2 Kings 5:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 And when he came to the [a]tower, he took them out of their hands, and laid them in the house, and sent away the men: and [b]they departed.
25 ¶ Then he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.
26 But he said unto him, [c]Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is this a time to take money, and to receive garments, [d]and olives, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?
