2 Kings 6:8-14

The king of Aram was at war with Israel. He had a council meeting with his officers and said, “I will set up my camp in this place.” Elisha, the man of God, sent a message to the king of Israel, saying, “Be careful! Don’t pass that place, because the Arameans are going down there!” The king of Israel checked the place about which Elisha had warned him. Elisha warned him several times, so the king protected himself there. The king of Aram was angry about this. He called his officers together and demanded, “Tell me who of us is working for the king of Israel.” One of the officers said, “None, my master and king. It’s Elisha, the prophet from Israel. He can tell you what you speak in your bedroom.” The king said, “Go and find him so I can send men and catch him.” The servants came back and reported, “He is in Dothan.” Then the king sent horses, chariots, and many troops to Dothan. They arrived at night and surrounded the city.
