2 Kings 3:13-15

Christian Standard Bible

¹³ However, Elisha said to King Joram of Israel, “What do we have in common? Go to the prophets of your father and your mother!” ^(A)

But the king of Israel replied, “No, because it is the Lord who has summoned these three kings to hand them over to Moab.”

¹⁴ Elisha responded, “By the life of the Lord of Armies,^(B) before whom I stand: If I did not have respect for King Jehoshaphat of Judah,^(C) I wouldn’t look at you; I would not take notice of you. ¹⁵ Now, bring me a musician.”^(D)

While the musician played,^(E) the Lord’s hand^(F) came on Elisha.
