Kings IV 5:17

17 And Naiman said, Well then, if not, let there be given to thy servant, I pray thee, the load yoke of mules; and thou shalt give me of the red earth: for henceforth thy servant will not offer whole-burnt-offering or sacrifice to other gods, but only to the Lord by this thing.

Kings IV 5:17 In-Context

15 And he and all his company returned to Elisaie, and he came and stood before him, and said, Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth, save only in Israel: and now receive a blessing of thy servant.

16 And Elisaie said, the Lord lives, before whom I stand, I will not take . And he pressed him to take : but he would not.

17 And Naiman said, Well then, if not, let there be given to thy servant, I pray thee, the load yoke of mules; and thou shalt give me of the red earth: for henceforth thy servant will not offer whole-burnt-offering or sacrifice to other gods, but only to the Lord by this thing.

18 And let the Lord be propitious to thy servant when my master goes into the house of Remman to worship there, and he shall lean on my hand, and I shall bow down in the house of Remman when he bows down in the house of Remman; even let the Lord, I pray, be merciful to thy servant in this matter.

19 And Elisaie said to Naiman, Go in peace. And he departed from him a little way.
