2 Kings 5:5-7
5Then the king of Aram said, “Go 1now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” He departed and 2took with him ten talents of silver and six thousand shekels of gold and ten 3changes of clothes.
6He brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, “And now as this letter comes to you, behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may cure him of his leprosy.” 7When the king of Israel read the letter, 4he tore his clothes and said, “5Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man is sending word to me to cure a man of his leprosy? But 6consider now, and see how he is seeking 7a quarrel against me.”
