13 Ug ang iyang mga lagad mingduol, ug namulong kaniya: Amahan ko, kong ang manalagna nagsugo kanimo sa pagbuhat sa dakung butang dili mo ba kini pagbuhaton? Nan hain ang labing maayo, kong siya moingon kanimo: Panghimasa, ug magmahinlo ka?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And his servant came near, and spake unto him, and said, my father,.... Or my lord, as the Targum; this being not a familiar and affectionate expression, but a term of honour, reverence, and submission:
if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? something that was hard and difficult to done, or painful to bear, to go through some severe operation, or disagreeable course of physic:
how much rather then when he saith to thee, wash, and be clean? which is so easy to be done; though Abarbinel observes it may be interpreted, the prophet has bid thee do a great thing, and which is wonderful; for though he has said, wash and be clean, consider it a great thing, and which is a wonderful mystery, and therefore do not despise his cure.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 5:13. My father — A title of the highest respect and affection.
Had bid thee do some great thing — If the prophet had appointed thee to do something very difficult in itself, and very expensive to thee, wouldst thou not have done it? With much greater reason shouldst thou do what will occupy little time, be no expense, and is easy to be performed.
