Chapter 7

KJV - 2 Kings 7:4

If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.

If we say we'll enter the city, famine will be there, and we'll die. If we stay here, we'll still die. So let's go to the Syrian army. If they save us, we live; if they don't, we just die.
