Question source
2 Kings
Elisha said to make the valley full of ditches. He promised they would see neither wind nor rain, yet the valley would be filled with water for the people and animals. The water came in the morning, by the way of Edom, and the land was filled with water (2 Kings 3:16–20).
16He said, Thus says Yahweh, Make this valley full of trenches.
17For thus says Yahweh, You shall not see wind, neither shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, and you shall drink, both you and your cattle and your animals.
18This is but a light thing in the sight of Yahweh: he will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
19You shall strike every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.
20It happened in the morning, about the time of offering the offering, that behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
