"A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape." Proverbs 19:5. Men may think to hide their evil deeds from human eyes, but they cannot deceive God. "All things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him with whom we have to do." Heb. 4:13. Gehazi thought to deceive Elisha, but God revealed to His prophet the words that Gehazi had spoken to Naaman, and every detail of the scene between the two men.

"Det falske vidne undgår ej straf; den slipper ikke, som farer med løgn." Ordsp. 19,5. Mennesker tror måske, at de kan skjule deres onde handlinger for deres medmennesker, men de kan ikke bedrage Gud. "Alt ligger blottet og udbredt for hans øjne; og ham skal vi stå til regnskab." Hebr. 4,13. Gehazi troede, at han kunne bedrage Elisa, men Gud meddelte sin profet, hvad Gehazi havde sagt til Naaman, og afslørede alt, hvad der havde fundet sted mellem de to mænd.
