2 Kings 8:12-13

12And HazaelH2371 saidH559, “WhyH4069 is my lordH113 weepingH1058?” And he 1answeredH559, “BecauseH3588 2I knowH3045 the evilH7463 that you will doH6213 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478: you will setH7971 their fortifiedH4013 citiesH4013 on fireH784, you will killH2026 their youngH970 menH970 with the swordH2719, their littleH5768 onesH5768 you 3will smashH7376 toH7376 piecesH7376, and you will ripH1234 upH1234 their pregnantH2030 womenH2030.”

13Then HazaelH2371 saidH559, “But whatH4100 is your servantH5650--4a lowly dogH3611--that he could doH6213 thisH2088 greatH1419 thingH1697?” And ElishaH477 5answeredH559, “6The LordH3068 has shownH7200 me that you will be kingH4428 overH5921 AramH758.”
