2 Kings 6:5-15

5As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water, and he cried out, “Oh, my master, it was borrowed!”

6Then the man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, the man of God cut a piece of wood, threw it there, and made the iron float.

7Then he said, “Pick it up.” So he reached out and took it.

8When the king of Aram was waging war against Israel, he conferred with his servants, “My camp will be at such and such a place.”

9But the man of God sent word to the king of Israel: “Be careful passing by this place, for the Arameans are going down there.”

10Consequently, the king of Israel sent word to the place the man of God had told him about. The man of God repeatedly warned the king, so the king would be on his guard.

11The king of Aram was enraged because of this matter, and he called his servants and demanded of them, “Tell me, which one of us is for the king of Israel?”

12One of his servants said, “No one, my lord the king. Elisha, the prophet in Israel, tells the king of Israel even the words you speak in your bedroom.”

13So the king said, “Go and see where he is, so I can send men to capture him.” When he was told, “Elisha is in Dothan,”

14he sent horses, chariots, and a massive army there. They went by night and surrounded the city.

15When the servant of the man of God got up early and went out, he discovered an army with horses and chariots surrounding the city. So he asked Elisha, “Oh, my master, what are we to do?”
