2 Kings 8:13-15

International Standard Version

¹³ But Hazael responded, “What? Who am I, your servant, that I should do such a horrible thing?”

But Elisha answered, “The Lord has shown me that you will be king over Aram.”

¹⁴ So he left Elisha and returned to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha tell you?”

He replied, “He told me that you would certainly get better.”

¹⁵ But the very next day, Hazael^[a] grabbed a thick covering, soaked it in water, and spread it over the king’s^[b] face, and he suffocated.^[c] Then Hazael succeeded Ben-hadad^[d] as king.
