Alicia said, hear the word of the Lord. This is what the Lord says. About this time tomorrow, a sea of flour will sell for a shekel and two seas of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria.

The officer on whose arm the king was leaning said to the man of God, Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen? you will see it with your own eyes answered Alicia but you will not eat any of it the siege lifted now there were four men with leprosy at the entrance

of the city gate they said to each other why stay here until we die if we say if we say we'll go into the city the famine is there and we will die and if we stay here we will die so let's go over to the camp of the arameans and surrender

if they spare us we live if they kill us then we die at dusk they got up and went to the camp of the arameans when they reached the edge of the camp not a man was there For the Lord had caused the aromains to hear the sound of chariots and the horses and a great army. So that they said to one another, Look, the king of Israel has hired the Hidite and Egyptian kings to attack us. So they got up and fled in the dusk and abandoned their tents and their horses and donkeys. They left the camp as it was and ran for their lives. The men who had leprosy who reached the edge of the camp and entered one of the tents.

They ate and drank and carried away silver, golden clothes, and went off and hid them. They returned and entered another tent and took some things from it and hid them also. Then they said to each other, we're not doing right. This is a day of good news and we are keeping it to ourselves if we wait until daylight punishment will overtake us.

Let's go at once and report this to the royal palace. So they went and called out to the city gatekeepers and told them we went into the Arameen camp and not to man was there. Not a sound of anyone. Only tethered horses and donkeys. And the tents left just as they were. The gatekeepers shouted the news and it was reported within the palace. The king got up in the

night and said to his officers, I will tell you what the arreemines have done to us. They know we are starving. So they have left the camp to hide in the countryside, thinking they will surely come out and then we will take them alive and get into the city. One of his officers answered, have some men take five of the horses that are left in the city? Their plight will be like that of the, all, of all the Israelites left here. Yes, they will only be like all of these Israelites who are doomed. So let us send them to find out what happened. So they selected two chariots with their horses,

and the king sent them after the army and army. He commanded the drivers, go and find out what has happened. They followed them as far as the Jordan, and they found the whole road strewn with the clothing and equipment the arameans had thrown away in their headlong flight. So the messengers returned and reported to the king. Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the arameans, so a sea of flower, so a sea of flower. So a say of flour sold for a shekel A two says of barley Sold for a shekel

Has the Lord had said Now the king had put the officer on Whose arm He leaned in charge of the gate And the people trampled him In the gateway and he died Just as the man of God Had foretold

when the king came down to his house. It happened as the man of God had said to the king, About this time tomorrow, a say of flour will sell for a shekel, two say is of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria. The officer had said to the man of God, Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen? The man of God had replied,

You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it. And that is exactly what had happened for the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died. The Shemamites land restored, eight. Now Alicia had said to the woman, whose son he had restored to life,

go away with your family and stay for a while wherever you can, because the Lord has to create a famine in the land that will last seven years. The woman proceeded to do, as the man of God said. She and her family went away and stayed in the land of the Philistines

seven years. At the end of the seven years, she came back from the land of the Philistines and went to the king to beg for her house and land. The king was talking to Gahazi, the servant of the man of God, and had said, tell me about all the great things Alicia has done. Just as Gahazi was telling the king how Alicia had restored the dead to life, the woman who's son, Alicia had brought back to life, came to beg to the king for her house and land. Ghazi said, this is the woman, my lord, the king, and this is her son whom Alicia restored to life. The king asked the woman about it, and she told him. Then he assigned an official to her case

and said to him, give back everything that belonged to her, including all the income from her land from the day she left the country until now. Hazel murders Ben Haddad. Alicia went to Damascus and Benhaddad king of Aram was ill. When the king was told the man of God has come all the way up here, he said to Hazel, take a gift with you and go to meet the man of God. Consult the Lord through him. Ask him, will I recover from this illness?

As I went to meet Alicia, taken with him as a gift, 40 camel loads of all the finest wares of Damascus. He went in and stood before him and said, Your son, Ban Haddad, king of Aram, has sent me to ask, will I recover from this illness? Alicia answered, go and say to him, He will certainly recover, but the Lord has revealed to me that he will in fact die.

He stared at him with a fixed gaze until Hazel felt ashamed. Then the man of God began to weep. Why is my Lord weeping? asked Hazel. Because I know the harm you will do to the Israelites, he answered. You will set fire to the fortified places. kill their young men with the sword, dashed their little children to the ground, and rip open their pregnant woman. Hazel said,

How could your servant, a mere dog, accomplish such a feat? The Lord has shown me that you will become king of Aram, answered Alicia. Then Hazel left Alicia and returned to his master. When Benhad asked, what did Alicia say to you? Hazel replied, he told me that you would certainly recover, but the next day he took a thick cloth, soaked in water and spread it over the king's face so that he died.
