2 Kings 8:11-13

11And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.1

12And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.

13And Hazael said, But what, is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, Yhwh hath shewed me that thou shalt be king over Syria.
