jub@2Kings:6:8 @ Then the king of Syria warred against Israel and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place [shall be] my camp.

jub@2Kings:6:9 @ And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware to not pass through such [and such] a place, for the Syrians are going there.

jub@2Kings:6:10 @ Then the king of Israel sent to the place, which the man of God told him and warned him of and kept himself from there, not once nor twice.

jub@2Kings:6:11 @ Therefore, the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled over this thing, and he called his servants and said unto them, Will ye not show me which of us [is] for the king of Israel?

jub@2Kings:6:12 @ Then one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king, but Elisha, the prophet that [is] in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.

jub@2Kings:6:13 @ And he said, Go and spy where he [is], that I may send and take him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, [he is] in Dothan.

jub@2Kings:6:14 @ So he sent horsemen and chariots there and a great host, who came by night and compassed the city about.

jub@2Kings:6:15 @ And when the servant of the man of God was risen early to go forth, behold, a host compassed the city both with horsemen and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! What shall we do?

jub@2Kings:6:16 @ And he answered, Fear not; for those that [are] with us [are] more than those that [are] with them.

jub@2Kings:6:17 @ And Elisha prayed and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw; and, behold, the mountain [was] full of horsemen and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

jub@2Kings:6:18 @ And when the Syrians came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD and said, Smite these people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

jub@2Kings:6:20 @ And when they came into Samaria, Elisha said, LORD, open the eyes of these [men], that they may see. And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and, behold, [they were] in the midst of Samaria.

jub@2Kings:6:21 @ And the king of Israel said unto Elisha, when he saw them, My father, shall I smite [them]? Shall I smite [them]?

jub@2Kings:6:22 @ And he answered, Thou shalt not smite [them]; would thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and return to their master.

jub@2Kings:6:23 @ And he prepared great provision for them; and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. So the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.
