2 Kings 6:21-23

Christian Standard Bible

²¹ When the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, “Should I kill them,^(A) should I kill them, my father?”

²² Elisha replied, “Don’t kill them. Do you kill those you have captured with your sword or your bow? Set food and water in front of them so they can eat and drink and go to their master.”^(B)

²³ So he prepared a big feast for them. When they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. The Aramean raiders^(C) did not come into Israel’s land again.
