He announced, "May God punish me, and ever so severely, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders through this day!" Context 31Then he said, “May God do so to me and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat remains on him today.” 32Now Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. And the king sent a man from his presence; but before the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, “Do you see how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door and hold the door shut against him. Is not the sound of his master’s feet behind him?” 33While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him and he said, “Behold, this evil is from the LORD; why should I wait for the LORD any longer?” Links 2 Kings 6:31 NIV2 Kings 6:31 NLT 2 Kings 6:31 ESV 2 Kings 6:31 NASB 2 Kings 6:31 KJV 2 Kings 6:31 Commentaries Bible Hub |
