2 Kings 6:19-23 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

19. Elisha said to them, “This is not the way, neither is this the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek.” He led them to Samaria.

20. When they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, “Lord, open these men’s eyes, that they may see.”The Lord opened their eyes, and they saw; and behold, they were in the middle of Samaria.

21. The king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, “My father, shall I strike them? Shall I strike them?”

22. He answered, “You shall not strike them. Would you strike those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.”

23. He prepared a great feast for them. When they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. So the bands of Syria stopped raiding Eretz-Israel.
