ga ye ka kaa ni gaa, ni ga hanan mo.»
11But 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 Yahweh his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leper.’
11 Amma Naaman futu, a dira mo. A goono ga ne: «Ay ya ne haciika no a ga fatta ka kaa ay do. A ma kay, a ma Rabbi nga Irikoyo maa ce, a ma nga kambe feeni ay jiraytaray dooro boŋ k'a yayandi.
12Aren’t Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn’t I wash in them, and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage.
12 Abana nda Farpar, Damaskos kwaara goorey, manti i bisa Israyla harey kulu booriyaŋ? Ay si nyumay i ra ka hanan no?» A bare mo ka koy; a go ga futu.
13His servants came near, and spoke to him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had asked you do some great thing, wouldn’t you have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean?’”
13 Kal a zankey maan ka salaŋ a se. I ne a se: «Iri baaba, da annabo wo na ni lordi ka ne ni ma hari bambata fo te, manti ni g'a te no? Sanku fa binde sohõ kaŋ a ne ni se: ‹Ma nyumay ka hanan!› »
14Then 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.
14 Kal a zumbu. A miri sorro iyye Urdun ra, Irikoy bora ciyaŋo boŋ. A hamo ye ka kaa sanda hay-taji ham cine, kal a hanan.
15He 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.”
15 A ye ka kaa Irikoy bora do, nga nda nga jama kulu. A kaa ka kay a jine ka ne: «Guna, sohõ ay bay kaŋ Irikoy fo si no ndunnya kulu ra kala Israyla ra. Sohõ mo, ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ni ma albarka wo ta ay, ni bannya do.»
16But he said, “As Yahweh lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none.” He urged him to take it; but he refused.
16 Amma Iliyasu ne: «Ay ze da Rabbi fundikoono, nga kaŋ jine ay go ga kay, ay si hay kulu ta.» Naaman n'a faali a ma ta, amma a wangu.
17Naaman said, “If not, then, please let two mules’ burden 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 Yahweh.
17 Naaman ne: «Da manti yaadin no, ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ni ma yadda i ma ay, ni bannya no laabu, alambaana hinka jaraw wane. Zama ne jine ay, ni bannya, ay si filla ka sargay kaŋ i ga ton wala sargay kulu te de-koy* fooyaŋ se koyne, kala Rabbi se.
18In this thing may Yahweh 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 Yahweh pardon your servant in this thing.”
18 Hari woone wo hinne ra day, Rabbi ma ay, ni bannya yaafa, alwaati kaŋ ay jine bora ga furo Rimmon fuwo ra zama nga ma sombu a se nango din ra, a ga jeeri mo ay kamba gaa, ay mo y'ay boŋ sumbal Rimmon diina fuwo ra. Alwaati kaŋ ay n'ay boŋ sumbal Rimmon fuwo ra, Rabbi ma ay, ni bannya, yaafa haya din kulu ra.»
19He said to him, “Go in peace.” So he departed from him a little way.
19 Iliyasu ne a se: «Koy baani.» Kal a fay d'a, a mana baa mooru.
20But 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 Yahweh lives, I will run after him, and take something from him.”
20 Amma Irikoy bora Iliyasu zanka Gehazi ne: «Guna, ay jine bora dogonandi Naaman Suriyanca wo se. A mana ta hayey kaŋ a kande a do. Ay ze da Rabbi fundikoono, ay g'a gana nda zuray, ya hay fo ta a gaa.»
21So 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?”
21 Gehazi binde na Naaman gana. Alwaato kaŋ Naaman di boro fo go ga nga gana nda zuray, a zumbu nga torka boŋ zama nga m'a kubay. A ne: «D'a ta day, baani no?»
22He 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.’”
22 Gehazi ne: «Baani samay. Ay windikoyo no k'ay donton. Zama sohõ-sohõ no Ifraymu tondey laabu alborayze hinka kaa ay do, annabi izeyaŋ no. Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, m'i no nzarfu kilo waytaaci cindi gu cine, da kwaay hinka.»
23Naaman 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.
23 Naaman ne: «Haba? Ma sambu kilo wayga.» A n'a faali. A na nzarfu kilo wayga haw foolo hinka ra, da kwaay hinka, ka dake nga bannya hinka se. I n'i sambu ka furo jina nd'ey.
24When 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.
24 Alwaato kaŋ i to tudo boŋ, Gehazi n'i ta i kambey ra. A n'i jisi fu ra ka borey sallama, i dira.
25But he went in, and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, “Where did you come from, Gehazi?” He said, “Your servant went nowhere.”
25 Amma nga din furo ka kay nga windikoyo jine. Iliyasu ne a se: «Gehazi, man no ni fun?» A ne a se: «Ni zanka mana koy naŋ kulu.»
26He said to him, “Didn’t 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?
26 Iliyasu ne a se: «Ay bina, manti ni banda no a go alwaato kaŋ bora bare nga torka ra zama nga ma ni kubay? Mate no, nooru tayaŋ alwaati no, wala bankaaray, wala zeytun* kali, wala reyzin* wane, wala feejiyaŋ wala hawyaŋ wala bannyayaŋ, wala koŋŋayaŋ?
27Therefore the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and to your seed forever.” He went out from his presence a leper, as white as snow.
27 To. Naaman jiraytara wo ga naagu ni gaa kal a ma koy ni banda gaa hal abada.» Gehazi fun taray a jine mo da jiraytaray, a ga kwaaray wak, sanda neezu* cine.
