2 Reis 3:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 3:14

Elisha said, as the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand,
&c.] Whose minster and prophet he was, to whom he prayed, and whose service he was ready to perform:

surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king
of Judah;
revere him not only as a king, but as a pious prince, and a worshipper of the true God:

I would not look toward thee, nor see thee;
give him no countenance at all, pay no regard to his request, not so much as to look at him in a civil way; but turn away his face from him with contempt and disdain, as unworthy to be conversed with by a prophet of the Lord.

12 Disse Jeosafá: A palavra do Senhor está com ele. Então o rei de Israel, e Jeosafá, e o rei de Edom desceram a ter com ele.
13 Eliseu disse ao rei de Israel: Que tenho eu contigo? Vai ter com os profetas de teu pai, e com os profetas de tua mãe. O rei de Israel, porém, lhe disse: Não; porque o Senhor chamou estes três reis para entregá-los nas mãos dos moabitas.
14 Respondeu Eliseu: Vive o Senhor dos exércitos, em cuja presença estou, que se eu não respeitasse a presença de Jeosafá, rei de Judá, não te contemplaria, nem te veria.
15 Agora, contudo, trazei-me um harpista. E sucedeu que, enquanto o harpista tocava, veio a mĂŁo do Senhor sobre Eliseu.
16 E ele disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Fazei neste vale muitos poços.
