Now NaamanH5283, captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, was a greatH1419 manH376 withH6440 his masterH113, and honourableH5375, because by him the LORDH3068 had givenH5414 deliveranceH8668 unto SyriaH758: he was also a mightyH1368 manH376 in valourH2428, but he was a leperH6879. {with: Heb. before. honourable: or, gracious: Heb. lifted up, or, accepted in countenance. deliverance: or, victory}
And the SyriansH758 had gone outH3318 by companiesH1416, and had brought away captiveH7617 out of the landH776 of IsraelH3478 a littleH6996 maidH5291; and she waited onH6440 Naaman'sH5283 wifeH802. {waited…: Heb. was before}
And she saidH559 unto her mistressH1404, WouldH305 God my lordH113 were withH6440 the prophetH5030 that is in SamariaH8111! forH227 he would recoverH622 him of his leprosyH6883. {with: Heb. before} {recover: Heb. gather in}
And one went inH935, and toldH5046 his lordH113, sayingH559, Thus and thus saidH1696 the maidH5291 that is of the landH776 of IsraelH3478.
And the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 saidH559, Go toH3212, goH935, and I will sendH7971 a letterH5612 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. And he departedH3212, and tookH3947 with himH3027 tenH6235 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and sixH8337 thousandH505 pieces of goldH2091, and tenH6235 changesH2487 of raimentH899. {with…: Heb. in his hand}
And he broughtH935 the letterH5612 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Now when this letterH5612 is comeH935 unto thee, behold, I have therewith sentH7971 NaamanH5283 my servantH5650 to thee, that thou mayest recoverH622 him of his leprosyH6883.
And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had readH7121 the letterH5612, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899, and saidH559, Am I GodH430, to killH4191 and to make aliveH2421, that this manH2088 doth sendH7971 unto me to recoverH622 a manH376 of his leprosyH6883? whereforeH389 considerH3045, I pray you, and seeH7200 how he seeketh a quarrelH579 against me.
And it was so, when ElishaH477 the manH376 of GodH430 had heardH8085 that the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had rentH7167 his clothesH899, that he sentH7971 to the kingH4428, sayingH559, Wherefore hast thou rentH7167 thy clothesH899? let him comeH935 now to me, and he shall knowH3045 that there isH3426 a prophetH5030 in IsraelH3478.
So NaamanH5283 cameH935 with his horsesH5483 and with his chariotH7393, and stoodH5975 at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004 of ElishaH477.
And ElishaH477 sentH7971 a messengerH4397 unto him, sayingH559, GoH1980 and washH7364 in JordanH3383 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and thy fleshH1320 shall come againH7725 to thee, and thou shalt be cleanH2891.
But NaamanH5283 was wrothH7107, and went awayH3212, and saidH559, Behold, I thoughtH559, He will surelyH3318 come outH3318 to me, and standH5975, and callH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and strikeH5130 his handH3027 over the placeH4725, and recoverH622 the leperH6879. {I thought: Heb. I said. or, I said with my self, He will surely come out, etc.} {strike: Heb. move up and down}
Are not AbanaH71+H549 and PharparH6554, riversH5104 of DamascusH1834, betterH2896 than all the watersH4325 of IsraelH3478? may I not washH7364 in them, and be cleanH2891? So he turnedH6437 and went awayH3212 in a rageH2534. {Abana: or, Amana}
And his servantsH5650 came nearH5066, and spakeH1696 unto him, and saidH559, My fatherH1, if the prophetH5030 had bidH1696 thee do some greatH1419 thingH1697, wouldest thou not have doneH6213 it? how much rather thenH637, when he saithH559 to thee, WashH7364, and be cleanH2891?
Then went he downH3381, and dippedH2881 himself sevenH7651 timesH6471 in JordanH3383, according to the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430: and his fleshH1320 came againH7725 like unto the fleshH1320 of a littleH6996 childH5288, and he was cleanH2891.
And he returnedH7725 to the manH376 of GodH430, he and all his companyH4264, and cameH935, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him: and he saidH559, Behold, now I knowH3045 that there is no GodH430 in all the earthH776, but in IsraelH3478: now therefore, I pray thee, takeH3947 a blessingH1293 of thy servantH5650.
But he saidH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, beforeH6440 whom I standH5975, I will receiveH3947 none. And he urgedH6484 him to takeH3947 it; but he refusedH3985.
And NaamanH5283 saidH559, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be givenH5414 to thy servantH5650 twoH6776 mules'H6505 burdenH4853 of earthH127? for thy servantH5650 will henceforth offerH6213 neither burnt offeringH5930 nor sacrificeH2077 unto otherH312 godsH430, but unto the LORDH3068.
In this thingH1697 the LORDH3068 pardonH5545 thy servantH5650, that when my masterH113 goethH935 into the houseH1004 of RimmonH7417 to worshipH7812 there, and he leanethH8172 on my handH3027, and I bowH7812 myself in the houseH1004 of RimmonH7417: when I bow downH7812 myself in the houseH1004 of RimmonH7417, the LORDH3068 pardonH5545 thy servantH5650 in this thingH1697.
