2 Kings 5:16
Douay-Rheims
But he answered: As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And when he pressed him, he still refused.
Adam Clarke
I will receive none - It was very common to give presents to all great and official men; and among these, prophets were always included: but as it might have appeared to the Syrians that he had taken the offered presents as a remuneration for the cure performed, he refused; for as God alone did the work, he alone should have all the glory.
