---

← 2 Kings 7:9	2 Kings 7:10 (KJV)	2 Kings 7:11 →
Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day [is] a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.	So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, [there was] no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they [were].	And he called the porters; and they told [it] to the king's house within.
