And their young men you will kill with the sword. And you will destroy their little ones, and tear open the pregnant women.'

¹³  And Hazael said, 'But what am I, your servant, a dog, that I would do this great thing?' And Elisha said, 'The Lord has revealed to me that you will be the king of Syria.'
