7 Tendo o rei de Israel lido a carta, rasgou as suas vestes, e disse: Sou eu Deus, que possa matar e vivificar, para que este envie a mim um homem a fim de que eu o cure da sua lepra? Notai, peço-vos, e vede como ele anda buscando ocasião contra mim.
7
As soon as the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his robes and said, “Am I God? Can I kill and bring back to life? Why does this fellow send someone to me to be cured of his leprosy? See how he is trying to pick a quarrel with me!”
