2 Rois 5:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 5:4

And one went in and told his lord
What the girl had said to her mistress; one of the servants of the house that overheard it; or rather, Naaman went and told his lord the king of Syria; for as this was said to his wife, no doubt she told it to her husband, and not a servant; and the following words require this sense, and is the sense of most Jewish commentators:

saying, thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel;
who for her wit and beauty might be well known at court by the name of the Israelitish girl.

2 Rois 5:4 In-Context

2 Et quelques troupes étaient sorties de Syrie et avaient emmené prisonnière une petite fille du pays d'Israël, et elle servait la femme de Naaman.
3 Et elle dit à sa maîtresse: Oh! si mon seigneur était devant le prophète qui est à Samarie! Il le guérirait aussitôt de sa lèpre.
4 Naaman vint donc le rapporter à son seigneur, et lui dit: La jeune fille du pays d'Israël a dit telle et telle chose.
5 Et le roi de Syrie dit: Pars, va, et j'enverrai une lettre au roi d'Israël. Et il partit, prenant en sa main dix talents d'argent, six mille pièces d'or, et dix robes de rechange.
6 Et il porta au roi d'Israël la lettre, qui disait: Dès que cette lettre te sera parvenue, tu sauras que je t'ai envoyé Naaman, mon serviteur, afin que tu le guérisses de sa lèpre.
