# my master Hazael refers to Elisha this way to honor him. # Because I know God has shown Elisha what will take place in the future. # you will do "you will cause to happen" # You will set ... you will kill "You soldiers will set ... your soldiers will kill" # dash in pieces their little ones "crush their little children." This is a brutal description of the soldiers killing children. # kill their young men with the sword "kill their young men in battle" # rip open their pregnant women "rip open the stomachs of their pregnant women with swords"
