My master{H113} hath sent{H7971}{(H8804)} me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Behold, even now there be come{H935}{(H8804)} to me from mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669} two{H8147} young men{H5288} of the sons{H1121} of the prophets{H5030}: give{H5414}{(H8798)} them, I pray thee, a talent{H3603} of silver{H3701}, and two{H8147} changes{H2487} of garments{H899}. 23 And Naaman{H5283} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Be content{H2974}{(H8685)}, take{H3947}{(H8798)} two talents{H3603}. And he urged{H6555}{(H8799)} him, and bound{H6696}{(H8799)} two{H8147} talents{H3603} of silver{H3701} in two{H8147} bags{H2754}, with two{H8147} changes{H2487} of garments{H899}, and laid{H5414}{(H8799)} them upon two{H8147} of his servants{H5288}; and they bare{H5375}{(H8799)} them before{H6440} him. 24 And when he came{H935}{(H8799)} to the tower{H6076}, he took{H3947}{(H8799)} them from their hand{H3027}, and bestowed{H6485}{(H8799)} them in the house{H1004}: and he let the men{H582} go{H7971}{(H8762)}, and they departed{H3212}{(H8799)}. 25 But he went in{H935}{(H8802)}, and stood{H5975}{(H8799)} before his master{H113}. And Elisha{H477} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Whence{H370} comest thou, Gehazi{H1522}? And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thy servant{H5650} went{H1980}{(H8804)} no whither{H575}. 26 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Went{H1980}{(H8804)} not mine heart{H3820} with thee, when the man{H376} turned{H2015}{(H8804)} again from his chariot{H4818} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} thee? Is it a time{H6256} to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} money{H3701}, and to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} garments{H899}, and oliveyards{H2132}, and vineyards{H3754}, and sheep{H6629}, and oxen{H1241}, and menservants{H5650}, and maidservants{H8198}? 27 The leprosy{H6883} therefore of Naaman{H5283} shall cleave{H1692}{(H8799)} unto thee, and unto thy seed{H2233} for ever{H5769}. And he went out{H3318}{(H8799)} from his presence{H6440} a leper{H6879}{(H8794)} as white as snow{H7950}.
- Job 20:19-28 : 19 Because he hath oppressed{H7533}{(H8765)} and hath forsaken{H5800}{(H8804)} the poor{H1800}; because he hath violently taken away{H1497}{(H8804)} an house{H1004} which he builded{H1129}{(H8799)} not; 20 Surely he shall not feel{H3045}{(H8804)} quietness{H7961} in his belly{H990}, he shall not save{H4422}{(H8762)} of that which he desired{H2530}{(H8803)}. 21 There shall none of his meat{H400} be left{H8300}; therefore shall no man look{H2342}{(H8799)} for his goods{H2898}. 22 In the fulness{H4390}{(H8800)}{(H8675)}{H4390}{(H8763)} of his sufficiency{H5607} he shall be in straits{H3334}{(H8799)}: every hand{H3027} of the wicked{H6001} shall come{H935}{(H8799)} upon him. 23 When he is about to fill{H4390}{(H8763)} his belly{H990}, God shall cast{H7971}{(H8762)} the fury{H2740} of his wrath{H639} upon him, and shall rain{H4305}{(H8686)} it upon him while he is eating{H3894}. 24 He shall flee{H1272}{(H8799)} from the iron{H1270} weapon{H5402}, and the bow{H7198} of steel{H5154} shall strike him through{H2498}{(H8799)}. 25 It is drawn{H8025}{(H8804)}, and cometh out{H3318}{(H8799)} of the body{H1465}; yea, the glittering sword{H1300} cometh out{H1980}{(H8799)} of his gall{H4846}: terrors{H367} are upon him. 26 All darkness{H2822} shall be hid{H2934}{(H8803)} in his secret places{H6845}{(H8803)}: a fire{H784} not blown{H5301}{(H8795)} shall consume{H398}{(H8762)} him; it shall go ill{H3415}{(H8799)} with him that is left{H8300} in his tabernacle{H168}. 27 The heaven{H8064} shall reveal{H1540}{(H8762)} his iniquity{H5771}; and the earth{H776} shall rise up{H6965}{(H8693)} against him. 28 The increase{H2981} of his house{H1004} shall depart{H1540}{(H8799)}, and his goods shall flow away{H5064}{(H8737)} in the day{H3117} of his wrath{H639}.
- Ps 10:3-6 : 3 For the wicked{H7563} boasteth{H1984}{(H8765)} of his heart's{H5315} desire{H8378}, and blesseth{H1288}{(H8765)} the covetous{H1214}{(H8802)}, whom the LORD{H3068} abhorreth{H5006}{(H8765)}. 4 The wicked{H7563}, through the pride{H1363} of his countenance{H639}, will not seek{H1875}{(H8799)} after God: God{H430} is not in all his thoughts{H4209}. 5 His ways{H1870} are always{H6256} grievous{H2342}{(H8799)}; thy judgments{H4941} are far above{H4791} out of his sight: as for all his enemies{H6887}{(H8802)}, he puffeth{H6315}{(H8686)} at them. 6 He hath said{H559}{(H8804)} in his heart{H3820}, I shall not be moved{H4131}{(H8735)}: for I shall never{H1755}{H1755} be in adversity{H7451}.
