2 Kings 6:18–23

¹⁸And when the Syrians came down against him, Elisha prayed to the Lord and said, “Please strike this people with blindness.” ^tSo he struck them with blindness in accordance with the prayer of Elisha. ¹⁹And Elisha said to them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek.” And he led them to Samaria.

²⁰As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O Lord, ^ropen the eyes of these men, that they may see.” So the Lord opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria. ²¹As soon as the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, ^u“My father, shall I strike them down? Shall I strike them down?” ²²He answered, “You shall not strike them down. Would you strike down those whom you have taken captive ^vwith your sword and with your bow? ^wSet bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master.” ²³So he prepared for them a great feast, and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. And the Syrians did not come again ^xon raids into the land of Israel.
