21 Et Guéhazi courut après Naaman. Naaman, le voyant courir après lui, descendit de son char pour aller à sa rencontre, et dit: Tout va-t-il bien?

22 Il répondit: Tout va bien. Mon maître m’envoie te dire: Voici, il vient d’arriver chez moi deux jeunes gens de la montagne d’Éphraïm, d’entre les fils des prophètes; donne pour eux, je te prie, un talent d’argent et deux vêtements de rechange.

23 Naaman dit: Consens à prendre deux talents. Il le pressa, et il serra deux talents d’argent dans deux sacs, donna deux habits de rechange, et les fit porter devant Guéhazi par deux de ses serviteurs.

24 Arrivé à la colline, Guéhazi les prit de leurs mains et les déposa dans la maison, et il renvoya ces gens qui partirent.

25 Puis il alla se présenter à son maître. Élisée lui dit: D’où viens-tu, Guéhazi? Il répondit: Ton serviteur n’est allé ni d’un côté ni d’un autre.
