2 Kings 7:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ So they ran away in the twilight. They left their tents, horses and donkeys. They left the camp standing and ran for their lives.

⁸ The men with the skin disease came to the edge of the camp. Then they went into one of the tents. They ate and drank. They carried silver, gold and clothes out of the camp and hid them. Then they came back and entered another tent. They carried things from this tent and hid them, also. ⁹ Then they said to each other, “We’re doing wrong. Today we have good news, but we are silent. If we wait until the sun comes up, we’ll be punished. Let’s go now and tell the people in the king’s palace.”
