2 Kings 6:20-22

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁰ And when they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, Lord, open the eyes of these men that they may see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw. Behold, they were in the midst of Samaria!

²¹ When the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, My father, shall I slay them? Shall I slay them?

²² [Elisha] answered, You shall not slay them. Would you slay those you have taken captive with your sword and bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and return to their master.
