2 Kings 5 20-2 Kings 5 27
But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, thought,“ Behold, my master has spared this Naaman the Aramean, by not accepting from his hand what he brought. As the Lord lives, I will run after him and take something from him.”So Gehazi pursued Naaman. When Naaman saw someone running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him and said,“ Is everything well?”And he said,“ Everything is well. My master has sent me, saying,‘ Behold, just now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothes.’ ”Naaman said,“ Be sure to take two talents.” And he urged him, and tied up two talents of silver in two bags with two changes of clothes, and gave them to two of his servants; and they carried them before him.When he came to the hill, he took them from their hand and deposited them in the house, and he sent the men away, and they departed.But he went in and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him,“ Where have you been, Gehazi?” And he said,“ Your servant went nowhere.”Then he said to him,“ Did my heart not go with you, when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to accept money and to accept clothes, olive groves, vineyards, sheep, oxen, and male and female slaves?Therefore, the leprosy of Naaman shall cling to you and to your descendants forever.” So he went out from his presence afflicted with leprosy, as white as snow.

1 Corinthians 4 2-1 Corinthians 4 5
In this case, moreover, it is required of stewards that one be found trustworthy.But to me it is an insignificant matter that I would be examined by you, or by any human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself.For I am not aware of anything against myself; however I am not vindicated by this, but the one who examines me is the Lord.Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of human hearts; and then praise will come to each person from God.
