Accepting a gift as he and first lady Laura Bush tour the Temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok

There is a Scripture in the Old Testament that came to my mind while posting this Buddhist temple photo, which I can't recall well enough to find to post at the moment, but it concerned a non-Israelite whom God healed, who had to return to serve his master (he was a military leader, under orders), and his master served another god, not the Lord. The newly-healed man asked the prophet to secure God's forgiveness for him when he had to go into the temple of his master's god and be the one on whom his master leaned.
