2 Kings 6:21-23

Tree of Life Version

²¹ When the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, “Shall I surely strike them down, Avi?”

²² “Don’t strike them down,” he replied. “Would you strike down those whom you have captured with your own sword and bow? Set before them bread and water that they may eat and drink and go back to their master.” ²³ So he prepared a great feast for them. After they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went back to their master. Ever since, the marauding bands of Aram stopped invading the land of Israel.
