2 Kings 5:7

5:7 When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God? Can I kill or restore life? Why does he ask me to cure a man of his skin disease? ¹  Certainly you must see that he is looking for an excuse to fight me!” ² 

2 Kings 5:14

5:14 So he went down and dipped in the Jordan seven times, as the prophet had instructed. ³  His skin became as smooth as a young child’s ⁴  and he was healed.

[5:7]  ¹ tn Heb “Am I God, killing and restoring life, that this one sends to me to cure a man from his skin disease?” In the Hebrew text this is one lengthy rhetorical question, which has been divided up in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[5:7]  ² tn Heb “Indeed, know and see that he is seeking an occasion with respect to me.”

[5:14]  ³ tn Heb “according to the word of the man of God.”

[5:14]  ⁴ tn Heb “and his skin was restored, like the skin of a small child.”
