2 Kings 3:9-20

9So 1the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 wentH1980 with 2the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and 3the kingH4428 of EdomH112; and they madeH5437 a circuitH5437 of sevenH7651 days’H3117 journeyH1870, and there was noH3808 waterH4325 for the armyH4264 or for the cattleH929 that followedH7272 them. 10Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, “AlasH162! For the LordH3068 has calledH7121 theseH428 threeH7969 kingsH4428 to giveH5414 them into the handH3027 of MoabH4124.” 11But JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, “4Is thereH369 not a prophetH5030 of the LordH3068 hereH6311, that we may inquireH1875 of the LordH3068 by him?” And oneH259 of the kingH4428 of Israel’sH3478 servantsH5650 answeredH6030 and saidH559, “5ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 is hereH6311, 6whoH834 used to pourH3332 waterH4325 on the handsH3027 of ElijahH452.” 12JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, “The wordH1697 of the LordH3068 is with him.” So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 and the kingH4428 of EdomH112 wentH3381 downH3381 to him.

13Now ElishaH477 saidH559 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, “WhatH4100 do I have to do with you? 7GoH1980 to the prophetsH5030 of your fatherH1 and to the prophetsH5030 of your motherH517.” And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 to him, “NoH408, for the LordH3068 has calledH7121 theseH428 threeH7969 kingsH4428 together to giveH5414 them into the handH3027 of MoabH4124.” 14ElishaH477 saidH559, “8As the LordH3068 of hostsH6635 livesH2416, beforeH6440 whomH834 I standH5975, were it not that I regardH5375 the presenceH6440 of JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, I would not lookH5027 at you norH518 seeH7200 you. 15But nowH6258 9bringH3947 me a minstrelH5059.” And it cameH1961 about, when the minstrelH5059 playedH5059, that 10the handH3027 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 upon him. 16He saidH559, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, ‘MakeH6213 thisH2088 valleyH5158 fullH1356 of trenchesH1356.’ 17For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, ‘You shall not seeH7200 windH7307 norH3808 shall you seeH7200 rainH1653; yet that valleyH5158 11shall be filledH4390 with waterH4325, so that you shall drinkH8354, both you and your cattleH4735 and your beastsH929. 18ThisH2088 is but a 12slightH7043 thingH7043 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068; He will also giveH5414 the MoabitesH4124 into your handH3027. 1913Then you shall strikeH5221 everyH3605 fortifiedH4013 cityH5892 and everyH3605 choiceH4004 cityH5892, and fellH5307 everyH3605 goodH2896 treeH6086 and stopH5640 allH3605 springsH4599 of waterH4325, and marH3510 everyH3605 goodH2896 pieceH2513 of landH2513 with stonesH68.’” 20It happenedH1961 in the morningH1242 14about the time of offeringH5927 the sacrificeH4503, that beholdH2009, waterH4325 cameH935 by the wayH1870 of EdomH112, and the countryH776 was filledH4390 with waterH4325.
