2 Kings 3:11-14

11But JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, Is there not hereH6311 a prophetH5030 of Jehovah, that we may inquire of Jehovah by him? And oneH259 of the kingH4428 of Israel’s servantsH5650 answered and saidH559, ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 is hereH6311, who pouredH3332 waterH4325 on the handsH3027 of ElijahH452. 12And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, The wordH1697 of Jehovah is with him. So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 and the kingH4428 of EdomH123 wentH3381 downH3381 to him.

13And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophetsH5030 of thy fatherH1, and to the prophetsH5030 of thy motherH517. And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, Nay; for Jehovah hath calledH7121 these threeH7969 kingsH4428 together to deliver them into the handH3027 of MoabH4124. 14And ElishaH477 saidH559, As Jehovah of hostsH6635 liveth, before whom I standH5975, surely, were it not that I regard the presenceH6440 of JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, I would not lookH7200 toward thee, nor seeH7200 thee.
