1 Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master and in high esteem because by him the Lord had given salvation unto Syria; he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.
2 And the Syrians had gone out by companies and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid, and she waited on Naaman’s wife.
3 And she said unto her mistress, If my lord would ask the prophet that is in Samaria, he would remove his leprosy.
4 And Naaman went in and told his lord, saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.
5 And the king of Syria said, Go, depart, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.
