The lepers call to the city gatekeepers and tell them that there is no man in the camp of the Syrians
문둥이들이 성 문지기를 불러 아람 진에 한 사람도 없다고 고함
2 Kings 7:9–11: the lepers say to one another, “We aren’t doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we keep silent. If we wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us. Now therefore come, let’s go and tell the king’s household.” So they come and call to the city gatekeepers; and they tell them, “We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, not even a man’s voice, but the horses tied, and the donkeys tied, and the tents as they were.” Then the gatekeepers call out and tell it to the king’s household within. At 7:9 WEB reads “they said to one another”, where the Korean Revised Version names the lepers (문둥이가 서로 말하되); at 7:11 the Korean Revised Version reads 저가 문지기들을 부르매 저희가 왕궁에 있는 자에게 고하니, he called the gatekeepers, and they told it to those in the king’s house, where WEB has the gatekeepers call out.
