2 Kings 8:8-10

New International Version

⁸ he said to Hazael,^(A) “Take a gift^(B) with you and go to meet the man of God. Consult^(C) the Lord through him; ask him, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”

⁹ Hazael went to meet Elisha, taking with him as a gift forty camel-loads of all the finest wares of Damascus. He went in and stood before him, and said, “Your son Ben-Hadad king of Aram has sent me to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”

¹⁰ Elisha answered, “Go and say to him, ‘You will certainly recover.’^(D) Nevertheless,^[a] the Lord has revealed to me that he will in fact die.”
