2 Kings 5:18-20

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁸ May the Lord forgive me when my master goes to the temple of Rimmon to worship, leans on my arm, and I have to bow down in the temple of Rimmon. When I do this, may the Lord forgive me for this one thing.”

¹⁹ Elisha told Naaman, “Go in peace.”

After Elisha had left him and gone some distance, ²⁰ Gehazi, the servant of Elisha (the man of God), thought, “My master let this Aramean Naaman go without accepting what he had brought. As sure as the Lord lives, I’ll run after Naaman and get something from him.”
