2 Kings 6:19-23
19Then ElishaH477 saidH559 to them, “ThisH2088 is not the wayH1870, norH3808 is thisH2090 the cityH5892; followH1980H310 me and I will bringH1980 you to the manH376 whomH834 you seekH1245.” And he broughtH1980 them to SamariaH8111.
20When they had comeH935 into SamariaH8111, ElishaH477 saidH559, “1LordH3068, openH6491 the eyesH5869 of theseH428 men, so that they may seeH7200.” So the LordH3068 openedH6491 their eyesH5869, and they sawH7200; and beholdH2009, they were in the midstH8432 of SamariaH8111. 21Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 when he sawH7200 them, saidH559 to ElishaH477, “2My fatherH1, shall I 3killH5221 them? Shall I 4killH5221 them?” 22But he 5answeredH559, “You shall not 6killH5221 them. Would you 78killH5221 those whomH834 you have takenH7617 captiveH7617 with your swordH2719 and your bowH7198? 9SetH7760 breadH3899 and waterH4325 beforeH6440 them, so that they may eatH398 and drinkH8354, and goH1980 to their masterH113.” 23So he providedH3738 a largeH1419 feastH3740 for them; and when they had eatenH398 and drunkH8354, he sentH7971 them awayH7971, and they wentH1980 to their masterH113. And 10the maraudingH1416 bandsH1416 of ArameansH758 did not comeH935 againH5750H3254 into the landH776 of IsraelH3478.
