Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, … Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage. (2 Kings 5:10‑12) |
Many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian. (Luke 4:27) |
“Go, wash in Jordan, and be clean,” The prophet’s message given; But this ill suits the warrior’s mind — His chariot back is driven; Then Naaman yielded, spite of pride; He washed and he was clean; And all who now in Christ confide Are washed from every sin. |
