*
Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate ;
and they said to one another , "
Why are we sitting here until we die ?
*
If we say , "
We will enter the city ,'
the famine is in the city ,
and we shall die there .
And if we sit here ,
we die also .
Now therefore ,
come ,
let us surrender to the army of the Syrians .
If they keep us alive ,
we shall live ;
and if they kill us ,
we shall only die ."
*
And they rose at twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians ;
and when they had come to the outskirts of the Syrian camp ,
to their surprise no one was there .
*
For the LORD had caused the army of the Syrians to hear the noise of chariots and the noise of horses--the noise of a great army ;
so they said to one another , "
Look ,
the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us !"
