2 Kings 5:26 But he said: Was not my heart present, when the man turned back, from his chariot, to meet thee? So now thou hast received money, and received garments, to buy oliveyards and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and men-servants, and maid-servants.
2 Kings 5:27 But the leprosy of Naaman, shall also stick to thee, and to thy seed for ever. And he went out from him a leper, as white as snow.
The verse centers on "sheep", "said", "heart", "present", "turned", "back", "chariot", and "meet". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "sheep" and "said", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 25's "But he went in and stood before..." into verse 27's "But the leprosy of Naaman shall also...", so "sheep" and "said" belong inside that flow. In 2 Kings context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "sheep" and "said" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
