2 Kings 7:16-20 - Prophecy Fulfilled

¹⁶ The people of Samaria rushed out and looted the Syrian camp. Just as Jehovah said, ten pounds of the best wheat or twenty pounds of barley were sold for one piece of silver. ¹⁷ The king of Israel put the city gate under the command of the officer who was his personal attendant. The officer was trampled to death there by the people and died, as Elisha had predicted when the king went to see him. ¹⁸ Elisha told the king that by that time the following day ten pounds of the best wheat or twenty pounds of barley would be sold in Samaria for one piece of silver. ¹⁹ The king's attendant answered: If Jehovah could open floodgates in the heavens could this happen? Elisha had replied: You shall see with your own eyes. But you will not eat from it. ²⁰ And that is just what happened! He died. The people at the city gate trampled him to death.