- Ps 49:11 : 11 Their inward{H7130} thought is, that their houses{H1004} shall continue for ever{H5769}, and their dwelling{H4908} places to all{H1755} generations{H1755}; they call{H7121}{H8804)} their lands{H127} after their own names{H8034}.
- Ps 52:7 : 7 Lo, this is the man{H1397} that made{H7760}{H8799)} not God{H430} his strength{H4581}; but trusted{H982}{H8799)} in the abundance{H7230} of his riches{H6239}, and strengthened{H5810}{H8799)} himself in his wickedness{H1942}.
- Prov 18:11-12 : 11 The rich man's{H6223} wealth{H1952} is his strong{H5797} city{H7151}, and as an high{H7682}{(H8737)} wall{H2346} in his own conceit{H4906}. 12 Before{H6440} destruction{H7667} the heart{H3820} of man{H376} is haughty{H1361}{(H8799)}, and before{H6440} honour{H3519} is humility{H6038}.
- Isa 28:15 : 15 Because ye have said{H559}{(H8804)}, We have made{H3772}{(H8804)} a covenant{H1285} with death{H4194}, and with hell{H7585} are we{H6213}{(H8804)} at agreement{H2374}; when the overflowing{H7857}{(H8802)} scourge{H7752}{(H8675)}{H7885} shall pass through{H5674}{(H8799)}{(H8675)}{H5674}{(H8804)}, it shall not come{H935}{(H8799)} unto us: for we have made{H7760}{(H8804)} lies{H3577} our refuge{H4268}, and under falsehood{H8267} have we hid{H5641}{(H8738)} ourselves:
- Isa 47:7-9 : 7 And thou saidst{H559}{(H8799)}, I shall be a lady{H1404} for ever{H5769}: so that thou didst not lay{H7760}{(H8804)} these things to thy heart{H3820}, neither didst remember{H2142}{(H8804)} the latter end{H319} of it. 8 Therefore hear{H8085}{(H8798)} now this, thou that art given to pleasures{H5719}, that dwellest{H3427}{(H8802)} carelessly{H983}, that sayest{H559}{(H8802)} in thine heart{H3824}, I am, and none else{H657} beside me; I shall not sit{H3427}{(H8799)} as a widow{H490}, neither shall I know{H3045}{(H8799)} the loss of children{H7908}: 9 But these two{H8147} things shall come{H935}{(H8799)} to thee in a moment{H7281} in one{H259} day{H3117}, the loss of children{H7908}, and widowhood{H489}: they shall come{H935}{(H8804)} upon thee in their perfection{H8537} for the multitude{H7230} of thy sorceries{H3785}, and for the great{H3966} abundance{H6109} of thine enchantments{H2267}.
- Jer 22:13-19 : 13 Woe{H1945} unto him that buildeth{H1129}{(H8802)} his house{H1004} by{H3808} unrighteousness{H6664}, and his chambers{H5944} by wrong{H4941}; that useth his neighbour's{H7453} service{H5647}{(H8799)} without wages{H2600}, and giveth{H5414}{(H8799)} him not for his work{H6467}; 14 That saith{H559}{(H8802)}, I will build{H1129}{(H8799)} me a wide{H4060} house{H1004} and large{H7304}{(H8794)} chambers{H5944}, and cutteth him out{H7167}{(H8804)} windows{H2474}; and it is cieled{H5603}{(H8803)} with cedar{H730}, and painted{H4886}{(H8800)} with vermilion{H8350}. 15 Shalt thou reign{H4427}{(H8799)}, because thou closest{H8474}{(H8808)} thyself in cedar{H730}? did not thy father{H1} eat{H398}{(H8804)} and drink{H8354}{(H8804)}, and do{H6213}{(H8804)} judgment{H4941} and justice{H6666}, and then it was well{H2896} with him? 16 He judged{H1777}{(H8804)} the cause{H1779} of the poor{H6041} and needy{H34}; then it was well{H2896} with him: was not this to know{H1847} me? saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 17 But thine eyes{H5869} and thine heart{H3820} are not but for thy covetousness{H1215}, and for to shed{H8210}{(H8800)} innocent{H5355} blood{H1818}, and for oppression{H6233}, and for violence{H4835}, to do{H6213}{(H8800)} it. 18 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} concerning Jehoiakim{H3079} the son{H1121} of Josiah{H2977} king{H4428} of Judah{H3063}; They shall not lament{H5594}{(H8799)} for him, saying, Ah{H1945} my brother{H251}! or, Ah{H1945} sister{H269}! they shall not lament{H5594}{(H8799)} for him, saying, Ah{H1945} lord{H113}! or, Ah{H1945} his glory{H1935}! 19 He shall be buried{H6912}{(H8735)} with the burial{H6900} of an ass{H2543}, drawn{H5498}{(H8800)} and cast forth{H7993}{(H8687)} beyond{H1973} the gates{H8179} of Jerusalem{H3389}.
