*
And he settled his countenance stedfastly ,
until he was ashamed :
and the man of God wept .
*
And Hazael said ,
Why weepeth my lord ?
And he answered ,
Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel :
their strong holds wilt thou set on fire ,
and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword ,
and wilt dash their children ,
and rip up their women with child .
*
And Hazael said ,
But what ,
is thy servant a dog ,
that he should do this great thing ?
And Elisha answered ,
The LORD hath shewed me that thou shalt be king over Syria .
