NETBible

Hazael said, “How could your servant, who is as insignificant as a dog, accomplish this great military victory?” 1  Elisha answered, “The Lord has revealed to me that you will be the king of Syria.” 2 

NET Notes

tn Heb “Indeed, what is your servant, a dog, that he could do this great thing?” With his reference to a dog, Hazael is not denying that he is a “dog” and protesting that he would never commit such a dastardly “dog-like” deed. Rather, as Elisha’s response indicates, Hazael is suggesting that he, like a dog, is too insignificant to ever be in a position to lead such conquests.

tn Heb “The Lord has shown me you [as] king over Syria.”
