2 Reyes 6:9

2Ki 6:9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.

Ver. 9. For thither the Syrians are come down. ] To do mischief; where the holy penman maketh use of a Syrian word to set forth the Syrian doings. It signifieth demissi, prostrati, absconditi; there they lie couchant.
