Elisha traveled to Damascus while King Ben Hadad of Syria was sick. The king was told,“ The prophet has come here.”So the king told Hazael,“ Take a gift and go visit the prophet. Request from him an oracle from the LORD. Ask him,‘ Will I recover from this sickness?’”So Hazael went to visit Elisha. He took along a gift, as well as forty camel loads of all the fine things of Damascus. When he arrived, he stood before him and said,“ Your son, King Ben Hadad of Syria, has sent me to you with this question,‘ Will I recover from this sickness?’”Elisha said to him,“ Go and tell him,‘ You will surely recover,’ but the LORD has revealed to me that he will surely die.”Elisha just stared at him until Hazael became uncomfortable. Then the prophet started crying.Hazael asked,“ Why are you crying, my master?” He replied,“ Because I know the trouble you will cause the Israelites. You will set fire to their fortresses, kill their young men with the sword, smash their children to bits, and rip open their pregnant women.”Hazael said,“ How could your servant, who is as insignificant as a dog, accomplish this great military victory?” Elisha answered,“ The LORD has revealed to me that you will be the king of Syria.”He left Elisha and went to his master. Ben Hadad asked him,“ What did Elisha tell you?” Hazael replied,“ He told me you would surely recover.”The next day Hazael took a piece of cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it over Ben Hadad’s face until he died. Then Hazael replaced him as king.

Now King Ben Hadad of Syria assembled all his army, along with thirty-two other kings with their horses and chariots. He marched against Samaria and besieged and attacked it.He sent messengers to King Ahab of Israel, who was in the city.He said to him,“ This is what Ben Hadad says,‘ Your silver and your gold are mine, as well as the best of your wives and sons.’”The king of Israel replied,“ It is just as you say, my master, O king. I and all I own belong to you.”The messengers came again and said,“ This is what Ben Hadad says,‘ I sent this message to you,“ You must give me your silver, gold, wives, and sons.”But now at this time tomorrow I will send my servants to you and they will search through your palace and your servants’ houses. They will carry away all your valuables.”The king of Israel summoned all the leaders of the land and said,“ Notice how this man is looking for trouble. Indeed, he demanded my wives, sons, silver, and gold, and I did not resist him.”All the leaders and people said to him,“ Do not give in or agree to his demands.”So he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad,“ Say this to my master, the king,‘ I will give you everything you demanded at first from your servant, but I am unable to agree to this latest demand.’” So the messengers went back and gave their report.Ben Hadad sent another message to him,“ May the gods judge me severely if there is enough dirt left in Samaria for my soldiers to scoop up in their hands.”The king of Israel replied,“ Tell him the one who puts on his battle gear should not boast like one who is taking it off.”When Ben Hadad received this reply, he and the other kings were drinking in their quarters. He ordered his servants,“ Get ready to attack!” So they got ready to attack the city.Now a prophet visited King Ahab of Israel and said,“ This is what the LORD says,‘ Do you see this huge army? Look, I am going to hand it over to you this very day. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”Ahab asked,“ By whom will this be accomplished?” He answered,“ This is what the LORD says,‘ By the servants of the district governors.’” Ahab asked,“ Who will launch the attack?” He answered,“ You will.”So Ahab assembled the 232 servants of the district governors. After that he assembled all the Israelite army, numbering 7,000.They marched out at noon, while Ben Hadad and the thirty-two kings allied with him were drinking heavily in their quarters.The servants of the district governors led the march. When Ben Hadad sent messengers, they reported back to him,“ Men are marching out of Samaria.”He ordered,“ Whether they come in peace or to do battle, take them alive.”They marched out of the city with the servants of the district governors in the lead and the army behind them.Each one struck down an enemy soldier; the Syrians fled and Israel chased them. King Ben Hadad of Syria escaped on horseback with some horsemen.Then the king of Israel marched out and struck down the horses and chariots; he thoroughly defeated Syria.The prophet visited the king of Israel and instructed him,“ Go, fortify your defenses. Determine what you must do, for in the spring the king of Syria will attack you.”
