H477
Now Elisha
H1696
had spoken
H802
to the woman,
H1121
whose son
H2421
he had restored to life,
H559
saying,
H6965
"Arise,
H3212
and go,
H1004
you and your household,
H1481
and stay
H834
for a while wherever
H1481
you can;
H3068
for Yahweh
H7121
has called
H7458
for a famine.
H935
It shall also come
H776
on the land
H7651
seven
H8141
years."
2
H802
The woman
H6965
arose,
H6213
and did
H1697
according to the word
H376
of the man
H430
of God.
H3212
She went
H1004
with her household,
H1481
and lived
H776
in the land
H6430
of the Philistines
H7651
seven
H8141
years.
3
H7651
It happened at the seven
H8141
years'
H7097
end,
H802
that the woman
H7725
returned
H776
out of the land
H6430
of the Philistines.
H3318
Then she went forth
H6817
to cry
H4428
to the king
H1004
for her house
H7704
and for her land.
4
H4428
Now the king
H1696
was talking
H1522
with Gehazi
H5288
the servant
H376
of the man
H430
of God,
H559
saying,
H5608
"Please tell
H1419
me all the great things
H477
that Elisha
H6213
has done."
5
H5608
It happened, as he was telling
H4428
the king
H2421
how he had restored
H2421
to life
H4191
him who was dead,
H802
that behold, the woman,
H1121
whose son
H2421
he had restored to life,
H6817
cried
H4428
to the king
H1004
for her house
H7704
and for her land.
H1522
Gehazi
H559
said,
H113
"My lord,
H4428
O king,
H802
this is the woman,
H1121
and this is her son,
H477
whom Elisha
H2421
restored to life."
6
H4428
When the king
H7592
asked
H802
the woman,
H5608
she told
H4428
him. So the king
H5414
appointed
H259
to her a certain
H5631
officer,
H559
saying,
H7725
"Restore
H8393
all that was hers, and all the fruits
H7704
of the field
H3117
since the day
H5800
that she left
H776
the land, even until now."
7
H477
Elisha
H935
came
H1834
to Damascus;
H1130
and Benhadad
H4428
the king
H758
of Syria
H2470
was sick.
H5046
It was told
H559
him, saying,
H376
"The man
H430
of God
H935
has come
H2008
here."
8
H4428
The king
H559
said
H2371
to Hazael,
H3947
"Take
H4503
a present
H3027
in your hand,
H3212
and go,
H7125
meet
H376
the man
H430
of God,
H1875
and inquire
H3068
of Yahweh
H559
by him, saying,
H2421
‘Will I recover
H2483
from this sickness?'"
9
H2371
So Hazael
H3212
went
H7125
to meet
H3947
him, and took
H4503
a present
H3027
with him,
H2898
even of every good thing
H1834
of Damascus,
H705
forty
H1581
camels'
H4853
burden,
H935
and came
H5975
and stood
H6440
before
H559
him, and said,
H1121
"Your son
H1130
Benhadad
H4428
king
H758
of Syria
H7971
has sent
H559
me to you, saying,
H2421
‘Will I recover
H2483
from this sickness?'"
10
H477
Elisha
H559
said
H3212
to him, "Go,
H559
tell
H2421
him, ‘You shall surely
H2421
recover;'
H3068
however Yahweh
H7200
has shown
H4191
me that he shall surely
H4191
die."
11
H5975
He settled
H6440
his gaze
H7760
steadfastly
H954
on him, until he was ashamed.
H376
Then the man
H430
of God
H1058
wept.
12
H2371
Hazael
H559
said,
H1058
"Why do you weep,
H113
my lord?"
H559
He answered,
H3045
"Because I know
H7451
the evil
H6213
that you will do
H1121
to the children
H3478
of Israel.
H7971
You will set
H4013
their strongholds
H784
on fire,
H2026
and you will kill
H970
their young men
H2719
with the sword,
H7376
and will dash
H5768
in pieces their little ones,
H1234
and rip up
H2030
their women with child."
13
H2371
Hazael
H559
said,
H5650
"But what is your servant,
H3611
who is but a dog,
H6213
that he should do
H1419
this great
H1697
thing?"
