*
And Elisha said to him , "
Go ,
say to him , "
You shall certainly recover .'
However the LORD has shown me that he will really die ."
*
Then he set his countenance in a stare until he was ashamed ;
and the man of God wept .
*
And Hazael said , "
Why is my lord weeping ?"
He answered , "
Because I know the evil that you will do to the children of Israel :
Their strongholds you will set on fire ,
and their young men you will kill with the sword ;
and you will dash their children ,
and rip open their women with child ."
*
So Hazael said , "
But what is your servant--a dog ,
that he should do this gross thing ?"
And Elisha answered , "
The LORD has shown me that you will become king over Syria ."
*
Then he departed from Elisha ,
and came to his master ,
who said to him , "
What did Elisha say to you ?"
And he answered , "
He told me you would surely recover ."
*
But it happened on the next day that he took a thick cloth and dipped it in water ,
and spread it over his face so that he died ;
and Hazael reigned in his place .
