My heart went not when the man turned from off his chariot to meet thee ;
is it a time to take silver ,
and to take garments ,
and olives ,
and vines ,
and flock ,
and herd ,
and men-servants ,
and maid-servants ?

yea ,
the leprosy of Naaman doth cleave to thee ,
and to thy seed , --
to the age ;'
and he goeth out from before him --
leprous as snow .