And he saidH559 unto him, GoH3212 in peaceH7965. So he departedH3212 from him a littleH3530 wayH776. {a little…: Heb. a little piece of ground}
But GehaziH1522, the servantH5288 of ElishaH477 the manH376 of GodH430, saidH559, Behold, my masterH113 hath sparedH2820 NaamanH5283 this SyrianH761, in not receivingH3947 at his handsH3027 that which he broughtH935: but, as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, I will runH7323 afterH310 him, and takeH3947 somewhatH3972 of him.
So GehaziH1522 followedH7291 afterH310 NaamanH5283. And when NaamanH5283 sawH7200 him runningH7323 afterH310 him, he lighted downH5307 from the chariotH4818 to meetH7125 him, and saidH559, Is all wellH7965? {Is…: Heb. Is there peace?}
And he saidH559, All is wellH7965. My masterH113 hath sentH7971 me, sayingH559, Behold, even now there be comeH935 to me from mountH2022 EphraimH669 twoH8147 young menH5288 of the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030: giveH5414 them, I pray thee, a talentH3603 of silverH3701, and twoH8147 changesH2487 of garmentsH899.
And NaamanH5283 saidH559, Be contentH2974, takeH3947 two talentsH3603. And he urgedH6555 him, and boundH6696 twoH8147 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 in twoH8147 bagsH2754, with twoH8147 changesH2487 of garmentsH899, and laidH5414 them upon twoH8147 of his servantsH5288; and they bareH5375 them beforeH6440 him.
And when he cameH935 to the towerH6076, he tookH3947 them from their handH3027, and bestowedH6485 them in the houseH1004: and he let the menH582 goH7971, and they departedH3212. {tower: or, secret place}
But he went inH935, and stoodH5975 before his masterH113. And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto him, WhenceH370 comest thou, GehaziH1522? And he saidH559, Thy servantH5650 wentH1980 no whitherH575. {no whither: Heb. not hither or thither}
And he saidH559 unto him, WentH1980 not mine heartH3820 with thee, when the manH376 turnedH2015 again from his chariotH4818 to meetH7125 thee? Is it a timeH6256 to receiveH3947 moneyH3701, and to receiveH3947 garmentsH899, and oliveyardsH2132, and vineyardsH3754, and sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198?
The leprosyH6883 therefore of NaamanH5283 shall cleaveH1692 unto thee, and unto thy seedH2233 for everH5769. And he went outH3318 from his presenceH6440 a leperH6879 as white as snowH7950.

And she saidH559 unto her mistressH1404, WouldH305 God my lordH113 were withH6440 the prophetH5030 that is in SamariaH8111! forH227 he would recoverH622 him of his leprosyH6883. {with: Heb. before} {recover: Heb. gather in}
And ElishaH477 sawH7200 it, and he criedH6817, My fatherH1, my fatherH1, the chariotH7393 of IsraelH3478, and the horsemenH6571 thereof. And he sawH7200 him no more: and he took holdH2388 of his own clothesH899, and rentH7167 them in twoH8147 piecesH7168.
ForG1063 afterG1894 that inG1722 the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316 the worldG2889 byG1223 wisdomG4678 knewG1097 notG3756 GodG2316, it pleasedG2106 GodG2316 byG1223 the foolishnessG3472 of preachingG2782 to saveG4982 them that believeG4100.

But oneH259 of the young menH5288 toldH5046 AbigailH26, Nabal'sH5037 wifeH802, sayingH559, Behold, DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 out of the wildernessH4057 to saluteH1288 our masterH113; and he railedH5860 on them. {railed…: Heb. flew upon them}
But the menH582 were veryH3966 goodH2896 unto us, and we were not hurtH3637, neither missedH6485 we any thingH3972, as long asH3117 we were conversantH1980 with them, when we were in the fieldsH7704: {hurt: Heb. shamed}
They were a wallH2346 unto us both by nightH3915 and dayH3119, all the whileH3117 we were with them keepingH7462 the sheepH6629.
Now therefore knowH3045 and considerH7200 what thou wilt doH6213; for evilH7451 is determinedH3615 against our masterH113, and against all his householdH1004: for he is such a sonH1121 of BelialH1100, that a man cannot speakH1696 to him.
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, when he sawH7200 them, My fatherH1, shall I smiteH5221 them? shall I smiteH5221 them?
ButG235 GodG2316 hath chosenG1586 the foolish thingsG3474 of the worldG2889 toG2443 confoundG2617 the wiseG4680; andG2532 GodG2316 hath chosenG1586 the weak thingsG772 of the worldG2889 toG2443 confoundG2617 the things which are mightyG2478;
And the servantsH5650 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 saidH559 unto him, Their godsH430 are godsH430 of the hillsH2022; therefore they were strongerH2388 than we; butH199 let us fightH3898 against them in the plainH4334, and surelyH3808 we shall be strongerH2388 than they.
