When he came, he stood before him and said, "Your son, Ben-Hadad, the king of Aram, has sent me to ask, 'Will I recover from this sickness?'" 10 Elisha said to him, "Go and say to him, 'You will certainly recover,' but the LORD has shown me that he will surely die." 11 Elisha fixed his gaze on him and stared until Hazael was embarrassed. Then the man of God began to weep. 12 Hazael asked, "Why is my lord weeping?" Elisha answered, "Because I know the harm you will do to the people of Israel. You will set their fortresses on fire, you will kill their young men with the sword, you will dash their little ones to pieces, and you will rip open their pregnant women." 13 Hazael said, "How could your servant, a mere dog, accomplish such a great thing?"

I and all that I have are yours.' 5 But the messengers came back and said, 'This is what Ben-Hadad says: I sent to demand your silver, gold, wives, and children. You must give them to me.' 6 'About this time tomorrow, I will send my officials to search your palace and the houses of your officials. They will take whatever you value and carry it off.' 7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land and said, 'See how this man is seeking trouble! He sent for my wives, my sons, my silver, and my gold, and I did not refuse him.' 8 The elders and all the people said to him, 'Do not listen to or agree to his demands.' 9 So he replied to Ben-Hadad's messengers, 'Tell my lord the king: I will do what you originally demanded of me, but this I cannot do.' The messengers left and reported back to Ben-Hadad. 10 Then Ben-Hadad sent another message: 'May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if the dust of Samaria will suffice for even a handful for each of the people who follow me.' 11 The king of Israel replied, 'Tell him: One who arms himself for battle should not boast as if he is already victorious.' 12 When Ben-Hadad heard this reply while he and the kings were drinking in their tents, he commanded his officials, 'Prepare to attack,' and they prepared to attack the city. 13 Meanwhile, a prophet approached Ahab, king of Israel, and said, 'This is what the LORD says: Do you see this vast army? I will give it into your hand today, and you will know that I am the LORD.' 14 Then Ahab asked, 'By whom will this be accomplished?' The prophet replied, 'This is what the LORD says: By the young men of the provincial leaders.' Ahab further asked, 'Who will start the battle?' The prophet answered, 'You will.' 15 So Ahab mustered the young men of the provincial leaders, and there were two hundred thirty-two of them. After them, he assembled all the people of Israel—seven thousand in total. 16 They marched out at noon, while Ben-Hadad and the thirty-two kings allied with him were drinking themselves drunk in their tents. 17 The young men of the provincial leaders went out first, and Ben-Hadad sent scouts who reported to him, 'Men have come out from Samaria.' 18 He said, 'If they have come out for peace, capture them alive; and if they have come out for war, capture them alive.' 19 The young men of the provincial leaders marched out of the city, followed by the army. 20 Each man struck down his opponent, and the Arameans fled with Israel pursuing them. Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, escaped on horseback along with some cavalry. 21 The king of Israel went out and struck down the horses and chariots, and he inflicted a great defeat on the Arameans. 22 Afterward, the prophet came to the king of Israel and said, 'Strengthen your position and see what you must do, because next spring the king of Aram will come up against you again.'
