2 Kings 5:22-27 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

22. “It’s all right, he replied. “My master sent me saying: ‘Behold, two young men of the sons of the prophets have just come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothes.’”

23. Naaman said, “Please, take two talents.” He even urged him, and packed two talents of silver in two bags with two changes of clothes, and gave them to two of his servants; and they carried them ahead of him.

24. Now when he arrived at the fortified hill, he took them from their hand and deposited them in the house, and let the men go, so they departed.

25. When he entered and stood before his master, Elisha asked him, “Where have you been, Gehazi?” So he replied, “Your servant has gone nowhere.”

26. Then Elisha said to him, “Didn’t my heart go, when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to accept money and accept clothes, or olive groves and vineyards, or sheep and oxen, or male and female servants?

27. Therefore, the tza'arat of Naaman will cling to you and to your offspring forever.” Then he went out from his presence with tza'arat as white as snow.
