1599 Geneva Bible
21 And as they were burying a man: behold, they saw the soldiers: therefore they cast the man into the sepulcher of Elisha. And when the man was down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he [a]revived and stood upon his feet.
22 ¶ But Hazael king of Aram vexed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 Therefore the Lord had mercy on them and pitied them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from him as [b]yet.
