    1 Naaman, the commander of the army of the king of Aram, was a great man in his master's sight and highly regarded, because through him the Lord had given victory to Aram. He was a valiant warrior, but he had leprosy.

    2 One day, Aram's raiding parties went out and captured a young girl from the land of Israel, and she became a servant to Naaman's wife.

    3 She said to her mistress, 'If only my master would go to see the prophet in Samaria! He would cure him of his leprosy.'

    4 Naaman went and told his master, saying, 'This is what the girl from the land of Israel said.'

    5 The king of Aram said, 'Go, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.' So Naaman left, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten sets of clothes.

    6 He brought the letter to the king of Israel, which read: 'Now, when this letter reaches you, know that I have sent you my servant Naaman, so that you may cure him of his leprosy.'

    7 When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, 'Am I God, able to kill and bring to life, that this man sends someone to me to cure him of his leprosy? See for yourselves that he is seeking a quarrel with me!'

    8 When Elisha, the man of God, heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent the king this message: 'Why have you torn your clothes? Let Naaman come to me, and he will know that there is a prophet in Israel.'

    9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha’s house.
