II Kings 5

Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.

Ο δε Νεεμαν, ο στρατηγος του βασιλεως της Συριας, ητο ανηρ μεγας ενωπιον του κυριου αυτου και τιμωμενος, επειδη ο Κυριος δι αυτου εδωκε σωτηριαν εις την Συριαν και ο ανθρωπος ητο δυνατος εν ισχυι, λεπρος ομως.

And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife.

Εξηλθον δε οι Συριοι κατα ταγματα και εφερον αιχμαλωτον εκ της γης του Ισραηλ μικραν τινα κορην και υπηρετει την γυναικα του Νεεμαν.

And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.

Και ειπε προς την κυριαν αυτης, Ειθε να ητο ο κυριος μου εμπροσθεν του προφητου του εν Σαμαρεια, διοτι ηθελεν ιατρευσει αυτον απο της λεπρας αυτου.

And one went in, and told his lord, saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.

Και εισελθων ο Νεεμαν απηγγειλε προς τον κυριον αυτου, λεγων, Ουτω και ουτως ελαλησεν η κορη η εκ της γης του Ισραηλ.

And the king of Syria said, Go to, go, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.

Και ειπεν ο βασιλευς της Συριας, Ελθε, υπαγε, και θελω στειλει επιστολην προς τον βασιλεα του Ισραηλ. Και ανεχωρησε και ελαβεν εν τη χειρι αυτου δεκα ταλαντα αργυριου και εξ χιλιαδας χρυσους και δεκα αλλαγας ενδυματων

And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, Now when this letter is come unto thee, behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy.

Και εφερε την επιστολην προς τον βασιλεα του Ισραηλ, λεγουσαν, Και τωρα καθως ελθη επιστολη αυτη προς σε, ιδου, εστειλα προς σε Νεεμαν τον δουλον μου, δια να ιατρευσης αυτον απο της λεπρας αυτου.

And it came to pass, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his clothes, and said, Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man doth send unto me to recover a man of his leprosy? wherefore consider, I pray you, and see how he seeketh a quarrel against me.

Και καθως ανεγνωσεν ο βασιλευς του Ισραηλ την επιστολην, διεσχισε τα ιματια αυτου, και ειπε, Θεος ειμαι εγω, δια να θανατονω και να ζωοποιω, ωστε ουτος στελλει προς εμε να ιατρευσω ανθρωπον απο της λεπρας αυτου; γνωρισατε λοιπον, παρακαλω, και ιδετε οτι ουτος ζητει προφασιν εναντιον μου.

And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.

Ως δε ηκουσεν ο Ελισσαιε, ο ανθρωπος του Θεου, οτι ο βασιλευς του Ισραηλ διεσχισε τα ιματια αυτου, απεστειλε προς τον βασιλεα, λεγων, Δια τι διεσχισας τα ιματια σου; ας ελθη τωρα προς εμε, και θελει γνωρισει οτι ειναι προφητης εν τω Ισραηλ.

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

Τοτε ηλθεν ο Νεεμαν μετα των ιππων αυτου και μετα της αμαξης αυτου, και εσταθη εις την θυραν της οικιας του Ελισσαιε.

And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.

Και απεστειλε προς αυτον ο Ελισσαιε μηνυτην, λεγων, Υπαγε και λουσθητι επτακις εν τω Ιορδανη, και θελει επανελθει η σαρξ σου εις σε, και θελεις καθαρισθη.

But Naaman was wroth, 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 strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.

Ο δε Νεεμαν εθυμωθη και ανεχωρησε και ειπεν, Ιδου, εγω ελεγον, Θελει βεβαιως εξελθει προς εμε και θελει σταθη και επικαλεσθη το ονομα Κυριου του Θεου αυτου, και διακινησει την χειρα αυτου επι τον τοπον και ιατρευσει τον λεπρον

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

ο Αβανα και ο Φαρφαρ, ποταμοι της Δαμασκου, δεν ειναι καλητεροι υπερ παντα τα υδατα του Ισραηλ; δεν ηδυναμην να λουσθω εν αυτοις και να καθαρισθω; Και στραφεις, ανεχωρησε μετα θυμου.

And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?

Επλησιασαν δε οι δουλοι αυτου και ελαλησαν προς αυτον και ειπον Πατερ μου, εαν ο προφητης ηθελε σοι ειπει μεγα πραγμα, δεν ηθελες καμει αυτο; ποσω μαλλον τωρα, οταν σοι λεγη, Λουσθητι και καθαρισθητι;

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

Τοτε κατεβη και εβυθισθη επτακις εις τον Ιορδανην, κατα τον λογον του ανθρωπου του Θεου και η σαρξ αυτου αποκατεστη ως σαρξ παιδιου μικρου, και εκαθαρισθη.

