2 Kings 5:20-24

20But 1Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, 2thought, “Behold, my master has spared this Naaman the Aramean, 3by not accepting from his hand what he brought. 4As the Lord lives, I will run after him and take something from him.”

21So Gehazi pursued Naaman. When Naaman saw someone running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him and said, “Is everything well?”

22And he said, “5Everything is well. My master has sent me, saying, ‘Behold, just now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from 6the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and 7two changes of clothes.’”

23Naaman said, “8Be sure to take two talents.” And he urged him, and tied up two talents of silver in two bags with two changes of clothes, and gave them to two of his servants; and they carried them before him.

24When he came to the 9hill, he took them from their hand and 10deposited them in the house, and he sent the men away, and they departed.
