19 And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.
20 And Eli´sha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Eli´sha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Eli´sha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
22 But Haz´a-el king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jeho´ahaz.
23 And the Lord was gracious unto them, and had compassion on 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 his presence as yet.
24 So Haz´a-el king of Syria died; and Ben–ha´dad his son reigned in his stead.
25 And Jeho´ash the son of Jeho´ahaz took again out of the hand of Ben–ha´dad the son of Haz´a-el the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jeho´ahaz his father by war. Three times did Jo´ash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
