Four Lepers Report the Departure of the Arameans

³ Now four men who had a skin disease were at the entrance of the gate, and they said to each other,^[a] “Why are we sitting here until we die? ⁴ If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ the famine is in the city, and we shall die there; but if we sit here, we shall die. So then, come, let us fall into the camp of the Arameans. If they let us live, we shall live; but if they kill us, then we shall die.” ⁵ So they got up at dusk to go to the camp of the Arameans. They went up to the edge of the camp of the Arameans, and look, there was no man there!
