Nokudaro kasikana kari kuudza mudzimai waNaamani kuti: ʼNdinoshuvakudai ishe wangu angaenda kunomuprofita waJehovha muna Israeri. Angamuporesa maperembudzi ake.ʼ Pashure murume wavahosi anoudzwa izvozvi.

Ikoku kunotsamwisa zvikuru Naamani, ndokuti: ʼNzizi dzokumusha dziri nani kukunda rwizi rwupi norwupi muna Israeri!ʼ Pashure pokutaura izvi, Naamani anoenda.

Asi mumwe wavabatiri vake anomuudza kuti: ʼIshe, dai Erisha akamuudzai kuita chimwe chinhu chikukutu, hamungachiiti here? Ko zvino huregerereiko kungoshamba henyu, sezvaataura?ʼ Naamani anoterera mubatiri wake ndokundozvinyudza amene muRwizi rweJoridhani kanomwe. Paanoshamba, nyama yake inova yakasimba neyakagwinya!

Zvino, ndapota, tora chipo ichi kwandiri.ʼ Asi Erisha anoti: ʼAiwa, handingachitori.ʼ Erisha anoziva kuti kungava kwakaipa kuti atore chipo, nokuti ndiJehovha akanga amuporesa. Asi mubatiri waErisha Gehazi anoda chipocho iye amene.

Apo Gehazi anodzokera kumba, Erisha anoziva chaaita. Jehovha amuudza. Zvino anoti: ʼNokuti waita chinhu ichi chakashata, maperembudzi aNaamani achawira pauri.ʼ Uye anowirapo, pakarepo!

Kechipiri, hatifaniri kudada saNaamani pakutanga, asi tinofanira kuterera vabatiri vaMwari. Chetatu, hatifaniri kureva nhema sezvakaita Gehazi. Hatingadzidzi zvizhinji mukurava Bhaibheri here?
