2 Kings 6:13-19

13And he saidH559, GoH7971 and seeH7200 where he is, that I may sendH7971 and fetch him. And it was toldH5046 him, sayingH559, Behold, he is in DothanH1886.

14Therefore sentH7971 he thither horsesH5483, and chariotsH7393, and a great host: and they cameH935 by nightH3915, and compassed the cityH5892 about. 15And when the servantH5288 of the manH376 of GodH430 was risenH6965 earlyH7925, and goneH3318 forthH3318, behold, a host with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 was roundH5437 about the cityH5892. And his servantH5288 saidH559 unto him, AlasH162, my masterH113! howH349 shall we do? 16And he answered, FearH3372 not; for they that are with us are more than they that are with them. 17And ElishaH477 prayedH6419, and saidH559, Jehovah, I prayH6419 thee, openH6491 his eyesH5869, that he may seeH7200. And Jehovah openedH6491 the eyesH5869 of the youngH5288 manH5288; and he sawH7200: and, behold, the mountainH2022 was fullH4390 of horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 of fireH784 roundH5439 about ElishaH477. 18And when they cameH3381 downH3381 to him, ElishaH477 prayedH6419 unto Jehovah, and saidH559, Smite this people, I prayH6419 thee, with blindnessH5575. And he smote them with blindnessH5575 according to the wordH1697 of ElishaH477. 19And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto them, This is not the wayH1870, neither is this the cityH5892: follow me, and I will bring you to the manH376 whom ye seekH1245. And he led them to SamariaH8111.
