13. Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What do we have in common? Go to the prophets of your father and to the prophets of your mother.” Then the king of Israel said to him, “No, for Yahweh has called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”
14. Then Elisha said, “As Yahweh of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely if I was not regarding the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would have not looked at you nor even glanced at you.
15. But now, bring me a musician.” It happened that at the moment the musician played, the hand of Yahweh came upon him.
16. He said, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘Make this wadi full of cisterns,’
17. for thus says Yahweh, ‘You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this wadi will be full of water; and you and all of your livestock and your animals shall drink.’
18. And since this is too trivial in the eyes of Yahweh, he will also give Moab into your hand,
19. and you shall defeat every fortified city, every choice city, and you shall fell every good tree. All of the springs of water you shall stop up, and every tract of good land you shall ruin with the stones.”
20. It happened in the morning about the time of the morning offering, that water was suddenly coming from the direction of Edom and the land was filled with water.
21. Now all of Moab had heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, and all who were fighting age and up were called up, and they stood at the border.
22. When they arose early in the morning, the sun shone on the waters, and Moab saw the waters from the opposite side as red as blood.
