To the king of Israel he brought the letter, which read: "With this letter I am sending my servant Naaman to you, that you may cure him of his leprosy." (2 Kings 5, 6)
When he read the letter, the king of Israel tore his garments and exclaimed: "Am I a god with power over life and death, that this man should send someone to me to be cured of leprosy? Take note! You can see he is only looking for a quarrel with me!" (2 Kings 5, 7)
When Elisha, the man of God, heard that the king of Israel had torn his garments, he sent word to the king: "Why have you torn your garments? Let him come to me and find out that there is a prophet in Israel." (2 Kings 5, 8)

When the king of Aram was waging war on Israel, he would make plans with his servants to attack a particular place. (2 Kings 6, 8)
But the man of God would send word to the king of Israel, "Be careful! Do not pass by this place, for Aram will attack there." (2 Kings 6, 9)
So the king of Israel would send word to the place which the man of God had indicated, and alert it; then they would be on guard. This happened several times. (2 Kings 6, 10)
Greatly disturbed over this, the king of Aram called together his officers. "Will you not tell me," he asked them, "who among us is for the king of Israel?" (2 Kings 6, 11)
"No one, my lord king," answered one of the officers. "The Israelite prophet Elisha can tell the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom." (2 Kings 6, 12)
When the king of Israel saw them, he asked, "Shall I kill them, my father?" (2 Kings 6, 21)
