2 Kings 5:17
“Naaman the Aramean asked for some dust from the promised land in order to cause the shame of Israel, as I think, so that they might be ashamed that a stranger believed that even the dust of their land was filled with God, while the Hebrews did not even believe that God dwells in the prophets.”
17And Naaman said, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules’ burden of earth? for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the LORD.

16But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.
— 2 Kings 5:17 —

19And he said unto him, Go in peace. So he departed from him a little way.
