The Siege of Samaria
24Some time later King Benhadad of Syria led his entire army against Israel and laid siege to the city of Samaria. 25As a result of the siege the food shortage in the city was so severe that a donkey's head cost eighty pieces of silver, and 200 grammes of dove's dung cost five pieces of silver.
26The king of Israel was walking by on the city wall when a woman cried out, “Help me, Your Majesty!”
27He replied, “If the LORD won't help you, what help can I provide? Have I got any wheat or wine? 28What's your trouble?”
She answered, “The other day this woman here suggested that we eat my child, and then eat her child the next day. 29So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I told her that we would eat her son, but she had hidden him!”
30Hearing this, the king tore his clothes in dismay, and the people who were close to the wall could see that he was wearing sackcloth under his clothes. 31He exclaimed, “May God strike me dead if Elisha is not beheaded before the day is over!” 32And he sent a messenger to get Elisha.
Meanwhile, Elisha was at home with some elders who were visiting him. Before the king's messenger arrived, Elisha said to the elders, “That murderer is sending someone to kill me! Now, when he gets here, shut the door and don't let him come in. The king himself will be just behind him.” 33He had hardly finished saying this, when the king arrived and said, “It's the LORD who has brought this trouble on us! Why should I wait any longer for him to do something?”it is what happens in this moment of corona pandemic , we are no longer know what we should do to make living i would be the happiest man if i will get a sponsor who will sponsor me to change my life and this siege
