2 Kings

2 Kings 5:2–4

2At this time the Arameans had gone out in bands and had taken a young girl from the land of Israel, and she was serving Naaman’s wife. 3She said to her mistress, “If only my master would go to the prophet who is in Samaria, he would cure him of his leprosy.”

4And Naaman went and told his master what the girl from the land of Israel had said.
