When the prophet who had brought him back from his way heard about it, he said,“ He is the man of God who disobeyed the LORD’s command. The LORD has given him to the lion, and it has mauled and killed him, according to the word of the LORD that he spoke to him.”Then the old prophet instructed his sons,“ Saddle the donkey for me.” They saddled it,and he went and found the corpse thrown on the road with the donkey and the lion standing beside the corpse. The lion had not eaten the corpse or mauled the donkey.So the prophet lifted the corpse of the man of God and laid it on the donkey and brought it back. The old prophet came into the city to mourn and to bury him.Then he laid the corpse in his own grave, and they mourned over him,“ Oh, my brother!”After he had buried him, he said to his sons,“ When I die, bury me in the grave where the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones,for the message that he cried out by the word of the LORD against the altar in Bethel and against all the shrines of the high places in the cities of Samaria is certain to happen.”

Elisha told him,“ Go say to him,‘ You are sure to recover.’ But the LORD has shown me that he is sure to die.”Then he stared steadily at him until he was ashamed. The man of God wept,and Hazael asked,“ Why is my lord weeping?” He replied,“ Because I know the evil you will do to the people of Israel. You will set their fortresses on fire. You will kill their young men with the sword. You will dash their children to pieces. You will rip open their pregnant women.”Hazael said,“ How could your servant, a mere dog, do such a mighty deed?” Elisha answered,“ The LORD has shown me that you will be king over Aram.”Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him,“ What did Elisha say to you?” He responded,“ He told me you are sure to recover.”The next day Hazael took a heavy cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it over the king’s face. Ben-hadad died, and Hazael reigned in his place.

Pursue the men, and when you overtake them, say to them,‘ Why have you repaid evil for good?Isn’t this the cup that my master drinks from and uses for divination? What you have done is wrong!’”When he overtook them, he said these words to them.They said to him,“ Why does my lord say these things? Your servants could not possibly do such a thing.We even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the silver we found at the top of our bags. How could we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?If it is found with one of us, your servants, he must die, and the rest of us will become my lord’s slaves.”The steward replied,“ What you have said is right, but only the one who is found to have it will be my slave, and the rest of you will be blameless.”So each one quickly lowered his sack to the ground and opened it.The steward searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest, and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.Then they tore their clothes, and each one loaded his donkey and returned to the city.When Judah and his brothers reached Joseph’s house, he was still there. They fell to the ground before him.
