2 Kings 6:32 in Context — 2 Kings 6
30 E quando o rei ouviu as palavras daquela mulher, rasgou suas roupas, e passou assim pelo muro: e chegou a ver o povo o saco que trazia interiormente sobre sua carne.
31 E ele disse: Assim me faça Deus, e assim me acrescente, se a cabeça de Eliseu filho de Safate restar sobre ele hoje.
32 Estava naquele tempo Eliseu sentado em sua casa, e com ele estavam sentados os anciãos: e o rei enviou a ele um homem. Mas antes que o mensageiro viesse a ele, disse ele aos anciãos: Não vistes como este homicida me envia a tirar a cabeça?
33 Ainda estava ele falando com eles, e eis que o mensageiro que descia a ele; e disse: Certamente este mal vem do SENHOR. Para que tenho de esperar mais ao SENHOR?
