2 Kings 8:11-13

New King James Version

¹¹ Then he ^[a]set his countenance in a stare until he was ashamed; and the man of God ^(A)wept. ¹² And Hazael said, “Why is my lord weeping?”

He answered, “Because I know ^(B)the evil that you will do to the children of Israel: Their strongholds you will set on fire, and their young men you will kill with the sword; and you ^(C)will dash their children, and rip open their women with child.”

¹³ So Hazael said, “But what ^(D)is your servant—a dog, that he should do this gross thing?”

And Elisha answered, ^(E)“The Lord has shown me that you will become king over Syria.”
