14 So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.

15 Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and he came and stood before him; and he said, “Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel; so accept now a present from your servant.” 16 But he said, “As the Lord lives, whom I serve, I will receive none.” And he urged him to take it, but he refused. 17 Then Na′aman said, “If not, I pray you, let there be given to your servant two mules’ burden of earth; for henceforth your servant will not offer burnt offering or sacrifice to any god but the Lord.

14 So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times,(A) as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored(B) and became clean like that of a young boy.(C)

15 Then Naaman and all his attendants went back to the man of God(D). He stood before him and said, “Now I know(E) that there is no God in all the world except in Israel. So please accept a gift(F) from your servant.”

16 The prophet answered, “As surely as the Lord lives, whom I serve, I will not accept a thing.” And even though Naaman urged him, he refused.(G)

Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descended from David, as preached in my gospel, the gospel for which I am suffering and wearing fetters like a criminal. But the word of God is not fettered. 10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain salvation in Christ Jesus with its eternal glory. 11 The saying is sure:

If we have died with him, we shall also live with him;
12 if we endure, we shall also reign with him;
if we deny him, he also will deny us;
13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful—

for he cannot deny himself.

11 Here is a trustworthy saying:(K)

If we died with him,
    we will also live with him;(L)
12 if we endure,
    we will also reign with him.(M)
If we disown him,

13 if we are faithless,
    he remains faithful,(O)
    for he cannot disown himself.
