וַיֹּ֣אמֶר גֵּיחֲזִ֗י נַעַר֮ אֱלִישָׁ֣ע אִישׁ־הָאֱלֹהִים֒ הִנֵּ֣ה ׀ חָשַׂ֣ךְ אֲדֹנִ֗י אֶֽת־נַעֲמָ֤ן הָֽאֲרַמִּי֙ הַזֶּ֔ה מִקַּ֥חַת מִיָּד֖וֹ אֵ֣ת אֲשֶׁר־הֵבִ֑יא חַי־יְהוָה֙ כִּֽי־אִם־רַ֣צְתִּי אַחֲרָ֔יו וְלָקַחְתִּ֥י מֵאִתּ֖וֹ מְאֽוּמָה׃
Но Гиезий, слуга Елисея, человека Божия, сказал: 'Вот, мой господин пощадил этого Неемана, арамейца, не получив от его рук того, что он принес; жив Господь, и я побегу за ним и немного возьму его.'

Gechazi was only punished because he lied in the name of Elisha.587Kings II 5:20-27; Midrash Tanchuma, Metzora 1:1 Amnon deceived Tamar, which led to him being killed.588Samuel II 13:1-29 The spirit of Navot was sent out from before the Presence of HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, because he spoke deceitfully,589Talmud Bavli, Sanhedrin 102b; Zohar I 192b (Kings I 21:1-13) as it states,590Kings 1 22:20-22 “And HaShem-יהו״ה said, ‘Who will lure Achav to go up [to war] that he may fall in Ramoth-Gilead?’ This one said, ‘Like this’ and this one said, ‘Like this!’ Then a spirit came forward and stood before HaShem-יהו״ה and said, ‘I shall lure him!’ And HaShem-יהו״ה said, ‘How?’ [The spirit] replied, ‘I will go out and be a spirit of falsehood in the mouths of all his prophets.’ He said, ‘You will lure him and you will succeed. Go out (Tzei-צא) and do so!’” What is the meaning of the term “Go out-Tzei-צא?” It means, “Get out of My presence!”591Talmud Bavli, Sanhedrin 102b ibid.; Zohar I 192b ibid. – That is, he was a liar in the first instance, and was thus expelled from the presence of HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He.
