2 Kings 13:18-20

Modern English Version

¹⁸ Then he said, “Take the arrows.” So he took them. Then he said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground.” So he struck it three times and stood there. ¹⁹ Then the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck it five or six times. Then you would have stricken Aram until you had finished them. Now you will strike Aram just three times.”

²⁰ So Elisha died, and they buried him.
