Ἐλισσαῖος δὲ μετὰ ταῦτα καὶ τὰς τῶν πολεμίων ὄψεις ἀμαυρῶσαι τὸν θεὸν παρεκάλει ἀχλὺν αὐταῖς ἐπιβαλόντα ἀφʼ ἧς ἀγνοήσειν αὐτὸν ἔμελλον. γενομένου δὲ καὶ τούτου προελθὼν εἰς μέσους τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἐπηρώτησε, τίνα ἐπιζητοῦντες ἦλθον· τῶν δὲ τὸν προφήτην Ἐλισσαῖον εἰπόντων παραδώσειν ὑπέσχετο, εἰ πρὸς τὴν πόλιν ἐν ᾗ τυγχάνει ὢν ἀκολουθήσειαν αὐτῷ.
