And Eli'sha said, "As the LORD of hosts lives, whom I serve, were it not that I have regard for Jehosh'aphat the king of Judah, I would neither look at you, nor see you.
15
But now bring me a minstrel." And when the minstrel played, the power of the LORD came upon him.
16
And he said, "Thus says the LORD, 'I will make this dry stream-bed full of pools.'
17
For thus says the LORD, 'You shall not see wind or rain, but that stream-bed shall be filled with water, so that you shall drink, you, your cattle, and your beasts.'
18
This is a light thing in the sight of the LORD; he will also give the Moabites into your hand,
19
and you shall conquer every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop up all springs of water, and ruin every good piece of land with stones."
20
The next morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came from the direction of Edom, till the country was filled with water.
21
When all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, all who were able to put on armor, from the youngest to the oldest, were called out, and were drawn up at the frontier.
22
And when they rose early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood.
23
And they said, "This is blood; the kings have surely fought together, and slain one another. Now then, Moab, to the spoil!"
24
But when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose and attacked the Moabites, till they fled before them; and they went forward, slaughtering the Moabites as they went.
