Then spake Eli'sha unto the woman, whose son he had restored to life, 2 Kgs. 4.8-37 saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn: for the LORD hath called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land seven years.
And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.
And it came to pass at the seven years' end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines: and she went forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.
And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Geha'zi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Eli'sha restored to life.
And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.
And the king said unto Haz'a-el, Take a present in thine hand, and go, meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?
So Haz'a-el went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels' burden, and came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Ben–ha'dad king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?
And Haz'a-el said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strongholds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.
And Haz'a-el said, But what, is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Eli'sha answered, The LORD hath showed me that thou shalt be king over Syria. 1 Kgs. 19.15
So he departed from Eli'sha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Eli'sha to thee? And he answered, He told me that thou shouldest surely recover.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth, and dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died: and Haz'a-el reigned in his stead.
¶ And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehosh'aphat being then king of Judah, Jeho'ram the son of Jehosh'aphat king of Judah began to reign.
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.
So Joram went over to Za'ir, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.
Two and twenty years old was Ahazi'ah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Athali'ah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.
And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in the sight of the LORD, as did the house of Ahab: for he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab.
And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Haz'a-el king of Syria. And Ahazi'ah the son of Jeho'ram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.
