Doth send unto me
To recover a man
Of his leprosy?
Wherefore
Consider,
I pray you,
And see how he seeketh
A quarrel against me.'
And it was so,
When Elisha
The man of God
Had heard that the king
Of Israel
Had rent his clothes,
That he sent to the king,
Saying,
'Wherefore
Hast thou rent
Thy clothes?
Let him come now
To me,
And he shall know
That there is a prophet
In Israel.'
So Naaman came
With his horses
And with his chariot,
And stood at the door
Of the house of Elisha.
And Elisha
Sent a messenger
Unto him,
Saying,
'Go
And wash in Jordan
Seven times,
And thy flesh
Shall come again to thee,
And thou shalt be clean.'
But Naaman was wroth,
And went away,
And said,
'Behold,'
I thought,
'He will surely
Come out to me,
And stand,
And call on the name
Of the LORD his God,
And strike his hand
Over the place,
And recover the leper.
