2 Kings 13:18-20

Amplified Bible

¹⁸ Then he said, “Take the arrows,” and he took them. And Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground,” and he struck it three times and stopped. ¹⁹ So the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck five or six times; then you would have struck down Aram until you had destroyed it. But now you shall strike Aram only three times.”

²⁰ Elisha died, and they buried him. Now marauding bands of Moabites would invade the land in the spring of the year.
