2 Kings 7:9-11

International Children’s Bible

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.”

¹⁰ So they went and called to the gatekeepers of the city. They said, “We went to the Aramean camp. But no one is there. We didn’t hear anyone. The horses and donkeys were still tied up, and the tents were still standing.” ¹¹ Then the gatekeepers shouted out and told the people in the palace.
