2 Kings 5 20-2 Kings 5 27
Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said,“ See, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not accepting from his hand what he brought. As the Lord lives, I will run after him and get something from him.”So Gehazi followed Naaman. And when Naaman saw someone running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him and said,“ Is all well?”And he said,“ All is well. My master has sent me to say,‘ There have just now come to me from the hill country of Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothing.’”And Naaman said,“ Be pleased to accept two talents.” And he urged him and tied up two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing, and laid them on two of his servants. And they carried them before Gehazi.And when he came to the hill, he took them from their hand and put them in the house, and he sent the men away, and they departed.He went in and stood before his master, and Elisha said to him,“ Where have you been, Gehazi?” And he said,“ Your servant went nowhere.”But he said to him,“ Did not my heart go when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Was it a time to accept money and garments, olive orchards and vineyards, sheep and oxen, male servants and female servants?Therefore the leprosy of Naaman shall cling to you and to your descendants forever.” So he went out from his presence a leper, like snow.

1 Corinthians 4 2-1 Corinthians 4 5
Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice.For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever.He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn is exalted in honor.

But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils.
