Inanition
Inanition is exhaustion from lack of nourishment; starvation.
Facing inanition, four lepers opted to enter the enemy Araemean camp as they felt they had nothing to lose.
"If we say, 'We will enter the city,' then the famine is in the city and we will die there; and if we sit here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they spare us, we will live; and if they kill us, we will but die." (II Kings 7:4, NASB)
The lepers found the encampment abandoned.
