2 Kings 3:11-13

Tree of Life Version

Elisha Foretells Moab’s Defeat

¹¹ But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there a prophet of Adonai here, that we may inquire of Adonai by him?”

One of the king of Israel’s servants answered and said, “Elisha son of Shaphat, who used to pour water on the hands of Elijah, is here.”

¹² Jehoshaphat replied, “The word of Adonai is with him.” So the king of Israel, Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him. ¹³ But Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What do I have to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and to the prophets of your mother!”

“No!” the king of Israel said to him, “For has Adonai brought these three kings together only to deliver them into the hand of Moab?”
