8And the king of Syria, for his part, became involved in war against Israel. Accordingly he took counsel with his servants, saying: “At such and such a place YOU will encamp with me.”
9Then the man of the [true] God sent to the king of Israel, saying: “Guard yourself against passing by this place, because there is where the Syrians are coming down.”
10So the king of Israel sent to the place that the man of the [true] God had said to him. And he warned him, and he kept away from there, not once or twice.
11Consequently the heart of the king of Syria became enraged over this matter, so that he called his servants and said to them: “Will YOU not tell me who from those who belong to us is for the king of Israel?”
12Then one of his servants said: “None, my lord the king, but it is Elisha the prophet who is in Israel that tells the king of Israel the things that you speak in your inner bedroom.”
13So he said: “YOU men go and see where he is, that I may send and take him.” Later the report was made to him, saying: “There he is in Dothan.”
14Immediately he sent horses and war chariots and a heavy military force there; and they proceeded to come by night and close in upon the city.
15When the minister of the man of the [true] God rose early to get up, and went out, why, there a military force was surrounding the city with horses and war chariots. At once his attendant said to him: “Alas, my master! What shall we do?”
16But he said: “Do not be afraid, for there are more who are with us than those who are with them.”
17And Elisha began to pray and say: “O Jehovah, open his eyes, please, that he may see.” Immediately Jehovah opened the attendant’s eyes, so that he saw; and, look! the mountainous region was full of horses and war chariots of fire all around Elisha.
18When they began to come down to him, Elisha went on to pray to Jehovah and say: “Please, strike this nation with blindness.” So he struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
19Elisha now said to them: “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and let me conduct YOU to the man YOU look for.” However, he conducted them to Samaria.

8Now the king of Aram was at war with Israel. After conferring with his officers, he said, “I will set up my camp in such and such a place.”
9The man of God sent word to the king of Israel: “Beware of passing that place, because the Arameans are going down there.”
10So the king of Israel checked on the place indicated by the man of God. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places.
11This enraged the king of Aram. He summoned his officers and demanded of them, “Tell me! Which of us is on the side of the king of Israel?”
12“None of us, my lord the king,” said one of his officers, “but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom.”
13“Go, find out where he is,” the king ordered, “so I can send men and capture him.” The report came back: “He is in Dothan.”
14Then he sent horses and chariots and a strong force there. They went by night and surrounded the city.
15When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.
16“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
17And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, LORD, so that he may see.” Then the LORD opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
18As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, “Strike this army with blindness.” So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.
19Elisha told them, “This is not the road and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will lead you to the man you are looking for.” And he led them to Samaria.

8Y el rey de Siria, por su parte, llegó a estar envuelto en guerra contra Israel. Por lo tanto entró en consejo con sus siervos, y dijo: “En tal y tal lugar ustedes acamparán conmigo”.
9Entonces el hombre del Dios [verdadero] envió a decir al rey de Israel: “Guárdate de pasar por este lugar, porque es allí adonde están bajando los sirios”.
10De manera que el rey de Israel envió al lugar que le había dicho el hombre del Dios [verdadero]. Y él le advirtió, y él se mantuvo alejado de allí, no una vez ni dos.
11En consecuencia, el corazón del rey de Siria se enfureció por este asunto, de manera que llamó a sus siervos y les dijo: “¿No me declararán quién de los que nos pertenecen está a favor del rey de Israel?”.
12Entonces uno de sus siervos dijo: “Ninguno, mi señor el rey, sino que Eliseo el profeta que está en Israel informa al rey de Israel las cosas que hablas en tu alcoba interior”.
13Por lo tanto él dijo: “Vayan y vean dónde está, para que yo envíe y lo tome”. Más tarde se le hizo el informe, diciendo: “Allí está en Dotán”.
14Inmediatamente él envió allá caballos y carros de guerra y una pesada fuerza militar; y procedieron a venir de noche y a rodear la ciudad.
15Cuando el ministro del hombre del Dios [verdadero] madrugó para levantarse, y salió afuera, pues, allí estaba una fuerza militar que cercaba a la ciudad con caballos y carros de guerra. En seguida su servidor le dijo: “¡Ay, amo mío! ¿Qué haremos?”.
16Pero él dijo: “No tengas miedo, porque hay más que están con nosotros que los que están con ellos”.
17Y Eliseo se puso a orar y decir: “Oh Jehová, ábrele los ojos, por favor, para que vea”. Inmediatamente Jehová abrió los ojos al servidor, de manera que él vio; y, ¡mire!, la región montañosa estaba llena de caballos y carros de guerra de fuego todo en derredor de Eliseo.
18Cuando empezaron a bajar a él, Eliseo se puso a orar a Jehová y decir: “Por favor, hiere a esta nación con ceguera”. De modo que él los hirió con ceguera, conforme a la palabra de Eliseo.
19Eliseo ahora les dijo: “Este no es el camino, y esta no es la ciudad. Síganme, y permítanme conducirlos al hombre que ustedes buscan”. Sin embargo, los condujo a Samaria.
