Elisha went to Damascus and wept before Hazael, saying: "I know the harm you will do to the Israelites. You will set fire to their fortified places, kill their young men with the sword, dash their little children to the ground, and rip open their pregnant women." Hazael protested: "How could your servant, a mere dog, accomplish such a feat?" Elisha replied: "The Lord has shown me that you will become king of Aram." (2 Kings 8:12-13). Fulfilled precisely.
