And it cometh to pass, at Elisha the man of God's hearing that the king of Israel hath rent his garments, that he sendeth unto the king, saying, `Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come, I pray thee, unto me, and he doth know that there is a prophet in Israel.'
2 Kings 5:6 And he bringeth in the letter unto the king of Israel, saying, `And now, at the coming in of this letter unto thee, lo, I have sent unto thee Naaman my servant, and thou hast recovered him from his leprosy.'
2 Kings 5:7 And it cometh to pass, at the king of Israel's reading the letter, that he rendeth his garments, and saith, `Am I God, to put to death and to keep alive, that this <FI>one<Fi> is sending unto me to recover a man from his leprosy? for surely know, I pray you, and see, for he is presenting himself to me.'
2 Kings 5:8 And it cometh to pass, at Elisha the man of God's hearing that the king of Israel hath rent his garments, that he sendeth unto the king, saying, `Why hast thou rent thy garments? let him come, I pray thee, unto me, and he doth know that there is a prophet in Israel.'
2 Kings 5:9 And Naaman cometh, with his horses and with his chariot, and standeth at the opening of the house for Elisha;
2 Kings 5:10 and Elisha sendeth unto him a messenger, saying, `Go, and thou hast washed seven times in Jordan, and thy flesh doth turn back to thee--and be thou clean.
The verse centers on "cometh", "pass", "elisha", "god's", "hearing", "king", "israel", and "hath". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "cometh" and "pass", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 7's "And it cometh to pass at the..." into verse 9's "And Naaman cometh with his horses and...", so "cometh" and "pass" 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 "cometh" and "pass" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
