2 Kings 6:13-19
13So the king saidH559, “GoH1980 and seeH7200 whereH351 heH1931 is, that I may sendH7971 men to capture himH3947.”
On receiving the reportH5046, “Elisha is in DothanH1886,” 14the king of Aram sentH7971 horsesH5483, chariotsH7393, and a greatH3515 armyH2428. They went thereH935 by nightH3915 and surroundedH5362H5921 the cityH5892.
15When the servantH8334 of the manH376 of GodH430 got upH6965 and went outH3318 early in the morningH7925, beholdH2009, an armyH2428 with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 had surroundedH5437 the cityH5892. So heH5288H413 asked ElishaH559, “OhH162, my masterH113, whatH349 are we to doH6213?”
16“Do notH408 be afraidH3372,” Elisha answeredH559, “forH3588 those whoH834 are with usH854 are moreH7227 than those whoH834 are with themH854.”
17Then ElishaH477H559 prayedH6419, “O LORDH3068, pleaseH4994 openH6491 his eyesH5869 that he may seeH7200.”
And the LORDH3068 openedH6491 the eyesH5869 of the young manH5288, and he saw thatH7200H2009 the hillsH2022 were full ofH4390 horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 of fireH784 all aroundH5439 ElishaH477.
18As the Arameans came downH3381 against himH413, ElishaH477 prayedH6419 toH413 the LORDH3068H559, “PleaseH4994 strikeH5221 theseH2088 peopleH1471 with blindnessH5575.” So He struck themH5221 with blindnessH5575, according to the wordH1697 of ElishaH477.
19And ElishaH477 toldH559 themH413, “ThisH2088 is notH3808 the wayH1870, and thisH2090 is notH3808 the cityH5892. FollowH1980 meH310, and I will takeH1980 you toH413 the manH376 you are seekingH1245.” And he ledH1980 themH853 to SamariaH8111.