H477
Elisha
H559
answered,
H3068
"Yahweh
H7200
has shown
H4428
me that you will be king
H758
over Syria."
14
H3212
Then he departed
H477
from Elisha,
H935
and came
H113
to his master,
H559
who said
H477
to him, "What did Elisha
H559
say
H559
to you?" He answered,
H559
"He told
H2421
me that you would surely
H2421
recover."
15
H4283
It happened on the next day,
H3947
that he took
H4346
a thick cloth,
H2881
dipped
H4325
it in water,
H6566
and spread
H6440
it on his face,
H4191
so that he died.
H2371
Then Hazael
H4427
reigned in his place.
16
H2568
In the fifth
H8141
year
H3141
of Joram
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel,
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H4428
being king
H3063
of Judah
H3088
then, Jehoram
H1121
the son
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H4427
began to reign.
17
H7970
He was thirty -
H8147
two
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427
when he began to reign.
H4427
He reigned
H8083
eight
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem.
18
H3212
He walked
H1870
in the way
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel,
H6213
as did
H1004
the house
H256
of Ahab;
H1323
for he had the daughter
H256
of Ahab
H802
as wife.
H6213
He did
H7451
that which was evil
H5869
in the sight
H3068
of Yahweh.
19
H3068
However Yahweh
H14
would
H7843
not destroy
H3063
Judah,
H1732
for David
H5650
his servant's
H559
sake, as he promised
H5414
him to give
H5216
to him a lamp
H1121
for his children
H3117
always.
20
H3117
In his days
H123
Edom
H6586
revolted
H3027
from under the hand
H3063
of Judah,
H4427
and made
H4428
a king over themselves.
21
H3141
Then Joram
H5674
passed over
H6811
to Zair,
H7393
and all his chariots
H6965
with him: and he rose
H3915
up by night,
H5221
and struck
H123
the Edomites
H5437
who surrounded
H8269
him, and the captains
H7393
of the chariots;
H5971
and the people
H5127
fled
H168
to their tents.
22
H123
So Edom
H6586
revolted
H3027
from under the hand
H3063
of Judah
H3117
to this day.
H3841
Then Libnah
H6586
revolted
H1931
at the same
H6256
time.
23
H3499
The rest
H1697
of the acts
H3141
of Joram,
H6213
and all that he did,
H3789
aren't they written
H5612
in the book
H1697
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah?
24
H3141
Joram
H7901
slept
H1
with his fathers,
H6912
and was buried
H1
with his fathers
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David;
H274
and Ahaziah
H1121
his son
H4427
reigned in his place.
25
H6240
In the twelfth
H8141
year
H3141
of Joram
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel,
H274
Ahaziah
H1121
the son
H3088
of Jehoram
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H4427
began to reign.
26
H6242
Twenty -
H8147
two
H8141
years
H1121
old
H274
was Ahaziah
H4427
when he began to reign;
H4427
and he reigned
H259
one
H8141
year
H3389
in Jerusalem.
H517
His mother's
H8034
name
H6271
was Athaliah
H1323
the daughter
H6018
of Omri
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel.
27
H3212
He walked
H1870
in the way
H1004
of the house
H256
of Ahab,
H6213
and did
H7451
that which was evil
H5869
in the sight
H3068
of Yahweh,
H1004
as did the house
H256
of Ahab;
H2860
for he was the son-in-law
H1004
of the house
H256
of Ahab.
28
H3212
He went
H3141
with Joram
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H4421
to war
H2371
against Hazael
H4428
king
H758
of Syria
H7433
at Ramoth Gilead:
H761
and the Syrians
H5221
wounded
H3141
Joram.
29
H4428
King
H3141
Joram
H7725
returned
H7495
to be healed
H3157
in Jezreel
H4347
of the wounds
H761
which the Syrians
H5221
had given
H7414
him at Ramah,
H3898
when he fought
H2371
against Hazael
H4428
king
H758
of Syria.
H274
Ahaziah
H1121
the son
H3088
of Jehoram
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H3381
went down
H7200
to see
H3141
Joram
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H3157
in Jezreel,
H2470
because he was sick.
