2 Kings 5:16: I will receive none
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
Accepting what the poor bestow'd,
He spurn'd the riches of the great.
To show the world, a man of God
Trampling as dirt beneath his feet
The things they ignorantly prize,
Lays up his treasure in the skies.