Now ElishaH477 was fallen sickH2470 of his sicknessH2483 whereof he diedH4191. And JoashH3101 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 came downH3381 unto him, and weptH1058 over his faceH6440, and saidH559, O my fatherH1, my fatherH1, the chariotH7393 of IsraelH3478, and the horsemenH6571 thereof.
PurgeH2398 me with hyssopH231, and I shall be cleanH2891: washH3526 me, and I shall be whiterH3835 than snowH7950.
And his servantsH5650 saidH559 unto him, Behold now, we have heardH8085 that the kingsH4428 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are mercifulH2617 kingsH4428: let us, I pray thee, putH7760 sackclothH8242 on our loinsH4975, and ropesH2256 upon our headsH7218, and go outH3318 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478: peradventure he will saveH2421 thy lifeH5315.
And he made him to rideH7392 in the secondH4932 chariotH4818 which he had; and they criedH7121 before himH6440, Bow the kneeH86: and he madeH5414 him ruler over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {Bow…: or, Tender father: Heb. Abrech}
WashH7364 you, make you cleanH2135; put awayH5493 the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611 from beforeH5048 mine eyesH5869; ceaseH2308 to do evilH7489;
ButH403 there is a spiritH7307 in manH582: and the inspirationH5397 of the AlmightyH7706 giveth them understandingH995.
A sonH1121 honourethH3513 his fatherH1, and a servantH5650 his masterH113: if then I be a fatherH1, where is mine honourH3519? and if I be a masterH113, where is my fearH4172? saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 unto you, O priestsH3548, that despiseH959 my nameH8034.

PeterG4074 saithG3004 unto himG846, Thou shaltG3538 neverG1519+G165+G3364 washG3538 myG3450 feetG4228. JesusG2424 answeredG611 himG846, IfG3362 I washG3538 theeG4571 notG3362, thou hastG2192 noG3756 partG3313 withG3326 meG1700.
AndG2532 callG2564 noG3361 man yourG5216 fatherG3962 uponG1909 the earthG1093: forG1063 oneG1520 isG2076 yourG5216 FatherG3962, whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 nowG3568 whyG5101 tarriest thouG3195? ariseG450, and be baptizedG907, andG2532 wash awayG628 thyG4675 sinsG266, calling onG1941 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962.
Now when EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569, oneH376 of the eunuchsH5631 which was in the king'sH4428 houseH1004, heardH8085 that they had putH5414 JeremiahH3414 in the dungeonH953; the kingH4428 then sittingH3427 in the gateH8179 of BenjaminH1144;
EbedmelechH5663 went forthH3318 out of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and spakeH1696 to the kingH4428, sayingH559,
My lordH113 the kingH4428, these menH582 have done evilH7489 in all that they have doneH6213 to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, whom they have castH7993 into the dungeonH953; and he is like to dieH4191 forH6440 hungerH7458 in the placeH8478 where he is: for there is no more breadH3899 in the cityH5892. {he is like…: Heb. he will die}
Then the kingH4428 commandedH6680 EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569, sayingH559, TakeH3947 from hence thirtyH7970 menH582 with theeH3027, and take upH5927 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 out of the dungeonH953, before he dieH4191. {with thee: Heb. in thine hand}
ForG1063 thoughG1437 ye haveG2192 ten thousandG3463 instructorsG3807 inG1722 ChristG5547, yetG235 have ye notG3756 manyG4183 fathersG3962: forG1063 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 IG1473 have begottenG1080 youG5209 throughG1223 the gospelG2098.
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
NotG3756 byG1537 worksG2041 ofG1722 righteousnessG1343 whichG3739 weG2249 have doneG4160, butG235 according toG2596 hisG846 mercyG1656 he savedG4982 usG2248, byG1223 the washingG3067 of regenerationG3824, andG2532 renewingG342 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151;
Let us draw nearG4334 withG3326 a trueG228 heartG2588 inG1722 full assuranceG4136 of faithG4102, havingG4472 our heartsG2588 sprinkledG4472 fromG575 an evilG4190 conscienceG4893, andG2532 our bodiesG4983 washedG3068 with pureG2513 waterG5204.
The like figureG499 whereuntoG3739 even baptismG908 dothG4982 alsoG2532 nowG3568 saveG4982 usG2248 (notG3756 the putting awayG595 of the filthG4509 of the fleshG4561, butG235 the answerG1906 of a goodG18 conscienceG4893 towardG1519 GodG2316,) byG1223 the resurrectionG386 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
AndG2532 I saidG2046 unto himG846, SirG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492. AndG2532 he saidG2036 to meG3427, TheseG3778 are theyG1526 which cameG2064 out ofG1537 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, andG2532 have washedG4150 theirG846 robesG4749, andG2532 madeG3021 themG4749+G846 whiteG3021 inG1722 the bloodG129 of the LambG721.
