2 Kings 5:15-18

15When he returned to the man of God 1with all his company, and came and stood before him, he said, “Behold now, 2I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel; so please 3take a 4present from your servant now.”

16But he said, “5As the Lord lives, before whom I stand, 6I will take nothing.” And he urged him to take it, but he refused.

17Naaman said, “If not, please let your servant at least be given two mules’ load of 7earth; for your servant will no longer offer burnt offering nor will he sacrifice to other gods, but to the Lord.

18In this matter may the Lord pardon your servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and 8he leans on my hand and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, when I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, the Lord pardon your servant in this matter.”
