2 Kings 6:18 in Context — 2 Kings 6

16 E ele lhe disse: Não tenhas medo: porque mais são os que estão conosco do que os que estão com eles.

17 E orou Eliseu, e disse: Rogo-te, ó SENHOR, que abras seus olhos para que veja. Então o SENHOR abriu os olhos do jovem, e olhou; e eis que o monte estava cheio de cavaleiros, e de carros de fogo ao redor de Eliseu.

18 E logo que os sírios desceram a ele, orou Eliseu ao SENHOR, e disse: Rogo-te que firas a esta gente com cegueira. E feriu-os com cegueira, conforme ao dito de Eliseu.

19 Depois lhes disse Eliseu: Não é este o caminho, nem é esta a cidade; segui-me, que eu vos guiarei ao homem que buscais. E guiou-os a Samaria.

20 E assim que chegaram a Samaria, disse Eliseu: SENHOR, abre os olhos destes, para que vejam. E o SENHOR abriu seus olhos, e olharam, e acharam-se em meio de Samaria.
