2 Kings 13:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ The man of God was angry with him. He said, “You should have struck the ground five or six times. Then you would have won the war over Aram. You would have completely destroyed them. But now you will win only three battles over them.”

²⁰ Elisha died and was buried.

Some robbers from Moab used to enter the country of Israel every spring. ²¹ One day some Israelites were burying a man. Suddenly they saw a group of robbers. So they threw the man’s body into Elisha’s tomb. The body touched Elisha’s bones. When it did, the man came back to life again. He stood up on his feet.
