2 Kings 7:14-16
7:14 So they picked two horsemen and the king sent them out to track the Syrian army. 1 He ordered them, “Go and find out what’s going on.” 2
7:15 So they tracked them 3 as far as the Jordan. The road was filled with clothes and equipment that the Syrians had discarded in their haste. 4 The scouts 5 went back and told the king.
7:16 Then the people went out and looted the Syrian camp. A seah 6 of finely milled flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, just as the Lord had said they would. 7
