Gehazi’s Greed

²⁰ But ^(A)Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Look, my master has spared Naaman this Syrian, while not receiving from his hands what he brought; but as the Lord lives, I will run after him and take something from him.” ²¹ So Gehazi pursued Naaman. When Naaman saw him running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him, and said, “Is all well?”

²² And he said, “All is ^(B)well. My master has sent me, saying, ‘Indeed, just now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the mountains of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of garments.’ ”

²³ So Naaman said, “Please, take two talents.” And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and handed them to two of his servants; and they carried them on ahead of him. ²⁴ When he came to ^[a]the citadel, he took them from their hand, and stored them away in the house; then he let the men go, and they departed.

⁷ And there was ^(A)strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. ^(B)The Canaanites and the Perizzites then dwelt in the land.
