2 Kings 3:14-19 Good News Bible (GNB)

14. Elisha answered, “By the living Lord, whom I serve, I swear that I would have nothing to do with you if I didn't respect your ally King Jehoshaphat of Judah.

15. Now get me a musician.”As the musician played his harp, the power of the Lord came on Elisha,

16. and he said, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Dig ditches all over this dry stream bed.

17. Even though you will not see any rain or wind, this stream bed will be filled with water, and you, your livestock, and your pack animals will have plenty to drink.’ ”

18. And Elisha continued, “But this is an easy thing for the Lord to do; he will also give you victory over the Moabites.

19. You will conquer all their beautiful fortified cities; you will cut down all their fruit trees, stop all their springs, and ruin all their fertile fields by covering them with stones.”
