And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.
Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:
And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head.
