ગુજરાતી2 રાજાઓ ૫:૧૧
પણ નામાને ગુસ્સે થઈને કહ્યું કે, “હું તો વિચારતો હતો કે, તે બહાર આવીને મારી પાસે ઊભો રહીને પોતાના ઈશ્વર યહોવાહને વિનંતી કરશે. અને મારા શરીર પર પોતાનો હાથ ફેરવશે અને મારો કુષ્ઠ રોગ મટી જશે.
हिन्दी2 राजाओं ५:११
परन्तु नामान क्रोधित हो यह कहता हुआ चला गया, “मैंने तो सोचा था, कि अवश्य वह मेरे पास बाहर आएगा, और खड़ा होकर अपने परमेश्वर यहोवा से प्रार्थना करके कोढ़ के स्थान पर अपना हाथ फेरकर कोढ़ को दूर करेगा!

In context

9So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.

10Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again to you, and you shall be clean.”

11But Naaman was angry, 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 wave his hand over the place, and heal the leper.’

12Aren’t Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn’t I wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage.

13His servants came near and spoke to him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had asked you do some great thing, wouldn’t you have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?”
