2 Kings 5:20

Elisha's Greedy Servant Gehazi

¹⁹ He said to him, "Go in peace." So he departed from him a little way. ²⁰ But Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, "Behold, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought. As Yahweh lives, I will run after him, and take something from him." ²¹ So Gehazi followed after Naaman. When Naaman saw one running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him, and said, "Is all well?"
