2 Kings 5:20

Context
5:20 Gehazi, the prophet Elisha’s servant, thought, 1  “Look, my master did not accept what this Syrian Naaman offered him. 2  As certainly as the Lord lives, I will run after him and accept something from him.”

2 Kings 22:17

Context
22:17 This will happen because they have abandoned me and offered sacrifices 3  to other gods, angering me with all the idols they have made. 4  My anger will ignite against this place and will not be extinguished!’”

1 tn Heb “said” (i.e., to himself).

2 tn Heb “Look, my master spared this Syrian Naaman by not taking from his hand what he brought.”

3 tn Or “burned incense.”

4 tn Heb “angering me with all the work of their hands.” The translation assumes that this refers to idols they have manufactured (note the preceding reference to “other gods,” as well as 19:18). However, it is possible that this is a general reference to their sinful practices, in which case one might translate, “angering me by all the things they do.”