And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.

Και επεστρεψε προς τον ανθρωπον του Θεου, αυτος και πασα η συνοδια αυτου, και ηλθε και εσταθη εμπροσθεν αυτου και ειπεν, Ιδου, τωρα εγνωρισα οτι δεν ειναι Θεος εν παση τη γη, ειμη εν τω Ισραηλ οθεν τωρα δεχθητι, παρακαλω, δωρον παρα του δουλου σου.

But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.

Ο δε ειπε, Ζη Κυριος, ενωπιον του οποιον παρισταμαι, δεν θελω δεχθη. Ο δε εβιαζεν αυτον να δεχθη, αλλα δεν εστερξε.

And Naaman said, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules' burden of earth? for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the LORD.

Και ειπεν ο Νεεμαν, Και αν μη, ας δοθη, παρακαλω, εις τον δουλον σου δυο ημιονων φορτιον εκ του χωματος τουτου, διοτι ο δουλος σου δεν θελει προσφερει εις το εξης ολοκαυτωμα ουδε θυσιαν εις αλλους θεους, παρα μονον εις τον Κυριον

In this thing the LORD pardon thy servant, that when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leaneth on my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon: when I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon, the LORD pardon thy servant in this thing.

περι τουτου του πραγματος ας συγχωρηση ο Κυριος τον δουλον σου, οτι, οταν εισερχηται ο κυριος μου εις τον οικον του Ριμμων δια να προσκυνηση εκει, και στηριζηται επι την χειρα μου, και εγω κλινω εμαυτον εν τω οικω του Ριμμων, ενω κλινω εμαυτον εν τω οικω του Ριμμων, ο Κυριος ας συγχωρηση τον δουλον σου περι του πραγματος τουτου

And he said unto him, Go in peace. So he departed from him a little way.

Και ειπε προς αυτον, Υπαγε εν ειρηνη. Και ανεχωρησεν απ αυτου μικρον τι διαστημα.

But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.

Ειπε δε ο Γιεζει, ο υπηρετης του Ελισσαιε του ανθρωπου του Θεου, Ιδου, εφεισθη ο κυριος μου του Νεεμαν τουτου του Συριου, ωστε να μη λαβη εκ της χειρος αυτου εκεινο το οποιον εφερε πλην, ζη Κυριος, εγω θελω τρεξει κατοπιν αυτου και θελω λαβει τι παρ αυτου.

So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?

Και ετρεξεν ο Γιεζει κατοπιν του Νεεμαν. Και οτε ειδεν αυτον ο Νεεμαν τρεχοντα κατοπιν αυτου, επηδησεν εκ της αμαξης εις συναντησιν αυτου και ειπε, Καλως εχετε;

And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.

Ο δε ειπε, Καλως ο κυριος μου με απεστειλε, λεγων, Ιδου, ταυτην την ωραν ηλθον προς εμε, εκ του ορους Εφραιμ, δυο νεοι εκ των υιων των προφητων δος εις αυτους, παρακαλω, εν ταλαντον αργυριου και δυο αλλαγας ενδυματων.

And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.

Και ειπεν ο Νεεμαν, Λαβε ευχαριστως δυο ταλαντα. Και εβιασεν αυτον, και εδωσε τα δυο ταλαντα του αργυριου εις δυο θυλακια, μετα δυο αλλαγων ενδυματων και επεθεσεν αυτα εις δυο εκ των δουλων αυτου, και εβασταζον αυτα εμπροσθεν αυτου.

And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.

Και οτε ηλθεν εις Οφηλ, ελαβεν αυτα εκ των χειρων αυτων και εφυλαξεν εν τω οικω και απελυσε τους ανδρας, και ανεχωρησαν.

But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.

Αυτος δε εισηλθε και εσταθη εμπροσθεν του κυριου αυτου. Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Ελισσαιε, Ποθεν, Γιεζει; Ο δε ειπεν, Ο δουλος σου δεν υπηγε πουποτε.

And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?

Και ειπε προς αυτον, Δεν υπηγεν η καρδια μου μετα σου, οτε ο ανθρωπος επεστρεψεν απο της αμαξης αυτου εις συναντησιν σου; ειναι καιρος να λαβης αργυριον και να λαβης ιματια και ελαιωνας και αμπελωνας και προβατα και βοας και δουλους και δουλας;

The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.

δια τουτο η λεπρα του Νεεμαν θελει κολληθη εις σε και εις το σπερμα σου εις τον αιωνα. Και εξηλθεν απ εμπροσθεν αυτου λελεπρωμενος ως χιων.
