2 Kings 5

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
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.	1 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.
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.	2 Εξηλθον δε οι Συριοι κατα ταγματα και εφερον αιχμαλωτον εκ της γης του Ισραηλ μικραν τινα κορην? και υπηρετει την γυναικα του Νεεμαν.
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.	3 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.
4 Then Naaman went in to his lord, and told him, saying: Thus and thus said tile girl from the land of Israel.	4 Και εισελθων ο Νεεμαν απηγγειλε προς τον κυριον αυτου, λεγων, Ουτω και ουτως ελαλησεν η κορη η εκ της γης του Ισραηλ.
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,	5 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?
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.	6 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.
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.	7 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.
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.	8 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.
9 So Naaman came with Iris horses and chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Eliseus:	9 Τοτε ηλθεν ο Νεεμαν μετα των ιππων αυτου και μετα της αμαξης αυτου, και εσταθη εις την θυραν της οικιας του Ελισσαιε.
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.	10 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.
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.	11 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?
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,	12 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.
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?	13 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;
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.	14 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.
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.	15 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.
16 But he answered: As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And when he pressed him, he still refused.	16 Ο δε ειπε, Ζη Κυριος, ενωπιον του οποιον παρισταμαι, δεν θελω δεχθη. Ο δε εβιαζεν αυτον να δεχθη, αλλα δεν εστερξε.
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.	17 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?
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.	18 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
19 And he said to him: Go in peace. So he departed from him in the springtime of the earth.	19 Και ειπε προς αυτον, Υπαγε εν ειρηνη. Και ανεχωρησεν απ' αυτου μικρον τι διαστημα.
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:	20 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.
21 ,21And 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?	21 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;
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.	22 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.
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.	23 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.
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.	24 Και οτε ηλθεν εις Οφηλ, ελαβεν αυτα εκ των χειρων αυτων και εφυλαξεν εν τω οικω? και απελυσε τους ανδρας, και ανεχωρησαν.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Eliseus said: Whence comest thou, Giezi? He answered: Thy servant went no whither.	25 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.
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.	26 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;
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.	27 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.
