2 Kings 3:11-13

Living Bible

¹¹ But Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, asked, “Isn’t there a prophet of the Lord with us? If so, we can find out what to do!”

“Elisha is here,” one of the king of Israel’s officers replied. Then he added, “He was Elijah’s assistant.”

¹² “Fine,” Jehoshaphat said. “He’s just the man we want.”^[a] So the kings of Israel, Judah, and Edom went to consult Elisha.

¹³ “I want no part of you,” Elisha snarled at King Joram of Israel. “Go to the false prophets of your father and mother!”

But King Joram replied, “No! For it is the Lord who has called us here to be destroyed by the king of Moab!”
