5 When the messengers returned to him he said to them, "Why have you returned ?" 7 He said to them, "What kind of man was he who came up to meet you and spoke these words to you?" 9 When they had crossed over, Elijah said to Elisha, "Ask what I shall do for you before I am taken from you." And Elisha said, "Please, let a double portion of your spirit be upon me." 13 Now Elisha said to the king of Israel, "What do I have to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and to the prophets of your mother." And the king of Israel said to him, "No, for the LORD has called these three kings together to give them into the hand of Moab." 2 Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house ?" And she said, "Your maidservant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil." 13 He said to him, "Say now to her, 'Behold, you have been careful for us with all this care ; what can I do for you? Would you be spoken for to the king or to the captain of the army ?' " And she answered, "I live among my own people." 14 So he said, "What then is to be done for her?" And Gehazi answered, "Truly she has no son and her husband is old." 43 His attendant said, "What, will I set this before a hundred men ?" But he said, "Give them to the people that they may eat, for thus says the LORD, 'They shall eat and have some left over.' " 8 It happened when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent word to the king, saying, "Why have you torn your clothes ? Now let him come to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel." 28 And the king said to her, "What is the matter with you?" And she answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give your son that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.' 33 While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him and he said, "Behold, this evil is from the LORD ; why should I wait for the LORD any longer ?"

Four Lepers Relate Arameans' Flight

3 Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate ; and they said to one another, "Why do we sit here until we die ? 13 Then Hazael said, "But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he should do this great thing ?" And Elisha answered, "The LORD has shown me that you will be king over Aram." 14 So he departed from Elisha and returned to his master, who said to him, "What did Elisha say to you?" And he answered, "He told me that you would surely recover." 18 So a horseman went to meet him and said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace ?' " And Jehu said, "What have you to do with peace ? Turn behind me." And the watchman reported, "The messenger came to them, but he did not return." 19 Then he sent out a second horseman, who came to them and said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace ?' " And Jehu answered, "What have you to do with peace ? Turn behind me." 22 When Joram saw Jehu, he said, "Is it peace, Jehu ?" And he answered, "What peace, so long as the harlotries of your mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many ?" 10 "You have indeed defeated Edom, and your heart has become proud. Enjoy your glory and stay at home ; for why should you provoke trouble so that you, even you, would fall, and Judah with you?" 19 Then Rabshakeh said to them, "Say now to Hezekiah, 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, "What is this confidence that you have ? 8 Now Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up to the house of the LORD the third day ?" 14 Then Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, "What did these men say, and from where have they come to you?" And Hezekiah said, "They have come from a far country, from Babylon." 15 He said, "What have they seen in your house ?" So Hezekiah answered, "They have seen all that is in my house ; there is nothing among my treasuries that I have not shown them." 17 Then he said, "What is this monument that I see ?" And the men of the city told him, "It is the grave of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things which you have done against the altar of Bethel."
