← 2 Kings 7:13	2 Kings 7:14 (KJV)	2 Kings 7:15 →
And one of his servants answered and said, Let [some] take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they [are] as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, [I say], they [are] even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see.	They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.	And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way [was] full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
