The three kings march seven days without water, and Jehoshaphat asks for a prophet of the LORD

세 왕이 칠일을 행하매 물이 없고 여호사밧이 여호와의 선지자를 찾음

2 Kings 3:9–12: The king of Israel goes with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they march for seven days along a circuitous route. There was no water for the army or for the animals that followed them. The king of Israel says, “Alas! For the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.” But Jehoshaphat says, “Isn’t there a prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?” One of the king of Israel’s servants answers, “Elisha the son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah, is here.” Jehoshaphat says, “The LORD’s word is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom go down to him.
