"[Naaman] mencelupkan dirinya sendiri, "katanya," tujuh kali di Yordania. "Bukan sia-sia bahwa Naaman pada masa lampau, ketika menderita kusta, dimurnikan setelah dibaptis, tetapi sebagai indikasi bagi kita. penderita kusta dalam dosa, kita disucikan melalui air suci dan doa Tuhan dari pelanggaran lama kita, dilahirkan kembali secara rohani sebagai bayi yang baru lahir, bahkan seperti yang telah Tuhan nyatakan: "Kecuali manusia dilahirkan kembali melalui air dan Roh, dia tidak akan masuk ke dalam kerajaan surga."

Versi Bahasa Inggris
[Naaman] dipped himself," it says, "seven times in Jordan." It was not for nothing that Naaman of old, when suffering from leprosy, was purified upon his being baptized, but as an indication to us. For as we are lepers in sin, we are made clean by means of the sacred water and the invocation of the Lord from our old transgressions, being spiritually regenerated as new-born babes, even as the Lord has declared: "Except a man be born again through water and the Spirit, he shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
