# he tore his clothes
Often people would rip their clothes if they were in great distress. Alternate translation: "he ripped his clothes to show his distress" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-symaction]])

# Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man wants me to cure a man of his leprosy?
The king uses this rhetorical question to emphasize that the request of the king of Aram is outrageous and something he cannot do. This can be written as a statement. Alternate translation: "The king of Aram must think I am some sort of God, with the power over death and life! He wants me to cure this man of his leprosy, but I cannot do that." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])

# It seems he is seeking to start an argument with me
The king of Israel did not believe the request to heal Naamam was the real reason for the letter. He thought the real reason was to start a fight. Alternate translation: "It seems he is looking for an excuse to start a fight with me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
