(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said he/it_lived YHWH which/who stand before,face/front,him if accept and,urged in/on/over=him/it to=take/accept/receive and,refused )
“As surely as I know that Yahweh lives, before whom I stand.” Here Elisha compares the certainty that Yahweh is alive to the certainty that he will not receive any gifts from Naaman. This is a way of making a solemn promise. Alternate translation: “As surely as Yahweh lives, before whom I stand, I promise you that I”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said he/it_lived YHWH which/who stand before,face/front,him if accept and,urged in/on/over=him/it to=take/accept/receive and,refused )
Here serving Yahweh is spoken of as standing in his presence. Alternate translation: “whom I serve”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said he/it_lived YHWH which/who stand before,face/front,him if accept and,urged in/on/over=him/it to=take/accept/receive and,refused )
This means that he will not accept any gifts. Alternate translation: “I will not take any gifts”
5:15-16 No God . . . except in Israel: Naaman’s physical healing led to spiritual conversion. Like the Samaritan leper healed by Jesus, Naaman returned to give thanks to his benefactor (Luke 17:15-16).
• Naaman offered a gift out of gratitude, but Elisha refused; God’s grace and blessings were not to be obtained through money, gifts, or favors (Isa 55:1-5; Rom 2:4; 1 Cor 2:12; Eph 4:8).
