What does the Bible say about Gehazi's lies?

In the account of Gehazi found in 2 Kings 5:20-27, Gehazi, the servant of Elisha, pursued Naaman dishonestly, motivated by greed. Elisha had rejected Naaman's gifts, but Gehazi concocted a false story to obtain wealth for himself. This reflects the severe nature of sin as it not only corrupts the sinner but also brings judgment upon them. God revealed Gehazi's actions to Elisha, leading to Gehazi's curse of leprosy, which would affect not just him, but his seed forever, illustrating the communal impact of personal sin.
