3And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?Select 2 Kings 7:3

4If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.Select 2 Kings 7:4

5And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.Select 2 Kings 7:5
