2 Kings 5:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 So the king of Aram said, “Go, I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” He went and took with him[a] ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten sets of clothing.
6 So he brought the letter of the king to Israel, saying, “Now, when this letter comes to you, I have just sent Naaman my servant to you that you may cure him from his skin disease.” 7 It happened that when the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God to cause death or to give life? This man is sending a man to me to cure his disease. Indeed! But know and see that he seeks an opportunity against me.”
