2 Kings 5:10-14
10ElishaH477 sentH7971 a messengerH4397 to him, sayingH559, “1GoH1980 and washH7364 in the JordanH3383 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and your fleshH1320 will be restoredH7725 to you and you will be cleanH2891.” 11But NaamanH5283 was furiousH7107 and wentH1980 away and saidH559, “BeholdH2009, I 2thoughtH559, ‘He will surelyH3318 comeH3318 out to me and standH5975 and callH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 his GodH430, and waveH5130 his handH3027 overH413 the placeH4725 and cureH622 the leperH6879.’ 12Are not 3AbanahH71 and PharparH6554, the riversH5104 of DamascusH1834, betterH2896 thanH4480 allH3605 the watersH4325 of IsraelH3478? Could I not washH7364 in them and be cleanH2891?” So he turnedH6437 and 4wentH1980 away in a rageH2534. 135Then his servantsH5650 cameH5066 nearH5066 and spokeH1696 to him and saidH559, “6My fatherH1, had the prophetH5030 toldH1696 you to do some greatH1419 thingH1697, would you not have doneH6213 it? HowH637 muchH637H3588 moreH637H3588 then, whenH3588 he saysH559 to you, ‘WashH7364, and be cleanH2891’?” 14So he wentH3381 downH3381 and dippedH2881 himself sevenH7651 timesH6471 in the JordanH3383, according to the wordH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430; and 7his fleshH1320 was restoredH7725 like the fleshH1320 of a littleH6996 childH5288 and 8he was cleanH2891.
