2 Kings 6:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

The Aramean Attack Is Thwarted

⁸ Once when the king of Aram was at war with Israel, he took counsel with his officers. He said, ‘At such and such a place shall be my camp.’ ⁹ But the man of God sent word to the king of Israel, ‘Take care not to pass this place, because the Arameans are going down there.’ ¹⁰ The king of Israel sent word to the place of which the man of God spoke. More than once or twice he warned such a place^[a] so that it was on the alert.
