2 Kings 8:13-15

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹³ Hazael said, ‘How could your servant, a mere dog,^(A) do such a mighty deed? ’

Elisha answered, ‘The Lord has shown me that you will be king over Aram.’^(B)

¹⁴ Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, ‘What did Elisha say to you? ’

He responded, ‘He told me you are sure to recover.’ ¹⁵ The next day Hazael took a heavy cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it over the king’s face. Ben-hadad died, and Hazael reigned in his place.
